CHAPTER XIV.
A Test.

Du Sang had the sidewise gait of wolf. and crossed the street with the choppy walk of the man out of a long saddle. Being both uncertain and quick, he was a man 10 slip a trail easily. He travelled around the block and disappeared among the many open doors that blazed along Hill street. Less alert trailers than the two be. hind him would have been at fault. hut when he entered the place he wss locking for, Kennedy was so close that Du Sang could have spoken to him had he turned around.
 Kennedy passed directly ahead. A moment later Whispering Smith put his head inside the door of the joint Du Sang had entered. withdrew it, and, rejoining his companions, spoke in an undertone. "A negro dive; he's lying low Now we will keep our reg ular order. It's half-basement, with a bar on the left; crap games at the table behind the screen on the right. Kennedy, will you take the rear end of the bar? It covers the whole room and tka back door. George, pass in ahead of me and step just to the left uf the slot machine; you've got the front door there and everything be- hind the screen, and I can get close to Du Sang. Look for a thinnish, yellow faced c1an with a brown hat and brown shirt-and pink eyes-shoot- ing craps under this window. m shoot craps with him. Is your heart pump ing, George? Never mind this is easy! Farrell, you're first!"
 The dive, badly lighted and venti ated, was counted tough among tough places White men and colored mixed before the bar and about the tables. When Smith stepped around the screen and into the flare of the hang ing lamps. Du Sang stood in the small corner below the screened street win dow McCloud. though vitally inter- ested in looking at the man that had come to town to kill him. felt his at tention continually wandering back to Wh spering Smith. The chatter of the rolling dice, the guttural jargon of the negro gamblers. the drift of men to and from the bar, and the clouds of tobacco smoke made hay background for the stoop-shouldered man with his gray hat and shabby coat, dust-coyered and travel-stained. Industriously licking the broken wrap per of a cheap cigar and rolling it fondly under his forefinger he was making his way unosteni atiously to- wari Du Sang. Thirty-odd men were in the saloon, but only two knew what the storm center moging slowly across the room might develop. Ken nedy, seeing everything and talking
 leasantly with one of the barkeepers. his close-set teeth gleaming 20 feet away, stood at the end of the bar slid ing an empty glass between his hands. Whispering Smith pushed past the on lockers to get to the end of the table where Du Sang was shooting. He msde no effort to attract Du Sang's attention, and when the latter looked up he could have pulled the gray hat from the head of the man whose brown eyes were mildly fixed on Du Sang's dice: they were lying just in front of Smith.
