CHAPTER xix.-contInued.

"liave you got everything ready. DR..
Nevinson?" asked the earl.
Everything. my lord" replied the
doctor, gravely. II hope. however,
that you gentlemen will give me little
to do"
Strathgate laughed again.
III 1t depends on me. doctor, you'll
have nothing to do but certify to q
death"
II didn't mean It that way, my
lord" said the doctor. gravely.
But ! do" asserted S~trathgate,
turning away.
Every word OF the conversation had
been heard by Ellen and Deborah. The
whole situation was now clear to
them both. This was to be a duel.
Darlington and Strathgate were to
meet. ~Strathgate's deadly purpose
was evident from his grim remark to
the surgeon. Ellen could not doubt
but that Darlington shared the same
ruthless feeling to the full. He was
coming to battle about her. Her
heart leaped at first at the thought
and then contracted like a lump OF ice
at the possibility OF disaster and
death which lay before the man she
loved.
Her first impulse was to rise, dash
into the clearing and denounce Strath.
gate, but a second thought assured her
Of tho folly Of that purpose. Those
men wore bent on fighting. They
would only fight the harder and more
iercely II she interfered. She would
simply be removed from the scene Of
action and the duel would go on.
The situation was an i~ntolerable
one whichever way she turned, what.
ever she did. That she should lie
quiet In q thicket and watch her hus.
band fight for his life was unbearablo.
That she should burst out and inter.
rupt them and then simply be removed
and the battle DO waged the more
hercely was also uncomfortable. Yet,
she would have chosen the latter
course had 1t not come across her
mind like Q fash OF intuition, that her
appearance at that juncture would
probably greatly agitate her husband,
and that his chance for life would be
worse In that he would be less cool
than Strathgate. She had sense
enough to see that Strathgate would
welcome her arrival. and how easily
he could turn It to his own advantage
by claiming. in spite Of any protest
she might make. that she was there
by her contrivance and at Strath.
gates request.
She dug her feet into the ground
and locked her teeth In anguish. The
sweat stood out on her brow. But
there was nothing to do but lie still
and keep watch.
1t was Debbie who broke the silence
by approaching her ear and whisper.
ing:
Lord strathgate Ia going to fight q
duel with Lord Darlington. Let 10 90

I'VE can't" answered Ellen. "'Tii

Are you going to lie here and

Whirlwind work and skiIIfuI Ma

~ Points TO II.

The most exciting game Of basketball
ever played IN True Reformers' Hall was
Witnessed last night. when the junior
Smart Set team. OF Brooklyn. y. Y. met
end defeated the local Crescent team by
the score OF = 70 L.
The contest was somewhat evenly
waged in the hrst half, the two teams
running neck and neck. alternating BY
one score, first IN favor Of one and then
the other
The entire scene was reversed in the
very beginning OF the second half. when
the visitors easily demonstrated their
superiority over the local boys
About three goals In rapid succession
took all the basketball notions out OF
the Crescehts. ana then IL was that the
Smart Set showed the local champs what
basketball really is
The game proved u. the end a mere
practice exhibition fos the visitors. as
they tossed goals and confused their op-
poneuts at viii
The Crescents at times could not even
touch the ball. neither in the play nor in
the toss-up. and now they can plainly
see that they did not know the game
for basketball IN New York and the
same game in Washington don't look
Ike the same thing.
Aside from team work. the individual
play Of the Smart Set was something
marvellous. There was not a single man
on the team who could not play an
around any two OF three Of the men on
the local team.
Although the Juniors were lighter BY
rar than the locals, yet their nimbieness
was one OF the most important factors in
this game that showed the Crescents m
