lows scattered over the domain, where
host OF guests could be entertained
in comfort. Griswoid reflected that
the very fact that he had wired from
Columbia must have intimated to Ard
more that his friend was flying to
ward him, pursuant to the Atlanta in
vitation. Griswold dismissed a thou
sand speculations as unworthy. Ard
more had never shown the remotest
trace of snobbishness. and as far as
the threatened house party was con-
cerned Griswold knew Mrs Atchison
very well, and had been entertained at
her New York house.
The patronizing tone of the thing
caused Griswold to flush at every
reading. If the Ardsley date line had
not been SO plainly written; If the
phraseology were not so characteris-
tic. there might be room for doubt;
but Ardmore-Ardmore. of all men,
had slapped him in the face!
But. scarlet fever or no scarlet
fever, the pursuit of Appleweight had
precedence of private grievances. By
the time he reached Turner Court
House Griswold had dismissed the
ungraciousness of Ardmore, and his
jaws were set with determination
to perform the mission intrusted to
him by Barbara Osborne, and to wait
until later for an accounting with his
unaccountable friend.
Arrived at Turner's, Griswold
strode at once toward the courthouse.
The contemputuous rejection of his
message by the sheriff of Mingo had
angered Griswold, but he was destined
to feel even more poignant insolence
when, entering the sheriff's office. a
deputy, languidly posed as a letter

on the mantel, took a cob pipe from
his mouth and lazily answered Girls

Griswold, hot of heart, but maintain

SO formidable in cross-examination.

hills and through valleys, and beside
CHEEKY creeks and brooks. 1t was
known that a strange man from Co
lumbia was in Mingo county looking
for the sheriff, and Appleweight, alias
Poteet, and his men were everywhere
on guard.
Griswold liked the prosecuting at

SAVED FROM THE TIDE.

At the opening Of our story we find
before us a meeting of a Board of
Trustees in a little village hall. The
meeting has been called for the pur-
pose of appointing a new school
teacher. Dick BurIey has just been
discharged owing to the rough and I'M
couth manner of his treatment Of the
pupils. In spite Of this he is seeking
re-appointment, and much to his cha
grin, young Tom Burton is elected in
his stead. Furious with rage at this
humiliation, Burley determines to be
reYenged on his successful rival. We
use tie term successful" advisedly,
for not only has Tom secured the posi-
ton of village school teacher, but he
has won the heart of Gertrude Wig
gins, the prettiest girl in the vicinity,
and of whom Burley was much en-
amored
Now, on one occasion, Burley, a bit
under the influence of liquor, makes
some sighting remark about the girl
who has turned from him to his rival.
The two men almost come to blows
but are happily interrupted by the wo-
men present; and thus We see their
enmity grow. ~
Eventually, To1 Iced down tc
the beach. His NJ her and sweetheart
plead with him not to endanger him
self by going, but he, in the strong
pride of his young manhood, shows
them the insulting note he has re-
ceived, and leaves them.
AS the scene changes we see the
two rivals in a fierce hand to hand
fight, the ocean surf rolling in at their
very feet. Tom is finally victorious,
but as he rises from the PROSTATE form
of his enemy, one of the latter's
friends, Ralph Matthews, strikes him
an ugly blow on the head with heavy
piece Of timber which renders him IN
conscious.
At once the entire party of men are
horror stricken for they believe hin
dead. They know not what to do, un-
til BurIey, more reckless than the rest,
suggests that they place him where
the tide, on rising, will carry him out
to sea, thus effacing any evidences of
their guilt
The suggestion is acted upon and
we see the helpless victim with the
waves gradually creeping towards him.
In the meantime, out heroine, Gertie,
frenzied at the long absence of her
young lover, tells the marshal and
others of her fear Of foul treatment.
A search is begun, and Matthews is
caught, and upon being threatened,
confesses as to where Tom is, but
claims that the blow was accidental.
1t is no wonder that upon the hearing
of this Gertie leaps on a horse and
starts mad chase in search of her
future husband But she is not alone
in the rescue, for soon we see four
friends of the unfortunate (who is fast
becoming submerged, driving a team
at breakneck speed in hopes of reach
ing him in time.
