Backstock lifted his head with an
effort.

voice, and: "Help!" in feebler

CHAPTER xvII.-(continued.)

Almost beside himself, Coast re-
tanned sufficient presence of mind to
recognize his golden chance. Drop
ping his club, he went to his knees
a. Blackstocks side and with swift,
sure hands rifled his pockets, pos
sessing himself OF the pistol which
had been taken from him, or its
counterpart. Duly, while thus en-
ployed, he was aware of a shout and
a scream, oddly blended. The fear of
Chang uppermost IN his conscious
ness, he jumped to his feet, armed
and alert, and whirled about.
But everything had taken place 80
swiftly and with so little warning,
that the Chinaman, quick though he
was to take the alarm and start at
top speed for the scene Of the strug-
gle, was still many yards distant
when Coast arose, without a scruple
leaving Blackstock at the mercy Of
the dog
He saw Chang coming and saw him
stop and level a revolver. Stimuli
taneously he heard a shot-but from
another quarter and another weapon
than the Chinaman's. The latter,
cleaning in the half light, suddenly
flew out of his hand and T. one side,
falling in shallow water, while Chang
grabbed his right hand with his left
and doubled like a jackknife over II,
screaming with agony. In mute
amaze, Coast, seeking the source of
this timely assistance, discovered
Katherine standing with her revolver
still uplifted, halfway between the
Cold LARS and the beached catboat.
He marvelled at her. In this mo-
ment OF trial and terror, she retained
her wits and courage In a manner
calculated to command the homage of
a veteran of many wars. The instan~
