NATURAL QUERY.

Miss Muf1itt had recently Joined the
Band OF Sisters for Befriending Burg
lars, and was being shown over a
prison for the first time.
One prisoner, evidently man OF ed
ucation, interested her more than the
others. He rose and bowed to her
when she entered his cell. apologizing
for the poorness of his apartment
Miss Muffitt could not help wonder
ing how this refined man came within
the clutches of the law. In fact, as
she was leaving the cell, she said:
May l ask why you are in this dis
tressing placer"
Madam" he replied, Il am here for
robbery at a seaside hotel"

Muffitt. Were you-er-the proprie-

lently for help to come, but she was
still alone. Already she was giving
up hope from that quarter and was
conscious that upon her own efforts
in all probability the very life of the
man she loved would depend. TO add
to her anguish was the fear that he
might regain consciousness and be-
tray himself by moan
Now it all depended upon Little
Ella. 1t had been clever stroke,
that of Ryan's, asking her how she
would be treated in this woman's
home. Against this appeal to class

This threat had An unpleasant
sound. Hitherto the girl had not
feared for her own safety. but his
surly remark frightened her. The one
shing that kept her steadfast was the
thought that she was protecting the
man she had loved, yes. the man she
now loved more than she ever had.
She did not know how he happened to
be there; she did not know how he
regarded her; she only knew that she
loved him. that she would give her
life sacrifice to save him.
Ryan next appealed to Little Ella.
Ella, that guy come In here. Where
is he? We amt goin' to be scared
by any fool girl. She don't know who
wants him. Now give i'm up"
Don't say a word" Gloria told her.
You gotta stick by US, Ella. This
amt no ordinary job"
At Ryan's injunction to stick by
him. Little Ella seemed to waver.
Don't you fergit who yer friends
are. Who keeps you from bein'
iugged? Mike Noonan. Who lets you
stay here when you can't pay. an
feeds you, Mike Noonan."
That's so. He has been good to

Gloria was quick to catch the note
of indecision. But now I'm going TO

CHAPTER Xxx.

II Gloria believed that she had put
to flight for all time such gentlemanly
assassins as Mr. Kelly and Mr. Ryan,
her feeling OF triumph did not last
long. AS the door into the hall was
still open she did not dare make a
move in Wrght's direction. She de-
termined to close the door and pull

she walked toward the door, it again

snarled

Ryan added doggedly. I'VE don't

but we gotta git that man"
The way he said it made Gloria feel
that he meant business. All she could
do was play for time and pray for
Mrs. Hayes to return.
There's no man here" she ex-
planned In her most winning manner

Its man He's hurt" she called
back to the sick woman as she knelt
to examine him.
He had fallen so that she could not
get a good look at him in the dark
hallway. and she rolled him toward
the door to get him on his back and
see his face. AS she gaZed upon his
countenance the fingers OF death itself
seemed TO seize her by the throat Her
heart gave one great leap and then
stood still On the floor before her
lay the body OF the man she loved

doing here? Joe, Joe. speak to me-"
But there was no answer. His eyes
were closed. and the pallor of death
seemed to be upon his face.
With strength beyond what she had
ever known herself to possess Gloria
seized the motionless form and dragged
and rolled the man into Little Ella s
room Before she turned TO him again
she closed and bolted the door Then
she bent over him and begged him to
speak to her, TO open his eyes and
know that she was with him.
Joe, don't you know me?" she
pleaded. Then TO Little Ella, He's
dead. he's dead See. he doesn't

And then interrupted another voice
with a suggestion that made Gloria
grow faint
"Aw. Let's bust it in. He's in there
all right"
Let er 60" answered the frs,

Then came the heavy thuds as the
men threw themselves against the
door. The knocking at the gate In
Macbeth" had no more portentious
sound in the play than had this at
tack upon her stronghold to Gloria
She felt all the nervousness of troops
under fire that must remain INACTIVE
awaiting orders. There was nothing
she could do but wait until the door
was battered down.
This was not long in happening. As
she stood in front OF the trunk ner-
vousIy twisting her handkerchief in
the bolt yielded. the door flew open
and two men stumbled into the room
Little Ella recognized them both in
stantly. They were Buck Kelly and
Turkey Ryan, notorious denizens Of
the underworld. If ever there were
two vicious-looking cutthroats, these
men answered their descriptions. To
make their ruftianly appearance worse
they bore the marks of their recent
encounter Kelly's left eye had
swelled almost closed, and Ryan had
long cut across his cheek where
Wright's ring had left its mark with a
slashing blow He had done even more
damage than this, but these showed
the plainest Needless to say, their
tempers had not been sweetened by
the episode
Now, damn you" Ryan began
savagely.
"Stop!" Gloria commanded What

aback To find a lady there was
something they had not expected.

checked himself and then continued
in slightly more respectful tone. Il

That's none of your business. You

did with her most strident tones.

it was not this TRADE which had the
most effect upon them. Both quailed
before Gloria, who stood eyeing them
sternly. Then they looked at each
other and without word of apology
