Then presently the young man turned
again to Mary and took her hand in
his. The shock of the event had some
how steadied him, since it had drawn
his thoughts from that other more
engrossing mood of concern over the
crisis in his own life. After all. what
mattered the death of this crook? his
fancy ran. The one thing of real
worth in all the world was the life
that remained to be lived between
him and her. Then, violently.
the selfishness of his mood was made
plain to him. For the hand he held
was shaking like some slender stalked
lily in the clutch of the sirocco. Even
as he first perceived the fact he saw
the girl stagger. His arm swept
about her in yirile protecting en-
brace--just in time, or she would have
fallen.
A whisper came from her quivering
lips. Her face was close TO his, else
he could not have caught the uncer-
tain murmuring That face now was
become ghastly pale The violet eyes
were widened and dull. The muscles
of her face twitched. She rested SUI
pinely against him, as If bereft of any
strength of body or of soul. Yet, in
the Intensity of her utterance, the
feeble whisper struck like a shrek of
horror.
"I-I-never saw any one killed
before.''
The simple, grisly truth Of the
words--w that he might have
spoken as well--stirred the man to
the depths of his being. He shud-
dered AS he turned his eyes to avoid
seeing the thing that lay so very near,
mercifully merged within the shad-
ows beyond the gentle radiance from
the single lamp. With pang of in
finite pity for the woman in his arms
he apprehended in some degree the
torture this event must have inflicted
on her. Frightful to him, it must in
truth be vastly worse to her. There

there let her sink down in a huddled
attitude of despair
i never saw a man-killed before,"
she said again. There was a note of
half hysterical, almost childish COM
plaint in her voice. She moved her
head a little, as If to look into the
shadows where it lay, then checked
herself violently and looked up at her
husband with the pathetic simplicity
of terror.
You know. Dick she repeated
duly. II never saw man killed be-
FORE,
Before he could utter the soothing
words that rose to his lips. Dick was
interrupted by a slight sound at the
door. Instantly he was ali alert to
meet the exigencies of the situation.
He stood by the couch, bending for
ward little, as if in q posture of
intimate fondness. Then, with a new
thought, he got out his cigarette case
and lighted a cigarette, after which
he resumed his former leaning over
the woman as would the ardent lover.
He heard the noise again presently,
now so near that he made sure or
being overheard, so at once he spoke
with a forced cheerfulness in his i'm
fiection.

stress of this scene, Chicago Red had
never relaxed his professional cau-

ear, he had stopped, listening. Now,

Carson forgot his weapon in this

turned to Mary. His face was all

1t had been evil incarnate, aflame
with the lust to destroy. Come on,

Already Chicago Red had snapped
off the lights of the chandelier, had
sprung to the window, thrown open a
panel of it, and had vanished into the
night, with Dacey at his heels. As
Carson would have called out to the
girl again In mad anxiety for haste,
he was interrupted by Dick:

CHAPTER XyIII-Continued
On the instant, aware that further
subterfuge could be of no avail
Griggs staggered defiance.
And what If 1t is true?" he drawled
with resumption of his aristocratic
manner, while his eyes swept the
group balefully. He plucked the
police whistle from his waistcoat
pocket and raised it to his lips.
He moved too slowly. In the same
moment of his action, Carson had
pulled the pistol from his pocket. had
pressed the trigger. There came nc
squirt of flame. There was no sound
save perhaps a faint clicking noise
But the man with the whistle at his
lips suddenly ceased movement, stood
absolutely still for the space of q
breath. Then. he trembled horribly
and in the next instant crashed to the
floor. where he lay rigid. dead.
Damn you've got you" Carson
sneered through clenched teeth His
eyes were like balls of fire. There was

thing that had been done here before
their eyes There was, too, the fact
that the murderer himself had been
the man to whom she owed her life.
Yes, for him, Dick realized with poig

night was terrible, indeed; for her, as
he guessed now at last, the torture
must be something easily to over
