The shores drew rapidly together;
They were leaving the lake-like ex-

heard the first fret of the river against

The ceaseless murmur OF the rusn

Kentucklan's pulse quickened. Would
he find the raft there? He glanced
back over the way they had come
The dark ranks of the forest walled
on the clearing, but across the water
a dim point of light was visible. He

the head of the bayou. Apparently 1t
was a lantern, but as he looked a

From the bow Bunker had been OBJ

Suddenly he bent and reused Slos-

Bunker pointed without speaking.

His promptness had bred momen-

the end of which the Swiss customs
house comes into sight.
From Chaux lie Fonds we could only
crawl for the rest of the way into
Neuchatel, for the road is very steep
over the Col des Loges, and then
comes a long winding, and in parts
rapid, descent to Bondevillers aud
Valengin, with numerous sharp cor
ners and tunnels cut in the rock.
From Neuchatel to Zurich is an
easy days run; but in Switzerland
one must always remember to allow
about double the time taken to cover
the same distance in any other coun-
try. The speed limits are absurdly
low in the towns and villages, and as
the country is thickly populated and
there are seldom more than few
kilometres without houses, travelling
becomes somewhat lengthy pro-
ceeding. Very heavy fines are i'm
posed for noncompliance with regu-
lations, and every minute large pla-
cards greet the eye with HAT! Autos

Swiss, and one has to get accustomed
to hearing Halt" yelled out con-
stantly, while the angry looks of the

The Raft Again.

selves on the sweeps and worked the
raft clear of the keel boat then the
turbulent current seized the smaller
craft and whirled it away into the
night; as It's black bulk receded from

nate privilege to sustain the onslaught
Of the Earl OF Lambeth
The light from the Cavendish
hearth continued to brighten the
scene, for Polly was recklessly sac
rificing her best straw tick. Indeed
her behavior was in every way worthy
of the noble alliance she had formed.
Her cob-pipe was not suffered to go
out and with Comics help she kept
ing life and limb in the keel boat, to-
ward which they were powerfully
drawn. Despite these activities she
found time to call to Betty and Han
nibal on the cabin roof
Jump down here; that amt no fit
tin place for yoa-aN tc stop In with
them gentlemen fightin'!"
An instant later Betty and Hanni-
bal stood on the raft with the little
Cavendishes focking about them. Mr..
Yancy's quest Of his neVvy had taken
an enduring hold on their magma
ton For weeks it had constituted
their one vital topic, and the fight be-
came merely satisfying background
for this interesting restoration.
"Sho, they'd got him! Sho he

glance toward the keel boat. Cant

She accurately Judged the outcome

pushed open by Betty and the boy,
and again he called to them to escape
by the skiff. The fret Of the current
had grown steadily and from beneath
the wide-fung branches of the trees
rington caught sight of the star
specked arch OF the heavens beyond.
They were issuing from the bayou.
He felt the river snatch at the keel
boat, the buffeting of some swift eddy,
and saw the blunt bow swing off to
the south as they were plunged into
the black shore shadows.
But what he did not see was big
muscular hand which had thrust itself
out of the impenetrable gloom and
clutched the side of the keel boat. Co
incident with this there arose per-
feet babel of voices, high-pitched and
shrill
"Sho'-I bet it's him Sho'-it's I'm
Gle Bobs nevvy! Sho'. you can hear
EN-! Sho', they're shootin' guns
Shot,
Darlington cast a hurried glance in
the direction of these sounds. There
between the boat and the shore the
dim outline of raft was taking shape.
1t was now canopied by wealth OF
pale gray smoke that faded from be-
fore his eyes as the darkness lifted.
The light increased. From the fiat
stone hearth of the raft ascended a
tall column Of flame which rendered
visible six pigmy figures, tow-headed
and wonderfully vocal, who were toll
ing like mad at the huge sweeps. The
light showed more than this 1t
showed lady of plump and pleasing
presence smoking cob-pipe while she
fed the fire from tick stuffed with
straw. 1t showed two bark shanties,
line between them decorated with
|. the never-ending Cavendish wash. 1t
showed a rooster perched on the
ridge-pole of one of these shanties In
the very act of Growing Justify.
Hannibal, who had climbed to the
roof of the cabin, shrieked for help,
and Betty added her voice to his.
"All right, Nevvy!" came the cheer
full reply, as Yancy threw himself
over the side of the boat and Crap
pied with Slosson
Uncle Bob! Uncle Bob!" cried
Hannibal.
Slosson uttered cry of terror He
had a simple but sincere faith in the
supernatural, and even with the
Scratch Killers big hands gripping
his throat, he could not rid himself OF
the belief that this was the ghost OF
a murdered man.
You'll take a dogs licking from
me, neighbour said Yancy grimly. Il

Meanwhile Mr. Cavendish, whose
proud spirit never greatly inclined
him to the practice of peace, had pre-
pared for battle. Springing aloft he
knocked his heels together
"Whoop! I'm man as can slide
down a thorny locust and never get
scratched" he shouted. This was
equivalent to setting his triggers;
then he launched himself nimbly and
with enthusiasm into the thick of the
fight 1t was Mr. Bunker's unfortu-
