To his dismay he found that the
engine was losing ground. The space
was widening rapidly as Barcus re-
leased the knob and threw himself
over the rail-
BY miraculous. flying leap. the man
accomplished that Incredible feat and
gained the platform.
An instant later ten feet separated
the engine from the special. as the
engineer applied the brakes.
And this no did none too soon: for
at the same time Marrophat and

to the widening distance, Intellectual

The engine ground slowly to a halt
as the rear lights of the special train
swept from sight round a bend.
For once. in a way, 1t fell out pre-
cisely as Mr.. Law had planned and
prayed.
Constrained to pull up in order to
remove the obstruction from the track,
the train crew of the freight choked
down its collective wrath on being
presented with sum OF money. In the
hopes of further largesse 1t lent It's
common ear to Alan's well-worn tale.
which had go frequently proved USE
full in similar emergencies, OF an elop-
ing couple pursued by an unreasoning-
~ dindictive parent: and had It's hopes
rewarded by the price Alan bargained
10 pay1in exchange for exclusive use
OF the caboose as far as the next town.
So that l. was not more than ten
minutes before Rose was settled to rest
In such comfort the caboose af-
fordcd. while Alan and Barcus sat
within its doorway and smoked, mutely
specializing on the length OF time that
would elapse before the special train
again appeared-and whether they
dared hone its occupants would fail 10
notice tho abandoned hand car and
draw the logical inference.
1t WAS hope too feeble to bear de-
bate: they nursed II with savage ten
derness. in silence.
An hour passed without event. Even
Ing drew its shades athwart that bar
rem and inhospitable waste OF tumbled
hills and arid plains. The freight
trudgcd onward at It's accustomed pace,
WITH an air Of infinite freedom from the
goad OF haste. a brakeman climbed
back over the cars. lighted and hung
our the rear lanterns. tarricd q time to
he sociablc. and returned as he had
come.
Neither he nor any other aboard the
freight suspected for an instant that,
in the box car next forward OF the
caboose, woman In mans clothing lay
pcrdue, now and again chuckling imp
ishly to herself In anticipation of the
time and the event she was hiding with
such patience as she could muster
time and event alike being hidden from
her understanding. She knew no more
or these than that the one must surely
come in it's fulness, and that when that
happened she would be there TO con-
trive the Other and bring confusion
like 4 ,hunderboit down upon the heads
OF those three innocents In the caboose
---else her name was not Urine and her
nature not that of Judith!
Oh. most assuredly the time would
come! Mark how events already-had
played into her hands: how Barcus had
held her prlsonc: IN thc~compartment
long enough TO permit her hurriedly
10 change from her proper dress to 4
suit OF Marrophat's; how her father
had welcomed her and taken her dom
Ming that attire, in earnest OF her vow
TO him never again to weaken In the
business he required of her. though Its
execution would rend In twain the
heart in her bosom; how she had per-
suaded the train crew ofItbc special to
abandon the Pullman, that Marrophat
might have time TO catch UP With the
light engine; how the freight, paus-
ing at the siding, had afforded her an
opportunity to board II unseen, after
escaping the special through the
broken window of the drawing room
this that she might be hot upon the
trail OF the fugltives II by any chance
Marrophat should fail his employer:
and how she had thus been able to be
aboard the very train>upon which they
rested In fancied security!
