he assume his hopes fulfilled?
With difaculty he detached his hungry vision
from her, and drawing from his pocket Q small
notebook, tore out q blank page placed this fat
on the grder, found pencil. and with the assist
ance Of a ray or two Of moonlight scrawled mes
sage Of almost stenographic brevity.
When he looked up from this task, she had van
ished. .....
Sitting up, astride the girder, he took his watch

himself in the garments Of civilized society, at
Providence, that mornng-opened the back of the

Then drawing back his arm, he breathed q ST.

It from him with all his mght-with such force
that 1t almost unseated him at the end Of the
swing. But nothing less would have served to
bridge that yswning chasm.
And the watch few straight and true, squarely
through the lighted window and to the further
wall
\In that very instant Of his exultation over an
OF heavy breathing.
The assassin had come that close upon his prey
when Alan turned and discovered his peril.
The same moonbeam which had aided Alan in
the composition Of his message struck across the
others face, and showed 1t like hideous Chinese
mask of deadly hatred, with Its eyeballs glaring
and its lips drawn back from the naked blade
gripped between its teeth-stiletto nothing short
of foot in length.
With sharp startled movement Alan swung
himself bodily about that, seated again astride
the girder he faced the assassin who sat up, strad
ling the girder his feet hooked beneath it. and the
stiletto poised in a lifted hand.
But even now Alan was in little or no better case
than before. II he faced the thug, he faced him

And espionage all he feared-save and ex
cept always, of course, failure to find his Rose.
1t was about one in the morning when he ar
rived inconspicuously Cbut not much as to
seem deserving Of police surveillance) in the
neghborhood Of the Riverside drive home of his
mortal enemy, q grim white house that lowered
stark and tall, upon a corner.
His preliminary reconnaissance provided little
more than comfortless exercise Huge, still. its
wall bathed in the milk and ink of moonlight and
shadow, all its windows dark but one-and that
one in the topmost tier showed only feeble glim-
mer, SO slight that Alan almost overlooked 1t.
But once discovered 1t focused upon itself his
thoughts with power little less than hypnotic.
He believed with small doubt that Rose was a
prisoner within those walls; that Judith must have
conveyed her there with all speed.
And, this being the presumptive case, that small
high window of the light might well be hers
Directly across the street from the Trine resi-
dence, the opposite corner, colossal apartment
structure stood halffnished stonework to its sec
ond story gaunt iron skeleton rearing above.
To his infinite disgust, Alan found the guardian
very wide awake, very much on the job: no chance
here to steal unseen into the building.
This in itself might have been deemed a
picious circumstance: not for nothing does an hon
est night watchman deny the laws OF nature and
the tenets Of his craft. But Alan merely praised
the man while cursing the very fact Of his exist
what seemed an uncommonly stubborn reluctance,
and got his way.
He could not know that another skulked behind
a barrier of lime barrels and overheard all that
passed and when Alan had ducked smartly into
the unfinished building, rose and stole after him
with footsteps as noiseless as a cats and face
that had the savagery of tigers when it was
transiently relieved in a shaft Of moonlight.
At length Alan gained the gridiron Of girders
on plane with the lighted window across the way,
and crept along one Of these, gngerly his hands
and knees, until he came 70 its end and might II
he cared to, look down hundred feet to the side
walks.
That view, however, did not tempt; he kept his
eyes level; and was rewarded with q bare glimpse
, Of prettiy-papered wall, framed in the lace of
haltdrawn curtains.
And Of sudden-whether through fortuty, or in
stnct, the psychological attraction Of his stead
fast concentration-the tenant Of the room came
20 the window and stood there for little, looking
pensvely out, altogether unconscious Of the watch

with no arms other than his bare hands. He had
not even a pen-knife in his pockets.
With low cry of desperation he snatched OF
his hat, soft and shapeless felt affair." and flung
it squarely in the fellows face.
Before he could recover-before, that is, 1t
dropped away and cleared his vision, Alan had bent
forward and grasped the wrist Of the hand that
held the knife.
He snatched simultaneously at the other hand,
but II eluded him.
Immediately the two became engaged in a fu-
rfous contest for possession of the stiletto.
Alan had this advantage, as long as the knife
might not strike-that his right arm was Free
while the assassin had only his left. With this he
strove persstently to reach his knifehand and pos
himself Of the weapon. AS persistently Alan
foiled his purpose by dragging the knfe-hand
toward him and swinging it far out to one side.
At the same time he struck repeatedly with his
censhed fist at the others face. His blows did
little damage beyond dsconcerting the other; but
this proved very considerable factor in the duel
In the end, they Served together with that steady
resistlessly downward and outward drag, to break
the grip Of the mans locked legs.
Abruptly he pitched forward on his face along
the girder kicking wildly. grasping at the air. The
stetto fell from an instinctively relaxed grasp,
and disappeared And before Alan could release
his hold, ease the strain upon the right arm Of
the assassin, this last had slipped bodily from the
girder and hung helpless in space dangling at the
end of Alan's arm-with more than the grip of
five fingers between him and death.
The shock Of that unpresaged turn brought Alan
forward and fiat on his stomach. And the strain
