 "What!" he taunted her-"again? ?.
 Think what you like!" she cried in a frenzy. You saved me once-now spare you. We're quits. But next time"
 "O-rot!" he interjected "You will never have the courage to pull that trigger when I'm helpless in your hands!"
 The hot blood mantled her exquisite face like red fire. She caught her breath with a sob, then flung wildly at him:
 Well, if you must know-it's true. I cant bring myself to kill you. I would to God l could. But can't. For all that, you shall die1 could not save you if would! And this prom ise you-you shall never sec Rose again before you die!"
 And while he stood gaping. she swung from him and ran, quickly GOV. ering the little distance between him and the car.
 As she jumped into this and dropped down upon the seat beside her half, conscious sister, Marrophat swung the car away.
 It vanished in a dust-cloud as a throng of railroad employees surround. ed and assailed him with clamorous questions.

 From the bottom of the grade it swung away in a wide, graceful curve, bordered for some distance by railroad tracks on a slightly lc1er level.
 He had guessed tne fendish plan of the other driver only too truly.
 As they approached at express speed the stretch where the road par alleled the tracks Alan sought to hug the left-hand side of the road, but in vain.
 Roaring, with it's muffier cut out, the pursuing car swept up and bafiled him, bringing its right forward wheel up beside the left rear wheel of his car, then more slowly forging up until, with its weight, bulk and superior power, 1t forced him inch by inch to the right, toward the tracks, until his right-hand wheels left the road and ran on uneven turf, until the left-hand wheels as well lost grip on the road metal, until the car began to dip on the slope to the tracks.
 He heard the far hoot-toot of a freight locomotive

 Not much"
 The deep-throated roar of the loco motive believing danger silenced him. He closed his eyes.
 Then abruptly the weight was lifted from his chest. He saw a man drag ging Rose from under the machine. and saw that the man was Marrophat. And almost immediately someone lift. cd his head and shoulders, caught him with two hands beneath his arm pits and drew him clear of the machine.
 And the face of his rescuer was tho face of Judith Trine.
 The crash he had expected, of the car being crumpled up by the oncom- ing locomotive, did not follow.
 As he scrambled to his feet. his first glance was up the track. and discov. cred the train slowing to a halt.
 His next was one of wonder for the countenance of Judith Trine as she stood, at a little distance, regarding him; her look almost illegible. a curl. ous compound of passions coloring it. relief, regret, hatred. love
 His third glance deserted beyond her the figures of Marrophat carrying Rose in his arms, stumbling as he ran toward his car on the highroad.

 MT. Thomas Barcus picked himself up from the bottom of the lifeboat. where he had been violently precipi- tated by the impact of grounding, blinked and wiped tears of pain from his eyes, solictously tested his nose and seemed to derive little if any com fort from the discovery that it was not broken, opened his mouth and remembered the presence of lady.

 In the offing there was nothing but the flat, limitless expanee of the night bound tide, near at hand vaguely sill vered with the moonlight, in the dis tances blending into shadows; never a light or shadowy, stealing sail in that quarter to indicate pursuit.
 "Where are wei" he wondered aloud.
 Ask me an easy one." Barcus re- piled: somewhere on the south shore of the cape-unless somebody's been tampering with the lay of this land. That's lighthouse over wonder"
 Alan took soundings from the bows
 Barely two feet" he announced, withdrawing the oar from the water. 'and eel-grass no end"
 "Ohi" Barcus calculated with the accent of enlightenment; and leaving the motor, turned to the stern, over which he draped himself in highly un- decorative fashion while groping un- der water for the propeller.
 That's the answer" he repeated; there's young bale of the said eel grass wrapped round the wheel. Which, I suppose, means I've got to go overheard and clear it away"
 Like MT. Law, he wore neither shoes nor other garments that could be more damaged by salt water than they had been-but only shirt, trousers and a belt.
 If you've nothing better to do. my critical friend" he observed as he stopped to hack and tear at the mass of weed embarrassing the propeller. you might step out and give us a trial shove. Don't strain yourself just see if you can move her"
 The boat budged not an inch-but MT. Laws feet did. slipping on the treacherous mud bottom with the up shot of his downfall; with a mighty splash he disappeared momentarily beneath the surface-and left his tenn per behind him when he emerged.
 As for MT. Barcus, he suffered like loss within five minutes; when, with much p;sns and patience having freed the wheel, he climbed aboard and sought to restart the motor. After a few affecting coughs it relapsed into stubborn silence. Studious examination at length brought out the fact shat the gasoline tank was empty

 At this Alan sat up with a start.
 Back against the loom of the Eliza beth islands through which they had navigated while he nodded. shone the milk-white sails of an able schooner.
