They were granted time to exchange

sharply between his two guards to
confront Judith Urine.
The woman he saw at first glance,
was in one of her most dangerous
moods-if, Barcus mentally qualified,
there was pin to choose between her
moods But now, beyond dispute, she
exhibited a countenance new in his
experience with her, and one we'll cal

Her face was bloodless, even as her
lips were white with the curb she put
upon her passion. Her eyes we're lurid
with the glare of rage approaching

that you'll cross me only to suffer

The courage of the other girl won
the unstinted admiration of Mr.. Bar

to find fresh heart in her sisters chal-
ienge. Her head was high, her glance
level with illimitabIe contempt as she
replied:

that he could never hold you in any

For an instant there was silence; by
the sc9rn of her sister the heat of
Judiths fury had been transformed
into cold and malignant rage. She
controlled herself and her voice mar
velously.
"You will see,' she said in even and
frigid accents. And the light of her

eyes like living fame. Il have pre-

He lifted his gaze
Two men were running along the
cliff-and the man in the lead was
Alan. But his lead was very scant,
and the man wh6 pursued was one Of
Judith's, and stuck to the trail like a
bloodhound fresh from the leash.
And now the water rses at his lips;
Barous could no more speak without
strangling.
OF sudden he groaned in his heart;
though there was no paasable way
down the cliff. still the sight of his
friend alive and unharmed had brought
with it thrill of hope; now that hope
died as he saw Alan stumble and go
to his knees.
Before he could rise the other was
upon him, with the fury of a wolf seek
ing the throat Of stag.
For an instant they fought like mad
men; then, in a trice, the sky line
Of the cliff was empty; one or the
other had tripped and fallen over the

BY no chance, Barcus told himself,

Yet, to his amazement, he saw one
man break from the others embrace
and rise And he who lay still, a
crumpled, inhuman heap upon the
sands, was Judith's man.
With a violent effort Barcus lifted
his mouth above water and shrieked:
ALAN! Alan! Helpl Here-at the
end of the point-in the water-help!"
