gtill in amusement, the cripple
climbed In, not budging the chair BY
fraction Of an inch, and was speeding
away.
And looking at him. they did not
even fire.
Not that they could have hit him
even II they had tried. But awe, and
something as nearly akin to terror as
a New York policeman can feel re-
strained them. For this crippled man
in the crazy car was soaring away, far
over their heads, climbing to the very
summit OF the high structure along
that six-inch cable, till at last he SEEM
ed no more than a black spot against
the blue sky, running with security at
the rate Of an express train, with
drop OF hundreds OF feet into the river
on one side Of him, and, on the other,
fall to certain death upon the struc-
ture Of the bridge.
He seemed to soar like an eagle; he
reached the topmost tower, and then,
seeing the pathway under him heavy
with stalled cars, and the roadway
black with cheering, gasping specta-
tors seeing, too, the ropes which had
been Intellectually stretched forth to
hold him, he laughed. waved his hand
genially, and, at tremendously ac-
celebrated pace, began to glide down
the cable line that stretched to the
Manhattan entrance.
He reached the end of it, travelling
as steadily as bicyclist, hit the as
phalt with gentle jolt twelve feet be-
hind the little group Of police who had
idly gathered there, staring across the
bridge, not thinking to glance upward;
shot over the loops of the street car
lines, and dashed into Park Row,
Across the City Hall park he raced,
crossed Broadway under the horses
noses, reached the river front, where
nothing but slow-moving wagons
blocked the wide street, and dashed
northward at rate of a hundred miles
an hour. He reached the extreme linn
its of Manhattan, crossed into West
chester, and, like streak of light, he
entered the suburban districts, passed
them, and so gained open country and
was lost to the knowledge of all
Ten minutes later he stopped the
chair under tree, descended, and
bathed his face and hands in the water
Of gurgling brook. That was the first
of his exploits and there was muck vel
to be done. Vengeance on all who hat
banded against him, broken up hi
home, thrust him for five lonely year:
into the western jail-this must b.
meted out. But now, having regaineC
tiny fraction of his own, he had funds
with which to start on his immediate
quest. the discovery of his daughtel
Eleanor. She had been fourteen whel
he last saw her; now she must b
nearly twenty. The thought Of seeing
her again gave him new hope. He en-
tered the chair, and at the leisurel!
pace OF fifteen miles an hour, set off to
