ing Coast to follow on when and as
best he might, Alan and Judith were
spinning through open country in the
cab of an engine running light, with
only clear track between it and the
special.
The several hours that ensued be-
fore the rear lights OF the special were
brought to view were none too many
for the task imposed upon Alan OF
overcoming the scruples of the en-
gineer and fireman.
Another minute, and less than fifty
feet separated the two-the special

identified him as Alan Law to Mr. Bar
Gus, and forthwith dropped to the wa
ter, feet foremost.
Alan later took the water neatly,
came up uninjured and clearheaded.
and without an instant's hesitation
struck away toward the middle of the
Hudson.
AS this happened the police ran to
the stern Of the square-rigger, un.
moored dory that was riding there,
and threw themselves into it.
During the Ito Barcus, at least)
breathless suspense of that chase, the
ferryboat drew stolidly farther and
still farther away from the scene. Bar
Gus could not tell whether, as 1t
seemed, the police-laden dory was real
ly overhauling Alan, or whether the
illusion of perspective deceived him.
At all events, 1t seemed a frightfully
near thing when the interruption be-
fell which alone could have saved
Alan.
Out OF the very sky dropped q hydro
aeroplane, cutting the water with a
long, graceful curve that brought 1t.
almost at standstill, directly to the
head of the swimmer, and at tho same
time forced the police boat to sheer
widely off in order to escape collision.
Immediately the swimmer caught
the pontoon Of the hydroaeroplane,
pulled himself up out of the water,
and clambered to the seat beside the
aviator.
Before he was fairly seated the plane
was swinging back into its fastest
pace.
With the ease Of wild goose 1t left
the water, mounted the long grade Of
an air lane, described a wide circle
above the bluffs of Weehawken, and
swept away southwark.
In that quarter it was presently lost
to the sight of Mr.. Barcus, engulfed In
light folds of haze that were creeping
in from Stewards to dim and tarnish
the pristine brilliance of that day.

HIS LIFE SAVED BY A BET
English Soldier, Determined to Win
His Wager, Absolutely Ignored
Summons Of Death.

When Colonel Hay, notorious for his
love of gambling and betting, was Sc.
verely wounded in the Peninsular war,
two brother officers came across his
apparently lifeless body.
Poor Hay! He's gone at last" said
one named Windsor
A faint voice came from the
ground: I'll lay you cool hundred
he's not" His death seemed only
a question of minutes, but he contin-
ued: Enter the bet, and you, Mars
the other officer
be witness"
He then tainted. When he was taken
to hospital the surgeon told him the
bullet could only be removed by saw
ing through two ribs and introduc.
ing q childs hand to extract 1t, as
forceps could not touch it. THE
chances are" he added, that you will
die under the operation"
"If Winsor will make his bet double
or quits, I'll consent" said the colo
mel.
Winsor agreed.
Now saw away" said Hay. Il
won't die" And he did not.
But for that bet." he said after
wards, II should be a dead man; It
was my determination to win 1t that
kept me alive"

train and the light engine, both hur
Ting through the light at top speed
With a word to the engineer Alan
crept out along the side of the boiler,
with only greasy handrail and mar
row foothold between himself and
what meant death, or something close
ly resembling it, should he be shaken
OFF by the tearing wind and the sway
ing Of the locomotive.
1t seemed an hour before he worked
himself up to the cowcatcher-now
within four feet Of the rear platform
of the special.
On this last he could see woman's
figure indistinctly silhouetted against
the light through the door, and beside
her man in white coat, clinging for
dear life to the knob of the door
holding 1t against the frantic efforts of
some persons inside to tear it open.
Another hour of suspense dragged
out-or such was the effect-while the
light engine with intolerable slowness
bridged those four scant feet.
At length 1t was feasible to attempt
the thing. Rose Che could see her
strained white face quite plainly now)
was half over the rail Of the car ahead,
ready to jump.
His heart failed him. 1t was too
hazardous risk. He dared not let her
take 1t.
Something very like shot sounded
from the train and something very like
bullet whistled past his cheek, and
proved the signal for several more.
Strangely, that knowledge steadied
his nerves Straining forward and
holding on to a bar SO hot that 1t
scorched his palm, he offered hand
to the girl on the rail.
Her hand fell confidently into it. She
jumped. His arm wound round her as
she landed on the platform of the COW.
catcher. He heard her breathe his
name. then hurriedly passed her be.
tween himself and the boiler to the
footway at the side. The fireman was
waiting there to help her. Alan turned
his attention to Barcus.
To his dismay he found that the en-
CINE was losing ground. The space
was widening rapidly as Barcus re.
leased the knob and threw himself
over the rail.
By a 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 en-.
gineer applied the brakes.
And this he did none too soon: for
at the same time Marrophat and an.
other appeared on the rear platform
and opened hot, but, thanks to the
widening distance, Intellectual fire.
The engine ground slowly to halt
as the rear lights of the special train
swept from sight round bend

Patiently the Judge repeated the

Eventually persuaded, the clerk

notes superscribed with the same nom

Alan's Impotence was SO great that
he could hardly wait to examine these
communications until he was quit Of

CHAPTER XXX.
Via Air Line.


Not once in the course of the next
sixteen hours but thousand times
Alan questioned (and, it will readily
be allowed, with all excuses) his san
ity in permitting himself to be in
fluenced to humor Judith's insistence
and make her a party to this wild
aerial cross-country dash.
Between whites the plane few fast
and high, cutting direct line, az the
crow flies, athwart the eastern and
western states.
Chicago they raised as smudge on
the northern horizon about one o'clock
in the afternoon; thereafter some lit
tie time was lost in descents to ascer-
tain the identity of the many railroad
lines that criss-crossed the swimming
landscape. Only at the third cast did
they succeed in picking up the line of
the Santa Fe. And II was some hours
later, though still daylight, when they
picked up the special train. flying like
bunting across the levels.
There was scant room for doubt
that it was the train they sought. Spe-
Gals are not common. Moreover Alan
contrived with considerable difficulty
to focus binoculars upon the rear plat
form of the car, and caught fugitive
glimpse of white-coated figure with a
black face that was watching the BIZ
plane in the same manner. that Is,
with glasses.
The man In the white coat, Alan as
sured himself, was positively Barcus.
And hardly had he comforted him
self with this assurance when his sar-
donic destiny struck the motor dumb.
In response to his look of dashed
inquiry the aviator merely shook a
weary head and muttered the words:
Engine trouble"
Swiftly the earth rose to receive the
volplaning mechanism. Under Coasts
admirable handling it settled down al
most without Jar, on the outskirts of
q city whose name Alan never learned.
For the biplane was barely q =
