Law, asleep in chair beside a table,
his head pillowed on his folded arms.
This was leave-taking between them

Far better so: Judith felt she could
not trust herself to say farewell to
him without breaking down and con-

threatened to overwhelm her each
time she forced herself to face the

BE kind to her. Alan" she said in
an uncertain voice: She didn't under
stand and-and l goaded her beyond
endurance, I'm afraid. Forgive me-
but be kind to her always!"
Somehow, blindly, she stumbled out
of the cabin into the open, possessed
by a thought whose temptation was
stronger than her powers OF resist
ance. What Rose had failed to ac-
complish might now serve to resolve
Judith's problem. a.. None, she told
herself, bitterly, would seek to hinder
her. But she meant 80 to arrange the
matter that none should see or sus-
pect and be moved to interfere.
Round the shoulder OF the noun
tain, on the road along the edge of the
cliff, she was sure of freedom from
observation.
And yet, such Is the inconsistency
OF the human animal, the instinct for
self-preservation was stronger than
her purpose: when touring car swung
round the mountain and shot toward
her, she checked herself hastily and
jumped aside in ample time to escape
being run down.
The next instant the machine was
lurching to a halt and the sonorous
accents Of Seneca Urine were saluting
her:
Judith You here! What the devil!
Where've we been? Where are Mario
PLAT and jimmy"
Digging the nails of her fingers pain
fully into her palms, she breathed
deep. fighting down hysteria, reassert-

She indicated with gesture two
forms that lay at a little distance
back from the roadside, motionless
beneath sheet Of canvas-the bodies
of Trine's creatures, recovered by the
mining gang and brought up for a
Christian burial

Alan Law himself appeared, leaving
the miners cabin in company with
his observation-disclosures now soothed and
comforted, smiling through the traces
of her recent tears as she chung to
her lover, nesting In the hollow Of
his arm.
To Alan, on the other hand, this
rencontre seemed to afford nothing
but the pleasantest surprise imagin-
able.

and running down to the car. Here's
luck! And at the very moment when

me how you do keep track of me this
way-happening along like this every

Drive on!" Urine screamed to the
chauffeur. Drive on. do you hear?"
But Judith had stepped up on the
running board and was cycling the
driver coldly, with one hand signifl-
cantly resting on the butt of the
weapon at her side. The car remained
at a standstill.
Sulphurous profanity followed, a
pungent stream OF vituperation that
was checked only by Judlth's inter
ruption: We've had to gag you once
before, you know. II you want another
taste of that-keep on!"
But where's Barcus?" Judith de-
manded when, after helping Rose into
the car and running of to thank their
hosts, Alan returned alone to the car.

CHAPTER LII.
The Last Trump.

Toward the evening of the third
day following the motor spill, Judith
sat in the deeply recessed window OF
a bedchamber on the second floor Of
a hotel situated In the heart Of Cali
fornia's orange-growing lands.
Behind her Seneca Urine sat, ap-
parently asleep, in a wheeled invalid
chair.
There was no occupant Of the room.
Though he had lain nearly two
days in coma, her fathers subsequent
progress toward recovery of his nor
NAL state had been rapid. Now, &C
cording to council of surgeons and
physicians who had been summoned
to deliberate on his case, he was in
fair way to round out the average
span of sound mans lifetime. He
had apparently suffered nothing in
consequence of his accident more
serious than prolonged unconscious
ness. For the last twenty-four hours
he had been in full possession of his
faculties and (for some reason impos-
sible to Judith to fathom) uncom-
monty CneerIuL
From this circumstance she drew
certain sense of mystifled anxiety.
Twice In the course of the morning
she had caught his eye following her
with a CLEAN of sardonic exultancy,
as though he nursed some secret OF
extraordinary potentialities.
And yet (she argued) 1t was quite
impossible that he should have some
fresh scheme brewing for the assassin
alton OF Alan Not a soul had had any
sort of communication with him since
his recovery but the attending sur
geon, a man of unfmpeachable char
acter, a meek-mannered trained nurse,
and herself, Judith. Under such cir
cumstances he simply could not have
set a new conspiracy afoot.
And yet She was oppressed
by a great uneasiness.
Perhaps (she reasoned) the wealth
er was responsible for this feeling, in
some measure at least. The day had
been Internationally hot, day with
out breath of air. Now, as II drew
toward it's close, it's heat seemed to be
come more and more oppressive even
as Its Light was darkened by a por-
tentous phenomenon-a vast pail OF

Taking the seat next to the chauf
feur, he gave the word to drive on;
and they slipped away from the loca-
ton of the mining camp, saluted by
cheers from the miners.
Half an hour passed without word
spoken by any member OF the party.

pecial preoccupation: Alan turning

The eyed monomaniac occupied the

Thus his one able hand was next to

revolver in the holster on her hip.
Without the least warning his left
hand closed upon the weapon, with

several moments.
