Hell-Flrc.
But by this stage in his history Mr..
Law had arrived at state OF mind
immune to surprise at the discovery
that he had once more failed to elude
the vigilance and pertinacity OF the
woman who sought his life.
He viewed the schooner with no
more display of emotion than resided
in narrowing eyelids and a tightening
OF the muscles about his mouth.
Much farther to go?" he inquired
presently. in a colorless voice.

hours"

How much lead have we got?"
"A mile or so-none too much"
Anything to be done to mend mat

"Nothing-but pray If you remem-
Der how"
In the end they made it by a narrow
margin. The face Of Judith Trine was
distinctly revealed by the chill gray
light of early dawn to those aboard
the power cruiser as she swept I'D
through the reaches Of New Bedford
harbor and aimed for the first wharf
that promised a fair landing on the
main waterfront OF the CITY

pening he had gone over the stern
and had Involuntary disarmed him
self as well.
The other two men made sad busi-
ness OF attempting 10 overpower Mr..
Barcus In less than a minute they
were both overheard.
And just for this" Alan said before
getting out of earshot-"Im going to
treat my party TO d joy-ride in your
pretty powerboat"
He concluded this speech abruptly
as Barcus brought them up under the
quarter OF the power cruiser.
Within two minutes the motor was
spinning contentedly, the mooring had
been slipped. and the motorboat was
heading out OF the harbor
Within five minutes she had left II
well astern and was shooting rapidly
westward. making nothing OF the buff

Mr.. 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. solicitously 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 a lady.
Poor Mr.. Barcusi" she said gently
I'm SO sorry. Do forget I'm here
and say it out loud,'
Mr.. Barcus dropped his hands and
dropped his head at the same time.
1T can't be did," he complained in
embittered resignation; the words
have never been invented ="
N the bows Mr.. Law (who had
barely saved himself a headlong
plunge overheard when the shoal took
fast hold of the keel felt tenderly of
his excoriated shins. then, rising, COM

anxious gaze.

that quarter to indicate pursuit
Where are we?" he wondered aloud
Ask me 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 a lighthouse over yonder"
Alan took soundings from the bows.
Barely two feet" he announced,
Withdrawing the oar from the water.
and eel-graes no end"
"Oh." Barcus calculated with the
accent Of enlightenment; and leaving
the motor. turned to the stern, over
which he draped himself in highly I'M
decorative fashion while cropping I'M
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, | suppose, means I've got to
go overheard and clear it away"
Like Mr.. 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
or weed embarrassing the propeller,
you might step out and give us a
trial shove. Don't strain yourself
Just see il you can move her"
The boat budged not an inch-but
Mr.. 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 eurface-and left his tenn
per behind him when he emerged
AS for Mr.. Barcus, he suffered like
loss within five minutes; when, with
much pains and patience having freed
the wheel. he climbed aboard and
sought to restart the motor After
= few affecting coughs it relapsed into
stubborn silence.
Studious examination at length
brought out the fact that the gasoline
tank WAS empty.

Anticlimax.


Alan came To himself supported by
Barcus-his senses still Keeling from
the conclusion OF that thunderboli
which he had 80 unwittlngly loosed-

dissipated by the wind
Judith lay at his feet, stunned; and

And then Barcus was hustllng him
unceremoniously down the wharf.
Come! Gomez" he rallied Alan.
Pull yourself together and keep a
stifr upper lip. Rose is waiting In
the car. and II you don't want to be
arrested you'll stir your stumpe. my
son! That explosion is going to bring
the worthy burghers OF New Bedford
buzzing round our ears like a swarm
OF hornetsl'
His prediction was justified even
before 1t was made; already the near
by dwellings were vomiting half.
clothed humanity; already a score of
people were galloping down toward
the head OF the wharf: and In their
number a policeman appeared as II by
magic.
And while the man hesitated Alan
grabbed him by the shoulder. threw
MIN bodily from the car. dropped into
his seat, cried a warning to Rose and
threw In the clutch. The machine re-
sponded without Jar; they were a
hundred feet distant from the scena
OF the accident before Alan was fairly
settled in his place.
