who, dismayed TO find herself mixed
up with Payne, had delayed her de-
parture for the Paso del Norte with
the packet and locket pending further
Developments. Nor did Bertha know
that the girl, to marry whom Major
Brent sought to silence her, occupied
the drawing room In the coach ahead.
Otherwise in her agitated frame of
mind she might have gone and told
her everything about the major She
spent most of the night studying time
tables and wondering what secret the
packet In her travelling case contained.
Pearl sat alone in her unmade berth
until a very late hour, unable to re-
strain a natural curiosity concerning
the import of the message she carried
from the president to the disgraced ex-
officer.
She was in sense glad for the
train ride for 1t gave her an oppor-
tunity to relax. She found herself
taking a passing interest In scenes and
incidents noticeable from the car win
dow. Her mind began to grow slug
gish and her eyes to droop and she
was on the point Of calling the vesti-
bule porter to prepare her bed.
Then to the swiftly-speeding "fyer"
came a series of terrific shocks, hurl-
ing her to the floor just as the lights
went out and the car began to pitch
and roll.
A portion of the top berth fell bare
~ missing where she half lay, half
crouched, stunned, and as all the
world seemed to stand still, she heard
the crash of glass, steel demolishing
steel, an explosion or two and an out
burst of human cries. A little later
she climbed out of the debris of her
coach and leaped unframed to the
railroad tracks below.
Below her appalled, gaze lay the
gnarled, twisted and telescoped ruins
of the luxurious train. Fires were
breaking out and in the rising steam
she caught gllmpses Of disfigured dead,
dying and wounded travellers and part
ly clad people running about wildly.
She realized that she was In the
midst of frightful railroad catas-
trophe.
Immediately she thought of both
Payne and Toxic and began a frantic
search for the former, blindly follow
Ing the lead of trainmen with Ian
terms.
A thunderstorm which had been pre-
vailing now ceased, but the night re-
NAMED inky black, illumined only by
the confiagration Of the wreck. After
fruitless hour the bodies of first one
and then the other of Payne's guards
were found lying fully a cars length
apart. AT this point Pearl discovered
woman seated on some broken

trucks. Her clothing was torn: her
Esir was streaming; and she was act
Ing queerly. In one hand she held
something taken out of small trav-
cling case. Pearl saw her stuff 1t into
the bosom of her shirtwaist and
caught the CLEAN of q gold locket
dangling at her neck.
1t was Bertha Bonn. Pearl won
dered where she had seen this person
before.
Then In the avalanche of junk be-
hind the woman, Pearl, a man with a
lantern hitherto unnoticed, and Toxic,
who suddenly appeared from some
where, simultaneously saw huddled-
up form in army clothes. Pearl ut
tered a little cry. Toxic muttered
something unlntelligible. The woman
rose and following their stares, stifed
a choking sound. Pearl, drawing near
to the still figure seeing In 1t the only
too familiar outlines, gave q little
shudder.
The stranger with the lantern stern
ly waved her back, but too late. In
the fitful light she observed a hideous-
ly crushed and unrecognizable bearded
face.
She stopped trembling and examined
the mans clothing, Jerking a slip Of
paper from the coat pocket.
Her eyes filled, for the penciled
scrawl she read with the lanterns aid
was in the unmlstakeable handwriting
Of Ralph Payne. And its signature
was genuine.

A solemn silence fell upon the
tragic scene.

girl. Her eyes met Toko's for the first
time. Hes deadf'

Together they moved away.

searched the spot at her feet where
che locket and pocket had fallen. They
had disappeared She darted q sus-
picious eye upon Adams. He had not
moved muscle and was indeed quite
unconscious. Her eyes swept the Vi
cinity and could not detect sight or
sound Of any human presence. Again
she examined the ground, using her
hands as well as her eyes. Pinned
under the boot Of the dead soldier she
found a crumpled note.
She tore 1t open with trembling
fingers. Her eyes popped. 1t was the
lost locket receipt Of the Hotel VIII
toni
Bertha experienced a sensation new
to her-fear of the dead. She forgot
Adams, she forgot the lost objects
which had been intrusted to her by
Payne, even for the moment she for
got Major Brent. She fled In q panic.
Her one thought was to get away
from the scene and back to the Wilton
to investigate.
At that moment Adams recovered
consciousness and staggered to his
feet, watching her go. There was
something half humorous, half pathet-
&c and altogether mystifying in his
demeanor. He grimaced at the corpse
and broke into mirthless laughter,
Struggling his shoulders. Then hear
ing noises, he stiffened. A couple of
men carrying stretcher appeared.
They had come for Payne's remains.
Adams strobe away.
Temporary shelter had been provid-
ed for the wreck survivors In a track
gangs cabin, for the nearest hablta-
ton was several miles to the north.
Hither Adams proceeded gazing into
the sleeping silence of the countryside
as he walked wrapped In impenetrabIe
thoughts.
The night was magnificent. The
southern sky was respondent with a
million soft stars. From the earth
into which the abundant rain had
filtered, fresh dark odor rose. Over
yonder somewhere wood owl hooted
at the moon.
He came across Pearl Dare seated

She turned. but before she could es

wrists, snatching the packet from hel
bosom and tearing the locket from the
chain. Whereupon he released her and
bowed to her profusely.
'Thanks, Miss Bonni" he Knocked.
Though outraged and frightened
curiosity was uppermost In her ap-
praisal of him. He was a tall, we'll
set-up young fellow In common, though
not ill-fitting clothes, which were soiled
and torn In several places. His face,
partly shaded by SLOUGH hat, bore
the marks of bruises and was red as
from sunburn or overdrinking. His
features for an ordinary man were
well cut. In clearer light Bertha
thought that he might be very good
looking.
BOlsterlng her courage, she ventured
the all-important question: "Where is
my photograph"
"What photograph

from the locket."

The man was staring strangely, for
the moment forgetful of the packet
and locket. With a quick movement
she knocked both out of his hand.
Then the first Of several uncanny
