 The slowness with which he groped his way forward indicated unfamiliar ity with the apartment, although his direct advance proclaimed some spe- cial purpose. Clearly he had no fear of attack. I could determine almost his exact position as his advancing foot felt cautiously along the deck. He came forward inch by inch. l measured the distance as indicated by faint, shufling sounds. I could not see but knew. With all my force struck! Blindly as it had been delivered the blow hit fair; there was a thud, an inarticulate grOan, and the fail of body upon the fioor-be- yond that nothing. waited breath lessly listening for the slightest move ment. felt Dorothy touch my shoul- der and caught the sound of her voice trembling at my ear.
 "What is it.? What did you do?"

 I bent over and touched him. The fellow lay In heap with no percep- tible heartbeat, no semblance of breathing. My fingers sought his face and could scarcely suppress cry of surprise-he was not Estada. Who, then, was he? What could have been his purpose in thus invading this stateroom? All I could grasp was the fact that the fellow was not the POr- tuguese-he possessed a smooth face, long hair, and was a much smaller man. I dragged the body where the light illumination from the after port fell directly on the upturned face. The features revealed were unfamiliar those unquestionably of half-breed Indian. Dorothy crossed to my side, her foot striking knife, which came glimmerlng into the narrow range of light. She stared In horror at the ugly weapon. and then at the ghastly countenance.
 "He came to murder! See, his knife Hes there. Why should he have sought to kill mef
 'Tt is all mystery" I admitted. What shall be done with the body? It cannot be left lying exposed here; no one would believe you killed him, and my presence must not be suspect ed"
 Could It." she suggested, "be dropped through the port?"
 She shrank back from touching the inanimate figure, yet it required the combined efforts of both to force the stiffening body through the pOrthole. We could distinguish footsteps on the deck above. but. these were regular and undisturbed-the slow promenade from rail to rail of the officer on watch. Clearly nothing had been heard or seen to awaken suspicion.

But we must face this situation as 1t Is. We possess but two weapons of defense-decelt or force. A resort to the latter Is at present im- possible.

 "The power possessW "Yes-beauty and wit. These are your weapons, and most effective ones.

 Who could he be? What might be the purpose of his entrance? But one answer occurred to me-Pedro Estada, driven by unbridled passions to attack the girl.
