CHAPTER VIII.
A Victory and q Defeat.

l arose silently to my feet, fully aware that all hope of thwarting this villainy lay in immediate action. San chez had turned slightly and stood with his face toward the bay, 1 ven tured cautious step forward and stood on the open sand, scarcely a yard to his rear Some vague sense of my presence must have influenced the man. for he swung suddenly aDout, uttering a stified cry of startled sur prise, as we met face to face. For an instant we were locked so closely within each others desperate grip. his head bent beneath my arm, with my fingers clutehing at his throat to block any call for help, that he possessed no knowledge of his assallant's identity, But the man was like a tiger. The surprise of attack was to my adyan- tage. yet almost before realized what was being done he had rallied, broken my first hold, and his eyes were glar. ing straight into mine. Then he knew me, his free hand instantly grasping at his knife. Even as he ierked it forth l crushed his wrist within my fingers, forcing his forearm back. There was no outcry, no noise except that of our heavy breathing and tram. bling feet. Personal hatred had as. tendency in both our hearts-I doubt if he ever thought of aught else but the desire to kill me there with his own hands. Only once did he even utter word, hissing out the sentence as though 1t were a poison:
 ITO hell with you. you sneaking English curl"
 What followed has bo me no clear. ness, no consistency. Never nave | fought with deeper realization that l needed every ounce of strength and every trick of wit and skill. Now I knew the fellow possessed greater Knowledge of the game than 1 and a quicker movement; excelied in weight of body and ooSlness of brain. Twice he pricked me deep enough to draw blood, before succeeded tn twisting backward the arm with which ne held the blade. He met inc game too late, failing half back upon one knee hoping thus to noii my purpose. There was the sharp crack 1t Il cone. as his useless fingers iet ne anife drop, q snarled curse of 1alneand then, with the rage of mad aog, SancneY struck his teeth deep into my cheek. With thrill of exultation I gripped the knife, driving instantly the keen blade to it's hilt into the mans side. He made no cry, no struggle--the set teeth unlocked and he fell Imply back on the sand, his head lapped by the waves.
