movement, too dazed for the instant to
act. the injured man struggled up on
one elbow, and, with all the force he
possessed, hurled the knife straight
at the fleeing figure. It flashed through
the air, savage CLEAN Of steel, barely
missing Mendez' shoulder, and buried
itself in a log, Quivering from the force
Of impact. With a yell OF derisi0n, his
hands still bound, the desperate fugI-
tive cast himself head-first through the
opening. Without aim, scarcely aware
OF what she did, the girl flung up her
weapon and fired. With revolver yet
smoking she rushed forward to look
without. Rolling over and over ON the

Mendez was seeking to round the cor

Again she pulled the trigger, the pow.

and binding her. When she could see

leaping out through the door OF the
clubhouse, shouting In excitement.

end Of log, so closely 1t caught q

shot could follow, she had seized the
shutter, and closed the opening, driv-
ing the latch fast with the revolver
butt. She was cool enough now. every
nerve on edge, realizing fully the dam

a fighting race surged through her
veins, and she was conscious Of no
fear, only of a wild exultation, a
strange desire to win. As she turned
