And after q while the detective put
down the cabinet and, coming over,

type, and as the immensely Of the

faces grew serious.

complete turning Of the tables had for
the moment destroyed his nerve; now.
at Drummond's words, he recovered
himself. There was no mercy on the
soldiers face, and in his inmost heart
darlington knew that the end had come.
For strong and wiry though he was,
he was no match for the other.
Relentlessly he felt himself being
forced toward the deadly liquid he had
prepared for Drummond, and as the
irony Of the thing struck him, the
sweat broke out on his forehead and
he cursed aloud. At last he backed in
to the edge Of the bath and his strug-
giles redoubled. But still there was no
mercy on the soldiers face, and he
felt himself being forced farther and
farther over the liquid until he was
only held from falling into 1t by Drum
mond's grip on his throat.
Then, just before the grip relaxed
and he went under, the soldier spoke
once:
Henry Iakington." he said, "the
retribution Is just"
Drummond sprang back, and the
liquid closed over the wretched mans
head. But only for second. With
dreadful cry darlington leaped out,
and even Drummond felt mOmentary
qualm of pity. For the criminals
clothes were already burnt through to
the skin, and his face-or what was
left Of twas q shining copper color
Mad with agony, he dashed to the door,
and flung 1t open. The four men out
side, aghast at the spectacle, recoiled
mercy which darlington had never
shown to any one In his life was
given to him at the last.
Blindly he CROPPED his way up the
stairs, and as Drummond got to the
door the end came. Some one must
have put In gear the machinery which
worked on the fifth step, or perhaps 1t
was automatic. For suddenly heavy
steel weight revolving on an arm
whizzed out from the wall and struck
darlington behind the neck. Without
sound he fell forward, and the
weight, unchecked, changed suddenly
home. And thus did the invention Of
which he was proudest break the in
ventor's own neck. Truly, the retribu-
ton was just.
'That only leaves Peterson" re-
marked the American, coming into the
hall at that moment, and lighting a
cigar.
"That only leaves Peterson" agreed
Drummond. "And the girl" he added
as an afterthought.
