sian broke the silence, as he strove
feebly to pull out the rifle and bayonet
from his chest, which had fixed him to
the wall as a dead butterfly IS fixed in
a collection with a pin.
Peterson had a feeting vision of
girl with white face and wide, star
ing eyes, beside whom were standing
two of the motionless black figures as
guards-the girl whom he had just
sentenced to dreadful and horrible
death, and then his eyes came back
again as If fascinated to the man who
was coming toward him. He tried to
shrink back farther into his corner,
plucking with nerveless fingers at his
clerical cOllar-While the sweat poured
off his face In a stream. For there
was no mercy in Hugh Drummond's
eyes: no mercy In the great arms that
hung loosely forward. And Peterson
realized he deserved none.
And then it came. No word was
spoken - DrummOnd was beyond
| speech. His hands shot out and Peter
son felt himself drawn relentlessly to-
ward the man he had planned to kill,
0Ot two minutes before. 1t was his
turn now to wonder desperately If It
was some hideous nightmare, even
while he struggled impotently in his
final frenzy with q man whose strength
seemed equal to the strength of ten.
He was choking: the grip on his
throat was not human In its ferocity.
There was great roaring In his ears,
and suddenly he ceased to struggle.
The glare in Drummond's eyes hyp-
Noticed him, and for the only time in
his life he gave up hope.

"You appear to have wonderful
faculty for remaining alive, my young
friend" remarked Peterson two min

Drummond over his clerical collar.
"You can't imagine the unpleasant
surprise 1t gave me-" Peterson con

He turned snarling on the Russian,

And then suddenly she began to
laugh Historically, and he half rose
from his seat, only to sit down again
abruptly as he felt the cold ring Of a
revolver pressed into the nape of his
neck.

Phyllis, half laughing and half crying,
"and one makes six. l worked 1t out

She went on aimlessly for a while
in the same strain, till the Russian
swung round on her with snarl, and

talking in low tones to Peterson, and
with one searching look at Hugh, she
relapsed into silence. There was no

so there was still hope, If only he
could gain time.
First-how long did he want? Two
hours at least three If possible. To

ANCIENT TOMBS
Of SAXONS
FOUND
Resting Places Of Whole Royal
Line of Ethelbert DiscoV-
cred in Abbey
by International News Service.

by International News Service.
CANTERBURY, Eng. March q
An archaeological find unique IN
the history of English excavations
has been made in the discovery of
the tombs Of the whole royal line
of Ethelbert, Saxon kings who
ruled England during the sixth CEN
fury, by experts who have been
probing the ruins of st. Angus
tines Abbey in this city.
Besides these tombs several
others containing the remains of
lesser and invading kings have
been found in the Abbey, which
was in olden times the habitation
of the st. Augustine Brotherhood
Of Monks.
The tombs of the Ethelberts
were found in the south and along
ern transepts Of the Abbey, and
were mostly built against the wall.
The tombs were Of twelfth century
construction, which leads to the be-.
lief that the bodies must have been
re-interred in the Abbey at some
time.
Some of the tombs are in a dam
aged state, while others are prac-
tically complete, even to the leaden
| inscriptions upon them, which state
that here rests such and such a
parsonage, who died in the year 685.
Between each Of the graves was
found low dividing wall, ending
in large square plinth in front
| of the line Of the graves, while
there remain stone shafts and bases
at each end of the fourth grave.
In what was the western tower
Of the abbey havc been found seven
graves, with some children's graves,
which are believed to have been
the previous resting places Of the
kings before they were removed TO
the tombs in the transepts.
The finding Of the tcmbs has ex-
cited great interest among archaeo-
logical circles here, as it is expected
to provide much additional infor-
nation as to conditions in those
far-off times.

Red Crests on Sparrows Prove
Flannel Glued on by Joker.

BOSTON, April 14.-The origin of
red-headed English sparrows which
this Spring, distracted Boston orni-
biologists have striven vainly to class
ify, has been traced by police investi-
cation to the hobby of a Dorchester
man. Some of the strange-appearin
birds were captured.
AS a result of an investigation by
police and agents of the Society for
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals,
Dorchester man was brought into
court where he admitted that for some
months past he had been spending
his leisure moments in trapping spar
rows, glueing red flannel crests to
their heads and releasing them to
flaunt their millinery in the faces of
their feathered companions.
