 She slammed the door shut, turn cd the key in the lock, and, racing through the darkness, went down the stairs. Behind her she heard the rip and rend of wood, the crashing of door panel.
 She gained the cellar. found her way to the window, opened 1t. and, reaching out, pushed the iron grill to one side.
 Planting, breathless, she managed finally to get her elbows on the sill. She wriggled forward, got her hands outside on the paved areaway, and, preparing to crawl through the narrow window, gave a low cry of fear.
 Someone was shouting. She had been seen! The shouts were com ing from one of those lighted win dows in the apartment house. She could see that the window was open, and that a man was standing there
 Tn desperate haste she thrust head and shoulders through the window-and, as it had done when she had gone in, the wide brim of her hat caught on the widnow cas- ing. But this time, with both hands outside the window, she could not save it, and 1t toppled backward into the cellar.
 Another window in the apart ment house was flung open-still another. Game a chorus of shouts nowl But now she was on her feet out in the areaway, and run ming madly for the street.
 And then luck turned for her open handed. She caught a taxi that was cruising by, and the next minute she was being whirled out of sight around the corner.
