knew something he did not mean to
tell her, as though he were actually
plying her.
II told you If I had to do
it that it would be in the open.
He was shot from the chaparral."
She did not believe that he was
guiltless. She could not think that.
And yet
"What do you mean?" she asked.
His head sank into the sand and his
eyes closed.
Reluctantly she moved toward him,
drawn by his great need. He was the
enemy Of her house, the one who had
brought disaster trretrievable to it.
But he was she believed, dying man.
The eternal mother was in that hour
stronger in her than the daughter Of
her father.
She knelt beside him, looking for the
wounds. A stain Of wet blood in the
back of the shirt showed that he had
been shot from behind. The sight Of
IT gave her little shock, for she re-
called what Phil had said about seeing
some one who looked like Jasper. And
he had told her, Jasper had, that he
intended to get Wills Mccain. Had he
done it? She hoped not. Murder from
the chaparral was dreadful thing,
crime wholly alien to the frank and
passionate temperament of the girl.
Water was needed, and Julia had
not brought a canteen. She took the
dusty hat of the man and ran to the
canal, where she filled it with water
This she carried back carefully.
In one of his pockets she found a
knife and used it to cut away the
soaked shirt clingfng to the wound.

In the year 81 A. d., the great tun-
mel which was to drain the Alban lake
was completed, and the Emperor
Claudius celebrated it with charac-
teristic Roman spectacle. He gave a
mimic naval battle on the lake, re-
peating upon a much larger scale
similar spectacle Augustus had given.
Claudius manned two opposing fleets
with 10000 men. Some of the gal
legs had three and four banks of oars.
Around the shores of the lake troops
were stationed to see that none of
the naval gladiators escaped.
An immense multitude Of people
from Rome and the neighboring towns
