She slammed the door violently;
throwing herself against 1t, she felt
for key and found none; she
stretched up her right arm toward
the wall to brace herself to take the
strain.
She reached up her hand with all

Her nerve broke.
In the recon she screamed hide

rose and echoed wildly through the

scream cut sharply at its highest
point as a mans hand closed expertly
upon her face, the thumb and fore
finger pinching her nostrils shut
while the palm blocked her mouth.
Alison gave gurgle and tainted.
That's better. :"
She became conscious of q very
firm arm holding her tight, of rough
tweed scrsping her cheek and the
rapid beating Of her own heart.

CHAPTER III.

NEW DANGER.
~OMING In, exploring this
I empty house for any sign Of
her father, Alison had passed
~ two pairs of stairs. One,
leading of the long passage
which ran straight from the front
hall, was evidently the front stairs
to the bed rooms; the other, cut OIL
by a baize door, came down outside
the pantry door and ran directly out
side the bath room.
An upper baize door with spring
to 1t cut this part Of the house OIL
from the front part, too. Those last
three faint creeaks had seemed to
come from the front passage. Gould
she creep down these back stairs un-
seen and gain the window and the
road? Safer, perhaps, to slip down
the ivy-unless, guessing her inten-
tion, he had gone to wait down there
in the dark road!
Snatching at her courage, Alison
released the door. Cautiously, trem-
bling, she opened 1t little way and
peered out. The faint glow Of the
torch. showed her an empty passage,
q white bed room door, tiny square
of window with the rain pouring
down it and the far baize door, shut.
The way was clear!
For no more than q second she
listened, breathless, but now 1t seemed
as If the whole house held its breath,
too. There was no sound at all, even
~ttn
the stairway. close at hand, dark but
empty.
Alison ran.
She had reached the turn of the
stairs when the torch went out.
The black dark seemed to hit her,
knocking out her breath; 1t was like
going blind. But her hand frightened
on the stair-rail and she went on,
running, two steps at q time.
She suffered, in those few seconds
the most primitive OF all emotions
a fear fine drawn to the point OF bat
tie, in which every nerve and muscle
Is strained to the utmost, ready to
fight. Her foot found the lower
passage level with jerk that hurt.
Creak! Pit-a-pat.
A thin spear of light cut the dark
ness ahead, showing her the half
glass pantry door on her right, the
lower baize door ahead-a beam OF
light split by the banisters above.
1t was coming-running along the
bath room passage, chasing her down
the stairs!

Memory came back and she gave
gasp. Shrinking, she writhed from
the arms, which held her and slid
free on hands and knees. Whirling
around, found herself looking up
into pair Of bright and quizzical
blue eyes.
"All right?"
A pair Of broad, tweed-covered
shoulders. large friendly features,
pleasantly red-tanned, dark hair that
grew crisply OF q wide forehead,
keen eyes light as a bucket of sea
water-this was no grisly ghost, but
a mere man, reassuringly human and
alive! Alison drew a deep sigh Of re-
lief and grew exceedingly indignant.
What exactly do you think you're
doing?"
It Is not easy to show dignity on all
fours, but she did her best.

BALTIMORE TIE-UP
Tugboat Companies and Employees
Unable to Agree on Pay
After 3 Days.

BALTIMORE, February 11.-A
strike of tugboat sailors and f1remen
threatened to stall lighterage and
barge movements in Baltimore Harbor
again today.
No agreement between the tugboat
companies and employees appeared
Forthcoming as the strike entered its
third day. Demanding higher pay,
the men went on strike Saturday.
Tugboat officers, while not on strike
themselves, sympathized with the
sailors and fremen and declined to
accept new crews
T. Barborka, business agent for the
local longshoremen, said that group
also would strike if the makeshift
crews we're accepted.
c. H. Spedden, president of the
Curtis Bay Towing Co.'S. one of the
largest concerns affected, said wage
scales at present we're per cent above
the wartime peak and that the
strikers demands, ranging as high as
a IS per cent increase in pay, could
not be met.
