One after another, these young men had been invited down to "Hazel hurst," which was the country home of the widow Forbes. There were games on the lawn motoring over the highways-fishing without getting a bite, and various other diversions. And there was Miss Frances, handsome, chatty, witty, and treating all alike. There was a hoodoo at "Hamle hurst." Seven times In one ~ year it had been robbed. Of course, Mr. Forbes had bought a gun, and, of course, he had bought an other for his sister. They practised until they could hit a barn door a rod away. Each one of the young men that came down brought a weapon. Two bear traps were set under win dows, and wires and alarm bells were to give due notice. The burglar got in just the same. A burglar alarm had been suggested ovgr and over, and finally one was Installed. The day it was tested Jack Haines ap peared for a three days' visit. "I don't know about It keeping them out," he replied In doubtful tones. "But if you open a door or raise a window it Is bounid to ring." He took a trip around the house and returned to the veranda. "There's an outside cellar door that is not wired at all," he said. "How careless of Guy not to see to that!" exclaimed the sister. When the brother came home in the evening and heard of the derelic tion, he replied: - "I was talking with a detective to day." "Well?" "He advised me to sit up for a few nights and watch and shoot. No bur glar gets. to work before midnight, and it is daylight at about four at this season. "And you will sit up in your room?" was asked. "Yours truly." "And I in mine," said Mr. Haines. "Where do you think he will get In?" asked Mr. Haines. "At one of the bedroom windows. "And shall we shoot to kill?" "You bet!" The girl didn't name the location she would take, but she had it planned out. Firstly, she didn't believe that any burglar would show up that night, er for many another night, either. Secondly, if he did come It.would be by the cellar doors. It was the vul nerable point, and he would take no risks In trying experiments. And she laughed to herself over the sort of watch the two men would keep. They would sit down. in rocking chairs, Seet up, and pipes a-going, and within hall an bour they would be sound asleep to last till morning. The gi was right in the main, but she missed it in the case of Mr. Haines. Not \that he did not fall. asleep within the. allotted half-hour, but that he pitched to the floor about midnight and was very much aroused. No sooner had he got his wits than he got a plan. .He would slip down stairs and tunoff the alarm, and then go out by the back door and thus reach the cellar. When he came back he would- pick up some brioebrac to -ary to his room until the joke was ready .to be exploded. He had almost reached the door leading into the kitchen when he heard a movement and straightened up. Then came a flash of fire in his face, followed by cries of "Guy! Guy!" and the switching on of electric lig.hts. "What the devil is the row!" de' manded the brother as he came tum bling down stairs. His sister was crouched against the front door and wringing her band and she gasped out In answer: "I have shot the burglar!" "Where is he?" "There-there-in the dining-room!" "Bully for you! I'll have a look at him." There was the burglar, lying on his face, rand there was a trickle of blood on the parquet floor. He drew up one leg as the other man looked down On him. "Why, it's Mr. Haines!" shrieked Miss Frances, as she came running in. "Darned If It isn't!" Mr. Haines opened his eyes and faintly remarked 'that everything could be explained, and then fainted away and did not come to until the doctor was probing for the bullet. When the bustle and hurry were over, the girl told her story. "I thought I heard the burglar at that cellar door. Then I was sure I heard him creeping up the cellar staIrs and across the kitchen floor. I wanted to scream and run away, but I dared not move. Thea the pis tol went off by accident. I didn't even know that it was pointed at him. He must have thought he heard some thing to bring him down to investi gate." "But what in the Old Harry were you doing down here in the dark and alone!" was demanded. "I was waiting for the burglar!" "Well, he came along, and now you are in for a job of nursing.- If you don't pula him through in good shape and the." marry him I hope he'll sue yo1 tur a million dollars damages!"
