A long minute elapsed before either woman moved or spoke. Traknsfixed . beside Alan's chair, iteadying herself with a hand upon Its >ack, Judith stared at the figure in he doorway, in a temper at once dis omfited and defiant. With this she uffered a phase of incredulity, was carce able to persuade herself that his was truly Rose who confronted ier-Rose whose sweet and gentle ature had ever served as the butt f Judith's conte ~ and ruthless dicule. Her evolution with a venge en Rose threatened and udith shrank! It was as if the women had ex -hanged natures while they slept. The countenance that Rose showed ier sister was a thundercloud rent >y the lurid lightning of her angry iyes. Her pose was tense and alert, Ike the pose of an animal set to pring. In her hand hung a revolver, he same (Judith's hand sought the ioister at her hip and found it empty) :hat her sister had worn and for ;otten to remove when she dropped ialf-dead with fatigue, upon the bed. And slowly, toward the end of that ong, mute minute, the girl's grasp ightened upon the grip of the weapon d its muzzle lifted. Remarking this, a flash of her one :ime temper quickened Judith. Of a ;udden. with a start, she crossed the loor in a single, noiseless stride, and hrew herself before her sister. "Well?" she demanded hotly. "What tre you waiting for? Nobody's stop ing you: why don't you shoot?" The upward movement of the hand vas checked: the weapon hung level o Judith's breast-as level and un equivocal as the glance that probed er eyes and the tone of Rose's voice s she demanded: "What were you doing there?" "If you must know from me what rou already know on the evidence of our eyes-I was bidding good-by to he man I love-kissing him without us knowledge or consent before leav ng him to you for good and all!" "What do you mean?" "That I'm going away-that I can't tand this situation any longer. Marro >hat and Jimmy are dead, my father's uelpless-and I mean to see that he -emaj.as s-o. Nothing, then, stands in he way of your marrying Alan but ne. And such being the case-and ecause he's as dear to me as he is :o you-I'm going to take myself off md kcep out of the way." "For fear, lest he find out that you ove him?" Judith's lip curled. "Do you think iim so witless he doesn't know that mlready?" "And so you leave him to me out of 'our charity! Is that it?" "Any way you like. But if it's so ntorable to you to think that I dare oe him and confess it to you-if .ou begrudge me the humiliation of ~tooping to kiss a man who doesn't rant my kisses-if you are so afraid f losing him while I live and love i-very well, then!" With a passionate gesture Judith ore open the bosom of her waist, ffering her flesh to the muzzle of the -evolver. A cry broke from the lips of Rose hat was like the cry of a forlorn child unished with cruelty that passes its nderstanding. She fell back against he wall. The revolver swept up hrough. the air-but its mark was ter own head rather than Judith's >osom. But before her finger found strength o pull the trigger the man at the able, startled from his sleep by the ound of angry voices, leaped from mis chair with a violence that sent it ~lattering to the floor, and hurled him elf headlong across the room, im risoning the wrist of his betrothed r'ith one hand while the other wrested he weapon away and passed it to udith. "Rose:" he cried thickly, "what does his mean? Are you mad? Judith-" Dragging the bosom of her waist ogether, Judith thrust the weapon nto its holster and turned away. "Be kind to her, Alan," she said in ,n uncertain voice: "She didn't under tand and-and I goaded her beyond ndurance. I'm afraid. Forgive me ut be kind to her always!" Somehow, blindly, she stumbled out f the cabin into the open, possessed y a thought whose temptation was tronger than her powers of resist' .nee. What Rose had failed to ac omplish might now serve to resolve udith's problem. . . . None, she told Lerself, bitterly, would seek to hinder er. But she meant so to arrange the tatter that none should see or sus ect and be moved to interfere. Round the shoulder of the moun ain, on the road along the edge of the 1ff, she was sure of freedom from bservation. And yeauch is the inconsistency animal, the instinct for mywas -str'onger than inar swung and next or-' bie Sen~tinere% have it printe0t Whero've ye been? Where are Marr phat aLd Jimmy?" Digging the nails of her fingers pai fully into her palms, she breathi deep, righting down hysteria, reassel ing her self-control in so short a spai of time that her father failed to a preciate that there was anything u common In the mind of the girl. "Where?" he demanded angrily she approached the car, "where, want to know, are Marrophat and JI: my? Haven't you seen or heard an thing of them? They left me at s o'clock this morning, to go after-" "Dead!" the girl interrupted, se: tentious, eyeing him strangely. "I don't believe it!" the old ma screamed, aghast. "I won't believe: You're lying to me, you jade' You' lying-" "I am not," she broke in coldly. am telling you the plain truth They followed us all morning in th, red racer, firing at us all the whil Finally they caught up with us her about noon-came up this road shoc Ing over the windshield.

She indicated with a gesture tN forms that lay at a little distan back from the roadside. motionle beneath a sheet of canvas-the bodio of Trine's creatures, recovered by tl mining gang and brought up for Christian burial. But Trine required no more confirr ation of Judith's word. The ligl flickered and died in his evil old eye. his stricken countenance assumed hue of pallor even more intense tha was normal with it; a broken cur. issued from his trembling, thin, 6 lips; and his chin sagged to his ches heavy-weighted with despair that fc lowed realization of the fact that I no longer owned even one friend creature upon whose consciencele. loyalty he might depend.

To Alan, on the other hand, th rencontre seemed to afford nothir but the pleasantest surprise imagi: able. "Well!" he cried, releasing Ro: and running down to the car. "Here luck!

The car remain' at a standstill. Suiphurous profanity followed, pungent stream of vituperation th was checked only by Judith's inte ruption: "We've had to gag you on before, you know. If you want anoth taste of that-keepfon!" "But where's Barcus?" Judith d manded when, after helping Rose in the car and running off to thank the ghosts, Alan returned alone to the car "Goodness only knows," the your man answered cheerfully. "He wou insist on rambling off down the ca yon in search of an alleged toy where we could hire a motor car somewhere down there.

The Last Trump. Toward the evening of the third [s day following the motor spill, Judith < g sat in the deeply recessed window of a- a bedchamber on the second floor of a hotel situated In the heart of Cali e fornia's orange-growing lands. 's Behind her Seneca Trine sat, ap n parently asleep, in a wheeled invalid d chair. tr i There was no occupant of the room. s Though he had lain nearly two 2 s days in coma, her father's subsequent trikes Down Alan and Roce. yprogress toward recovery of his nor n mal state had been rapid. Now, ac cording to a council of surgeons and e physicians who had been summoned " to deliberate on his case, he was in' e a fair way to round out the averag'e e span of a sound man's lifetime. If{e . had apparently suffered nothingj in e consequence of his accident tnore d serious than prolonged unconscious ness. For the last twenty-four hours a he had been in full possession of his afaculties and (for some reason impos sible to Judith to fathom) uncom Smonly cheerful r From this circumstance she drew a certain sense of mystified arcxiety. e Twice in the course of the morning oshe had caught his eye following her ir with a gleam of sardonic exultancy, r .s though he nursed some secret of extraoridinary potentialities.4 ld And yet (she argued) it was quite a impossible that he should have some - fresh scheme brewing for the assassin -.. ation of Alan. Not a soul had had any 0 sort of communication witn him since1 d his recovery - but the attending sur t geon, a man of unimpeachable char h acter, a meek-mannered trained nurse, y and herself, Judith. Under such cir-3 > cumstances he simply could not have 1 - set a new conspiracy afoot.1 And yet . . . She was oppressed fby a great uneasiness.1 Perhaps (she reasoned) the weath a- er was responsible for this feeling, in I 7 some measure at least. The day had I .been unconscionably hot, a day with- 1 e out a breath of air. Now, as it drewC a. toward its close, its heat seemed to be , come more and more oppressive eyeD I it as its light was darkened by a por r tentous phenomenon-a vast pall of 1 pinky cloud shouldering up over the t mountains to the music of distant rum-1 blings. *d Nor was this all; a considerable de- I .gree of restlessness was surely par s- donable in one who, from her window, g watched a carriage-drive populous ;e with veohicles (for the most part mo d tor cars) bringing to the hotel gayly WHAT COUNTS More People At ian Abroad. :he smaller cities, which sells our 1, agent for a big eastern mani :ing of idvertising men in Atlanta. ts in these towns, and the live I papers.

Now as the mo- d( nent drew near when the marriage S vould be a thing finished, fixed, o rretrievable, she found herself un- S ble to endure the strain alone. Slowly, against her will, she rose nd stole across the floor to her fa- o her's chair. His breathing was slow and regu ar; beyond doubt he slept; unques ionably there was no reason why she T hould not leave him for ten minutes; ven though he waked it could not tarm him to await her return at the nd of that scant period. Like a guilty thing, on feet as noise ess as any sneak thief's, she crept rom the room, closed the door s1 ently, ran down the hall and de- U cended by a back way, a little-used w taircase, to the lower hall, approach- C, ng the scene of the marriage. Constructed in imitation of an old spanish mission chapel, It contained ne of the finest organs in the world; P Lt this close range its deep-throated S( ones vied with the warnings of the la torm. Judith, lurking in a passage- lo ay whose open door revealed the 10 tar steps and chancel, was shaken o the very marrow of her being by he majestic reverberations of the nusic. D Since they had regained contact w vith civilization In a section of the F :ountry where the Law estate had p -ast holdings of land, the chapel was bronged with men and women who ad known Alan's father and wished o honor his son. . . . Above stairs, In the room Judith Lad quitted. Seneca Trine opened >th eyes wide and laughed a silent augh of savage triumph when the Loor closed behind his daughter. At last he was left to his own de ices-and at a time the most fitting maginable for what he had in mind. With a grin, Seneca Trine raised oth arms and stretched them wide Lpart. Then. grasping the arms of his hair, he lifted himself from it and stood trembling upon his own feet for he first time in almost twenty years. L Grasping the back of the wheeled , :hair, he used it as a crutch to guide us feeble and uncertain movements. 3ut these became momentarily stronger and more confident. f1 This, then, was the secret he had 1 lugged to his embittered bosom, a s] iecret unsuspected even by the at :ending surgeon; that through the b notor accident three days ago he had b reganed the use of limbs that had been stricken motionless-strangely mough, by a mof car-nearly two ecades since. t Slowly but sv.'h bureau in the f its drawers :hing he had, ;een Judith pu hought he si Then, with pocket cf his dressin6 teered a straight if very deim. :ourse to the door, let himself out, md like a materialized specter of the na he once had been, navigated the ~o *rto the head of the broads ~e~tral staircase and step by step, ~nging with o2%-hands, negotiated he descent. t The lobby of the hotel was desert - As the ceremony approached its end 0 every guest and servant in the house was crowding the doorway to the s hapel. None opposed the progress C >f this ghastly vision In dressing c ;own and slippered feet, chuckling s nsanely to himself as he tottered a :hrough the empty halls and corri-t lors, finding an almost supernatural g ;trength to sustaIn him till he found uimself face to face with his chosen memy and victim. The first that blocked his way into e he chapel, a bellboy of the hotel, ooked round at the first touch of the C :aw-like hand upon his shoulder and tJ hrank back with a cry of terror-a V ry that was echoed from half a s. lozen throats within another instant. t< As if from the path of some grisly S isitant from the world beyond the A ~rave, the throng pressed back andf leared a way for Seneca Trine, fa-V her of the bride. And as the way opened and he V oked up toward the altar and saw c: L~lan standing hand in hand with b lose while the minister invoked a 9 lessing upon the union that had been r ut that instant cemented, added trength, the strength of the insane, vas given to Seneca Trine. When Alan, annoyed by the dis urbance in the body of the chapel, - ooked round, it was to see the aged naniac standing within a dozen feet f him; and as he looked and cried ut in wonder, Trine whipped a re 'olver from the pocket of his dressing ;own and swung it steadily to bear ipon Alan's head. At that instant the storm broke ai rith infernal fury upon the land. A crash of thunder so heavy andI rolonged that it seemed to rock theN ery building upon its foundations, .companied the shattering of a huge taed-glass window. 3 A bolt of bluish flame of dazzling 11 rilliance slashed through the window 41 ike a flaming sword and smote the 2( istol in the hand of Seneca Trine, ischarging the weapon even as it g truck him dead. As he fell the Jyolt swerved and truck two others down-Alan Law nd the woman who had- just been 1ade his wife. (Continued Next week) NE N'S V M 'o go at a bargain.
