bo near," lie said, staring at me coolly. "I'm glad it annoys you, Morgan," I said. "I want you to tell me how you got in here." He laughed. "I came in by the kitchen window, if you must know. I got in before your solemn Jack-of-aTMraGes locked it up, and I walked down to the end of the passage there" he indicated the direction with a slight jok of his head "and slept until it was time to go to work." "If you can't lie better than that you needn't try assin. Face about, now, and march!" I put new energy into my tone, and he turned and walked before me down the corridor in the direction from which he had come. We were, I dare say, a pretty pair he tramping doggedly before me, I following at his heels with his lantern and my pistol. "Not so fast," I admonished sharply. "Excuse me," he replied mockingly. He was no common rogue; I felt the quality in him with a certain admiration for his scoundrelly talents. I continued at his heels, poking the muzzle of the revolver against his back from time to time to keep him assured of my presence a device that I was to regret a second later. When we were, I should judge, about ten yards from the end of the corridor, at that moment I prodded him with the point of the revolver, he fell backward against me, threw his arms over his head and grasped me about the neck, meanwhile turning himself lithely until his fingers clasped my throat. The lantern fell from my hand and one or the other of us smashed it with our feet. A wrastling match in that dark hole was not to my liking. I still held onto the revolver, waiting for a chance to use it, and meanwhile he tried to throw me, forcing me bask against one side and then another of the corridor. With a quick rush he flung me away, and in the same second I fired. He Flung Me Away and in the Same Second I Fired. The roar of the shot in the narrow corridor was deafening. I flung myself on the floor, expecting a return shot, and quickly enough a fiash broke upon the darkness dead ahead, and I rose to my feet, fired again and leaped to the oposite side of the corridor and crouched there. We had adopted the same tactics, firing and dodging to avoid the target made by the flash of our pistols, and watching and listening after the roar of the explosions. It was a very pretty game, but not destined to last long. He wa3 slowly retreating toward th end of th passage where there was1. I remembered, a dead waH. His only chance was to crawl through an area window I knew to be there, and this would. I felt sure, give him into my hands. After five shots apiece there was a truce. The pungent smoke of the pow der caused me to cough, and he laughed. "Have you swallowed a bullet. Mr. Glenarm?" he called. I could hear his feet scraping on the cement floor; he was moving away from me, noubtless intending to fire when he reached the area window and escape before I could reach him. I crept warily after him, ready to fire on the instant, but not wishing to throw away my last cartridge. He was now very near the end of the corridor. I heard his feet strike some boards that I remembered la? on the floor there, ?nd I was nerved for a shot and a hand-to-hand struggle, if it came to that. I was sure that he sought the win dow; I heard his hands on the wall as he felt for it. Then a breath nf rnld air swept the passage, and I knew that he must be drawing himself up to the opening, i fired and dropped to the floor. With the roar of the explosion I heard him yell, but the expected return shot di, not follow. The pounding of my heart seemed to mark the passing of hours. I feared my foe was playing some trick, creeping toward me, perhaps, to fire at close range, or to grapple with me in the dark. The cold eir whistled into the corridor, and I began to feel the chill of it. Being fired upon, is disagreeable enough, but waiting In the dark for the shot is intolerable. I rose and walked toward the end of the passage.

directly ahead, the Came of it so near that it blinded me and the wad of the cartride burned and stung my cheek. I fell forward dazed and bl'jided, but i shook myself together in a moment and got upon my feet. The draft of air no longer blew into the passage. Morgan had taken himself off through the window and closed it after him. I made sure of this by going to the window and feeling it with my hands. I went back and groped about for Bay candle, which found without difficulty and lighted. I then returned to the window to examine the eatch. To my utter astonishment it was fastened, with staples, driven deep into the sash in such a way that it could not possibly have been opened without an expenditure of time and labor. ! My eyes smarted from the smoke of i the last shot, and my cheek stung where the wadding had struck my I face. I was alive, but in my vexation j and perplexity not, I fear, wholly I grateful for my safety. It was, how-

vci. tM.-ue consolation to reel sure 1 had winged the enemy. I gathered up the fragments of Morgan's lantern and went back to the library. The lights in half the candlesticks had sputtered out. I extinguished the remainder and started to nay room. Then, in the great dark hall, I heard a muffled tread as of some one following me not on the broad staircase, nor in any place I could identify yet unmistakably on steps of some sort beneath or above me. My nerv3 were already keyed to a breaking pitch, and the ghost-like tread in the wall angered me. Morgan, or his ally, Bates, undoubtedly, O reflected, at some new trick. I ran into my room, found a heavy walking stick and set off for Bates' room on the third floor. It was always easy to attribute any sort of mischief to the fellow, and undoubtedly he was crawling through the house somewhere on an errand that boded no good to me. It was now past two o'clock and he should have been asleep and out of the way long ago. i crept to his room and threw open the door without, I must say, the slightest idea of finding him there. But Bates, the enigma, Bates, the incomparable cook, the perfect servant, sat at a table, the light of several candles falling on a book over which he was bent with that maddening gravity he had never yet in my presence thrown off. He rose at once, stood at attention, inclining his head slightly. "Yes, Mr. Glenarm." "Yes, the devil!" I roared at him, astonished at finding him sorry, I must say, that he was there! The stick fell from my hands. I did not doubt he knew perfectly well that I had some purpose in breaking hi upon him. I was baffled and In my rage floundered for words to explain myself. "I thought I heard some one in the house. I don't want you prowling about in the night, do you hear?" "Certainly not, sir," he replied in a grieved tone. I glanced at the book he had been reading. It was a volume of Shakespeare's comedies, open at the first scene of tiae last act of "Winter's Tale." "Quite a pretty bit of work that, I should say," he remarked. "It -a3 one of my late master's favorites." "Go to the devil!" I bawled at him, and went down to my room and slammed the door la rage and chagrin. CHAPTER XI. I Receive a Call. Going to bed at three o'clock on a winter morning in a house whose ways are disquieting, after a duel in

which you escaped whole only by sheer good luck, does not fit one for sleep. When I finally drew the covers over me It was to lie and speculate upon the events of the night in connection with the history of the few weeks I had spent at Glenarm. Larry had suggested in New York that Pickering was playing some deep game, and I, myself, could not accept Pickering's statement that my grandfather's large fortune had proved to be a myth. If Pickering had not stolen or dissipated it, where was it concealed? Morgan was undoubtedly looking for something of value or he would not risk his life in the business; and It was quite possible that he was employed by Pickering to search for hidden property. This idea took strong hold of me, the more readiiy, I fear, since I had alwaye been asious to see evil in Pickering. There was, to be sare, the unknown alternative heir, but neither she nor Sister Theresa was, I imagined, a person capable of hiring an assassin to kill me. On reflection I dismissed the idea of appealing to the county authorities, and I never regretted that resolution! The seat of Wabana county was 20 miles away, the processes of law were unfamiliar, and I wished to avoid publicity. Morgan might, of course, have been easily disposed of by an appeal to the Anmandale constable, but now that I suspected Pickering of treachery the caretaker's importance dwindled. I had wanted all my life for a chance at Arthur Pickering, and in To be Continued).
