BfOT#$tt.5 (" now recognized the way In which his name was treated.. I rode into the reach of forest beyond Venetian and presently came oat up - On a more open spot, where the trees hemmed in 8 piece of ground tufted with bush and bracken. At a turn of the road beyond mo I saw a figure, tseeheingly that of Il clergyman, walk- ing to meet the, As I made this den- tal observation and without a note of warning there came the crack of a gun, and a bullet plowed a ridge in the grass before the horse's belly. The beast reared and came down upon his Staunches, nearly throwing me, and I was aware that the man in front was running toward me, shouting. As I steadied the horse my eyes went in an- other direction and lit upon Sercombe stalking easily toward me, with a gun •upon his arm. The two men came Up to me about the same time. "I hope there is no•accldent," gasped the clergyman. Sercoznbe put out his band. "Good afternoon, liar. Morgan," said he, "How do you do, Greatorex?" he continued coolly. "No, I am glad to gay there's no harm done, is there, Greatorex? But it's all my fault. This infernal undergrowth diverted the shot. I hope It did not scare you too much?" Ire asked, smiling at me. I was too much, astounded and far too indignant for words. "I thought I'd got the bare all right" be resumed .amiably to the elergyman. "Lucky for you, Greatorex, as well as for me." end then turning to me, "Do you know • Mr. Morgan, the vicar of Llanellan? My friend, Mr, Greatorex, you know— lately succeeded to, the castle yonder. 'A, fine property. T envy him." His impudence was startling. Here was a man who had just made a bare - laced attempt upon my life (for that twos how I conceived it), and heewas .engrossing the conversation upon friendly terms and in the most cheer- ful spirit between his intended victim .and the stranger who had all but eau - .ally witnessed his atrocious' act of ireachery. The bare audacity had left me gaping at the outset of the en- counter, but the very process of his iieasy talk served to give me my wits again, and I was able to meet him up- on his own terms, which I did, deliv- ering a long, keen glance at him. "I am afraid you are an indifferent sportsman, Captain Sercombe," said I after I had acknowledged the introduc- tion ceremoniously. "You do better with the rod than with the gun. I see I must take you in hand for a lesson. ?When you see me shoot I shall shoot -straight, even if the enemy be a bare." Sercombe laughed and patted my horse's flank. The vicar looked from lone to the other in some bewilderment, ;well he might, for we had disposed a curious incident somewhat cava- ,aierly. • "I am pleased to have made your ae- iluaintance, Mr. Greatorex," said he. e'And I trust we shall see more of each )tier." ', In my heart I hoped not, but I gave Ulm the proper rejoinder, and, taking .roti his hat, he moved away. Sercombe and I were left upon the roadway con- fronting each other. "And now, sir," saki I quietly,, "will lou be good enough tO tell me what ,this means, and why yoti shoot at bares with bullets?" "Let me walk with you a iittle way," •responded the captain, shouldering bis ;gun. Suiting his action to the iuvita- i,kion, he marched beside me. ""It Is every plain, Mr. Greatorex," said he eleasantly. "It means that you must llaave a lesson, but I need not assure 'YOU that I bear no 111 will to you.

As it was, the revolv- er lay to my band in my coat pocket, and I took my Course forthwith. R'hip- ping round the horse, I drew one. pre- sented the weapon at lits heart. "You will do me the favor, Captain Sercombe," saki I sharply, "to hand over your cartridges." An indefinite expression of surprise passed over his face. Ile Was evident- ly taken aback, and hts high color strengthened. "Oh, come, my dear sir," saki be. "I ask you toconsider if it be worth while. For any own part, I have no desire to fire in your back, nor dare I if I had. You see, I ant plain with yeu," He certainly was, and I saw at once that : need fear no more for the prep- ent—at least from the captain. "Very well,"said I. "I am glad you agree with me," he remarked. "It is a saving of dignity." I said no more, but whipped up the horse and left him, with, a mocking bow, which he returned gravely, and the last I saw of biro eves his bulky, form leaning upon the gun and assid- uously followittg me with his dull and fishy eyes. I put up the horse at the Swan and hurried to the station, barely in time to catch the London train. I took riiy ticket bastily and, rushing down the platform, cast about me precipitately for a first class carriage, The guard had retired to the back part of the train and stood impatiently, Sag in hand. I came upon two compartments of the class I wished and gave a hur- ried glance into each. The one appette- ed empty, but the other already con-, tained two or three travelers. This latter, however, was labeled "Smok- ing," and for a second or two I waver- ed in tine balance until a sharp "Now, then, sir!" from the guard finally whip- ped up my decision. I opened the door of the smoking carriage, but as I did set a man rudely stumbled against me, and 'I fell against the next compart- ment, the door of which had dust • been opened by a third person. In the flurry of the moment I merely remember get- ting etting back my clutch upon the handle, and the next instant 1 was fn the smoking carriage, somewhat hot and angry. Out of the window by which I sat I saw in the tail of my eye the two men stepping swiftly into the next compartment, and something vaguely, troubled my senses. I settled • into the eushione as the train drew out of the station and look- ed about at my companions. Then my mind returned to the landscape, which Was now passing pretty swiftly. It struck me in a Sash what was exer- cising my mind, A squint—that was it! Mrs. Main had described the in- truder of the morning as a nian with a "squint—funny-like." And the man who had got into the next carriage was.a man 'with a squint. The coinci- dence was only remarkable because I was in a veritable net of suspicion, And when I examined the particulars it was his companion who Lod jostled me—I might, to be thoroughly suspi- cious, say shoved me. Why had I been shoved? Perhaps it was an acci- dent, and the two men had no relation to eaeh other, nor the second man with the squint to Mrs. Main's friend. ° But, on the other hand, that shove came near sending me through the open doorway of the next carriage, and but for my own obstinacy I might now be seated in the seclusion of that car- riage with my two neighbors in an ex- press that did not stop for forty miles. At Paddington I took a cab. I could see the titan with the squint nowhere, and I reeked for him pretty sharply. His companion's face I had not seen, and should not, of course, recognize again. It Was quite possible that they bad been passengers to au intermediate station only, in which case, as X con- ceived, I bad been using my imagina- tion In vain. It was by this time a lit- tle after 6, and, as the dead season had felly set in, the streets in the West end were bare of carriages, but a con- course of people still streamed along the pavements—tete tide of life ran, to all appearance, as populous as ever. When I reached my chambers in the 1 recopnfecal that horrid squint. Temple I Made a more suitable toilet for the town, and, that completed, found my watch stoed at 7;30.

I saw at once that my plans must be veleta. These urea were after the piece of parchment 1 had In my pocket. I began to feel ilesperete. I reit the pocketbook muter my hand. I certainly could not think 1 of leaving it, as I had intended, In nay rognus, for if I knew anything of these gentry I should return to find the place rifled. There •was little they would stick at, as I had had proof. I made up my mind to try for Sheppard, It was possible that he was in town, and in any ease I would not leave the domu- mestt off my person. In the meantime • I was feeling ectrernely Hungry and was resolved to make a meal. It was certain the scoundrels would not assail 1110 in the open. I scrutinized the court as I came out, but naturally the spies were not likely to show themselves. Then I drove to the Cafe Royal and enjoyed an excel- lent dinner. morn where I sat In the dining room I had a view through an open floor of the great hall beyond, in which the representatives of a dozen nationalities drank and chattered and played their dominos. Halfway ! through toy areal .I looked Up, and ' tlwre was my friend unobtrusively shi- ning a glass of ver'muth right onpo- tte the oeeeway. to tva;? plain that 1 •ns followed still, as I hue suspected ould be the case.

I turd a good iew of the fellow, and as I leisurely :rank my wine I watched him, • Clear- ,y 1 was to have an adventure for my pains, and the first thing was to run Sheppard to earth. „When I got out into the street I was .onaCious that the man was belilntl me, :aid, turning quickly, I confronted hint. My action was so abrupt that it took :tint by surprise, but he took off fats hat li)litely and with a "I'ardou, sir!" in a :,lightly foreign accent, avoide,' co!- iision that had been imminent I Jumped into a cab and drove sttaight to Sheppard's rooms in Down street. As luck would have it, he was out, but it was a relief to fed that he was in town. According to the maid, be was to be back in the morning. In consid- erable disappointment I ran clowu the stairs and banged the front door, and there was my man across the roadway. I confess that I began for the first time to have the feeling of being bunt- ed. I strode over to him. "What the devil• do you want?" I asked angrily. "Siri" said he and looked up at me as if in surprise. ' Wbat the devil do you want?" I re- peatetl. There was a slight pause, and with my hand in my pocket I ostentatiously cocked the revolver. The faint click caught his ear. "I am desirous to walk about the street, sir," he said softly. "I have made up my mind 'to see London by night. It is vfr' beautiful." "Very well," thought I, for it. was plainly of no use to deal with the res- eal. "You may walk• as much as you like. I am for a cab." And into a cab again I jumped. "Drive—west—anywhere," said I at Inst to the questioning cabman, "III you." I had this dilemma now before =— that I dared not go b. k to my rooms. The risk was too extravngaut. And the question as to where I was to pass the nigbt became important, as it was now past 1i. Of course I could go to a hotel, Where 1 should be compara- tively safe, but I had no fancy to spend the long hours of darkness awake and on my guard on the chance that this scoundrel would Make an attempt on nay room. No, I must be rkl of him first. As the cab drove off I creeped through the little window at the back and saw my squinting friend in con- versation with another man, no doubt the second of the gang. The cal) passed through Knights - "'ridge and toward Kensington, and then I turned the driver through the park for Bayswater. Presently I was aware of a rattling behind and looking Out through my spy hole again percelye Pneumonia from a Cold INIUIVCCNIA is second only to consumption in the number of deaths which it causes, and like con- sumption always has its beginning with a cold.

A stern chase is a long chase" I faney my cabman must have thought me near upon a lunatic. I chopped and changed ]tis dir°eetioue a dozen times, and during the nest two hours we visited quite half of the me- tropolis. You will doubtless dub me a foot in 'that I didn't forthwith take the shelter of the law and put,myself under safe custody. But I had two reasons against that—the one, that I bad a sort of informal bargain with Sercombe not to bring, the authorities into this feud, but to fight out a private war; the oth- er, that I would see these scoundrels in the Infernal regions before I sur- rendered to them. And when you come to think of It, to call in the police for Delp in the distinctly illegal job which occupied me would hardly be in taste. So there was nothing for it but the road, and the road it was for the next two hours and more. By that time my cab horse, a fine upstanding chestnut, bad fairly run himself down, and so I hoped had my pursuers' cab. But Of this I could not be eertaiu, and, In any ease, it was not their•object to provoke an open fracas. Aa I imagined, they merely sought to run nue to earth some- where. And it was obvious by now that I could not strive about in cabs all night. Somewhere between 1 and 2 I found myself again in Kensington, or, rather, in that region of respectable, desolate and gloomy houses lying about Glou- cester road. The chase had to end somehow. We drove up a road dimly lighted and narrow. I suppose my cab- man must have been almost as weary .as I, and probably more sleepy. At any rate, I had ceased to guide him for some time. Ile had taken the initiative himself, constituting himself, I con- ceive, the guardian of this harmless lu- natic. At all events, it was soon plain that we bad entered a cul -cis -sat. The situation pricked my resolution to the proper point of action. As it fell out, a flare of gas streamed from the fan lights in a large and commodious house near the bottom of the road, seeming to show that the inmates bad not yet retired, and, acting on my resolution in a second, I stopped the man and jumped` out before the door. As I did so the second cab also came to a pause. My cab turned slowly round and stop- ped abreast of his fellow, I would swear I saw the two figures alight. God knows what the cabmen made of it all. I putted at the bell, but for a time could get no answer. But at lust, and in response to a louder peal than usual', the door was opened, and there confronted me a tall, slight man some- thing near my own age in evening dress, "Who the devil may yon be?" says be, surveying me from iop to toe with a puzzled look. "Sir," said 1, "tilts ! to place upon yonr doorstep to eapla-.t to you. But I am in immediate nee 1 of a kindly hand, and If you will bave the goodness to bear with are and allow me two minutes In your private roans I make rig doubt that I can satisfy you." "Faith," said he, smiling rather fool- ishly, "If it is a Itand you want, you must needs look for one steadier than mine." And, true enough, there he was sway- ing somewhat unsteadily upon bis legs and presenting ins a Saco flushed with the use of liquor. But this was no Moment for parleying, and I pressed my poral promptly, "Then, prey, let rue sintt the door for yon," said I, stepping in fortltwitlr. And without more ado 1 closed the great floor with a bang. Ire led the way docilely enough into a neighboring room and, turning up the gas, faced Inc. "Ibis Is all very well," says he more soberly, "But I have still to learn who the devil you lusty be." "'My name, sir, is immaterial," I re- plied. "Lint it is your services I Want in a certain crisis, and if you be a gen- tionlan. as I see you are, I shall have no doubt of the issue," He stared at me for some moments in silenee.

Pray charge your glasses," Ilaif a dozen young gentlemen were spread about the huge room, some at a card table, and a generous row of bot- tles testified to the dominant occupa- tion of the evening. A vacuous but hearty laugh greeted this. "I must explain to you, gentlemen," continued my host, lighting another cigar, "that Mr.—Mr. 'Mat's-his—this gentleman is engaged in the perilous task of escaping from a hostile urine - went outside. And it is our duty, I need not say, as English gentlemen to rescue him." A wild hooray from the party was the salutation with which this senti- ment was met. "The officers of the law, gentlemen," continued my host, pouring out a glass of spirit with an unsteady hand, "are even now at our gates, preparing to batter down the portcuIIis. Gentlemen, if I ask you to stand by us, shall I ask in vain?" A unanimous negative, shouted at the ceiling, greeted his question, As a slight silence ensued I thought it my time to venture for myself, "In the circumstances, gentlemen"— said I suavely.

An interval of silence ensued, which one of his companions chose to break on his own account by starting up and shouting: "Let us go and break up the foe, Johnny."

'For years a martyr,' is how Chas H.

Ile oontinnes: "I was induced to try Anti Pill by reading the testimony of some one who had been cured of constipation by it.
