THE DOUBLE CHANCE
Fatdnati*§ Romance of Wrongly Accused Hero and Layol Sweetheart
BY J. S. FLETCHER
Author of “Royner-Slmde Amalgamation" Me.
(Continued from Yesterday’s Star.)
Thieve* Fall Oat.
. .ERIE’S no need why they
• ■ I should behave otherwise now,
I sir.’" replied the detective.
“Haven't you got one or two
trusty men to whom you could say a
word or two, giving them the hint to
spread the news among the rest of their
fellow workers that everything's all
right y”
Quinton reflected; then he thought
of Black Moses Pogmore. and said he
would go and find him. The result was
that the crowd which gathered around
the court next morning, though much
bigger in dimensions than at the first
hearing, was quiet and orderly, and
chiefly concerned in giving Sir Clin
ton a rousing reception when he came
out —a free man.
Inside, the court was packed to the
doors. The fench was again filled;
there was no room at the solicitors’
table nor anywhere in the well of the
court; the galleries and back benches
were filled to their utmost Os
all the people who had been there be
fore only Marshall Stead was rmssing-
The merely formal proceedings which
led to Clinton's discharge from custody
.were soon over, and then the court be
came a pandemonium from which the
police and officials found it difficult to
make away for the released man and
his cousin. And suddenly Phllllpa. as
in a dream, found herself standing on
the steps outside the court, with Clin
ton on one side of her and Quinton on
the other, and in front a vast-stretch
ing crowd of men in their Sunday best,
who were shouting as if at a popular
Bt. Leger winner. The men would have
a speech—Sir Clinton must speak to
them —they must and would hear his
voice! Then they cheered again, until
he laughingly showed signs of obeying
their will by climbing to the balustrades
and removing his hat.
“Friends and neighbors!" he began.
But what he was going to say was
never said. At that moment a mighty
reverberation, as of the loudest thunder,
hurst, as it seemed, all around them, i
and looking round with blanched faces
men saw a gigantic column of smoke
break from the mouth of the colliery
shaft, and in the moment that followed
a sudden shrill cry pierced every ear:
“The pit! The pit! An explosion at
the pit! And my man's gone down!**
The workings of the Mannersley main
colliery are known to all mining ex
perts and to the men who there tear
their sustenance from the bowels of the
earth to be among the most extensive
In the country, just as the main shaft
is one of the deepest.
Some of the miners who. for lack of
accommodation In Mannersley itself,
had to live In outlying villages or
isolated cottages on the edge of the
parish used to calculate that after de
scending to the bottom of the shaft
thev were obliged to walk Just as far
to the particular spot where they were
then laboring as they had walked from
their own cottage down to the cage
in which they descended. One man in
particular, who had a turn for exacti
tude and locality, affirmed that he had
once worked exactly beneath his own
bit of garden, which was a mile and
three-quarters from the pit brow. The
ramifications of these workings spread
far and wide in all directions. Many
of them were never used or visited,
and Dogger Tandy had therefore
spoken wisely when he told Marshall
Stead that somewhere In their burro'w
llke twistings was the place for him to
hide; he would be as safe there for a
few days as if he had been suddenly
•transplanted to South Africa. And
there Stead was—safe underground.
It had been an easy enough thing to
get him down there and to hide him
away. Once dressed up In an old suit
of Dogger Tandy's pit garments, with
a little elementary make-up to assist
in the disguise, with a food pall In one
hand and a lamp in the other, he had
got down the shaft in the easiest fash
ion possible, nobody paying the least
attention to him.
Down below Tandy proved himself
an excellent guide. He . appeared to
know every Ipch of th&t vast-spread
ing warren In which human beings, half
naked, grimed and blackened with coal
dust, dragged fuel from the earth's
womb with Infinite cost of sweat and
labor to themselves.
It was indeed a warren, thought
Stead, as Tandy hurried him along gal
leries and passages, and be caught
glimpses of forms and lights in all di
rections. It made him feel a momen
tary sensation of queerness to realise
that the green grass, and the fresh
air, and the wide-spreading sky, the
busy village, the winding river, and the
gray castle, were twelve hundred feet
above It.
The disused working of which Tandy
had spoken as being safe and never
visited, was one of which great things
had been expected and never realised.
Dogger Tandy knew how to get Into
It from the main workings without at
tracting attention; It was only a ques
tion of slipping away up this gallery
and down that. He led Stead to the
hiding place he had thought of as surely
as an old mole might have led a young
visitor to the most decent chamber of
its underground castle.
This hiding place was a roofed and
boarded room, which' had been Intended
for an underlookei-s office. Tandy con
trived to get some horse rugs there,
and from the disused stable nearby
he procured a quantity of hay, which
bad been left and was quite dry- The
place was naturally warm enough, and
Stead would do well enough in it in
that respect. They had brought with
them a food supply for a day and a
half— the full extent of time which
they considered it would be necessary
for the fugitive to remain there. And
[ so in this place of darkness Stead was
left.
The experience was not pleasant:
he had te* admit that before he had
been there three hours alone. It was
as if he were fastened up in the mid
dle of the world, with all the world's
weight pressing upon him on every
side. The blackness seemed to tingle
with life; he thought of how awful it
would be if strange shapes materialized
out of It. If it had ,not been that by
cautiously creeping some little distance
along the gallery to a point where he
I could hear tfte distant ring of picks and
shovels and occasionally a shouting
voice, he would have gone mad. The
silence, the sense of oppression, was
awful. He longed to be out again, to
| feel the air and see the sky.
| But when Dogger Tandy came to
visit him in his hiding place the first
i time, that worthy individual shook his
I head as he set his lamp and one he
had brought Stead down on the rough
table which stood in the middle of the
disused office.
“It's no use trying to cut it yet,
guv’nor.” he said, producing a parcel
of food and a number of much-crum
pled newspapers. “You wouldn't be
safe for a moment once you poked your
nose outside the shaft. They’re on to
your track, and no mistake ”
Stead uttered an impatient exclama
tion. "1 can't stay here much longer,"
he said. “I can't!"
Tandy shook his head. “The second
day won’t be as bad as the first, guv'-
nor.” he said. “And. after all. it ain’t
a prison, nor yet a penal servitude es
tablishment. My. but they are keep
ing a bright lookout for you! If so be
as you was the size of a flea, guv’-
nor. I don’t believe you could get out
of Mannersley Just now. No; you must
wait, guv’nor, till the coast's a bit
clear. I've brought enough food and
drink of the best for another day, good,
so you’ll not starve."
Stead took a pull at the content of
the tin bottle which the miner had
brought. He drank feverishly.
“What is being done up there?” he
asked impatiently. “Surely there must
be some way of getting off.”
Tandy folded his arms and crossed
nis legs as he sat down on the edge
of the table.
“There’s a. whole heap of newspa
pers there, guv’nor, as you can read
while the lamp lasts, and that’ll be ten
hours, ’ he said, “and ••
“I wish there was away of escap-
JJJft that dark spell!” interrupted Stead,
"hat s f the worst time of It.’’
“Ah"’ said the miner, spitting on
the floor and shaking his head. “That’s
when /0 u want to go to sleep, guv’nor.

said snappllshly I suppose you know
all there is in them. •
wen nearly all, guv’nor. ”
replied Tandy. *Them newspaper lei
lets has a knack, you know, of worming
their way everywhere and getting to
know everything. What I said was
that, leaving alone whatever 1 can tell
you you 11 see If you read them papers
that you re a done man If you slip out
guv' h nor f " r * <Uy ° r tWO ' That ’» a fact.
And when he had glanced over
the various accounts in the daily news
papers which Tandy had brought him,
that u would, be a very
difficult thing to escape from Manners
ey then j, .** e had, Perforce, to ac-
ShSLJ? 1 * traditions of his plight and to

“How do I know such a reward is

In silence the collier threw down a

to some figures.

the notice through. “And they say it’s
