Warrington whispered the word, as if he feared the world might hear the deadly menace in ais voice. For murder leaped up in his heart is flame leaps up n pine Kindling. The weak young man got to his knees, then to his feet. He steadied himself by clutching the back of a chair. With one hand he felt cf his throat tenderly. "He tried to kill me, the black guard," he croaked. "Craig, it is you! For ten years I've never thought of you without mur der in my heart. Newell Craig, and here, right where I can put my hands upon you! Oh, this old world is email." Warrington laughed. It was a high, thin sound. The young man. looked from his en emy to his deliverer, and back again. What new row was this? Never be fore had he seen the blackguard with that look in his dark, handsome, preda tory face. It typified fear. And who was this big, blond chap whose fingers were working so convulsively? "Craig," said the young man, "you get out of here, and if you ever come bothering me, I'll shoot you. Hear me?" This direful threat did not seem to stir the sense of hearing in either of the two men. Suddenly the blond man caught the door and swung it wide. "Craig, a week ago I'd have throttled you without the least compunction. Today I can't touch you. But get out of here as fast as you can. You might have gone feet foremost. Go! Out of Rangoon, too. I may change my mind." The man called Craig walked out, squaring his shoulders with a touch of bravado that did not impress even the plucked pigeon. Warrington stood listening until he heard the hall door close sharply. ; "Thanks," said the bewildered youth. Warrington whirled upon him sav agely. "Thanks? Don't thank me, you weak-kneed fool!" "Oh, I say, now!" the other pro tested. "Be silent! If you owe that scoun drel anything, refuse to pay it. He never won a penny in his life without cheating. Keep out of his way; keep out of the way of all men who prefer to deal only two hands." And with this advice Warrington 6tepped out into the hallway and shut the door rudely. "Pay the purser and get a box of ci gars," Warrington directed James. "Never mind about the wine. I shan't want it now." James went out upon the errands im mediately. Warrington dropped down in the creaky rocking-chair, the only one in the boarding house. He stared at the worn and faded carpet. How dingy everything looked! What a sordid rut he had been content to lie in! Chance: to throw this man across his path when he had almost forgotten him, forgotten that he had sworn to break the man's neck over his knees! In the very next room! And he nad permitted him to go unharmed simply because his mind was full of a girl he would never see again after tomorrow. What was the rascal doing over here? What had caused him to forsake the easy pluckings of Broadway in ex change for a dog's life on packet boats, in a squalid boarding house like this one, and in dismal billiard halls? Wire tapper, racing tout, stool pigeon, a cheater at cards, blackmailer and traf ficker "in baser things; in the next room, and he had let him go unharmed. Ten years ago and thirteen thousand miles away. In the next room. He laughed unpleasantly. Chivalric fool, silly Don Quixote, sentimental dream er, to have made a hash of his life in" this manner! , He leaned toward the window sill and opened the cage. Rajah .walked out, muttering. , When it was possible, Elsa pre ferred to walk She was young and strong and active, and she went along with a swinging stride that made ob vious a serene confidence in her ability to take care of herself. What the un knowing called willfulness was simply natural independence, which she as-, serted whenever occasion demanded it. She loved to prowl through the strange streets and alleys and stranger shops; it was a joy to ramble about, minus the irritating importunities of guide or attendant. It was great fun, but it was not always wise. There were some situations which only men could successfully handle. Elsa woukl never confess that there had been awkward moments when, being an ex cellent runner, she had blithely taken to her heels. In her cool, white drill, her wide, white pith helmet, she presented a charming picture. The exercise had given her cheeks a bit of color, and her eyes sparkled and flashed like raindrops. This morning she had taken Martha along merely to still her protests. "It's all right so long as we keep to the main streets," said the harried Martha, "but I do not like the idea of roaming about in the native quar ters. This is not like Europe. The hotel manager said we ought to have a man." "He is looking out for his commis sion. Heavens! what Is the matter with everybody? One would think, the way people put themselves out tp warn you, that murder and robbery were daily occurrences in Asia. I've been here four months, and the only dis agreeable moment I have known was caused by a white man." "Because we have been lucky so far, it's no sign that we shall continue so." And Martha shut her lips grimly. Her worry was not confined toythis particu lar phase of Elsa's imperious moods; it was general. There was that blond man with the parrot. She would never feel at ease until they were out of Yokohama, homeward bound. "I feel like a child this morning," said Elsa. "I want to run and play and shout." "All the more reason why you should have a guardian. . . . Look, Elsa!" Martha caught the girl by the arm. "There's that man we left at Manda lay coming toward us. Shall we go into this shop?" "No, thank you! There is no reason why I should hide in a butcher shop simply to avoid meeting the man. We'll walk straight past him. If he speaks well ignore him." "I wish We were In a civilized coun try." "This man Is supposed to be civi lized. Dont let him catch your eye Go on; don't lag." Craig stepped in front of them, smil ing as he raised his helmet. "This Is an unexpected pleasure," Elsa, looking coldly beyond him, at tempted to pass. "Surely you remember me?" "I remember an insolent cad," re plied Elsa, her eyes beginning to burn dangerously. "Will you stand aside?" He threw a swift glance about. He saw with satisfaction that none but natives was in evidence. Elsa's glance roved, too, with a little chill of despair. In stories Warrington would have appeared about this time and soundly trounced this impudent scoundrel. She realized that she must settle this affair alone. She was not a soldier's daughter for nothing. "Stand aside!" "Hoity-toity!" he laughed. He had been drinking liberally and was " a shade reckless. "Why not be a good fellow? Over here nobody minds. I know a neat little restaurant. Bring the old lady along," with a genial nod toward the quaking Martha. Resolutely Elsa's hand went up to her helmet, and with a flourish drew out one of the long steel pins. "Oh, Elsa!" warned Martha. "Be still! This fellow needs a les son. Once more, Mr. Craig, will you stand aside?" Had he been sober he would have seen the real danger in the young woman's eyes. "Cruel!" he said. "At least, one kiss," putting out his arms. Elsa, merciless in her fury, plunged the pin into his wrist. It stung like a hornet, and, with a gasp of pain, Craig leaped back out of range, sobered. "Why, you she-cat!" "I warned you," she replied, her voice steady and low. "The second stab will be serious. Stand aside." He stepped into the gutter, biting his lips and straining his uninjured hand over the hurting throb in his wrist. He had had wide experience with women. His advantage had al ways been in the fact that the general run of them will submit to insult rather than create a scene. This dark eyed Judith was distinctly an excep tion to the rule. Gad! She might , have missed his wrist and jabbed him in the throat. He swore, and walked i off down the street. Elsa set a pace which Martha, with her wabbling knees, found difficult to mai&taiu. , "You. might have killed him!" she, icried breathlessly. "You can't kill that kind of a snake with a hatpin; you have to stamp on Its head. But I rather believe it will be some time before Mr. Craig will again make the mistake of insulting a woman because she appears to be defenseless." Elsa's chin was In the air. The choking sensation in her throat began to subside. "You know and the purser knows what happened on the boat to Mandalay. He was plausible and affable and good look- CONTINUED ON PAGE SIX I CALEDONIA COUNTY. By vote of the 40 residents nf Paddock village in St. Johnsbury, and the following action of the trustees, that place will hereafter be known as Arlington, the decision having been made at meeting Monday night. H. B. Davis was arrested in Ash land, N. H., last week, charged with defrauding Hardwick merchants by using forged checks. Davis is said to have arrived in Ashland with a Mrs. Wheeler, although having a wife and children in Hardwick. Davis escaped the officer once in Ashland but "was recaptured and is now in Caledonia county jail. The contract for the new Methodist church in St. Johnsbury to replace the one burned in January has been award ed to a Boston firm. The plans call for a stone edifice, 60 by 108 feet and Sun day school building in connection. It will be built of granite of Gothic design and calls for an expenditure of upwards of $60,000. It is expected that the new church will be complete in about seven months. Fire supposed to have been caused by tramps smoking in one of the h&y lofts, destroyed five barns on the Cale donia county fair grounds, entailing a loss of $3,000. They were insured for $1,000. As there are no hydrants on the ground, the firemen were unable to cope with the blaze, which spread rapidly, but the more valuable, build ings were saved after strenuous work. As a result of the accidental dis charge of a shotgun in the hands of his brother, June 2, Thomas Rcake, of St. Johnsbury, a boy twelve years old, lost his left eye. The boy was seated opposite the door of his brother Eli's bdrcom The latter was in his room examining a twelve guage shotgun and in some manner the weapon was discharged.
