Pausing at the top, she turned and looked down. "We are grateful for your efforts Just the same. Good night." "Oh, I'm not going," said the young man. "If you stick, I'll do the same."

"Well, then, put out the light I'll stand at that front window, and when my eyes get used to the darkness I'll be able to see them before they reach the gate." She did as directed, taking her place beside Lim at the opening, while the Judge crept in and sat upon the bed, lis heavy breathing the only sound in the room. The two young people stood so cloge to each other that the sweet scent of her person awoke in him an almost irresistible longing. He forgot her treachery again, foryot that she was another's, forgot all save that he loved het truly and purely, with a love which was ike an agony to him. Her shoulder Lrashed his arm; be heard the soft rustling of her garment at her -f breast as she Ureathed. Some one passed in the street and she laid a hand upon hin fearfully. It was very cold, very tiny and very soft, but he made no move to take it. The mo- ments dragged along, still, tense, inter: minable. Occasionally she leaned to- ward bim, and he stoopedl to cateh her whispered words. At such times her breath beat warm against his cheek, aud he closed his teeth stubbornly, Out in the night a wolf dog saddened the air, then came the sound of others wrangling and soarling in a nearby corral, This 18 a chickless Jand and no cock crow breaks the midnight peace.

Suddenly a man came running down the planked pavemeut and into the group. 3 "McNamara's gone and so's the mar- shal aud the rest," he panted. There was a moment's silence, and then the leader growled to his men, "Scatter out and rush the house, boys." He raised his voice to the man In the window. "This Is your work, you damned turn- coat" His followers melted away to right and left, vaulted the fence and dodged into the shelter of the walls. The click, click of Glenister's Winches- ter sounded through the room, while the sweat stood out on him. He won- dered if he could do this deed, if he could really fire on these people. He wondered If his muscles would not wither and paralyze before they obey- ed his command. Helen crowded past him and, lean- lug half out of the opening, called loudly, her voice ringing clear and true: "Wait! Walt a moment! I have something to say. Mr. Glenister did not warn them. They thought you were going to attack the mines, and so they rode out there before mid- night. 1 am telling you the truth, really. They left hours ago." It was the first sign she Wad made, and they recognized her to a man, There were uncertain mutterings be- low till a new man raised his velce. Both Roy and Helen recognized Dex- try. "Boys, we've overplayed. We don't want these peoplé--McNamara's our meat. Old ba™ face up yonder has to do what he's told, and Io ag'in this twenty to one midnight work. I'm goin' home." There were some whis- perings, then the driginal spokesman called for Judge Stillman. The old man tottered to the window, a palsied, terror stricken object. The girl was glad he could not be seen from below. "We won't hurt you this time, judge, but you've gone far emough, We'll give you another chance; then, if you don't make good, we'll stretch you to a lamp post. Take this as a warning." "I sshall do my d-d-duty," sald the judge. The men disappeared Into the dark- ness, and when they had gone Glenis- ter closed the wiudow, pulled down the shades and lighted a lamp. He knew by how narrow a margin a tragedy had been averted. If he had fired on these men, his shet would have kindled a feud which would have consumed every vestige of the court erowd and himself among them. He would have fallen under a false banner, and his life would not hdve reached te the next sunset. Perhaps it was forfeit now. He could not tell. The vigilantes would prebably look upon his part ss traitorous, and at the very least he had cut himself off from their support, the only support the northland offered him. Henceforth he was a renegade, a pariah, hated alike by both factions. He purpesely avoided sight of. Stillman and turned his back when the Judge extended his hand with expressions of gratitude. His work was dene, and he wished to leave this house. Helen fol lowed hha down to the door and as he opened it laid her hand upon his sieeve, "Words are feeble things, and T can never make amends for all you've done for us."

She returned to the judge, who was iu a pitiable state, and for a long time she Ixbored to soothe him as though he were a child. She undertook to question him about the things which lay uppermost in ber mind and which this night had half revesied, but he became fretful and Irritated at fhe mention of mines and mining. She sat beside his bed till he dozed off, puz- zling to discover what lay behind the hints she had heard till her brain and body matched Iu sbsolute weariness. The reflex of the day's excitement sap- ped her strength till she could barely ereep to her own couch, where she rolled and sighed, too tired to sleep at once. She awoke finally, with one last nervous fiicker, before complete oblivion took hér. A sentence was on her mind--it almost seemed as though she had spoken it aloud: "The handsomest woman in the north--but Glenister ran away." CHAPTER XVI, T was nearly noon of the next day when Helen awoke to find that McNamara had ridden fn from the creek aud stopped for breakfast with the judge. He had asKed for her, but on hearing the tale of the night's adventure would not allow her to be disturbed. Later he and the judge had gone away together. Although her judgment approved the step she had contemplated the nizht before, still the girl now felt a strange reluctance to meet McNamara. It is true that she knew no ill of him except that implied in the accusations of cer tain 'embittered men, and she was aware that every strong and aggressive character makes enemies In direct pro portion to tke qualities which lend him greatness. Nevertheless she was aware of an Inner conflict that she had not foreseen. This man who =o c¢om- fidently believed that she would marry him did not dominate her conscious ness. She had ridden much of late, taking long solitary gallops beside the shim mering sea that she loved so well or up the winding valleys into the foot- hills where echoed the rour of swilt waters or glinted the flash of shovel blades. This morning her horse was lame, so she determined to walk. In her early rambles she had looked tim- idly askance at the rough men She met till she discovered their genuine re- spect and courtesy. The most un- kempt among them were often college bred, although for that matter the roughest of the miners showed abun- daut consideration for a woman. So she was glad to allow the men to talk to her with the fine freedom inspired by the new country aud its wide Spaces. The wilderness breeds a chiv- alry all its own. Thus there seemed to be no danger abroad, though they had told the girl of mad dogs which roamed the city, expldining that the hot weather affects powerfully the thick coated, shaggy "malamoots." This is the land of the dog. and, whereas In winter his lot 18 to labor and shiver and statve, In sum- mer he loafs, fights, grows fat and runs mad with the heat, Helen walkeu far and. returdug, chose an unfamiliar course throvgh the outskirts of the town to avoid meeting any of the women she knew because of that vivid memory of the night before. As she walked swifily along she thought that she heard faint cries far behind her. Looking up. slie noted that it was a Jonely, barren quarter and that the only figure In sight was a' woman some distance away. A few paces farther on the shouts recurred. more plainly this time, and a gon shot sounded. Glane- ing back, she saw several wen run ning, one bearing a smoking revolver, and heard nearer stifl the snarling hubbub of fighting dogs. In a flash thie girl's curiosity became horror, fur as she watched one of the dogs made a sudden dash through the now sul dued group of animals and ran swiftly along the planking on which she stood. It was a handsome specimen of the Eskimo malamoot--tall, gréy and coats ed like a wolf, with the speed. strength and cunning of its cousin. Its bela hung low and swung from side to side as it trotted. the motion flecking foun and slaver. The créature Lad scattered the pack and now. swift, menacing, relentless, was comhig toward ITelen.
