An evil smile lit up the French- man’s pallid face. He'pull-cd on his knife with a flourish and hissed â€"J‘Thcn die yourself, you fool!” He advanced upon Jack with a murderous look in his face. Talbot awaited him, and he, too, smiled. “You are a liar and a coward to the end I” he cried. .. At that instant a cold, clear v01ce rang out among the trees, close bc- hind the two men. - “Halt!” it cried. Both men involuntarily paused and turned their eyes to learn whence came this strange interrupâ€" tion: Brett quietly came a few paces nearer. He held a revolver significantly at Dubois" breast. “Drop that knife,” he said with an icy determination in tone and manner that sent a cold shiver through his hearcr’s spine. “Drop it, or I will shoot you this instant!” ' Dubois felt that the game was up. He flung down the knife and tried even then to laugh. “Of course,” he sneered, “as I am cornered on all sides I give in.” Brctt still advanced until he reached the spot where the knife lay. He picked it up, and at the same instant lowered the revolver. Then he observed, with the easy indifference of one who remarks upon the weatherâ€" “Now, you can fight, monsieur. My young friend, here is determined to thrash you, and you richly dc- scrve it. So I will not interfere. But just one word before you be- gin. Two can play at the game of bluff.

Palermo was in a perfect ferment. Not since the last revolution had people seen such a pitched battle in the streets, for Macpherson and his myrmidons had used no gentle means to pacify Gros Jean and the f quality. having “ ST. 66 to go to sea for many days. An excited mob of people sur- rounded the hotel when Brett and Talbot arrived with their wounded prisoner. Fortunately the Chief of Police came in person to ascertain the cause of all this turmoil. The ‘ first alarmist report that reached his ears made out that a species of international warfare had broken out in the harbor. He told his subordinates to clear away the crowd, and explanations _, by Brett and Winter soon demon- strated the wisdom (f an ollicial communique to the Press that the row on the pier was merely the. out- come of a quarrel between some intoxicated sailors. The Chief of Police politely of- fered to place detectives at the dis- posalof the Englishman for the proper custody of their captive.

The Frenchman’s right arm was broken near the wrist. ‘/ Then Talbot proceeded to wreak his vengeance on him. Unques- tionably he would have strangled the man had not Brett interfered, for with his left hand he clutched Dubois’ throat, whilst with the right he endeavored to demolish his features. But the barrister, as- sisted by the Italian pilotâ€"whose afterâ€"life was cheered by his ability to relate the details of this Hom- eric fightâ€"â€"pulled the young man from off his insensible foe. Talbot regained his feet. Pant- ing with exertion, he glared down at the prostrate form, but Brett, being practical-minded, knelt by the Frenchman’s side, tore open his shirt, and unfastened the preci- ous belt. “At last!” he murmured. he will be quite unable to be moved for several days. His right arm is broken, and his face has been re- duced to a pulp. There is a stout Frenchman named Beaucaire and three Turks who accompanied him, whom I recommend to your safe custody.

It was the first time he had ad- dressed Talbot by his familiar and Christian name. The very sound brought back the other man to a conscious state of his surroundings. and in the same instant a great weakness came over him, for the ' terrible exertions of the past few minutes had utterly exhausted him. “I can not even thank' you, for. I am done up. But I owe it all to you, old man. If it had not been for you we should never have found him.” , Brett’s grave face wrinkled in a kindly smile. “I think,” he said, “we are even on that score. If you had not fol- lowed this rascal he might have es- ‘ caped at the finish, and my pride would never have recovered from the shock. However, go and sit down for a minute or two and you will soon pull yourself together. The Frenchman regained consci- ousncss. _ “Be good enough to remain quite still, M. Dubois,” said Brett sooth- ingly. “You have reached the end of your rope, and we do not even need to tie you.” With the aid of some handker- chicf’s and a couple of saplings cut by the Italian he managed roughly lto bind the fractured limb. Then he assisted Dubois to his feet. “Come,” he said, "we are re- gretfully compelled to bring you uck to tmvn, but we will endeavor-I to make the journey as comfortable I as possible for you.
