Hawley on the in- side, and this man Scott without, were waiting to determine when he left the hotel; would probably dog his footsteps to discover’ where he went. Keith loosened his revolver, so as to be assured he could draw quickly, and slipped back into the shadow of the steps, his eyes on the door of the hotel. There was a cold, drizsly rain failing, the streets almost deserted. appearing sodden and miserable where the lights shone forth through saloon windows. One or two men. seeking supper, coat collars turned up and hats drawn low over their eyeS. climbed the rickety steps and went in. but no one came out. Perhaps he was mistaken as to the purpose of those fellows; they may have desired merely to know when he left, or Scott’s return just at that moment might have been an accident. To be sure, the hotel possessed a back exit. but he could not cover both ends of! the building, and must take his: chances. It was too wet and disagree-1 able to remain crouched there, DOW that it was evident there was no 111' tention of following him. With hand on the butt of his gun, suspicious and Watchful, yet with scarcely a faster beat to his heart, Keith straightened “D. and began splashing his way through the mud down the street. He knew where Willoughby would be most likely found at this hourâ€"4W”h cronies at the “Tenderfoot"â€"â€"â€"and he meant to discover the boy, and make him confess to Hope the truth.

Hewley stood leaning sci-met the her, where he could see any one push: through the hall. The eyes of the two men met. but the gambler never moved, never changed his at- titude, although Keith noted that his right hand was hidden beneath the skirts of his long coat. The plains- men drew hack, facing his enemy, un- til he reached the outer door. There was a sneer on"Hawl y's dark sinis- tor face like an invi on, but a mem- ory of the girl he had just left, and her dependence upon him, caused Keith to avoid an encounter. He would fight this aflalr out. in a differ- ent way. As the door opened and he slipped forth into the gloom, he brush- ed against a man apparently Just en- tering. The gleam of light tell for an instant upon the face of the otherâ€"it was Scotty with the red moustache. The hall was deserted, but a few men loltered in the omce. Keith recognized none of the feces, and did not stop to make any inquiries of the clerk. It was growing dark. the lights already burning, and from the plush- ing of drone on the window, it must be raining outside Hewley would surely hsve ended his call upon Miss Mecleire long before this, end left the hotel. However interesting his com: municstion might have proven, she must iill her evening engagement st the Trocsdero, and would require time for supper and rest.

Under sll the circumstenees this wee neturel enough, and he did not blame A Mistake in Assassination. Let his future be what it might, Jack Keith would never again forget the girl who held the door open for his passage with one hand, her other clasped in his. Interested before, yet forcing hi1melf into indifference now that he knew who she really was, the man made i’ull surrender. It Was a struggle that kept him from clasping the slender figure in his arms, and pouring forth the words of tenderness which he sterniy choked back. This was neither the time, nor the place. yet his eyes must have spoken, for Hope‘s glance fell, and her cheeks grew crimson. “Oh. loll.

He could see nothing, but some one was running recklessly ahead of him, and he fired in the direction of the sound, the leaping spurt of flame yielding a dim outline of the fugutive.

He could barely dis~ tinguish the fellows's outlines, giving! l little thought to the occurrence, for the way was unusually black along there, the saloon opposite having shades drawn. Suddenly a flash of red fire spurted into the night, with a sharp report. It was so close at hand | it blinded him, and he flung up one arm over his eyes, and yet, in that single instant. he perceived the whole picture as revealed by the red flame. He saw the man in front go down in: a heap, the projection of the building . from behind which the shot came, the end of a wagon sticking forth into the cent for those streams of saloon lignt shining across pools of water. He stumbled over the irregular ground. occasionally striking patches of wood- en sidewalk or a strip of Cinders.
