"We‘ll show ‘em we mean business, anyhow." As he spoke a bullet whizzed past Lorrimore‘s ear. and the gallant beast rose and cleared the hollow like a bird on the wing. As he did so someone dashed in front of him, but not so swiftly that Lorrimore had dared to run the risk of shooting something lying across the saddle. In Lord Lorrimore‘s blood was up; he could see before him, in the space beâ€" tween the trees, the ranger riding for dear life. Between him and them stretchâ€" ed a natural fosse, and in cooler moâ€" ments Lorrimore never would have dreamed of taking it, but now without hesitation he let his horse have his head, A volley of bullets corroborated his assertion, and one of the vigilantes fell from his saddle. "Lie low, sir," said the eaptain. "The whole gang‘s here, and the fun‘s begun." The captain also saw him, and putting his hand to his mouth, shouted: "Stop, or I‘ll fire!‘ ‘ The ranger dug spurs into his horse, and, the captain firing, the man threw up his hands and fell backward. As if they were racers who had been waiting for the word "go," the excited men charged forward. Utterly regardless of the overhanging branches and the thick undergrowth, Lorrimore urged his horse on at full speed, though, indeed, the animal, with a horse‘s quick instinet, was aware that it was chasing something, and needed no urging. Presently they heard the sound of horses in front of them, and Lorrimore‘s heart gave a bound as he saw one of the rangers tearing througt a glade. _ "Spread yourselves ou.t:â€â€™ 7h;7lâ€"li;i-,.'â€""lnd go for ‘em. They‘re on ahead." The captain pulled up presently, and, bending down till his head was below his horse‘s neck, listened intently. Then he waved his hand to right and left. "What I want to do is to take them by surprise. I‘ve laid myself out to haul these fellows into Wildfall alive. They shall have a fair trial and as much jusâ€" tice as they can hold." Lorrimore held his chafing horse in hand with difficulty. "For God‘s sake, let us ride on!" exâ€" elaimed Lord Lorrimore. The captain held ug his hand. "No hurry, sir," he said, with the coolness of a man accustomed to such seenes. "Great Heaven!" he woman‘s voice." "You‘re right, sir, it eaptain. The face.

He was on his feet in a moment, and almost at the same instant the rest of the vigiâ€" lantes were awakened and on the aie.t. Lord Lorrimore, startled from a dream of Audrey, looked arouna contfusealy ; it was ditficult to reai‘ze where nhe was. "It‘s them seoundreis," said the capâ€" tain of the vigilantes. "If luck‘s with us we‘ve got ‘em this time. Quiet‘s the word!" And he sprang into his saddle. *‘Steady, boys,‘ he said, in a low voice. "Let no mau fire till he gets the word from me." They rode forward quickly but cauâ€" tiously. The sound of firing {nd ceased, but suddenly there rose from the dense stillness of the wood a piercing, heartâ€" ‘ broken shriek. Then he fell forward on his face all was silent. "Syivia!l Sylvia!" rang through‘ the woods, and her answering ery came back, "Jack! Jack!"

He had forgoten all about the fight, so engrossed was he by Sylvia. but he Three or four men quickly eut down some branches and deftly formed a litâ€" ter which would not have disgraced an ambulance society. "Yes. sir." said the captain. "A doctor‘s what she wants. The poor girl is just dead with fright. Look alive, my mea, and let‘s have a litter." He lifted Sylvia from the horse and «upported her on his knee. A man proâ€" duced a water flask and Lorrimore bathâ€" ed her forehead and tried again to get some brandy through her teeth. He may have sueceeded for he fancied that he felt her heart futter beneath his hand. "We must get her to the as possible." he said. What should he do. He called trucly for help, but in his headlong race he had crossedl the plain and left the wood from which they had started far behind. and his cry met with no response. _ He took her in his arms and carried aer to his horse.

Lorrimore placed Sylvia in the saddle, and, supporting her so that her head rested on his shoulder, he led the horse slowly and carefully back toward the wood him The sight of her youth and beauty and the terror which, though she was still unconscious. was depicted on the lovely face touched him to the heart. _an oath which expressed his disappoint _ment and impotent rage, he pulled up and dropped Sylvia from the saddle. The horse. relieved of vpart of its burden, dashed forward with renewed energy. Lord Lorrimore‘s heart stood still as he saw the girl fall, and in an instant was set up within his breast the proâ€" blem, Which should he do. Follow the ranger or stay with his vietim. Only for an instant did he hesitate. He pulled up, fired a shot at the flying man, then leaped from his horse and bent over Sylvia. The moon shone full upon her white, upturned face, and he was startled to find that what he had taken for a woman was but a young girl. He rorsed her head upon his knee and ‘ried to pour some brandy from his flask through her clencked teeth. \ Lorrimore was drawing nearer and nearer; Lavarick could almost feel the rope around his throat. Suddenly, with The horse made a «purt but it was only a spurt, and Lavarick knew that he must be overtaken before he could reach the wood. He look»d down at Sylâ€" via and back at the prisoner. That he should be hung within, say, twentyâ€"four hours of his capture he knew was as cerâ€" tain as that the moon was shining above him. A string of eurses flowed from his lips and with one hand he tried to open Sylvia‘s dress at the throat, but she was lying face downward and without stopping the horse it was impossible to move her. By this time Lorrimore was almost enjoying himself, and he would have been at the height of enoymentjâ€"for a man hunt is, of all things, the most exâ€" citingâ€"but that the sight of the helpless figure lying across Lavarick‘s saddle soâ€" bered him with anxiety. He was gaining still, though slightly and wild exultation rose within him as he saw that the double burden was beâ€" ginning to tell upon the ranger‘s horse. Lavarick knew that his horse was failâ€" ing, and he ground his teeth and swore as he savagely dug his «purs into the animal‘s reeking sides. He knew that he was better mounted, and an evil smile twisted his ug‘ly mouth, but the smile disappeared as he heard the thud, thud of the pursuer‘s horse more distinetly. Lorrimore was gaining on him. They drew nearer the dark outline of the wood. Lorrimore, though he guessed nothing of Lavarick‘s intended subterâ€" fuge, felt somehow that he must stop the man before he left the plain. The plain was not of very great exâ€" tent, and Lorrimore saw a dafk line of trees which formed the entrance to a wood similar to that which they had just left. It was to this Lavuricfc was making, and if he could only gain it he would be able to put into practice a favorite dodge. He intended to dismount, turn his horse loose, and hide himself and Sylvia in the undergrowth, counting upon Lord Lorrimore following the riderâ€" less horse. | up for an instant, took the line Lavarick | was going, saw t}xt he was striking for | the plain, aad, m king a slight detour, emerged from the wood at the same time ‘us lavarick, but of course at a different point. It was now an open race. Lavarick looked round, seanned the horse and rider purguing him, and, drawing his revolver, levelled it at Lorrimore, but, hampered by his lifeless burden and the pace at which he was going, he could not take acurate aim, and no harm was done. It would be very difficult to tell what it cost Lorrimore to refrain from sendâ€" ing a bullet into the scoundrel‘s back, but the Englishman‘s repugnance . to shooting a man from behind held his hand, and he contented himself with riding as rapidly as possible. A hideous din of firing and yelling sounded behind him, but Lorrimore scarcely heard it; it was this man with the helpless woman in his grasp whom he wanted and meant to have. ne nad daied to ruu tie 7 her instead of the ma thiug for it but to £ re had d 10inCn na n fresh, wher was rather rIuc that ) the goug hereas that mied ‘ll) ./\ Anotber Modern Miracle sacll| _ Paralysis Pormanently Cured. ity 1" C "Small doses and big fees."
