Rest brought him new confidence and almost a feel ing of security. Even so zealous hunter as Gen off could not trace him there, he told himself; only the devil himself could follow that com- plicated trail through the jungle after dark. But, perhaps, the General was a devil. An apprehensive night crawled slow- 1v by like wounded sn: did not Rainsford, although the silence of a dead world was on the jun. Kle. Toward morning when a ding £rav was varnishing the sky, the cry of some startled bird focused Rains- ford's attention in that direction. Something was coming through the bush, coming slowly, carefully, com- ing by the same winding way Rains ford had come. He flattened himself down on the limb, an through a kcreen of leaves almost as thick as tapestry, he watched. The thing t was approaching was a man. It w Zavoff. 1ie made his way along with his eyes fixed In utmost concen tration on the ground before him. He paused, almost heneath the tree, drop. ped to his knees and studied the ground rinsford’s impulse was to hurl himself down like a panther, but he saw that the General's right hand held something metallic—a small auto- matic pistol. The hunter shook his head several times. as if he were puzzled. Then he straightened wp and took from his case one of his black cigarettes: its punzent incenselike smoke floated up to_Rainsford’s nostrils. Rainsford held his breath. The General's eves had left the ground and were tr inch by inch up the tree. rd froze there, every muscle tensed for a spring. But the sharp eyes of the hunter stopped be- fore they reached the limb where Rainsford lay: a smile spread over his brown face deliberately he blew A smoke ring into the air; then he turned his on the tree and walked carelessly away, back along the trail he had come.

Then, as he stepped for- ward his foot sank into the ooze. He tried to wrench it back, but the muck sucked viciously at his foot as if it were a giant leech With a violent effort, he tore his foot loose. He knew where he was now. Death Swamp and its quicksand. His hands were his nerve were tight closed as if something tangible that some one in the darkness was trying to tear from his grip. The softness of the earth had given him an idea. He stepped back from the quicksand a dozen feet or so and, like ne huge prehistoric beaver, he be- gan to dig. Rainsford had dug himself in in France when a second's delay meant death. That had been a placid pas- time compared to his digging now. The pit grew deeper: when it was above his shoulders, he climbed out and from some hard saplings cut stakes and sharpened them to a fine point. These stakes he planted in the bottom of the pit with the points sticking up. With fiving fingers he wove a rough carpet branches and with it he covered the mouth of the pit. Then, wet with sweat and aching with tiredness. he crouched behind the stump of a light- ning-charred tree. He knew his pursuer was coming he heard the padding sound of feet on the soft earth, and the night hreeze brought him the perfume of the Gen eral's cigarette. It seemed to Rains. ford that the General was comnig with unusual swiftness: he not feeling his way along, foot by foot. Rainsford. crouching there, could not see the General, nor could he see the pit. He lived a vear in a minute. Then he felt an mpulse to cry aloud with joy, for he heard the sharp crackle of the breaking branches as the cover of the pit gave way: he heard the sharp scream of pain as the pointed stakes found their mark. He leaped up from his place of concealment. Then he cowered back. Three feet from the pit a man was standing with an electric torch in his hand “You've done well, Rainsford.” the voice of the General called. *‘Your Burmese tiger pit has claimed one of my best dogs. Again vou score. 1 think, Mr. Rainsford, I'll see what you can do against my whole pack. I'm going home for a rest now. Thank vou for a most amusing evening At daybreak Rainsford. Iving near the swamp, was awakened by a sound that made him know that he had new things to learn about fear. 1 distant sound, faint and wave he knew it. It was the bayir pack of hounds Rainsford knew he could do one of two things. He could stay where he was and wait. That was suicide. He could flee. That was postponing the inevitable. For a moment he stood there, thinking. An idea that held a wild chance came to him, and, tighten- ing his belt, he headed away from the swamp. The baving of the hounds drew nearer, then still nearer, nearer, ever nearer. On a ridge Rainsford climbed a tree. Down a watercou not a quarter of a mile away, he could see the bush moving. Straining his eyes, he saw the lean figure of Gen. Zaroff- just ahead of him Ralinsford made out another figure, whose wide shoulders surged through the tall jungle weeds: it was the giant Ivan, and he seemed pulled forward by some unseen force; W DVASOIOUNSeen: force: Getrid of them this safe, sure| ‘way. 8tope the pain at once.

He caught hold of a springy vouns sapling and to it he fastened his hunt ing Kknife. with the blade pointing down the trall; with a bit of wild grapevine he tied back the sapling, Then he ran for his life. The hounds raised theif voices as they hit the fresh scent. Rainsford knew now how an animal at bay feels. He had to stop to get his breath. The bayving of the hounds stopped ab- ruptly, and Ralasford’s heart stopped, to0. " They must have reached the knife. He shinned excitedly up a tree and looked back. His pursuers had stop ped. But the hope that was in Rains- ford’s brain when he climbed died, in the shallow valley that roff was still on his feet. But Ivan was not. The knife, driven by the recoil of the springing tree, had not wholly falled : Rainsford had hardly tumbled to the ground when the pack took up the ry again. “Nerve, nerve, nerve!” he panted, as he dashed along. A blue gap showed between the trees dead ahead. Ever nearer drew the hounds. Rafnsford forced himself on toward that gap. He reached it. It was the shore of the sea. Across a cove he could see the £loomy grav stone of the chateau. Twenty feet below him the sea rum Rainsford hesitated. He heard the hounds. Then he leaped far out into the sea When the General and his pack reach- ed the place by the sea the Cossack stopped. For some minutes he stood regarding the bluegreen expanse of water. He shrugged his shoulders. Then he sat down, took a drink of brandy from a silver flask, lit a per- fumed clgarette and hummed a bit from “Madame Butterfly." Gen. Zaroff had an exceedingly good dinner in his great paneled dining hall that evening. With it he had a bottle of Pol Roger and half a bottle of Cham- bertin. Two slight annoyances kept him from perfect enjoyment. One was the thought that it would be difficult to replace Ivan; the other was that his quarry had escaped him: .of course, the American hadn't playved the game —s0 thought the General as he tasted i must be | hls after-dinner liqueur.
