The judge recolled, struck the back of his <nee against the edge of his swivel chalr and sat down heavily within it. The force jogged the spectacles low on lis chin, and the knowledge that he had appeared ungraceful made him scowl to re- cover his lost ground. “Ah," said he, “then You're the one that 1've heard of — that lives all by herself with a silent man for a father?

A few 0od oozed out as he con- and the ng untll I After that, to rest the aching! nerves of the hand, he lay on his back on the bed and ran his eyes over the cracks on the celling. There he lay untll the darknes was complete, And when he began | to move agaln it was with such a faltering slowness that indeed he seemed a feeble old fellow who has lived out the appointed three-score | and ten, instead of a burly and vigorous man in the latter prime of life. | However, what he was doing had a'significance which was young enough., He was looking to his re- volver. And he was looking to it in the utter blackness of the dark! His fingers seemed to have eyes for that work. They worked swift- | ly, and yet were unhurried. The big weapon was first uploaded, and then it was taken apart all in the dark, and all {n the dark it was re- assembled, the shells inserted | agaln, and the cylinder was spun. | And the action was as smooth as silk When his gun was ready and loaded once more he was still not ready, He lighted a lamp, drew his | | shade, and spent an hour in a | strange practice, which consisted of | | jerking the gun from the holster |'on his thigh with lightning speed | and leveling it at some object in the room, which might be the knob of the door or the high light which {lay along the rim of the bowl on | the washstand. Then he began to | walk softly to and tro in the room, inn«l when the impulse moved him | he jerked his weapon and whirled, | | | aiming it again, They were adroit movements, but | always they appeared to disappoint | Haines. And finally he went to the | stained and cracked mirror, and, holding the lamp above his head, | he examined his face with a care | which plainly showed that hel econ- | | sidered himself an old man. | After he set down the lamp he clapped a hat on his head, how- ever, and went stralght down the stairs to the rear of the hotel, and thence to the stable which was be- | hind it. There he entered a stall in which was a great black stallion, la giant of his Kind, yet bullt for peed as wel las strength. In the days of old ha could have galloped at high speed with all the crush- ing impost of a knight in full ar- mor upon his back | Even the solid bulk | man as Lee Haines would be noth- of 80 big a | Joyous | made his mood of the moment dark ing to his strength. He saddled the great black horse, arranged the pack behind the saddle, all with the consummate care of one who knows that little detalls count most in big affairs, and then led the spirited animal out and mounted. His journey led stralght down the street of the village where the greatest number of eyes would fall upon him, but the moment he was clear of the outskirts of the town he turned to the left and made a swift seml-circle which brought him back to the vicinity of the jail Here he dismounted. There was a thicket behind th: building, Here he threw the reins of the black horse and dlsmounted: and as he did so he heard a girl's voice singing not far away a Mexl can waltz song: “Que viva la rumba; Que viva, que viva placer.” He listened to the singing for moment. There was something t and careless in It that 1 er than ever. She might be stil singing, this happy passer-by, whei guns were sounding In the jail, After that he went forwanr again, circled the building, anc came to the front entrance.
