Vona, undeterred by her treatment, had followed closely on Starr's heels. She urged them to hurry, calling hysterically. Again the man ahead fumbled at what seemed to be solid wall. Again he was able to open a door of concrete. But Britt, when he was through the narrow door in the lead, was blocked and stopped. He lighted a match.

And in a minute I want you to climb on the pinto and ride around behind them rocks and wait for me. Take Rabbit with you. Act like you was going for help, or was scared and running away from a corpse. You get me? I'll crawl over there after a little." "W-why? Are you hurt so you can't walk?" Helen May did not have to act; she was scared quite enough for Starr's purpose.

When it came to Stella Starr's turn, Andy witnessed a second exhibition of the superstitious folly of these strange circus folk. The equestrienne sharply halted the man who led her horse forward for a dash into the ring. "Back him instantly," she called out. "Right foot first over the dead line. I wouldn't start on a left foot entree for the whole day's proceeds."

This excitement has been too much for you," said Starr decidedly. But Mr. Endicott demurred. He had been interested in the little drama that had been enacted before him, and he wanted to sit up and see the end of it. He was inclined to blame Michael for bringing such a fellow into Starr's presence.

But I must ask you plainly what reason you had for speaking of Ida Starr's mother as they say you did. Why did you say she was a bad woman?" "It's only what she is," returned Harriet sullenly, and with much inward venom. "What do you mean by that? Who has told you anything about her?"

M. Soulé, the Mobile financier, so well known through the West, with his family, had occupied them for about a week; this evening, too, a Mr. Frazier from St. Louis was at the house: there was a collision of trains near Beaver, and he had left the other passengers and come over to Starr's, intending to go on horseback up to Pittsburg in the morning.

"I I " she faltered, and I saw her throat flutter. "You're putting me in a horrid position. We I thought we'd settled this matter, things being as they are." "Not at all," said I. "Nothing was settled." "You're Mr. Starr's friend, and I can't send you away." "You can, easily," I replied. "And since that appears to be your only reason for not doing so, I'll not wait for your orders to go.

Every wish of Starr's was anticipated, and she was waited upon devotedly by Lizzie, who never by so much as a look tried to win recognition. Starr, however, always keen in her remembrances, knew and appreciated this. After the first two days Michael was back and forth in the city.

Our worthy engineer belonged to that class of men whose brain is always on the boil, like a kettle on a hot fire. In some of these brain kettles the ideas bubble over, in others they just simmer quietly. Now on this day, James Starr's ideas were boiling fast. But suddenly an unexpected incident occurred.

If he yearned secretly for a share of Starr's interest, surely no one can blame him; but that he should voluntarily remove himself from Starr's presence in the belief that he had come to see Helen May exclusively, proves that Vic had the makings of a hero.
