.Sudden, numbing fear seized Iloatrlce.
Now for the first time she realized the
Imminent peril: now she regretted her In
sistence on seeing the Horde at clone range,
She turned, pule ami ehaken; and her
trembling hand sought the engineer's.
He still, for a moment, keep bis eye to
the crack, fascinated by the very horror
of the sight Then all ut once another
figure shambled Into view.
"A fenian one!" be realized, shudder.
Ing, Too monstrously hideous, this sight,
to be endured With a gasp, the man
turned back.
About Beatrice he drew hie arm. To
gcth.r, almost as soundlessly as wraiths,
they stole away, out through the office,
out to the hallway, Into the dim light
of the areade once more.
Here, for u. few memento, they knew that
they were safe- Itetreat through the
Marble Court awl up the stalra was ralriy
clear. There was but one entrance open
Into the arcade, the one through Pine Tree
(late; and this was blocked to narrowly
by the giant bole that Htern knew there
eould be no general mob-rush through It
no attack which he could not for a while
held back, so long its but ammunition and
the girl's should last.
Thus they breathed morej freely now
Most of the tumult outside hod been cut
off from their bearing by the retirement
into the arcade They pued to plan their
aoUrse,

"Attack? Now?"
"I don't think much of going upstnlrs
without that pall of water. Wo hnvo a
frightful tlmo with thirst, to say nothing
ot not boing ablo to make tho Pulverlto.
Water wo must hnvo! If It weren't for your

Jeutrleo seized Ills hand und pulled him
towntd tho doorway.
"Como on !" cried she, "If you nnd I
aren't u match for them, wo don't deserve
to live, that's nil You know how I can
shoot now! Cotno along!"
Her eyes gleamed with tho light ot battle,
battle for liberty, for life; her cheeks
glowed w lib tho tides of genurous blood thnt
coursed hcuenth tho skin. Never hnd Htern
heboid iter half so beautiful, so regal In that
clinging, barbaric llcng.il robo of blnck nnd
yellow, (.-nitght nt tho throat with tho clnsp
of raw gold,
A sudden Impulse seized him, dominant,
resistless For n brief moment ho dctnlned
her; ho held her back; about her supple
body his arm tightened.
Hho rnlsed her fnco In wonder. Ho bent
n Utile nnd on her brow ho kissed her
rapturously.

Stuns few minutes Intor, together they
appro.iclied Pino Tree fjato, lending
dlroflly out Into tho Horde.
The girl, rohler than ovor, held her Krag
loosely In the hollow of hor hare, warm
right arm. onn of Ktcrn'n revolvers lay
In its holster. The other balanced Itself in
Ills right hand. Ills (eft held tho precious
water pall, so vltnl now to all their plana
and hopes.
