Tlie only other nstimption that would fit tho facts was tlmt she had left her house Tritium! them. This led him to tlio further speculation that it womnn of such courage and poise ns she hnd levealed hoi self to possess eould only have done such an illogical thing under stress of a fear so tremendous as to chive even her mind Into u hjsterlcal state She had thrown he'-self into nn easy chair before the fire.

Then tho cause of her fear had appeared suddenlj It lould not have been an ordinary thieving intruder, for she had shown exceptional courage under similar circumstances before. It must have been some ono of whom she stood iu moital dread, hence some ouc that she knew, not a stranger. This person's nppenrnnce had thrown her Into such fear that she bad lied precipitouslj from the house, not wnit ing to reeover her slippers. He had pursued, caught nnd struck her down: then, lemeinbering the slippers, had gone back for them with the intention of placing them on her feet to remove any strikingly unusual feature to the case, but had hppn friihtened away on his te- turn, probablv by the patrolman who found Abita Lanier in lhe road.

After tho spawning tho shad, wniu. are lean anj atarsed, begin to move sea ward. The voung remain In the rlicrs much lenger, not flnilly going to sea until tho fall. They remain at sea for three or four years until they mature and then begin, like the others, to ascend the streams at the spawn ing season, A peculiar characteristic Is that they Insarlablv ascend tho same streams In which they themselves were propagated.
