The little fellow's voice sounded

toKl him to lui 1 tho-wiy. ,
The boy started ou at, a rapid

as I thought that possibly we tuiht

sign her to a fate worse lu.au 'death.
I wondored what the moruiog pa
pers would aay of tbe whole affair,
when our guide ran into an alley-way
at tbe right.and was out of our sight
in an instant
"A regular imp," said Jacobs.
"Deserted or betrayed us." J
suggested.
"Neither, I know-. Ibeir ways.
Wait and see." . ...
We did wait and seo, but only for
a moment-- Tbe urchin re-appeared
and talking fast, and in a low voico,
said t
"Say, misters, they've gone up
