"1 found that in my room last night. -You're one of the few. Mallow, who smoke them out here. He was a husky Chinese, but I not husky enough. Makes you turn a bit yellow; eh. Craig, you white-liv ered cheat? You almost got my money belt, but almost is never quite. The letter of credit is being reissued. It might have been robbery; it might have been just deviltry; just for the sport of breaking a man. Anyhow, you didn't succeed. Suppose we take a lit tle jaunt out to where they're build ing the new German Lloyd dock? There'll be no one working at this time of day. Plenty of shade." For a moment the click of the balls on the other tables was the only sound. Craig broke the tableau by reaching for his glass of whisky, which he emptied. He tried to assume a non chalant air. but his hand shook as he replaced the glass on the tabouret. It rolled off to the floor and tinkled into pieces. "Nerves a bit rocky, ch?" Warring ton laughed sardonically. "You're screeching in the wrong Jungle, Parrot, old top," said Mallow, who. as he did not believe in ghosts, was physically nor morally afraid of anything. "Though, you have my word for it that I'd like to see you lose every cent of your oil fluke." "Don't doubt it." "But." Mallow went on. "If you're wanting a little argument that doesn't require-pencils or voices, why. you're on. You don't object to my friend Craig coming along?" "On the contrary, he'll make a good witness of what happens." "The chit, boy!" Mallow paid the reckoning. "Now. then, come on. Three rickshaws!'' he called. The barren plot of ground back of the dock was deserted. Warrington jumped from his rickshaw and divest ed himself of his coat and flung his hat beside it Gleefully as a boy Mal low did likewise. Warrinpton then bade the coolies to move back to the road. "Rounds?" inquired Mallow. "You filthy scoundrel, you know very well there won't be any rules to this game. Don't you think I know you?" Warrington rolled up his sleeves end was pleased to note the dull color of Mallow's face. He want ed to rouso the brute in the man, then he would have him at his mercy. "I swore four years ago that I'd make you pay for that night." "You scum!" roared Mallow, "you'll never be a whole man when they carry you away from here." "Wait and see.'" On the way to the dock Warrington had mapped out his campaign. Fair play from either of these-men was not to be entertained for a moment One was naturally a brute and the other was a coward. They would not hesi tate at any means to defeat him. And he knew what defeat would mean at their hands —disfigurement, probably. "Will you take a shillinrr for your fifty quid?" jeered Craig. lie was go ing to enjoy this, for he had not the least doubt as to the outcome. Mai low was without superior in a rough and tumble fight. Warrington did not reply. He walked cautiously toward Mallow. This maneuver brought Craig within reach. It was not a fair blow, but Warrington delivered it without the least compunction. It struck Craig squarely on the jaw. Lightly as a cat Warrington jumped back. Craig's knees doubled . under him and he toppled forward on his face. "Now, Mallow, you and I alone, with no one to jump on my back when I'm looking elsewhere!" Mallow, appreciating the trick, swore foully, and rushed. Warrington Jabbed with his left and sidestepped. One thing he must do and that was to keep Mallow from getting into close quarters. The copra grower was more than his match in the knowledge of those oriental devices that usually cripple a man for life. He must wear him down scientifically; be must de- Dend anon his rinc generalship. In ! his youtfr Warrington naa oeen a sum ful boxer. He could now back this skill with rugged health and a blow that had a hundred and eighty pounds behind it. From ordinary rage Mallow fell Into a frenzjr; and frenzy never won a ring battle. Time after time he endeav ored to grapple, but always that left stopped him. Warrington played for his face, and to each jab he added n .aunt. "That for the little Slngalese!" "Count that one for Wlieedon's broken knees!" "And wouldn't San admire that? RemetiiJ>er her? The little Jap anese girl whose thumbs you broke?" "Here's one for me!" It was not dig nified, but Warrington stubbornly re fused to look back upon this day either with shame or regret. Jab-jab, cut and slash! went the left. There was no more mercy in the mind back of It than might be found in flie sleek felines who stalked the Jungles north. Doggedly Mallow fought on. hoping for his chance. He tried every trick he knew, but he could only get so "".or. The ring was as wide as the 'world; there were no corners to make a possibility. Some of his desperate blows got through. The bezel of his ring laid open Warrington's forehead. He was brave enough, but he began to realise that this was not the same man he had turned out into the night four years ago. And the pain and igno miny he had forced upon others was now being returned to him. Warring ton would have prolonged the battle had he not seen Craig getting dizzily to his feet. It wan time to end it. He feinted swiftly. Mallow, expecting a body blow, dropped his guard. War rington, as he strutk, felt the bones In his hand crack. Mallow went over upon his back, fairly lifted off his feet. He was tough; an ordinary man would have died. "I believe that squares accounts," said Warrington, speaking to Craig. "If you hear of me in America, in Eu rope, anywhere, keep away from the places where I'm likely to go. Tell He Remained Dumb. him." with an in&ifferent jerk of his head toward the insensible Mallow, 'tell him that 1 give him that fifty pounds v.iih the greatest good pleas ure. Sorry I can't wait." He trotted back to his rickshaw, wiped the blood from his face, put on his hat and coat, and ordered the re spectful coolie to hurry back to town. He never saw Mallow or Craig again. The battle itself became a hazy inci dent. In life affairs of this order gen erajly have abrupt endiugs. CHAPTER XVIII. Two Letters. And all that day Elsa had been ! waiting patiently to hear sounds of Warrington in the next room. Never could she recall such long, weary hoi»rs Time and again she changed a piece of ribbon, a bit of lace, and twice she changed her dress, all for the purpose of making the hours pass more quickly. Whenever Martha ap proached Elsa told her that she wanted nothing, that she was head achy. and wanted to be left alone. Discreetly Martha vanished. To prevent the possibility of miss ing him, Elsa had engaged the room boy to loiter about downstairs and to report to her the moment Warrington arrived. The boy came pattering up at a quarter to six. "He come. He downside. I go, come topside?" "No. That will bs all." The following ten minutes tested her patience to the utmost. Presently she heard the banging of a trunk lid. He was there. What was she going to.say to him? The trembling that struck at her knees was wholly a new sensation. Presently the tremor died away, but it left her weak She stepped ! toward his door and knocked gently on the jamb. She heard something click as It struck the floor. (It was Warring- I ton's cutty, which he had carried for i seven years, now in smithereens.) She saw a hand, raw knuckled and bleeding slightly, catch at the curtain j and swing it back upon its rings. "Miss Chetwood?" he said. "Yes . . . Oh, you've been hurt!" , she exclaimed, noting the gash upon his forehead. A strip of tissue paper (in lieu of court plaster) lay soakinz j upon tnat wound —a trie* learnea m the old days when rasors grew dull overnight. "Hurt? Oh. I ran against something when I wasn't looking," he explained lamely. Then he added eagerly: "I did not know that you wera on this gallery. First time I've put up at a hotel In years." It did uot serve. "You have been fighting! Your hand." Ha looked at the hand dumbly. How keen her eyes were. "Was It . . . Mallow? Did you „ , . whip him?"

Qorgas Why Have Two Coal Yards? First—because we are able to give our customers better and quicker service. Tile one yard is located on Allison Hill, at Fifteenth and Chestnut streets. The second yard is in town, at Forster and Cowden streets. This makes shorter hauls. Second—and this is the main reason we can handle more varieties of coal. The "Hill" yard is on the Heading Railroad and the "in town" yard is on the Pennsylvania Railroad. Furnace conditions are not all the same. "Reading Coal" will give the very best results in some houses while in others "Penn sylvania Coal" is what is required.
