Nor could the liuplex defend Itwlf from the ma neuver which mutt ultimately force It to fall behind at one of the turna or accept dettructlon by colllalon. The inai hluea were ao cloae that a awerve on the part of either, the blow out of a tire or a catch In the ruta cut In the track at certain point a, meant un- gentlo death. Merclltly, gradually, Stanton preatcd hit perilous advan tage. And at the crucial moment be heard a low, exul'ant laugh. "Cut him cloter!" urged hla mech anician'! eager, excited accenta at hit ear. "Well get him on thla turn he'i weakeiiln' Cut him dote!" The comrade trluit ph came to Stan ton ai an uiiaccuttotn. d cordial. They wet panning the grandstand. Just ahead lay the wortt curve.

If the Implex had held firm, the Mer cury nuint In r-elf pretervatlon have yielded room, liut the driver knew Stanton, gueated him capable of wrecking both by o'jstlnate iertlt ence In attack, and dared not meet the Utile. There came the gun like reiiorta of a al.ut off motor, the Du plex thickened Iti furioua pace, and Stanton hurtled patt lilm on tne turn lit.

At Htanton turned to hla machine, after tearing the card to unreadable fragment., h saw Kloyd watching him with curtoua luu ntneis. A raw, wet mist had commenced to roll In from the near by ocean. Th promla of dawn waa recalled, a dull obscurity tloted over th motordrome, leaving even th Beared lighted path dim. The cart rushed on steadily. Th night had been singularly free from accldeuta. Only on machine had been actually wrecked, although thre had been withdrawn from the contest. Th oMclals In th Judges' atand were congratulating on an other, at th moment when tb second aitattcr occurred. Th mtat had grown thicker. In the lights a dazzling tllver curtain before men a eyes, and tn track bad been worn to a-ep groovea at th turna. The Mercury waa sweeping past the grandstand, when on ot the two alower cars, being overtaken, slipped its driver's control, caught In a foot deep rut, and swerved crashing Into the muchlne next It. Twice over It rolled, splintering alckeulngly, but flinging both of Its men clear of the wreck. The car struck, plunged on around the curve Into the mist, ap parently unnuri. Out acrota tha damp dusk pierced the shriek of th klaxon, mingled with the cry or the people and in tinxie ot the hospital telephone. Stanton, swinging wide to avoid tha pitiful wreckage, kept on bla course. "Stop!" Kloyd shouted Imperatively betide him. "Stop, Stanton, atop: Stanton tped on, disregarding what he auppoaed waa a novice's nervout sympathy. He could not aid the Dunned men lying on the track, and oni, vlnncA hnd told htm that thev could be saleiy passed; as inaeea mey had been. "Stop!" the command rang again; and aa Stanton merely ahook bis In. ml ulih InmatU-nt annoyance, the mechanician swiftly stooped forward.

I've got nothing to say. But the mist lifted and 1 taw what lay ahead." What lay ahead? The klaxon was shrieking madly, from all around the track came the Bound of halting cara The rising wind pushed along th fog walls again, and they opened to reveal the second machine of the late acci dent, not iwenty flve feet ahead, a tilted, motionless heap. After the i.iiiuinn It had staggered this far, to go down with a broken rear axle and two lost rear wheels. Itt men were still In their seutt unhurt Ti,nr. waa an instant of alienee. The avoided disaster w as no excuse for the mechanician' Interference, nor did Kloyd offer It bb such, well aware that 1.1 driver was perfectly Justified in am course he chose to take.

When be retook hla seat, the mechanician made hla equal ly laconic apology and acknowledg ment of error. "I never will." Floyd gave his woro.
