He swung about like a sapling blown about In the wind. From down tin* road tlie growl of the assem- • bled workers continued unabated.

"Oil. wlint do they intend to do to him?" said Barbara. “1 (lou t know throw dynamite sticks nt him ’nless lie sees ’em first.” She emitted a frightened little “Oh!” and Cusack observed with satisfaction tlint Ills efforts had been to some pur pose.

I can’t be a traitor to the laborin’ man. Well. I’ll be goln’. So long.” He gathered himself together and pushed off. and Barbara mid Anson watched him. Looking up the street, they saw that the mob had started, and the noise sounded nearer. Barbara thought of Imrie alone in their power. Slie knew he was always in the office late on pay night, helping the book keeper close the pay rolls. He would pay no attention to the noise of tlieir coming, putting it down loan ordinary pay night rout until it would I k * too late to seel: safety III flight.

There was a short cut to the office through the fields by which n person could ar rive there before the mob that was tak ing the longer road. She appealed to the man standing beside her with per fect contidence that she had only to give the word nnd be obeyed. “Mr. Anson," she commanded, "run down and warn him"—and added am biguously. "for me. You can cut across lots to back of the boarding camp mid get there before them.” "Why—er"— began Anson, suddenly1 aroused from his speechless Interest in the dolngsof tlieapproachlngmob. “Oh, I don't suppose there Is anybody down there at night.” “He ahva.vs Is in the office ou pay nights. I saw him go down after sup per. and he has not returned." “Imrie, you mean? He probably passed by, mid you did not recognize him. Don't you think so?” “No; I’m sure of It.” But I have never been down that way, you know; nnd anyway,” as a happy thought ’struck him. “there are the canal police.

But her lip curled with an expression of the scorn and contempt she could not utter, and she darted Into the house; not, how- ever, before he had seen and translated the look she had given him. Hooting, yelling nnd swearing, the crowd came on, only Intent on the pur pose they had in view, nnd payiug no heed to the citizens who looked on from behind their gates. Anson drew I back toward the house nnd watched them. He heard the door slam, nnd, turning, lie snw Miss Elwell, with a mackintosh over her shoulders, and her fingers nervously pinning a felt hat to her head. She stepped from the veranda and ran across the lawn. “Stop, stop!” lie called, but uot so loud as to be iienril by the men oil the street. "Stop! I'll go. Come back!” lie rau after her.
