Wltb a startled cry be drew a step back, and Jan's violin dropped to the snow. For no longer than breath there waa alienee. Tb man wormed blm' self back Into the abadowt tneb by Inch, followed by the while face of the boy. ' Then there came shrilly from J tin's lips the mad shrieking of name. and bis knife Bushed at be leaped at the other's breast The stranger was quicker than he. With a sudden movement be cleared himself of the blow, and at Jan's arm went past him, the point of tb knife ripping bis coat sleeve, he shot out powerful flat and sent the boy reeling to the ground. Stunned and bleeding. Jan dragged himself to his knees. Ue saw the doga turning, beard a low voice urging them to the trail and taw tb sledge disap pear into the forest B staggered from his knees to bis feet and stood twavlns In his weakness. Then be followed. Be forgot that he was leaving bis knife In tb snow, forgot tbat back there about the fir there were other dogs and other men. He followed, sickened by the blow, but gaining strength as he pursued. Ahead of blm be could hear the sound of tb tobog gan and the cautloua lashing of whip over the backs of tb tired huskies. The sounds Oiled blm with Bene strength. He wiped away tb warm trickle of blood that ran over bis cbeek and began to run, tilowly at first. swinging tn the easy wolf lope of tb forest runner, with bis elbows close to his sides. At that pace he could have followed for hours, losing when the pack took a sunrt galnlug wben they lagged, an In stst'ent Nemesis just behind wben the weighted dogs lay down In their traces. .When he beard the cracking of the whip growing . fainter be dropped hi arms straight. to bis sides apd ran more swiftly, bla brain reWTsw wKb tb madness of bis desire to reach the sledge, to drag from It tb man who bad struck blm. to chok life from tne foe that haunted tbat mental picture of bla. grinning at him and gloating al ways from th shadow world, Just be- yond th pale, aweet lovellneaa of the womao who lived In It Be did noteei tb soft "no parked anow onder tb beat of bla feet Be received the lash of low banging bush- te without eiperlenclng the sensation of their sting.

After a little while be dragged himself weak ly to bis knees, still panting from tb mad effort be bad made to overtake the aledge- From a great distance b beard faintly the nol.se of shouting, tb whinnering echo of half a hundred voices, and be knew that the sound cam from tb reveler at the post It wat proof to blm tbat there bad been no Interruption to the carnival and tbat the scene at the edge of tb forest had been witnessed by none. U turned again on the trail. Where the forest broke Into an open. ItKhted by the stars, he found blond In the footprints of tb leading dog. Halfway serosa the open be saw where the lender bad swung out from the trail and the others of the pack bad crowded about him. to be urged on by the lashings of the man's whip. Other signs of the pack's growing ex haustion followed close. Tb man now traveled beside the aledge where the trail was rougb and rode where It was smooth and bard. The deep Imprints of bis heeled hoots In tb soft snow showed tbat be ran for only a abort distance at a time hundred yards or less-and that aft er each munlng spell be brought the pack to a walk.

Other miles were ahead of him. an endless wllder nesa of miles, and through tbem the pack persisted, keeping always beyond sound and vision. The stars began fading out of th skies.

His legs from thlgb to knee began to ache wltb tbe gnawing torment that centers n the marrow bone, and wltb this beginning or the "runner's cramp" be waa tilled wltb a new and poignant terror. Would the dogs bent him out? Slough ing In his trail, bleeding at every font would they still drag their burden h yond the reach of his vengeance? The fear fastened Itself upon blm, urging blm to greater effort and be called upon tbe last of bis strength In a spurt that carried him to where the thick spruce gave place to thin bush and tbe bush to the barren and rocky aide of a huge ridge, up which the trail climbed strong and well defined. For a few pace he followed it then slipped and rolled back as the fatal paralysis dead ened all power of movement In his limbs. Be lay where he fell, moaning out hla grief with wide staring eyes turned atralght up Into tb cold. gray of the starless sky. For a long time he was motionless.
