' Mr. Halifont knew on the . instant that some one was opening this safe. A man of courage, a man who never hesitated in the face of. danger one, too, who had a warm regard for his worldly possessions, Mr. Halifont strode at once into the room where he knew house-breakers were at. work. and,, running in the dark against a powerful man, tackled him at once. The light of a lantern flashed across the room. There were two more men. Three against one. The sound of blows, struggling, and the report of a pistol, aroused the young wife once more. Amid her terror she had the good sense to light the gas. It shone upon a spectacle of horror. Her husband, weltering in his blood, wrestling with a gigan , tic man whose features were concealed by a mask of black crape ; a man, the upper part of whose person was cloth ed only in a knitted woolen shirt of some dark color, with sleeves that left his great arms bare. On the ; right one, the one which clutched Mr. Hal i font's throat; was a red mark or brand, a scar, a birth-mark. It would have been impossible for Mrs. Halifont, even in a calmer mo ment, to tell what it was; but it in delibly impressed itself upon her mind, as she bravely cast herself into struggle, and fought with all her might to drag the horrible hand from her husband's throat, screaming all the while for aid. A blow, a kick would have silenced her. The burglar must have known that, but there are very bad men who could not use violence toward a wo man to save their own lives. This man could not.
