AH this time Lieutenant Mallor
had been thinking aa bard aa an o
fleer in an ambuscade. His harrowin
experiences and Incessant defeats <
the past day* had unnerved him an
shattered hla self-confidence. He wa
not afraid, but Intensely disgusted. H
sat absent-mindedly patting Marjorl
on the back and repeating:
"Don't worry, honey; they're nc
going to hurt anybody. They don
want anything but our money. Don
wonxll^on't let 'em hurt you."
But he could not shake off a sem
of nauses. He felt himself a repn

experience that his own prayers were

had an Impulse to try some weapon
| he had never used.
"Young man," he pleaded across the
back of a seat, "will you kindly lend
j me a gun?"
MaUory answered sullenly: "Mine Is
in my trunk on the ti'ain ahead, damn
It If I had it I'd have a lot of fun."

with a tiny silver-plated revolver.
"I'll lend you this. Sammy gave It
to me to protect myself In Nevada!"
Mallory smiled at tho .22-callbor
toy, broke It open, and displayed an
empty cylinder.
"Where are the pills that go with
it?" ho said.
"Oh, Sammy wouldn't lot me have
any bullots. He was afraid I'd hurt
myself."
Mallory returned It, with a bow. "It
would make an excellent nut-cracker."
"Aren't you going to use it?" Mrs.
Whltcomb gasped.
"It's empty," Mallory explained.
"But tho robbers don't know that!
i Couldn't you Just overawe them with
itr
"Not with that," eaid Mallory, "unlesB
they died laughing."
Mrs. Wellington pushed forward:
! 'Then what the devil are you going to
do when they come?"
i Mallory answered meekly: "If they
1 request it, I shall hold up my hands."
"And you won't resist?" Kathleen
1 gasped.
"Not a resist."
( "And he calls himself a soldier!"
. she sneered.
Mallory writhed, but all ho said
. was: "A soldier doesn't have to be a
jackass. I know Just enough about
guns not to monkey with the wrong
end of 'em."
"Coward!" she flung at him. He
I turned white, but Marjorle red, and
made a leap at her, crying: "He's the
' bravest man In the world. You say a
word, and I'll scratch your eyes out."
| This reheartened Mallory a little,
and he laughed nervously, as he restrained
her. Kathleen retreated out
J of danger, with a parting shot: "Our
engagement Is off."
I "Thanks," Mallory said, and put out
\ his hand: "Will you return the bracelet?"
"I never return such things," said
I Kathleen.
The scene was so painful and such
8 an anachronism that Dr. Temple tried
to renew a more pressing subject:
s "It's your opinion tiien thai we'd best
surrender?"
"Of course?since we can't run."
Wedgewood broke In Impatiently:
r "Well, I consider it a dastardly out- |
[ rage. I'll not submit to it I'm a !
subject of His Majesty tbe?"
a "You're a subject of His Majesty
the Man Behind tho Gun," said Maiit
Jorrt
"I shall protest, none the less,"
Wedg^wood insisted,
n Mallory grinned a little. "Have you
- any last message to send home to ;
your mother?"
Wedgewood was a trifle chilled at
this. "D-don't talk of such thingB," he
? said.
And by this time the traln-robber6
p had hastily worked their way through !
the other passengers, and reached tbe
v frantic inhabitants of the sleeper,
~ "Snowdrop."
"Hands up! Higher!! Hands up!"
With a true sense of the dramatic.1
t the robbers sent ahead of them tbe I
0 most hair-raising yells. They arrived
a simultaneously at each end of the
aisle, and with a few short sharp com'
mands, straightened the disorderly
g rabble into a beautiful line, with all
lt palms aloft and all eyes wide and
\ wild.
e One robber drove ahead of him the
, conductor and the otber drove in Mr.
|f Manning, whom he had found trying
a to crawl between the shelves of the
t linen-closet.
h The marauders were apparently
y cattlemen, from their general get-up.
Their hats were pulled low, and Just
s beneath their eyes they had drawn
?tng~~biacK silk hanaaercniera, tied B* I
" hind the ears and hanging to the I
* breast.
Over their shoulders they had slung I
the feed-bags of their horses, to serve I
as receptacles for their swag. Their I
shirts were chalky with alkali dust. I
Their legs were encased In heavy I
chaparojos. and they carried each a I
pair of well-used Colt's revolvers that
j looked as big as artillery.
_ When' the passengers had shoved
* and Jostled lntq line, one of the men
g jabbed the conductor in the back with
the masale of his gun, and snarled:
"Now speak jour little piece, like 1
learned It to you."
The conductor, like an awkward
. schoolboy, grinned sheepishly, sud
spoke, his hands In the air the while:
. "Ladles and gents, these here parties
In the black tidies says they want
I everybody to hoM his or her hands

not to resist, because they hate the
