Twice again he leaned his head out of the window as If to see exactly where they were, but now he did not rise from hla seat, and kept an eye closely on Olive. Once he glanced ddwn under the seat where he had thrown the paper, as If to make sure It was there, and this gave Olive an Idea. plan, almost a forlorn hope, took shape In her thoughts, and she sat thinking It over and over. In sheer des. peratlon. There was Just the faintest chance that It might succeed, nnd the thought nerved her and gave her cour age. She was watching hla every move ment, and when at length the train whistled on approaching the tunnel, she saw him think a moment, glance across the carriage and rlee as If to go to that aide. But he paused and looked out of the window close to Olive. She looked out and saw that the train was running on the middle line of rails, and that there was another set of rails for the ordinary traffic. At the train dashed Into the tunnel he unfastened the door and thrust It open. As It swung open Olive recoiled In voluntarily, and the mnn moved back a step as If to seise her the.more easily for the foul purpose he had named. It was d|*k ns pitch now, and the darkness hiiped her plan. She knew Just where fie was, and rushing at him suddenly a, he was In the act of seising her, she thrust him violently away, and, springing up. uttered a pferriog scream and made as If to throw herself out of the carriage.

Then lay as still as death. , he man swore horribly and first felt along the seate to make eure ehe carriage foot-board. the engine whistled shrilly and began to slow down.. With a fresh set of oaths the man bama are "dry." and following the sue. ceseful prohibition election In Blrmlng ham, Gadsden, Anniston and otner places, a strong sentiment has sprung up for passing a bill to make It effect ive In the entire state. In speaking of conditions and the Birmingham election. Judge Wheatley said: "The tremendous majority'rolled up for prohibition In JelTerson county aur- prised the country. The antis expected to defeat pi diibltton, but they got the aurprlse of their lives. When the great mill centers and manufacturing towns around Birmingham returned majori ties for prohibition, they gave up the battle. . . , - One of the strongest arguments tlon that the company offers to the advanced by the antle was that the | city Is to furnish arc-lights at »2fr pet* annum, a great reduction over the price that the city has been paying to the Macon: Railway and Light Company.

Tearing the cover from the lamp, he gave a last look around the compart ment, opened the door on the further side, stepped down on, to the foot board, paused there a moment to close the door after him, and then dropped on to the rolls juet before the train ran into the daylight. With a feeling of Intense thankful ness Olive scrambled out from under the seat, and fell back on the cushions, almost fainting from the strain of the terrible experience. She had been very near death, she knew, nnd for some minutes she could do nothing but seek to still her beat ing heart and recover her dazed wits. Now that the danger waa over and her life safe, her nerves threatened to fall her altogether. Hhe seemed to see the man's coarse face staring Into here; to feet the touch of his vile, menacing grip and to hear the brutal words In which he had threatened her with that cruel death. She could scarcely persuade herself that she was really safe, and rushed to the window to assure herself that he whs not still waiting to return and renew Ills desperate efforts. Then she looked all round the car riage, and even under the teats In an almost hysterical desire to be sure he was not lurking there. And In doing that she made a discovery. The paper which he had thrown un der the seat was lying In a corner and she took It out and unfolded It. At the first glance she started so violently that the paper almost flut tered out of her grasp. To her utter amazement the writing closely resembled her own: and the signature was hers—"Olive Fermen ter.” The blood ruahed to her heart as she saw this, and when she read what 1 written ehe uttered a cry of the d< eat bewilderment. A great light br In upon her as to the full sinister meaning of this attempt upon her life. CHAPTER X. Mrs. Merrldew aa a Friend. Olive was some minutes before ehe could entirely control the wild thoughts which the reading of the paper started. It conaleted of juit three lines of writing. “I feel I can not bear the disgrace which haa fallen on me, and I choose this means of ending a life which would First Prize $460 Kimball Piano Second Prize $350 Kimball Plano A CONTEST OF SKILL COSTS NOTHING TO TRY.

Kimball Co., the largest manufacturers of pianos in the world, desiring to impress the name, ‘'Kimball,” indelibly upon tbe minds of all who may now or at some future time need a piano, makes this great offer. It is the custom these days with many manufacturers to spend large turns yearly in ex pensive magazine advertising. The Kimball Co. prefer to advertise their pianos in a* more direct way, going straight to the people, through their dealers and offering these prises. The adver tising results are thus obtained for the Kimball piano and the people benefit to the extent of thousands of dollars. The W. W. Kimball Co. was one of the first to establish the one-price system. Kimball pianos are sold the world over at a uniform price. They arc always marked in plain figures at their lowest selling prioe. Purchasers of Kimball pianos alwaya have the aasuranee that they get value received, their- dollar going just as far as any other’s. They are also aaenred of a genuine reduction to the fall amount their certificates may call for. Kimball pianos are sold on the easy payment plan if so desired.

When the filet almost breathless feeling of horror subsided and Olive had regained her self-command she was able to extract some degree of comfort from her discovery. It was clear that the attack upon her had been designed by Richard Mer rldew, and that It was no mere ordlna. ry attempt at robbery. He must In some way have learned of her Inten tion to go to Sheffield—there had been no secret made of the fact. Indeed— nnd he had Instigated this ruffians work. But why should he be so afraid of any results of her Journey? Why was he so nnxlous for her death? There wns only one nnswer. Ho wan con scious that her Journey might result In her discovering something which would reveal the truth and thus destroy the conspiracy by which her father's name had been blackened and she heraelf so wronged and robbed. Thus the feeling of horror at her nar. row escape soon gave way to one of exultation and greater confidence. She had escaped the cunning scheme !slJ for her deatructlon, had gained a start ling confirmation of her own Instinc tive gqess, and had received a warning she would never forgot. She had paid a heavy price for this, hut now that the peril was passed she had no regrets. Hir plight waa nevertheless serious. AII her money wa. gone and everything which was of any value. Worst lose ot all, moreover, wus that ot a half doaen photographs of her father, taken at dif ferent ages, , which she'had brought to. assist her In her task. Her dress was badly torn, her hat damaged beyond repair, and slio herself bruised mid hurt as the result of her assailant’s violence. 8he did what she could to make herself presentable, but she presented a sorry figure as the train ran Into the Sheffield station, and she called to an official and Immediate, ly reported what had occurred. To her amazement her story was not believed, and she was subjected to a rough and ready cross-examination at the hands of a stupid official, whose chief anxiety appeared to be to throw discredit on her word In order to hush the matter up In the Interests of the company. "Why didn’t you have the train stop ped?" he asked. "I tried to. I pulled tho cord of com. munlcution, but no notice was taken." "That's nonsense," was the rough retort. "Ask the guard and the engine driver,” he ndded to another man. But tho train had been allowed to proceed on its journey, and they had, of course, gone en *.vith It.
