DR. PETER DORN, astron- omy professor; is a rival of Eric's for her favor. MYRA ALDRICH, in: love with Eric, and jealous of Judith, has ti her attentions to vamping Dr Dorn. Eric is suspected of dealing with "KITTY" SHEA, town bootlegger, in selling poison liquor from whic! two students have died. Judith publicly defends him. Shea is trying to blackmail the dean's wife, having discovered a. love affair of hers, of whith Ju- dith also knows. Judith befriends M#s. Brown, bdlieving the dean a pends the Christ holidays in Myra's sorority house. The servants go off on Christmas Eve and leave her alone in the house. Shé finds the back door unlocked, and shuts herself in her bedroom. She hears shuffling footsteps on the porch under her windows. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XXVIII The footsteps stopped for several moments. Then came the violent ring- ing of the doorbell. Judith's body re- laxed somewhat. She pushed the win- dow halfway up. "You'li nave to come the basement," she called. come dow to let you in." But no soft negro voice replied. There was another moment of heavy silence. Then the shuffling steps be- gan again, and a heavy form lurched into view. Judith fell back. But she was not quick enough. A medallion of light from an electric torch had danced across . her face. Loud laughter greeted her movement. It brought her back to the window, in a desper- 4te attempt to see the face of the man below. Obligingly, he stepped out from the shadow of the pillar, so that the street set for her in through "I can't a glint on his little eyes. He was laughing still. "Come in through the basement! Ha ha! Like vou to know 'Kitty' Shea never uses basement doors,--except--and this ain't that kind of a rondyvoo. Ha ha ha!" light shone on his dark jowl, and cast' MPUS REBELS oh By Virginia Swain Judith stirred, and called out loudly. "If you don't go away at once, I'll call the servants." Shea laughed again. "Oh, now, call the servants! You call 'em, 'cause they ain't any. dear yon't a hd Judith could rot speak. She watched the man below, as she roared with laughter, slapping his thighs and hold- ing his fat sides. . Then he moved across the porch out of her sight again. "She heard his fists on the wooden door. Between spasms of knocking, there was silence. Then Shea began to curse. Judith put her hands over her cars to shut out the stream of filth. But the knocking was still audible: When it stopped, she took her hands away from her ears. Shea was talk- ing to the door knob. 'There, there, 1i'l knob. Come on now." Then a furious rattling was followed by more blows on the-door. Judith was trembling. She thrust her head out the window to screani for help. But the sound of shivered glass froze the scream in her throat. Shea's mocking laughter grew louder. "Come in through the basement. Ha ha ha! I'll show you, my lady." Again glass crashed on the floor of the porch. Judith threw herself across the bed and reached for the shot gun. She thrust its barrel out the window and leaned far out herself. "Shea," she screamed, "I'll shoot!" He drew his head back and looked up at her. "'Taint loaded." he taunted. "Women's guns never are." Judith leveled the gun at the top of the oak tree and pulled the trigger. There was a loud explosion. For a full moment, Shea neither spoke nor moved As she watched, he began to drag his body toward the steps. At the edge of the top step, he fell forward, sprawling on his face. Then, with a mighty effort, he pulled himself up again and went Iir- ching quickly down the walk. Judith still held ihe gm on the window ledge. He went down the road out of sight. And in a momen, she heard the chugging of a motor. It died awav towara town. Judith pulled the weapon in and car- ried it agross the room. She set it up against the wall with a gesture of dis- taste. Then she moved the chair from the door and went into the hall. Her finger was 3ja:t tracing the number of. the. police station in the telephone book, when she heard sing- ing on the street outside. The ser- vants were coming up the walk, es- corted by a mellow quartet deep in the " -- fallen. wed throes of "Carry me back to old Vir- ginny." Judith teamed ott the window and called to them. "Come in at once. There's been an attempted burglary." Soft "oh's" and ah's" and "Oh Lawds" answered her. A hush fell upon the quartet, and it straggled off across the lawn. Judith could hear the houseman and the cook talking in frightened whisp- ers. She ran down into the lower hall to meet them. The man was leaning against the door jamb and the cook had flopped into a chair. They were looking at her with bulging eyes. "Lawdy, miss," said the cook at last, "you-all's funnin'. Shuah you is." i Judith's face was like marble. She pointed to the broken pane by the door. The two negroes turned to look at it, and she could see them start and gape at each other. 2 "How dared you leave the house empty without lights and with the back door wide open?" she shot at the man. He fumbled. "The back door? Oh, no, miss." But thie cook began to cry, throwing her skirt over het head. "Oh, Lawdy, oh, Lawdy me." The nian 'struck her on the shoulder. "Shet tip, Mandy." The blow brought her to, and she uncovered her face. Her black cheeks were glistening with tears and her eyes rolled wildly. "Dat back doah is a limb o' Satan hisself. Ah guess it blow open when ah goes back foh de skillet." "The skillet?" repeated Judith. The cook nodded but could make no articulate sounds, The houseman step- ped forward. "We had a possum roast downtown and a rabbit stew, miss," he said sullenly. "Those animules I brung in today." Judith looked at him. "So that's what you were planning to have here and 1 walked in upon you," she said. "I wondered why you were holding a reception in the kitchen tonight." "Well," said the man defiantly, "it's de day befoh Christmus." Judith was too tired to feel sym- pathy. "You don't deserve your jobs," she said. "The Gamma Deltas might have lost all of their silver and their Persian rugs, to say nothing of their clothing, if I hadn't happened to be here. Or I might have been killed." The man tossed his head insolently. Judith turned on him. "You will bring a chair and mount guard the rest of the night. We can't leave that broken window unwatched." She started for the stairs. "I'll bring you your gun." The man stared. "Gun?" "Yes," said Judith. "I had to use it to frighten the thief away. And might have had to shoot somebody. Thank God I didn't." The man grunted. know? Wimmen straight."s Judith went up the stairs with a very white face. In her room she went straight to the window and looked out, first at the oak tree and then at the spot where Shea had stood. She turned back to the room, picked up the gun and carried it downstairs. The mulatto sat slouched in a chair opposite the door, his head sunk on his chest and his eyes shut. The cook had fallen asleep in her chair. Judith shook her shoulder. "Here," she said, "you'd better go to bed unless vou want to relieve your brother on the watch." The woman opened ner eves with a start and stared up. at judith. "Ah can't go down in dat black cellah. Mah feet won't let me. Might find t'other burglar down theat." "Very well" said Judith shortly. "Stay here then, but stay awake, one of vou. You can take turns and if I come down and catch vou both asleep I'll sce that you're both discharged." She went upstairs and into her room. Slipping off her outer garments, she got into bed again. Before she turned the light off she picked up the small alarm clock on the table set it by her watch and wound it. Then she set the alarm at five o'clock and snapped out the light. When the clock rang she opened her eves and blinked at it. Outside the window it was as dark as when she had gone to sleep. She forced herself out of bed and reeled against the dresser with the vertigo of extreme fatigue. When it passed away she went through the dark hall into the bathroom and washed her face in icy water. She went back fo her room and dressed. The light was beginning to break in the sky. She sat down on the bed to wait for it and then went down the stairs on tiptoe to the sound of a snoring duet. The houseman in his chair and the cook in hers were dead to the world. Picking her way across the hall be- tween them, Judith 'softly unlocked the front door and went out. The dawn had come, but wanly, with a face like that of a fever patient. In the ghastly fight Judith went down the steps from the portico. On the walk she knelt and began to ex- amine the cément where 'Shea had fallen. (To Be Continued) Something new apparently begins to prey upon the mind of Mrs. Timothy Brown. In the next chapter Dorn and Eric reappear, the latter with a mys- terious injury.

He never returned and his fate and that of his ship was never learn- ed. Yesterday, from the Island of Bockum in the Baltic Sea, came a message written by blue pencil on a faded sheet of paper, bearing John Lee's last message to his mother, which, if authentic, had floated about the world nearly 40 years tightly sealed in a bottle. The bottle was picked up on Sept. 6 by a young German cable engin- eer and the message forwarded to the Premier of Nova Scotia. It read: "To whom it may concern: Tell mother I died fighting. John Lee, Master Mariner, Halifax." It was dated "May 17, '87." The pa- per had evidently been white, but was a faded grey and the writing was very faint but quite legible. The message came too late to serve the purpose for which John Lee intended it. His mother died 35 years ago. An old resident of the waterfront said that he well re- membered John Lee, but could not remetaber the name of his ship. He |said Lee's fate had always been a mystery. Found Message B. Janssen, head test officer of the trans-Atlantic cable station at Emden, Prussia, who was on a duty trip to Bockum, noticed the bottle bobbing about in the waves as he walked along the shore. He sal- vaged it and extracted the message which. he sent to the head of the Nova Scotia Government, deseribing the circumstances of its recovery. No doubt was expressed in offic- ial circles that the message was au- thentie, but it cast little light upon the manner in which John Lee met his end. It will be retained in the provincial archives. 100,000 BULBS Mrs. G. A. Bonisteel, owner of "Bon Glad Gardens," Belleville, has taken in her gladioli bulbs for the winter, which number around one hundred thousand. Mrs, Bonisteel stated that this is the largest number that she has had in hr gardens yet and that the varieties are all of a fine type bulb and many are of a rare species.
