The swift, clumsy, yet inevitable rush the third, as he might have known if he had of Ridler, Eke a razaway engine coming away. earod the least bit ing out of atauns). I saw no striking, still less anything of the nature of regalar fighting.
I made out Rifler, the most active thing, apparently, in the miverse. But even he did not appear to be engaged in deadly” coribat. Ho was kicking, certainly oven violently But mostly he seemed to be tearing the clothes of a number of people into shreds, Several strewed the ground, but not as if hurt rather as though they felt it was unsafe to get up. Then quite suddenly the felt cleared, and I had a full view of Hidler. He stood massively, his shoulders mors hunched than over, and for a space of time which must have seemed an eternity to the person concerned, he hold an iminense iron-shad, boot over the faco of a prostrata man, I never say in all my life the picture of a more complete brats.
It was in the interval between term and term at a Scotch University that long spell of nearly half year, which suables so many to see something of life and lay by a few pounds for the coming winter, that I went to Enderby's yard at East Dene as time-keeper, having been recommended to them by a firm bad sorved tho year before on the other side of the river.
Ridler was my mate's name, and at first I thought him a sulky dog. He was kept there as a sort of chucker out of all work For En derby's wre a rough yard, employing only non-Union menпperior scontrols, thro- week job mou, and loafers, who it they would not work, had to be run out of the yard by the aid of a too-cup rimmed with steel. i
Two of the latter bolonged to Rider, and when there was a row at the pay grating, or in the office Biller was sent for it haste to say nothing of the constant disputes as to the longth of time a man had wrought, which it was the strict daty of the timekeeper to regillato,
Being rew to this sort of work, I first tried politeness. I had been used to different meth ods and another type of men on the other side of the river. So Enderby a came as a revelation to me Across tho Thor estuary they were polite to the time keeper. At Endorby's they fold him he was a liar. I could not belfore my exis. At the time Ridier was busy at the taf lies. He had a system of book-keeping which was really board kooping." And the board, which had once been black, was now of gray so hoary that Bidler made his hieroglyphics upon it in chalk or charcoal indifferently. But I must say that his eyetem was as cornzet in its resulta as mine, based on Colenso,
But when the man, a big, timber-sided wharf rat, told me for the second time that I was liar, I felt annoyed, and not being allowed to leave the little bothy fan enlarged sentry box) Isten for a moment, I was contenting myself with making a certain mark of discredit against his name for the benefit of the outdoor foreman, when I heard the noise of Ridler's board being overturned.
Ridler stopped to the door. He made one
grab at the big slab-sided man, caught him by the collar, stool toe-capped him down the four teen yards of pavement which led to the main gate of Enderby's, flung the man ou his face in the mud, and returned, dusting his hands like a particular man who has handled a sack of lime or bone dust.
Ridler did not enco
neo look about him. He tramped back, lifted up his board galu, set it on its frame, adjusted the pins, and so went on with his system of peccunte. I had an idea of remonefrating with Ridler on his unneces say brutality, but on sucend thoughts decided not to. It seemed somehorr out of place, from one who had only been a few hours in a sitea tion, to sriticise the misthods of a comrade who has given satisfaction to tndlerby's for twenty Jeara-nct to mention soven as a porter at the guy'nor's cffice, as Ridler added when asked his atato of service.
Onco or tries I had difficulties myself, and as I rather priced myself on my fists I asked nothing better than to settle those difficulties out of court, as it were. But of this Ridler would have nothing,
Yon ain't fit for the like o' them," he said, they are the Lower Cotton Street Gang, I fell you, and their business is to make a set of every new mar that comes into the time keeper's box. Lord, your's nowt but a spindling lad of a clerk, what do you know about fighting Enderby's mor P**
Now I thought that I knew a good doul. But there was that in Ridler's-face-which told me that tho fights I had seen at school and college were wall enough for boys, but that here I had better keep pit of mischief, as Ridler himself suggested.
Coming my way he remarked that night in a shamefaced, casual sort of way. ***
That fellow, Bob Hicks, and his mates know better than to tackle me, but 'tis more than likely that they might be waiting round the corner for you,”
· I'm not afraid !" I said boldly,
I
Then the more fool you," he burst out. should be in your place shivering feared--and I'm the heavy-weight champion for the Nor thern Counties. Eb, but the has mickle to learn for nw thy book knowledge!"
Why, what could happen to me?" I asked. I've had a hiding before, I suppose! I can take my gruel with the next man
Ridler came ofor, and 'with his shoulders all humped together as if he were cold, he glower od down at me.
"Holy truth," he said slowly, “but you are a fool. I suppose it's being at college that does ih. Why, man, you don't know what doing up means!"
"It's a licking." I said, a good deal nettled, and I tell you, Ridler, I've had more than One!"
· Ridier grunted and humped one shoulder nearly to his ear.
*What would you say to three months in an hospital, and not yourself when they let you out no, nor nover would be. That's what thon chaps round the corner by Buckley's pub would call a doing! You don't want any. No figures and book-learnin," and a smile like as if somebody had presented you with two pound of Cambridge saneages you wasn't expectin' That's your best chance. And leave the rest to Ridler I give you the straight tip But don't get it in your head that fightin' will do you a bit of good!"
By this time we were out on the road Dene Wester main road, along which the cat- tages were scattered with a liberal but careless hand. They were all Enderby's property, and the firm kept a nucleus of steady; men about them by means of allowing the rent to run on a bit-that is, with men they were sure of.
And, in fact, it was not for quite a while that I could bring myself to remember that in all probability Hider the Bruto had saved my life. Anil I really don't believe that I thanked him for it at all. Not that Rider expected thanks. On the contrary, ho came back growling discontentedly, like a tog who has had his half gnawed bone taken from him. He paid not the least attention to me. He did not even let his eyes rest on the scenes of his prowess, from which the halt, tho maimed, and the half-naked were crawling painstakingly away. T
Come on, Joung an" he growled, "I think them that wants their faces kep' on the froutside of their heads will gie you and me the go-by for some time to come?"
Then acording to programme we went to Ridler's house. It was not the sort of place you would have expected Ridler's to be being outwardly clean, tiny, and whitewashed in more coats than Bidler had torn from the backs of the Cotton Strest Gang:
As he got nearer the house a change camo over Ridler, he conghed several times belind his hand, and out of a deep-side pocket he pulled a red bandiauna handkerchief. With his be mopped his brow repeatedly, though he was far from being warm. As a matter of fact he wanted to say something to me and felt nervous, which was far from being a habit with Eidler.
At last he got it out.
Would you mind wiping your feat well on the mat?" said the conqueror of Gangs, Aud I am sure that he blushed as he said it, though I was fat too much of Ridler's faction even to glance up at him,
I said certainly I would. I would be pleased indeed. *-.
Jess is that particular!" he explainedt, súll keeping his face averted. Ridler opened the door, and he and I entered, my foot having been earefully wiped. I oven did it twice, for I say Rider's glance tura my way, and that not mildly but like a searchlight.
"She's that parlio'tar-ye would nover guces to see me in the offles!
A fecble voice arrived from somewhere an secu-npstairs it was I could make so much out in the dusk of the lobby
"What are you standing and holding the outer door open for? Can you not come in and be done with it, Riller?"..
The voice was weak, but dominating and yet somehow soft in tono surprisingly so in fact for the helpmeet of this terror of Enderby's, the Chicker Out of Chuckers Out. Ridler coughed again, nervously.
So I was called up, and naturally went as quietly and as quickly as my feet could carry mo. Ridler was on the landing making frantio elgus of each rehemence and pregnancy that I could make neither hand or tail of his teaving.

I was quite willing to do without Ridler's apologies, thinking on the fate of the Lower Cotton Street Gang, but a glance from the imploring Ridler warned me not to mix my self with what I did not understand.
