After the meeting,* during which I neither man apparently recognises the j other, Hargreave hurries to bis mag nificent Riverdale home and lays j plans tor making his escape from the country. He writes a lfctter to the giris* school in New Jersey where 18 years before he had mysteriously left on the doorstep his baby daughter, Florence Gray. He also naya a visit to the hangar of a daredevil aviator. : Draine and members of his band surround Hargreave's home at night, but as the*' enter the house the watch ers outsiiic see a balloon leave the roof. The salo ls round empty-the million which Hargreave.' waa. known to have drawn that day was gone. Then some one announced the balloon had been punctured and dropped Into, the sea. Florence arrives from the girls* school, Princess Olga, Bralne's com panion, visita her and claims to be ii relative. ' Two bogus detectives call, but their plot ia foiled by Norton, a newspaper man. By bribing the captain of thc Orient Norton lats a trap for Bratne and but gang. Princesa Olga also visits the Orient's captain and she easily falla into tbe reporter's snare. The plan proves abortive through Bralne's good luck abd only hirelings fall into the bands ot the police. After failing in their first attempt! the Black Hundred trap Florence.

(Copirlght: 1914: By Harold Mac Orsth,) CHAPTKR VIL When all three finally mst Ht the Hargreave home Pjorgeoe suddenly took Jones by ed him lightly on the cheek. Jones started back, palo and dltturbed. Norton laughed. He did not feel the slightest twinge of jealousy, bot ho was eaten up With envy, aa the old wives say. 'Yon are wondering ii I suspect tbe Priueery Perlgoff?" aald Jones. "I ?<m." Thia man Jones waa. de veloping into a very remarkable char acter. The reporter found himself side glanc* ng at the thin, beea face of tuts resourceful butler. The lobe ot the man's |efL ear came within r?nge. Norton reached for a cigarette, but his hands tOook ea be lit it. There waa a- pecttllar little sear lu the center ox the lobe. "Well." aald Jobea. "1 Can (tad BO evidence that she bas been concernes la ?ny ot these affairs." 'Tott ira euspcious V LION DO By Harold "Ot everybody," looking boldly Into the reporter'^ eye?. "Ot me?" smiling. * 'Even of myself sometimes." Conversation dropped entirely after thf*? declaration. "Vou'r? a taciturn sort of c:iap" "Am ir V vfcaxJb, i ? "Vou are. Out an agreement is an agreement, und while I'd like to print thia story, I'll not. We newspaper mew f.vddom break our word." Jones held out his hand. "Sometimes I wish I'd started life right." said the reporter gloomily. "A newspaper man Is generally Improvi dent. He never looks ahead tor to morrow. What with my special ar ticles to the maga7'acB', I earn between four and Ave thousand the year; and I've uever been able to save a cent." "Perhaps you've never really tried," repiled Jones .with a glance at his companion. It was a good face, strong in outline; a little careworn, pernaps, but free from ?ny Indications of duri*, potion. "If I had begun lite as you did, I'd haye made real and solid use of the grea* men I met I'd have made financiers help me to Invest my earnings, or ravings, little ?e they might be. And today I'd be living on the Income." "You never can tell.

Come to thlnl it over, you really saved the day. Yoi gave me the opportunity of steerln) straight tor the police station. Well good-by." "Queer duckt" mused the^reportd as, after telephoning, bo headed Io his Office. Queer duck, Indeed! Wha a game lt was going to be! And th i man Jones wns playing lt- like a mal ter. It did not matter that some on else laid dowd the rules; lt was th Way ii? Which they were interpr?t?t Bralne heard of the failure. Th Black Hundred was finding Its stnc far below par value. Pour valuabl men lockod up in the Tombs, await lng trial, to suy nothing af Uta save gunmen gathered in at tho old wart house. Bralne began to suspect tha his failures were - lesa due to't han-' than to calculation, that a'. last h had encountered n min.. which ant! c l pated hts every move. He woul have recognized this fact earlier hn it not been that revenge had tempt rarity blinded him. The spirit < revenge never makes for montai t 'ur ty.

He wis growing weary or thia eternal vigilance; sud it was only his fear of the man known < as the boss that kept him at his p-i#t,,j He wanted a night to carouse in, to1 be with the boyH. The mon for whom they were lay ing i:i watt was seen presently to creep caul lim: ly round the side of the house. He hugged a corner and paused They could see the dim outline of his body. Thu light in the street back or the grounds almost made a sllhousette of him. By and by, aa If assured that the coast was clear, he ttole down to thc street. "Halt!" Instantly the prowler took to his heels. The two shots rang out. The man was seen to tvop, stagger, ana then go on desperately. "He's blt!" f By tho time the men reached tue corner they heard the rumble of a motor. One dashed back to the car they had left standing at the curb. He made quick work of the joh. but i he waa not quick enough. Still, tney gavo chase. They saw thc car turn toward the city. But, unfortunately for the iaccees of the chase, several automobiles passed, going imo town and leaving it. Checkmate. Bratne waa keen enough tonight. ' Ho ls hit," whether badly or not, remains to be seen. We can find that out Drive to the nearest drug store and get a list of hospita!:', lt's ten to one shot that' we land him some where among the hospitals." But they searched the hospitals in vain. None o' them had that night re ceived a shot u ? ca?.e, nor had they heard one rep?, ned. Tho man had been unmistakably hit He would not have dared risk the loss of time for a 1 of play-acting,. Evidently he had kept bis head and sought lodgings. To call up doctors would be utter folly; for It would take a week for a thor ough combing. This was the second time the man bad got away. "Perhaps I'm to Hame," admitted Draine, "I taould have advised Miels to stalk him and pot bim If he got the eh:.nee. There's a master mind working Bom.ewr..re back of all this, add ifs time I woke up to the :fact.: But you," turning to the auto ban dits, "you men hire your instructions.

"We haven't had a failure yet," epoke up one of the men, more courageous than h lr, "You are not holding up a bartk] messenger this trip. Remember that. Drive rae as far aa Columbus circlet Leave, me on the ntde street, between the lights, ra I caa take off this mask."' Later ?raino sauntered Into Pabst and ordered a light suppar. This night's nick, more than anything else, brought home to him the fact that his luck waa chung'ng. Foi years he bad proi-??*??u with '.?'.o shady " cupationa w I Ul nu f encountering any memorable failure. He moved in the blgb world, quite unsuspected. He had written booka given lectures, been made a lion ot all the while laughing In his sleeve at the gullibility of human nature. But wtt.itn the. last two weeks he hbo rrtt'.red sartas*} checks. From now on he nm91 move erith the utmost caution. Some one aar playing hts own game, waging warfare unseen. A battle of wits? So be it; but Urn-no intended to play with the rough wita, and he wasn't going to care which way the sword CUL j He hated Stanley Hargreave with all the hatred of hts soul, the hatred of a man balked In love And the] man waB alive, defying him; ulive somewhere In this etty this very night, arith a bullet under hu skin. "Is everything satisfactory, slr?" he heard the bead walter say. "Satisfactory?"' Brame repeated blankly. 7 "Ye* ?ir. You atruck the table as though ?ispicased." "O?"

It was like falling off u log, "Susan." asid Florence as she came into breakfast after her exhilarating ride, 'did you hear pistol shots last night?" "1 heard some noise, but I was so sleepy I didn't try to figure otu wnai it was " VPld you,.Jones?" '.'Yes, Miss Florence. The t-hots came from the stret. A policeman came run ning tip later and said he ?aw two automobiles.on the run. But eviuent ly there wasn't anybody hurt. One has to be careful at night nowadays. There are pi etty bad men abroad. Did you enjoy the ride. "Very much- But there were spots of blood on "the walk near the corner." "Blood?" Jones caught the back ol a chair to steady himself. "Yes. So some one was burt. O, let's lesve this place!" impulsively. "Let us go back to Miss Farlows. You could And a place in the village, ./anea. But if I stay h?re much longer In this elate of unrest.

But not an hour of the day or night passes without this house being watched I seldom see anybody. I can only rense the pres-! ence of a watcher.

Suuan. however, re-, cognized the wisdom ot Jones* state ments. Tliey were safest here The morning rides' continued. To the girl. Who loved the open, lt was [glorious fun. Those ' mad gallop* along tire roads, the ?mell of earth and sea, the tingle In the blond, were the I second best moments of her day. The (tnt? She invariably blushed when she I considered what these first best mn ?monta were. He was a brave young man, good to look al, witty, and al ways onecrful. Why shouldn't she like him? Even Jones liked him Jone?, who didn't seem to like any body It did not matter whether it was wise or not; a worldly point ot view was fattiest from her youthful thoughts, lt was her own affair; her own heart. Five days later, as she and the rid ing master were cantering along tho toad enjoying every blt of it, they beard heard the heat ot hoofu behind, 'liiey drew up and turned. A rider waa approaching, them at a run. It waa the head groom. The man stop ped bis horse in a cloud of dust. .'Sir the stables are on fire!" ; "Fire?" I All the riding master's savings were invested in the stables. The fact that ?he h?d solemnly promised never to I lea vo Florence alone, and that he had accepted a generous bonus slipped from hJr mind al the thought of fire, a-terrible word to any horseman. He I wheeled and star led off at breakneck speed, hi? head groom"-.'clattering be hind him. I' Florcnco naturally wondered which of two courses to pursue: follow them or continue the ride and save at least one horse from the terror of seeing ?flames. She chor J the latter. But ah? did not ride with the earlier zest. She felt depressed She loved horses, and the thought of them dying in those wooden i*abes waa horrifying. ' This fire" however, proved to be In cipient. But il wa> plainly incen diary. Some one had ?et fire to it with a purpose in view. Norton re cognised this fact almost as soon aa the firemen. He bad come this morn ing with the idea Ot au rp r bing Flor eara He was going out on hom tack td Jolts, her. Ills ?pi?e suddenly cold. A II.tn! She had been left alone on the loiui. Me ran over to the garage, secured a car, and went humming out toward the river road. A trap, and only hy the sheerest luck had he turned up In time. Meantime Florence was walking her mount slowly. For once the cvenery passed unobserved. She was deeply engrossed with her thoughts, some of which were happy ami some of which were sad If only her father could I be with her : lie would he the happiest girl alive She was brought out of her revcry by the sight of a man rtnggcring along the road ahead of her Finally he plunged upon his face in the road. Like the tender hearted girl she was she stopped, dismounted, and ran lo the fallen man to give him aid She suddenly found her wrists clapped In two hands like ison The man rose hlB feet, smiling evilly. She struggled wildly but futively "Better be scnjible." he said. "I am stronger than you are. And : don t wish to hurt you. Walk on ahead of me. It will ho utterly useless to scream or cry out. You can see for yourself that we are In a deserted part of the road. If you will promise to act sensibly I shun't lay a hana on you. Do you see that hut -yonder, near the fork in the road? We'll stop there. Now, march!" She dropped her handkerchief, later her bracelet, and finally her crop. In hope that these slight clews might bring her help. She knew that Jones would hear of the Are, and, Anding that she hud not returned with tho riding master, would immediately start out in pursuit She was begin, ning to grow very fond of Jones, wno never rpoke unless spoken tn, who. w. s always at hand, faithful and loyal. *J,?ft From afar came the low rumble of a motor. She wondered if her cap tor heard it.. He did, but his ears tricked him into believing that it came from another direction. Eventually they arrived at the hut, and Florence was forced to enter The man locked the door and waited outside for the automobile which '.ie was expecting He was rather dumfounded when he saw that it war coining from tlie city, not going toward lt. It was Norton. The riderless horse told him enough; the handkerchief and bracelet and crop led him straight for the hut. The man before the hut realized by this' time that be had made a mis I take. He attempted to reenter the hut and prepare to defend it till his com panions hove in sight But Florence, recognized Norton, held the door with ail her strength. The man snarled and turn -d upon Norton, only to re ceive a smashing blow on the jar;. Norton flung upon the door. "Into the car. Florence! There's another car coming up the road. Hurry!" It was not a long chase The car of tho auto bandits, looking like an ordinary tlxicab. was a high power machine; and lt gained swiftly on Norton's four-?yllnder. The reporter waited grimly., "Koop your head down!" he warned Florence. "I'm going to take a pot st their tirer, when they get within range. It 1 miar-, I'm atraid we'll have trouble. Under no circumstan ces attempt to leave this car. Here they come!" 'He suddenly leaned back and fired. It was only chance. The manner in which the cara were lurching made a poor target for a marksman even ot the first order. Chance directed Nor. ton's first bullet into the right for ward tire, which exploded Going at sixty-odd miles an hours, they could not stop the car in time to avoid fatality. The cur careened wildly, I swerved, and plunged down the em bankment Into the river. I Florence covered her eves with her [what he was doing Norton put hlB .arms around her.
