He taught her, suddenly In his :.rin$. rkissed' her, rap lightly'to the door; and waa gone befare ?ho could recover from her astonishment. Tho affair wont smoothly, withoujt h hitch. Norton and hlB men gained I'M- house through thc tunnel without attracting the least attention. The Mack' Hundred, wa ton lng- 'the freut and rear of the lu,use, never dreamed Ibu! there was a secret cabinet room. Half ah hour later the head of tue Beeret service, accompanied by hjs men, togethor with "Spider" Hosgs, I who waa in high feather over his suc cess, arrived, demanded admittance, and went at thc fount of the business ut once. "Four name is Jones," began thc chief. . The butler nodded though his face evinced no little bewilderment at thc appearance of these men: "What is it you wish, slr?" "I am from the secret service and I have it from a pretty good source that there in counterfeit money hidden in tliis house. More than that, I can put my hand on the very place it is hid den." "That ia impossible, sir." declared Jones .indignantly. "I'm an old hand. Mr. Jones. It will not do.you a blt of good to put on that bold frpnt." , Beggs smiled. "Hqw was he to know .that tjils was a comedy aet especially for his benefit. . "I should like to see that money," said Jones, not quite so bravely. "Come with ino,'' said the secret ser vice man.* "Where's'the library?" "Beyond that door' sir." The chief,.beckoning to his men, dn tcred the library, went directly to' .a certain shelf, extracted three vol umes, and' there lay' the money jiu three neat .packages. "Good heavens!" gasped Jones. "I shall have to request you and the family to accompany me to the sta tloa"' "But it is all utterly impossible, sir! I knew nothing of that money, nor how it got there. It's a plot. I de clare on my oath, sir, that I am inno cent, that Mles ri or eh ce and her com-' paaiqn know nothing nimm it." "You wm navo io len au mm io ibo federal judge, sir. My duty is to take you ail to the station. It would be Just a- well hot to say anything more, sir." "Very well; but some one shall smart for this outrage.'" "That remains to be aeon," was the terse command of the secret service man. jx '?He led his prisoners away directly. Norton and hui men had to walt ?far into tho night. Thc Black Hundred did not lotend to make > any mistake this tin... bj*.a hasty move. At quarter alter 10 they? descended. raine wast , ; ?not with them ; This was, due ,to the urgent request.pf Olga, who atlll had Uer doubts. The men rioMul, about j the house, searching nooka -and cornor>f examining floors and walls, opening hooks, pulling out drawers, but they found nothing. They ' talked freely, however, and tho dictagraph registered every word. The printing plant, which had so long defied discovery, waa in the cellar ot the house occupied by the Black Hundred. Jorton and his men determined to fellow and raid the building. And ?the reporter prom ised^ himself a good front page story without In any way ?onfltctihs with bia pram'se? im Jones. F.veuts came . to pass aa they ex pected. The trailing waa not. the eas iest thing. Norton knew about where the building was, but hg could go to it liroctiy. Ho w?a quit? confident that Its entrance was Identical with that which had the trap door through which he,had.hean flung that memorable day when he had been .shanghaied. Whop they .reached the building he warned the men: to hug the wall to the stairs. The trap yawned, but no one was hurt' They scampered up the stairs Jlke a 1st of.eager boys; broke the door In-to .find the weird execu tive chamber dark and empty ?nd an acrid *?&V?' tn their nostrils. Thia .tatter grew stifling as they blundered about in the dtrk. By luck Norton found the exit and called to tho mer. to follow. They saw Beggs at the tob cf the stairway and called out to him to surrender. Re held up his hands and the. stairs collapsed. Heal fire I bur?t ont and Norton and his com pan - ' ton had a desperate battle with flame and smoke to gain tho otrcet The. fire waa put oot finally, but there waa nothing in tho ruins to prove that there had been a counter feiting den there. There was. however, at least onc coasoling feature; In the future the Black Hundred would have to hold 'their ?tar-chaiobor* else where. U was checkmate; or, rather, lt wt?? a draw.. By Harold CHATTER XV. ANOTHER TRAP S KT. If the truth ls to ho told, .loues was us deeply chagrined over the outcome of tho counterfeit deni as was lirainf. They hud both lulled signally to realty tho goal sought. Hut thia time the ojrj i-anizr.tio-i had broken even with Jon JJ ?ind this fact disturbed the butler. Ii tulKht signify tliut the turning point had been reached, und that In the fit* ure the good luck might swing over to the Bide of the Black Hundred. Jones redoubled his caution.?, rcitor ated his warnings, and slept less then ever. Indeed, us he went over the groUnd he conceded u point to the -Rluck Hundred. He would no longer be ab!? to keep tubs on the organiza tion. They had deserted their .former quarters absolutely. The agent ot Wh?in they had leased the building knew nothing except that ho would have to repair the pince. Thc rent had been puid a year in advance, as it has been these last eight years. He hail dealt through an attorney who kne'jr no moro of his ? lient- than the agent.' Ko it will be seen that Jones had,m reality received a check. "Ah, Miss Florence," and Jones UUP ped his-pocket, "'you: forget that roi cannot dismiss mc hy word. I amjle gally in control herc. I am sorry tpe you have made me recall' this iaclj ti you." Florence begun to cry solCtly. ! P "I am sorry, very sorry," said trij butler, torn between-.the desire j U comfort her and the law that he p?? laid down for himself. "It is veij"; gloomy today, a...: perhaps we arc a little depressed hy it. I nm sorryS? "O, I realze, Jones, that,,all this up.? ending mysery und secrecy have a sn purpose at hack.
