slipped 'fht6'his sRohfddr'one'eeeh-
ing on tower Broaa'#ay, and he
recognized the escaping form'of
Spinellit as. the person. who put II
there. After that he armed him
self with revolver and a large
stock of blank cartridges. He
didn't want to kill anybody, be-
cause that. would be inebntenient,
but he had Theafthydesire to pro

1t took about one month. for
Dick Wendali to persuade Mile.
Lita that the only way in which
he could properly prevent Her

influence Of the Italian "a. yiolinist
was by becoming her ffianced hus

true American fashion. In.
