This escape made MIN more cautious
for a time, but confinement was irk-
some to him, and he made an occasion
al sally In disguise. One evening at q
restaurant a man at neighboring Ia.
BILE made offensive remarks to him, and
Adams, going over to where he sat,
slapped his face. The man did not at
the time seem disposed to follow up
the affair, but the next day Adams re-
ceived challenge from one Tucker.
Adams naturally inferred that the
man was the one he had had the quar-
rel with, bat wondered how the fellow
knew who he was. However, he was
too much of a fighter to avoid any en-.
counter and accepted promptly. He at
once sent for brother officer, and the
affair was arranged to come off al
dawn In order to avoid the bailiffs.
Before leaving the house the grounds
were searched, and the coast being
clear the party drove away In closed
carriage. Finding the others already
at the appointed place, the ground was
paced Off and the principals placed In
position. Suddenly from behind neigh
boring trees number of men stepped
forth and surrounded the combatants.
Then Mr.. Tucker, throwing down his
weapon, pulled summons. Adams,
Disguised at the turn the affair had
taken, raised his piston, aimed at the
paper and put a hole through it, al
the same time sending 1t floating on
the morning breeze. He then knocked
down three of the men surrounding
him, but the paper was recovered and
read to him before he could get away.
The doughty captain returned to the
house he had been hiding in, much
disgruntled at having been the victim
of so well laid a trick. The truth is
the man who had insulted him In the
restaurant was one of the detectives
watching for him, suspected his iden-
tity and had insulted him purposely.
The captain had been Swallowed on his
way home and the challenge sent to
trap him, but OH bis return be found
a telegram that Mr. Swift, senior, was
dead and there was no further neces-
sity for his hiding.
Thus 1t was that Captain Adams
saved the fortune of the man who had
taken the girl he loved from him. and
by doing so kept the family from ruin
AS soon as his services could be dis
pensed with he proceeded on his trip.
followed by the blessings of those he
had served. On his return he hunted
up the man who had fired a summons
at him Instead of a bullet and induced
him to enter the secret service depart
ment of the army.
Ten years lated Adams, then a
colonel, returned to visit the Swifts
He found both father and mother dead,
but in their Oldest daughter he saw
the counterpart Of his old love. His
exploits with the detectives had caught
her fancy when n girl OF ten and she
was ready to fall In love with the
middle aged colonel. And SO the FOR
tune he had saved for his rival be
found useful to his own wife.
