he was to be found-a place sufficient
ly indicated by the letter. Now as to
the "T."-was ii treasurer" Or was
It ''time?" Or ''true?" Orme had no
way of telling. 1t might even be the
initial of the person who had penned
the instructions.
Without knowing where "A" was,
cryptogram. For that matter. he
realized that unless the secret were
criminal 1t was not his affair. But he
knew that legitimate business in
formation is seldom transmitted by
such mysterious means.
Again and again he went over the
authorizations, but the more closely he
studied them, the more baf1ing he
found them. The real meaning APP
peared to hinge ON the "a" and the
1T" Eventually he was driven to the
conclusion that those two letters
could not be understood by anyone
who was not already partly in the
secret, If secret 1t was. 1t occurred to
him to have the city directory sent
up to him. He might then find the
address of IS. r. Evans" If that per-
son happened to be Chicagoan. But
IL was quite likely that the Chi"
might mean something other than
that Evans" lived in Chicago. Per-
haps, in the morning he would satisfy
his curiosity about IS. r. Evans" but
for the present he lacked the inclina-
ton to press the matter that far.
In the midst of his puzzling, the
telephone bell rang. He crossed the
room and put the receiver to his ear.
"Yes?" he questioned.
The clerks voice answered. "Se-
nor Poritol to see Mr.. Orme."
"Who?"
"S-e-n-o-r-P-or-i-t-o-l," spelled the
clerk.
IL don't know him." said Orme.
There must be some mistake. Are
you sure that he asked for me?"
There was pause. Orme heard a
few scattering words which indicated
that the clerk was questioning the
stranger Then came the informa.
ton: HE says he wishes to see you
about five-dollar bill"
OH" Orme realized that he had
no reason to be surprised We'll, send
him up"
He hung up the receiver and, re.
turning TO the table, put the marked
bill back into his pocketbook and
slipped into drawer the paper on
which he had copied the inscription.

Among the spectators at match
between the Blackburn Rovers and
the Olympic was a little lad about
nine years of age. Though the boys
knowledge of the game may have
been limited, his notion Of correct
play was extremely robust.
Go it, Lympic," he yelled. Rush
'em off their pins. Chatter 'em. Jump
on their chests. Bowl 'em over. Good

When his parent neatly "grassed"
one of the opposing forwards, the
youngster expressed approval by
bawling, Good fer yer, ovid en-" add

CHAPTER l.
The Threshold Of Adventure.

The Threshold Of Adventure.
The roar of State street filed the
ears of Robert Orme not unpleasantly.
He liked Chicago, felt towards the
western city something more than the
tolerant patronizing interest which
so often characterizes the eastern
man. To him 1t was the hub of gen.
uine Americanism--young. aggressive,
perhaps a bit too cocksure, but ever
bounding along with eyes toward the
future. Here was the city of great
beginnings, the city of experiment.
experiment with life; hence its incom-
pleteness-an incompleteness not dis
similar to that of life itself. Chi
cago lived; 1t was the pulse OF the
great middle west.
Orme watched the procession with
clear eyes. He had been strolling
soathward from the Masonic Temple,
into the shopping district The
clangor, the smoke and dust, the hur-
Tying crowds, all worked into his
mood. The expectation of adventure
was far from him. Nor was he a man
who sought impressions for amuse-
ment: whatever came to him he weigh
ed, and accepted or rejected according
as it was valIeless or useful. Whole
some he was; any one might infer
that from his face. Doubtless, his
fault lay in his overemphasis on the
purely practical; but that, after all,
was a lawyers fault, and it was
counterbalanced by a sweet kindness
toward all the world-a loveableness
which made for him a friend of every
chance acquaintance.
II was well along in the afternoon,
and shoppers were hurrying home
ward. Orme noted the fresh beauty
of the women and girls-Chicago has
reason to be proud of her daughters
and his heart beat a little faster.
Not that he was a man to be caught
by every pretty stranger; but scarce
ly recognized by himself, there was a
hidden spring of romance in his prac-
tical nature. Heart-free, he never met
a woman without wondering whether
she was the one. He had never found
her; he did not know that he was
the unconscious question.
A distant whistle, the changing Of
,gongs. the rapid beat OF galloping
hoofs-fire engines were racing down
the street. Cars stopped, vehicles OF
all kinds crowded in toward the curbs.
Orme paused and watched the fire
horses go laundering by, their smo-
king enariots swaying behind them
and dropping long trails OF sparks.
Small boys were running, men and
women were stopping TO gaze after
the passing engines. but Orme's at
tention was taken by something that
was happening near by. and as the
gongs and the hoof-beats grew fainter
he looked with interest to the street
beside him.
He had got as far az the corner OF
Madison street. The scramble to get
out of the way OF the engines had
here resulted in a traffic jam. Two
policemen were moving, about, shout
ing orders for the acknowledgement of
the street cars and vehicles which
seemed to be inextricsbly wedged to-
gether
A burly Irish teamster was below
ing at his horse. The hind wheel of
a smart barouche was caught in the
fore wheel of delivery wagon, and
the driver Of the delivery wagon sTas

in terms which seemed to embarrass
the elderly gentleman who sat in the
barouche. Ormes eye Travelled
through the outer edge of the dis
turbance, and sought its center.
There In the midst of the tangle
was big black touring car. Its one
occupant was girl-and such a girl!
Her fawn-colored cloak was thrown
open; her face was unveiled. Orme
was thrilled when he caught the
| glory of her face-the clear akin,
Drowned by outdoor living; the de.
mure but regular f. atures; the eyes
that seemed to transmute and reflect
softly all Impressions from without
Orme had never seen any one like
her-se nobly unconscious OF self, SO
appealing and yet so calm.
She was waiting patiently, inter.
ested in the clamor about her, but
seemingly undisturbed by her own
part In it. Orme's eyes did not leave
her face. He was merely one of a
crowd at the curb, uRnoted by her
but when after time, he became
aware that he was staring, he felt the
blood rush to his cheeks, and he NUT
tered: What a boor / ami" And
then, But who can she be? Who can
| she be-"
A policeman made his way to the
black car Orme saw him speak to
f, the girl; saw her brows knit; and he
quickly threaded his way into the
street. His action was barely con.
scious. but nothing could have stopped
him at that moment.
You'll have to come to the station,
miss" the policeman was saying.
But what have / done?" Her voice
was broken music.
You've violated the traffic regula-
tions, and made all this trouble, that's
what you've DONE"
I'm on very important errand,
she began, and"
Il can't help that, miss, you ought
to have had some one with you that
knew the rules"
Her eyes were perplexed, and she
looked about her as II for help. For
moment her gaze fell on Orme, who
was close to the policeman's elbow
Now, Orme had winning and dis
arming smile Without hesitation, he
touched the policeman on the shout
der, beamed pleasantly, and said:
Pardon me. officer, but this car was
! forced over by that dray"
"She was on the wrong SIDE" re-
turned the policeman, after glance
which modified his first intention to
take offence. She had no business
| over here"
1T was either that or collision
Ny wheel was scraped. as it was"
She, too, was smiling now.
The policeman pondered. He liked
to be called "officer;" he liked to be
smiled upon; and the girl. to judge
from her manner and appearance
might well be the daughter Of a man
of position. We'll" he said after q
moment, be more careful another
time" He turned and went back 70
his work among the other vehicles
covering the weakness of his sur
render by a fresh display OF angry al
thority.
The girl gave little sigh OF relief
and looked at Orme. Thank you,
she said.
Then he remembered that he did
not know this girl. Can 1 be OF
further service?" he asked.
NO" she answered. 81 think not

the other, but hope you are"
And the whistling was discontin-

you have some golf with US at ARA

Delighted! Say, Bessie, do you

carr"
"What?"
do you know a tall, dark girl who
has black touring carr"
Il know lots OF tall. dark girls, and
several of them have black touring
cars. Why?"
who are they?"
There was a pause and little
chuckle; then: Now, Bob, that won't
do. You must tell me all about it to-
morrow. Call for us in time to catch
the one-four."
That was all that Orme could get
out of her; and after little banter
and brief exchange of greetings
with Tom, who was called to the tele-
phone by his wife. the wire was per.
mitted TO rest.
Orme pushed a chair to the window
OF the sitting room and smoked lazily,
looking out over the beautiful expanse
of Lake Michigan, which reflected
from its CLASSY surface the wonderful
opalescence of early evening. He
seemed to have set forth on a new and
adventurous road How strangely the
girl of the car had come into his life!
Then he thought OF the five-dollar
bill, with the curious inscription. He
took 1t from his pocketbook and ex-
amined 1t by the fading light. The
words ran the full length of the face.
Orme noticed that the writing had a
foreign look. There were fourishes
which seemed distinctly un-American.
He turned the bill over. Apparent
ly there was no writing on the back.
but as he looked more closely he saw
dark blur in the upper left-hand
corner. Even in the dusk he could
make out that this was not a spot OF
dirt; the edges were defined too dis-
tinctly for a smudge and it was not
black enough for an ink-blot.
Moving to the center table, he
switched on the electric lamp, and
looked at the blur again. 1t stood out
plainly now, a, series OF letters and
numbers:
Evans. s. r. Chi. A. 100 N. 21O E.
T."
The first thought that came to Orme
was that this could be no hoax. A
Joker would have made the curious
cryptogram more conspicuous. But
what did il mean? Was II secret
formula? Did 1t give the location OF
buried treasure? And why in the
name of common sense had 1t been
written on a five-dollar bill?
More likely. Orme reasoned, 1t con-
cealed information for or about
some PERSONS. r. Evans" probably.
And who was this S. r. Evans?
The better to study the mystery,
Orme copied the inscription on a sheet
of note paper, which he found in the
table drawer From the first he de-
cided that there was no cipher. The
letters undoubtedly were abbrevia-
tons. Evans" must be. as he had al
ready determined, a mans name.
