dition. bearing in mind always that his
idea IL TO maintain peace by the posses
sion of a sufficient armed force rather
than by its hostile employment, He has
no desire TO turn the country into

day or national humiliation may be in
store for the United States II II cannot
enforce respect by a show OF ample
strength--the best deterrent 10 attack.
"Our mobile army within the limits
OF the continental United States. while
efficient, Is so small that Il only amounts
to about per cent. OF the force which

SYNOPSIS.

Stanley Hargreave. millionaire, after a
miraculous escape from the den OF the
gang of brilliant thieves known as the
Black Hundred, lives the life of re-
cluse for eighteen years. Hargreave one
night enters a Broadway restaurant and
there comes face to face with the gang
leader, Braine. After the meeting, during
which neither man apparently recognizes
the other. Hargreave hurries to his mag
nificsnt Riverdale home and lays plans
for making his escape from the country.
lie writes letter TO the girls school in
New Jersey where eighteen years before
he mad mysteriously left on the doorstep
his baby daughter, Florence Gray. He
also pays visit to the hangar of a
daredevil aviator. Braine and members
of his band surround Hargreave's home
at night but as they enter the house the
watchers outside see balloon leave the
roof. The safe is found empty-the mil
lion which Hargreave was known to have
drawn that day gone. Then some one an
nounced the balloon had been punctured
and dropped to the bottom of the sea.

CHAPTER Nv.
The Flat on the Top Floor.


Braiae crawled from his uncomfort-
able hiding place. His clothes were
soiled and damp, his hat gone. By
a hairs breadth he had escaped the
clever trap laid for him Hargreave
was alive, he had escaped; Braine was
as certain of this fact as he was of
his own breathing. He now knew
how to account for the Pickering light
in the upper story of the warehouse.
His ancient enemy had been watch
ing him all the time. More than this.
Hargreave and the meddling reporter
were in collision. In the flare OF
lights at the end of the gun-play he
had caught the profile of the reporter
Here was dangerous man, who must
be watched with the utmost care.
He, Braine, had been lured to COM
NIT an overt act, and by the rarest
more serious than a cold chill and a
CALLING disappointment.
He crawled along the top of the
pier, listening, sending his dark-accus-
toned glance hither and thither. The
sky in the east was growing paler and
paler. In and out among the bales
of wool, bags of coffee and lemon
crates he slowly and cautiously
wormed his way. Waterman pa
trolled the office side of the ware
house, and Braine found it possible
to creep around the other way. thence
into the street After that he straight
ened up, sought a secondhand shop
and purchased a soft hat, which he
pulled down over his eyes.
He had half a dozen rooms which
he always kept in readiness for such
adventures as this He rented them
furnished in small hotels which never
asked questions of their patrons. To
one of these he went as fast as his
weary legs could carry him. He al
ways carried the key Once in his
room he donned fresh wearing ap-
parel, linen, shoes, and shaved. Then
he proceeded downstairs, the second
hand hat shading his eyes and the
upper part of his face.
At half past twelve Norton entered
the Kniekerbocker cafe-restaurant.
and the first person he noticed was
Braine, reading the mornings paper,
