He understood that no one is infallible.
He found the laundering policeman,
who now realized that he stood in for
Whit of the commissioners carpet.
All he could do was to give good de-
scription of the man and woman. Word
was sent broadcast through the city.
The police had to be informed this
time.
Late in the day an officer whose beat
included the ferry landing at Hoboken
said he had seen the three. Everything
had looked all right to him. 1t was
the motherly face of the one and the
benign countenance Of the other that
had blinded him.
At midnight Jones, haggard and
with the air of one beaten, returned
home.

take hand in. So the following night
he departed for Boston, from there to
New York. He proceeded at once to
the apartment of the princess, where
Braine declared that he himself would
go to the obscure village and claim
Florence as his own child. But to
insure absolute success they would
charter Mose's yacht and steam right
up into the primitive harbor.
When Vroon left the apartment Nor
ton saw him. He was a man Of i'm
pulses, and he had found by expert
ence that first impulses are generally
the best. He did not know who Vroon
was. Amy man who called on the
Princess Perigoff while Braine was
with her would be worth following.
On the other hand, Vroon recognized
the reporter instantly and with that
ever-ready and alert mind of his set
about to lure the young man into a
trap out of which he might not easily
come.
ANoAI uCSlOCu " lOllUW Ills MAN.
He might be going on a wild-goose
chase, he reasoned; still his first i'm.
pulses had hitherto served him well.
He looked careworn. He was con-
vinced that Florence was dead, despite
the assertions Of Jones to the con-
trary. He had gone over all the mis-
haps which had taken place and he
was now absolutely convinced that his
whilom friend Braine and the Princess
Perigoff were directly concerned.
Florence had either been going to
or coming from the apartment. And
that memorable day of the abduction
the princess had been in the dry goods
shop.
Vroon took downtown surface car.
and Norton took the same. He sat
huddled in q corner, never suspecting
that Vroon was watching him from a
corner. OF his eye. Norton was not
keen today. The thought of Florence
kept running through his head.
The car stopped and vroon got off.
He led Norton a winding course which
at length ended at the door of a tene.
ment building. Vroon entered. Nor
ton paused, wondering what next to
do, now that his man had reached his
destination. Well. since he had fol-
lowed him all this distance he must
make an effort to find out who he was
and what he was going to do. eau.
tiously he entered the hallway. As
he was about to lay his hand on the
newell post of the dilapidated stairs
the floor dropped from under his feet
and he was precipitated into the cellar.
This tenement belonged to the
Black Hundred; it concealed a thou.
sand doors and hundred traps. Its
history was as dark as its Railways.
When Vroon and his companion.
VINO had been waiting for him, de-
scended into the cellar they found the
reporter insensible. They bound. blind.

still remains In force. The manner In which the
stars were to be arranged In the union Of the

differed considerably In this respect. The rule
followed In our first expansion flags OF 1875 Of
arranging the stars that the whole number
formed one large star was abandoned as new
stars began to appear on the nag. and the stars
were placed In rows, This Ia the form OF the
