WI Fang had already plugged In
the six receivers Of the detectaphone
and, though we did not know 1t. was
eagerly listening with the others down
in the cellar as Kennedy gave his
orders for the raid.
"Tom," muttered WI, you must get

Inez and Long Sin had scarcely had

WI Fang had outwitted US and
saved both Long Sin and Inez by the
marvellous little eavesdropper.
1t was some time after Kennedy
left the Dodge house that Elaine re-

about the note which she had received
with the flowers. As she entered she

cried Elaine excitedly, as she hurried
out for her wraps. Who knows what

Finally Craig went over to his desk
and took out a small piece Of appara-

1t was only q matter Of a few min
utes before Chase Joined Kennedy,
and together they went back to China

voice just what it was he wanted

The operative furtively watched
Inez and Sam talking until finally she

creak. He paused at each door until
he was sure that there was no one on
the other side.
At one. however. he could hear low
voices. He listened a moment, then
tried the knob softly. The door was
locked. Carefully he put his foot on
the knob and raised himself up by
gripping the transom.
There were Inez and Long Sin talk
ing earnestly as Inez removed her
wraps while Long Sin laid out a couple
of opium pipes and cooked two pills of
the precious hop with practiced hand:
Chase let himself down as softly as
he had pulled himself up, and got
away without being seen.

Kennedy returned to the apartment
after dispatching Chase on his mis-

Craig was still bending over Long

he heard the scurry of footsteps out

Craig rushed to the door, but not in
time to close it.
Instantly his gun spat fatal dab
of smoke and fire at the foremost
Chinaman. who dropped. Craig seized
the next onrushing Oriental and flung
him over his head. butting him like a
human battering ram directly into W..
Craig's onslaught had been fiercer

the door on WI and the rest.
They recovered in a few seconds,
and returned to the attack, battering
against the door. 1t swayed and
