of zest as they did so. On her part,

Braiue laughed.
And Jims boat ran afoul some rocks
and into the water he went. He had

the drifting launch.
Where have they hidden that

Il don't know"
We'll, we'll; I've given you your

he snarled.
He rolled up his sleeves and stepped
toward her. She braced herself but
did not turn her eyes from mis-. Sud.
denly, from nowhere at all, came a
pair of hands. One clutched the gun
vale and the other laid hold of Braine.
A quick pull followed and Blaine be-
gan to topple. But even as lie tell
he managed to fling himself atop his
assailant; and it was only when the
struggle began in the water that he
recognized the reporter. All the devil
in him came to the surface and ne
fought with the f1erceness of a tiger
to kill, kill, kill. In nearly every in
stance this meddling reporter had
checkmated him. This time one or the
other of them should stay in the
water.
Norton recognized that he had a
large order before him to disable
Braine. The recognition between
them was now frank and absolute;
there could never again be any diplo-
matte sidestepping.
You're dead man, Norton!"
painted Braine, as he reached for the
reporters throat
Norton said nothing, but struck the
hand aside. For moment they both
went under. They came up sputter-

terribly enervating struggle.
Florence could do nothing. The
boat in which she sat continued to
drift away from the fighting men.
