chauffeur. Then Wen tell you Just
how to strike the best roads to Lake
wood"
The spying Sam waited TO hear no
more, but glided quietly up the
street as we shot down along the ave-
nue. to the ferry.
Rockledge was handsome estate
and the house was one OF the show
places OF Lakewood. Accordingly,
Elaine lost no time in taking advan-
tage OF the recreation in the country
which she had promised herself.

paraphernalla when she announced
that che was going to use II right
away. For several minutes stood on
the veranda overlooking the bright
green terraces. holding the sketching
kit and the umbrella and admiring the

Elaine came tripping gayly out on
the porch In the neatest OF little
sketching costumes.
Some parasol," bantered. opening
the gay green and white striped shade.

and she started to sketch.
Outside his hangar, rough shed
with a runway before It. Sprague was
standing, talking to WI and Long Sin.
MASTER" interrupted low voice,
deferentially.
II was Sam. who had hurried TO the
hangar after watching Elaine and
the rest Of US ride off.
"Well?" demanded WI.
The girl with another, her cousin,
has gone with that slave of Kennedy
to q place they call Lakewood across
the river
Though they did not know II, Kennedy
had not been idle. With the aid of an
agency of private detectives, which he
had often employed for routine Jobs,
as well as the police and some secret
service men, he had located and set
a watch, with his characteristic thor
oughness, on every aeroplane hangar
In and about New York.
Even as the three plotters moved
over to the aeroplane one OF Craigs
detectives lay hidden directly under
the runway.
Out on the aviation field, In front Of
the hangar, Sprague had dragged the
aeroplane down the runway, and there
he stopped to explain to WI and Long
Sin the workings Of the gyroscope sta

He climbed into the machine, and

ing place, had not missed motion. AS
the aeroplane disappeared he crawled
out and quickly made his way down
the road.
Meanwhile, high over the country,
Sprague and WI we're flying, easily
picking out the general direction of
Lakewood.
People at Lakewood may still re-
call the aeroplane that circled again
and again over the town and the beau
tiful estates. Sprague finally located
wellington Browns, but Elaine was
not there, and there was no use vast
Ing the precious arrows on anyone
else. WI peered about eagerly
through field glass.
There they are--over on that hill

raj exclamation.
Sure enough. they could see Elaine
under the umbrella, quite conspicu-
ously, with myself posed some feet
away,
'Hurry-speed II up" WI urged
Sprague. indicating the exact spot.
Kennedy had FASTENED out to the
fort even before our departure, and
there he had met Lieutenant Waters.
AS they were examining the freight
car, an orderly cane running to them.

he asked.
Yes" spoke up Craig. Il am Mr..
Kennedy"
Someone on the telephone. sir.
You can take IL at the guardhouse.
He says it's urgent"
Craig FASTENED across with the or
derby.
I've located our man." shouted his
detective over the wire, IAN aviator
