An idea came to him: There he saw a

he bent over and pretended to be tink-

AS the car was about to pass he de-

not seeing the runabout, and was
struck and knocked down.

THIRTY-FOURTH EPISODE
THE HAR3OR DEFENSE PLANS.

Alone in the doorway before his
rude shack on the shore of the prom
ontory sat an old fisherman, gazing
out fixedly at the harbor as though
deeply concerned over the weather,
which, as usual, was unreasonable.
Suddenly he started and would have
disappeared into his hut but for the
fact that, although he could not him.
self be seen, he had already seen the
intruder.
It was a trooper from Fort Dale. He
galloped up and, as though obeying to
the letter his instructions, handed an
envelope to the fisherman. Then, with
out a word, he galloped away again.
The fisherman opened it quickly. In
side was photograph and note. He
read:
FORT DALE.
Professor Arnold:
j. Smith, clerk In the war depart
rnent, has disappeared. We are not
sure, but fear that he has a copy of
the new Sandy Hook defense plans. 1t
is believed he is headed your way. He
walks with a slight limp. Look out
for him.
LIEUTENANT WOODWARD.
For a long time the fisherman ap-
peared to study the face on the photo
graph until he had it indelibly implant-
ed in his memory
Finally he turned and entered his
hut Hastily he took off his stained
REFER. From a wooden chest he drew
another outfit of clothes. The trans
formation was complete. When he is
sued forth from his hut again, it was
no longer the aged disciple of Izaak
Walton. He was now a trim chauf-
feur, bearded and goggled.
In the library of his bungalow, Del
Mar was pacing up and down, now and
then scowling to himself, as though
there flashed over his mind stray recol-
lections of how some of his most cher
ished plans were miscarrying.
Still, on the whole, he had nothing
to complain of. For, a moment later
the valet entered with telegram for
which he had evidently been waiting.
Del Mar seized it eagerly and tore
open the yellow envelope, On the
blank was printed in the usual way
the following noncommittal message:
Washington, D. c., August IL, 1915.
Mr.. Del Mar:
What you request is coming. An
swer to sign of the ring. SMITH.
Good" muttered Del Mar as he fin
ished reading. strange, what little
gold will do-when you know how to
dispose of it,"
He smiled cynically to himself at the
sentiment.
At the little railroad station they
were quite proud of the fact that at
least two of the four hacks had been
replaced already by taxicabs.
1t was, then, with some surprise and
not a little open jealousy that they
saw a new taxicab drive up and take
its stand by the platform.
If the chauffeur, transformed from
the lonely fisherman, had expected a
cordial reception, he might better have
stayed before his hut, for the glances
the other drivers gave him we're as
black and lowering as the clouds he
had been looking at.
The new chauffeur got off his seat.
Instead OF trying to brazen it out, he
walked over, to the others who were
standing in a group waiting for the ap-
preaching train whose whistle had al
ready sounded.
I'm not going to locate here per-
manently,' he said, pulling out a roll
of bills as he spoke. Leave any fare
l claim to me- he added, passing a
bill of good denomination to each of
the four jehus.

FITZGERALD WINS FIRST.

The first game of three-game
series against Eufaula was won by
the visitors by the walk, away score
of nine to two. The game went for
only five innings until Umpire Bos-
tick called it on account of dark
ness.
At first, up to the fourth inning,
the game stood two to nothing in
favor of the local team, and the out
look was dark for FitZ; but Fitz-
gerald picked up and scored three in
the fourth and six in the fifth. This
victory was complete as unexpected.
The railroad connections are poor
and the boys had a pretty bad night
and as they could not have been
in the best of condition. However,
they won the game.
Lefty Roseberry held the mound
for Fitzgerald and. in spite of a
badly hurt finger, pitched fine
game. He has got stuff and is game.
