closed.
Without waiting, Long Sin and his
servant entered stealthily. The China.
man stood in the doorway and LONG
Sin slowly crept over to Kennedy's
chair.
AS he reached down to pin the sign
of the serpent on Kennedy's appar.
emily ifeless body, Craig seemed sud.
denly to come to life He seized LONG
Sin and they struggled fercely, while
Craig, freeing one hand, whipped ont
his automatic and fired sideways at
the Chinaman In the doorway.
The Chinaman fell, lay there a mo.
ment, then raised himself up and with
fast ebbing strength managed to crawl
out of the doorway and down the hall
1t was a death grarple between
Craig and the willy Long Sin. At last
they had each other face to face. But
it was unequal. Short and sharp came
the moves. -
Craig had in his pocket a newly in.
vented pair of handouts which
snapped automatically over first one
and then the other Of Long Sins bony
wrists. Then he pressed the bracelets
tighter until even Long Sin WINGED.
AS Craig stood painting over his
prisoner, the wounded Chinaman stag
gered downstairs until he almost fell
into the cellar.
Master" he gasped. "He is-alive!"
The mere hint of Kennedy's name

Finally he pushed the rat into the
and an instant later, loosed the ferret
after it, as IL on q leash of wire.
There WI stood paying out the wire
as the ferret scampered after the
scared rat.
WI faithfully paid out the wire, hop
ing for the result he had calculated
carefully.
" At last the tugging at the spool OF
wire ceased Three sharp jerks told
him he had succeeded. Then WI set
the transmitter in the hole in the
wall close up to the Dashboard, which
he had replaced.
.
Perhaps half an hour after our re.
turn into the laboratory after Kennedy
had soaked the mat, he decided after
much elaboration to attempt to carry
the war into the enemy's country. We
left the laboratory, he to seek some
clue, to go down to the Star, where
I had little work to do.
Kennedy had scarcely hidden me
good-by and turned out of the campus
on the avenue, when he happened to
see a face in the crowd which inter
ested him.
It was that of the woman who had
posed as Elaine-Innocent Inez He
paused a moment as she went by and
gazed after her. She had not seen
him. This was too good an opportu-
nifty to miss. He turned and followed
her to the Mandarin, chop suey joint.
"Is the master in?" she whispered
to the proprietor.
'No," he replied, "but Long Sin is
in the other place."
A short time afterward, as they still
talked, Kennedy after pausing outside
the chop suey joint, decided to enter.
While Inez and Sam were engaged
in earnest conversation he sat down at
a table near by with his back to them.
AS nearly as he could make out,
there was a room somewhere which
was at least one headquarters of Long
Sin, if not WI himself. But it was too
risky to remain.
Around on Park row again, he
stopped in drug store where there
was a telephone booth and called up
the agency whose operatives he had
frequently employed on routine mat
tiers like shadowing.
"Can you send Chase down here i'm

turned to the library, still thinking
about the note which she had received
with the flowers. AS she entered she
hardly noticed that both Marie an6
Jennings were there.
She had scarcely awakened from
her day dream in which she was walk
ing, as it were, when her quick eye
caught sight of the vase of red roses
on the window sill.
"Who put those flowers there?" she
demanded of the astounded butler and
maid, as she dashed them to the
floor.
Neither of them, naturally, knew q
thing about 1t. Nor did Aunt Joseph

room at the moment

out for her wraps. WHO knows what
may have happened?"
We returned to our apartment. cha,

ture either Long Sin or even get evil

AS we entered the apartment, Craig
dropped into chair, scowling to him
self. I watched him in gloomy SYM
pathy. Suddenly his face frightened.
What do you think they"
He cut me short with bis finger on
his lips, pantomiming silence. Instead
OF answering me he wrote on a slip Of
paper and handed it to me:
There must be detectaphone in
this room. Talk about the weather
anything--while locate It,"
Finally Craig went over to his desk
and took out small piece of appara-

He placed a peculiar telephonelike
contrivance attached to one end Of

magnet and carried the thing carefully
about the room.

shadowing in Chinatown for him."
1t was only matter of few min
utes before Chase joined Kennedy
and together they went back to China.
town, Craig explaining to him in low
voice just what it was he wanted
done.
The operative furtively watched
Inez and Sam talking until finally she
rose and went out by the street door
She turned abruptly on the street and
entered doorway that led up in the
same building, only outside.
Chase entered the dark, ill-smelling
hallway and mounted the steps eau
tiously, careful not to make them
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 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-
sion, and there met him as soon as
! was through down at the Star office.
We were talking over our plans
when there came a sudden knock at
the door. Craig opened it. It was
Chase.

excitedly. Its over that restaurant.

The wounded Chinaman had only
strength to shake his head in the neg

"Then there is time yet" ground
out WI furiously. Follow me-"
Craig was still bending over Long
Sin making sure of his capture when
he heard the scurry of footsteps out
side. 1t was WI and his servants.
Craig, rushed to the door, but not in
time to close it.
Instantly his gun spat a 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
human battering ram directly into WI.
Craig's onslaught had been fercer
and more unexpected than the China
men had bargained for. They re-
coiled. Kennedy instantly slammed
the door on WI and the rest.
They recovered in a few SECONDS
and returned to the attack, batterlng
against the door. 1t swayed and
creaked with the weight of the Chi
namen pushing against it, while Ken
nedy plugged away blindly with his
gun through the panels.

minutes passed, what was happening

We dashed upstairs. AS we came
down the hall we caught glimpse OF
WI Fang and his underlings at oui

through.
They were too late to get Kennedy
but we were too late to get them.
WI knocked out the foremost por
liceman and dashed down the hallway
with another after him. He mauageo

smell.
Cyanide" he muttered to himself
under his breath, laying the pipe down
gingerly.
For moment he thought, then a
sudden impulse seemed to seize him
His mind was made up. He moved
closer to the marked Dashboard. Sud
denly he uttered sharp cry.
"Hello-central! Help! Help! I'm
poisoned"
At the same time he struck the wall
blow as though he were falling.
Down in the cellar the six China
men looked at each other in unfeigned
delight as they heard the call for help.
Quickly WI pulled the detectarhone
receiver off his head.
"Here-take this" he ordered Long
Sin, handing him a paper which he
drew from under his blouse.
Long Sin took it and looked at it
with a smile of satisfaction. He un-
derstood. On the paper was drawn
Wu's sign Of the serpent, with fangs
striking viciously and VIGOROUSLY.
Reckoning to another of the China
men, Long Sin went out and upstairs
Meanwhile Craig, who had been
listening at the door expecting some
such incursion, heard Long sin an

APPLES BRING GOOD PRICE
Growers Will Do Better Than Last
 Year, Although Yield is Smaller.

Rogers, Sept. 18.-Reports from ap- pie growers of Benton county indicate that the crop will be about 50 per cent of a fall yield. The fruit is un- usually large and a beautiful color. Twelve cars have been loaded from Rogers this week, and the price for bulk apples ranged from $100 per 100 bushels up to $125. This is the best price since 1912. One grower yester- day sold his entire crop from the tree on October 1 for $2.50 per barrel. Buyers are gathering here from all over the country, and while the crop is considerably shorter than last season, the difference in price will give the growers better profit.

 Responsible for Sons Death.

Batesville, Ark, Sept. 19-Fred Durfee has through his attorneys, Hal l.. Norwood of Little Rock and Ri cradson X Ruddell of this city, filed suit for S10,0OO in the Independence
 County Circuit Court against Drs. R. C. Rorr, F. A. Gray and o. J. T. Johnson, who conduct sanitar- ium here. In the complaint the plain tiff alleges that he placed his son. Dolph Durfee, a young school teacher in the sanitarium for treatment and that during the sons illness he was left in his sick room alone, being all lowed to wander to the porch, from which he either fell or walked dis tance of several feet, sustaining in juries which the complaint alleges caused the young mans death a few hours later. The occurrence took place on the night of Aug. 26, 1915, The plaintiff who is also administra- tor of the sons estate is a very pro- minent farmer of Saffell, this county.

GIANT SYNDICATE
 WILL HANDLE LOAN
Report Says Bankers Will Re- ceive Commission for Work Amount Undetermined.-LOan to be About $800,OOO,OOO.

New York, Sept. 19.-The proposed loan to Great Britain and France, it is reported tonight, will be under written by large syndicate of Amer ican financiers and bankers who will receive a commission. The securities, it was said, will be British and French per cent government bonds and the price to the investors is to be par.
 The amount of the loan will be be-. tween $600,000,00O and $800,O0O, ,0OO. Whether munitions of war will be in- cluded has not been decided.
 The underwriting syndicate will be the largest of it's kind ever established in the United States and probably will be open to all national and state banks and trust companies.
 It is reported, the conferees intend to place the bonds with any bank at a figure only a shade better than that which the investor will have to pay.
 It is said to be possible that sep arate credit loan will be established to provide funds for payment of war munitions, but this is regarded as un- likely.

After a lapse of nearly year a case of human plague occurred in the city of New Orleans on the 27th of August. This case was confirmed as true bubonic plague on September 8th.
