Tear of thy mask, Columbia! Tear il off
And show thy moving heart before the
world.
Heed not the timid plant or jeering scofF.
Brave all, ere Honor's noble flag is furled.
Thy veins flow free, Columbia-free as air;
hundred million .,eople draw thy breath.
Is there accomplishment thou shouldst not
dare?
Hast thou one son that breads a patriots
death?
There's many a fault in History's stormy
page.
For which expediency has found excuse
But never one in which a nations gage
Was kept unthrown when Honor called its
use.
When we have crumbled to forgotten dust
And present childhood guides Columbias
way,
These dreful times will still be oft dis
cussed:
But will men ask, What did our fathers
say"
With wOful eyes the CHASTITY tale they'll
The hosts Of slaughtered dead will bring
10 view,
With all the broken laws Of God and man,
And they will cry. What did our fathers
do ?"
Then lift thine eyes, Columbia! Look ATARI
Descry the heritage thy sons will facel
Remember that for good or ill., the star
That now directs thy course will light thy
race. (. G..

note contained in it. signed by the arm

Rheinholdt diamonds and the skeleton
may be hidden together. While Laura,
Quests secretary, shadows Craig, the pro-
fessor's valet, Quest and Lenora, his as
sistant. find the skeleton in q hut in the
professors garden. and discover there an
fnhuman creature, half monkey and half
man. AS the professor explains, the hut

"Of course I do" Quest replied
coolly "You garroted and robbed an
old man and had the spree Of your life.
The old man happened to be friend
Of mine, so took the trouble to see
that you, paid for it. Well?"
Five years Of hell, that's what I

Sounds remarkably unpleasant -
Quest admitted. You'd better hurry
or the boss will be back"
Gallagher finally slammed the door.
Quest heard the heavy footsteps of
the two men as they turned toward
the section house. He drew a little
case from his pocket.
He opened what seemed to be a
little mahogany box. looked at the ball

looked across to the sofa. Then he
looked at French.

The professor pushed past. He had
looked around the room, and gazed at
the two bodies with an expression Of
blank and absolute terror. Then he
fell back into Craig's arms.
"The poor girl" he cried. "Horri-

asked quickly.

what I found"
Quest stood over the body of his
valet for a moment. The man was OBJ
viously dead. The inspector took his
handkerchief and covered up the head.
A few feet away was heavy paper
weight.
KILLED by a blow from behind"
French remarked grimly, with that
little affair. Look here!"
They glanced down at the girl.
Quests eyebrows came together quick
ly. There were two blue marks upon
her throat where a mans thumbs
might have been.
"The hands again." he muttered.
The inspector nodded.
"Can you make anything of it?"
mot yet," Quest confessed. 81 must
think"
The inspector glanced at him curl
ously.
Where on earth have you been to-"
he demanded.
Been to?" Quest repeated.
Look in the mirror!" French sug-
gested.
Quest glanced at himself. His col
lar had given way, his tie was torn, q
button and some of the cloth had been
wrenched from his coat, his trousers
we're torn and he was covered with
dust. ~
'Tll tell you about my trouble a lit
tie later on" he replied. "Say, can't
we keep those girls out?"
They were too late. Laura and Len
ora were already upon the threshold.
Quest swung round toward them.
"Girls," he said, there has been
some trouble here. Go and wait up
stairs, Lenora, or sit in the hall.

Laura, you had better telephone to
the police station and for a doctor.
That's right, isn't it, Inspector"
"Yes!" the latter assented thought
fully.
Lenora, white to the lips, staggered
a few feet back into the hall. Laura
set her teeth and fingered.

Laura turned away half dazed.'
I'D have trusted Ross with my 1ife,"
Quest continued, "but he must have
been alone in the house when the girl
came. Do you suppose it was the
usual sort of trouble?"
Inspector French stopped down and
picked up the paper-weight. Across it
was stamped the name Of Sanford

"Of course 1t u.s." Quest answered

"Why not" Quest replied looking

CHAPTER XI.

Mrs. Rheinholdt welcomed the In
spector with a beaming smile as he
stepped out of his Office and ap-
preached her automobile.
How nice of you to be so punctual,
Mr. French" she exclaimed, making
room for him by her side. "Will you
tell the man to drive to Mr.. Quest s
house in Georgia square?"
The inspector obeyed and took his
place in the luxurious limousine.
How beautifully punctual we are!"
she continued, glancing at the clock.

The chauffeur, who saw him coming.
started up and climbed to his seat.
Quest took his place.
Drive to the Office" he ordered.
The man slipped in his clutch. They
were In the act of gliding off when
there was tremendous report. They
stopped short. The man jumped down
and looked at the back tire.
Blowout" he remarked laconically.
Quest frowned.
"How long will it take?''
-Four minutes" the man replied.
I've got another wheel ready. That's
the queerest blowout Is ever saw.
though"
Suddenly Quests expression changed.
His hand stole into his hip pocket.
"Tom," he explained, that wasn't a
blowout at all. Look here!"
He pointed to the small level hole.
Almost at once he stood back and the
sunshine flashed upon the revolver
clutched in his right hand
THAT was a bullet" he continued.
Someone fired at that tire. Tom,
there's trouble about"
The man looked nervously around.
That's a rife bullet, sure" he NUT
tered.
Get on the wheel as quick as you
can" Quest directed. Here, I'll give
you a hand"
He stopped down to unfasten the
straps which fastened the spare wheel
1t was one Of his rare lapses, realized
moment too late. Almost in his ears
came the hoarse cry:
Hands up, guvnor! Hands up this
second or I'll blow you to hell"
Quest glanced over his shoulder and
raised a little above the level of the
road. A very ugly little revolver was
pointed directly at Quests heart.
.My mates got you covered on the
other side of the road, too. Hands up,
both of you, or We'll make a quick Job
of it."
Quest shrugged his shoulders, threw
his revolver into the road and obeyed.
AS he did SO, the other man stole out
from behind bush and sprang for
the chauffeur; who under cover of the
car was stealing off. There was a
brief struggle, then the dull thud of
the railway mans rifle falling on the
chauffeur's head. He rolled over and
lay in the road.

Red Gallagher ordered. "You don't
want anyone who comes by to see.
Now lend me a hand with this chap"
what do you propose to do with
me?" Quest asked.
You'll know soon enough" Red Gal
lagher answered. "A matter Of five
minutes talk, to start with. You see
that handcar house?"
Perfectly WE'LL" Quest assented
my eyesight is quite normal"
Get there then. I'm yard behind
you and my revolver's pointing for
the middle of your back"
Quest sprang lightly down from the
road, crossed the few intervening
yards and stepped into the handcar
house.
Gallagher and his mate followed
close behind. Quest paused on the
threshold.
Its filthy dirty hole," he re-
marked. Cant we have our little
chat out here? Is it money you
want?"
Gallagher glanced around. Then
with an ugly push of the shoulder he
sent Quest ree1ing into the shed. His
great form blocked up the doorway.
NO." he cried fiercely, cts not
money I want this time. Quest, you
brute, you dirty bloodhound! You
sent me to the pen for five years-you

 to maintain the Detention home in as good condition as it is possible for us to
 do. We want to make it self supporting
 and this we think is possible, since there
 are many kinds of work that the women
 there can do which is quite remunerative For instance, they are to be given the contract for making the skirts for MT. Gafford's street convicts, and besides that, there are several other things which are in view
 Recently I had the pleasure of,appear- ing before the Rotary club Miss Barnett said, and I presented our work before that splendid body of men, and I have never seen more enthusiastic or more generous or a more sympathetic body in
 all my life. They assured us of their hearty support and told us that anything they could do for the Girls Social Service club they would gladly do. which encour- aged us greatly. I have never seen any thing like the generosity and kindness ot Birmingham people, anyway, when il comes to that. Practically every thing we have has been donated at the Detention home: the house, the lights, and the tele- phones as well as many little incidentals too numerous to mention. We now have
