Jim made a dash for the rear door,

with the key, Braine and his COM

porter and overpowered him.
"Ah, my friend Braine!" he said.
"My friend Norton!" jeered the vic
tor.
"And what do you want; some

"A paper, my friend, little secret

We promise to give you something in

head.

with him"
The cigarette glowed. Jim smoked
hurriedly.
Through every pocket they went.
The contents of his wallet lay scat
tered at his feet; his watch dangled
from the chain. The cigarette grew
shorter and shorter. Suddenly one Of
the men stretched out a hand and
whisked the cigarette from Jim's lips.
He threw it to the floor and stamped
out the coal.

ing out the scrap Of burnt paper to-
wards Braine.
The words Dear Hargreave" were
all that remained of the message. With
snarl of rage Braine whipped out his
revolver.
Il will give you one minute to tell
me what that paper contained"
"And after that minute is up?"
"A bullet in your stomach"
Quick as a flash Jim's hand shot
out, caught the loosely held revolver,
gave it wrench, and brought it down
savagely upon Braine's head. Then
he reversed it and backed toward the
front entrance.

which did not in any way refer to
cooking. Then Jones and the reporter
left the house, each quite aware that
they were being followed. Near the
Blank hotel they separated in order
to confuse the stalker. He might dodD

1t was evident that this time he had

troubled him none at all. But that
mysterious message he meant to have;
lit might be a life and death affair, it
might be clue to the treasure, or
the whereabouts of Hargreave.
Thus, while only one man followed
Jones, several kept far eye on Jim.
Jones scrubbed his name on a blank
card and had it taken to the Russians
room. The page eyed that card curl
ously. It was different from anything
he had ever seen before. In one cor

which resembled a cross between He
