Norton suddenly flung off Braine and

about. Even then it was only by the
barest luck in the world that Norton
managed to catch the gunwale. The
rest of it was simple. When they
finally reached haven, Florence, odd.

had left tethered nine miles from the
stables. She laughed Historically.

they sat there, chatting inanities, all
the while each mind busy with deeper
concerns.
When the man in search Of Flor

Eyes. What is wanted?" she asked.
The man took a letter from his
pocket and handed it to Olga, saying:
Give this to your father. He knows
how to read it,
Before she could reply the man had
turned and was hurrying away.
Olga opened the note, her heart
beating furiously. 1t was utterly
blank. At first she thought it was a
hoax. Then she happened to remem-
Der that there was such a thing as in
visible ink. At last! Hargreave was
alive; this letter settled all doubt in
her mind on this question. Alive!
And not only that, but the girl and
Jones were evidently in communica-
ton with him. She summoned q
waiter, made secret sign, and he
bowed and approached She slipped
the letter into his hand and whis-
pered: SHOW that at the cave to-

strolled away nonchalantly.
Braine was in Boston over night,
otherwise the countess would have
him. She remained for perhaps q
quarter of an hour longer and then left
the garden. She would have taken the
letter to her own apartment but for
the fact that the chemicals needed
were hidden in the cave.
Now it happened that Florence went
out for her early ride the next morn
ing, and crossing field she saw q
man with a bundle under his arm.
The sun struck his profile and limned
it plainly, and Florence uttered low
cry. The man had not observed her.
So, very quietly, she slipped from the
horse, tethered it to tree, and started
after the man to learn what he was
doing so far from the city She would
never forget that face. She had seen
it that dreadful night when the note
bad lured her into the hands of her
enemies. The face belonged to the
man who had impersonated her father.
It occurred to her that she might
just as well do little detective work
on her own hook. She had passed
through so many terrifying episodes
that she was beginning to crave for
the excitement, strange as this may
seem. Like gambler who has once
played for high stakes, she no longer
found pleasure in thimbles and needles
and pins. She followed the man with
no little skill and at length saw him

WILL FIGHT INJUNCTION.
zionest Not Pleased With Order of
Court Permitting Smoking.

Judge Claire G. Edwards in the cir
cult court at Waukegan Friday morning
granted an injunction against the may
or, chief of police and other officials of
Zion from interfering in any way with
the users of tobacco there and as a re-
suit of this ruling it is expected that
the great Zion smoke war will again
find its way into the supreme court.
The fight which has been carried on
by Attorney r. F. Fowler on behalf of
the Zion smokers has been hard one.
Attorney Barnes, acting for the Voliva
interests, brought all the authorities at
his command before the court in an eff
fort to hold up the Zion stand in the
matter.
Attorney Fowler looks upon the
granting of the injunction as direct
support of his contention from the first
that the ruling of the supreme court
something over a year ago when they
declared similar ordinance unconsti-
tutional, affected the present ordinance
which was passed directly after the SUI
preme courts decision was handed
down.
It is the intention of the Zion offic-
ials to fight the injunction.
