"You won't find anything. of course"
the officer remarked. But just for
satisfaction let's have look-see and a
chin-chin with Sing Wah."
They entered the shop just as Chi
nese was closing q panel door after
Drake, who had come to make his
promised attempt to win Ruth's conf
dence. Sing Wah was nowhere to be
seen.
After some futile parley with the
Chinese. whose ignorance was com
plete in every detail, the two officers
agreed that they were wasting time.
"Old Sings the boy TO see." said
the house detective. Lets wait
awhile"
Now, Sing Wah had pondered the
affair during the night, and the more
he thought over having n lovely white
girl in the cylindrical room the less
lie liked it. 1t was deadly dangerous.
Courts might be lenient with the SNUG
gler and the go-between. Sing Wah
knew that If even suspicion got
abroad that young white woman was
imprisoned in his quarters ravening
mob would tear his place stick from
stone and hang him without trial. He
was determined to get the girl away
Immediately. SO he was unfeignedly
glad to see Drake.
Drake attempted to explain what
Wilkerson wanted but the Chinese cut
him short.
Harry is insane" he said quietly.
"He is mad over that woman. l have
done all can. You must get her out
of here"
But how" demanded Drake. "She
doesn't know me very well, and she'll
scream her head off, and I'll be arrest
ed, and Wen all be in muss."
Sing Wah nodded thoughtfully.
Then he looked up and listened to the
low words of one of his clerks. Dis
missing him with a single grunt, he
turned to Drake.
There's not much time" he said
softly. "They are on the trail al
ready"
who"
"The police" He motioned Drake to
chair in the little alcove, where they
stood and went on: "Stay here a mo-
ment. | viii see for myself" He
pulled lever. and the room swung
around till the door was opposite him.
With long. slender fingers he slipped
back the panel and vanished.
Ruth lay on couch, open eyed and
sThite faced. Beside her a richly dress
ed Chinese woman crouched. whisper

ing soothlngly. At sight of Sing Ruth
Gallon suddenly sat upright In silent
horror.
Il beg your pardon, MISS" Sing said
in his silkiest English. 81 have come
TO take you back to your friends out
side"
The girl shrank back. mo, no. moi"
she moaned. '"rhey are not my
friends"
Surely Harry Wilkerson"- Sing
suggested craftily, to see how the land
lay.
"Wilkerson" she whispered. rs he
was he here?'
Her tone conveyed all that he wished
to know. He motioned to the woman
to leave and when she was gone pulled
cord, which let down a light rope
ladder.
II am sorry, madam" he said quiet
~, ''but l shall have to ask you to
climb up this. 1t is the only safe way
lut" lie laid one hand gently on her
arm.
Now, Ruth was California bred. with
all fhe prejudices for and against the
Chinaman. She screamed. At that In
slant there was crash of shattered
door in the distance and the sound of
men talking in excited tones.
You must come" said Sing Wah.
'I will take you TO place of safety.
All ] ask of you is to follow me and
he silent"
His earnestness was unmistakable,
md Ruth yielded. A moment later
they both stood on a small landing
place above the cylindrical room. Sing
Wah carefully drew up the ladder and
coiled it again on the wooden trigger
that had released it. Then he led the

"You must come" said Sing Wah.
under low arches till she felt a sudden
cool, salt breath on her face. AT her
feet she saw the glimmer of water and
boat riding to long painter. Quick
ly and silently Sing Wah drew the lit
tie craft alongside and motioned to her
to get in.
By this time the tumult had died
down to a mere muttering of shots
with an occasional yell, muffled by
walls and the distance She stared
fearfully about her, at the great arches
of dripping brick overhead. at the little
landing under foot, at the dark vista
of the tunnel through which the water
streamed in a swishing tide. She drew
back and let her voice out in one long,
forlorn scream, the pent up agony of
many hours, her final call for help
against the dark powers that had seiz-
ed upon her.
With swift strength Sing Wah reach
ed out his sinewy arms, raised her up
and seated her in the stern of the boat.
4 moment later he had cast off the
painter and shipped the oars. The boat
into the murk.
After some talk between the officers
John Dorr was informed that If he
liked they would enter Sing. Wah's
and make a thorough search.
tba
or anybody" said one of the police
men, but it never does any harm to
take look-see through Sing Wah's.
and the lieutenant is coming down
now to take charge"
A moment later that officer arrived.
and John Dorr made his tale as con-
vincing as possible. The lieutenant
seemed dubious.
1T isn't like the old rascal to run
his head into danger that way" he in
sisted. 81 think you are on the wrong
trail. Who did you say was the man
who did all thls?"
"Wilkerson--Harry Wilkerson," John
answered bitterly.
"Wilkerson?' repeated the lieutenant.
THAT puts another color on the mat
ter. Wilkerson and Sing Wah used to
be pals. This'lI bear looking into.
Come on. men,"
With wonderful quickness the officer
disposed his men SO that every known
exit was guarded. Then he motloned
to John to follow him and went boldly
up to the shop door and entered.
Followed again a futile parley with
language but his own. The lie;.ten-
ants quick ear caught sound of
something moving directly behind the
impassive clerk. Brushing him aside.
he smashed in the door in the parti-
ton and strode into the hallway be-
yond. John Dorr was close at his
heels.
The next few moments were to live
long in Johns memory as the strang.
est of his life.
"Be carefulr' warned the officer.
THE rascals may start shooting"
Even as he spoke there was a ruddy
flash down the dark alleyway. and
Dorr staggered back.
"Only my arm" he muttered.
Come on! Don't give 'em another
chance Mt us here. Rush 'em"
An instant later they stood in the
cylindrical room. John stared about
him, but the lieutenant merely remark
ed, This room was built merely for
tourists consumption. Let me see that
