Norton had flown many times in the
last four years. At the moment he
called out to Florence to jump he
dropped to the water with all the skill
of an old timer and took her aboard.
And he could not use line of this
exploit for his paper!
Jones heard the bell. 1t was the
agent from the Black Hundred. He
smiled jauntily.

aviator cal1ousIy turned away toward
the young woman with whom he had
been conversing prior to Norton's ap-
proach. The two walked a dozen yards
away.
Norton had not served twelve years
as metropolitan newspaper man for
nothing. He approached the mechan-
les who were puttering about the
machine.
How about twenty apiece?" he
began.
For what?" the men asked.
For sending that paddle around a
few times"
Get into that seat, but don't touch
any Of those levers" one of them
warned. Twenty is twenty, Jack, and
the boss is a sorehead today anyhow.
Give her shove for the fun of it."
1t was a dumfounded aviator who
saw his hydroplane skim the water
and a moment later sail into the air.

not discern what it was. AS she
watched it it grew and grew. 1t final
ly emerged from the illusion of a gil
gantic bird into the actuality of an
everyday hydroplane. Her heart gave
a great bound. This flying machine
was coming directly toward the
launch; it did not deviate a hairs
breadth from the line. Fortunately
the men were looking toward the huge
freighter a quarter Of mile farther
on, and from their talk it was'evident
that that freighter was to be her pris-
on-bound for where? Nearer and
nearer came the hydroplane. Was it
for her?
1t was impossible for the men not
to take notice of the barking of the
engines at last.
"The things headed for us!"
Vroon stared under his palm. It
was not credible that pursuit had
taken place so quickly. To test yonder
man-bird he abruptly changed the
course of the launch. The hydroplane
veered it's course to suit.
Florence heard her name called
family. One Of the men drew his
revolver, but Vroon knocked it out
of his hand.
There's the police boat, you fool"
Jump" voice called to Florence.
She flung herself into the water
without the slightest hesitation.
All this came about something after
this fashion. When Norton arrived at
the foot of Corey street a boatman
informed him that young woman of
his description had gotten into a fast
motor boat and had gone down the
river.
WAS there any struggled"
Struggle? None that 1 could see.

Have you launch?"
Eyes, but the other boat has half
an hours start, and I'd never catch
her in a thousand years. But there's
a hydroplane little above here. You
might interest the Teller that runs it."
"Thanks!"
But the aviator would not listen.
"a life may hang in the balance,
mani" expostulated Norton, longing to
pommel the stubborn man.
What proof have l of that?"
Norton showed his card and badge.

little newspaper stunt in which l am

Hello! You? Where have you
been? What has happened?"
who is it?" asked Florence, step
ping forward.
Jones held up a warning hand, and
Florence paused.
Yes, yes; hear perfectly. o.!

him by the arm.

turned away from the telephone.
"Why?"
You said Sir"
Jones' eyes widened. Il did?"
Yes, and it's the first time l ever

"Ah, Miss Florence" and Jones

that you have made me recall this

Florence began to cry softly.

butler, torn between the desire to

laid down for himself. "It is very

Jones really was. The strain had been
terrific for weeks.
"The money first. We don't lie any

have to trust US. We have no use
for the girl once we get the cash."
"And you'll never touch penny of

from the doorway.

porter and the girl. He did not stop
to ask questions, but bolted He never

Jones. '"And if I could have put my

'But they told me he was dying!"
Jones shrugged.

was deeper menace than he cared
TO face. But he went about his af-
fairs as usual giving no hint to any
one of the mental turmoil which had
possession of him.
1t is needless to state Norton did
not scoop his rivals on the counter
felt story. But he set to work explor-
ing the cellar of the Quilted building,
and in one corner he found a battered
die. He turned this over to the secret
service men. There was one man he
wanted to find-Vroon. This man,
could he find him, should be made to
lead him, Norton, to the new strong
hold. He saw the futility of trying to
trap Braine by shadowing him. He
desired Braine to believe that his es-
cape from the freighter had been a
bit of wild luck and not a precon-
ceived plan. Braine was out of reach
for the present, so he began the search
for the man Vroon. He haunted the
water front saloons for a week with
out success.
He did not know that it was the
policy of the Black Hundred to lay low
for a month after raid Of such a
serious character. So the Hargreave
menage had thirty days Of peace;
always watched, however For Braine
never relaxed his viligance in that
part of the game. He did not care to
lose sight Of Jones, who he was posi-
tive was ready for fight if the slight
est opportunity offered itself.
Norton went back to the primrose
paths of love; and sometimes he would
forget all about such a thing as the
Black Hundred. So the summer days
went by, with the lilacs and the roses
empowering the Hargreave home. But
Norton took note of the fact that
Florence was no longer the light
hearted schoolgirl he had first met.
Her trials had made serious woman
OF her, and perhaps this phase was all
the more enchanting to him, who had
his serious side also. Her young mind
was like an Italian garden, always
opening new vistas for his admiring
gaze.
He went about his work the same as
OF old, interviewing, playing detective,
fattening his pay envelope by specials

10 the Sunday edition and some OF the
lighter magazines. Sometimes he had
vague dreams Of writing a play, a
novel, and making tremendous for
tune like that chap Manders, who only
a few years ago had been his desk
mate. He really began the first chap
ter Of a novel; but that has nothing
to do with this history.
All ready, then. The chess are once
more on the board, and it Is the move
of the Black Hundred.
The day was rather cloudy. Jones
viewed the sky YEARLY. He could
hear Florence playing rather a cheer
less nocturne by Chopin. Fourteen
weeks ago this warfare had begun, and
all he had accomplished, he and those
with him, was the death or incarcera-
ton of few inconsequent members Of
the Black Hundred. Always they struck
and always he had to ward off. He
had always been on the defensive;
and a defensive fighter may last a
long while, but he seldom wins; and
the butler knew that they must win
or go down in bitter defeat. There
was no half way route to the end /;
there could be no draw. 1t all reminded
him of thunderbots; one man knew
where they were going to strike.
The telephone rang; at the same mo-
ment Florence left the piana She stopped
at the threshold.

CHAPTER XIV.
Another Trap Set.

Another Trap Set.
II the truth is to be told, Jones was
AS deeply chagrined over the outcome
OF the counterfeit deal as was Braine.
They had both failed signally to reach
the goal sought. But this time the or
ganiZation had broken even with Jones,
and this fact disturbed the butler. 1t
might signify that the turning point
had been reached, and that in the fu-
ture the good luck might swing over to
the side of the Black Hundred. Jones'
redoubled his cautions, reiterated his
warnings, and slept less than ever.
Indeed, as he went over the ground
he conceded point to the Black Hun
dred. He would no longer be able
to keep tab on the organization They
had deserted their former quarters
absolutely. The agent of whom they
had leased the building knew nothing
except that he would have to repair
the place. The rent had been paid a
year in advance, as it had been these
last eight years. He had dealt through
an attorney who knew no more of his
clients than the agent So it will be
seen that Jones had in reality received
a check.
More than all this, it would give his
enemies renewed confidence; and this

home. Susan was becoming acclimate0
to this strange, exciting existence.
Norton arrived in due time, and
he and Jones were mapping out plan
when Susan's message came.
Good grill" said Jones. "She's
learning. Can you handle this alone,
Norton? They want me out of the
house again, for 1 believe they were
after me as we'll as Florence. Half
an hour gone!"
Trust mel" cried Norton.
And he ran out to his auto It was
wild ride. Several policemen shouted
after him, but he went on unmindful
They could take his license number
a hundred times for all he cared. So
they had got her? They could wait
til their enemy's vigilance Stacked
and then would strike? But Susan!
The next time he saw Susan he was
going to take her in his arms and kiss
her. It might be new sensation to
kiss Susan always so prim and offish.
Corey street-that had been her direc-
ton. They had put Florence in a.
motor boat at the foot of Corey street.
He was perhaps half an hour behind
Florence never opened her lips. She
stared ahead proudly. She would
show these scoundrels that she was
her fathers daughter. They piled
her with questions, but she pretended
not to hear.
well, pretty bird, we'll make you
speak when the time comes. We've
got you this trip where we want you.
There won't be any jumping over
board this session, believe me. We've
wasted enough time. We've got you
and we're going to keep you"
Let her be-" said Vroon morosely.
We'll put all the questions we wish
when we're at our destination" And
he nodded significantly toward the
ships riding at anchor.
Florence felt her heart sink in spite
of her abundant courage. Were they
going to take her to sea again? She
had acquired a horror of the sea, so
big, so terrible, so strong She had
had an experience with it's sullen
power. They had gone about four
miles down when she looked back
longingly toward shore. Something
white seemed to be spinning over the
water far behind. At first she could

Ivor Williams, one Of the sue

Mountain section, arrived this
week from Malheur county where
he had fed has flocks during the
winter. The sheep are being
trailed to the summer range in
this county. Mr.. Williams states
he lost but few on account of
rabies and he is of the impress
sion the disease is not so preva-
lent as ii was. He found sever
al dead coyotes when coming in
by way of Barren Valley and
seems to think the rabies has
caused-a large number Of them

states as a matter Of news that
the people of the Barren Valley
and Jordan Valley sections were
now viewing the country with the
idea Of a good road into this valley
for lumber and other such mat
erials as they feel they can get a
good class of lumber from the
mills in this territory and haul il
over cheaper than having it
shipped in from the railroad.
