 heard in the hallway and Rhineland- e. dashed into the room. In the
 twinkling of an eye the aspect Of /. everything changed. In Rhinelander,

 safe deposit vault gasped. He wait ] ed just minute, and in an suspicious iuii in the conversation between | Rhinelander and Helen. Spike stand ! ing at attention, the watchman pushed
 into the group to ask whether he had
 made mistake.
 No mistake at all" said Rhineland-
 CT heartily and reassuringly, and to
 the watckman's great relief. You did 1 exactly right. You didn't know these | people. They had no business in

 The sergeant scratched his head.
 This is the qUeerest mix-up ever

 Within his own room the chief had knotted problem. He had been try ing in every way to extract some dam- aging admission rum Ward and Adams, but unable to do so. had re- | iuctantly dismissed the pair, satisfied that if justice had her due the two
 would be behind the bars.
 Just outside the police station, Helen and Rhinelander-Spi lis- tening-Were eonferring as to what
 should be dcne in the awkward emer- gency facing them. How could they now save their property from Seagrue's eager clutckes?f They moved away
 together slowly. just as Ward and Adams, having got the real handbag from the sergeant, walked out of the station. The two men encountered the
 halting and perplexed trio. Rhine lander's rowing eye fell on the bag as
 Ward passed him. He cried out and

 Seagrue's men recognized their vic tim. Away they dashed, Helen and the two men after them at top speed. Across a city street a block away the hind end of long freight train was rapidly pulling. Ward and Adams headed for it.
 Farther down the line. at a Santa Fe crossing. Tidewater passenger train had slowed. and for this Helen, .RhiRelander and Spike made. But the excitement and speed were telling on Rhinelander. who was not in the class and training of his companions. He weakened Spike stopped to help him along. In that brief interval Helen made the side of a coach as the Tidewater passenger train picked | up speed. Her companions could not overtake her. but RhineIander hastily chartered a passing automobile, and away he went with Spike after the l two trains. It was a triangular race, l but the passenger train, on parallel ! track, gained rapidly on the freight.
 Helen had already climbed to the l coach roof. and. with both trains run :, ming. she watched the gap lessening l between the passenger and the [ freight that bore the two thieves on |, the adjoining track. As she found her | own train rapidly overhauling the oth- CT. she made up her mind what to | do. The moment her coach pulled I abreast of the last box car in the long | drag she jumped from the top of the | coach to the top of the freight car. | landed safely. regained her feet, and [ looked over the side of the train for the men she was after.
 Within the box car where they had i taken refuge Ward and Adams were | trying to open Rhinelander's bag. They had succeeded in negotiating the lock when. to their consternation. 1 Helen. through the open sidedoor, swung down and in on them from f the roof. me thieves jumped to { their feet But before Adams was up. | Helen had knocked him over again. and as Ward jumped at her. she man. aged to shoot out her foot at the nand- bag.
