| WILL HAVE OWN EXCHANGE
Equity Denied Membership in Live
Stock Body.


South st. Paul, Sept 13.-Directors
of the South St. Paul Live Stock ex-
change refused to admit the live stock
branch of the Equity Cooperative ex-
change to membership.
The reason given was that the rules
of the South st. Paul exchange pro-
hibit rebating, and according to the
ruling of the directors, a division of
the profits of commission house
among the shippers in proportion to
the amount of stock shipped is equiva-
lent to rebating.
The members of the Equity execu-
tive committee held, on the other
hand, that they could not abandon the
cooperative plan.
The result will be that the Equity
exchange will establish an independ-
ent commission house in South St.

throne. Tho painting-it is spit
ting steel at usi"
Legar, however, was no longer in
need of that warning. Standing to
one side OF the mantel, close beside
the wall, he attacked the huge can
vas with his fire-tongs, beating in the
center of the picture at the same time
that Peggy O'Mara, reaiizing that
she was no longer being held a pris-
oner, caught up a teakwood tabou-
ret and with II precipitated her
self on the preoccupied Legar
He ignored that flank attack, how
ever, for the Iron Claw suddenly found
himself confronted by figure of more
importance than either the spindle
legged girl or a painted gunman.
Out from behind that tattered can
vas had emerged a man wearing q
yellow mask, tossing to one side a
slender blowpipe as he came. Before
he could regain his feet after that hur-
ried leap from the mantol shelf, Legar
himself had dropped the fire tongs and
whipped a revolver from his pocket.
This he leveled directly at the body
OF the Laughing Mask. But before
he could pull the trigger, Peggys
tabouret struck against his out
stretched arm, knocking the weapon
up in the air.
By this time the Laughing Mask
was up on his feet, and face to face
with his enemy. Before the revolver
could again be brought into play the
two had clenched. Then the Iron Claw
went down before a clean-cut blow
from his opponent. He recovered him
self sufficiently, however, to roll to
where his fallen revolver lay. But
before he could level that frearm at
his adversary the Laughing Mask, re-
membering that even the officers of
the law were no longer his friends,
dived out through the small door at
the rear of the studio and disappeared
from sight, for already the sound of
OMara and his rescuing party could
be heard as they swarmed up the
stairs
The Iron Claw himself heard those
sounds, drew himself together and

from the door and saw Legar himself
standing before her.
She stood there, white Tipped, star
ing from one evil face to the other as
Legar's companions closed in about
her.
You're a fine bunch o. cradle
snatchers!" she finally and wrathfully
burst out at them, with the ultimate
and reckless anger of desperation in
her eyes. You're a grand army o
heroes, you are, to come five strong
agin' q girl like mel"
stop that BRAT" commanded the
irate Legar. And there was a general
movement in the direction of the blaz-
ing-eyed girl.
There was one man in that group,
however, who did not join in that
movement. The reason for this lay
in the fact that at that moment he
happened to be looking up at the paint
ing of THE Vigilante."
He was about to reach for heavy
easel-peg, TO fling at the canvas, when
he suddenly Strengthened up, clapped
hand to his shoulder, and turned
about. There was look of mingled
wonder and incredulity on his face
Then he slowly drew from the fieshy
part OF his upper arm small steel
dart, little bigger than a knitting
needle
The next moment a second man,
moving across the room to catch I'D
curtain cord with which to tie the
captured girl. felt sudden sting in
his hip, stopped abruptly and point
ed with a shout of anger toward the
canvas above the mantel.
Still another of Legar's followers,
not realizing the meaning Of that cry,
stepped forward and stared at the
painting. Out OF the barrel-end OF the
painted rife, as he did so, shot still
another dart which buried itself in his
neck.
9TH darts!" he mumbled, as thick
ly as drunken man might. 'Th'
darts re druggedl"
But even before those mumbled
words were spoken the swarthy-
skinned Mauki, trying to hold the still
struggling Peggy o'Mara down on a
divan, felt a sharp pain above his
shoulderblade, turned about, and saw
Legar run across the room and catch
up the heavy brass fire tongs from be-
side the mantel end.
THE paintingl" squeaked Mauki,
staggering out against the model

ing as a costume model. Legar anu
two of his followers, in the meantime,
entered Aimick's studio on the pre-
tense of. being a fire marshars inspec-
tor caught the artist off his guard,
and carried him bound and gagged and
helpless To one OF the small back
rooms OF the studio building.
Peggy herself, before starting out
in answer to that summons, was still
somewhat uneasy in mind over recent
events. So she left word with her
father TO call for her not later than
eleven o'clock.
But more than Dan O'Mara called
for his daughter that night, for ten
minutes after her departure from the
cottage Margery Golden's limousine
drew up at the door. Margery's eyes
widened when O'Mara explained the
reason OF his daughters absence from
home.
"But an artist like Frank Aimick
would never be able 10 work at night, -
she argued, with growing alarm. HE
must have daylight for working in
color"
Dan O'Mara turned to the table at
his side.
Here's his message, plain as day,
written in his own handwritin'," was
the puzzled workman's only explana-
ton.
Margery took the message in her
hand and studied it. Then her color
faded little.
THAT is not Frank Aimick's writ
ing" she suddenly announced
1--WE must get TO that studio as fast
as my car can carry us.
Peggy O'Mara, in the meantime,
was being confronted by more than
one surprise. The first came with her
arrival at the Aimick studio, when
the stranger who opened the door in
response to her knock informed her
that the artist was out, but would re-
turn in a minute or two. The sec
ond came with the quiet movement
of yet another man who sidled up TO
the studio door and promptly locked
and barred it, But the greatest sur.
prise OF all awaited her as she turned
The Yale expositor. (Yale, St. Clair County, Mich.) 1894-current, 1916-11-30

stared helplessly about the disman-
tied studio. Then the instinct of self
preservation reasserted itself. He ran
to the back of the room, dived into a
kitchenette, found a small door in it's
wall, swung it open, discovered
dumb-waiter shaft in front OF him, and
escaped to the street.
The Corridors Of Dread.
Margery Golden, as she sat in the
taxicab which carried her homeward,
was comforted by the thought that she
had at least saved the life of a factory
girl to whom she stood indebted for
her own escape from death. The
further thought that she had sent Dan
O'Mara and his exhausted daughter
safely home in her own luxurious
limousine even reconciled her to the
somewhat stuffy-aired public convey
ance in which she found herself. She
blinked meditatively out at the back
of the heavy faced driver so sullenly
and yet so adroitly plotting her
through the tangle of traffic. Then the
abstraction suddenly went from her
eyes and the listlessness from her
pose. For, from the back window of
the red-wheeled taxicab Immediately
in front of her she caught sight of a
peering face. And it took no second
glance to tell her that it was the
deep-seared face of the Iron Claw him
SELF
The next moment Margery was
shouting to her sullen-faced driver.
Follow that red-wheeled taxi" she
told him, pointing down the side
street. Keep within sight OF it, what
ever happens!"
Soon they had left the city well be-
hind them and were in that twilight
zone which is neither quite rural nor
quite urban. But Margery. the mo-
ment she saw the red-wheeled taxicab
come to a stop, commanded her driver
to draw in under the shadow OF a
dense row of catalpa trees. There,
from the running board of her car,
she beheld Legar step out on the road,
pay his chauffeur, and stand looking
after the departing taxicab until Il dis
appeared from sight. Then he turned
about, pushed his way in through
tangle of shrubbery, and left the lone
ly roadside as empty as a desert trail.
Then the resolute browed young wo-
man turned TO her chauffeur.
