Anxious to 90 snytning which might
tend to clear up the harassing doubts
preying upon her mind, Margery will
lingly acquiesced In this plan. A lit
tie later the speedy, gray roadster
containing the determined police cap
tain and the troubled-faced girl..drew
up just around the bend of the road
beyond the Kicks homestead, where
David Manley had taken up his abode
since his abrupt departure from the
manor house of his former employer
Suddenly Margery felt her heart
quicken as she saw a familiar figure
with dejectedly dropping shoulders
cutting across the fields In the direc
ton of Seven Oaks Hill. The keen
eyed officer caught sight Of his quarry
Iat almost the same moment.
There's our man now" he said
quickly, "and it's up to us to keeI
him In sight every minute"
Stealthily the slender girl and the
burly captain, slipping from cover to
cover, Swallowed the distracted Man
ley, who was apparently too occupied
with his thoughts to be at all on his
guard. He finally reached the sum-
NIT Of the hill and made straight for
the lone bowlder, where on q previous
occasion the Laughing Mask had mys-
teriOusly eluded the holly pursuing
police captain. His trailers lodged
into nearby thicket and breathless-
ly waited the outcome of this strange
procedure.
Nor had they long to wait. A few
tense moments elapsed after David
Manley disappeared from view behind
the bOwlder and then another figure
emerged from In back Of that stone
concealment. The features of the new
conner were shrouded by yellow and
grotesquely laughing mask.

overs Of the Laughing Mask saw him

Of the gunrodm and busted himself

notepaper.
"This ought to do the trick II any

after few moments of laborious eff

I've signed Legar's name to this here

his life"
When the stocky captain Of police
having planted" his forged decoy In
conspicuous spot near the lone
bowlder, returned to the waiting
girl in the low-slung car, his face
was Enthusiastically stamped with self
satisfaction.
The jubilant police officer might
have lost some of his confidence in
the success of his plan had he known
that from behind a sheltering thicket
two pairs of evil eyes had watched
his every movement from the time
the gray car had stopped by the road
side. Now that the coast was clear
there emerged from that thicket a
man with wolfish, scar-marked face,
who stood waiting while his blond
lieutenant retrieved the white slip of
paper intended to entrap the Laugh
ing Mask. But scarcely had these

the embrace Of his companion and
stood gazing in startled surprise In
the direction from which it came. At
catapulting through the hedge and
bore down upon the Laughing Mask
like n human cannon ball. The exas-
perated police captain, realizing he
could no longer hope to take his enc
my by surprise, had staked everything
on this sudden rush. But the nimble-
footed fugitive was off like Splinter
trying to beat record, and by the
time he reached the road he had
gained wide leap over his numbering
pursuer, who shortly gave up the
chase and slowly retraced his steps,
blowing like winded truck horse.
"This is the second time you've har-
bored that criminal" he barked at the
proudly erect young woman who stood
facing Margery Golden, "an' as an Of
ficer of the law l give you warning
it will be worse for you If you don't
tell us where he keeps himself under
cover"
II shall tell you nothing" answered
the openly defiant girl, your bully
ing threats do not brighten me In the
least, and I shall see that your in
sulting conduct is reported to the
proper authorities"
With this parting shot the unruf-
fed girl deliberately turned her back
on the raging police captain and, with
quiet dignity, made her way toward
the white-pillared mansion. Nothing
remained for that utterly routed arm
of the law but to withdraw from the
field of this disastrous verbal battle
with the best grace he could muster,
but already, In his somewhat limited
range of mental activity, he had de-
vised a new scheme for trapping the
elusive masquerader, whose immedl.
ate capture he was more grimly de-
termined upon than ever.

chance to miss. I've got some heav-
Ter scores than his to settle, and right
now Is the time to do It,"
With cold chill of apprehension
the Laughing Mask remembered he
had no method Of reaching the dis
tant quarry except by foot, and long
before he could hope to reach his
destination Legar would have had
ample time to carry out his fiendish
purpose. But anything was better
than this maddening inaction, and
although realizing the futility of his
course he raced frantically along the
road through the dust clouds raised
by the black automobile, fast disap-
pearing In the distance.

peered over the edge of the perpen-

of stone had been sheared away by
powerful explosives, an evil smile of
triumph distorted his scar-furrowed
face. For just beneath him were the
figures Of the portly police captain and
two Of his men crouching behind a
ponderous upright slab of granite.
