the knots of the mysterious stranger

to the beams of their own sail loft.

had not one Scupulo visited Coney
Island in his dilapidated car of an
cient vintage. and having there con-
ferred with a lush dip In hiding from
the fiatties of Manhattan, decided to
circle homeward by way OF Oyster
Joe's, In the hope OF that refreshment
which had more than once cheered
him on his dusty Journeys.
Instead OF finding refreshment. how
ever. he unearthed two ferocious-eyed
and dry-throated captives. who, when
released. danced and gesticulated in
coherently about their habitation.
Then. when speech had returned to
them the visit of the mysterious
stranger was explained and the neces-
sity of getting in touch with Legar
made plain.
three men and q car naively missing
on one cylinder went coughing inland
along the narrow road threading
those uncounted acres of sea marsh.
They were within fifty PAGES of a
crossroads landmark known as Chin
ney-Pot Corner when a below not un-
like that of branded range steer
burst from the indignant throat of Old
Eli. For that worthy had the unique
experience of beholding not only his
own purloined team and wagon, but
a disconcertingly lifelike replica of
himself driving 1t. Scupulo. with the
genius of a true general. arrested the
progress of that wagon by promptly
stopping his car directly in its track.
This collision in no way improved the
vehicle of ancient vintage: but sterner
issues were at hand. A moment later
the belligerent trio from the broken
car were trimphantly charging for
Margory Golden and her guardian.
That guardian, fully realizing the
meaning OF the charge, tossed his
reins to the frightened girl and com
manded her to drive for all she was
worth. Then he himself prepared for
invaders.
1t was to the first conner thai he
directed his main attention. for Scupu-
10. he noticed, already held knife in
his swarthy hand. One well-placed
kick on the clenching knuckles. how
ever. sent that glimmering icicle OF
steel circling Off into the road-dust.
and an equally well-placed blow on the
it.
In the meantime, however. both Oys-
ter Joe and Old Eli had gained the
wagon platform. The former found
himself suddenly clenched by the
waist and lifted clear of the wagon.
Why he should so quickly and so vio-
lently come into collision with the
swaying figure of Oyster Joe, like an
alley ball hitting a nine-pin, was a
matter which for all time remained a
mystery to him. But over the side OF
the laundering wagon the two figures
suddenly toppled, rolling along the
dust with limbs interlaced and claw
ing hands unreasonably clenched in
each others hair. And before they re-
gained either their feet or their men
tai faculties, the wagon itself was well
on its way.
Yet the driver OF that wagon knew
that his escape was only a temporary
one.

turned her face to the light. He peered
at 1t hungrily, from half-closed eyes,
"Legar." he called out to that
worthy, who had remained at the door
to warn his stickup to admit nobody
but immediate members of their band,
Il like the spirit in this girl. She's as
sleek as she-panther."
Legar's stickup lodged In through
the door,
Say, chief. there's an outsider tryin'
to butt in here!"
Both men promptly wheeled about
at those somewhat disconcerting
words.
Who Is her" was Legars quick
query.
An oil boob wit barl O. brandy.
Says he's driven in from Oyster
Dump"
Legar looked relieved. Casavanti
even lighted another cigarette.
That's all right. It's Old Eli. Help
him in with 1t. But see that nobody
else gets near that outside door"
There's always help around, Casa
vanti, in case like this" proclaimed
the scofiing Legar as a white-whisk-
cred old figure in bottle-green coat
and hat laboriously rolled the cask of
liquor through the opened door. The
Owl, with unlooked-for nimbleness in
one of her years, was already close
at hand. waiting with bung starter and
glasses.
Margory watched the suddenly clam
orous group as they clustered about
the open barrel. Her heart sank as
glasses were refilled and the clamor,
instead of diminishing, grew louder
and louder.
Then, even as she stood depressed
and troubled by this thought soft
pedal seemed to be slowly applied to
the tumult about her. The soporific
Owl herself. stumbling to a chair,
sank inertly into it. Then one after
another they sank into dreamless
stupor.
1t was then. and only then, that
Margory dared to move. She studi-
ously stared at that uncouth company
Of sleepers. Then. no longer watch
ing them. but with her eyes on the
door through which their lookout
might at any moment appear, she
groped her way to the side of the bar
rel. There she felt about the black
ened oak barrel top for the hidden
spring. A gasp of relief escaped her
lips as she found it. The covering fell
back on its concealed hinge, and float
ing inside it she found a white pine
shaving on which was written:
Turn barrel and empty it. Then
get in and replace cover. All will be

The stickup so coyertly yet so dis
consolately watching for any suspi-
cious approach to Legar's watergate
quarters, was astonished, few min

The girl stared back along the dusty

Ralph Herr in Pictures.

Ralph Herr one OF the foremost
comedians of the country and an ar.
tist who is distinctly different in his
work, will make his debut in motion
pictures in The Purple Lady, the
five act Metro wonderplay, which will
be shown at the Alta on Tuesday and
Wednesday.
Mr.. Herr is starred in this produc-
tion and Irene Howley, the charming
and fascinating young astress, is fea-
tured. Others in a strong supporting
cast include Alan Hale, Howard
Truesdell George Pauncefote, Guido
Colucci, Gretchen Hartman, Mrs.
William Betchel and Cora Williams.
There are scores of marvellous scenes
in THE Purple Lady" including in
teresting situations staged at Coney
Island on a holiday at that resort;
scenes aboard a transatlantic steam
ship and many colorful scenes photo
graphed in a famous restaurant on
Broadway. The Purple Lady is q

Pre-eminent among the trio is
Louise Glaum, famed as a vampire
woman, who skaters lives and bank
accounts. Miss Glaum is seen as Vio-
la Bretagne, a cafe parasite known as
The Moth, and her artistic handling
of the part is said to rival anything
she has ever done.
Next in importance to the trend of
the story is Blanche White, beauti-
ful ingenue, who makes her bow to
Triangle patrons in this subject. Miss
White has the delicate role of Rosa
lee, southern girl of social position.
The third beauty who figures in the
plot is Dorcas Matthews, who has been
seen in several Triangle-Ince produc-
tions Miss Matthews is cast as Ro-
sta, d fascinating opera singer OF
thirty decades ago-a part around
which the whole plot revolyes.
