common sense or to his romantic bent.
In two minutes he had stripped the
mustache clean away from that stu
pid, fiaccid mask.
Unquestionably the resemblance was
now most striking; the American
would readily pass for Michael Lam
yard
This much accomplished, he pursued
his preparations in feverish haste. In
spite of this, he overlooked no detail.
In less than twenty minutes he had
exchanged cl thing with the American
down to shirts, collars and neckties;
had packed in his own pockets the
several articles taken from the other,
together with the jointed jimmy and
few OF his personal effects and was
ready to bid adieu to himself, to that
Michael Lanyard whom Paris knew.
The insentient masquerader on the
floor had called himself "Goodenough
Smith," he must serve now as Good
enough Lanyard" at least for the
Lone VOLTS purposes; the police, at
all events, would accept him as such.
Distinguishing the lights, he stepped
quickly to a window and from one
edge of its shade looked down into
the street.
He was in time to see stunted hui
man silhouette detach itself from the
shadow of doorway on the opposite
walk move to the curb and wave ar
arm-evidently signaling another SEN
tinel on a farther corner and out of
! Lanyards range of vision.
Herein was additional proof, if any
lacked, that De Morbihan had not ex-
aggerated the disposition of Popinot-
He nodded grimly. moved back from
the window, and used the f1ash-lamp
to light him to the door.

Cling feebly; not long, but long enough
to enable his antagonist to shift his
hold and climb on top of his body,
where he squatted, bearing down
heavily with a knee on either of Lam
yards forearms, two hands encircling
his neck, murderous thumbs digging
into his windpipe.
He revived momentarily, pulled him
self together, and heaved nightly in
futile effort to unseat the other.
The sole result of this was tighten
ing pressure on his throat.
Then of sudden he ceased to
struggle and lay slack and passive in
the others hands.
Only an instant longer was the
clutch on his throat maintained. Both
hands left it quickly, one shifting to
his head to turn and press it roughly,
cheek to the floor. simultaneously he
was aware of the other hand fumbling
about his neck. and then of a touch
of metal and the sting of needle
driven into the flesh beneath his ear.
That galvanized him; he came to
life again in a twinkling, animate with
threefold strength and cunning. The
man on his chest was thrown off as
by young earthquake, and Lanyard S
right arm was no sooner free than 1t
shot out with blind but deadly accu-
racy to the point of his assailant' S
jaw. A click of teeth was followed by
a sickish grunt as the man lurched
over.
And then Lanyard was scrambling
to his feet, bit giddy, perhaps, but
still sufficiently master of his wits to
whip his pistol out before making one
further move.

| Picking it up, he examined with in
terest a small hypodermic syringe

So it appeared that this agent of the
Pack had been commissioned to- put
the Lone Wolf to sleep for an hour or
two or more-perhaps not perma-
nently-that he might be out of the
way long enough for their purposes.
Lanyard smiled grimly, lingering the
hypodermic and eying the PROSTATE
man.
Turn about" he reflected, "is said
to be fair play. Well, why not?"
With this he bent forward, dug the
needle into the wrist of the American
and shot the plunger home, all in a
single movement so swift and deft
that the drug was delivered before
the pain could startle the victim from
his coma.
AS for that, he recovered quickly
enough: but only to have his clearing
senses met and dashed by the muzZle
of pistol stamping cold ring upon
his temple.

Smith" Lanyard advised don't speak
above a whisper! Give the dope a
chance; it'll only want moment-or
I'm no judge and you're a careless
highlander! I'd like to know, how
ever, if it's all the same to you"
But the drug was taking swift Of
feet; the look of panic which had
drawn the features of the American
and fiickered from his eyes, with
dawning appreciation of his plight
was clouding, fading, blending into
zone of daze and stupor. The eyelids
futtered and lay still; the lips moved
as if with urgent desire to speak, but
were dumb; long, convulsive sigh
shook the Americans body, and he

but for the slow and steady rise and
fall of his bosom.
Thoughtfully Lanyard reviewed
these phenomena.

had left this thrown across the bed,

CHAPTER XII.
EIiuht.

That wistful shadow of his memo
ries, that covering Marcel of yester-
day, in acute terrc" of the heavy hand
of Nine Troyon, had never stolen down
that corridor more quietly; yet Lam
yard had taken not five PAGES from his
door when that other, at the far end
of the corridor, opened, and Lucia
Bannon stepped out.
He halted and shut his teeth upon
an involuntary oath-truly 1t seemed
as though this run of the devils own
luck would never end! y
Astonishment measurably modified
his evaporation. What had reused
the girl out of bed and dressed her
for the street at that unholy hour!
And why her terror at sight of him?
For that the encounter was no more
welcome to her than to him was as
patent as the fact that she was pre-
pared to leave the hotel forthwith. A
businesslike Burberry rainproof en-
veloped her from throat to the hem
of a short walking skirt OF. rough
tweed beneath which boots both stout
and brown were visible.
At sight of him she paused with
nervous start and instinctively stepped
back, cropping blindly for the knob OF
her bedchamber door, while the eyes
that held to his with an effect or
frightened fascination seemed momen-
tarily to grow larger and darker In
her face of abnormal pallor.
But these were illegible evidences,
and Lanyard ignored them, intent on
securing her attention and silence be-
fore she could speak and so. perhaps
betray him and ruin incontinently that
grim alibi he had prepared with such
elaborate pains. He moved toward her
swiftly, with long, silent strides, a
lifted hand enjoining rather than beg
ging her silence and attention. AS he
drew nearer he was aware that curl

ion of her temper She passed quickly
from dread to something oddly like re-
lief, from repulsion to something
strangely like welcome, and dropping

she in turn. moved quietly to meet
him.
He was grateful for this considera-
ton, for this tacit indulgence of the
wish he had as yet to voice. and drew
little hope and comfort from 1t In
an emergency which had surprised
him without resource other than to
throw himself upon her mercy. And
as soon as he could make himself
heard in the clear yet concentrated
whisper that was trick of his trade,
he addressed her in manner at once
peremptory and apologetic:
IF you please, Miss Bannon-not .
word, not whisper!
She paused and nodded, eyes stead
fast to his, questioning but compliant.
Doubtfully, wondering that she didn't
show more wonder, he went on in the
spirit of one committed to forlorn
hope:
Its vitality essential that l leave
this hotel without 1t becoming known.

She gave him pause with small
gesture. But how?" she breathed in
the least of whispers. THE con-

without movement of any perceptible
sort: his face more than half turned
to the floor and masked into the bar
gain.
Incredulously Lanyard stirred the
body with foot, holding his weapon
poised as though half expecting the
form to quicken with instant and VIC
lent action; but it responded in no
way.
With nod of satisfaction he shift
ed the light until it marked the near
est electric bulb, which proved, in
line with his inference, to have been
extinguished by the socket key rather
than by the wall switch while the heat
of the bulb indicated that the current
had been shut off only an instant be-
fore his entrance.
The light full up, he went back to
the thug, knelt, and lifting the body,
turned it upon its back.
Recognition Immediately rewarded
this maneuver: the masked face up
turned to the glare was that of the
American who had made fourth in
the concert of the Pack-"Mr. Smith"
Quickly unlatching the mask, Ian
yard removed it; but the countenance
thus exposed told little more than he
knew; he could have sworn he had
never seen it before. None the less,

CASE Of INTEREST
To Be CONTINUED

In the court of record this morning
at 10 o'clock, the damage action of
H. c. Harper against the Escambia
County Board of Public Instruction,
will be taken up and it is expected
that some agreement win be reached
by nightfall. The action was started
with the opening Of the court of rec
ord Saturday and allowed to go over
until this morning, when it was seen
that there was no possibility of
terminating the case Saturday night.
Plaintiff in this case was for few
months a school teacher in the public
schools at Century, and was relieved
of his position, it was claimed, for
cause. He maintains that he was
to be furnished work for the entire
scholastic year, and asks that the
board be compelled not only to pay
what he maintains is due, under the
agreement to teach, but he is asking
allowance for the peace of mind
which he had suffered since his al
legged removal for cause.

BIDS FOR REPAIR
Of DAMAGED BARK

Bids for the repair of damages
sustained by the Norwegian bark Elsa
have been received and opened at the
Office of A. E. Zelius, vice consul for
the Norwegian government, at Pensa-
cola, but as yet no offer thus far made
has been acceptable. The board,
which is receiving the invited bids,
will meet again this morning and a
contract for the repair or the Elsa
is expected to be awarded.
Bids for the repair of the vessel
ranged all the way from $4,000 to
$4,000, the latter figure also includ-
ing the offer to dock and discharge
the cargo of the vessel, it is said.
Repairs to the damaged British
bark Inveramsay, a victim of the late
storm, have been arranged for with
local contractors, and the work is pro-
ceeding satisfactorily. Unlike the
Elsa, however, the Inveramsay will
not have to be fitted with new spars,
