it now, captain, for / don't want to
break the set"
He quickly crossed to that silently
raging guardian of the peace and ex.
tracted the yellow bit Of metal from
his unwilling fingers. Then with lev
eled weapon he backed slowly to the
open window, and, leaping out with
an agile spring, vanished from the
sight OF that little assemblage. Over
come with the very audacity OF this
daring stroke, they stood for mo-
ment staring at the open window, then
came a hurried stampede out OF the
house to cut off the retreat OF the
masked fugitive.
Davy, remaining behind, for the OBJ
vious reason that he was still securely
handcuffed, found fixed upon him the
somewhat scornful glance Of Margery
Golden.
why have you led me to think you
were the brave Laughing Mask all
this timer" she demanded, with a ris-
ing infection of anger.
"If you must know, Margery," he
replied, cropping for his words, 'it was
because love you and thought you
were learning to love him for his
bravery in your defense"
"You were quite right in thinking
So" answered the blazing-eyed girl;
Il do love him and l could never love
anyone who could stoop to such de-
ception as you have"
They were interrupted in the midst
of this painful discussion by the re
turn Of the crestfallen police captain
and Davy's much-relieved employer.
I'VE couldn't find the slightest trace
OF that impudent masquerader," sait
the aged banker in response to hil
secretary's questioning look, but
don't care so much now that you arr
absolved from this ridiculous charge.
Then, turning to Captain Bracket, h,
added with pardonable sarcasm, '1sn'
it about time you released this des
perate criminal?"
AS Davy stood rubbing his achini
wrists, from which the half-heartedl,
apologetic officer had Just removed tn
constraining handouts, his eye fell o.
that strip of paper Margery had rC
trieved at such great hazard and whic
now lay on the table forgotten In tn
excitement of the moment.

to lose It after that terrible fight"
He was suddenly interrupted by the
sound of loud and raucous shouts and
the jerky whirring OF the taxicab en-
gine.
These men are in an ugly mood
and will stop at nothing. My man and
| can hold them off until you get a
start When you get home give that
paper to your fathers secretary, 1t
concerns him deeply. Go at once and
ride as hard as you know how"
From the depths Of comfortable
wicker chair in the spacious living
room, Margery narrated the exciting
events of the last hour to little cir
Gle Of breathless auditors, including
the somewhat abashDd Captain Brack-
ett of headquarters.
And when she exhibited that tat
tered slip OF paper which she had
been instructed to deliver to the
young secretary, David Manley, the
red-faced captain could restrain him
self no longer.
"I amt sayin' this Laughing Mask
amt brave enough when it comes to
a showdown" he said in unctuous
tones, "but that don't let him off those
crimes he's charged with. I've been
followin' up a clue that leads right
into this house, Mr.. Golden, and il
you amt got any objections I'd like
TO have a talk with that secretary o.
yours"
At that moment the unsuspectint
object OF this thinly yelled insinuatior
airily entered the room. Margery ut
tered a gasp of surprise as she saw hi
left hand bound in a blood-staineC
handkerchief.
"That left hand of yours looks kim
of mussed up" said the police captain
"perhaps you wouldn't mind tellin' u
how 1t got hurt"
For the first time since Marger
had known the frank and boyishl

This daring eavesdropper wore

He now seemed animated by strong

once opposed him and hearing was
held by a subcommittee of the inter

committee eventually reported the
nomination favorably, but vote in
the senate was withheld until con-

to the senate in December. At the

GRANT EXECUTED
At STATE PRISON
Condemned Man Killed J. t. burst at
Johnston in 1906-Did Not APP
peal to Supreme Court.

The State.
Joe Grant, a negro, was executed
Tuesday at the State penltentiary'
Grant claimed that he was innocent
of the crime.
The negro was convicted several
weeks ago in the Edgefeld county
court on the charge Of murder and
was sentenced to be electrocuted on
April IA. Gov Manning granted
reprieve for 80 days in order that
further investigation might be made
of the case.
Yesterday morning a hearing was
held before the governor, when it was
again requested that the sentence be
commuted to life Imprisonment. At
noon Gov. Manning telephoned to the
State penitentiary that he would not
interfere with the sentence of death
imposed by the Edgefeld court.
Grant killed j. T. burst, mer-
chant of Johnston in 1906 aGd escap-
ed. He was located in Philadelphia
two years ago by detectives. For
two years the negro fought against
being brought back to South Caro-
line. In an appeal to the supreme
court of the United States he claimed
that he would be lynched if return
ed to this State. He lost his fight in
all of the courts and was returned to
Edgefeld for trial.
The governor made the following
statement: 81 have carefully con-
sidered all phases of this case and
have given it my best thought. l have
reached the conclusion that Joe Grant
received a fair trial, and that the ver-
dict of the jury was in accordance
with the evidence. Therefore, I do
no, feel justified in interfering with
the sentence of the court. The ver-
dict of the jury and the sentence of
the court will be carried out
