Topping the brow OF the incline, he
heard above the whine of his motor
the sharp clatter of a horses hooff

had given chase.
And then. on a slight down grade
though he took II at perilous speed and
seemed veritably to ride the wind, the
pursuing machine, aided by its great.

rapidly. Mcmentarily the hoarse roar

from under him the heavy waterproof
cushion that fitted the seat.
Then. edging ever to the left of the
middle of the road, abruptly he shut
off power and applied the brakes with
all his might
From its terrific speed the taxicab
came to a stop almost within its
length.
Lanyard was thrown forward
against the wheel, but having braced
in anticipation, escaped injury and ef-
fected instant recovery.
The car Of the Apaches was upon
him in a pulse beat. With no least
warning of his intention, De Morbihan
had no time to employ brakes. Ian
yard saw it's dark shape flash past the
windows of his cab and heard a shout

In alarm, unable to comprehend the

a warding elbow. He was too slow
the cushion caught him full force on
the side of the head, and before he
could recover or guess what he was
doing, he had twisted the wheel sharp
ly to the right.
The car, running at little less than
locomotive speed, shot like a projectiIe

strip Of sidewalk, caught its right fore

broadside to the drive, and turned
over as it shot down the

Struck by the strangeness Of this
maneuver, he looked quickly round, to
recognize the moonlike mask OF De
Morbihan grinning sardonically at him
over the steering wheel of the black
car.
A second hasty glance discovered
four men in the back With no time
to identify them, Lanyard questioned
their origin as little as their malign
intent - Belleville bullies, beyond
doubt, drafted from Popinot's bat
talions, with orders to bring in the
Lone Wolf. dead or alive.
He had instant proof that his appre-
tensions were unexaggerated. OF
sudden De Morbihan cut out his en-.
gine's muffler and turned loose his
electric horn. Between the deep
chested detonations of the exhaust and
the mad, blatant yowling of the warn
ing a hideous clamor echoed and re-
echoed in that quiet street-a racket
in which the report of a revolvershot
was drowned out and went unnoticed.
Lanyard himself might have been un-
aware of 1t had he not caught out of
the corner of his eye, a flash Of fire
that spat out at him like flaming ser
pent's tongue, and heard the crash of
the window behind him falling inward,
shattered.
That the shot had no immediate sue
cessor was due almost wholly to Ian
yards instant and instructive action.
Even before the clash of broken
glass registered on his consciousness,
he threw in the high speed and shot
away like frightened greyhound.
So sudden was this move that It
caught De Morbihan himself unpre-
pared In an instant Lanyard had ten
yards lead. In another he was spin
ming on two wheels round an acute
corner into the T2ue Jean Goujon; and
in a third, as he shot through that
short block to the Avenue d'Antin, had
increased his lead to fifteen yards. But
he could never hope to better that
rather the contrary. The pursuer was
the more powerful car, and captained,
to boot, by one reputed to be the most
daring and skillful motorist in France.

Its initial glare struck full and

electric reading lamp and transferred
1t to the floor between the safe and the
screen.
But even before she had put down
the lamp Lanyard had recognized the
woman; before the swift food of light

time pressed, and the usefulness of his
car was at an end as far as he was
concerned; there was no saying how
many times its identity might not
have been established in the course of
that wild chase through Paris, or how
soon the police might contrive to over
haul and apprehend him; and as soon
as q bend in the road shut off the scene

THE TRIP TO
SPRINGFIELD
Sightseeing And Judging
Fills The DAYS

John Clancy, Newarks repre-
sentative of the School Garden
class, who made the market judg-
ing team, sent by the government
to represent Delaware at the
Springfield Exposition, gives a
glowing account of the trip. The
party of twelve Delaware boys and
girls, under the chaperonage of
Mr.. Stanley, government repre-
sentative and Miss jefferson, ex-
tension worker, left Newark last
wednesday morning, as guests of
the government. The party stop
ped over several hours in Phila-
delphia, in making change of
cars, visiting during their stay in
the city Independence Hall, Wan
amaker's Store, the Betsey Ross
House, Franklin's grave, and old
Christ Church. They left Phila-
delphia at 1.2O, stopping for an
hour in New York, and arriving at
Springfield about eight o'clock.
The twelve young people from
Delaware and nine from Pennsyl-
vania were entertained at a pri-
vate home in Springfield. Thurs
day morning was spent in seeing
the sights of the city-the State
House, the place where the fam
Gus Springfield rifles are made, etc.
Thursday afternoon and all day
Friday was spent at the Exposition
grounds, where the showing as re-
ported in another column, testified
that Delaware had sent team
worthy of the commonwealth.
