Eund saw visions of the plans she had
been laying for years arriving at frui-
tion-the Lund millions would be in
her possession.
Chockro upon leaving Mrs. Lund
went direct to his prisoner, saunter-
ing leisurely along In the assurance
that matters were shaping themselves
GUS efforts to reap the rich reward
would soon end In success. SO well
was the Hindu pleased with himself
and his prospects that he abandoned
all caution and proceeded boldly along
the street that led to the office In
which he had left his captive bound
and gagged.
Young Doctor Itund was hurryng
to the same destination. He APP
preached the building from direction
opposite to Chockro and was surprised
TO see the Hindu walk leisurely along.
Deciding to await developments Lund
screened himself from view in con-
venient doorway and watched Chock-
70 approach.
Suddenly piercing scream came to
funds ears. Instinctlyely he jumped
from the doorway in which he had
around. Chockro also heard the
| screams and at the same instant
caught sight of young Lund.
The Hindu leaped forward, and ran
full speed to the door of the building
in which Peg was confined Lund saw
the move, and undertook to head
Chockro off, but before the young doc
! tor could reach the door, the Hindu
had entered the building. When Lund
reached the door he found it securely
locked against him.
Again the screams rang out along
the deserted street. Chockro's pres
| ence in the vicinity convinced Lund
that he had unwittingly located Peg
| and her undoubted danger inspired the
young man to renewed determination.
| Lund flung himself against the
heavy wooden door, fruitlessly, again
and again. The strong material of
which 1t was built resisted his every
effort. He was compelled to abandon
| the attempt to enter the building
| through the door, and Immediately be-
gan casting about for some other
means of going to Pegs relief.
| He stepped back from the building
! toward the curb line and looked up,
at the instant that a crash of glass
sounded upon his ears, while heavy
book that had been thrown through the
window fell at his feet.
The incident gave Lund an idea, and

from Flip letter that proves Pegs pa
ter, Many exciting and hazardous at
tacks and events transplre. Doctor Lund' s
son, who is following Peg to induce her
to become his wife, rescues girl from

swung himself into the room. Chockro
and his fellow thug had just time to
rise to their feet before Lund attacked
them. Peg rolled herself close against
the wall to avoid the scutile, and I'm

The battle waged fiercely, Lund max

thug. Lund clenched with the Hindu
in a struggle for the revolver.
The young physician fully realized
that Chockro would use the gun If he
could. BY a concentration of his
great strength Lund managed to turn
the weapon against the Hindu's body.
The frenzled encounter lasted only a
few seconds, for in the height of the
battle the gun exploded and Chockro
crumpled to the fioor.
With one antagonist disposed of
Lund centered his athletic attention
upon Chockro's hired man. Back and
forth across the floor of the office they
fought, and when, by an opportune

fallen into box of rubbish. They
struggled back into the outer office
unaware that the crossed wires had
ignited the tlimsy paper and that they
had started a fire that might mean
their death.
Fiercely the struggle continued, the
scene of the struggle shifting again to
the outer office, where Chockro lay
dead upon the floor. Over his pros

FIFTEENTH EPISODE

Pegs attack of hysterical madness,
climaxing In her attack upon Flip, the
clown gave Chockro and his men the
opportunity they desired. They had
watched Peg as she chung to Flip's
throat until he fell almost unconscious
to the ground. Then when the circus
girl tumbled forward upon the clowns
the spot.
The Hindu raised the girl, with the
help of his henchmen, and carried her
from the tent. They had secured the
assistance of an automobile owner will
ing to perform the service they re-
CURED for the bride they offered, and
before the greatly excited people with
the circus realized what had happened,
ChocSro, carrying his still insensible
victim, had left the grounds.
The excitement attendant upon the
bolsterous scenes around the circus
made possible the success of the Hin
du's daring action.
When Flip had sufficiently recovered
to tell what had happened to him,
the alarm was sounded that Peg
had again disappeared
"Send word TO young Doctor Lund,"
said Flip. "He has rescued her before
and he will not fail this time"
jerry, the hippodrome jockey, ever
eager to serve Peg, was prompt to vol
unteer as the messenger.
Arriving Mt the house of death, Jer-
ry was admitted by Mrs. Lund's maid
and to her the boy impaired, in whis-
pered sentences, the information that
Peg had again been kidnapped and that
young Doctor Lund was to be told
Tell him without the old woman
hearing YOU" was Jerrys injunction.
There is no need to caution me-"
responded the maid. IL know the old
girl better than anybody else, and /
know that she would keep the boy
from going to help Peg If she knew
what he was after"
1t was some little time before the
maid found an opportunity favorable
to her purpose. And when she told
young Lund, in few words, that Peg
was again in danger, he was prompt
to act.
Hurrying to the circus, Lund sought
out Flip, but the old clown could give
him no information. There was no
body around the show who could give
the slightest clue to Pegs where
abouts.
Burdened with the responsibilities
of preparing for his stepfather's flu

the building Lund concluded that he
might climb up to the window that had
just been broken. 1t was his convic-
ton that Peg was held prisoner in
the room from which the book had Just
been thrown. The peculiar construc-
ton of the facade helped Lund in his
climb.
Narrow hedges of stone coping pre-
iccted from the brick wall at equal
distance, running parallel with the
stone window stills. BY breaking the
glass with his feet to gain foot
hold on the window sashes, and reach
ing up for hand holds on the iron
lodges, Lund was able TO climb the per-
pendicular sides of the building.
Chockro had mounted the stairs and
entered an Office adjoining the room in
which Peg had been left bound hand
and foot The Hindu was consulting
with his pal when noise from the
front office attracted his attention. The
two men rushed into the next room.
Peg had managed TO gain her feet
and was leaning against heavy desk
presumably to be ready to execute
some unexpected maneuyer Without
stopping to consider the futility of the
move, Chockro snatched up q book
from nearby desk and flung it
Mt the girl. Peg lodged, and the book
continued It's course, crashing through
the window.
Chockro and his man made haste
to reach the circus girl and throw her
once more to the floor. Peg. in re-
sisting their attack, not alone kept the
two men busy at their brutal task, but
provided time for young Lund TO climb
to her relief.
The struggle within the office
drowned the noise made by Lund in
smashing glass as he clambered up

arm strength until he could secure a
foothold In the window frames. II
was therefore possible for Lund to
reach the window of the room in
which the rufiians were struggling
with Peg before his approach was dis
covered.
Standing on the window ledge and
steadying himself by holding the
stone coping above, Lund kicked the
remaining glass from the sash and

corner. With all speed Lund freed the
girl, but when they started toward the
door great clouds of smoke rolled into
the room. their sitting fumes being the
first inkling Of this new danger.

spoke Lund was swiftly dragging Peg
toward the window.
The fumes were roaring with cor

Lund first climbed through the win
dow, and stood on the stone sill. He
then assisted Peg to reach his side
and instantly began the perilous de,
scent. They made their escape not
an instant too soon.
Being in q remote part of town,
the alarm was delayed, and only q few
people had been attracted by the fire
VIXEN the young people had accom-
pliShed their escape. Without waiting
fol an investigation, Lund hurried Peg
TO the circus grounds, dlsregarding the
commotion they created as they ran
through the streets.
Flip was fast recovering from the
shock of Pegs attack, and when he
heard that the girl was safely re-
turned to the show. the joy of realiz-
ing that she was unframed served to
completely revive the old clown. When
Peg had finished dressing and had
joined Lund and Flip, the three start
ed at once for the Lund home.
The afternoon had passed amid such
excitement that 1t was almost six
O'Clock when Doctor Lund. with Flip
and Peg, arrived at the house. Mrs.
Lund was impatlently waiting for the
will to be read, and had repeatedly
urged the lawyer to proceed.

,f mind. Racked between love for the
girl and respect for the dead, the
yot man was puzzled as to the next
move he might make.
There was an immediate necessity
for him to visit the local office of
the circus, situated in a building not
far from the show lot. Lund decided
that he would go their first, transact
his business, and then bend his efforts
to the discovery of Pegs Whereabouts.
What for the moment seemed TO
be an unfortunate cause of delay to
Lund's main purpos to rescue Peg
from her latest peril, proved to be
