Molly's place was a dive OF a singu-

Of the worst type, place to which the
women Of the streets sank when they
were nearly at the end Of the tether.
No woman who ever entered It came
out alive. Its customers were sailors
and men Of the roughest sort. And It
was to this place that Stone ordered
the two girls to be takeni
The girls had not been idle during
their captivity In Gruen's cellar. They
found pick and, a crowbar in their
cell, but could make no impression
upon the heavy door. So they turned
their attention to the paddock. This
was not on the door by which they had
been thrust in. but on a smaller door
which might lead, they thought, to the
cellar Of the next house. As matter
OF fact, though they did not, OF course,
suspect It. It actually led to the cellar
. In which the lions were confined.

came to 0ruen's instead OF Tom and
( iTravefs. But that made no difference
to Dunn's men and Gruen. They were
attacked at once, and Bruce was
knocked senseless at the beginning Of
the fight. Jack. stepping on to the
trap. fell into the cellar among the
lions. In horror. he backed against the
door. and 1t opened behind him. The
two girls removed the. paddock just In
time and dragged him through, closing
the door before the lions could en-
ter.
But now the .mei. who were to take
the girls to Molly's place came In. and

the best fight hc could. The noise
brought the police. and Stevens and
