grabbed Whitney by both shoulders.
"Gimme that book and the bottle,
or I'll knock your blamed head of -
he shouted.
Whitley was taken by surprise, a
thing that seldom happened to him.
"Lemme gov he yelled. "Lemme go,
d'you hear?"
Pat twisted the bottle of pellets out
of his hand and put IL In his pocket.
In doing this he had perforce to re-
lease his hold of Whitley for q mo-
ment. 1t was only moment, but
Whitley took full advantage of the sit
uation. He twisted out of Pats grasp
like an eel and ran
Into the ample form of Mrs. Spiel
burger, who promptly boxed his ears,
knocked him down with blow of her
brawny fist, and screamed for help.
Pat got the journal from Whitley be-
fore he had found his feet again. AS
the two men struggled a crowd began
to collect. A policeman came running
up.
Whitley, freed by Pat, started off
again, but this time he fell into the
policeman's arms. The policeman rec
ognized him as an old friend. and stuck
to him as such. Pat thrust his pellets
and the journal into Leontine's hands.
YOU'D better beat ii, Miss" he said.
I'll trust you for that five hundred"
LeOntine darted out of the yard,
pushed through the crowd, and found
taXicab. A moment later she was
being whrled away from the scene.
Leontine's new address was in a
fashionable part of the city. She had
decided that the best security lay in
publicity. She had small house, with
gardener, a chauffeur, and a couple
of maid servants. Thus aided, she
felt match for any schemes of Sc
bastan.
She was seated in her study waiting
for Rav6ngar when she heard the door

He turned and left the room, leav'

though she had no doubt that Jerry's
appearance was that Of a spectre, even
then she remembered that she had
heard his footstep.

Ravengar nesi.ated. Then he bowed
to leave her; then, returning, he took
her In his arms, and their lips met in
their first kiss.
II shall never give up the quest"
he said, as he released her.
Mr.. Whitley Wang was decidedly dis
posed to consider his charge a treas
ure. Nobody but q mailman would put
an old book and bottle of pellets In
q safety vault unless there were some
thing more in the action than met the
immediate understanding.
And Sebastian was not crazy.
Putting the book under his coat
and still holding the bottle of pellets
Wang began to make his way toward
another rookery, where he also had
lodgings, in virtue of certain alias
into which 1t is not necessary to go.
However, on the way Mr.. Wang re.
ceived another impulse, and FASTENED
to obey 1t. He would find out what
was In the book.
Stepping into doorway, he opened
the book and began to read 1t. Whitley
snorted with disgust. 1t seemed to be
book of travel. Mixed with 1t, how
ever, were the figures Of a cypher

again and again.
Ravengar was growing dazed. Sc

Ravengar until he sank with a groan
upon the floor, unconscious.
"Lemme finish him r. begged Whitley
as Sebastian stood over Ravengar's
PROSTATE body, considering whether to
fire or to give the final blow with his
revolver butt.
But at that instant the back door

One day in parliament a young men,
Der, one of ohm Redmond's political
opponents, rose to make his maiden
speech.
Although obviously suffering an ag-
ony of seriousness, he managed to say
some bitter things about the Irish
members.
Whereupon one of the Nationalist
started TO puncture his remarks
with jeers. thereby intensifying the
youthful members nervousness to an
almost pitiable degree. Redmond
turned on his follower in fury.
"Give the lad a chance!" he snapped.
The jeers ceased.

Sebastian listened eagerly to the
story of the two crooks, confederates

had discovered Leontine's new abode

Sebastian knew that what he

decision to this effect is announced
by the Brazilian foreign Office and COM

The Congress of Neutrals was spon-

pate in the congress is interpreted as
meaning that Brazil's mode Of action
against Germany will be unequivocal.

unanimously passed the. bill authoriz.
ing the revocation Of Brazil's neutral.

The hole in the west wing Of the
dam here was partly closed up Sunday
and work will be resumed on it again
next Sunday. It was necessary to open
the gates to lower the water so that the
men could work on the dam. When the
gates were again closed the river below
the dam was left practically dry until
the water level raised enough to let
the water flow over the spillway. Many
fish were left high and dry when the
water receded and a goodly number Of
families enjoyed fish for Sunday din
ner and supper.
