nOuncement was received in passive
silence ard the card-playing and story
telling continued as before. They were
determined not to bulge from the spot
until the promised interview" was de-
liyered and they settled down to make
a night Of il if necessary.
Adams movements after leaving the
summer house were very peculiar. He
loltered In the gardens a while, chat
ting with the soldiers and making him
self conspicuous. He was in a jOvial
mood and being popular created many
laugh and more than half succeeded
In his effort to relieve the strain on
everyone natural in the unusual situa-
ton.
He rambled over to the garage, show
ing a curious interest In the place. 1t
was not often that he or anyone else
was free to enjoy the liberty Of inspect
ing the cars for Toxic maintained q
strict and jealous guard over his juris-
dictiOn.
Adams started a slight conversation
with the soldier on guard. "Some
d-dump this eh, dough-bOy?"
If there is anything an infantryman
resents 1t Is this slurring barracks epi-
thet. The guardsman growled in a
surly fashion and withdrew into the
shadows Of the garage apparently to
avoid Adams.
Adams followed him in. "No O-of-
fense meant, sonny. Want little
taste of something?" He smacked his
lips and produced bottle.
The guardsman's manner changed. 81
don't care If l do" he responded in
Modified tone Of voice. And they
stepped behind the limousine.
The guardsman took a long pull at the
bottle and returned it to Adams and at
the same time knocked him senseless
with the butt of his rifle. Then he lift
ed him into the limousine, closed the
curtains, shut the door and stuffng the
bottle In his hip pocket coolly resumed
his sentry duties.
Within the next few moments Toxic
arrived In the repaired automobile. The
sentry stepped aside as he steered the
car into the garage. Afterwards he
sauntered up and kept his eye on Toxic
while the chauffeur stalled his machine
climbed out of his seat and began to
put everything In order for the night.
The most perfunctory kind of greeting
was exchanged between the two. Toko's
face showed that he resented the pres
ence of the soldier.
After making sure that everything in
the garage was as 1t should be, Toxic
Macon beacon., 1917-03-16

mel escorted them into the study, clos
ing and boiling the door.
I'VE can talk undisturbed and un.
heard, gentlemen" he assured as they
swept the room with cautious eyes aft
er hearing the prophesy Of the news
paper men.
They sat down presently with pencil
and paper and the data brought to the
meeting by the secretary Of war. This
data was Of private and official char
acter and 1t was not intended that 1t
should ever reach the press in its pres
ent fOrEl. II was for this reason more
than any other that soldiers, whose In
tegrity was established beyond a doubt,
were stationed outside near the study
wlndOws-which we're shaded and
lOcked--and that Major Brent person
ally guarded the only other entrance to
the study-the door leading into the
library proper; and when he was not
on guard Adams or Pearl was. With
the exception Of Miss Dare and her
guest, Bertha Bonn, no one else was
permitted In the library.
The household servants went to
their quarters soon after their eve
ming duties were performed; the but
Ter had purpOsely been granted q night
of there were no servants whatsoever
on the first floor and the two upstairs
girls were always in sight or sound Of
their mistress; and Toxic, the chauf-
feur, was known to be at local repair
sbop overhauling one Of the cars.
The whereabouts Of Brent's secret
guard inside the house was, Of course,
told to Pearl and Bertha during the
early part Of the evening. The object
OF this extra precauton was obvious !;
not even the house inmates, them
selves, could speak without being over
heard by someone in duty bound to re-
port to the major; and any person
without a license to be about would be
instantly discovered and elected. To
make the place all the more inaccessl-
bic to stealth or intrigue, while the
window blinds were tightly drawn
downstairs the easements in the upper
stories were wide open and through
the screens the reporters In the sum-
mer house could see that every room
was brilliantly alight.
Thus was the lure laid for the Silent
Menace In perfect detail.
"If he g-gits In, we ketch him, and
II he's In now, he'll never git O-out,"
was how Adams summed up the ar
rangements to the members Of the
press to whom the quaint fellow was a
genuine treat and new news" topic
Macon beacon., 1917-03-16

every time he mingled with them. The
fact that Adams was under surveil-
lance they did not know; nor did he,
apparently-Brent saw to that and
made 1t his own affair.
Nor did Brent know that Adams was
shadowing him and also Bertha Bonn.
Bertha, however, knew this. She knew,
too, that she could trap Adams with Il
word to Pearl. And no better oppOr-
tunity was ever offered. Bertha's eyes
and ears were open.
Adams was cognizant Of great In
ner change in Bertha Bonn. Revenge
In Bertha's heart was being supplanted
by her former lover In finer and deep
er form for the waywarding sweetheart
Of her girlhood. On this night she was
more completely under the spell Of the
captivating major than even that astute
observer into the heart of a woman
perceived. If Brent had only known 1t
he could have sealed Bertha's lips for
ever on the question of their former
relations by simple application of the
artifce Of love-making In which he was
so skillful, or one show of kindness and
sincerity.
But this sentimental attitude Of
Bertha entirely escaped him. He was
too busy trying to make definite i'm
preston on Pearl. He knew that the
time had come when he must either
win or fortify himself to lose in his
suit for her hand and he had about
reached the end Of his rope. Pearls
sighting heed to his yelled coQuetry
and particular delight In Stabbing him
when he grew too bold, only made mat
ters more desperate. At such times
she openly tlirted-but only that-with
Adams and appeared to get good deal
Of quiet and amused satisfaction out of
it, If nothing more. Though Adams
may have been tlattered, he never once
forgot his place. He could not we'll run
the risk of the disciplining his superior
officer would be nightly pleased to
find an excuse to inflict.
Some time about ten the orderly was
sent to the summer house to tell the re-
porters that the expected statement
would be late in forthcoming. This an
Macon beacon., 1917-03-16

started for the stairs which led to his
private quarters. Whereupon he OBJ
served that the blinds In the limousine
were drawn. 1t was mere detail but
If anything, Toxic was a crochety fel-
low. He had already flashed the light
out, so without stopping to put them
on again he approached the limousine
with the evident intention Of raising
the blinds.
The guardsman divining his motive
struck him just as he had Adams. Toxic
fell In his arms and he, too, was thrust
into the limousine tonneau.
When Major Brent appeared at the
garage some time subsequently, he
found the sentry pacing back and forth
In front of the open doorway.
II thought heard Toxic return mo-
ment ago." the officer curtly stated
with a peculiar stare at the saluting
sentry.
''He has gone to bed, SIR"
"Have you seen Adams2"
The sentry nodded. "He Just left
here"
"In which direction?"
ITO the house, sir; l saw him enter"
The major seemed to question this
statement mentally. II dt1n't see him
enter"
"You came one way. He went an
other. I have been watching both
DOORS" exclaimed the sentry In a cool
and deliberate voice.
This seemed to clear the majors
mind. He nodded and strobe away.
The sentry's departing salute was more
than salute. 1t was finished in an
ironical salaam.
His shoulders shook with suppressed
laughter as when Brent disappeared
from sight he sneaked into dark cor
ner OF the garage, raised the whisky
flask to his lips and emptied it.
But a strange and swift retribution
befell this demon of guardsman. He
was seized by masked man who
seemed to resolve out of the shadows.
The onslaught was so sudden that
the guardsman never knew what hap
pened next. He was gagged, blindfold-
ed and bound in flash and securely
