She needed almost a minute before
she c-omprehended her danger.
Then the vault echoed with her
screams, answered by voices from be-

passage, where Ryley and his associ-
ates we're at work with the ~acetylene
torch.
But however rapidly it worked it
could mo- possibly be swift enough to
compass Patria's salvation.
OF a sudden the girlstilled her cries.
In her struggles she had freed one
hand from its bonds. And in the pocket
Of her coat. convenient to that hand,
lay the dainty little revolver she had
on impulse snatched up on leaving her
boudoir 10 Newport the night before.
There was just a chance. She was a
fair shot, and the fuse was slow-burn-

Then the revolver slipped from her

Thus Ryley and the others found her
when, some ten minutes later. they at
length broke through the steel door.
The open air Of the garden revived
her. By the time q cab had been called
she had recovered sufficiently To appre-
ciate that Captain Parr had disap-
peared.
Her last instructions TO Ryley were
simple and direct:
THE money doesn't matter. But
never rest till you've found Captain
Parr!"

Luck Of a sort played into the hands
Of Captain Parr that morning. He
found no difficulty about trailing three
heavy-laden moving vans across the
lower West side to the waterfront.

EPISODE THREE
"Winged Millions"

When, some thirty minutes later, Pa
tria Claiming and Captain Parr re-
entered the walled garden they were no
more alone; three men accompanied
them, plain citizens all. Of manner and
appearance SO little romantic that the
girl found it somewhat difficult to ac-
cept them for what they really were,
on the word Of Captain P~arr-hlghly
efficient operatives of the United States
secret service.
None but would have been readily
lost in a crowd and he whom Parr pre-
sented as a Mr.. Ryley, his most valued
co-worker in the service. possessed q
personality so colorless and unassum-

Yet it was this one who took over tenn
porary charge of the reasure with the
utmost sang froid-for all the world as
thegSh he were asked to safeguard a
hundred cents instead Of a hundred
millions of dollars.
Though by this time the fremen had
extinguished the flames, the first and
second stories of the house were a
smoking. steaming mass Of wreckage
that precluded utterly any attempt TO
examine the approach 10 the treasure
vault via the library. Police still
watched in front of the house and
would. Ryley guaranteed, till the last
of the treasure had been removed
