He pushed the door a.jar and
after listening outside, said:
"Dont move. And don't open
the door to anybody, Oh any pre-
text whatever, before | come ia
fetch you. | shall not be long
He locked the door behind him
and went down to the first floor.
He did not feel those high spirits
which usually cheered him on the
eve of his great battles. This time.
Florence L%evasseur's life and lib
crty were at stake; and the conse-
quences oil a defeat seemed to him
worse than death.
Through the window ON the
landing he saw the detectives
guarding the courtyard. He
counted six of them. And he also
saw the deputy chief at one of the
windows of his study, watching
the courtyard and keeping in
touch with his detectives.
"By Jovc" he thought, "he's
sticking to his post. 1t will be a
tough job. He suspects something.
However, LETT make a start"
He went through the drawing
room and entered his study.
Weber saw him. The two enemies
were face to face.
There was a few seconds 81.
lence before the duel opened, the
duel which was bound to be swift
and vi gorous, without the least
sign OF weakness or distraction on
either side. 1t could not last
longer than three minutes.
The deputy chiefs face bore an
expression of mingled JOY and
anxiety. For the first time he had
permission. he had orders, to fight
that accursed Don Luis, against
whom he had never yet been able
to satisfy his hatred. And his de-
light was all the greater because
he held every trump, whereas Don
Luis had put himself in the wrong
by defending Florence Levasseur
and tampering with the girl's por-
trait. On the other hand, Weber
did not forget that Don Luis was
identical with Arsene Lupin; and
this consideration caused him q
certain uneasiness. He was obvi-
ously thinking:
"The least blunder, and I'm
done for"
He crossed swords. with a Jest.

"They haven't seen him 90

he said. SIS the chemist S near?''
"Just around the corner, in the
Rue de Bourgogne. Besides, we
can telephone"
ooh, we can telephone!'' NUT
tered Weber.
He was quite at a loss and
looked like a man who does not
know what is going to happen
next. He moved slowly toward
the instrument, while barring the
way to Don Luis to prevent his
escaping. Don Luis therefore re-
treated to the telephone box, as
if forced to do so, took down the
receiver with one hand, and, call
ing, "Hullo! Hullo! SAKE, 24O9,,"
with the other hand, which was
resting against the wall, he cut
n of the wires with a pair of
pliers which he had taken off the
table as he passed.
"Hullo! Are you there? Is
that 2409? Are you the chemist?

What do you say? But it's too
awful! Are you sure? Do you
mean to say the wound is poi

Without thinking what he was
doing, the deputy chief pushed
Don Luis aside and took hold of
the receiver. The thought of the
poisoned wound was too much for
him.
Are you there9' he cried,
keeping an eye on Don Luis and
motloning to him not to go away.
Are you there? :. Eth?
It's Deputy Chief Weber, of the
detective office, speaking.

-. Oh, hang it, why don't you

Suddenly he let go the instru-
ment, looked at the wires, per-
ceived that they had been cut, and
turned round, showing a face that
clearly expressed the thought in
his mind.
"That's done it. I've been
tricked!"
Perenna was standing a couple
of yards behind him, leaning care
lessly against the woodwork of
the arch, with his left hand passed
between his .back and the wood
work. He was smiling, smiling
pleasantly, kindly, and genially:

GREAT ORATOR BACK

die West to give up for some months
the pastor who had come only four or
five months previously to take charge
of their great $4,000 plant. Patri-
O~tically they said, go" and the gov
eminent put him In uniform, gave him
a Captains commission and sent him
with n dozen other distinguished men
to France as an official observer of
Rec Cross war activities ut the front.
Picked out because of trained ability
to see things, and his mental prepa-
ration enabling him to place things
seer In their proper historical rela-
ton, the vital and final reason for his
selection was his wonderful ability to
make others see what lac has seen.
And it is wonderful what he saw from
the time he left Washington, through
the vaccination and various inOcula-
tons Uncle Sam administers to his
men before he will let them face the
front, the lodging with submarines,
the landing in France, the glimpses
of great American warehouses on
French soil, the work Of the great
transfer points, meeting with distin-
guished men, talks with men ut the
front, through the bOmbardment Of
Paris, closeup views Of the great
German drive in Flanders, the food
question abroad, the marvellous work
of the Red Cross, the Irish situation

that for bachelor Ward was very or

way to whiten their hens. She hung

But where was Ward2 Billy Louise
bethought her that Blue deserved
something to eat after that hard ride
and led him down to the stable. There
was no sign of Rather, and Billy
Louise wondered anew at Wards alb
sence. 1t did not seem consistent with
his haste to leave the Wolverine and
his frequent assertion that he must get
to work. From the stable door she
could look over practically the whole
creek bottom isithin bis fence, and she
could see the broad sweep of the hills
on either side. On her way back to
the cabin she tried to track Rather,
but there were several stock trails
leading in different directions, and the
soil was too dry to leave any distin-
gushing marks.
She waited for an hour or two, sit
ting in the doorway nibbling jerky and
trying to read magazine. Then she
found a stub of pencil, tore out an adj
vertising page which had a wide mar
gin and wrote: Il don't think you're a

depression was now mixed with dis

herself.
