that he left on his desk at his Of
fee. and which may fail and cause
IN explosion. As he thinks OF 1t q
little boy near him smashes an air
filled paper bag with q resounding
thwack. The explosion coming at
the same time that Craig is think
ing Of the dynamite causes him to
jump out OF his seat in nervous
fright.
Nearby sits Burley Hadden, a
shrewd and crooked attorney. He
secs Craig and decides that he's a
coward and . dub. That suits his
purpose exactly and ne proceeds to
hire Craig for q delicate mission
and promises to pay him $1,000 il
he succeeds. MADDEN doesn't. want
him to succeed. but he has to make
o show of carrying out the mission
and he thinks Craig will fall in

Right there Craig fools him. He
departs on the mission, finds q

and MIR. Reid Is at his best as John
Craig. The supporting, cast Is ex.
cellent. Nina Byron being the lead
