"As friend Of the-that is Of Mr..
Lowrie," he remarked, may be per-
mitted to suggest that this idea Of his
about a conspiracy rather supports
Doctor Kirkland's theory of irrespon-
sibility."
Clinton set his jaw and stood silent,
evidently resolved to say no more.
Doctor Kirkland smiled approval.
''That is better, my boy. Keep cool.
Over-excitement is good for no one.
May see the warrant?"
The official produced the warrant.
The physician glanced through it with
an experienced eye. "Hm-embezzle-
ment of the bonds-Will Lowrie, alias
Richard Clinton"
Pardon me-" remarked BENIN some
what diffidently. II wish to say hap
pen to know that the-er-party rep
resenting the bank in this matter Is
inclined to accept my theory that our
friend disposed Of-that is to say, mis-
placed the bonds while mentally ire

"there has been no publicity so far ;

CHAPTER X.
Biackmaii.

When BENIN drove up to the Kirk
land residence in his big touring car
he found Clinton doing in a swing
bench, and the girls on guard over
him. Each had her charming nose in
a magazine that she might not be
tempted to chatter and thereby dis
turb the repose Of their drowsy
charge.
Bemm's arrival reused Clinton, and
for some time the four talked on i'm
personal topics. At last Ellen and
AMY went inside. BENIN promptly

lor increased. Shuddering with dread
of what might be within, she rushed
into the room. Ellen followed, still
more fearful of what they might find.
Clinton was reposing in the depths
of big "sleepy-hollow" chair, as
peaceful and still as if asleep. Amy.
perched on the arm of the chair, was
stroking his forehead and closed eyes.
She looked about at the ,ntruders
and touched her lips for silence. But
her patient had opened his eyes. At
sight of the frightened ladies, he cap
tured Amy's hand and sat up in the
chair. his face red with embarrass
ment.
ooh keep your seat! Do not dis
turb yourselfl Be calm" urged Mrs
Kirkland.
Amy freed an arm and slipped II
about his neck. "You are calm now.
Aren't you, DEAR" she soothed.
"Yes-yes, of course" mumbled Clin-
ton, but his color deepened.
But, dearest" murmured Ellen
you must be dizzy. You look SO
queer"
Clinton's expression became still
more peculiar. His features were con-
vulsed. He waggled his hands. This

Don't you-Chocolate SOLDIER"
They looked at one another In acute
alarm There now could be no doubt
as to his condition. He sought to ex-
plain: ''The-the opera"
"Opera?" repeated Amy. "Oh, yes
yes, we understand, dear. You are
reminded of that opera, when the hero
comes into the castle and the ladies
make such a fuss of him. Yes, dear
we understand. So now hush and be
quiet"
But instead of obeying, he flung him.
self back in the chair and burst into
roar of laughter. The outburst was
far more violent than the first. II
did not end until he lay helpless from
spent emotion, tears rolling down his
cheeks, and his hands feebly beating
the arms of the chair. Mrs. Kirkland
lowered over him, ready with the bot
tie of lavender salts. On either side
of him knelt Amy and Ellen, each with
her arm about his neck, her head
against his shoulder, and hand strok
ing his face.
"Save-save the pieces !" he painted
The girls redoubled their tender
caresses. Mrs. Kirkland held her bot
tie under his nose. He took Whit

 I secured Sam Berger5 heavy weight as my chief sparring partner, also got the services of Yank Kenny and Jimmy Britt, the lightweight We proceeded to the task of whipping my self into condition to fight one of the greatest ring warriors that ever lived.
 The main part of my early training was devoted very largely to wrestling. My first meeting with Jeff had as- Guainted me with what I could expect from him. He was such big rugged
 fellow that whenever he got into clinches he could wear down most ath- ietes by his tugging, hauling and pull ing. So l devoted myself to learning all the tricks of the wrestling trade end strengthening up my shoulders and back so that l could break at least
 fifty-fifty with Jeffries whenever mauling was the programme
 A short time later Tommy Ryan came to my camp and offered to as- sist in conditioning me. I eagerly ac-, cepted his services. For I knew if there was one man who could school me in how to avoid some of Jeff's rushes and his trick punches. Tommy Ryan was the man. Some years before Ryan and Jeffries had been very good friends, but they had quarreled and Ryan had become bitter enemy of the champion. His chief ambition in life was to see Jeffries dethroned and l Tommy went to every human limit In
 his efforts to get me into shape and to l show me how to beat Jeffries.

 Ryan, who had trained Jeffries, knew all about the delivery of that punch. Ryan would punch at me from the same angle as Jeff and I would practice the defense -against it.
