 "OK' '' Her voice died of in relief.
 I've sent another fellow out. Hope he's in time"
 "Where?" This was from Vira

 ,, Dick tinkered and tickled and ad- justed. All he got was some fool amateur on the same wave length. He swore. He tried to swear over the ether. but with i'll success, The in- terference was there to stay, as it always is when one is listening in on something pretty good.
 Dick was sore. But he was not surprised. When he first became greatly interested in wireless some eighteen months before there had been perhaps fifty thousand wirless telephone receiving sets. A year la ter there had been six hundred thou sand. Today, he knew, one authority had estimated a million and the gov ernment had estimated a million and a half in the papers that week. No d. fact he would have been pleased at almost any other time. For, even If him family were wealthy, Dick had visions of himself some day doing better than the biggest of the radio firms which was doing business at the rate of fifty million dollars year. Thoughts like this had no was that he was the victim of inter- ference. And he was sore-and wor- ried too.
 For the use of the ether (begging the pardon of Einstein and his theory) is not limitless. It will ac- commodate just so many wireless messages and no more-at least until

 Dick cast the headgear in useless vexation on the table.
 It seemed to him that he had been on the point of getting just the inn portant thing he wanted to hear. He had been making notes as he went along, for somewhere he had heard something about the methods of de- tectives.
 His mind was in a whirl, as if a dozen people were sending in his | mental ether at once. Then. sudden l ly, as if unconsciously. he had | sharpened the thoughts to the exact l wave length, one idea seemed to swamp all others.
 Dick felt that he must get to this place where Ruth had spent the night and where Garrick was run ming into danger, If he had not al- ready fallen into it. And he must get there first.
 He tore out of the apartment, grabbed the first taxi rode only a 'ew blocks, dismissed him down the street.
 AS he sped down the block. he could see car in front of Gerard's. Then man ran across under the Ire light Dick quickened. He saw n the shadow two men struggling md a third creeping toward them

 But at the moment when it seemed hat each was getting the upper land of his man. couple of others an on. Evidently they had been railing him from Garrick's, where hey must have been watching. The fight of the four now swung ntirely against Garrick and Dick.
 From the Avenue whence had {, ome the new assalants, now came a ( uick scury of feet. A whistle. Some { me rapped as with a bickory stick on l he curb making hollow echoes.
 The four fled. |, The newcomers hauled Garrick l nd Dick unceremoniously to their ' eet. You're under arrest!" One of I hem flashed badge. Saw you ( ome out of the cellar of the Inner 'ircle last night. Also you were on hat roof tonight"
 Garrick looked at the badge. They yere revenue enforcement men. He ulled his own card, issued by the of the State. There was
 moment of perplexity, then ex- lanations and apologies.
