CHAPTER III.
The Bandit.

Joseph Maillard's library was on the
ground floor OF the house; IL was a
sedate and stately room, and was in
variably shut off TO itself. Not even
tonight. of all nights, was IL thrown
open with the remainder OF the house.
Here Maillard summoned half II
dozen of his particular cronies and
friends. after the stroke OF midnight
had assured him that there was no
danger to be expected from the ban
dit. His o. was not among the num-
Der. The half dozen were nearly all
elderly men. and. with the exception
of joachim Fell, all We're men of promi-
nent affairs.
About the table grouped Maillard
and his guests. Maillard, standing be-
fore q small wall safe that flanked the
open hearth, lifted his silver goblet,
asteam with beads. The moment for
which he had been waiting was here /;
he launched his little thunderbolt with
an air of satisfied Importance.
my friends, l have a confession to
make !" he announced. "Today I re-
ceived a note from the Midnight Mas
quer stating that he would be with us
this evening. presumably at the hour
of midnight, his usual time"
These words brought an instant ST.
lence. The half-dozen men were
tense, watchful, astonished. But Mall
lard swung up his silver cup and
laughed gaily.
II took full precautions, gentlemen.
The hour OF danger is past, and the
notorious bandit has not arrived-or.

hands of the law So up with your

that safe or take the consequences ;
no more talk. now !"
The command cracked out like a
whiplash. With a shrug of helpless
ness the banker turned and fumbled
with the protrudlng knob Of the safe.
With one exception all eyes were fas-
tened upon this amazing Masquer.
The exception was joachim Fell. who,
suddenly alert and w~atchful, had
turned his attention to Maillard and
the safe, a keen speculation in his
gaze as though he were wondering
what that steel vault would produce.
All were silent. There was some
thing about this Midnight Masquer
that held them intently. Perhaps
some were inclined to think him a
Jester, n OF the party masqueradIng
