Fulfilling the Comnact.

There was yet another person who
was both puzzled and troubled in re-
gard to the Nest, and that person
was Bingham Harvard, one time alias
the Night Wind.
For Bing had seer the face at the
window the instant he stepped his
foot upon the bath-house platform,
and he knew that the face was not
Katherine's.
It had been Belknap's face, of
course, and Belknap could not have
found entry to the Nest without the
personal assistance of Katherine,
therefore she was hiding him.
Try as he might, he could find only
n possible solution of the problem,
and that was that Belknap had sue
ceeded in so working upon RATHER
ines sympathies that she had been
prevailed upon to help him escape.
That Katherine-his wife-Lady Kate
of the Police-peerless and fearless
Katherine-was afraid of the man
and had been forced through fear OF
him to do what she had done, Harvard
did not for a moment believe. "And,-

THIS STARTS THE STORY.

A house party is being given
at the country home of Rather
inc and Bingham Harvard.
Among the guests is one Con-
rad Belknap. Katherine discov-
ers him cheating at cards. Con-
WINGED that he is ~concealing his
real identity and that he is there
for some Interior purpose, Kath-
crime determines to ferret out
the mystery. She intercepts a
telephone call of Belknap's to a
woman confederate named Rob-
erta, and, in turn, speaks to the
woman. Realizing that he is
suspected by Katherine, Belknap
threatens TO accuse of a crime
her brother Roderick Maxwilton,
who is believed to be dead. Bing-
ham Harvard becomes suspicious
of Belknap and Katherlne's attl-
tude toward him. Roberta ar
rives on the scene under the
mes father suspects that Bel
knap's real name is Belding. A
Belding was once hanged for
numbering his wife. A child
survived. A stranger, with a
seer on his face, has come to the
house. He is known as Car
ruthers. Belknap suspects him
of being a secret service agent.
At midnight Katherine hides
Belknap in a secluded lodge,
called The Nest. At the same
hour an engagement is being
kept by Carruthers and Roberta.
Roberta c~Onfesses to Harvard
that she is the divorced wife of
Belknap, and that he has COM
0elled hoy to become a partici-
9ant W. l lin in his areer of
rhine. Ii admits that he is in
reality re Cranshaw Bedding,
rs has been suspected by the au-
,horities. She ~confesses her love
or a stranger, CaTruthers, q man
with . scar on his face, who has
come 90 the house in the guise of
a secret service operative. Car
ruthers is thought by the others
fuses to divulge his real name.
She says he has been falsely sus-
pected of crime. Belknap is
hidden by Katherine in a seclud-
ed lodge called the Nest, from
which he is unable to make his
escape. Katherine makes a Sc
cret visit to him.

The Lady of the Night Wind

at once to wait for Katherine, as she
had directed. There were duties that
he had to perform first, and SO it was
a little more than an hour afterward
when he entered it, and there discov-
cred Roderick awaiting him.
Roderick took a step forward and
stretched out both hands. julius
grasped them with his own, and for a
time the two were ~speechless before
one another, and, oddly enough, it
seemed as if ROderick was the more
greatly moved of the two.
1t was Julius who spoke first.
"Mr. Rody! Nh. Roddy! Why, Mis-
tub Rod-dy, it don't seem morn'n the
day befo' Yesterday since / was totin'
yo' 'roun' with these OF hans uh

Il suttinly did, Mr.. Roddy."
"Then you never believed that
was dead and buried, did you?"
Il knOwed you wasn't, sub. Mis-
Kitten told me-"
He stopped, and when he spoke
again his voice had a note of stern
| discipline in it, as if he were, in re-
atty, speaking to the lad of years
/ agone, and Gliding him.
"Why haven't you told Miss Kit
ten about yourself, sir? Didn't you
know that she's been eatin' her pool

yeahs? Why, sir, only just a little
minute ago l was talkin' to her, an il
was all l could do to keep myself
from blurtin' it all out. Why AIM

"Never mind about that, Julius.

Eyes, sir"
"Now, julius, l want to question
you on another matter"
"Yes, SIR" Julius was instantly
on his guard, for he guessed wha
the next question might be, and HI
had no idea of b~etraying Katherine
confidence, even to her brother.
Il have been searching, Julius, an;
my men have been searching all da,
all the time since Belknap disap
peared. They have not been able t
obtain a trace of the man."

"One of the windows has been ur

Julius, and l saw somebody peerin

"Then you saw your own sister, M

/ that. It's my profession to kno.

he was more than EVER convinced TIL
he was correct about it.
The Bozeman courier. (Bozeman, Mont.) 1919-1954, 1922-10-25

She had obtained possession of the
Eye of Nadia, and had concealed it,
without breaking any of her promises
to Belknap in any sense of the word.
That evening was not a pleasant
one outside, after dinner. Fog had
blown in from the ocean, and a gen.
tie rain, without wind, was falling.
The guests remained indoors. The
absence of Belknap was commented
on, and regretted. The atmosphere,
even within the house, was sur
charged with unrest, and the members
of the party, one after another, dis
covered that they had letters to write
or books to read, or complained Of
headaches, or otherwise found ex-
cuses to seek their several rooms
early.
Bing was himself among the first
to find one, and go, and he took Clan
cy with him. Carruthers disappeared
500 after dinner. Betty yawned sew
eral times without concealment, and
departed, and so on, until Katherine,
a little past 10, found herself alone
with Roberta-and the trouble was
that Roberta seemed inclined to more
condolences; seemed eager for an
other heart to heart talk with Kath-
crime. But Katherine found a way
to avoid even that.
Roberta" she said when they were
alone, Il wish very much that you
would take the daguerreotype of Mrs
Clancy's great-grandmother that you
still nave in your possession to my
father. You will find him in the H.
bTary, reading. l want you to ask
him to help you to work out the puz.
zle Of your likeness to her. He car
do it."
Thus Katherine was free to go t
the Nest whenever she chose-anC
she decided to go at once.
Would she have been disturbed, d.
you suppose, if she had guessed tina
her husband, having taken Tom Clan
cy into his confidence and secured hi
aid, had taken Tom with him, ant
gone already to . post of observation
whence any persons who entered 0
departed from the Nest could b.
seen?
Would she have been disturbed i
she had known that Carruthers an
several Of his men had drawn a cor
don around the house and grounds 0
inquest through which, as they con
fidently believed, no person coul
penetrate?

AND HERE 1T CONTINUES.

When, ten minutes later, he lift
ed his head, he uttered a sharp eX-
ciamation of establishment, and
sprang to his feet.
Straight ahead Of him, at the far
end Of thte big room, and just above
a platform that extended at the top
of a short flight OF steps, The after
noon sun was streaming into the
chalet through a wide eXpanse OF
plate glass window from over which
the steel shutters had been magic
ally withdrawn.
He knew what had happened. The
book that he had thrown-and he haC
no idea where it had struck-had nit
against and operated the mechanism
OF the shutter.
With an exclamation Of joy h
started toward the uncovered window

He lifted it. examined it attentive
", worked at the knob on top, found
it secure, tried the ferrule and loos-
ened it as far as it would unscrew.
Then he tried. the knob again and
opened it.
He turned white to the lips when
he discovered the object wrapped in
foil and tissue inside. He extracted
it. He held it worshipfully in the
hollow Of his hand and stared at it.
His other hand moved as if to unwind
the wrappings, and stopped. He put
the object that was wrapped in foil
and tissue into his pocket.
He went out of the music room like
a flash. 1t was wonderful how quick
ly he could move when he wanted to
like a cat, or any other predatory
animally-naturally.
The two watchers lost sight of him
then, and could not follow. They
had thought that he would leave the
house by the way he entered it
but Cranshaw Belding, otherwise
Conrad Belknap, was far too wise fol
that sort of thing.
"We have lost him." Tom Clancy
said.

The Wisdom Of Lady Kate.

While he looked he saw Carruth-
ers step out upon the platform of the
%boathouse, and behind him came Har-
ward, and he also saw that Carruth-
ers, as if he had already observed the
unshuttered window of the chalet,
made some remark to Harvard which
called his attention to it.
At the same time Katherine was
working out her own plan. First she
must see Madame Savage.
Madame" she said, when she had
been admitted to the lady's room,
Il read a story long ago that was
called The Jewel Worshipper.' It has
given me an idea for the entertain

ments by what he would have done
himself under like circumstances, and
his ideas were well assumed. He
went to the rose bower, from which
he could watch the side entrance.
Belknap appeared at last, moving
cautiously. He darted among the
shrubbery, and kept himself among

had seen him lift his head and point,
as a hunting dog points, in the direc-
ton of his course.
Harvard caught sight of him again
as he went out upon the platform at
the boathouse.

BeIknap's Prepared Getaway.

1t was exactly IL minutes, accord

after Katherine entered the Nest,
when Conrad Belknap came out of it.
He descended the first steps swift

ing path among the boulders, could
be seer again in his descent of the

he started rapidly toward the house.
He encountered nobody. The house
