when you want 1t to-"
He addressed the remark to the dry
and unrespOnsive soil. Billy's attitude
at the moment was unusual. He was
close to the footpath along which he
had wheeled the Sphinx, after the en-
counter with the motorcycle thieves on
the night of the burglary.
That event was now many days old,
yet no rain had fallen In the meantime
and here and there the track of the
Sphinx's tires was family visible In
the dried mud-to anyone who had un-
usually good eyes.
"If they've got Scotland Yard
sharp down here now," reflected Billy
"and he goes over the ground, it's just
possible he might see what that fool
Inspector at Stanhoe never tumbled to.
That there were two motorcycles, and
not one, at the place where Jack the
Climber got ditched. If they were to
track up the Sphinx now 1t would be
mighty awkward. They'd soon con
meet her with Aimee and me. But
guess It's an outside chance"
The slight impression Of tire mark,
little to the right of the path, caught
his eye 1t had passed over soft
mole hill, and was clearly defined.
Billy paused, and inspected 1t with a
new interest. The fashion of his
countenance changed; he went down
on hands and knees. and looked very
closely indeed.
Snakes - exclaimed Billy. He rose,
and quartered the ground carefully for
a considerable distance In either d.
rection. The ground was too hard to
show any continuous track. But mole
hills were plentiful and some way far
ther on he found another one. also
showing the print of tire.
"It's the same. And not the Sphinx's
tire. by a milel" said Billy. knitting his
brow. "This one was steel-studded."
With growing perplexity he made a
close examination of the soil, and pres
emily discovered other traces. There
