he was not too surprised. He
just decided to 81 on working,
to try to do his best.
She'd get in touch with him,
he felt, and he might have a
chance to persuade her to come
back. She'd probably gone home
to her mothers, up in Yonkers.
A rest of a few days would do
her good.

Hargreaves grew haggard, and
gray started to show at his tenn

passed along to the limbo Of the
days that can't come back.
He kept the little flat. He
kept it meticulously clean and
neat, doing the housework when

ket Court was a full one. One
case in particular had drawn an
assignment of a photographer
by Bill Hargreaves keen-eyed
city editor. It had to do with
a raid of the night before on
the apartment of q singer in a
Broadway cabaret. Four girls
had been taken in the raid. And
two men, said to be brokers, had
been members Of the party.
The testimony went before
the magistrate. The police had
been called on complaint Of
neighbors. They'd gone in
through a bedroom window.
They'd found the night club

Hargreaves went out Of the
courtroom. He waited behind
a pillar in the corridor. AS the
girl came out, discharged by
the judge, he pulled his flash.
Even as the flare illumined her
face he recognized her.
"Bill," she almost Shrieked,

He shook his head.

rushed for the office.
The girl, watching the late

And when Bill Hargraves came
home from the office, she had
his favorite dishes smoking hot,
in the oven.

he took Tommy by the arm
and led him down the hall.
Behind him Tommy could hear
the fire bite and sizzle into the
metal. cyclone Tim was fitting
on his murderous brass knucks.
Tommy clenched his fists, his
blood coursing through his
veins hot and fast.

clone Tim pressed into his
hand the cold metal of O pistol.
Tommy stuffed 1t in his outer
coat pocket.
"Oke!" came a voice, and
Tommy turned to see the huge
steel door swing open. It had
been a matter of seconds to
him. Cyclone Tim rushed in
first, with Tommy close at his
heels. They faced three men
two toughs on either side of
old Pete the ex-convict-and
in whose hands were five gats.
The guns spat fire and lead.
Tommy felt something touch
his leg but he sprang forward
upon one Of the two bigger
fellows and they fell to The
floor In a mad tussle.
Tommy had the man by the
wrist Of his gun hand and
they rolled over on the soft,
carpeted floor, breaking chair
legs and overturning tables.
The tough was cursing and
putting all his strength in an
effort to free his right hand
from the wise of Tommy's
mighty left. Now Tommy had
him on his back, his knee in
his chest, planting blow after
blow on his head and face.
But the other only grunted as
each thud landed.
Suddenly, before he knew
what had happened, the man
twisted his body and sent
Tommy spinning. He lost his
grip on the others wrist and
as he fell he saw the man take
aim. But just then there was a
terrific crack as a chair crashed
on the gunman's skull and as
he fell Cyclone Tim sent his
huge foot into his face.
Alice Safe
Come on. let's get out o.
here!" growled Cyclone Tim,
lifting Tommy to his feet.
Tommy saw, amid the wreck
age Of the drawing room two
other unconscious figures,
sprawled out on the rug.
But Alice-where's Alice?"
he questioned, looking around
anxiously.

was no pain. But he knew he
had been hit.
One Of Cyclones men was

picked him UP and slung him
over his shoulder. The elevator
stopped at the handsome lobby.
A Gordon of gangsters, who had
been herding in a corner all
those with innocent business in
the building who had come in
during the affair, escorted the
three to the curb.
The Cyclone turned his

boys, who carried him into one

 The bridegroom, late in reaching here for the wedding. explained that he had come from England on the Mauretania which had docked in New York somewhat behind sched- ule.
 Reports from the British consuls of New York and Boston were that Sir Williams name did not appear in either the British Who's Who or in Burke's peerage and furthermore his name was not included in the MaWretania's passenger list.
 Mir. and Mrs James C. Buffum, parents of the bride, asserted that Sir William inherited his title from his father, Sir John Bramwell, after an older brother had died. They said they were not surprised that the bridegroom's name did not ap- pear in British naval records because Sir William was on the reserve list as a member Of the royal navy.
