Oestler, whose face, suddenly, had
grown very white.
"The Panther" he said calmly.
She'll be putting boat ashore!"
The establishments controlled by
Yuan Hee See, wherever they might
be, had one notable characteristic;
there was secret entrance and exit.
In the case of the Cafe Magrabi. there
were two such entrances and exits.
One opened upon narrow lane at the
back into an old house which adjoined
while British and American agents
had watched the cafe, Eileen was taken
into this house and offered for sale
When at about two o'clock, Dawson
Haig arrived, the dingy shutters of the
Cafe Magrabi were closed.
The party accompanying Haig had
these shutters down in a trice. Haig
leading, they dashed into the dirty
cafe. Where there had been a mating
curtain leading to the short corridor
beyond, a stout wooden door now
showed. They broke 1t down. This
was the sound that, mingled with a
gurgling shrek, had formed Eileen's
last waking memories.
Haig dashed down three wooden
steps. "Eileen!" he cried.
He was on his knees beside a pa
thetic white figure, half draped by a

furious anger, he drew 1t more closely
over her and eagerly bent his head

THANK God!'
Haig gave one last glance at the
girls pale face before racing up the
steps upon the other side of the room
The door was barred The sergeant
hurled himself at it, and the first i'm
pact of his two hundred pounds did
the job.
Dawson Haig entered a smaller room
with an iron-barred window. 1t was
empty. There was narrow staircase
leading out of 1.-THE very staircase
up which old Hassan had run not five
minutes before. There was an open door,
disguised door very cunningly con-
trived. low down in one wall. Below
brick steps.
upstairs, sergeant! Take three
men! Send three more after me"
Haig, ducking his head, raced down
into the short tunnel which led to the
house of the potter. He found himself
in an empty lobby. ran up a wide
staircase, and into a saloon with shut
tered windows. One lamp burned
above that divan upon which Eileen
had been submitted to the Judgment
of the chief eunuch of His Serene
Highness. He crossed to door ap-
preached by steps, and pushed 1t open
cautiously.

20 Lord!" he cried, "for this one
wee deed in sinful life-spare me
a grain o. mercy!"
The inhabitants Of that nameless
town dominated by the palace of Yuan
Hee See, willing servants of the mas
ter on the hill, had flown at the mo-
ment that the battleship had showed
her nose over the horizon.
The palace surpassed anything which
Lieutenant Markham had seen or i'm
agined. The female inhabitants, hud-
died in cushioned corners, were star
Ing wide-eyed at the intruders.
Lieutenant Markham pressed on
through more and more extravagant
apartments and suddenly found
muscular arms about his neck and
fearful dark eyes looking up into his
own!
"Oh, thank God, l see you'll" cried
Celeste. But tell me quickly-is she
safe? Is she safe?-the little girl
Eileen-who was here!"
"She means Miss Kearney, sir" said
one of the party. "The American lady
who disappeared in Port Said"
Lieutenant Markham, looking into
the quivering face, suddenly under
stood. II am sorry" he said, truly
sorry. But I have no news of her.
But, I think" as the woman's mas
sive figure seemed to become limp
"she is safe"
"One of the right sort, SIR" said the
former speaker. "She could give us
few tips"
Il can give you no tip, my FRIEND"
Celeste replied sorrowfully. "All
know is what happen inside these
walls" She waved eloquent hands.
"But in that room there" she point
ed dramatically to narrow door
paneled in dull gold-"in that room
there this morning, something hap
pen. 1 think-a good thing"
When the locked door was broken
down a Mortified group stood on the
threshold of room entirely paneled
in gold lacquer. Lying across divan
covered with black cushions, delicate
ivory body cleaning through the fine
texture of silken robe, lay Orange
Blossom-her downward hung head

drenched it.
"Good Cd sir!" came a hoarse
whisper. "Some wild animal has

"Darling!' Dawson Ha1g whispered.
ooh, my darling! Thank God!" Eileen
opened her blue eyes and looked up at
him-wondering. Then, with a slow
smile, she twined her arms about his
neck and drew his head down to her
breast.
Dawson Haig held her tightly. He

Cause Not Known
Cause of the fire remained un.
known today, but the rapid
spread of the flames was blamed
on the highly inflammable
drapes about the dance floor and
the tissue paper decorations.
Officials blamed the trapping
of the 100 guests on the lack
of exits.
There was but one door leading
from the dance floor. Windows
were screened or covered by the
heavy drapes. The door opened
inward and when the hysterical
patrons surged against it they
were trapped.
Among the guests were num-
ber of Northwestern University

among the victims.

"The world is on the verge Of
q new war. 1t might start at
any time. It will be far worse
than any war befOre-mOre men
killed, more destruction. And
1t will be q war that will involve
the whole world"
Vladimir Alexandrovich Burzin
puffed on long Russian cigarette
meditatively.
On the diplomatic list of the
State Department he is recorded
as military attache Of the Russian
Embassy. The division of protocol,
however, lists him as a lieutenant
general. And back in Russia he
is known as comrade-commander-
of.an-army.
Has Battle Scars
A young man, BurZin is re-
garded as one Of the most brilliant
military men in the world. It
was Napoleon who said that every
private carries a marshal'S baton
in his knapsack. This is true Of
General Burzin, for with no mil
itary background he rose from a
private in the Red Guard to his
present rank.
For five years, between 1917 and
1922, he was constantly engaged
in fighting. He carries the scars
Of a machine gun bullet received
while opposing the Kolchak troops,
and a sabre wound received in
,hand-to-hand fighting with Cos
sacks in the Ural Mountains.
Pointing to a map of the world
on his office wall, he said:
"What new methods of de-
StructiOn war will bring we can
only conjecture. But we know
that the technicians of every
nation have been working for
years, developing new fighting
equipment.

Of wars. The Russian-JapaneSe
conflict in 1905 produced the

"Then the World War brought
out tanks and airplanes, gas

greater than ever.
"NOW as we look forward to
q new war, we know that there
will be other developments to

Look at what has already

been developed with o much

ARTILLERY has been greatly
improved. During the World
War the 75mm gun was one
of the greatest weapons. Then
it had a range Of seven or
eight miles.
To-day, through the use Of

20 miles, and the rate Of fire
has been increased.
