Then Pearl John graSped Bob's
arms from behind and, after a
few minutes tussle. the two had
him securely held. Snatching a
long silken cord that held back
a curtain, Pearl John looped 1t
about Bob's wrists. Another cord
quickly tied his ankles and the next
minute Bob was being carried to
his room where he was thrown on
the bed. As de Forest fumbled with
the key TO lock the room Bob raised
hts head to speak but quick blow
from Ramons fist knocked him
back. His head struck sharply
against the wooden bed post and
Immediately he felt himself sinking
down, down into darkness.
How long he lay there, helpless,
Bob never knew. He awoke to find
cold wind blowing across his face
and when he moved the realization
came that he was no longer tied. He
could move his hands and feet.
Slowly he sat up and, as he did 80,
the severed cords dropped TO the
floor. Someone had come in through
the window and cut his bonds while
he lay unconscious. But who? Bob
did not debate this question long,
but got to his feet and tried to
think what he must do next.
If he could escape from the house
there might be q chance that he
would meet up with someone on
the road down the canyon who
might help him. 1t was foolish to
risk another encounter with de For
est and Ramon.
He was positive now that Pearl
John was far from being the ami
able host he had seemed, and it
was not beyond possibility that
Ramon Vasquez was, in some
way, connected with the de Forest
tragedies. But Betty she was
the one Bob was really concerned
about. If he could find her he
would gladly leave Thunder Mesa
TO anyone who cared TO have it.
He shook his head to rid 1t Of the
frightful buzzing noise in his ears
and dashed cold water over his
face until the blood came tingling
to the skin.
Now he felt more fit to try 10
get through that open window
and fight his way, II necessary, to
the outside world where the law
could lend hand. Putting on O.
warm coat and cap, he carefully
lowered himself to the patio out
side, being careful that no one
should SEQ him. Then he edged
away from the house in the dark
ness and started toward the road
that led down the canyon.

CHAPTER XXI

That night at dinner there was
another vacant place at the table. II
was Betty this time who was miss
ing. Aagelique told OF the converse
ton she had had with Betty earlier
in the day, adding that the other
girl had gone to lie down, which
was weirdly true. At the very mo-
ment she said this Betty was lying
a helpless prisoner, In one Of the
small rooms near the underground
kiya. Angelique's revenge was COM
plete. She could afford to seem ex-
tremely anxious about Betty's disap-
poarance now.

meal was finished followed Pear
John and Ramon into the library

the Japanese army out Of Shantung,
and when he addressed the Rotary In

City the delegates vowed that they

words.
DR.. Wang's first official appearance
In Washington was in 1919, when he
was sent to interview President Wilson
on the Shantung problem. China
wanted Shantung, formerly held by
Germany, for herself. Japan wanted
1t. too. The negotiations continued
until 1922 when. as a result OF the
diplomatic operations Of DR.. Sao-ke

TINE busiest Embassy In Washing
ton is the Chinese, presided
over by Ambassador Chenting
Thomas Wang, Phi Beta Kap-
pa, whose drinking capacity is almost
legendary despite the fact that he got
his start in political and public life
as Y. M. c. A. secretary in his
native land. DR.. Wang is also a
master of old-fashioned oratory and
for years he was governor of the
81st District of Rotary International,
including China, Hong Kong and the
Philippines.
Gables come to the Chinese Embassy
"a hours a day relating the progress
of war. The Ambassador has been
making an average of two speeches
week since the Japanese drive be-
gan. A rain of letters, some offering
advice on how to combat the invader,
many sending money in sums from
fifty cents to $500 to finance Chinese
defense, descends on the Embassy, and
every voluntary adviser must be an
swered no matter how Impractical
his suggestion, and every donor must
be thanked.

more inches of type than Dr. Wang.
SIS, whose English is fluent because
he was educated at the University of
Michigan and at Yale To gain some
idea of his prominence and impor-
tance, 1t might be wise to quote from
the Who's Who:
Actively identified himself with the
revolution in 1911, serving as Presi-
dent of the Senate in the first parlia-
ment and subsequently as Premier,
Minister Of Foreign Affairs, Minister
of Finance, China's chief delegate to
the Paris Peace Conference, director
general of the Shantung Rehabilita-
ton Commission, director-general of
preparations for Sino-Japanese nego-
tiations, director-general of the Lung
hal Railway; is member of the Gen.
trail Executive Committee Of the Kuo-'
mintang. member of the Central Po-
litical Council and Chairman Of its
Foreign Affairs Division; also presi-
dent Of the Chinese National Uni
versity, president of the Liu Ho Kou
Mining Co., president of National
Good Roads Association, president OF
Chinese Red Cross Society"
Buys Home for Family.
DIR. Wang arrived here May 26 Of
this year. He took one look at the
cramped Embassy at Nineteenth and
California streets and decided to buy
home in Cleveland Park, Twin Oaks,
high on grassy hill where he can
have some elbow room, his wife and
daughters can move about easily In
their native gowns and where his Chi
nese cook can prepare Oriental dishes
to the Ambassadors content. The
business Of diplomacy, however, is
still conducted at the old Embassy,
where now, because of the Sino-Japa-
nese conflict, more visitors are received
each day than at any diplomatic
headquarters in Washington.
When DR.. Wang was ordered to the
United States, one Of his hopes was
that he might have time to study ath-
letics in this country. He is deeply
interested in sports and headed the
Chinese delegation to the Olympics at
Berlin in 1896, the first set Of the
games China had participated In. He
likes to play tennis. but the more Sc
rious demands of wartime diplomatic
activity have interfered with his in
vestigation Of athletics.
However. busy days have not inter-

Yoshiwara agreed that he had met

DR.. Wang. though, does not let
shaoshin interfere with work. Last
week he spoke before the Philadelphia
Board of Trade on Democracy in
China" He addressed the National
Press Club in explanation Of Chinas
position in the Far Eastern conflict.
He made speech to the Cleveland
Park Club. He is on the 60 every
minute in order to enlist United States
sympathy for his country.

hopes here is that he can convince
the State Department it would be wise
for the United States to make the
same sort Of REIMBURSEMENT. (Coun-
tries enjoying exterratorial rights are
exempt from Chinese law)
DR.. Wang, a round, jolly man, who
dilutes his reading of weighty tones
with the Saturday Evening Post, likes
everything about America except
American food. He likes his meals
