CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE

CHAPTER = IY-IHhtE
There are degrees and differ
snces in discomfort. While Tom
my Hazeldeane and Gun were ex
periencing one variety in thell
captivity x, in his comparative
liberty, was becoming famlllal
with another.
Five days ago Gun and Hazel
deane were descending from the
blue into something that seemed
to be ever bluer-and slnce theh
no word or sign had come from
them.
He was fully alive to the risks
they ran, and the duration OF the
silence was making him feel that
the worst must have happened.
Toni was another anxiety. He
knew how she felt toward her hus-
band, and the thought of the tfag-
edy of her as widoW-and with
himself, in a sense, responsible for
it--v as apt to keep him awake at
nights. This wa an experience he
was not used to where what he
would call 1.-The ordinary risks of
the game" were concerned.
He had been avoiding Toni-pur-
bosely, because he was really un
comfortable at the idea of meeting
her-another new sensation f r
HIM
But that evening he "a right
into her at Lady Oxted's-Where
he had to go on particular bust
ness. The countess was a very old
friend of his, and would always
ask anyone to her parties at his
request. This, at times, made a
very convenient rendezvous for
keeping in touch with some of his
people.
He saw Toni first in the crowded
ballroom. The expensive simpler
ty of her frock and the perfection
of her carriage made Toni dis
tinguished in any crowd. The mo-
ment he saw her x yielded to
c~owardice, and began to take COW
er. But she, too, had set him, and
deity intercepted his move.
You were trying to avoid me-"
she said.
"Noncense, my dear, you're i'm
agining things!" He met her gaze
steadily with the lie, and noticed
that, beautiful and night-blue as
ever, her eyes held anxiety.
why were you trying to avoid
me?" she persisted, and now anxi-
ETY. tinged her voice, too.
Il have already told you. I
wasn't"
She ignored his protests.
Has anything happened to
Gum"
'.No-not that I know Of" He
net her eyes quite squarely this
time. They seemed to be search
ing the inmost places of his mind.
well, Toni, when you married
Gun you knew you were marrying
d secret agent"
''Oh! I knew all right, x; the
trouble is, l never realized" she
sighed. Il know it's no use asking
you where he is?"
mot a Bit" x tried, not too
successfully, a careless smile.
For one thing, I don't exactly
know myself"
But you're anxious about some
thing-about HIM. Why?"
x knew her mettle. 1t was best
to be frank with her-or, at any
rate, as frank as possible.
Il should like some news of
him" he admitted.
Any reason why he should not

s"Oh, Lord, yes-several! Last
time 1 heard he said he didn't
know when he could get in touch
again"
All" She seemed to be think
ing. In the c%learness of her eyes
there was a far-away look. Then
She sighed again, but this time
with relief, and exclaimed: He's
all right-as yeti"
rs he? Well, I'm glad to heal
it-but how the deuce do you
know"
She laughed low, c~ontralto
note that was very pleasing to his
ear.
"Oh, 1 know! Or rather, I should
know if anything vas really wrong
with him! I've been horribly anx-
ious, but I think it was YOUR

Cazelton shrugged. His attitude
was depressed.
Don't seem to get very far.
Men come and go - apparently
without passports. They come by
motorboat - land up the creek
there. But I've definitely estab
lished one thing-that fellow Wat
son is well in it."
The girl leaned forward in her
chair, interrupting eagerly:
you mean Ivor Watson, OF
Grosvenor place."
And the Nest, Chenham marsh
es," said Cazelton.
That's the man! Yes, you're
quite right-he's in it up to the
neck. P. has sent me there sew

well, when they land, the e.
er-immigrants go straight to the
Nest. They 60 inland then, so
far as I'm concerned, they never
come out again." put in Cazelton,
glummly. I've stood out there all
night, soaked with t h inferna,
mist, and chilled to the bone, lay
ing up a store of rheumatism for
my old age that'll keep me very
busy, and they've never emerged
from that confounded place again,
some nights later, I find them en-
barking at the creek and going off
in that COMPOUNDED motor b o a t.
What puzzles me is-What do they
do there? What object can they
serve by staying at the Nest all
the time?"
Il can tell you something about
that" interpolated x. II had a
fellow go right through the place
the other day. He was supposed
to be a water company's inspec
tor. There wasn't a soul in the
place except the servants - and
only two of them!"
well, I'm damned!" exclaimed
Charles.

gested Coral. Can you describe

said! BY the way, hang on for a
moment-I want you to do some
thing for mel"
A girl approached them-a slim,
graceful creature with flame-col-
ored hair and a shimmering green
gown. She was not beautiful, but
there was something about her
that attracted Toni.
She smiled at x, and bowed
slightly. Would have passed on,
but X intercepted her:
"Just a moment, Coral. l want
to introduce you to my friend,
Mrs. Cotton. This is Miss Merri-
dew, a-friend of mine"
Greetings, and then they stood
in a little group, CASUAL chatting.
x said, in a low voice:
This is what I want you to do
Toni. Charles Cazelton is here
somewhere, or will be very soon.
l want you to keep in touch with
Miss MerrideW until you run him
to earth. Then l want you to intro
duce them. Coral, I want you to

when it's over, get him to take
you to the smoke room. | shall be
there, and we can get together"
Both the girls acquiesced and,
after a few moments, X left them.
Half an hour later, when Gael
ton and the girl with the flame
colored hair strolled into the
smoke room, they saw x chatting
to another man in a distant corn~.
He saw them at once, excused
himself, and came across to meet
them.
Nice to see YOU he greeted
them. How are you, C~harles?'
I'VE can get a drink here" said
And also comparative seclu-
sion. We'll sit here, l think!' With
a quick glance around to assure
himself that there was no cover
for eavesdroppers. He neatly inter-
cepted a footman and ordered
drinks, then sat down.
Nov" he began. LAS it hap
pens, you two are hunting on the
same trail, so we al have a
three-cornered chat. We might be
able to do a little linking up. How

CONGRESSIONAL
COMMUNICATIONS MUST
BEAR WRITER'S NAME

On numerous occasions The Repub-
llcan is obliged to inform contributors
that all letters must bear the names Of
the writer's of items mailed or turned
into the news office in order to in
sure publication.
Many times there is received at the
office personal items, accounts of we'd
dings, parties, etc, but there is no
name of the writer signed to the ar
ticle or no way Of determining if the
matters stated are true.
1t is necessary that all communica-
tions, other than those received from
our regular correspondents bear the
name of the writer, not necessarily
for publication, but as an evidence OF
good faith that the matters contained
therein are authentic, and not sent
in merely for a joke or for the purpose
Of humiliating an innocent party.
Recently these unsigned items are
becoming more numerous and, Of
course, they are consigned to the
waste basket.
The Republican invites news items
at all times, but we again urge all
who contribute to its columns to sigr
their names to the letters or articles
sent in for publication.

lotted to the New Deal $S,219, 1893, 227
for national defense, of which $685.

appropriations and authorizations
by Congress between January 3, 1910,
and June %, 1910, aggregated more
than $20,000,000,000. Roughly, the ex-
penditures made and authorized were
divided fifty fifty between peace
time New Deal spending and spending
for national defense.

Congress has not cut down unnec-
