much of the brutality of man. Delo

“You gave me $10 yesterday.”
Lysander John looked over hi* p*

absent-mindedly began to fumble lx-
the pocket where he kept his cash.
“I am prepared,” he heard his wi£F>
say, “to account for every cent 1 hav**

Lysander John was deciding that r
he were Wilteon' he would let the
Mexicans fight it out. and was Inter
rupted in the soothing thoughts o
how Lysander John Appleton, Presi
dent of the United States, had, by hip
masterly brain, restored peace to our
warring neighbor by the following
monologue:
“Ice man, 10 cents: 35 cents for

But she read no more, for Lysander
John, reaching across the table, tor?/
the list from her hand and stamped
on the floor.
“For heaven 1 * sake,” he cried, “wh>
tell me all that? What do I care hov

“If the men,” lie grumbled to Mm*
self a little later when alone In hlf

“Don’t wonder Sure you’d been stuck
on him—except for tlie truth of that
poetry gas about ‘a little less’—an’ there
Is & block between you!”
Kitty pondered on aloud—putting Into
words some of her own possibilities for
finer womanhood—the fineness she and
circumstances had starved and battered
about and beaten Into subjection—the
womanhood whose only revenge was a
subtle stirring now and then a puasle-
ment to KJtty, who scarcely realised
how different she might have been!
‘First. It whs to get square—and I did!
Then—you sec—he thinks I’m qood.

sometimes It didn't seem ao funny—

and then broke into a laugh that grad

“Come on! Come on here and now

Dick’s mirth was very genuine.

trail across the window sill and out Into
the deep gloom of the night. And to
the tnan on guard outside lie called:
"Sergeant, keep everyone sway from
that window.”
Now was I^arry Hoi brook’s chance.
Intermittent flashes of light showed
that Dempster was making a careful
search outside the house. Holbrook
determined to make as careful a search
of the room. Keeping a wary eye
on Donnell, who was sturdily stand
ing guard at the window, he searched
rapidly about the desk and Its vicinity.
There were papers which he must not
allow to rustle ever so slightly—there
was that pitiful little roll of treasury
bills, letters, typed briefs, but no clew’
A little moan of Impatience and fear
threatened to buret from his heart and
wing Its betraying path across his lips.
Holbrook’s eyes flashed and his Ups
tightened. He straightened up, alert
and business-like, and surveyed the
whole room hurriedly—then he paused
In front of the desk—something arrested
hi* attention—something was striving
to penetrate hla consciousness.
He suddenly became aware of Flagg's
clenched left hand—there was somethin*
sinister and intent In th*t clutching
white flst—the tense hand of the dead
man seemed alive with awful meaning
Holbrook darted one quick look at
Donnell. Then he caught those cold
fingers In his own warm grasp. The
clutch of the dead man did not relax.
Judson Flagg seemed to have carried
with him beyond the grave the power
to hold whet he desired—to demand
his price. Donnell coughed. Holbrook
quickly dropped that resisting dead hand
and began fingering the roll of bills
with a show of Interest. There was
quiet again. And again Holbrook took
that clammy dead hand in his. He
pried at the fingers with grim determi
nation. They yielded their secret.
‘They were stringm - you. Chief." said Holbrook clutched dlzxlly at the deak

‘•(Had you * came along. Captain,"
said the Chief with hie strong, steady,
eure-of-Itself smile. The man was of

gray his hair, firm his mouth and Jaw

man to whom right was absolute, and a
criminal-A criminal! And Into his
sturdy power Aline Graham must soon
come when once he had read the dan
gerous evidence of that room from
which she had fled less than an hour
ago.
A crisp interest In criminals and
criminology was all that showed on
Holbrook's face as he answered with
the assumption of ease that had carried
him through More battles and the con
flict with the Russian bear.
"This ought to be an Interesting case.

He had fairly been holding his breath.
He wanted to shout and exult, but he
controlled himself. He gave one wrv
glance at the emerald brooch, put that
dangerous bit of evidence In the pocket
of his dinner coat, shut Flagg’s fingers
back into their gripping position and
then carefully wiped off his hands on
the black cloth of his suit. Even in the
big moments of life the prejudices of
our own youth and the youth of our
race remain Holbrook had not fan

he wiped off the feeling of that contact

And now having satisfied his boyish
squeamishness the soldier looked about
for the next task he must perform. He
was alert and purposeful In every taut
nerve. The man who with daredevil
recklessness would risk his life for a
cause of freedom that was not his own
must show the utmost cold caution in
protecting that cause. DUTCH DUGAN
WOULD AID NICARAGUA—ALINE
GRAHAM WAS CAPTAIN HOL
BROOK’S CAUSE!
Larry Holbrook had two distinguish
ing marks of his race—flexible lips that
for owed h!s mood and drooped or
twitched quickly from smile to disguis
ing indifference when his Celtic emotion
threatened to betray him, and twinkling
hazel eyes that carried In them the
smiles and sighs, the tender wistful
ness and the strength of his own Isle
of Mists. Set over his eyea were
straight, heavy brows that had a way
of liftihg at the corners like a French
man’s hands.
The lips were fixed In determination
now—Larry Holbrook would fight. The
brows were set in straight lines of
strength and beneath their battlements
his eyes were half closed. They wore
the expression tney had learned to take i
when he searched for places for an |
enemy hid behind the cactus or the
mesa or the shifting dtines of treacher
ous sand
Back of those eyes plan and deter
mination were forming. But was it
love or chivalry that spurred him now?
The tin box Flagg had not found
time to lock in his safe caught Hol
brook's eye. He crossed to It quickly,
picked it up and tried in deft silence to
open it—and then Donnell’s voice star
tled him: f
"How many times have I got to tell
you to stand back there?”
The voice rang out in the grim still
ness—some venturing soul for whom the
room of violent death held a morbid
charm skulked off in the night.
At the sound of the voice, Holbrook
had set the stage of his own actions
with deft quickness. He idly shifted
the box back of him. smacked his lips
speculatively to cover any noise he had
made and gazed in a general clew
searching way about the room. But
Donnell was still Intent on dangers from
outside.
Holbrook moved with rapid-fire action
now. He went hastl’y over to his top
coat and put the japanned dispatch box
in the sleeve On his face was an ex
pression of frantic bafflement that was
slowly turning to anguish. But with
lightning play a smile illuminated his
