MONDAY. MARCH 30. THE DA Y OF DA YS PROLOGUE. 'lt breaks the speed limit to smithereens.” That’s a candid opinion about this story. There may have been swifter tales, but not re-1 cently. It’s an aeroplane of a yarn, moving so fast that you lose your breath while you fol low it. But you don’t need any breath, anyway, because you forget about respiration with your eyes on reading of this kind. Every man has his day of days. Yours may have come and you may be swimming in the full tide of fortune. If so, read how P. Sybarite found his. If your own ship is still in the offing, you will enjoy learning how the little spunky red headed bookkeeper won a fortune and an heiress, foiled all his enemies and had some of the most amazing adven tures ever penned—all in less time than it takes the hour hand to round the clock dial twice. (Continued from Yesterday) “Call up that sanatorium; find out If Marian has arrived. If she has threaten with fire and sword,'and all that sort of thing, if they don’t release her—hand her over to me on demand If she isn’t, make ’em understand I'll dynamite the place if they let Hovetn ber bring her there and get away be fore I show up. Tell ’em to call In the police and pinch November on sight. And then get a lawyer and send him up there after me. And then set the police after November. Tell ’em you heard the shot and went down the lire escape to investigate what the trouble was. I'm off.” The door slammed on Peter as be wilderment— In the ball, savagely punching the elevator bell, I’. Sybarite employed the first part of an enforced wait to return the clip of cartridges to its chamber‘in the butt of Mrs. Incite 1 * pistol. As the elevator reached the street level t|iere sounded from n distance down the street a noise the like of which he had never before heard, a noise resembling more than anything else In his experience the almost si mnltaneous detonations of something like half a dozen firecrackers of sub cannon caliber.

Sybarite insisted irasci bly. “I've no time to waste. Get a move on you. man!" Rut ns lie spoke bis accents were blotted out by a repetition of that por tentous noise which hud saluted him a moment since llis eyes, veering inevitably toward the source of that uproar, found II quickly enough to see short, vicious Jets of flame licking out against the gloom of an open garage doorway near ly opposite the Hippodrome stage en trance —something like a hundred feet down the street. •‘(Jong fight." his man informed him briefly. “Ply cops cornered a bunch of 'em In November's garage”— “Whose garage?" "P.e.l November's! Guess you've beard of him?" the man pursued en gerly. "That's right —he runs his own garage—taxis for Dutch House souses ynnno"— "Wait!" 1’ Sybarite interrupted. "Let me get tills straight" Stimulated by tills news.

Midway Use Uauv open doorway to November's garage y;twi -<l forbidding ly, and in all the space that separated these two gatherings of spectators there were visible just three human figures, a uniformed patrolman and two plain clothes men. the former at a discreet distance, the two latter more boldly stationed and bolding revolvers tead.v for iuntuut employment. "I-'iy cops," the chauffeur named the By LOUIS JOSEPH VANCE two iu clTlSwo* « iwi,l ..., .. . •tickin’ around while you wiin iiis.tl an’ was wonderin' what they wit after when all of a midden I sees No vember duck up from the busetneii next door to the Monastery, and they tries to Jump him.

"Hut what do you suppose makes ’em keep that door open? You'd think”— “The way I figure it.” the chauffeur cut In, “Red’s plannln’ to make his getaway in a car. He's just waitin' till the goln’ looks good, and then he'll sail outa there like a streak of greuacd lightnln‘. Yuh wnntn he ready to duck, too, ’cause he'll come this way an’ keep guns goln' to prevent any body from hinderin’ him.” “Why tills way?

From the dark Interior of the be sieged gnrngo another automatic tint tered briskly; across the street a win dow fell In. “Look here—you come with me," said P. Sybarite suddenly, plucking Ids chauffeur by the sleeve. With a reluctant backward glance the man suffered himself to be drawn apart from the crowd. "How much nerve hare you got?" the little Irishman demanded. "Who-me? Why?” “I want to prevent tills getaway.” “Not for mine, friend." The chauf feur laughed scornfully. "I ain’t lost no Rod November gang!" “Will SI,OOO make you change your mind?" . "Lead me to the coin,” was the prompt decision. "Here, then!” P. Sybarite delved hastily into n trousers pocket and produced a hand ful of bills of large denominations. “There’s a S.VO bill to start with,” be rattled, stripping off the first that fell to bis lingers, “and here’s a him dred—no. here’s another five.” “In the uiltt.” the chauffeur stlpnlat ed simply, extending Ilia palm. “Elthei you're crazy or I am. but in the milt, friend, ami I'll run the car right lute that garage, ’f you say so." "Nothing so foolish ns that." P Sybarite handed over the two bills and put away the rest of his wealth. “Rut jump Into that car—and be ready to swing across the street and block ’em as they come.” “You’re on!” agreed the chnuffeui with emotion, carefully putting* hl> money away. “And a thousand more"—his courngi wrung this tribute from P. Sybarite’s admiration—"if you’re hurt”— “You're on there, too. and don't think for a minute I'll letelia ferglt, neither." CHAPTER XV. Together. THIS chauffeur turned to his car Jumped into the driver’s seal and advanced the spark. Tbt purr of the motor deepened t< a leonine growl. “Hello!" lie exclaimed in surprise real or feigned, to see l*. Sybarite tnk< the seat by his xiJe. "Who's pay in you to lie an ass?" "Did you think I'd usk you to run n risk that frightened me?" Again the spiteful drumming of Hit automatic, p. Sybarite swung rourii in time to sone of the plain clothe men return the lire willi several Inis' shots, then abruptly drop his revolver dap a hand to Ids bosom, wheel hlioul face and fall prone. "Tunin' up!” commented tbe chnuf feur grimly. "Sounds like they was about ready to commence!," Tbe chauffeur's voice was muffled by another volley, on the echoes of which the little man saw the nose of a car poke diagonally out of the garage doors, pause, swerve a trifle to the right and pause once again. “They're corning!" he cried wildly "Stand b.v!" The ulnrtu was taken up and repent ed by twosome throats, while those dotting the street and sidewalks near by broke In swift panic and began madly to scuttle to shelter within door ways and down basement steps. Like an arrow from tile siring No vember s car broke cover at un angle Ignoring the slanting way from tin threshold to the glitter. It took tile bump of the curb apparently at fti!) tilt and skidded to the northern curb before It could lie brought under trol and Its course shaped eastwurd. With a shiver V. Sybarite recognize. I that car. It was not the taxlcnh that he had been led to expect, but tbe same maroon limousine Into which lie hud assisted Marian Blesslngtoti at the bizarre. On Its front seats were two men— Red November himself ot the driver s side, a revolver in either hand. Whom the body of the car might contain I’ Sybarite could not say. There was one passenger at least if he might trust to the most swift of impressions gained in one hasty glance through the for ward windows a* the car Itore down upon them—November's weapons spit ting fire. Ho could not say. but-- he could guess, and. guessing, he knew his auto matlc in bis grasp to be -useless.

A yell and a allot from one of No ▼ember'a revolvers (P. Sybarite saw the bullet score the asphalt not two feet from the forward wheel) warned them to clenr the way na the gang leader’a car swerved wide to pass. And on this the touring ear seemed to get out of control, awlnglug across the street. Immediately the other, crowded to the gutter, attempted to tuke the curb; but, the wheels meeting It at an augle not sufficiently acute, the maneuver failed To a chorus of yells November’s driver shut down the hrnkes not a thought too soon, not soon enough, indeed, to •▼old n collision that crumpled a mud guard as though it had been a thing of pasteboard. Simultaneously P. Sybarite’s chauf feur set the brakes nnd. with the ngllt ty of n hounded rabbit seeking its bur row, dived from his seat to the side of the ear farthest from the gangsters. In an instant he waa underneath It. T. Sybarite, on the other hand, had leaped before the cars came together. Stnggerlng a pace or two—and all the time under fire —he at length found hla feet not six feet from the limousine. It had stopped broudsido on. In this position he commanded the front aeats without great danger of sending a shot through the body. His weapon rose mechanically, and quite deliberately lie took aim. making assurance doubly sure throughout what seemed an age. made sibilant by the singing pnst Ills head of the Infuriated gangster's bullets. But his finger never tightened upon the trigger. November had ceased firing and was plucking nervously at the slide of his automatic. His driver had Jumped down and was scuttling madly up the street In a breath P. Sybarite realized what was the matter. November’s au tomatic. hot from fnst firing, had chok ed on an empty shell. With a soli of excitement the little mau lowered his weapon nnd flung himself upon the gang leader. November rose to meet him, revers lng his pistol nnd aiming at P.
