Samuel Honeybun, English country- finds blood in his rain gauge on morning of the murder Sir Francis Lathrop, Sir Guy Lathrop is suspected of the Jourder and Inspector Roake of Scot- nd Yard is prevented from arresting him by Sir Guy going into hiding. Meanwhile-- Adrian Klyne, private detective, em- ployed by argaret, daughter/of the murde man, and engaged to Sir Guy, akes into custody-- i mot, Honeybun's chauffeur, and hides him in the shanty of a poacher named Sturman, Klyne threatens Wilmot with third degree if he dods not tell why he, Wil- mot, had attempted to kill Klyne just the plot was set by the Honeybuns and Adela, the latter having tipped him off.) Klyne asks Wilmot "Were you instigated by Miss Larkin?" NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY. Wilmot nodded his head violently. There was no doubt of his wish to con- vey an affirmative answer. "The swine is shifting the blame on to missy," growled Sturman. And he shoved the poker into the now blaz- ing fire with grim relish. "You attempted to act on Miss Lar- kin's instigation?" the inquisitor turn- od again to the captive. This question was notrreceived with the same enthusiasm. In fact it seem- ed to reduce its recipient to a state of coma; A glassy film veiled his eyes and he remained motionless. "Take his beots off and then give me the poker, Sturman," said the op- erator of the third degree. The film cleared from Wilmot's eyes and He Ni0ded his head, less vigor- ously thun before, but still it was an back. I shall 'phone for a hired one and scour the country for my own." But through the open window the drone of familiar engines and, glancing out, the speaker saw that he could call off the projected search. His own car was coming up the drive, pil- oted by a strange gentleman who was looking about him with interested cur- iogity. The car drew up at the front door and Mr. James Honeybun left the breakfast table to reclaim his lost pro- perty. He waited for the explanation that would doubtless be forthcoming. It came quickly enough, commencing tin interrogatory form. before the capture, (Klyne knows that | : 3 | the wheel, as though not suré of his _AAre you Mr. James Homeybun, sir?" began the stranger. "And is this: your car?" He kept his hand on reception. "Yes, 'I am James Honeybun, and that's my car. 1 am quite sure that if you pinched it you didn't mean to," the young man essayéd clumsy face- tiousnees, The stranger slowly descended. "Then the yokel who informed me told me the truth," he replied. "I am glad to be able to restore to you the car, Mr. Honeybun. I found it on Hangman"s Heath while taking an early morning stroll. I am staying at the inn at Cheverel." "Did you see nothing of my chauf- feur? He has been missing since last ! night."

The copper deposits of Allenby mountain near Princeton have at last come inte successful exploitation and the concentrator with a capacity of 2,000 tons a day has been in full op- eration. The two other large mines of the province, at Britannia and at Anyox, have been centres of great activity, The Ontario production is from the nickel-copper ores of Sud- bury mining district. Further in- creases in copper production may be expected when in about a year the new mining camp of Rouyn and vicinity begins making an output. The comi- pletion of 'the railway line from Tas- chereau has solved the problem of transportation and will permit of the erection of the necessary plants for the mining and smelting of the ores. Ore bodies of great value have been proved, the extent of favorable pros- other mining camps of the province, there berta. The strike at a depth of 8,740 feet of a heavy flow of wet gas in Royalite No. 4 well two years ago, re- vived interest and as a result a great number of wells were drilled in dif- ferent parts of the province in 10286, the greatest activity centering in, the Turner Valley field and other points in the foot-hills, In two or three wells heavy flows of wet gas have been struck from which an important yield tive as Royalite No. 4. Five hundred barrels of light oil is recovered daily from this one well and the gas, after purification, is piped to Calgary. Sev- eral wells have not yet reached the deep oil-bearing formation and the progress of drilling in these and in those situated in other parts of the pravince will be watched with great expectancy. harm on Wilmot, Scotland Yard doesn't .murder or abduct persons ranged against it. And Wilmot wasn't that. He was playing Roake's game in helping to discredit the so-called red rain." "Roake mightn't see it in that light if he knew what had caused the death of the young assistant he left in charge at the Grange that night," Mr. James countered his father's opinion. "Well, I'll be shot!" the startled ex- clamation was dragged from him by the apparition of the bedraggled scare- crow who had stumbled into the room, In the meanwhile "the man calling himself Lord Bulpeter," traveling "foot along by-roads and across fields, came to Ned Sturman's cottage in the woods beyond Cheverel village. He unlatched the door and stepped confi- dently inside to halt in amazement at the spectacle that met his gaze. He had left two occupants in the room-- one trussed up of a chair and the other keeping guard over him. Now there was only one occupant, and he was the one who had been keeping guard. But he was trussed up on the chair and the erstwhile captive was as in View A.

Mr, James Honeybun, joining him a few minutes later, was in far from benignant mood. He cursed the kid- neys as tough, damned the coffee as oold and finally upbraided his father for looking so happy. "Why shouldn't I look happy when I feel 80?" protested the old man. "Nothing has gone wrong, has it?" "Wilmot's nowhere about, and as the car isn't in the garage he can't have come back. Seems as if that girls scheme ended in a miss-fire or worse, unless it was a plant. I don't tke her." "She's sound goods," dissented Mr, Honeybun, senior, who had a sneak® ing senile admiration for Adela's pert prettiness. "More likely Wilmot has ebsconded with the car, or else sold the pass to the chap calling himself Lord Bulpeter. You may not like Miss Larkin, but I'm jiggered if I like Wilmot." "Where should we have been with- out him?" was the gloomy rejoinder. "Can we do anything, Jem?" asked Bamuel Honeybur. "I shall have to," said his son.

That be damned for a yarn." e Mr. James Honeybun stared hard at his chauffeur, subjecting the ape-like features to the searchlight of his keenest scrutiny. But what he saw there convinced him that any secrets shared with Wilmot were safe. The man had too much at stake himself to have divulged anything essential. The strangled C. I.
