Profitable ‘though his present situation might :prove in a sense, it could not be as valuable as freedom to follow the case in his own way. Something told him it was urgent that he have his little chat with the Oriental of the opera box. The more he thought about that mysterious individual. and the part played by the Indian in the discovery of the false Maharanee. the more eager he became to talk with him about things in general, and dia- monds in particular. Britz was not given to gossip. vut somehow he felt the Oriental was a briiliant conver nationalist, and that anything {ht Easterner might say would be inter- esting.

One mo- ment he was csnvinccd there was something foreign in the apaearance of the men. The next. he was less certain they were not American. A hawkish sharpness of profile. how- ever, inclined him more strongly to the formcr belief. He had seen re- cently, he thought. a face that in such a. light wouid resemble those bending above him. As he was striving to re- call it. and the circumstance sub rounding it, a fourth scarf was passed about his eyes and knotted behind his head. The silken strip was light in texture. but folded so many times that he could not see the dimmest glimmer of light. {“ _ A Wild Ride. ‘ Once he realized the futility of re- sistance. Britz- busied himself with ef- forts to get. a line on his direction. He was in an ordinary brougham. drawn by a. pair of high‘stepping horses. That much he could tell from the dimensions of the vehicle. and the peculiar ping of the hoofs on the hard- rolled park drive. He knew. too. the animals were traveling at a brisk pace. Despite its delicately adjusted springs. the carriage lurched violently nt times. the weight of the three men who held him being thrown on the rear seat so suddenly as to threaten disruption of the superstructure. He was lying on the floor. but on a pile ‘of rugs. The silk scarf with which he had been fastened had been loosed .from his neck Only to be dram: tight- The happinessof motherhood istoooften checked because the mother’s strength is not equal to her cares, while her unselfish devotion neglects her own health. That. act assured the lieutenant that he was approaching the climax of his adventure. He had been blind- folded, he had no smallest doubt, beâ€" cause his captors were about to take him out or the carriage. and did not wish him to see where he was going. Their precaution also was directed against his study of their faces. Britz drew quick comfort from that re 'flection. It the three intended to kill him. they wouldr not care how close- >ly he scanned their features. That they wished to make it impossible for him to recognize them indicated it was their design soon or late to set him free. No sooner was that Poonviction firmly in his mind than he resolved to make the most of 'his captivity. It must be important to him as it was to the strangers. That it bore in greater or less degree on ‘the Missioner mystery he hardly _quest.ioned.

Next moment his eyes fastened them- selves on the faces in the carriage, and he tried with all his might to make out the dark features of the three in the gloom of the cab; but their features still were shadowy. He would not have liked to have to pick them out of a line in a police station. It was a point of honor with the lieutenant always to be sure of his man before making an indentlflcation. In part. that accounted for the failure of almost every defendant in any of his cgsmtqegablmhgaufiihhmfl. -. first mistake or the trip. The latcn of the left door was jarred loose by an uneven crossing, and the detective felt the door give slightly against his shoulder. He sensed in an eyeflash the door had not swung‘open. Prob- ably an_end of the rug had caught under it sufficiently to hold it shut. But it undoubtedly was unfastened, and that evidently without the know- ledge of his captors. Had any of the three noticed the unlatchiuz oi the door, he would have drawn it close immediately. There was momentary danger of that. There was not a mo- ment to spare. Britz had little time for thought. With a powerful con~ tortlon of his wiry frame, he threw off the men above him long enough to fling himself against the door. Then began as strange a struggle as any in which Britz had engaged in all his exciting career. The men in the cab strove to pull him inside; he battled againSt their efiorts. Bound though his hands were, his fingers were twined tightly about the step rods. He had a grip on the rods as powerful as that with which one of his captors held his ankles. The crossing of his hands to bind his wrists had made his hold only the firmer. All the leverage of each sin- ewy wrist strengthened the other. The rods were so small they hurt his hands, ‘but unless they broke ‘his grip could not be loosened. Brita clutched them with an iron resolve not to be drawn into the brougham again. S,afe though his life might have been at the outset, he was not certain it would be secure after his daring de- fiance of the odds against him. He still knew nothing of his captors. Even their nationality was proble- matical, to say nothing of their pur- pose. He felt that his grip on the rods might be his last hold on exis- tenceâ€"and Britz, in any stage of his career, would have said he was toleb ably satisfied with life, thank you! “This,” said Britz to his inner con- sciousness, with a touch of the grim humor his colleagues often found dis- concerting, “is hill-climbing under difficulties.” For the coachman. in spite- ofâ€"â€"perhaps because ofâ€"the silent struggle going on furiously at the door of the cab, had whipped his horses to a. gallop, and was speeding them up a slope. Over the edge of the scarf that had slipped from his eyes, Brltz got a glimpse of the Sol- diers' and Sailors’ hinnnmnnt Us it enabled the sleuth to hear more clearly. The carriage floor served as a sounding board that microphoned the smallest noises with expansive emphasis. He could hear, amid all the thudding of the horses’ hoofs. the slight suction every time a crack in one of the rubber tires left the as- phalt. WEEK lie" Eoqu" prefis ms ear 10‘ me floor. It was a. cold application, but Britz focussed his forces on the task of ascertaining his whereabouts and direction. One, two. three blocks the brougham sped westward. There had been no swerve in the course since parting from the park. Britz knew he was headed for the Hudson. Had not his blindfolding convinced him his life was not in peril. he might have thought his captors were hurry- ing him to the river to make an end of him. He continued counting the blocks until, wheeling sharply to the right, the horses headed north, and a change in the sound of their hoofs betrayed that they had left the asâ€" phalt and were on the macadam again. “The Drive!” Britz told himself with a slight glow of satisfaction. The distance traveled from the park, the change of direction, and the altered pounding of the highsteppers’ hoofs could mean but one thing: the ve- hicle was bowling along the beautiful Riverside concourse New Yorkers have come to appreciate only in re- cent years. .1; ms .aLfliat minLBntzmdem Britz reckoned on the likelihood that his fall from the carriage would be seen by a patrolmanâ€"at any rate. that his attempt at escape would cause a commotion sure to result in police interference. He did not ex- pect to get away unaided; he was bound too securely for that. It wal more than possible bad bruises, if not broken bones, would be among the consequences. He was willing to take that chance rather than to hazard indefinite captivity with the great Missioner diamond mystery un- solved. In the very moment of hurl- ing himself against the door. nothing was stronger in his mind than a yearning to see the Swami. He felt be positively must chat with that~ mysterious personage about diamonds and steel safes . and other things. Until he made the Oriental’s acquaint ance. his sobial development would be stunted. The detective omitted from his reckoning the astuteness and readi- ness of his captors. He "ought the surprise hinging on his (1 'perate at- tempt at escape would be of sufiicient duration to let him roll to the road. He was shocked mentally as well as physically. therefore. when his fall was stopped with a jerk, and the back of his head struck with cruel force against the carriage step. Just for a second's fiight. reinforced steel and rubber though he was. he lost con- sciousness. When his senses re- turned, he was in the same position â€"head dangling, shoulders resting against the rods of the step, back bent painfully over the steel-shod threshold of the carriage floor, legs inside. gripped in a. hold not all his struggles could break. His ankles still hound. So. for that matter, were his wrists. with his hands behind him. The scarf bandaging his eyes had slipped partly to his forehead. so that he could see a little: but, in his up- side~down position. he could not see the sidewalk; only treetops and tho dusk line of the Palisades were in his line of vision. The gag was fixed as firmly as ever. He tried to call for help, but the cry was smothered in his throat. .. i -nv.----â€",. Mingled with the peculiar taste of the smothering dark was a faint odor unlike anything in the Headquarters man’s experience. Britz. in the course of his long career. had worked on cases injyhich. subtle chemical agents CHAPTER XII. The Empty Apartment. When Britz groped his way out of the soundest sleep he had known in many a year, it was in absolute ignor- ance of his whereabouts. One cause of that unpleasant fact was the inky darkness that covered him like a pall. Even if he had been able to put his hand before his face, he could not have glimpsed its sketchiest outline. The darkness wrapped him so closely itseemed to clash him in a deadly Embrace. ‘ ‘H‘e’ felt'm'ie’ 'th’é‘Inquismion victim in the steadily .contracting contracting room. The darkness pres- sed upon him. With the remorse less insistence of some murky mon- ster of ‘the deep, it forced its way into his eyes, his ears, his mouth. It made its way between his teeth and into his throat until he fancied he could taste itâ€"until he almost suffo- cated. He gasped desperately several times before he returned to anything like his normal breathing. m as its Beginning was the end of the struggle. Britz, his eyes still boring into the inner murk, saw one of the long, lean hands slip forth again. This time. the hand clutched something between thumb and fore- finger. The arm extended until the hand was close to the detective's wrists. Suddenly, the sleuth felt a. frightful burning pain in the back of his hand. The agony was duplicated in the knuckles of the other. Strive though he did with all his grit and strength to retain his grip, his fingers opened against his will, the tandem contracted by the biting agony. and Britz knew a powerful acid had bet: sprinkled on his hands. He could not close them again in the first momen: of his torment. and before his musclsi could recover from the shock, thl sway of the brougham swung him clear or the rods. Then, by the united strength of the three inside, he was Jerked upward. and dragged with a single tug into the carriage. The door was slammed, and the couchman brought his horses back to their high-stepping trot. Suddenly the: slowed to a walk. Lean nanua Framed 107m from the dark interior and caught him about the middle. Other hands seized his legs. while the pair clutching his ankle tightened their grasp. but he only twined his fingers the more 31-me around their sugnt circumier- ence. By now the carriage was roll- ing and pitching like 'a seagoing tug. Had he not been held so stioutly by the six loan hands above, and his own iron clutch below, the motion might have swung his head against the step again With force to crack it in a dozen pieces. The very fury of the battle made for his safety. The horses struck a slope that took them out of the Drive. Britz guessed they could not go far without. en- countering a. policeman. If they did not meet a mounted patrolman or a bicycle blue coat in the avenue. it was elmostcertain they would strike an ordinary policeman in one of the by- streets. Britz chewed the gag savage- ly in the hope of freeing his voice. Finding the bandage too tight to force it out of his mouth, he tried to swallow the silken ball inside his teeth. Gulp as he might, his reversed position distressed him so he could not get the ball behind his tongue. And, owing to the elusive texture of the gag, not all the biting and grind- lng.of his strong teeth coonldshred it. So potent. so gentle was the action of that strange something that the stoppage ot’ the carriage. the lifting from its floor or the inanimate de- tective, the. carrying of his limp form up darkened stairs in dead silence to a top room at the remote end of a suite at the top of the building. and that which happened to the Head- quarters man as, sodden with the subtle soporlflc. he remained at the mercy of the strangers three, were things Britz for many a long day could only guess. So groping was his conjecture through those weary days of uncertainty that whenever he re- called the experience, it was with a certain gliding movement of the jaws that boded ill for the three dark, slim men it ever he should be able to en- fold them in the meshes of the law as they had wrapped him in VIheVir scarves. No, Britz was not vindictive, but he wasâ€"human. “They're sure a fine lot ‘of rum- mies!” exclaimed the bluecoat to hl friend the caachman. “The sooner they hit the hay, the better. 01: your way!" And. the driver fiickin. his horses in a leisurely ways, the brougham resumed its journey with Detective-Lieutenant Britz raging in enforced silence among the silk rug; on its floor. It was just about then that Brit" made his second mistake. H: breathed deeply. True, he was blow r sadly by the desperate struggle as i'( hung headdown from the vehicle ant} his lungs had almost stopped workin: when he was jerked so violently back into the Carriage. The air near the floor was cool and refreshing. Nu ordinary man would have hesitated to renew his strength by drawing it, as far down into his lungs as the cramped position would permit; in! Britz himself. in cooler moments would have observed sagely that air itself was not always an unmixed blessing. lie would have told in- quiring minds that, under suspicious circumstances. it should be taken with caution and, it possible, should be well shaken before taken. In thin instance. the air Britz breathed was mixed with a subtle something that gradually stole his senses and left him, though healthily alive, an inert heap under the feet of his captors. A patrolman pressed his face against the pane and looked inside Already. the three dark, slender man who had kidnapped the detective were lolling and nodding in a way suggestive of safe but satisfied in toxication. Britz, trussed more 59 curely than ever, was under theii feet, well out of the policeman'a range. “What‘s wrong here?" asked I voice at the window. “Hallo, Rafferty,” said the drive: with an easy familiarity of a night hawk toward the rank and file of tht force. “Just a bunch of drunks I'm taking to their little white cots,” 11: added in an undertone. Britz rolled over on his face. As his hands were tied behind his back, his chin rested on the floor, and he had little leverage by which to lift himself. Several times he tried to rise to his knees, only to slip and bruise his face on the hard floor. mishaps were painful, but not dis- couraging to a man of Britz’s reso- luteness. Again and again he made the attempt, again and again he failed. but at last, with a. mighty heave that left him panting, he raised himself by a catapult movement and sat back pn his heels, waiting to catch his The Headquarters sleuth, however, quickly dismissed from his mind the unpleasant possibility that suggested itself. It was true he would have pre- ferred even the return of his abduc- tors to the probability of being roast- ed like a trussed fowl, but it also was true that there was no special reason to fear the building'would blaze. The important thing was to escape before he could be assailed by either kidnap~ pers or flames. That he had been deserted by the three men who seized him in the park did not occur to him. He thought of them as coming back to carry out the purpose of their dar- ing capture. It was far from desir- able that he be there on their return. Yet howshould he get away? Al- ready he felt the futility of striving to snap his bonds by main strength. He must have recourse to another method. But what? The hollow thud of his boot heels told him the room below was bare too. Evidently, he was in a. building that was abandoned in whole or in part. The reflection made him just a. little uncomfortable. If there was one thing that got on the cool detec- tive’s nerves it was the idea. of being helpless in a fire. He would not mind fighting his way out of a. burning houseâ€"he had done so more than once. But the thought of being hem- med in by four walls, unable to move hand or foot, with flames sweeping through the structure or crawling hungrily towards him had been the phantasy of his few nightmares. He dreaded it with all the dread of a strong man who lusts for action in danger. So long as Britz could battle for life or liberty, he was sure to be happy. He would have shone only in a literal sense as the hero of an auto-da-fé. were Important racwrs. he man so:- ved one mystery hingmg on murder- ous use of poisonous perfumes from Persia and Asiatic Turkey, and fatal narcotics of South America. This ghostly scent that hovered about him was unlike any of those drugs 01‘ 63- sences. Neither did it suggest any of the anesthetics that are the ser- vants of surgery. So delicate was it that after the first whiff it was only by an effort the detective could make his doubting senses record its pres- ence. Yet it had a persistence all its own, and when he tried to persuade himselbhis sensory nerves had played a trick upon him, it wreathed into his nostrils with unmistakable individu- aiity. Britz needed no effort, to rise to tell him he still was bound hand and foot, and in the first instant of his full awakening he realized the silken gag still held his speech in thrall. So un- like all other waking was his return to consciousness that just for a mo- ment he fancied his thoughts Were spoken aloud. It was when he tried to call whoever might be within ear- shot that the complete awakening came upon him and with it the know- ledge he could not make himself heard more than a. few feet off. He hit the ball of silk savagely and strained his tongue until the roots ached in en- deavors to force the gag out of his mouth. As well might. he. helpless as to hands and feet as he was, have tried to shake off a gorilla's grip at his throat. Yet the seeming lmpt“ iessness of his plight did not disturb him greatly. He had been in \'.'.",l".~'.rj places. It was a question of patimi'c berserverance. and pluck. and when Not without profit to his physical. as well as mental, well-being had Brita throughout his service in the Detective Bureau devoted half an hour daily to gymnasium work. He was not a Sandow, but he had abun- dance of pliant and serviceable strength. After many minutes passed in vain efforts to free himself, he re laxed his body and limbs for a short but complete rest, meanwhile bend- ing his mind to tht task of determin- ing where he was. The result of his mental endeavor was as fruitless as the other. All he knew at the end of it was that he lay on a bare floor in a room which, from the sound of his heels on the boards. he judged was small. That thought suggested to him a means of summoning help other than vocal. He began drum- ming on the boards with his heels. It was tiring work. for his ankles were held so close that, with his feet heat- ing in alternation, he could not make such noise. To make a sound likely to carry far, he had to raise and low- er his heels togetherMan achieve- ment that sounds easy until one has tried.doing it many times. With all his endurance he could not keep it up for many times at a. stretch. In the intervals he strained his hearing for a response. None came. He tested his bondsâ€"gently, then vigorously, then with all his strength. They held because they yielded. They followed every movement of his well- trained muscles elastically. At no time did they offer direct resistance in such manner as to give him oppor tunity to snap them. They did not clasp; they clung. Shrewdly had his captors planned the holding power of those soft bandages. The scarves were of silk from foreign looms, and their softness was equaled by their strength. They could have been spli into half-inch strips without becoming breakable. save in the hands of a strong man pulling with excellent purchase. Circling the detective's wrists and ankles as they did, it was impossible. tug as he might, for him to apply his power to them effective- ly. The more furious his struggles, the closer their clinging. “This," said the sleuth to himself. for want of a more appreciative audi- tor, "is a proposition that calls for both. thought and, action It is both i.

He could not do it in the middle of the floor. Slowly, carefully, he worked his way on his knees to the wall, against which he braced him- self. Then, bit by bit, be bent his feet forward in a demilune until his weight was on knees and toes. His progress was as painful as it was slow. for the silk scarf compelled his ankles to bend in unison. if at all, and emu when he had bent his toes to the requisite point it was a great strain in hen them there. ’ Ewh'ifif" of fancy, in that moment When he knelt and balanced himself with such extreme difficulty, threw on his mental moving picture screen the memory of little Dorothy March as she looked that afternoon in the Forrest Theater when, unwilling as he was in one way to play upon her girlish ingenuousness, he had deemed it permissible to get from her the in- formation he needed in regard to the drawings from which the fraudulent Missioner necklace was made. 01' course. it was only natural that. any- one in any way connected with the case should come into his mind. yet it undoubtedly was strange that the picture of the demure débutantc should present itself to his inner vision so vividly and so persistently.

He found himself wedged between a metallic framework and the wall. A venomous hiss and the contact of his bound hands with hot metal told him he had fallen on a steam radiator. and as the hissing sound increased he guessed the shock had broken the little safety valve close to the top of the curved pipes. It the detective’s position had been perilous before it was extra hazardous now.
