A slow moyement of one‘ hand swept back a lock of white hair trom his forehead, and again he ad-l dressed Mr. Van Veohten, who was; watching him narrowly. “For Miss Carew’s sake,” he said,: “a word or two of explanation is neces-l nary.

But: when I am through, gentlemen, I want. you to remember how desperate were - my chancesâ€"that I had to sink or swimâ€"and that I am right!” It was characteristic of the regard in which the Man of Iron was univer- sally held that Max Willard asked for no further assurance. He might take. any advantage of you in which he was pleased to regard as partaking of the nature of open warfare; but his Word once passed, and he was bound irrevocably. For the first time he showed a spark of emotion, and the last expression was uttered in a burst of earnestness- that made manifest the intense feel- lng lying behind it. “That you win,” announced the Man? of Iron, shortly. ; “Stop that thing!” “You meanâ€"?” returned Willard; hastily feeling with deft fingers among the padded cushions. His hands found a certain position and hovered in an: attitude of readiness. The harrowing; clockwork ticked on. “She consented to disappear for a time, until her family’s alarm was such that I could bend it to my own ends in making this demand; but she am not dream that she was to appear in such a role as this.” He pointed to the motionless form, and for a mo- ment_regarded it tenderly. “But by The clockwork ceased like a period to this utterance. Mr. Van Vechten returned to his place at the table’s head. the aid of a light, harmless narcotie. the effects of which I can banish in a moment, I brought her here to play this unconscious part.” Theodore Van Vechten once more started towand .the speaker, but a “The willardite is there.” Once more he glanced at his watch, with an indif- ferent air, and snapped it shut. “One, minute till twelve,” he announced. Pointing to the satin pillow upon which the fair head rested, Max Wil- lard said briefly: There was a sudden cry from one of. the guests, an involuntary outburst of alarmâ€"an indication that strained This same lady had experienced lit-4 :, tle difficulty in winning Paige Carew’s, 'sympathyâ€"particularly after Paige. had met and become acquainted with.

The culminating bizarre climax, in which she had played so conspicuous a. part, he had kept to himself, know-' ing that her willing co-cperation could- not be expected.

It was Jessie whom Van VeChten and Tom had seen arrive at the Silent House. Sunday. in a taxi-cab. In the beginning, the one thing clear to all of them had been the fact that the Man of Iron was protected by an invulnerable legal barrier, and that if‘ redress was to be obtained at all it‘ must be accomplished by means ofe some surprising coup that would catch the magnate amid such conditions: that he could not refuse to accede. Thus it was that Josephine Deyereaux,l on the strength of old ties of senti-, ment and friendship, had easily enlistq ed Temple Bonner’s financial aid. The death of O’Neill was the first of a sequence of accidents that plunged Max Willard into hot water alm08t at the moment when he saw success for his undertaking. O’Neill had and wered the advertisement blindly 3 but as soon as he stepped across the! threshold of Number 1313 he had been' recognized as the traitorous employe of Willard’s who had surreptitiously sold the time-lock drawings and metal formulae to Theodore Van Vechten. In the fight that followed Callie struck; a. blow from which O’Neill, only a few minutes later, had been rendered un-‘ conscious. In mums. he had mo- Cnred a temple, and thus received hll death wound. Tom had drawn Paige off to the embrasure of one of the library’s cur- tained Bay windows. “What In the world is the matter with you?” the girl remonstrated in amazement. “Y on are as rough as a. The Kohinur Goes to Sea. It was not long until all the loose' ends were brought together. Jessie Willard’s aunt, Mrs. Devereaux, had been the acting spirit in getting the. scheme for restitution under way, be-. causeâ€"until she had induced him to do soâ€"Max Willard had been loath to. accept his old friend Temple Bonner’s assistance. Tom Phinney was standing just in 'side the doorway, taking in the scene. Beside him stood Mr. Flint. A servant entered hurriedly. Be-, fore he could make any announcement he was flung aside. He went sliding helplessly over the polished floor, grasping at every object within reach. pulling down chairs and tables and everything movable in the ' .Lth of his tornado-like progress, until he brought up against the wall. For a moment the Man of Iron seemed to be choking. But at this‘ juncture a disturbance was heard id the hall. Like a stung lion, Theodore Van1' Vechten turned upon him. “What do you mean by that?” he demanded. “But don’t be afraid; there 18 no willardite hereâ€"nor any other 9x4, plosive." Max Willard quietly corrected himz, “ ‘Willardite,’ you mean.” Stooping over the back of the casket, he pressed 9. hand gently over the soft cushions. 'while he seemed to consider. Pres-1 ently he continued: “You dastardly cur!” he cried. “I shall give you your pound of flesh; but â€"so help me God,â€"you’ll regret this night!” “Heaven knows, I have regretted the, necessity,” responded Willard dryly.

Very deliberately she disengaged her hands, looking at him desperately. “Truly?” she said with an evident effort at sarcasm. “You seem indeed to be very sure of yourself.” What otherwise could Pa! Jessie think? Here was an,B 511:: ment that even a woman could not successfully oppose. And so, the day, the Kohlnnr weighed tacit: dropped down the river, and by sun- set had lost the Statue of m be- hind her. “That,” Mr. Flint pursued, his eyes crinkling in a smile, “Is what Mr. R!)- "dolph Van Vechten told me at a time whe: I honestly believed you to be a croo .” It was Paige Carew tryingâ€"vainly â€"to break loose from Tom Phinney'e ecstatic bear-like hug. Swinging he: clear from the floor and between the curtains, they stood confronting the dumfounded gaze of the other two. “Looky here, Ruddy,” said Tom. “Mr. Willard's got a yacht on his hands that he has no use for what- ever; what’s the matter with the {our of usâ€"” “The very thing!” Van Vechten de- cisively interrupted, looking intently at Jessie Willard. Jessie averted her gaze, and her color mounted again. “And listen here," Tom went "on egg. erly. “She’s all \ready to put to sea... steam’s up this minuteâ€"supplies all on boardâ€"crew's drawing pay for loaf. ingâ€"Why, Moses and green speo. tacles! it would be an outrage not. to take advantage of sugh an opportnm. ty!

What was Van Vechten came eagerly forward and took the girl’s hands into his. Mr. Flint slipped unobtrusively away. Jessie was breathing fast; her ey were very bright and their regard w very steady. “Why, I felt that he would need a champion, and I determined to bring the memorandum to you. You know now, that from the very first. at least one person has retained a firm belief in the innocence and purity of your motives.” The two in the bay window could see the color rush‘ to Jessie's cheeks; she blushed furiously. “Have you,” she said falteringly, “shown this toâ€"to him?” “He doesn’t even know that I pos- sess such a thing.” The girl’s eyes were dewy. Her voice lowered. “Then,” said 8116, “this is your way of telling me that all your doubts are removed. Thank you.” “Vv'ell,” returned the impassive de- tective, “that’s one way of looking at the matter. If Mr. Rudolph’s judg- ment had been in error, I would just as freely have shown the reminder to him. . . . Here he comes now.” “And they lived happily ever after I” “I see, a fairy story.” “You see, I hadn’t Mr. Van Vechtr en’s faith. I had never seen you, and appearances were all against you. I might say; the odds were against the correctness of his estimateâ€"in which case I meant to show him these words.” “And if you had been wrong?” she asked. The creases at the corners of Mr. Flint’s eyes deepened. After reciting the circumstances. he went on: He methodically closed the book, Snapped the rubber band around it. and returned it to his pocket, while Jessie stared at him in blank amazo ment. “ ‘Nothing in the world could be more absurd than to imagine the girl I saw being engaged in anything crim- inal, or even entertaining a suspicion that she may be surrounded by a criminal atmosphere. She is young; she is beautiful, she is refined and gentle; the stamp of purity and adâ€" herence to right ideals is unmistak- able in her countenance. Whatever comes of your investigations, you will fi’TId to be unqualifiedly true all that I now assert concerning her.’ ” “If I have your permission, I will read you something,” said he; then he fixed his attention upon the memo- randum book, and continued: “I am not often controlled by im- pulses, Miss Willard, but at the time it struck me that the occasion might come when this would form a rather Interesting document.” “What is it?" “You frighten me." pirate.” Tom did not heed. His eyes were unnaturally bright and he was breath- ing heavily. “Listen!” he cautioned in a whisper. He could not repress his excitement. “That’s Flint talking to Jessieâ€"to Miss Willard, I mean. She and Mrs. Devereaux came with us from the Kohinur. . . . Hang it all! Don’t make so much noise! I want you to hear what they are saying.” Jessie looked a trifle frightened. She and the detective were standing by one of the big tables. He was hold- ing in one hand a pocket memoran- dum book, and talking in his quiet way. Paige, with her head close to Tom’s, peered through the curtains. They heard Mr. Flint say: Continued nem week. Defined. demanded Jessie. He was clad in rags from head to foot, his overalls stitched in a dozen places with binder twine and his gen- eral appearance that of dire poverty and utter hopelessness. And when he knocked at the door of Bert \Vard’s house north of Bienfait, he was taken in and make warm bv the hospitable fire. But there is alimit to even the hospitality due to the ragged wander- er and when this particular derelict showed no disposition to move along when his welcome had worn out. a call was sent in to Constable McRae of the Provincial Police, at Estevan. Arrived on the scene Constable McRae found his man still hugging the kitch- en fire and had some difficulty in stirr- ing him loose from his comfortable Corner.
