Let ‘em conte.” . Johnson laughed as loudly as the rest, Left alone, Amoura walted for Johnson to return. She realized that he could not remain behind, and ex- pected him to use some device to re- turn to Her. After what seemed to her fifteen minutes, but was in real: ity only two or three she stirred out of her uncomfrotable hiding vlace and stood up on the scene ot John- von's fight with the dog. It was lucky, she thought, that Burke had continued to hold ‘the dog, else the animal would have gone eniffing around and betrayed her. Fearful of recapture, she decided to flee unaided, and t to follow in the direction the men had just gone, A few minutes later she re- gretted her decision, for she fell over a stump, and shook the dry leaves of a dead bush, sending up a racket in the still night air. The dog resumed his barking. The heart of Johnson, walking with the men, leaped. Burke stopped and listened. “What the hell?” The dog fought to be released. Doubt- fully Burke set him afoot and the animal dived into the brush and was off, barking, with the. men follow: ing him, Johnson in the lead. » I don’t they'll knock the door down. Why, one reporter climbed in the fire escape this morning, and al- most succeeded in getting in." Amoura, thinking of MoGar, smiled, She heard her father mak- ing explanations to someone, and then heard the clear tones of La Houbierfe's voice. ‘Let her come in, Daddy,” she called. Madame- came {n, with a grand smile at J. Reginald that caused his face to lighten, his eyes show- ing appreciation of her charming figure. Hans Van Pugh paused in the doorway. Amoura, reoelving La Houblerre’s kiss, saw him, and in- yited him in, ‘With the conventional expressions of joy over her rescue out of the way, La Houblerre came to the point. “I hope that Mademoiselle is going to favor my salon with her presence in?" “IT wou'd I to, but ——.” was thinking of staring e: f se days, jog’s barks paused now, lost for the “4 Eran cane so tHeaeL OAye noment, and called out sharply. ‘Carlo!

That was enough to set the pursuers aright, and they came toward Am- sura’s hiding place flashing a light. The youth hurriedly pushed Am- yura further back into the under: rush and moved from her place of oncealment to brush his clothes.

He ought to know me. ‘The man thus addressed eyed him suspiciously, The youth waved a hand toward the tree. ‘There he fs, just knocked the breath out of him, IT guess.” He continued to dust and arrange his clothes nonchalantly. Burke picked Fup the animal and petted him on the head. The suffering dog opened one eye. The other two men, each armed, went over to look on, but kept their eyes on the youth, Burke whirled areund. ‘“*If.you've killed him, I'll kill you.
