THE SEVEN SLEEPERS A Thrilling Novel of International Intrigue (Continued from Yesterday's Star.) At the same time, Rehmy laid a firm grasp on my shoulder. “You must calm yourself, Capt. Preston. We can do no good by los- ing control.” 1 leant back against the banisters. The first shock was passing and my brain was at work again. I explained as coherently as 1 could what had happened on the telephone. “She knows where Lavelle hid the document,” I ended. “My God! They may have killed her, t00. “Steady, man,” said Rehmy quietl “They wouldn't do that. They're not re far more likely to have put her safel His calmness res “We must act at once, may still be at her pension. We may yet be in time to catch them.” De Blanchegarde, with his usual impetuosity, ran down the broad stairs ahead of us, =o that when we hed the entrance to the secre- at the engine of the car was ul- ly running, and u moment ater were speeding to the Boulevard des Tranchees, where Beatrice lived. Throughout the short journey 1 de- liberately refused to think, for I veri- 1y believe I should have lost my rea- son if I had faced the terrible possi- bilities that suggested themseves. I looked unseeing t the buildings dripping with moisture (the town was 1 enveloped in its usual mist). we were compelled to slow down to a standstill at a crossing of two streets, to allow the passage of I took to be the local fire bri- gade, which leisurely crossed our path in single file on bicycles. They wore large brass helmets and blue uniforms, and carried hatchets, but they did not appear to be in any great hurry, and their presence was only forced on my notice by the sud den slowing down of the car. 1t could not have been, I suppose, much more than 10 minutes or a quarter of an hour since I had heard the receiver fall from the hand of Beatrice when we found ourseves on the pavement, ringing the front door bell of a flat building, in the upper stories of which lights were to be seen. It was a dreary-looking place and Beatrice's remark at lunch- eon about horrid ittle pensions re- curred vividly to my mind as the door was opened by a tousled Swiss in shirt sleeves and a green baize apron, with n large smear of dirt on one cheek. tehmy, as leader of our part quested immediate speech with proprietor. The man admitted us into a small hall, which smelled of mackintoshes and’ vegetables recently covked. and, after some delay, on the ground that the patron was probably in bed, went off to find him, while we waited, myself in an agony of impatience. After some minutes, a comfortable woman in black came down the stairs to meet us and inquired our business. Her husband, she said, had gone to Ted and she did not like to disturb him, “We wish to see Miss Harvel im- diately,” said Rehmy. The lady shook her head. “That i impossible, Messieurs,” she said. “Poor Mlle. Harve has sudden- 1y been taken ill and—-"" “But I spoke to her myself,” T pro- tested, when a gesture from Rehmy silenced me, and 1 realized that it would be unwise to awaken the curi- osity or suspicion of the proprietress. “This illness,” said Rehmy, “i$ sud- den.” “Yes,”” continued the proprietress. | “She was here to dinner as usual and appeared to be in good spirits. But shortly after 10 o'clock a hospital | nurse and a doctor arrived in an am-| bulance. They said that they had re ceived a telephone message from the friends of Miss Harvel, who had vers suddenly been taken seriously ill. A maid at once conducted them to Miss Harvel's room, and five minutes later the poor lamb was carried down un- conscious. She looked very ill, indeed. They have only just gone,” she add- ed. “barely 10 minutes ago.” “Did they leave the address of the| place to which they were taking Miss| Harvel?” asked Rehmy *‘No, monsieur."” “Did vou know the doctor?

The aver ige traveler nowadays no more thinks of carrying arms than he would of traveling without a railway ticket. But if ever a man needed weapons I needed them now Rehmy leaned forward and pulled in_automatic from a pocket in the car’s upholstery. He handed it to me. Do you know this make?” he in- quired. It was a French army automatic of small pattern, with two extra maga- zines of cartridges. 1 slipped it into my pocket, as we speeded toward our destination. We swung sharp and pulled up with a_jerk in a narrow street, which T found was the top end the Rue Etienne Dumont. Our further progress was rendered impossible hy large and ever-in- creasing crowd which completely Wocked the narrow street, “What {8 it now?" said De Blanche- warde, as he jumped from the car. We followed him and soon the three of us were elbowing our way through excited Genevese citizens, some of whom, I noted, were arrayed in portions of their night attire. Anx- ious as we all were, the irrepressible De Blanchegarde could not refrain from pointing to the ludicrous spec- tacle of an elderly citizen, stuck half- way through a window, a large nignt <ap on his head, looking not unlike a ontinental Mr. Pickwick. informed that We were a_tire farther down the street on the vight. It had apparently broken out very suddenly. As we fought our way through the crowd, I saw ahead of us a dull glow by dense volumes of smoke. A strong smell of burning pervaded the air. By hard pushing we eventually won our way to the forefront of the crowd. “As T thought,” Rehmy observed suddenly in my ear. The dread tightened about my heart as I realized the significance of h caclamation. round a corner A | chance of rescuing Beatrice. | auestioned there was | of flames obscured | By FRANCIS BEEDING (Copyright, 1925, by Little, Brown & Co.) The burning house was some G0 yards ahead of us, for a police cordon prevented any unauthorized person from approaching nearer to the scene of the disast Some dozen men, in the blue uniform and brass hats of the fire brigade, were running aim- lessly about dragging lengths of hose along the pavement, I remembered the file of cyclists, similarly attired whom I had seen @ short time pre- viously. Rehmy approached a gendarme and inquired whether we might be per- mitted to go farther down the street. No,"” replied the gendarme firmly. “In no circumstances whatever, mon- sieur.” But we have urgent business with some gentlemen in No. 140,” expos- tulated Rehmy. “In that case,” replied darme, “vou are a little late, sieur. No. 140 is in flames. We looked at each other, our dawn- ing apprehension confirmed. he sapeurs pompiers,” the gen- darme volunteered, *‘were called out about half an hour ago. But there is no cause for alarm on behalf of your friends,” he continued, “for the house was empty “Empty? the gen- mon- * 1 echoed. “Yes, monsieur. The heroic fire brigade succeeded in penetrating to every room before the flames became too much for them. There wus 1o one at all in the house. The zentle men whom you wish to see have evi dently escaped.” “Well,” said Rehmy briefly, turn ing as he spoke, “it's no use standing here. Back to the car.” We pushed our way slowly through the crowd back to the spot where we had left the Peugeot standing. As we went, De Blanchegarde laid a hand on my arm. . “Mon Capitaine,” he said, “I've known worse moments than this ‘and he gently squeezed the muscles of my forearm with a friendly ges ture. It was kindly meant and I tried to respond, but without much success. Arrived at the car, we paused to take counsel. It appeared to be quite checkmate. The document, the con- spirators and Beatrice were lost, and there appeared to be no possible clue to thelr recovery. Even at that bitter moment, I could not help noticing, as we talked, the difference in my two companions. Rehmy, I could see, was primarily concerned about the document. e took from force of habit the profes- sional view—the official Work must at all costs go forward. De Blanche- garde—or Gaston, as I soon learned to call him—was chiefly preoccupied b: the personal aspects of the adventure, the escape of the professor, the mur- der of Lavelle and the abduction of Beatrice. As for me, international problems, conspiracies and even the brutal murder of my friend Lavelle all dwindled before the supreme and terrible fact that the girl whom I loved was in the hands of a man whom I dreaded above all other men in the world, while I was ignorant alike of her fate und of her where- outs.
