They were nearing Eze and the car suddenly turned off the main road and climbed a stesp, rough avenue. They passed through a plantation of pine trees, emerged again and drew up before a large villa. The chauf- feur descended and unlocked the door of the car. His companion, a tall, powerful looking man, stood by his side. The front door had been opened and Nina dt Bieni, with a mantilla thrown over her head, came down the steps. “How nice of you both to come to my supper party,” she said. “Please hurry Inside. It is cold here.” “Thank you,” Violet replled. “I do not wish to come inside. I had no idea we were coming here. I ought not to have left the ball at all and I wish to return at once.” “I hope,” Nina begged, “that you are going to be sensible. You can do no earthly good by making trouble. Will you please come in for a little time.” It you don’t you will be car- ried." Violet hesitated witk her foot upon the step. For one moment she thought of & wild rush down the ave- nue. Then she recognized the hope- lessness of any such idea. Robert, however, suddenly struck the nearest man and tried to dart past him. In a moment he was on his back. The chauffeur stooped down and picked him up as though he had been a baby. | “Quite useless, that sort of thing.” | the ‘marchesa obsirved. “Nothing is | going to happen to you so long as you behave nicely.

He left the box and was starting to search on his own account when he felt a touch upon his arm. He turned sharp- 1y round and looked into the heavy- Jowled, but not ill-natured, counte- nance of Mr. Daniel Wegges. “T'd like a word with you, grave,” the latter announced. ““Later on,” was the curt reply. looking for some one.’ “Maybe I could help in that search,” Mr. Wegges confided. Hargrave, who had half turned away, swung around. For a moment Mr. Wegges flinched. There was some- thing very menacing in Hargrave's manner. “Is this another of Trentino's famned games?” he demanded. Mr. Wegges with professional cau- tion admitted nothing. “Maybe I have an idea where the young lady could be found,” was as far as he cared to commit himself. “Get on with it,” Hargrave enjoined h'flhitl&nll) ““What's the next move?” “I have an automobile right out- side.” the attorney indicated, pointing to the entrance. “If you like to come along with me now without a word to any of your friends I guess we can fix things up all right.” Hargrave reflected swiftly. “The cards are in your hands for the moment,” he admitted. “I'm ready.” (Copyright. 1926, by E.
