The Story Thus Far. Carol Clayton postpones her marriage to wealthy Hartley Mad- ison and starts to play the horses 0 that she can pay Duke Brad- ley her dead father's debt of $76.000. Carol resents the hand- some bookmaker because he had accused her of marrying for money. Her luck is phenomenal. Then Duke, warning her of a nervous breakdown, gets Hartley to join her in Florida. He is anzious for Hartley's bets and Carol has determinedly thwarted all his moves in this dircction. Dr. Beard tells Hartley that Carol's nerves are bad mercly because of the marriage post- ponement. Meanwhile, Duke is gleful. Hartley has placed his first bet with him. True, he has won, but there is always the “law of averages.” The two men are talking in Duke's room when Carol suddenly appears, white ith fury. CHAPTER XIV. “I bet on the winnes darling,” cried Madison. “Two thousand dol- lars I bet—Duke was good enough | race | to let me bet one after the started and then when Stardust was shead at the half, let me double it. Did you ever hear of anything so de- cent as that?” Carol did not speak. She did not move. Only her eyes turned to Duke. If looks could kill, Duke thought, that would be his last moment. He knew what was racing through her mind, making her eyes narrow in anger. But Madison was so thrilled by the race, by his winning, that he did not notice how strangely she was behaving. “It was three to one on Stardust,” Madison went on happily. “And it brings our wedding day that much closer.” Then she found her voice. “What-do-you-mean?” she spaced her words. Madison was beginning to be aware that there was something he did not understand. His voice became less buovant, more tender. Darling,” he said, “why didn't you tell me about Brookdale and that you were—" “By whose authority, Mr. Bradley,” eut in Carol, “do you tell my affairs? “I thought,” began Duke, but before he could say more, Madison spoke: “I don't know why he shouldn't have told me, Carol. But it just hap- pens he didn't “I've always heard men to each other,” said Carol. there is no need to lie to me. body in the world knew why I was | following the rac but Duke, so who else could have told you?” “You forget, Carol dear,” Madison, “you told the doctor.

What shall I say about United Cop- per?” Madison glanced at his wrist. “Your watch is slow,” he said “The market has closed. It doesn't matter. It can wait a day.” “If you say so.” said the secretary, as he went through the door. “But it meant at least half a million and——" “Forget it, Boswell,” said Madison. are loyal | said py.

Carol saw what she had Standing in the docrway, Carol was the center of every one’s eyes. “This is no day to talk of such things as quotations and possible losses and | gains.’ Duke who hfld been counting a big roll of bills handed them to Madi- son. He held them out to Carol. “I can't take this money,” she But Carol, darling, why not? T've got to do this by myself,” she “If I'd wanted any help I'd have mentioned it before this. And I don’t want you betting and giving the money to me.” Her words and the way she said them made Madison more anxious than he had been before about her nerves. This couldn't go on. She would break, if things were not made right soon. “Carol,” he said gently, “all I want to do is to make you happy—us hap- aid. DAILY SHORT STORY l c Y ardman RAMP didn't have to see the bluish, ugly automatic in the hand of the stran- ger to know that the man who had noiselessly pushed open the door of his cabin and cat- footed inside was Spider McGee. Sheriff Charlie King from River- bend had stopped by Just yesterday and warned him about this same Spider. “Now, you may be a danged smart old coot, Gramp,” the sheriff had eaid, “but you ain't come up against & real city gangster like this Spider McGee. tough baby: he'd as soon throat as eat his breakfast. “What fer?” Gramp had wanted to know laconically. “Well, now, you must be awful dumb 4f you can't guess what fer. Ain't a soul in Riverbend County but what knows you got your hull life savings hid around here in a tin can some- wheres.” “No one ain't tried to git it away from me afore.” “Folks around here ain't crooked enough to want to, or don't figure they're smart enough to try it. Now, you look here. This Spider escaped | from the county jail two days ago. | He's hidin’ out. He needs money and | fcod and clothes. He knows about you livin' up here in this isolated shack. He's got a gun. Now, if you got a lick o’ sense, Gramp, you'll move down to the village till we git our hands on Bpider.” “May take a week or mebbe a month afore yuh do.” Gramp shook his head. “Wolves been bothering my sheep and I got traps set. I gotta stay here and tend them. Reward offered for this here Spider's capture, be they?” “Five hundred dollars. But you fergit it. Five hundred dollars won't do nobody no good if they're six feet under.” Charlie had stayed an hour arguing, but Gramp couldn’t see the sense of abandoning his home because a measly eity gangster was running around loose. And so the sheriff had ridden off with a pl’OmlSe to drop by the next day. Spider's a slit your * ok X % RAMP saw the wicked, furtive gleam in his visitor's eyes and the thin, cruel smile on his lips, and de- eided he guessed Charlie had been right in saying the gangster would Just as soon kill as to eat his breakfast. “I ain’t got much time, old man, ‘Tell me where you keep your dough hid and tell it quick, if you wanta go on breathing.” “Suppose I tell and you take my money? I ain’t fool enough to think you'll go off an’ leave me alive. Nix, mister.” “Smart old fool, ain’t yuh?” Spider drove the muzzle of his automatic into Gramp's stomach. “Listen, you sour-pussed old buzzard, you get your cholce of a slow death or a quick one! Which’ll it be?” “Neither,” Gramp. Spider snarled an oath and pushed Gramp backwards. Gramp stumbled and fell with a flop into a chair. Spider pro- duced a length of rope and in less time than it takes tell, Gramp's hands were bound behind him. The gangster laid his gun on the table and picked up a knife. It was a sharp knife with a needle point. Spider pressed the point against Gramp's cheek and turned it. bellowed. “I can make this last a long while,” the gangster snarled. “Where's the dough?” Gramp too ka deep breath and looked at his tormentor. The man's black eyes held no hint of mercy or compassion. “It—it’s in a sack behind the chimney. There's a loose stone, fourth up from the bottom on the right-hand side.” said to EE gPIDER sneered triumphantly and *” flung the knife across the room. Pop watched where it fell under the sink. Then his eyes shifted to the blue automatic that still lay on the table. A sort of relieved shudder went through his frame when he saw it was still there. Spider had found the loose stone and removed it, was peering into the dark recess. “You gotta reach in about a foot,” Gramp said. “It better be there,” the gangster said. “For the good of your health, Pop.” “It’s there a'right,” said Gramp. He watched with a curious fascination as Spider reached inside. Spider didn't know it, but Pop was holding his breath. He held it for almost a minute. Then he heard a snap, a crunching thud. Spider yelled bloody murder and jerked his arm away. Or tried to. The arm came almost clear of the aperture and then stopped, checked by the short length of chain attached to the wolf trap. The jaws of the trap held Spider’s wrist fast. Spider yelled and cursed and screamed, but it didn’t do any good. ‘The opening was too small for him to get his other hand in to release the cross bar that held the chain firmly. Gramp had made sure of all that. Gramp knew how to catch wolves. It took Gramp two hours to get himself free. He wasn't able to reach the knife as he had planned. He had to saw through the ropes by rubbing them against the table's edge. By the time he was free, Spider McGee had fainted. Gramp looked at him sadly and shook his head. “I dunno,” he said, “as you're worth $500 at that.” Then he unsprung the trap, trussed Spider McGee up firmly and sat down to wait for the sheriff, Five hundred dollars was a lot of money, no matter which way you figured it.

He! ¢ kissed her and he was so happy he | did not notice that she did not re- turn it, that she drew herself away rather hastily from his embrace. Just before she closed the door to her | room, she called out to Duke, who had walked to the window and was looking out. “I'll have a selection for Thursday, Mr. Bradley,” she said. There \\a<‘ tnumph in her voice and on her face. “Thank you, lady fair,” he said. But there was no smile on his fm-e.‘ When the two men were alone, Madison went over to Duke and h(’ld out his hand. “Well, Duke, old boy, I hate to leave | you, too. Hope we see each other again soon. Then Tl give you a chance to win this money back. But now it's back to New York for me.” “New York? I thought you were going to_California.” “Yes, but with United Copper——" “Your secretary seems an able chap. | Of course, it's none of my affair, but if you go West, there is Santa Anita. Going to suggest you'd better take a look at it.” Madison thought for a moment. Then he clapped Duke on the back. “Hardly sooner said than done,” he cried. “Of course, I'm not needed in New York, The office can function without me. But those oil commis- sions are another matter. Il go down, talk to Boswell, send some wires and order the plane. You'll go along with me, won't you? Expect you at the hangar as soon as you make it.” He was half way out the door be- fore he had finished and Duke had run to the phone, and asked the op- erator to connect him with his room. He was so jubilant that he fairly yelled when Tip answered. “Don’t unpack my things. Take the bags down, as are. I'm off to California with Madison.” “Oh no, you're not,” came a voice he did not recognize. He wheeled around. In the doorway stood Carol. He knew it was no time for words. In one leap he was across the room and out into the hall. “You come back,” shrieked Carol. He was already turning the corner far down the corridor. * she shrieked again. He was out of sight. She tried to call again, but she could not. There was only one thing to do. Picking up the train of her neglige and throw- ing it over her arm, she ran after him. When she reached the top of the long stairway leading to the lob- by, he was at the bottom. She ran down quickly. She saw Duke go into the next room. She followed. It was filled with people sitting at little tables, drinking cocktails. She was not con- scious of them any more than she was of her flimsy garments. All comven- k “I'll tell you good-by | Al | released after with | _ tions were forgotten. Duke, “Come back here, you!” she shrieked in so loud a tone that it could be heard above the chatter and the laughter, above the tinkle of the ice in the glasses, above the music of the orchestra. She only half knew that the music missed several bars, that every one in the room had turned and was staring at her. The one thing she fully knew was that Duke had disappeared. Then she felt some one take her arm in a firm gras; “Take the other,” said Dr. Beard to the masseuse who had rushed up to her. “Let me go,” cried Carol, struggling with them. She managed to free one arm. She swung it around and hit the masseuse squarely in the eye. “Miss Clayton,” came a sharp cry. Automatically she looked in the direction of the sound—right camera leveled at her. sound like an explosion, & sputtering of light in her face, as the flashlicht went off. The man who had called to her was running from the room. ‘What a picture he had for the sen- sational papers She must get There was a Carol’s nerves scem to be completely out of control. And now she has let herself in for a scandal. Will it af- fect her marriage to Hartley? Will she follow him and Duke to Cali- fornia? Don't miss tomorrow's swift- moving installment.
