SYNOPSIS: Colin Hewitt and Germaine Tremblay, on their way to deliver @ mysterious letter that hae been entrusted to Colin for Joe azarre, are caught in the fog and overhear @ conversation which tells them that the “club” to which they were going isa den of thieves, con- ected with the Mask, New York iNler whom Colin ts trying to bring Then turn back, but etermined to find Lazarre, '# discovered that he is in love with Germaine, Chapter 18 THE TWO VISITORS Ce sat up:in bed with a start, conscious at the same time both of voices and that he had overslept himself, He had flung himself down on the bed after supper solely with the idea of relaxing a little while be- tore strolling over to spend an hour or two with Germaine, and then, later, to pay a surreptitious visit to this Anatole Bouchard of whom she had spoken. It was dark now. The voices came from the next room through Ma- dame Frénier's fimsy partition. Two men—speaking in Freuch. _He knew who they were. They had arrived on the Belle Fleur late that afternoon. Madame Frénier had in- troduced them to him at the hotel. Laroeque and Bolduc, their names were. They had come over from Gaspé, they said, to catch the Bona- venture, which was due tomorrow, and were going up the coast to Sev- en Isignds. A brawny-looking pair. They were talking in low tones, but even low tones in the Hotel du Canada were tittle less than a broad- cast ‘shes greta the entire establish- “Sacré nom!” exclaimed a gruff volce. “I tell you, I do not like it, It was to be tonight if he discovered anything at that devilish club, but all afternoon there has been no sign ot bim. He should have been here. What do you think, eh?” Another voice answered—Bolduc’s obviously. “How do i know what to think?” : He boa me is ai jvoom opened and closed. Footsteps ;thumped down the stairs, Colin stared into the darkness. Ho was thinking fast now. it was clear enough that this Dolaire was the head of a bootlegging outfit of which this precious pair were a part. And what was obviously in the wind now was a sort of hi-jacking expedition, He could have looked on with utter complacency, mot to say applause, had it. not been for Lagarre. There would be a fight—and it would not be a bieodiess one. Dol- laire had evidently come prepared. A choice crowd aboard that schoon- er, beyond questfon} {t would proba. world would not miss the passing of was Lazarre. He could not afford to risk any. thing happening to Lazarre. He must warn Lavarre. That was imperative, Phe fog last night had titted just after midnight, and Germaine and he had returned to Cap 4 Orage withont further mishap. He had had the whole day in which to talk to Bouchard, but caution, perhaps an exaggerated caution, had prompted ‘him to wait until darkness had set in. But he wished now, in view of what he had just heard, that he haa gone during the day. He would have known now what to do—he would have known-whether or not he cared to trust Bouchard in-the firet place; and, secondly, whether or not Bov- chard: would be willing to act as guide. it had, apart from the element of time, one incaleulable advantage over a boat—it could be done much more secretly. HE STRUCK the match now and looked gt his watch. Half-past eight. Not so bad! He had thought it much later than that, It would take him, ‘say, half an hour a}l told to reach Bouchard’s shack and have a talk with the man. There was time enough, if everything sized up all right, he and Bouchard would be off at once, and he would have to make his peace later with Germaine for * gjmot keeping his appointment with ther this evening. ‘he police He knows noth- Sele toed.ont whet beeen” on ” “Damnation!” swore La “But that is-enough, ten’t it? will be on their guard.” "RAHI" Bolduc spat out again, “And suppose they are? They wil not know what to expect, and maybe he has come back?” “But, yes!” Colin could almost see the assertive shrug of Botduc’s shoulders. “Dollaire will not have the schooner off the cape for another two hours, and in any case be will wait for us. Run along!"

This baseball game promises to be mighty close with plenty of hard hitting. Both the Slugger and Guard squads are strong in the clouting departments. Besides this Bethel is expected to pitch for the Sluggers and his brand of hurling is well known here. For the Guards a pitcher who has been hurling with a Jacksonville City League team, and who is expected to play with the State League next year, will most probably ascend the mound. With these combinations at work fans will get more than a normal share of thrills.
