MONDAY, JU.-= 2, =: BYNOPSIS: Rupert Joris has married Hope Devine on the re-~ Bound from Elinor Fleming, tho has jilted him because of his drink- ing. There seems to be some hope «that the marriage may even suc ‘ceed ; Dirk is uttracted to the mys- terious Hope, and loyal to his brother, and a little puzzled as to his feelings toward each of them. Rupert and Hope have gone to a lay, and Dirk has been there, but es another party. Now, nearing home, he sees a woman's figure standing in the shadow of the big gates. Chapter 17. NIGHT CHASE IRK glanced at the watch on his wrist. It was exactly two o'clock. He was curious, and did not which ended opposite his gates, but, dimming his lights, drew up to the curb, and waited. Perhaps the wom an would see him. Perhaps not. At dany rate, it was not in his direction Jphe had signaled. She appeared not to see him. A car came presently past the gates, | ‘and halted some twenty feet below |The figure emerged from the shac ow and went swiftly toward it. in | the light of the car-lamps Dirk saw Hope's face, and, as the cape fell} z | back, her snow-white satin gown | She stepped into the car, and was| . gone. Dirk, too, was gone. He could not #stop her, perhaps, but he could fol slow. Whatever her errand, she ‘should not go alone. The car in| | which she rode—a black and green taxi, a pirate taxi—was flying to ward the south. Dirk flew silently S after it. through the empty streets. * The green taxi entered Broad ; way, flew through Yonkers into Man y hattan. There, at Dyckman Stfeet, ; it turned into Riverside Drive where all traffic signals were suspended at this hour. At Seventy-second Street it mounted the speedway, racing like mad to Fifty-seventh, and there serpentined eastward, avoiding) pauses for red lights. | in the west Forties, near Sixth Avenue, it drew to the curb before a@ brownstone dwelling that still housed a fashionable speak-easy. For the fraction of a second it paused while a man who had been waiting Dirk saw him as he came, slim and dapper and quick. The door of the taxi closed behind him, and the } driver turned with the traffic into Fifth Avenue. There he was torced to pause, and Dirk, pausing too, drew his car abreast of the taxi. } t it bad been his intention, if such a situation occurred, to speak to Hope, to take her aboard his own car, and accompany her wherever } she might be bound. Since the acw ) passenger had come aboard, how \ ever, he had abandoned such an idea. He had even a feeling that he should * cease following her. Her errand was| no more than a rendezvous. perhaps, | and he, himself, merely a spy. He could see her now where a light from the Avenue fell across her face and that of the man beside her. The man was dark, youthful. rather handsome. He was talking rapidly, inaudibly, with Hope, mak } ing quick foreign gestures with his hands. She sat staring before her, catching the cloak together at ber throat, her eyes wide and thoughtful, her face pale. “es lights went green and they darted forward, flew swiftly southward, then at a red light, east- ward again. They had reached Sec- ond Avenue in the upper Twenties, a dismal neighboyhgod. Beneath the {elevated tracks aftaffic light blazed suddenly, permitting the green taxi by a hair’s breadth to fly ahead. Dirk would nave followed, but an officer beside the red signal had an Vacye on him. When he was released to follow, the green taxi, having ar east again. had disappeared m Dirk flew along First Avenue, al- st deserted now, and along the pace trin There was no sign of the reen taxi. His half-formed resolve to give up plowing had been accomplished for im. There was nothing to do now t return home. It had been hardly ent anyhow trailing her like this, en her errand was patently a ret one. lis Intentions in the beginning id been honorable enough. Some jing, he supposed, had called her t—something she could not tell upert, and he, himself, had not en there to tell. Wearing Rupert's wels, she was not safe without a rotector, a body-guard of some sort.

Yet acceptance was not easy, he told himself, as he rode toward home. He had made himself respon- sible for this girl, for what she might be, for what she might do. If he had not vouched for her, plead- ed and schemed and lied for her, she wouid not have remained in the house. Now that he had intrenched her there, he must protect the house and Rupert. Again, the man might not be her lover, or even—as had natu- rally suggested itself to Dirk—her confederate in crime. She might her- self be a victim, going to her death. He put the thought from him. She had moved with a sureness, a con- fidence born of familarity with the thing she did. To put out a drag-net for the taxi, to track her down, would expose and compromise her. The escapade might be innocent enough. The time might come when she would tell him al} about it. He had made a note of the taxi’e number, and of the hour it disap- peared. Its destination would not be | difficult to trace. A Manhattan taxi- driver would certainly remember 2 Westchester pick-up. Reaching home, he instructed old David, the head gardener, who slept in the lodge, not to lock the gates. and in his cwn room, near the stair he waited, still dressed in his eve ning clothes, his door ajar, listen ing for Hope’s return. Waiting. he knew that it was neither the house nor Kupert he de sired to protect. It was Hope. What ever she had done, he wished shield her from its consequences, even from discovery. to NCE it occurred to Hope might already have re turned, and he crossed the hall, knocking on her door—tightly, that Rupert in the next room might not hear. There was no sound. and he turned the knob. It yielded, and he went inside. The room was in order for the night, a lamp burning beside the him that smoothly turned bed. Something else 1 St, Louis had occurred to Dirk. There was a | Detroit chance that Hope had left the gems behind when she slipped out. If so, much of his anxiety as to her safety on her motives would be relieved The door leading to Rupert's room was closed, but the bolt was 10 longer draw. Dirk moved softly to the stand beneath the long gilt- framed mirror. It was set now in orderly fashion with pear! and silver toilet accessories, all very new. He opened the single drawer below the mirror. Handkerchiefs neatly folded. veils, gloves. ... He turned through them without compunction. There was nothing else. Perhaps Rupert had acquainted her with the safe in the paneled wall of this room, a small cache where their grandfather had been accustomed to keep a bottle of old Bourbon and a few sacred memen- toes. Its door was invisible amid the wainscoting, and one had to know where to feel along the ridges for the hidden spring. Dirk found and pressed it. The ane! slid back, revealing the small dark aperture. Something was in side, a parcel wrapped in tissue paper. He flashed on a near-by sconce and unwrapped the package. It was no more than a brush and comb, a nail-buffer, a hat-brysh. They were mounted in imitation ivory and marked with a single red initial. It looked like the set that had been spilled from Hope’s bag the day before. Dirk rewrapped them wondering. lhey were certainly the set he had seen on the mirror-shelf when Hope had opened her door to say she would dress ang go for a.tide with him. Yet they were not marked with an “H,” but with an “L.” Perhaps they had belonged to Sefiorita Leon- or, the bareback-rider whose substi- tute Hope had been. Hope had no doubt fallen heir to them, intended to return them. Yet why hide them? They were not of sufficient value for that. There was nothing else in the cache. He touched the spring and the panel closed. No use looking further. If she had left the jewels, they would have been there. At twenty minutes of five he heard what was the almost noiseless clos- ing of the front door, and presently the faint stir of some one on the stair. He looked, and saw Hope, a shadowy figure in the dim hall, open and close her door without a sound. She was fe, at least, and she must never know. He must have either her voluntary explanation of this night, or else the opportunity to watch her unobspeved and = suspected.
