All three grinned and * chuckled. Hawkins had been “on their nerves” for nearly a month. He was a bright, breezy young fellow, just out of col- ambition, He had offered his services down badly, with his kit. satchel. To his surprise the burglar had followed him straightway. When both were cornered by the police, the {ndignant “yeggman” proved to be an honest roofer and a rival paper gave the episode a full column, much to the chagrin of the Eagle. into a trap set by michievous politi- clans, who arranged so that he got an interview from the wrong candidate. w tor Dubiously.

A buggy came tearing down the road. The driver, a man, was thrown out as the animal attached to it swung around a sharp curve in the highway. The other occupant, a young lady, shrank back in the seat, terrified and helpless. Hawking did his duty. At some risk he halted the runaway.
