If the American Le gion puts on a professional smoker. no objection will be raised, it was in dlcated. All bills against the building for July wero allowed at last night's meeting and ordered paid. The Pa risian Tours expenses were a little more than $600, slightly more than was expected, but leaving a profit of more than $1200.

Supply Of Tacks On Burns Highway Nearly Exhausted The supply of tacks on the 5- Bcnd-Burus road between Brookings and Burns Is almost exhausted, reports Wesley Hill, driver of the stage, who made a recent round trip with only one puncture. Threo or four tackH have lodged in tho tires of the stage trailer each trip slnco a box of tacks was spilled, more than two. weeks ago.

In n pro nounced nnul twnng. "hut I heard you say you were Captain Hugh Pnunmontl. I guess you're one of the men I've, come across the water to see. My card." Much glanced nt the pasteboard lan guidly. "Mr. Jerome K. Green," he imtr mured. "What n Jolly sort of name." "See here. Captain," went on the other, suddenly displaying a badge hidden under his coat. "That'll put you wise. That badge Is the badge of the police force of the United Stute of America; and that came force li humming some at the moment." IU sat down beside Hugh, and bent for ward confidentially. "Them's a prom inent citizen of New York city been mislaid, Captain; and, from Informa tion we've got, we reckon you know quite a lot about his whereabouts. What about Hiram C. Potts?" "What, Indeed?" remarked Hugh. "Sounds like a riddle, don't It?" "Vnu'vc heard of him. Captain?" "l-'cw- people have not." "Yes but you've met him recently," said the detective, leaning forward. "You know where he Is, and" he tupped Hugh on the knee Impressively "I want him. I want to take him back In cottonwool to his wife and daughters. That's why I'm over on this side. Captain, Just for that one purpose." "There seem to me to be a con siderable number of people wander ing around who shore your opinion "He Must Be a Huuiar Sort of Cove." about Mr. Potts," drawled Hush. "He must be a popular sort of cove." "Populur ain't the word for It. Cap tain," said the other. "Have you got him now?" "In a matter of speaking, yes." an swered Hugh, beckoning to a pacing waiter. "Three Martinis." "Where Is he?" snapped the detective eagerly. Hugh laughed. "Being wrapped up In cottonwool by somebody else's wife and duugh ters. You were a little too quick. Sir. (Jreen; you may be all you say on the other hand, you may not. And these days I trust no one," The American nodded his head In approval. "Quite right," he remarked. "My motto und yet I'm going to trust you. Weeks ago we heard thing on the other side, through certain channels, as to a show which was on the rails overe here." Hugh nodded. "Then Hiram Potts got mixed np in It; exnetly how. we weren't wise to. Hut It was enough to bring me over here. Two daya ugo I got this cable." He produced a bundle of papers, and handed one to Drum tnond. "It's In cipher, as you see; I've put the translation underneath." Hush took tho cablegram and glanced at It. It was short and to the point: "Captain Hugh Drummond, of Half Moon street, London, Is your man." Ho glunccd up at the American, who drained his cocktail with the air of a man who gutlslled with life. "Captain Hugh Drummond of Half Moon street, London, Is my man," he chuckled. "Well, Cuptaln, what about It now? Will you tell me why you've come to Purls? I guess It'w something to do with tho business I'm on." r'or a few moments Hugh did not reply, and the American seemed In no hurry for an answer. Home early arrivals for dinner suuntered through the lounge and Drummond watched them Idly as they passed.

He look- in the short, dark heard the lumiucu late, though slightly foreign evening clothes; evidently a wealthy French utiiii giving a dinner party In the res tuuruut by the way the head waiter was hovering around. And then sud denly his ojes narrowed, and he sat motionless. "Ate you Interested In the psyeholO' gy of gambling, Atr. tlreen?" he re umrked. turning to the somen hat astonished American. "Some people cannot control their eyes or their mouth If the stakes nre big; others cannot control their hands. For In .stance, the gentleman oppjslte. Dues anything strike you particularly with regard to hhu?' The detective glanced ucross the lounge. "He si-cms to like hitting his knee with his left hand," he said, after u short Inspection. "Preelfcly." murmured Hugh. "That U why I cume to Purls." CHAPTER IX. In Which He Has a Near Shave. ONE. "Cuptaln, you havo mo guessing." The American bit the end off another cigar, and leaned buck In his chair. "You suy that swell Frenchman with the nailers hovering about like Ileus round u dug's tall Is the reason you came to Paris. Is he kind of friend' ly with Hiram C. Potts?" Drummond laughed. "The tlrst time I met Mr. Potts." he remarked, "tttut swell Frenchman was Just preparing to put u thumb screw on his second thumb." "Secoud?"' The detective looked up quickly. "Tho tlrst had been treated earlier In the evenlug," answered Drunimoud quli tly. "It was then that I removed your mllltouulro pal." The other lit his clgur deliberately. "Suy, Cuptaln," he murmured, "you nln't pulling my leg by any, chance, are you?" "I am not," said Drummond short ly. "I was told, before I met him, that the gentleman over there warf one of the boys. . . . He Is, most distinctly. In fuel, though up to dale such mutters hau not been much In my Hue, I should put him down as a sort of super-criminal. 1 wonder what name he is passing under here?" The American ceased pulling ut his cigar. "Do they vuryV" "In England he Is clean-shaven, pos sesses u daughter, and answers to Curl Peterson. As he Is at preoent I should never have known hhu, but for that little trick of his." "Possesses a daughter 1" For the tlrst time the deteclhe displayed truces of excitement. "Holy Smu'iiul It cun't he him!" "Who?" demanded Drummond, Hut the other did not answer. Out of the corner of his eye he wus watch ing three men who had Just Joined the subject of their tulk, und on his face wus a dawning amazement. He wulted till the whole party hud gone Into the restaurant, then, throwing aside his caution, he turned excitedly on Drummond. "Are you certain," ho cried, "thai .that'll the man who has been monkey ing with Potts?" "Absolutely," said Hugh, "lie rec ognized me; whether hu thinks I rec ognized him or not, I don't know." "Then what," remarked the de tective, "li he doing here dining with Hocking, our cotton trust man; with Stelnemann, the German coal man; and with that other guy whose face is familiar, but whose name I can t place? Two of 'em at any rate, Cap tain, huve got more millions than we're ever likely to have thousands." Hugh stared at the American "Lnst night." he snld slowly, "he was foregathering with a crowd of tlw most ntroclous ruggcd-trouscrcd revolutionaries It's ever been my luck to run up ugalnst." "We're In It, Captain, right In the middle of It," cried tho detective, slop ping Ills leg. "I'll eat my hut If that Frenchman Isn't Franklyn or Lib stein or Huron Darott or any other of the blamed mimes he calls himself. He's a genius; he's the goods. Geol" he whistled gently under his breath. "If we could only lay him by the heels." For a while he stared In front of him, lost In his dream of pleusunt anticipation ; then, with a short laugh, he pulled himself together. "Quite a few people have thought the same, Captain," he remarked, "and there he is still drinking high balls. "You say ho was with a crowdr of revolutionaries last night. What do' you mean exactly?" "Bolshevists, Anarchists, members of Hie TloTio-vtofkniiTiT'itveiiTI-ilie. money brlnsde," answered Hugh. "Hut rtctiiie inn n moment, Waller," A mnn who hud been hovering round cume up promptly. "Four of 'em, Ted," snld Hugh In n rapid undertone, "Frenchmnti with "Righto, Old Deanl" Returned the Walter, "but Don't Hope for Too Much." a beard, a Ynnk, nnd two Bodies. Do your best." "Hlght-o, old beanl" returned the waiter, "but don't liupn for too much.'" He disappeared unobtrusively Into the restaurant, nnd Hugh turned with n laugh to the American, who was staring nt him In amazement. "Who the devil Is that guy?" nuked the detective. "Teil Jermugham son of Sir Pnt rlrk Jcnntighnm, Hart., and .Lady Jem Ingham, of Jernlughum hall, Ituttund. F.iiglund." answered Hugh, still grin ning. "We may be crude In our methods, Mr. Green, but you must ad mit we do our best. Incidentally. If you want to know, your friend Mr. Potts Is at present turkeil between the sheets nt that very house. He went there by airplane (his inornln.'." He waved n bund toward Jerry. "He was the pilot." The American was slinking his bend a little dazedly. "We've got to get busy on what your friend Peterson's little worry Is; we've then got to stop It home old how. Now, does noth ing Mirt of strike you?" He looked keenly ut the soldier, "ltevolutlon- nrles, Holshevlits, pnld agitators lust night; International lliiunelers this evening. Why, the broad outline of the plun Is ns plnlu ns the nose on your face; und It's Just the sort of gumc that man would love. . , ." The delectlm staled thoughtfully at the end of his cigar, and a look of comprehension begun to dawn uti Hugh's face. "Great Scott! Mr. Green," he snld, "I'm beginning to get you. What was defeating me was, why two men like Peterson and l.uklligtou should he mixed up with last night's crowd." I.iiklngton I Who's iJiklngton?" asked (he other quickly. 'Number Two In the combine," said Hugh, "and a nnsty mini." 'Well, wh'II leave him out for the moment," snld the American. "Doesn't It strike you that there are quite u number of pwplo In this world "who would benefit if Kugluud became n sort of second Husslu? That such u thing would be worth money big money? That such a Ihlng would In worth paying through the nose for? It would huve to be done properly; your small strike here, and j our small strike there, ain't no manner of use. One gigantic syndicalist strike all oer your country that's whut Peterson's playing or, I'll stake my bottom dol lar. How he's doing It Is another mut ter. Hut he's In with the big llnan- rtcrs: nnd he's using the tub-thumping Holshles as toots. Gndt It's a big scheme" he puffed twice nt his cigar "a darned big scheme. Your little old country, captain, Is, saving one, the finest on God's earth ; but she's In a funny mow). She's sick, like most of us are; maybe she's n little bit sicker than a good ninny people think. But I reckon Peterson's cure won't do nny manner of good, except ing to himself and thoso blamed cap italists who are putting up the dol lars." Then where th devil does Potts coino In," mild Hugh, who had lis tened Intently to every word the Am erican had said. "And the duchess of LumiMlilru's peurls?" 'Pearls!" begun the American, when the restaurant door opened suddenly und Ted Jeriilnghiim emerged. He seemed to be In a hurry, and Hugh hulf rose In his chair.
