CHAPTER I Theodore Carson, inventor of an airship, rescues from a fugitive flyinR maohino called a helicopter, a beautiful younR girl. II 'and III Carson is infatuated by her and takes her whero sho can communicate "with her friends. UUAt-XtJK IV. A LEAP I.TTO SrACE. MR SHAYNE met Carson wltn something less than the steely coldness with which he was wont to freeze the vitals of the man representing an undeveloped business opportunity. "I am tinder great obligations to you, Mr. Theodore," said he. "for your serv ice U my niece. To be entirely frank. I bould not hare appropriated the time to call on any business account" Mr. Carson felt repelled. He traced the "Mr. Theodore" to Captain Har rod's mode of referring to him. "I am sorry," said he, "that you have gene even an Inch out of your way on account of any fancied obligations. 1 prefer the basis of business." "By Jove." said a voice at his elbow, "you ought to be able to meet him on that basis. Shayne." Carson's ear was affronted, his erres tautened by the voice. Shayne waved the man away. "But," went on SUberberg, "it seems to me, old chap, we'd vastly better put - toe whole thing on a basis of break fast first. Send this good man aft and left fall to." vxrson wneeica ronna ana stared SUberberg in the face curiously, with the Impersonal disfavor of one study teg the picture of some noxious thing, like a Gila monster or a feast of vul ture. 'Thank you." said Theodore. "I have breakfasted, and In gotfd com- Vsy" "By glory, my man," shouted Sllber feerg, "If you say another word" Carson turned upon him. and Sllber Berg sank Into a seat Carson walked hack to the engine room, saying that he would look the craft over and see Mr. Shayne after breakfast SUberberg conceived himself vastly insulted by this fellow they bad picked up aad gave his host rather a bad half hour. "We owe it to blm to allow htm to be a little nasty," said Shayne. "Think what be did for Virginia, yon know. SUberberg." "By Jove." cried SUberberg. "I would rather she had er that Is. 1 would aot allow any service even to her to atone for such an Insult I don't al low any one to He must leave the &oc Shayne, or I will." "But his machine may be worth whUe," urged Shayne, using what ho Judged would be a valid argument with his guest "An idea Is an Idea, Max, and this art of flying needs Im provement" "No Idea," Insisted Max, "is worth that much. Suit yourself, Mr. Shayne. hut as for me" SUberberg waved his hand, closing the debate. As they rose they detect ed Wiener standing behind them, bat hi hand, as if awaiting a word with them, or eavesdropping, as the case Bight have been. "Well," said Shayne rather angrily. "I Just wanted to say." replied WIz aer, "that I know what this young fellow's proposition is. And If you don't find blm reasonable to deal with come to me. I've seen his model. It ain't protected, of course, and I can build one like it in a few weeks with Money enough. I'll learn him to butt la aaa take a easterner from mel" "Whn inventors fall out" began Elmyna "Monopolists get their books in," supplied SUberberg. "Let's take the fool north and see what he's got" "Most sensible thing you've said," re plied Shayne. Carson waited In glum silence until the second descent of tho lift, refus ing to occupy it along with SUberberg. Bhayne urged him to stay aboard for the night trip to Chicago. "The weather north," said Shayne. "la the mildest known for March. We can discuss your project Mr. Theo dore, over our highballs going up. Come with us." Very well, said Mr. Theodore, ho woald go. with many tbanks. Ho wondered about the niece and SUberberg. but bo asked no questions He strode directly to tbe lift and went aboard tbe Roc. It was late In tbe afternoon when they took on two la dies-Psycho and Mrs. Shayne. The ladles vanished Into tho cabin with SUberberg. "What do you think of tbe weath er?" asked Shayne of Carson. "The low bus reached Omaha," re plied Carson, "and has deepened rap idly. We ought to get Into stiff south winds soon. Increasing all tho way." "Let 'em increase." rejoined Shayne. "We'll make port quicker. If It should be northerly weather, now"- "We'd buve to moor?" queried Car son. MWarurallv." i about," snfii Carson, "Is a macfilnc tnnt COUIII HinKC uiiii'iiku nti'u " fiercest gale quicker than this flying palace can do it tonight." "Oh. yes." lightly replied Shayne. "I've hml 'cm offered me that would do It In an hour In tho Inventor's mind." The earth was a concave cup with tho setting sun a flaming wick on ita rim. To the north was n huge black accumulation of clouds which seemed swelling with startling rapidity, but the wcathcrwlse aviators kuew It to bo their own headlong flight whlc' brought the clouds nearer with such speed, giving them the swift upheaval which mimicked the approach of a storm. The silence was absolute save for the wulllctl exhaust of the engines and the purr of the driving screw astern, for tbe Hoc kept pace with the blast, and the light breeze that swept her decks was from prow eastwardty to stern as she edged up into the great cyclonic whirl and outfooted the wind. Carson walked aft Looking rather concerned, the engineer was turning his ear downward, listening to tho sullen roar that now droned up from the ground. "A deuce of a wind," said ho to Car ton. "11 car It howl and not a leaf atlrrlng up here." "Yes." assented Carson, listening, "It Is blowing. But what of It?" "Ob, nothing," replied tho engineer, looking at the manometer, "only lid you ever try to bring one of theso gas bags to in a gale, uot to mention nursing her Into tho boss' Chicago garage? Hey?" "No," answered Carson. "It must be difficult" The young man wanted his serious talk with Shayne. So far they had spoken nothing but generalities, and he felt frustrated, held off, played with as a skillful fencer plays with a novice. And he had had no talk with Psyche. This made him Irritable. Miss Suarex stood by the rail look Lag off Into the blackness, her hair heavy with a mist now Just becoming perceptible. Mrs. Shayne from the cabin door looked forth at the young woman with distinct displeasure, for Virginia had Just said a very naughty thing to Mr. SUberberg In a golf dis cussion which had unaccountably aroused her temper. And up walked young Carson to make things worse. Virginia, taking hltmfor SUberberg, turned on blm a face hot with anger, stood looking at him a moment Then all the displeasure faded away, and something quite Irreconcilable with It took Its place. Because she held out both hands and looked so divine Carson took them and held them close. "My robberr sho whispered. "Are you a stowaway? Are you escap ing?" (To Be Continued.) Hotel Arrivals.

Burton, who returned from Beverly, Mass., to day, disparaged tho candidacy of James R. Garfield for governor of Idaho. Ho Intimated the national ad ministration might regard his nom ination as a slap. Judge Klncaldo, who has Just re turned from New York, where it is believed ho endeavored to secure the Indorsement of his candidacy for the gubernatorial nomination by Theo doro Roosevelt, will probably not be a candidate. He will keep out of the race, bis friends say today, unless there Is a deadlock. If thero la no nomination by tho time the third bal lot 1b reached In tho convontlon, ho may enter tho race.
