Nathalie had fled back lo her suite and locked herself behind, the steel door which guarded the entranve to it when Ferris who had not known that she had looked down and seen him, .glanced warily to the top of the siairs where she had been and said to SU'fano; "Any objection to taking me in to the dining room with you,. Cap tain? I could do with a bile of breakfast." "Absolutely not. Charmed to sit and chat with you a bit. As I've said, I've learned the name of the lawyer you're so keen to know. Stefano was entirely ready to com municate Sloan's name. By the lime Ferris saw Sloan. Sloan would he "in the It now" through Monty Delaine, and Nathalie's in terests entirely safe. Ferris could have the name anil welcome af ter he had paid Stefano ten thou sand dollars for it. "I heard you say It," Ferris in formed him at? he walked into (he high ceilinged room into which Stefano directed him. He had the air of entire proprietorship and ad dressed Stefano's butler as though there was no question of the au thority he had. "liacon and eggs, Niccoto. And make it snappy Wop. And ihf-n get your crew the hell out of here. But you stick around." "1 say what's this?" demanded Stefano sharply.- "Who told you the man's name or agreed that you could give him orders?" 1 Ferris looked at. him craftily and then laughed in his face. "He took them, didn't h"? I guess that's the answer. Who do you think hand picked the crew tlial's been working for you? "And .there they go out. On their way. "So now I guess we can get down to talking business," ob served Ferris, while the butler, who hail brought bis breakfast, walked to the end of ihe room but didn't vo out of it. "You've found out a lawyer's name. And I'm to slip you ten grand for it. Is that the plav as you figure it's coming off?" "To a hair," replied Stefano, and looked him quietly between the eyes. "You're to pay it and I'm lo receive it. When I tell you the lawyer's name, but not before." Ferris looked at him with hate. "Hut you t h re w a wine party last night, didn't you? Ik' that sup posed to go into the expense ac counl?" i "Certainly not. That was a friend's generosity. Kvery hot lie of it gratis. No. that won't be tabulated in Ihe account." "Cm gbd to hear it," retorted Ferris calmly. "So your friend's generous, is he? He didn't size up like a veo hi; hearted guy tome. But I guess as a business man he knows His onions." "Who the devil are you talking about?" demanded Stefano, won dering suddenly if Ferris knew Monty was the donor of the cham pagne. "Found. I ain't wrong, am I? I guess 1 know when I've been sold out and double crossed. What about it?" 'pound?" and Stefano looked at him disgustedly and wearily, "1 never saw Found but once. The day I signed a lease with him. Yes I did, ioo. Once afterward when 1 j spoke to him about, an account wkh ins nanK ior a menu, rvouce. don't you, that I don't regard you as worth lyhu to?" "Yes." Ferris answered imper iurbably. "I notice every little thing. My dockers watched you go in and out that day." "Oh I dare say. But not that I care a curse." Stefano's tone was careless and taunting for he was losing patience very fast. "Who else did they see there who was specially interesting?" Ferris sat gazing at him briefly, his eyes hard as flints. Then he salt) : "She's upstairs!" "Who's upstairs?" Stefano's taunting manner did not change as he put the question. Hut as he spoke all interest left him concernin? the ten thousand dollars he had hoped to receive, and he thought only of .Nathalie. When Ferris spoke again he re solved that, come what might, he would not leave the house while Ferris was in It or until he was certain beyond perad venture that Nathalie was securely out of it. "Who's upstairs did you say. Captain?" said Ferris presently, his eyes drilling Stefano's hard. "So you want the name and all eh? Ail right. Nathalie Van Slaiek's upstairs." "Sure of it?" asked Stefano. as though it was of no importance. "Dead sure," announced Ferris. "I suppose you'd like it if 1 took a walk up." "1 fancy H'd be just as well not for you to attempt to." Stefano an swered hftn at once. "I'm certain it would In point of fad." He meant only that if Ferris made any attempt: to force himself on Nathalie he would leap at him and beat "him" to the floor. Hut Fer ris misunderstood a!l men like Stefano. He nodded: "That's good enough for me. 1 ain't, trying it after iasl ni;ht. iiiH I seen her with the make up off even if 1 did nearly eat a bullet." This meant nothing at. all to Stefano. He had no idea in the world that anyone had watched Nathalie from a tree and that she had been courageous enough to shoot at him. He got up hurriedly as Stefano leaned back in bis chair and put both hands into the pockets of his motor coat. "Keep 'em where they are. Cap tain." said Ferris, shakiiy. "I'm on my way out. Ami listen. give you credit for something. You were a clever felia when you had the steel door put in and didn't slip me no duplicate key. I ought to have suspected then that you was goin; to sell out to Pound but 1 was dumb. I think I'll take a walk over to Brookville. So long." As he left, Stefano saw the, eyes of Niccolo, the spurious butler, an Wor the eyes of Ferris in a secret signal and it dawned on him that Niccolo was still in the long room on guard over him and certainly armed. Niccolo's hands were in easy sight with nothing in them, so Sfefann said nothing to him un t il h e r-ii w Ferri s reach 1 he open door at the end of the hall and-go r AINS IN GOOD RECONDITIONED USED CARS i Down Payment 1326 Essex Coach $100.00 g 1826 Essex Coach 110.00 g 1925 Essex Coach 110.00 g 1925 Hudson Sedan 200.00 1925 Dodge Touring 100.00 ? 1923 Essex 4 Touring 90.00 g 1925 Star Touring 50.00 1924 Hudson Coach 100.00 g Hudson Speedster 50.00 g Hudson Truck 100.00 f CLETRAC TRACTOR jf Model M.

Ore., Dec. 12. With the aid of w'oolen blankets be placed under the wheels of his automobile, A. If. Dixon 'of Rend, today .was here after crossing successfully the blizzard swept pass of the McKen zie. , Dixon said he battled a blizzard four hours atop the mountain. He said he and his wife, who accom panied him. had about made up their minds to spend the night in the mountain blizzard when he thought of the blankets. out of the house. Then he said: "Niccolo." "Si, Signor." "You were present one night' Stefano reminded him pleasantly, and in Italian, "right in this room when a lady was diverted as she watched me at target practice?" "Si, Siguor," acknowledged Nic colo, and remembered vividly the night Stefano had shot at a candle the full length of the house and snuffed it out. A shiver went through him. "That same admirable weapon," Stefano assured him, "is in one of the pockets of my motor coat while we talk so agreeably. Which pocket, Niccolo?"- Stefano was not armed. Hut Niccolo made a gesture of despair and sat quietly in a chair with his hands on the ariu3 of it and kept them there. Me did not alter their position for two hours. Nor did Stefano move at all until a midden half muffled commotion somewhere in the ground surrounding The Firs caused Jiim to spring to his feet. To Be Continued Tomorrow.
