CHAPTER VIII—(Continued). “Don’t see or hear too much, and ilon’t tell me if you do.” advised Stan ton suddenly, and leaned forward The Mercury uttered a vibrant roar that cleared the Parkway for a quarter of a mile ahead, and leaped. Floyd kept his eyes upon the road tn front, carefully avoiding view of the hubbub left in their wake. He had a Ceetlng cllmp-e of one scandalized offi cer struggling with his rearing horse, as they thundered past, and he enter tained no doubt of the number In their rear. “She steers a little stiff.” Stanton ob served. twisting between a limousine and two carriages. "But we can fix that at the track. What?" “Two motor cycle policemen are just behind.” communicated Floyd, devour ed by silent mirth. “Had enough?" “I haven’t seen them yet. I can't let out the machine here, of course, but— was that a dog?” "Poodle.” "But it seems a'.I right." Around a curve ahead darted a blue- onlformed figure on a motor cycle, one arm raised. Stanton Instantly checked bls car. Floyd throwing out his hand In warning to those behind. There was a mad series of explosions from the Abruptly halted motor-cycles In pursuit. “You're under arrest!” shouted three voices at once, as the Mercury •’Id to a standstill. “Is it possible?" Inquired the driver, removing his goggles. Two more motor-cycle officers were coining up. three mounted on horses were arriving from side-paths. Sur rounded by the outraged eight and all the population In the neighborhood, the Mercury stood quiescent. “Will you follow to the police sta tion, or will we have to take you?” came the crisp question. “We've got your number.” Til follow wherever you like,” en caged Stanton. "Lead the way.” They started, preceded by one officer and followed by another, also by a ■habby young man on a bicycle Into the station they went, accompanied by their three attendants. The charge was three fold: exceed ing the speed limit by some fifty miles an hour, resis’lng arrest, and violating the smoke ordinance. That set forth, the usual Interrogatory was put. Stan ton replying with concise brevity. "Name and age?” "Ralph Stanton, twenty-six.” “Occupation?” "Automobile driver.” "Name of car?"

Stanton glanced that way, as Floyd ■was drawn to the other side of the room by his excited captor, but turned back to answer the remainder of the examination. When the ceremony was ended, he signaled to his mechani cian. "Come; I’ve got to go before the magistrate and give bail,” he summoned impatiently. Floyd came across to him, shining eyed and eag?a. "Stanton, that is a reporter; he wants us to tell him about your doing this. He needs a fresh story to make good with his paper—can't we give it to him?” Stanton surveyed bls companion, eyebrows lifted. "Why should we? The newspapers will get it, whatever we do. Come." "But he needs it; ft would help him,” Floyd urged. "He. he's thin and frayed out—Sunton, he looks hungry." “Do you want to help him?” the driver queried, astonished.

Stanton caught h'1s breath; a slow strong pulse of vague excitement began to beat in him, and thereafter was never stilled until a day when all his world crashed into blank stillness. They went on to the quiet French restaurant that Floyd had chosen; so recovering tone on the way that they contrived to disagree over the merits of rival speedometers and argued en ergetically all through the dinner. They spent a long time over the sim ple meal, enjoying themselves com pletely. But at last they sank Into a thoughtful silence, which Stanton was the first to break.
