Bewildered to a point where he felt
remorse almost as profound as would
have been his lot had he been schem­
ing to ruin Ellen Richards' property,
John Belknap, no longer masquerading
as John Steele, left the girl's office
and made his way tq the hotel where
he bad IDed when In town.
He ate a perfunctory meal and went
slowly up the stairs to his cubicle of
a room. He dropped to the creaking
bed and sat there, hands dangling be­
tween his knees for a long Interval.
He was In a pinch; beaten In hts
lofty ambition to champion the op­
pressed; a growing love bad oeen
burled back Into his teeth. But be
laughed! He laughed, sltti ig there
alone In the bare little room, and the
laugh had In It a defiance, a challenge
to the fates which had woven this net
of circumstances about him. What
the next step would be he hadn’t even
a guess. He needed time to think that
out. but of two things he was certain;
Corbel was not going to drive Ellen's
company to the wall and Ellen was
not to go on thinking for much longer
that his father was behind the trouble
which oad been made for her. With
those ends accomplished, this other,
this cold weight about hts heart, would
he ready for consideration.
But he could not stay here In Shoe­
string. It would avail him nothing; It
would only bring him continued dls
tress.
He paced the room, pondering, and
came to a halt beside the spotted little
dresser. Last week's Shoestring Ban
ner lay there and he stared at the
smudgy line«, unseeing. . . . Unsee­
ing until his Idly roving eyes fell on
the heavily typed words:

He leaned lower and read wbat was

was a man out of a job. a good man.
I'uul Corbel was advertising for

He began to pack hastily, move­
ments a hit feverish.
He caught Bradshaw just as the
sheriff was leaving the Jail.
“Something new?” the sheriff asked
as he turned hack and read the ex­
citement In the hoy's eyes.
“A lot. . . . About something you'd
never guessed I”
He plunged Into his story with the
pronouncement that he hud been living
and worklDg and fighting under an­
other name. The other's Jaw dropped,
and for an Interval his gray eye« were
hard with suspicion, but at John
talked on, earnestly, leaving out noth­

with Ellen, that look altered and mel­

“Don't get up!" John Ignored the

"Well, you're about the last person
I expected to see walk In here this
morning!"
John looked at him with close scru­

to understand." He thought the man's
face changed a trifle and that a flicker
of dismay showed In those dark. In­
telligent eyes. “1 didn't figure that
you’d expect me."
“Up from Chicago?"
And now a decided, hot still subtle,
alteration was In the eyes; Corbel
seemed to be steeling himself, rallying
all Ills quick wits to an emergency.
“No. I haven't been In Chicago for
over six weeks. I’ve been at Shoe­
string, running the Richards job."
“Shoestring? Richards?" Ills conn

“Why, yes. Didn’t you know. Cor­

the other In open hostility. “I sup­
