Orowi leia iivin Chapter TATE TROOPER WATSON was In any off his heavy gauntlets and reached inside his coat. As his numbed fingers drew forth the plug of strong tobacco he gazed bitterly around him at the bleak landscape. "For once the papers are right, it's going to snow," he rumbled to himself, eyeing the ?ray pall closing In from the north west. "Rum Boulevard" was the nickname given this stretch ot lone ly highway, and It waa along here that Watson and his confrere! had spent their fruitless vigil, having Te hit been "tipped off" that a "whiskey caravan" was coming through. Far ahead, breasting one ot those rolling swells, an automobile came Into sight. With languid eys the State Trooper stooped over to make a minor adjustment to the motor feed-line, which bad been giving trouble and when be straightened up again he was surprised to see that the approaching car was much nearer the spot at which he bad halted than wns possible with any regard tor the State Speed Law, Officer Watson started to swing his motorcycle around to the road. But before he could complete the maneuver the onrushing car came hurtling by, the sole occupant crouched over the wheol like a man racing against death. The State Trooper's whlBtle Bounded In frantlo blasts as his motor roared Into action and be darted after the reckless driver. Somowhat to his surprise, his ahrlll warnings were heeded. The car ahead came to a swaying, screech. tng halt, with brakes squealing and klddlDE tires scoring tne roaa Officer Watson galled majeatlcally alongside the driver and rested one toot on the running board. The car was a gleaming brown coupe of nensive make, with an unusually powerful motor under Its hood. The window at the left was down, de spite tho nlpplog chill of the air, end the driver's bead and shoulders projected, awaiting the Trooper's snnroach. Watson saw a distinguished- looking gentleman ot early middle age, his Ane, clear-cut features graced by a meticulous moustache and goatee. His face was vaguely familiar to the Trooper, but the It cenae-plste on the machine bore no sacred numerals. However, the Trooper did not bring forth any of the time-honored greetings between tralllo officer end speedster, such as, SSay. where d'you think you're goln'T' or "Where's the fire?" iDstead, be flipped open his little book and pro duced a pencil stub from the band of his cap. "Well, Mlater, what's the story this timet" ha Inquired with a deceptive show ot patience. TUG drlvor's reply was tt calmly uttered as hit heavy and la bored breathing would permit. Hit cheeks were whipped with color tnd his exhaled breath formed a frosty Central Point CENTRAL POINT, My S. (8pl.) Mr. and Mrs. J. H.

To begin with, he had been out nearly the whole of the night before on a special detail that had turned out to be a wild-goose-chase, and now he was tired, chilled and disgruntled. He ran his motorcycle off the macadam road and onto a level patch of hard, frozen ground. Balancing himself on the tilted machine by one out-thrust leg, he pulled vapor In the air. "I wns shot at. Officer. Ambushed, about two miles back on that road. Look at the wind shield!" He climbed out stiffly and stood in the road while Watson Btared In astonishment at the glass plate. A I surprise, Wat.on't shr'M warnings were bullet had certainly winged Its way through there at an angle that must have missed the driver's head by the narrowest ot margins. "There were three shots before I pulled out of range," the driver ei plained. "That first one nearly got me! After that 1 put on speed, but 1 heard the others hit the car. Let's look." . An Investigation soon revealed the course ot the other bullets. One had slithered oft the left door, the gouged brown enamel marking its path, while the third bad splintered one corner of the luggage grid. Offi cer Watson looked with renewed In terest at this dapper man who had ridden through a deadly ambush. Did you catch sight of the shooter?" be asked. The motorist looked at him Indig nantly. "Do you suppose I would get out and look tor this armed person who wns trying to murder me?" he demanded with biting snrcasm. "I kept going at top speed. There were no other cart In sight and I saw no one by the roadside," be added. In more reasonable tonos. Tho Trooper posed his usual ques tion. "Got any liquor In that carl' See here, Officer," Dufresno pro tested vigorously, "this Is ridicu lous. You'd bo far more usefully em ployed In going back along that road and trying to catch the person who takes pot shots at passing cars This was no careless boy with an air rifle. I'm going through Edge Hill. I'll report this to the polio there, ,and show them tho car. Cap tain Robinson knows me." The driver brought out hit wallet and extracted two cards.
