The black waa racing up the canyon at a dead run. Larry aaw the sky light up aa the landing field llghla went on. The plane had come In high, waa circling the field now. Larry turned up a trail leading up to the plaint. When he reached the top he waa lee than a mile from the Held. The ahlp waa on the ground, the motor car beside It, both standing out aharply against the light from Bentley's hangar. Larry had the binocular out In flash, studied 'h-. lan? and the men beside It Ther:- aa Bentley the one with ridinc boots talk ing to the pilot They talked for several minutes.

Each time the airline beacon swung around he dropped flat No use letting some sharp-eyed look-i out catch sight of him, if Bentley' bad a lookout It took him IB minutes to get within 100 yards of the building. . Bentley, the pilot and the others were still inside. The automobile was parked beside the hangar doors. Larry crawled along unto he eould reach out and touch on of the lights, marking the boundaries of the field.

Bentley' own ship was nearer. Ot he could cross to the plane, he could slip inside Bentley's own hip, overhear everything that was Kid. It would be the last place eyd think of looking for him. The mechanic climbed down tram the ladder. Larry froze1 th wall. But the man. Bed, walked to a bench at the.

Before th mechanic turned (round he was crouched in th luggage spac behind the pilot's 1 Met The window at the left was open. He could hear the mechanic Whistling softly as he climbed the udder again. another voice answered. "Thought I saw something moving down there when the beacon swung around. I went down to look and found this black, staked out on a lariat It's a Hayhook horse, Mike." "Get the rest of the men and circle the field." Bentley snapped his orders. "Here, Bill, come along with me. Bring those guns from the ear. We'll search the hangar." a a a T ARRY pulled back into the darkness of the cabin as the hangar doors closed and the room filled with light Bentley was searching the lockers, slamming doors, cursing. "Turn on the field lights, all the llghtsl" Bentley yelled. "Get out side, Bill, see it you can And any thing. I'll wait here. We've got to get that fellow. He know too much. Bill muttered something, slammed the door as he went out Larry held his breath, praying that Bentley wouldn't think of his plane. There were few hiding places in the bare hangar, and that meant fewer places for Bent ley to search. Larry heard Bentley running up tne iron steps to the tower atop the building. He thought of risking a dash out of the hangar, decided against it His chance was gone in that second. Bill returned shouting, "Mike Mike look what I found!" Bentley came crashing down the steps. "Field glassesl Where did you get those. Bill?" "Just outside the lights. Almost stepped on them." "He s either in here, or he's got dear away," Bentley said. There I waa a pause. Larry could almost feel Bentley's eyes on the cabin I plane. Then I "Bill, get that tommy-gun from I the locker. Put a row of holes : along the side of the cabin there just behind the seat" He raised his voice. "Hey, you. Inside the plane. Do you want to come out now, or shall we drag you out?" "I'll come out!"
