SERIAL STORY THE TERRIBLE EYE BY EDWIN RUTT COPYRIdHT, 143. nba acnvtcc, inc. TYCOON ONCE MORE CHAPTER XIX TONAH spoke almost as It Mr. Charming were not there. "If I catch the lug that tampered with thit dingus, I'll brain him." . "Hal" exclaimed Mr. Channing, Crinkling black brows at Jonah. "I recognize you now. You're that Itinerant photographer. Get the Jiell out of here." "I resent that," tald Jonah. "Come, come, boy," Calvin Meggs said Impatiently. "Put the picture on." "I," stated Mr. Channlng flatly, "am staying for no pictures." Mr. Mcggs settled himself com fortably. "You'd better, Henry. Because, unless this young man Is either a fool or a Uw, this picture concerns the abduction of my horse, Bucephalus." Mr. Channlng stayed. . "The Sins of the Fathers" was the only possible title for the pic ture that presently flashed onto the screen. And In this saga of shame, Mr. H. L. Channlng had the leading role. The play opened upon a sum merhouse, basking peacefully In sunlight. Its bask, however, was short-lived. From the rhododendrons, which had already established their pro ficiency at harboring villains, the villain of the piece emerged. The villain was carrying a two-gallon can. At the summerhouse he paused, glanced around with fox like furtiveness. Then, deliber ately, he emptied the contents of the can over the floor of the structure, and lit a match. "Father!" gasped Hildy, out of the darkness. "Fancy you an In cendiary!" Mr. H. L. Channlng groaned. Jonah, dialing, carefully, dis pensed with the milling scene bout the summerhouse. He got another picture. ' This time it was just a quickie, but adequate. A horse, a horse of much hair, was loping gently in the direction of the gatekeeper's lodge. Leading him, and legging it right along with him, loped Henry h. Charming. A cry broke from Calvin Meggs. "By gad" he shouted, ?I knew It You're a crook, Henry. A horse thief." "No, no, Calvin," said Mr. Chan nlng, in anguish. "It was all in the nature of a joke.'" The TerribleTEyeV' B thorough going exposer of evil, brought in the last act of the sordid drama. It showed Mr: Charming deliver. Ing the horse to the gatekeeper. It showed the gatekeeper leading the horse out to the road. It showed the gatekeeper striking the horse smartly on the flank. At that point, mercifully, Jonah topped the show. The lights went on. , Calvin Meggs was out of his chair, dancing in pure wrath. 'Til write the Jockey Club I'll write every steward from from Maine to California. Youll be disbarred, Henry Channing.- You'll be set down from the tracks. The world shall know of your depravity." VW.VIN," Mr. Channlng was 'THt making a recovery, "will you ('UKUpf" L'VOl Shut itnt'TH mtin TiaQUI UD.

"Certainly," said Mr. Channlng orazeniy. Me had decided to brazen it out. "It was only a joke. What are you fumine about. Cal- trin? You got your horse back." Jonah cleared his throat "If.1 ae said, "I were to flash a few more pictures, we might get one of a certain tumbledown house not far from here. Tethered be- blnd this house ..." "Stop!" roared Mr. Channlng. But Calvin Meggs had heard. "By gad," he exclaimed, "I see it 11. You and your confederates spirited my horse away. But your dastardliness did not stop there. You went further and substituted what I consider a rank selling- plater. You had this selling plater newly clipped, thinking to deceive me. But I was suspicious from the start Well, speak up, Henryl Do you deny these allega tions?" "It was a Joke, Calvin," moaned Mr. Channing, "I had no inten tion of keeping your money. My plan was to tell everything later on. Then wed all have had a drink and a good laugh." Mr. Meggs considered. "Henry," he said at last, "my inclination is to be big. On condition that you return my horse and my money, I shall let bygones be bygones." "Certainly, Calvin," said Mr. Channlng, with a relieved sigh. "That's decent of you, Calvin. Well, that's that. Now I must get back to the house." JUST then, in her pleasant and detached fashion, Mrs, Chan ning drifted into the Taj Mahal. .!'Oh. thersTyou are), lovey.'.! she I said, perceiving her lord. "Corby told me you were here, so I slipped out to tell you someone took my tiara, But oh, it must be a joke." "What?" boomed Mr. Channlng. "What are you saying? That someone stole your tiara?" "Yes, lovey." Mr. Channing's eyes bulged, then rolled upward. "Oh, Lord! Oh, Lord in heaven! Someone steals her diamond tiara worth $40,000 and . . ." "But, lovey dear, It wasn't worth $40,000. It was worth $250." "Clarissa," said Mr. Channing dangerously, "pull yourself to gether. What was worth $250?" "The replica of the tiara, dear." Mr. Channing sagged limply, with relief. "You had a replica made? You were wearing it to night?" "Why, of course, lovey. Do you think I'd be such a fool as to bring a tiara worth $40,000 out to a practically unprotected country side?" "Clarissa," said Mr. Channlng contritely, "I have underrated you. But we're wasting time. If there's 'a thief inside, he may be after the spoons. Come on!" "Oh, father!" said Hildy. "Wait a minute. I think Mr. Logan wants to talk to you." "Eh?" Mr. Channing paused. "Who the devil's Mr. Logan?" "Okay, Jonah," said Hildy. "Go in and pitch. Explain all about the Terrible Eye and don't settle tor a cent less than $200 a week." No, no," Jonah said quickly. "I I've revised my notions." "Jonah, you idiot! You'll never have ..." "Here!" shouted Mr. Channing. "Stop this chatter!" He eyed Jonah. "So you're Mr. Logan? Well, you report to me in my study tomorrow at 10 sharp. Cla rissa, as the hostess, you belong In the house. Calvin', It's t!mS you put in an appearance tonight. Come along, both of you." Ho was onco more the tycoon, the overlord. Mr. Meggs and Mrs, Channing followed him meekly. (To Bo Concluded) Aviutiou has now climbed in to the 2000-horsepower league. To utilize this higher power a four-bladcd propeller, with elec trically controlled pitch and combining all the features of two three-blnded propellers which rotate in opposite direc tions, has been perfected.
