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."

"Hal You admit it was you?"
this from Mr. Meees.
"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.
