SYNOPSIS Aboard the S.S. "Navarre,” bound for America, Michael Lanyard. reformed "Lone Wolf” of crookdom, is reunited with his son whom he thought dead. Lanyard is disappointed to learn that the boy, traveling under the name "Maurice Parry,” is a thief, but he hopes his son's interest in Fenno Crozier, lovely daughter of the wealthy Mrs. Fay Crozier, will prove a good influence. Maurice steals the famous Habsburg emeralds from Mrs. Crozier, substituting counterfeits. Lanyard retrieves the gems for Fay. In a bridge game. Lanyard exposes two gangsters, "Jack Knife" Anderson and "English Archie,” for cheating his son. Detective Crane warns Lanyard against their revenge. Soon the emeralds are stolen again and Lanyard is suspected when M. Pion, French detective, and Captain Pascal find the jewels in the latter’s trunk, only to learn that they are the counterfeits. Lanyard is puzzled, for he had returned these to Maurice. Just then the purser appears with the genuine emeralds, which were carelessly wrapped and left on his desk with instructions that they be deposited in the safe for Mme. Crozier. Despite the evidence. Lanyard cannot conceive of Maurice planting the zircons (false gems) in his trunk. During lunch, Maurice tells of going to Lanyard’s cabin and finding a suspicious acting steward. When the latter left, Maurice saw his father's trunk open and the emerald case planted in full view. To save his father, Maurice replaced the jewels with the zircons. That night, Lanyard is awakened by a thug, who pokes a gun into his ribs and refers to the card game episode. CHAPTER XVII “And now that is settled, can we ret on with our business?” “You ain’t in no more rush than 1 am, bo. I’m just here to tell you that we’re on.” "On to what?’ “The way you’ve broke in this son of yours to pull the old Lone Wolf stuff while you keep the highhat trade kidded. From now on we're in for a fifty-fifty cut on anything you put over—” “But who, please, are ‘we’?” ‘Me and the mob I work with—” “Jack-knife Anderson and English Archie?” “Ain't so dumb as you let on, are you? And that works both ways; 1 mean that fifty-fifty cut goes for anything you and the punk get away with that we tip you off to. Like these emeralds, now. When you turn them over, you get your full fifty.” “Your intelligence isn't functioning any too well if you don t know they’re with the purser.” “Y’ou won't get an awful lot on anything we don't know about. We never had no idea of taking the Crozier dame for them jewels before they’ve been put through the Customs.” “But you mean to when they are?” “We mean you will, for us. It’s too easy for you two, with the old girl so strong for you and the Crozier kid sweet on your punk.” “I see And if we, if my son and I, refuse—what then?” The mar. with the pistol gave a grunt and was for a moment silent as if listening to some noise in the passageway The pistol remained firmly planted, but Lanyard could see the head vaguely silhouetted against the window-port turn toward the door Its change of posttion enabled him to see more, that the face vas draped with a cloth below the nose But whatever the noise that had alarmed the gunman, it apparently was not repeated. His head swung back to Lan“You ain’t goin’ to refuse, fella—-

Even the Republicans havo softpedaled national issues in their private fights. Optimistic party leaders predictied that nearly 2,000,000 voters will parti ipate in the primary. In the 1932 primary with a hot three man contest for governor the Democrats polled a total vote of 816.773 to 1.815.245 for the Republicans. Any l

You go tryin' to r'ar back on us, I and right then your boy goes on the . spot.” . Not because he was unacquainted . with the grisly significance of the i phrase, but to gain time, Lanyard . slowly repeated: “'On the spot?”* I In the same breath he was aware . that the mobsman was again inat- . tentive, his alarm this time so far . more decided that the pistol slipped . an inch or so from its first position, i And gathering himself together, i Lanyard prepared in simultaneous

movements to throw himself to one side and seize the wrist. Before he could put this intention into effect, however, the door to the passageway opened; and the gunman, swinging with a snarl, made to rise—and, finding Lanyard on his back the next instant. lurched, lost balance altogether, and went to the floor under his assailant. Thirty seconds or less of blind and frantic scrambling followed, in the ' course of which the pistol exploded. ' And as if that had been a set signal, the room was all at once drenched 1 with light. • Lanyard delayed long enough to ! pin and crush the wrist of the pistol arm Uli the fingers relaxed and re- ! leased the weapon. Then, his other hand a vise for the gunman’s throat. r he looked up. Maurice stood just inside the j door, tearing from his face a dark 1 silk handkerchief worn, like the gunman's as a mask for the lower , half. 1 Eyes lurid with excitement in a face of unnatural pallor took in the * tableau on the floor, then the boy 1 laid a finger to his lips and an ear j to the door. Turning from this, he 1 cried in a voice at once tense and □ controlled: _ “Up—get up, and let him up! ’ Quick, if you love me—vve haven’t t an instant —” a As Lanyard, transferring his e hold to the gunman's collar, rose - and hauled him to his feet, Maurice stepped in and swung a wicked i- right to the fellow’s jaw His head snapped back; his eyes rolled up till - only their bloodshot white showed;

his knees buckled with his dead weight. Still moving with the most admirable precision and economy, Maurice closed in and caught the body, swung it toward the far end of the room, and pausing only to thrust a hand into one of the coat pockets, threw it from him with all his might. There was now a rumor of feet and voices in the passageway. Maurice let the silk handkerchief he had worn over his nose fall, and cleverly kicked it under the bed, pulled the front of his dinner-jacket together, and had time to flash to his father a reassuring smile before the door was unceremoniously

thrown open. Pion broke in, with one at his heels whom Lanyard recognized as the first officer, and several stewards and sailors for backing. “You are one minute late, messieurs,” Maurice forestalled the agent of the Surete, “that is, if the bandit you see on the floor there is the one you are after. I had to attend to his case in ptlint of selfprotection.” Pion discovered the huddled body and goggled at it, his jaw dropping. The first officer answered for him. “It is Mademoiselle Boyce who has just been robbed of a priceless necklace.” he announced. “She screamed as the miscreant left her room. That took the attention of ' the stewards on night duty. They , saw him cross the companionway and dart up this passage. ... There J was a shot heard—” "Sharp work!" Maurice ap- | plauded. “My father and I were t chatting when he broke in like a > mad beast and threatened us with 1 j his pistol. It was plain that he was r beside himself with terror—l dared ? not take any chance with him. So I ■ j kicked the pistol out of his hand—that was when it went off—then ! dropped him with a right hook. At t vour convenience, messieurs—take him.” s While the boy was speaking. | p Pion crossed to the unconscious j e gunman and knelt to ransack his I clothing. As Maurice finished, the rj detective fished from one coat pocket , [j a rope of pearls. ; (To Be Continued)

JUDGE MURRAY MAY ALSO CITE TWO ATTORNEYS (CONTINUED FKOM t ' aGE^£ >N j with Murray and other Lake county officials, came in for bold critiijsm in the grand jury report on Ihllingir’s daring break from the "escape proof' jail here. Smith's power to act as attorney for-the grand jurors, whose report was called “scandalous and , contemptuous" by Judge Murray, was attacked at the outset of the I proceedings. "You think you have a legal | right to appear?" Judge Murray asked. "I don't know why the grand jury shouldn't have counsel of its own choosing,” Smith auswer-! ed. "But not by a state's attorney," j the judge interrupted. Smith's explanation that he was not a court officer any longer was ; met with the argument of the court that he was at the time of Hie alleged contempt and that he undoubtedly would be a witness in the case. Judge Murray also said that Barce and Hutchinson might ne witnesses or might be forced to prosecute the charges should they be carried to the state supreme I court. “Barce and Hutchinson are officers of Gov. McNutt, who also 1 was severly criticized in this re- j port," Murray said. The grand ' jury went clean across the state of Indiana without any provoca-1 tion to lay part of the responsibility for this break on the executive department." o Uhetwwsl Tvoma isomerism refers to substance# which are made no of (tie same ihnml.'Sl eL-mejts in the same pro portion, but In which the atoms are differently arranged so as to produce having dlfferen' physical any ctemk-al properties.
