CHAPTER XXI The cab was heading westward through the traffic jam. Bannister Kicked up Toole’s conjectures and egan to amplify them. “Karen read the parchments and learned the secret her father tried to bide from ber. In a few hours she arranged for passports and passage. She boarded the Thessalonta, probably without letting her father know her plans.” “That puts her in Dutch,” was Toole’s comment. "She’s running sway, although it seems that she told Matt Boyld she'd stay until he :leared up the Prince’s murder." Bannister nodded approvingly. ' 'What you say makes it more evident that time is an important factor in this situation. The Whipples were pressed for time or they wouldmt have resorted to such expedients; Karen was even harder pressed or she wouldn’t have made a scramble for the boat. Whatever use the parchments and the leopard robe are to the Whipples and to her all depends upon a fixed date in the near future." Dick paused to implore the driver to make speed. Toole picked up his line of reasoning. "Now we’re getting around to the Prince—he was holding the third hand in the game with the Whipples and Sire bolding the other two. Sire’s stratigy was to wait; theirs wss to hurry. The girl dealt herself a hand and, without knowing it, began io play against her father.” “Roughly, that’s my dope,” Ban- j aister assented. The cab was two Mocks from the pier when a deep bawl came from the river. The Thessalonia was in mid-stream, riding down the tide toward the bay. Bannister gulped back his heart. Karen Sire was sboard that ship, with the shadow f of death, or a terror even worse, stalking her as she moved seaward. He felt sure that Jeff Whipple was aboard the same ship and that somewhere across the wide expanse Brenda would be waiting. He began to feel a contempt for Maurice Sire for letting his daughter get into this desperate plight. Toole tightened his belt “Are you game for it?” he asked. Bannister knew what he meant. “Yes, we’ll follow them,” he said quietly. “Perhaps we can hop aboard a ship that will beat the Thessalonia to the other side. Anyway, you can order Whipple’s detention and warn the captain to keep him away from Karen.” They stopped at the pier and picked up a sailing list of the Thessalonia. Karen Sire had used her own name—an obvious necessity in securing a passport. Big Jeff, for the same reason, had done the same. The entry read: “Geoffrey Whipple and man-servant.” The little brown assassin was aboard with him. “We’ll try to get one of the big four-day boats for Southampton or Havre,” said Bannister. “Then we can go by plane to Alexandria or even board the Thessalonia at Gibraltar. What do you say?” Upon further inquiry they) learned that the Albanic, a faster ship than the Thessalonia. would leave for Alexandria the next morn ing and would not stop at severzi ports included in the itinerary of the Thessalonia. They were assured that she would beat the Thessalonia into the Egyptian port by at least a day. “That’s our best bet,’’ said Bannister. “Suppose we stop in at Hod's office and make arrangements for passage, passports and funds?” "You’re on,” assented Toole. “I’ll turn in the tip on Whipple and leave this end of it to Matt Boyle. But he’ll probably put his foot in it. bad sex to ’im!” Bannister smiled at this. The detective was on his way to a telephone when he stopped suddenly and engaged a pier official in conversation. A moment later he hurried back to Bannister. “Say,” he said excitedly, “I just heard that Maurice Sire owns the Thessalonia. The ship itself may be playing some part in this game. Wonder if she’s carrying arms? That would be the kind of a secret that Sire would have to keep from the government. Sire a filibuster! The thought was no great shock to Bannister, recalling, as !•“ did. what Hod had

told him of the man’s activities in Latin-America. Was it possible that he had turned his talents to the Near East? Was this the hold that Jeff Whipple had .upon him? Captain Anderson of the Thessalonta was in no great state of elation over the fact that Karen Sire was aboard. Her presence entailed new and vexatious responsibilities. His ship had scarcely begun to flirt her dainty skirts of spume in green water before the wireless started to harass him. Maurice Sire, owner of the line, or at least its most powerful individual factor, wanted to know about his daughter. This brought on a long aerial pa-

“My orders are to put you ashore at Gibraltar in charge o£ our agent there.”

laver that ended when Sire gave certain instructions to his sailing master which rather astonished him. Anderson, of course, had read of the murder of Prince Jura Bai. He had understood that Karen Sire was to stay, in New York as a possible witness and he had been a little chagrined when she came aboard with no less a person than Police Captain Matthew Boyle, who told him officially that there was no objection to her sailing. But now her father had come via radio into the scene with so much evident agitation that Anderson feared he had blundered in taking her away. Th« next day the Albanic, more i than twenty hours' run astern, began to goad him with queries confining Miss Sire and Geoffrey ?• hippie. What could she have in common with Whipple, a mar. notorious for intrigue, a king of the underworld in the Near East? An elopement, he thought at first; but a few hours later he received orders from Washington to keep Whipple and his man-servant under closo surveillance until they reached Alexandria where the British authorities would take them in custody. The charge was stated as being “in connection with the murder of Prince Jura Bal ” Karen Sire, of course, had been assigned to the captain’s table. Anderson asked her about it all. “Oh, I’m a runaway,” she admitted naively. “Daddy didn’t want me to go so I persuaded Captain Boyle to clear the way. I '.ope he won’t feel that I have dereived him.” “My orders are to put you ashore at Gibraltar in charge of our agent ’ there.” “But I’m booked for Alexandria!” “Can’t help it Miss Sire. You're a runaway and a minor under control of your father. You’ll have •• , go ashore —a New York bound ship will pick you up.”

I week. The senate finance committee, in teaching an agreement on the bill last niglit. nii.de two other major changes in the bill recently passed by the hottoe. These were: 1. The federal ‘alcohol control Hdininistiatioii *»til<l be removed from treasury Jurisdiction, and .placed under » three-man execu I tlve board, to be appointed by the i President. 2. Beer sales would not be regulated by federal control. • —o— Beer Isolated in Park Milwaukee -(U.R)-A section of Greenfield park here has been set aside for beer picnics. Beer is banned in all other county parks.

“At Gibraltar? I could get a plane there, couldn’t I, ano proceed to Alexandria?” “I said you were to be placed on board a New York bound shipwhy talk of planes? Bless your heart, child, don’t think of scaring your father to death by diving into the Near East at such a time a* this! There’s the deuce to pay over there just now. Wild men are coming out of the deairt, agitators and dervishes are gibbet Ng and whirling—” “What a lovely little Good Night story you can tell!" Captain Anderson nibbled at the celery until her mood changed. “It seems,” he resumed, “that one of

those periodic, fanatical, semi-re-ligious upheavals is sputtering toward a general blow-up. Some prophet has come along with a story of a new deliverance.” “What is this gentleman's plan?” “Oh, you’re beginning to believe me now! Well, he’s going to lead his fellows to an earthly paradise. A faker, of course. The promised land is somewhere back of the Himalayas, along the southern edge of Tibet—a desert.” Karen had now taken on a genuine air of absorption in the tale. “Who is the man leading these people?” she asked eagerly. “If I told you the whole story, you’d laugh at me. This fellow isn’t really the leader, he’s a sort of ballyhooer or whipper-in. His job is to get the poor dummies saturated with an idea. Then he’ll start ’em marching to the new paradise where they’ll meet their t^ueen —a glorified derai-goddess who's going to rule over ’em. Fact! You can start a thing like that any old time in the Near East—or the Far East, for that matter.” “What is the big idea?” “Not a bad one, perhaps. You see there are thousands of Eurasians in the Near East—half caste yellow, brown and white. Hybrids of infinite gradatiens are plentiful, all branded with the same curse. They form a pariah race by themselves, scorned by straight-breeds." Karen, became faint—Bannister’s words! “What is this prophet's rallying cry?” she managed to ask. Captain Anderson was pleased at having intrigued her interest. Like a high chamberlain at court, de- : tached from serious affairs to amuse a princess, he ran on: “A homeland for the disinherited! . That’s his slogan—a sweet stick to . chew on, isn’t it?” (To Be Continued) Cwrrl«ht. I*ls, C*rlt Ha»U>mx DiltrlbuWi by fling kulwN Br»4i<*«t* (n&
