BEGIN HERE TODAY. John Amgley, a. man of education and breeding. becomes a Blaster crook—preying upon other thieves. At Monte Carlo he develops a dcaire to meet the clever thief who stole a pearl necklace from the throat of the llaronuu and Esterelle in the Ca-sh-o. At„the roulette tables Ainsley sees a young Englishman and his American bride lose all the money they have. More money is loaned to the Englishman by a Russia prince, and this. too. is lost on the tables. Ainsley suspects the Russian of some base motive. This suspicion is momentarily dispelled when he overhears the Russian grant the use of his hotel apartment to the destitute young couple. Later, however, * he sees the Russian himself going to the hotel. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY a TOOK the carriage, and threeminutes later I was in my apartment on the third floor of the Hotel de Paris. Two minutes after that I was standing in the corridor, watching, in amazement, the scene in progress before Apartment 322. I had heard sounds of a struggle, voices raised in anger, and so had stepped into the hall. Before the open door of the Prince’s apartment 'stood a group of men. The Russian was there, two clerks from the office ", downstairs, and TXvo porters. These latter gripped the arms of the young Englishman. The Russian was speaking. “We were too quick for him, messieurs.” he cried- “The minute I missed my keys, I hastened back here, and are in good time to catch the thief who took my keys and has invaded my rooms.” He spoke in French, and the Clerks and porters responded with excited congratulations. “Search him!” cried the Russian. The young Englishman, obviously comprehending no French,* demanded now the meaning of this assault upon'him. “I missed my keys,” replied the Russian in English. “I return to the hotel. I tell the clerks. We come upstairs and find you departing from my rooms.” Young Beresford grew red. "But

you gave them to me yourself, ten minutes ago, in the Sporting Club.” 'The ’Prince smiled. “You are a man with some shreds of common sense,” he retorted. ‘Who will believe so ridiculous a statement?” HE HAD THE BIG MAN DOWN IN A MOMENT. I had r.ot been observed by any of the party, and I stepped back silently- to _my room, leaving tha door slightly ajar so tha I could still see and hear, without my espionage being detected. And if it be ( wondered at that I did not at once come to the rescue of Beresford, let me state that I preferrerd to watch J;he unfolding of the plot. You will confess that it was a rather pretty one. “But why have you done such a thing" cries'Beresford. “Ah, now- you are prepared to be reasonable,” said the Prince. He turned to the clerks, and in rapid French spoke to them. “The young man has suffered severe loasses. In a moment of despair he has committed this crime. I am not a harsh

man. If he show-s the proper spirit of repentance* I am inclined to for give him.” The French are a warmly impulsive people. These members of that gallant race applauded loudly tin Russian's generosity. Understanding no English, what followed was inoomprhensibie to them, and only served to prow to them that Beresford was a hardened rascal. For. in English, the Prince spoke to the unhappy prisoner. “You w-onder w-hy I have done this thing? ou forget that Madame, your wife, is exquisite.” “Don't mention her name, yon twine!” cried Beresford. The Russian shrugged. “But it is essential. You see, my young friend, that it is possible for me, with . word, to cause these men to release you. I will utter that word on one condition. If you could assure me thaj; Madame, your wife, would take a motor ride with me, tomorrow-, to, let .us say, Cannes, why, then, Mr. Beresford ” He didn’t finish the sentence. Young Beresford broke loose frorff the detaining clasp of the two porters and w-as at the Russian's throat. I tell you. it was magnificent. He had the big man down in a moment and would certainly have killed him had there been less than four men to drag him away from his victim. But four w-ere too many. Bleeding and bruised, they finally dragged him from the Russian. Loudly the clerks assured Beresford that in ten minutes he would be,in prison, and that he would be lucky if he escaped with a ten years' sentence. He did not understand them, but if he had, I feel certair that it would not have bothered him at this moment. For if ever a man was obsessed with a. desire to kill his enemy. Beresford was that man. His own predicament meant nothing to him now, save as it interfered w-ith his wreaking a righeous vengeange on the Prince. That worthy staggered to his feet. I stared through the crack in the door. Now that the plot had 'unfolded itself to its sordid” denouement, I would have entered upon the scene and cause<} Beresford’s release by corroborating his defense, but for one thing. That thing was an exclamation, apparently unnoticed by the others, that the Prince had uttered as Beresford first struck him. “Aeh. Gott!” the Prince had cried. Now, that is a purely German exclamation. And it was uttered by a man who previously had spoken both French and English w-ith a pronounced accent. Why did an apparent Russian, in a moment of great excitement, utter a German

phrase without any sign of a Russian accent. Could it be because the Prince w-as really German? Now, the Germans are not popular in France, or Monte Carlo, which, despite its independence, is French in speech and tradition. Os course, a German desiring to enjoy the pleasures of thf principality might cloak himself with another nationality, without any ulterior purpose save that of enjoyment. But there was something diabolically clever in the Prince’s plan that I could not bring myself to believe that so utter i scoundrel adopted a masquerade ■solely for the purpose of enjoying the Riviera. He was, unquestionably, an imposter in his claim to princely rank. Was he something more than an imposter? And I knew- -now that the answer to that question must, be in the affirmative. For though he glared at Beresford with a hate that could have killed, the words which he addressed to the hotel employes w-ere mild. "I am a man of mercy,” he declared. “I can forgive theft, and even assault upon myself. This young man is accompanied by his wife. She will suffer in his shame. Let tym go free.” * * * Now, so far as the Prince knew, no one on earth was a w-itness to his conversation with Beresford in the corridor outside the rouletterooms of the Sporting Club. Beresford’s defense ngaipst the charge of theft w-ould be laughed at in any court in the world. And the Prince was not the sort of man to be moved by those emotions of pity w-hose expression had imposed upon the warm-hearted Frenchmen. The Prince bad been struck and choked. His eyes told his desire for vengeance. With vengeance so simple of accomplishment, why did he forgo it? Was it because he feared himself to appear in court, even as a complainant? Had he counted upon Beresford's yielding to his damnable suggestion? Had he never intended to carry his plot to its logical conclusion? Why? Because, in addition 'to being an impostor, he was a criminal who dared not subject himself to the scrutiny of a court. And so, though by a word I could have saved young Beresford from further humiliation, I waited. “Monsieur le Prince is too softhearted,” said one of the clerks. “Nevertheless it shall be done as he wishes.” In Monte Carlo scandal of any sort is unwelcome. Thriving on the baser passions of mankind, the principality has no desire for the world to hear of matters such as this. To

the world, Monte Carlo presents an ingenuity smiling countenance; it does not thank the person who reminds tho world that the concentrated vice of a continent is gathered here. Monte Carlo wishes the papers to print tales of its tennis matches, its yachting, its fetes; it wishes nothing sordid to seem to have occurred therX “Monsieur Beresford will be put across the border tomorrow morning.” said the clerk. “For tonight he will go to his room. A guard will be stationed outside it. He is a thief who cannot pay his hotel bill. But rhat does not'matter. That will be forgiven on condition that he never comes to Monaco again.” Beresford, uncomprehending, began again~a violent protest against ■he men who held him, and a denun-

baptist minister gives* TANLAC FULL CREDIT

No greater praise can be accorded a medicine than the voluntary testimony of a minister of the gospel. The preacher’s higfi calling puts a great responsibility on his every word, and he will not jeopardize his reputation by cOThmending a'thinc without first assuring himself it is all right. Tanlac has been endorsed by nur*be£S of prominent ministers. They have put Tanlac to the test of personal service and their words carry conviction because they say w-hat they know to be the truth. One of the latest to speak out in behalf of Tanlac is the Rei\ B. E. Bell, a retired Baptist minister, 207 Elm St., San Antonio, Texas, who says: “Before taking Tanlac I had suffered from stopiach and nerve troubles for over*3o yeM-s and there were times when my Condition was ■such that it required almost superhuman effort for me to prepare my sermons and go through with my Sunday services. Indeed? my work seemed_ like some great obstacle across my pathway—a burden too big tOx-rarry in my weak physical condition. “But in six weeks’ time Tanlac transformed my entire outlook, giving me what seemed like anew set of nerves and a brand new digestive system. My appetite became ravenous, my nerves steady, ,ny liver action regular and I could aieep sound for the first time in years.

Be assured that if you offer any objection to th action of the authorities I will you as the thief you are." And then the porters and th clerks dragged the Englishman away. And still I waited. After 4l nothing serious would happen t young Beresford before tomorrow morning. Several hours remained before dawn. Much might be dons in that time. If the Prince were the criminal that I suddenly suspected him to be, there might be other wayg of coping with the situation. (Continued in Our Next Issue) dd
