BY NARD JONES CHAPTER EIGHTEEN S the four pressed forward, the glow ahead took form. It was a vertical thread of light perhaps seven or eight feet high, such as might come from a badly fitted door. Tom rushed toward it; leaned hard with his shoulder.

“This is it!” he cried. a hand, Mac.”

S DeWitt Montgomery lunged in fanatical anger toward Kay, Grant had thrust himself between them. There was no chance to imprison the madman’s arms, and in a flash the revolver was out of his pocket. The detonation of the shot filled the little room, followed by Kay's piercing scream—but Montgomery, in his wild hatred, missed wide. Again Harper rushed, plunging through the acrid smoke and clutching his assailant’s revolver wrist with both hands. - That = slight figure possessed amazing strength. With a movement of his arm he whirled Harper sharply against the table, striking mercilessly with his free hand. Back against the shelves of books, Kay watched. frantically for an opening. She realized that-while Grant Harper was younger and more fit, Montgomery had: the power of the mad. And he still held to that menacing revolver. Suddenly she felt a pressure against her back, as though the shelves of books were movirg outward! Then she was virtually pushed away by a sudden shove from behind. Amazed, she turned to see two strange young men rush in through the opening, and, beyond, the frightened faces of Melita and Priscilla! ” HILE the rescuers. pinned Montgomery’s arms behind him and wrested away his weapon, Melita and Priscilla ran joyfully toward Kay. “Are you all right?” She nodded weakly. “Y-yes.” Fearful in his rage, Montgomery was threatening at the top of his lungs. As Tom Forrest thrust him into a chair he glared savagely. “I should have killed you up there behind the cabin—instead of waiting. And I'll do it yet.” His eyes burned into them all. “I'll kill every one of you.” Forrest grinned. “Not now you won't, old man.” He turned to Mac and Harper. “Keep an eye on him and I'll scare up some rope. I move

= OT a bad idea,” agreed Harper, wiping his perspiring face. He looked at the section of book shelves which Mac and Tom had swung open. But wait a minute, Tom. I think there’s another one of those trick doors on the. other side of the room—and someone behind it. Watch Mr, Montgomery there while Mac and I have a look.” : Harper walked toward the spot where he and Kay had detected sounds beyond the wall. Picking up a fire iron from the hearth he pried between the joints while Mac tugged at one of the shelves. It opened as had the other, but at first they could see nothing beyond. ; Then as the light of the library seemed to permeate the blackness they witnessed a strange sight. A young woman crouched in a corner of a mere cubicle of a room. She seemed dazed with pain, and as the door opened she hardly did more than raise her eyes. ‘It’s the woman we saw in the cabin!” cried Kay. ‘She’s not dead!” Kay ran to the wounded figure, stooped quickly. Hurry! Let's take her aboard the boat.” :

2 FN = ALF an hour later Grant Harper entered the. brightly lighted cabin of the Mistral, rubbing his hands with satisfaction.

“That little laboratory room in the forecastle mikes a swell brig,” he grinned. “Mr. Montgomery wiil be auite safe and comfortable there until we can turn him over to the proper authorities.” Kay Dearborn got up from her chair by the setiee where the injured woman lay. “She’s going to be all right.” . “You're sure?” Kay took his arm. “Yes. What she needs now is sleep.” They left the cabin, went out onto the cool deck of the Mistral. “I can’t understand how we ever found her alive,” Harper said. “We found her none too soon. Montgomery had been very pleasant for a while—just as he played charming host to us. Then we three girls blundered onto the island the night he decicled to murder her. She put up a fight, was only wounded, and Montgomery le hen he saw us coming up the beach® he took her unconscious from the cabin. When we went back to the

Tommy Manville Settles His ‘Blond Trouble’ for $200,000

NEW ROCHELLE, N. Y,, Sept.-15 (U. P.).—Tommy Manville parted with $200,000 today, but it was worth it—he settled that long-standing dispute with blond Marcelle Edwards, his fourth wife.

“No more marrying for me,” the asbestos heir declared, after Miss Edwards had agreed to go to Reno and abandon her attempts to slice $1,000,000 off his fortune.

~ Mr. Manville and his attorney, Frank B. Dkevlin, who was the answer to $10,000 worth of newspaper advertising by the “pal of more than 1000 blonds,” reached an agreement with ‘Miss Edwards’ lawyers, Samuel A. Berger and Carl Helm, after months of bickering. Mr. Manville also was aided by his blond secretary, Dolly Goering, who agreed that there should be “no more marrying,” because “Tommy’s too smart for that.” The most important factor in the

conference—the $200,000—was: produced by Mr. Manville in the form of 11 checks. They were deposited in a Chase National Bank vault and will be given to Miss Edwards after

would be quite all right, and thought that she might fly to Reno today.

Montgomery was busy with me— and then you.” | They stood against the rail and Grant Harper looked down at her. “I'm glad I came along.” “So am I” said Kay fervently. “I owe my life to you.” : For a moment he said nothing. Then: “I was sort of hoping youd have still another reason, Kay.”

HE looked at him there on the deck of the Mistral and had no necessity to ask his meaning. Yet she didn’t answer the implied question just ‘then. looked out over the placid water and said, “Where're. Priscilla and Melita?” . yo Harper laughed. “Last time I noticed them they were sitting on the after deck with Tom and Mac.” He took her by the shoulders, turned her squarely around to face him. “If a skipper’s crew falls in love, what does the skipper do?” - “They can’t fall in love,” Kay said. “That would be mutiny.” “And if I insisted that your Chinook follow the Mistral for the rest of the cruise—would that be piracy?” : “I don’t know,” smilled Kay Dearborn happily. “But I like the idea!”

But you've got to be the one who tells Jim Pike what happened!” Kay Dearborn looked at Grant. “Then we're all agreed. You know, we came on this cruise because we wanted a ‘different’ vacation. Here’s hoping that the rest of it isn’t quite as different.” But in her heart she knew that
