"as though our fair daughter hero were a sister republic. It re mains for you, sir.” his glance now bent upon the commander of the bat tleship Missouri, "to And^out who may be in possession, and to °ust them in favor of this paper title. “I w-onder who we'll find? mused Annette, her eyes glowing. "Probably no one,” returned the admiral. , „ . Neal saluted. "Padon, sir, he ex claimed. "that would be a bit too tame.” ,, . "Robinson Crusoe, maybe, smiled the commander. He returned the documentary evi dence and the trinkets to his Port folio. "These,” he said to the dis trict attorney, "I take with me." "Exactly,” said the other, ' we have photographs of all of them. The investigation has been of Interest, a curious situation.” He paused. "Miss Ilington." he exclaimed. Annette came to herself with a start. “I—I beg your pardon," she returned, "I was just thinking, won dering whether my father, whether he might not be a Crusoe on Lost Isle. I have a feeling somehow that I'll meet him there.” "Miss Ilington,” said the district attorney kindly, "let me suggest that it is much easier to bear disappoint ment, but if we refrain from wild hopes, I too, hope you will And your father; but our investigation points otherwise—we believe he perished in the Martinique disaster-” "I still believe that I shall meet him,” said Annette. The district attorney placed before her a bulky document. "You will be compensated for this concession—this coaling station on Lost Isle,” he said, "and the govern ment stands ready now to make you a substantial advance of money upon the signing of this paper. A war emergency fund permits of a consid erable immediate disbursement. It will enable you to start your mines— if there be mines on your island. It will enable you to market your wares. Sign here—and here.” Annette signed—and sighed with relief. "That’s done,” She exclaimed. The admiral bowed. All rose. "You are rendering your country a great service, Miss Ilington," he said, ‘‘and your country will do Its level best to protect you. We can do no more.” "My country renders me great ser vice.” said Annette simply, "and I thank you for It, sir.” The admiral smiled. He glanced at Neal. "You have Ensign Hardin here, to thank for bringing us to gether,” he remarked. Neal flushed. He saluted. **I under stand. sir,” he said, "that I am to command the expedition.” “Yes,” Interposed the commander, "we've arranged all that with the captain of a steamer. He agrees that what you say shall go—and you'll say It, I feel sure.” , "I’ll say anything and do any thing." returned Neal, “for my coun try and my—and Miss Annette Iling ton." He said a good deal to her on the way back to her Los Angeles hotel— and kept on Baying It. •'But,” he added at parting, "care ful now. Don't take risks. This man Hernandez is a wonder. I take ms hat off to him. He never knows when he's beaten.” "He's beaten now,” returned An nette. "particularly if he knows ail that has transpired.” "He must know it." said Neal, “and yet he may not. Better be careful. Don't talk, Annette. Even Joe Welch er isn't safe, he talks too much. A drink or two will make Joe give up more secrets than he’s got. Be care ful. Remember Irene Courtier, If, In deed. that is her name." "I’ll keep mum,” said Annette “didn't they tell me to. I'm under treaty with the government. I’m a monarchj’, and monarchs never talk.” “Some lady monarchs do,” said i Meal. I "But not this lady monarch,” said Annette. "At any rate," said Nell, “be care ful—and if you can't be careful—be as careful as you can." He left her—still gravely -worried. He would have been more than wor ried had he known that within a quarter of a mile of Annette’s hoat lery, In a secluded cafe, sat Hernan dez, with his tw.^ companions, the Brute and Inez Castro. He would have been more than worried had he known that with them was another Individual—Joe Welcher, his own fos ter brother and Annette's. Welchci was there—depressed, fearful, ner vous—but drinking heavily. And he was still the model, shrinking tool, the catspaw. "And what,” queried Hernandez "about the battleship Missouri." Joe produced an extra—Its head lines devoted to the navy and the Impending Allemanian war. "The Missouri,” he announced, re ’ ferrlng to the paper, "steams awaj tomorrow.” "Where, does she steam?” “To San Francisco.” "With all her men?” "So the papers say.” said Joe. "Do you know why?” Job shrugged his shoulders— " Jusl the war,” he said. "Friend Welcher." went on Her nandez, "does this Neal—does he tall ' —do you get inside information?” 1 "There's none to get,” said Joe, "il ! there was any, I’d get it.

The only thine, I know is that she's going to take a boat for Lost Isie—she south—and Neal goes north. And I’m glad of it. Here's where they separate for once. I'm In love with that girl—.". Inez clutched his arm fiercely. "And what about me, young Ameri cano,'' she exclaimed, "charmer. You said you were infatuated—with Se norita’ Inez Castro.” "Sure," returned Joe, flattered. "I'm Infatuated with you—but I llko her, too.” . ... Inez dretv forth the hilt of a stilet to. "Have a care—a care. Clringo,” she cried, leading him on with the lure of her eyes, "there are times when I am mad with Jealousy.” Hernandez waved his hand. “When does the Missouri sail," he queried. "This afternoon," said Joe. "When she sails,” went on Her nandez, "we'll get this girl. We need her. We want her evidence—but we want her. too—until—until we have no further need for her. What we shall run into at Lost isle, no man knows. I want her with us there. Listen, Welcher. You must arrange it. Our paths must cross this after noon.” Welcher fumed. "I do all the dirty work," he said, "I’m through." Hernandez poured him another drink, and handed it to him with a glance that ate into Joe's soul. The drink had Just the wrong ef fect. Joe became angry—noisy—un manageable. v "I’ll be damned if I do your bidding any more." snarled Joe. Hernandez darted a glance tow'ard Inez. She returned it. “Leave him with me," she said.' Hernandez did as he was bid. He left her alone with Joe. And in the next fifteen minutes Inez Castro made love to Joe as she never had before. She overwhelmed him with enchant ment. "Tonight." she whispered to him "tonight, Americano. But breathe not a word to him—he will kill us both.” "Let him try,” said Joe, vainglo riously, hts spirits rising with this frank avowal on the part of this dark Spanish beauty. "Do as he says," whispered Inez in his ear, “and then, tonight, w’e shall meet alone—under the stars—I and my Americano—go.” Half an hour later Annette swung out of the hotel grounds, mounted on a wlrv little pony. "I can't help it," she had protested to her foster mother, Mrs. Hardin, Like a Home ' Paper • •' ■ ' L< § w- 1 • j > - Since the establish ing of the Evening Star’s Montclair Branch office at 353 Bloomfield avenue, The Star is be coming more like a Home Newspaper to the people of that sec tion.

And there's nothing like a horseback ride to do If. There's nothing to feai*. This is I .os Angeles—not Central America—this is a big, big city—with police—I’m safe,” She spied Joe and drew in her steed. She noted that Joe was un duly excited. His eyes were too bright—she knew what that meant. She started to uptp-aid him—then thought better of it. "Joe,” she exclaimed, "tell mother I’ll be safe.’” Under certain Influences Joe’s mind acted with unusual rapidity. Drink and the dark eyes of Inez had set him well on edge. Without a moment's thought he stooped by the roadside and plucked a thorny burr. He straightened up again, with the thorny burr concealed within his hand. He did not answer Annette at flrst, but approached her and her steed. “Good cow pony,” he exclaimed. He stroked the horse's nose. It's neck. Its flank. And then he did another thing. “Safe as they make 'em,” he con tinued. And then he did the triok. His right hand stole gently up across the horse’s back, behind Annette— stole to the saddle. Swiftly—and unnoticed—he pushed the thorny burr under the saddle, next to the pony’s skin. Then he slouched away in the direction of the bar. "When that begins to work—he mused gently to himself. A spasm of remorse seized him—but he sup pressed it with a drink. "What’s the odds,” he told himself, "and anyway—tonight— CHATTER IT. , A l>ui|frona Connection. There are few drivers of a high - power car who permit themselves re straint upon an open road. But the machine that crept along the avenue 1 in this sparsely settled portion of suburban Los Angeles seemed almost crippled. Everything passed it— even horse-drawn vehicles. And one horse in particular kept always on ahead. This horse veas Annette's Ilington's. There were four people in this car, and three of them were waiting for the inevitable to happen. They crept on and on, always two hundred yards behind. "Ah,” exclaimed Hernandez finally, "it eats in.” He was quite right. Suddenly the horse ahead swerved sharply to one side, violently shook its head and neck, leaped frantically into the air, and then, with a violent burst of speed, tore down the road like fire. “It has come,” said Inez, her breath coming quick and fast. "Follow now —follow on.” \ Hernandez increased his speed to twenty miles, to twenty-five; but the horse tore on before him. Annette '■ was riding like the wind, but she had lost control. Her pony had the bit in his teeth; he tore through the air like mad. But there was no relief. Annette's weight drove the thorny burr the further home at every stride. It was maddening. The horse threw all reason to the winds. He changed hiif maddened method. Instead of tearing straight ahead, he tore now from side to side. He leaped into the air, he reared, he struck out with his forefeet, pawed the air in agony; he must rid himself, at any cost, ot these pin points that pressed into his tender back. Annette clung to him in a frenzy of fear. She knew horses, but she didn't Jtnow this one—this one had her in his power. She was afraid— afraid for almost the first time in her life. Joe, in the car behind, leaped to his feet and tried to force his way from the car. “Let me out,” he cried, struggling. "I got her into this, and I’ll get her out.” Hernandez turned to the Brute. “Hold him,” he commanded. And the Brute obeyed. Inez Castro now was on her feet. "Look—look—look." she cried, “the horse is mad—heill kill her—look—ah —ah-” It was all over. In one final burst of frenzy the horse had leaped high in the air and come down on all fours, not on the solid road, but in the ditch. The Jolt was terrifying, even to Her nandez, the hardened adventurer in the car behind. Annette was flung violently from her steed—and struck the ground with a thud. The horse, freed of his burden, screamed in mad dened triumph, and sped on—up the road—aped on. Hernandez stopped his car. Joe leaped out and ran to Annette. ■’She's killed," he said. Hernandez followed him. “If so, we cannot help it.” he returned calmly. "If she's killed him, I did It, you blackguard,” cried Joe. remorsefully. Inez bent over the girl. “She's not dead," she said; "she’s very much alive. She's only stunned. Look—the ground is soft. She’s lucky. She’s put together like a panther, this girl look, she stirs.” Hernandez motioned to the Brute. "Carry her to the car," he com manded. And the Brute again obeyed. "Now, slowly," emmanded Inez of Hernandez, "until I revive the girl.” They were in open conutry now— the community was but sparsely settled. Hernandez glanced warily from side to side. "We must make haste,” he mused, taking.a grass grown road to the right, ^after awhile the alarm will be sent out—after awhile the cow-pony will return to his stable—we must take care—ah, I have it. Here.’’ He stopped the car before a house. It was an ordinary dwelling—not even up to the standard of the usual suburban type. There was no sign of life about it. The grass in the dooryard was a foot high. Every thing appeared unkempt. But In the parlor window was a sign: “To Let, Furnished." Hernandez stepped into the dooryard and peeped into the windowa "We'll let it furnished—free—for a a short time," he said. He forced the door and entered, hastily examining the interior of the cottage—and finding it eminently to his satisfaction he thrust his head out of doors. "All tho comforts of home," he said, smiling. "Fetch in the girl.” Back in the city, Neal, off duty once again—he had reported but found himself at leisure—sought Annette at her *otel. “She's gone again—alone,” said Mrs. Hardin. "She would go. She’s so restless sho couldn’t stt still.” Neal smiled. He was not worried. "She's a better horsewoman than I am a horseman,” he said, “and she's safe.” “But—Hernandez-” faltered his mojner. Neal laughed. ‘‘This is a city, mother,” he resumed, unconsciously using Annette's argument. "Nothing can happen to her here. I'll get a horse and follow her. Which way did she take?" “The straight road out and back — she said," replied his mother. "She thought maybe you might be back. You can meet her half way pos sibly.” "I’ll meet her somewhere, never fear," said Neal. He got a saddle horse—a nervy little chap it was—and started off in the direction taken bv Annette. . Back In the deserted furnished house Hernandez still looked about him. * "All the comforts of home,” he re peated. "Gas and electricity— | hello," he added, “and not turned off. Careless owner——" "Maybe a nearby owner,” warned Inez, working over Annette. "■We'll take a chance with any own er.” said Hernandez, “but I’ll wager he’s not near by.” He switched on ! an electric lamp—and also lit the gas. Then he turned both out. ’•'We can hide Tiere till doomsday,” he laughed. "Running water, too. Everything but food—everything. LooR— yonder on the mantel—even pen and ihk. This place' was meant for: ns-" Mo bowed low. "Ah, my charming friend, Senorlta Ilington,” he said to Annette, who had recov ered Consciousness and was staring about her in astonishment. "You have had a long sleep—and pleasant dreams, I hope.” Ho drew down the shades and switched on the light again. “See,” he added, "you have slept till evening—pretty sluggard. And how is your good health. No bones broken. Tharls well.” Annette did not answer. Suddenly she leaped to her feet. . ’’Joe,” she cried, "Joe Welcher—you here?” "Hold her,” chmmanded Hernandez of the Brute. The Brute obeyed. "Yes," returned Hernandez, again bow'ing, "Joe is here—lie has always been here—with us. Joo is our good friend. We owe him much—much." He turned a sneering smile on Welcher. Annette uttered an exclam ation. Joe! Joe,” she cried, "is it true?” Welcher did not answer. He hung his head. "Joe.” commanded Annette, “look at me." Joe turned away—his chest heaving, his ej%s upon the floor. "Aw, I’m no good,” he muttered. "Never mind, Joe, fair one,” said Hernandez, taking from his pocket h legal document already carefully pre pared, “we have business at hand. This document—you should really know what it contains. It is in proper shape, I assure you. A bit soiled perhaps, from long disuse in my breast pocket—but well worded. Look—It is complete. It is even acknowledged before a United States consul in Central America—acknowl edged by you, fair one.” "It Is not.” snapped ^Annette. "Fair Inez here,” went on Her lariflez, "signed It Annette Ilinton— the consul was quite satisfied that she was you. But—I have erased her lignature—she lacks the cleverness 'ailed forgery. And your signature nay be on record, somewhere—who knows. Comparisons arc odiousj Let js therefore be complete. Take in land a pen, my pretty. Sign your lame, over this erasure—opposite this leal.” .Annette sparred ior ume. i ,01 me *ead It first,” she said. Hernan<#z shook his head. "Not at ill essential,” he returned, “the con sul at Chantlllo guarantees—as you lerceive—that you have readmit—that tie made its contents known to you. Briefly, however, it is a concession of ill your rights to Lost Isle—a grant of Lost Isle Itself, to your late Father's trusted partner—myself, one Hernandez. A mere_matter of form, my. child." “And of no value.” said Annette, "since it is obtained by force." "Is force necessary?” queried Her nandez. “I’ll never sign,” returned Annette. “If it be of no value, why not sign. But, you see yourself, no force Is used. The consul says himself that you do it voluntarily. He certified to that some weeks ago in Central America. Ah, were he but here to see how peacefully you sign.” "I'll never sign,” repeated Annette. "You will sign,” said Hernandez evenly, "and you will hand over to us all the evidence you have upon your person. Sign.” "No,” said Annette. "Well and good,” went on Hernan dez in honeyed accents. "Beast, hold her firmly. Disobey and the lash for yours.” Hernandez took from his coat pocket a piece of cord. He tied the ends together. “My ancestors were of the Inquisi tion—I have their blood," he said. Despite her struggles, he fitted this noose-like cord over Annette’s head and thrust into it a piece of wood. Then he began to twist. "Tell me when you’ve had enough,” he said. Like a stone from a catapult Joe Welcher hurled himself across the room and was upon Hernandez in a flash. Under the assault Hernandez retreated violently to the wall, strik ing his head against the mantel. “Are you crazy—you, worm?” cried Hernandez with a snarl. "I've turned,” snarled Joe in re turn. Without waiting for breath he flung himsel^once more at Hernandez, all hands and feet and teeth. He tore and buffeted at Hernandez's face—he struck right and left in a frenzy—he was nowhere—he was everywhere. He was crazy mad. “Help,” cried Hernandez. “Inez, tackle this mosquito." Inez was a valuable ally. She at tacked Joe from the rear, and her as sault was effectual. Her onslaught was so severe that it caused Joe to retreat. He did retreat until he faced them both. "Now,” said Hernandez, and both descended upon him. Joe was ready for them. He seized a chair and whirled it about his head, frenzy lend ing him violence and strength. “Come on,” he cried, "all three of you at once.” (To be continued Monday.) "Neal of the Navy” will be shown every Monday, Tuesday and Wednes day at Loew’s Theater, Springfield avenue and High street. Life-Saving Class Started by Physical Dep’t of Y. W. C. A. A life-saving class was launched last night in the Young Women’s Christian Association under the dlreo • tion of the physical department. B. T. Pest, of the Y. M. C.

Singles and doubles are played on the court in the gym nasium. Plans are going forward for the banquet to be held in Sayre Hall Friday, November 12, for the girls who have been at the Vacation House of the association at Boonton.
