CHAPTER V
THE PROBLEM OF THE SEALED BOX
"GONE!'
GONEI'
Jones kept saying to him-
self that he must strive to
be calm, to think, think. Despite all
his warnings, the warnings of Norton,
she had tricked them and run away,
It was maddening. He wanted to
rave, tear his hair, break thing'. He
tramped the hall. It would be wast-
ing time to send for the police, They
would only putter about fruitlessly.
The Black Hundred knew how to ar-
range these abductions.
How had they succeeded in doing
it? No one had entered the house
that. day without his being present.
There had been no telephone call he
had not heard the gist of, nor any
letters he bad not first glanced over.
How had they done it? Suddenly
into hie mind flashed the remem-
brance of the candlelight under Fior-
ence's door the night before. In a
dozen bounds he was in her room
searching *ewers, paper boxes, bas-
ket'. He found nothing. He return-
ed in despair to Susan, who, during
all this turmoil, had sat as if frozen
in her chair.
"Speak!" he cried. "For God's sake,
say something, think something!
Those devils are likely to torture her,
hurt heti" He leaned against the
wall, hie head on his arm.
When he turned again he was calm.
the walked with bent head toward
the door, opened it, and stood upon
the threshold for a space. Across the
street a shadow stirred, but Jones did
not see it. His gaze was attracted
by something which ehone dimly
white on the walk just beyond the
etepe, He ran to it. A crumpled let-
ter, unaddressed. He carried it back
to the house, smoothed it out. and
read its contents. Florence in her
haste had dropped the letter.
He clutched •at his hat, put it on
and ran to Susan:
"Here!" he cried, holding out an
automatic. "If any one comes in that
you don't know, shoot! Don't ask
questions, shoot!"
I'm afraid!" She breathed with
difficulty.
"Afraid!" he roaredather. He put
the weapon in her hand, It slipped
and thudded to the floor. He stooped
for it and slammed it into her lap.
"You love your life and honor. You'll
know how to shout when the time
comes. Now, attend to me. If I'm not
back here by 10 o'clock, turn this note
over to the police. If you can't do
that, then Globi help us all!" 4.nd with
that he ran frorp, the house.
Susan eyed the revolver with grow-
ing terror. For what had. she left the
peace and quiet of Miss Farlow't:
assassination, robbery, thieves, and
kidnappers! She wanted to ehriek,
but her throat was as dry as paper.
Gingerly she touched the pistol. The
cold steel sent a thrill of fear over
her. Be hadn't told her how to shoot

of a track athlete. There might be
half a dozen taxicabs about, but he
would not zun the risk of engaging
any one of them. The Black Hundred
was capable of anticipating his every
movement.
The shadow across the street steod
undecided, At length he • concluded
to give Jones ten minutes in which to
return, If be did not return with -
n that time, the watcher would go
iup to the drug store and telephone
for instructions.
But Jones did not come back.
"Where's Howard?" he demanded.
"Hello, Jones ; what's up?"
"Howard, get that -car out at once."
"Out she comes. Wait till I give
her radiator a bucket of water. Gael'
whispered Howard, whom Hargreave
often used as his chauffeur, "gat on
to his nibs! First time I ever saw
him awake. I wonder what's doing?
You never know what's back of those
mummy -faced headwaiters . . . All
right, Jones!"
- The chauffeur jumped into the car
and Jones took the seat beside him,
"Where to?',
No. 78 . , . " and the rest of it
trailed away, smothered in the vio-
lent thunder of big eix's engines.
During the car's flight several •pa -
'iceman hailed it without success.
Down this street, up that, round this
corner, fifty miles an:hour, and all
the while Jones shouted : "Faster,
faster!"
Within twelve minuter from the
time it left the garage the car stop-
ped opposite to No. 78. Grove street,
and Jones got out.
"Wait here, Howard. If several
men come rushing out, or I don't ap-
pear within ten minutes, fire your
gun a couple of times for the police.
1 don't want them if we can manage
without, They'd only bungle."
"All right, Mr, Jones," said the
chauffeur. He had, in the past quar-
ter of an hour, acquired a deep and
lasting respect for the butler chap
He was a regular fellow, for all his
braes buttons.
• As Jones reached the curb Florence.
came forth an if on invisible wing,.
Jones caught her by the arm. She
flung him aside with a strength he
had not dreamed existed in her Slim
body.
"Florence, I am Jones!"
She stopped, recognized him, and
without a word ran across the street
to the automobile and climbed into
the tonneau. Jones followed imme-
diately.
"Home!"
The car shot up the dimly lighted
street, shone palely for a second un-
der the corner lamp, and vanished.
"Ah, child, child!" groaned the man
at her side, all the tensenes3 gone
from his body. He was Jones again,
Still elle did not speak but stared
ahead with unseeing e;yee.
No further reproach fell from the
butler's lips. It was enough that God
had guided him to her at the ap-
pointed moment. He felt assured
that never again would she be drawn
into any trap. Poor child! what had
they said to her, done to her? How,
in God's name, had she escaped from
them who never let anybody escape?
Pre+ently ehe would become nor-
mal,and then she would tell him.
"I found the lying note. 'You
dropped it."
"Horrible, horrible!" she said al-
most inaudibly.
"Wb.at did they do to you?"
"He said he was my father. . .
He put his arms around me
And I knew!"
"Knew what?"
That he lied. I can't explain."
"Don't try I"
Suddenly she laid her head against
the butler's shoulder and cried. I
was terrible to hear youth weep in
this fashion. Jones put his arm about
her, patted her, and tried to console
her.
Horrible!" she murmured between
the `violent hiccoughs. "I was wrong
wrong! Forgive me!"
Unconsciously the arm sustaining
her drew her closer.
"Never mind?" he consoled. Tell
no one what has happened, Go about
as usual, Don't Iet even Susan know.
Whatever your poor father did was
for your sake. He wanted you to be
happy, .without a care in the world.
!'I promise." And gradually the
sobs ceased. "But I feel so old, Jones,
go very old. I threw over the lamp,
I threw a chair through the window.
They thought that it was 1 who had
jumped out, That gave me the., ne-
cessary time. 1 don'tnnderstand how
I did it. I wasn't frightened at al till

I never paid any particular attention
to Jones, but from now on I shall.
The girl may or may not know where
thesnoney is, but Jones does, Jones
does! Two men shall watch. Felton
on the street and Orloff from the
windows of the deserted house. With
opera glasses he will be able to take
note of all that happens in the house
during the day, He will be able to
see the girl's room. ,And that's the
important point. It was a good plan,
little woman; and it would have been
plain sailing if only we had remem-
bered that the girl was Hargreave's
daughter, Be vary careful hereafter
when you call on her. A night like
this will have made her suspicious of
every one. Our hope lies with you.
Anything on your mind?"
"Yes. Why not insert a personal
in the Herald?' She drew some
writing paper toward her and scrib-
bled a few words.
He read : "Florence — the 'hiding
Place Is discovered, Remove it to a
more secret spot at once. S. H."—He
laughed and shook his head, I'm
afraid that will never do."
"If she reads it, Jones will. The
man with the opera glasses may see
something. There's a chance Jones
might become worried."
"Well, we'll give it a chance."
It was midnight when he made his
departure. As he stepped into the
street he glanced about cautiously.
Oa the corner he saw a • policeman
swinging hie night-stick, Qtherwise
the street was deserted. Braine pro-
ceeded jauntily down the street.
And yet, from the darkened- doors
of the hoose across the way the. fig-
ure of a man emerged and stood con-
templating the windows of the Peri--
goff apartment, Suddenly the lights
went out. The watcher made no ef-
fort to follow Braine. The knowledge
he was after did not necessitate any
such procedure.
Of course, Florence read the "per-
sonal." She took the newspaper at
once to Jones, whb smiled grimly,
"You see, I trust you."
"And so long as yore continue to
trust me no harm will befall you. You
were left in my care by your father
I am to guard you at the expense of
nay life. Last night's affair .was a
miracle. Tne next time you will not
find it so easy to escape."
Nor did she.
"There will be to next time," .grave-
ly, "But I am going to ask you a
direct question, Is my father alive?"
The butler's brow puckered. "I
have promised to say nothing, one
way or the other."
She laughed.
"Why do you laugh?"
"I laugh because if he were dead
there would be no earthly reason
for you not saying so at once. But I
hate money, the name of it, the sound
of it, the sight of it. It is at the
bottom of all wars and crimes. I de-
spise it!"
"The root of all evil. Yet it per-
forms many noble needs. But never
mind the money, Let us give our at-
tention to this personal. Doubtless it
originated in the same mind which
conceived the letter. Your father
would never have inserted such a
personal, What! Give his enemies a
chance to learn his secret? No. On
the other bend, I want you to show
this personal to all you meet to-day—
Susan, the reporter, to everybody.
Talk about it. Say that you wonder
what you shall do. Trust no one with
your real thoughts."
"Not even you, Mr. Jones," thought
the girl as she nodded,
"And tell them that you ehowed it
to me and that I appeared worried."
That night there was a meeting of
the organization called the Black
Hundred. Braine asked if any one
knew what the Hargreave butler
looked like.
"I had a glimpse of him the other
night; but, being unprepared, I might
not recogniee him again."
Vroon described Jones minutely.
Braine could almost seo the portrait.
"Vroon, that memory of yours is
worth a lot of money," was his only
comment.
"•I hope it will be worth •more soon,"
"I believe I'll be able to recognize'
Mr- Jones if I see him. Who is he
and what is he?"
"He has been with Hargreave for
fourteen years. There was a homi-
cidal case in which Jones was active.
Hargreave saved him. He is faith-
ful and uncommunicative. Money
will not touch him. If he does know
where that million is, bot irons could'
not make him own up to it. The
only way is to watch him, follow him,
wait for the moment when he'll grow
caresless. No man is always on his
mettle; he lets up sooner or later,"
"Ile is being watched, as you know."
Vroon nodded approvingly, "The
captain of the tramp steamer Orient
by the way, was seenwith a roll of
money. He was in one of the water-
front ealoone, bragging how he had
hoodwinked some one."
"Did be say where he'd got the
calla?" asked Braine,
"They tried to pump him on their'
but he &hut up, Well, we have agreed'
that Felton shall watch from the
street at d Orloff from the window.
Orloff will whistle if he tees Janet
removing anything from any of the
rooms. The root well be left to Nil -
tore
"'And, Felton, my friend," *aid
Braine softly—he aiways spoke softly
when he was in a deadly humor—
"Felton, you slept on duty the other
night. Hargreave stole up, consulted
Jones, and got away after knocking
tate down. The next failure will mean
shat t shrift. Be warned!"
"I saw only you, sir, So help me. I
was not asleep, I saw you run down
the street after the taxieab, I did not
see any one else."
Braine shrugged. "Remember what
I eaid."
Felton bowed respectfully and made
his exit, He wiehed in his soul that
he might some day catch the master
mind free of hie eternal mask. It was
an iron band which ruled them, and
there were friende of hie (Felton's)
who had mysteriously vanished after
a brief period of rebellion, The boss
was a swell; probably belonging to
clubs be
and a .. society rets which he adroitly
pilfered. The organization always
bad money, Whenever !there was a
desperate job to be undertaken Vroon
simply poured out the money neces-
sary to promote it. Whenever Braine
and Vroon became engaged in earnest
eonversation they talked slay. Braine
was never called by name here; the
boes,'simpiy that.
Well 10 per cent. of a' million was
a hundred thousand. This wouid be
equally divided between the second
ten of the Black Hundred, Another
10 per cent, would go to eighty mew-
bers; the balance would bo divided
between Vroon and the boss. But his
soul rebelled at being ordered about
lize so much dirt under another
man's feet. He would take his ten
thousand and make the grand get-
away.
The next afternoon the princess
called upon Florence, Nothing was
said about the adventure; and this
fact created a vague -unrest in the
scheming women's mind. She real-
ized that 'she must play her cards
more ca^eful'y than •ever. Not the
least distrust must be permitted to
enter the child's head, Once that
happened goodbye to the wonderful
emeralds, Was it that she really
craved the stone? War it not rather
a venous acquired from the knowledge
that this child's mother had won what
Mae herself, with all her cleverness,
was not sure of--Braine's love? Did
hs. really carcefor her or was she only
the catspaw to pluck his hot chest-
nuts faom the fire?
When Florence showed her the
"personal," her vague doubts became
instantly dissipated. The child would
not have shown her the newspaper
had there been any distrust on her
part.
"My child, your father is alive h
'then?" animated.
"We don't know," sadely.
"Why, I should say that this proves
it,"
"On the contrary, it proves nothing
of the sort, since I have yet to die -
cover a treasure in this house. I have
hunted in every nook, drawer; I've
searched for panels, looked in trunks
for false bottoms, Nothing, nothing
"And what would you do with it?"
"Take it at once to some bank and
offer the whole of it for the safe re-
turn of my father, every penny of it
I don't know what to do, which way
to turn," tears gathering in her eyes
ani they were genuine tears too
'There are millions in stocks and
bonds and I cannot touch a penny of
it because the legal documents have
not been found. I can't even prove
that I am hie daughter, except for
half an old bracelet, and my father's
lawyers say that that would not hold
in any court."
' You were born in St. Petersburg,
my dear, Have the embassy there
look up the birth registers"'
"That would not put me into pos-
eession. Nothing but the return of
my father will avail me, And there's
a horrible thought always' of my not
being his real daughter."
"There's no doubt in my mind. I
have only to recall Katrina's face to
know whose child you are. But what
will you live on ?" Here was a far
greater mixup than she had calcu-
lated upon. Supposing, after all, it
was only a resemblance, that the child
was not Hargreave's, a substitute jut
to blind the Black Hundred ? To
keep them away from the true dough
ter'? Her mind grew bewildered over
such possibilities. The single and
"only way to settle all doubts was to
make this child a prisoner. If she
was Hargreave's true daughter he
would come out of his hiding,
She heard Florence answering her
question : "There is a suin of ten or
