Flying, In 1303, did not mean spo-
dially constructed helmet, leather • coat,
parachute, and goggles, Wilbur
Wright, in cloth cap and his working
clothes, climbed onto the lower wing
of the. plane. Tho pilot was to lie
prone, as in the gliders. A kind of
"cradle" fitted his hips; by its move-
ment he manipulated the flexible
wings and the rudder. In one hand he
gripped the elevator lever. The mo-
tor clattered and roared. Everything
was ready.
'Wilbur released the catch by which
1 the reetralning wire was held, and
;with a rush the machine darted for-
ward,
The landing was disastrous, The
left wing swung down too late for Wil-
bur to regain balance by use of the
rudder and wing -warping, and scraped
along the ground. The machine swung
around, dug tete skids into the sand
and broke one of them. Other minor
parts lit the framework were broken,
Flyiire was ended for that day.
But it took more than that to dis-
courage Wil and Ory Wright.
Late in the afternoon of December
16111, two days later, the
iidpai and
d
other damaged parts were
and final rtijustments were being
made. The ma('hine was standing on
the track in front of the sired 'which
had been Intik for it, and Wilbur and
Orville, b, themeelves', were working
over it. A stranger, a 1na1 who bad
never seen the curious craft before,
came past. Silently he surveyed the

CHAPTER XXIII,—(Cont'd.)
Peter spoke rapidly, cmphaticalty,
but without raising his ,voice. His
head was thrust a little forward, his
bright, near-sighted gray' eyes steal-
ily fixed on the dark face before him..
He saw that face whiten about the
lips, saw the veins bulge at the tem-
ples—and stepped back just 'in time
to avoid the lunging sidewise, blow
whose °impetus brought Ellsworth
through the_open door, which crashed
shut behind him.
Don required Peter's steadying
touch on his elbow to recover his bal-
ance and prevent his plunging for-
ward down the steps. He was not
even conscious of that briefly support-
ing hand,
"I may not keep the public out, nit
l can keep you out!" he said, turning
toward the vague blot of shadow on
the darkened porch, which was Peter.
"And every other newspaper reporter,
too. I've not one single word to give
to the press, now or at any A
time. That's my answer!"
"Very well," said Peter inrpert l: b -
ably; but he said it to Don Ellsworth's
back, rapidly losing its form as a
shadow amongother shadows AS
he
dashed down the driveway, his feet
scuffling with vicious force on the
unoffending gravel.
"And the worst of it is," erased'
Peter as he followed at a more leis-
urely gait, pausing to light a cigar'
ette from a crumpled package which
he exhumed from his overcoat pocket.
"he may have to give all those words

office,. and they'll pass then along to

Decidedly, such a culmination would,
not be without its points.
Neither, 'Peter discovered, was the
pergola without its points. They were
the sharp; half-inch points of a par-
ticularly stalwart variety of climbing
rose. They made lolig claw -marls on
his calves and his hands seemed to
encounter them with unerring and
painful precision,
"Gosh, what a cat -fight!" breathed
Peter. "If I don't claim damages
under the workmen's compensation
act for this—"
He began his climb at 'the farther,
garden end of the pergola, and walk-
ed, crouching, along the top, where
progress was easier, except when his
foot slipped thiough the squares of
the lattice, And then, in a state which
it seemed to him must of one of flut-
tering ribbons, he reached the hoose
wall at last, and, squatting on his
thighs, looked into the brightly light-
ed boudoir of Sheila O'Shay.

Pete!, however, did not recross tl'e

and gazed upward at the dark side of

at the rear, and above the pergola to

As if in answer a light --bright, de•

room over the pergola, on the second
floor.
"Now I wonder. Suppose I have a

I can just climb down again. If it
is, I'll crash the front door, ask fax

stood fiddling with the door -knob, ob-

in the room. The stolid set of Dr.
Cavanaugh's shoulders and his relax-

indicated bland and patient waiting.
In the darkness Peter grinned,
