made for something. There was no

Mr. Severn, if they tumbled to his

Certainly Martejl and Sant had
"tumbled fo his game” last njght.
Jim realized—had looked aghast as
this utterly unsuspected enemy Non-
chalantly, and perhaps too confi-
dently and prematurely, showed his
hand. Had they countered with a
lightning-swift blow?
And had that <opp ilsham had

run across to the rifted desk; he
put his hand into one of the pigeon

Then they remembeved that Web-

Jim that it wa* like a repetition of

sudden vague uneasy premonition
of something amiss behind those cur-,
