and Angellotl a week in which to
make up their minds they had lost
the trail; then to call them in.
Oa the sixth day, however, he received Information that the doughty
pair were still as busy as two pupa

l&dy called on him at his office and
told him so.
"And who might yon he?" he demanded.

The girl nodded. "Nance Belden

French line's San Francisco office.
After some difficulty he discovered
that four hundred and thirty-five
dollars was payment of one first
cabin passage to Havre and that
the Be de France had sailed from
New fork during the past three
days.
Instantly Dan McNamara shot a
straight telegram to police headquarters in New Stork, requesting
that the passenger list of the lie de
France be checked to see whether
Nance Belden or Penelope Gatlln
had taken passage on her. Four
hours later he received a reply to
the effect that Nance Belden was
not aboard but that Penelope Gat4lB;W**t;'

That Flynn was a marvel, and
McNamara sighed to think the fellow could not be promoted instantly. In all probability he bad not at

obvious conclusion was that she
