on the deck of the scooter miles away by this time out in the sound dick was still a prisoner and he was not broadcast ing anything a steam shovel was loading a coal car on the track from the huge piles of coal that had been unloaded on the dock everywhere about the dock was activity there was no loafing on these jobs thus it was that when the noon whistle suddenly blew there was no delay in

ruth did not hesitate they turned and fled hey hes over here the call did not stop them they knew in an instafit that they had been led into a trap by the faithless hank over piles of lumber about heaps of coal dodging around the dock houses and tracks everywhere the flight led them here ruth quick ken had sensed that their pursuers were gaining on them that some ruse must be resorted to if they were ever to escape he pulled ruth up with him and they dropped quickly into a coal car crouching below the protecting sides the thugs dashed past turned started scouting about to pick up their
