She might do anything, seek any revenge, work any evil, enjoy any mas tery as long as she should keep with in the law. There could be no pun ishment then. That was the lesson taught by the captain in high finance. He was at pains always In his stupen dous robberies to keep within the law. To that end he employed lawyers of mighty cunning and learning to guide his steps aright in such tortuous paths. There, then, was the secret. Why ehould she not use the like means? Why, indeed? She had brains enough to devise, surely. Ileyond that she needed only to keep her course most carefully within those limits of wrong doing permitted by the statutes. The sole requirement would be a lawyer equally unscrupulous and astute. She took Joe Garson into her con3 dence. He was vastly astonished at the outset and not quite pleased. To his view this plan offered merely a fashion of setting difficulties in the way of achievement. Presently, however, the sincerity and persistence of the girl won him over. The task of convincing him would have been easier had he himself ever known the torment of serving a term In prison. Thus far, however, the for-, ger ' had ' always escaped the penalty for bin crimes, though often close to conviction. Cut Mary's arguments were of a compelling sort as she set them forth in detail, and Garson agreed that the experiment should be made. An agreement was made by which Joe Garson and certain of his more trusted intimates in the underworld were to put themselves under the or ders of Mary concerning the sphere of their activities. Furthermore, they bound themselves not to engage in any devious business without her consent. Aggie, too, was one of the company thus constituted, but she figured little A few tentative ventures resulted In i profits so large that the company grew mightily enthusiastic over the novel manner of working. In each instance Harris was consulted and made his confidential statement as to the legali ty of the thing proposed. After a few perfectly Iegnl breach of promise suits, due to Aggie's winsome innocence of Ctn.anor, had been settled advan tageously out of court Mary devised a scheme of greater elaborateness, with the legal acumen of the lawyer to in dorse it In the matter of safety. It was planued as the swindling of a swindler, which, in fact, had now be come the secret principle la Mary's morality. A gentleman possessed of some means, none too scrupulous himself, but with high financial aspirations, ad vertised for a partner to invest capital In a business sure to bring large re turns. This advertisement caught the eye of Mary Turner, and she answered it. An introductory correspondence encouraged her to hope for the victory In a game of cunning against cunning. She consulted with Harris and espe cially sought from him detailed iufor matlon as to partnership law. His statements gave her such confidence that presently she entered Into a part nership with the advertiser. By the terms of their agreement each depos ited $30,000 to the partnership account This sum of $00,000 was ostensibly to be devoted to the purchase of a tract of land, which should afterward be divided into lots and resold to the publie at enormous profit. As a mat ter of fact, the advertiser planned to make a spurious purchase of the tract in question by means of forged deeds granted by an accomplice, thus mak ing through fraud a neat profit of $C0, 000. No sooner was the $'50,000 on deposit in the bank than Mary Turner drew out the whole amount, as she had a perfect right to do legally. When the advertiser learned of this he was. nat urally enough, full to overflowing with wrath. But after an interview with In the preliminary discussions, since ! ?Iarr1,3 Je flowed his wrath i as best " luiiit. uc iuuiiu ue coum not jro neither Mary nor the forger had much respect for the intellectual capabilities of the adventuress, though they appre ciated to the full her remarkable pow ers of inOuencing men to her will. It was not difficult to find a lawyer suited to the necessities of the under taking. Mary selected Sigismund Har ris, an attorney, Jrst in the prime of .his mental vigors, who possessed a knowledge of the law only to be equal ed by his disrespect for it. Forthwith the scheme was set in op eration. As a first step Mary Turner ay Pi v f'- ....: :- : - '.: - A I ' J mtL ..... : ( "i'it vj - r i' t--. '" 't tv: "- . Aggie's Winsome innocence. became a young lady of Independent fortune, who had living with her a cousin. Miss Agnes Lynch. The flat was abandoned. In its stead was an apartment In the Nineties on Iliverside drive, iu which the ladies lived alone with two maids to serve them. Garson had rooms in the neighbor hood, but Jlni Lynch, who persistently refused the coMditions of such an alli ance, betook himself afar, to continue his reckless gathering of other folk's money In such wise as to make him amenable to the law the very first time he should be caught at it, . . . into court with clean hands, which Is a prime stipulation of the law, though often honored in the breach. So he let himself bo mulcted In raging si lence. The event established Mary as the arbiter In her own coterie. She next decided that a certain General Hast ings would make an excellent sacrifice on the altar of justice and to her own miiijn jirouu loe oiu man was a notorious roue, of most unsavory rep utation as a destroyer of innocence. It was probable that he would easily fall a victim to the ingenuous charms of Aggie. As for that precocious dam sel, she would run no least risk of de duction by the satyr. General Hastings met Aggie iu the most casual way. He was captivated by her freshness and beauty, her de mureness, her ignorance of all things vicious. Straightway he set snares. He showered every gallant attention on the naive, bread and butter miss and succeeded gratifyingly soon in winning her heart to all appearance. But he gained nothing more, for the coy creature abruptly developed most effective powers of resistance to every blandishment that went beyond strict est propriety. His ardor cooled sud denly when Harris served a summons in a suit for $10,000 damages for breach of promise. Even while this affair was still in the course of execution Mary found her self engaged In a direction that offered at least the hope of attaining her great desire revenge against Edward Gil der. This opportunity came in the person of hi3 son. Dick. After much contriving, she got an introduction to that young man. Forthwith she show ed herself so deliciously womanly, so intelligent, so daintily feminine. o singularly beautiful that the young man was enamored almost at once. The fact thrilled Mary to the depths of her heart, for In this son of the man whom she hated she saw the instru ment of vengeance for which she had so longed. Yet this one;thingj was "so vital to her that she said nothing of her purposes, not even to Aggie, though that observant person may have possessed suspicions more or less near the truth. It was some such suspicion that lay behind her speech as, in negligee, she sat.amoklng a cigarette, while watchr Ing Mary, who was adjusting her hat before the mirror of her dressing table one pleasant spring morning. "Dollin' up a whole lot. ain't you?" Aggie remarked affably, with that lax ity of language which characterized her natural moods. "I have a very Important engage ment with Dick Gilder," Mary replied tranquilly. "Nice boy, ain't he?" Aggie ventur ed Insinuatingly. " "Oh. I suppose so." came the indif ferent answer from Mary as she tilted the picture hat to an angle a trifle more jaunty. "I don't get you. Mnry. You never used to look at th men. The way yoa acted when you first run round with me, I thought you sure was a suf fragette. And then you met this roung Gilder and good night, nurse!" "Well?" "His old man sends you np for a stretch for something you didn't do. and you take up with his son like" "And yet you don't understand!" There was scorn for such gross stupid ity In the musical voice. Aggie choked a little from the cigar ette smoke as she gave a gasp when suspicion of the truth suddenly dawn ed on her slow intelligence. "Hully gee!" Her voice came in a treble shriek of apprehension. "I'm wise!" "But you must understand this." Mary went on. with an authoritative note in her voice. "Whatever may be between yonng Gilder and me I to be strictly my own affair. It has abso lutely nothing to do with the rest of you or with our schemes for money making. And. what is more. Agnes, I want to know what you meant by talking in the public street yesterday with a common pickpocket." Aggie's childlike face changed swift ly Its expression from a sly eagerness to sullenness. "You know perfectly well. Mary Tur ner," she cried indignantly, "that 1 only said a few words in passln to my brother Jim. And he ain't no com mon pickpocket Hully'geel HeVtbe best dip In the business." "But you must not be seen speaking with him," Mary directed, with a cer tain air of command now become ha bitual to her among the members of her clique. "My cousin. Miss Agnes Lynch, must be very careful as to her associates." "He just stopped me to say it's been the best year he ever had," she ex plained, with ostentatious vanity. "now can that be when the dead line now Is John street?" "The dead line!" Aggie scoffed. "Why, Jim takes lunch every day In inimitably done. But in the next in- Istant the ordinary vulgarity of enun ciation was in full play again. "Oh. gee!" she cried gayly. "He says In; spector Burke's got a gold watch that weighs a ton. nn all set with dlamon's. which was give to im by ndmirin' friends! We didn't contribute." "Given to him," Mary corrected, with a tolerant smile. hat difference does It make?" Ag gie demanded scornfully. "ITe's got it, ain't he? Just as soon as I get time I'm goin after that watch be lieve me!" "No, you are not. You are under my orders now. And as lone as vou are working with us you will break no laws." "But I can't see" Aggie began to argue with the petulance of a spoiled chili. "When you were working alone did you have a home like this?" "No." "Or such clothes? Most of all. did you have safety from the police?" 4No; but. Just the same, I can't see "Agnes, the richest men In this coun- er's cousin. You served two vnars in Iliiriising- fir blackmail. Vou wore arrosti.d in Huiralo, convict ed ami served your stretch. Noth ing- mi you? Well, well!" Again there was triumph in the of ficer's chuckle. He went on speaking with obvious enjoyment of the extent to which his knowledge reached. "And the head of the gang is Mary Turner. Arrested four years ago for robbing the Emporium. Did her stretch of three years." "Is that all you've got about her?" Garson demanded with such abrupt ness that Cassidy forgot his dignity sufficiently to answer with an unquali fied yes. "Nothing in your record of her about her coming out without a friend In the world and trying to go straight? You ain't got nothing In that pretty little book of your'n about your going to the millinery store where she finally got a job and tipping them off to where she come from?" "Sure, they was tipped off. We got to protect the city." tfuTlawyer's manner became unusually bland and self satisfied as he opened a drawer of the desk and brought forth a rather formidable appearing document, bearing a most Impressive 8eaL "You will bo glad, to know," he went on unctlously, -that I was entirely successful la carrying out that Idea ef yours as to the Injunction. My dear Miss Turner, Portia was a squawking baby compared with you," "Thank yoa again." Mary answered as she took the legal paper. For a moment her glance ran over the words of the page. "It's splendid!" she declared. "Did you have much trouble in getting It?" "Why, no," he declared. "But at the outset when I made the' roquest the Judge Just nearly fell off the bench.
