came speeding from all directions to the
sacred inner court of the Dare studios.
At the Dare private flying field, a score
of lien suddenly appeared; the doors of
the hangars were opened, and two speedy
pursuit planes roared forth and vanished
into the night., And at Wolf Creek, a crew
of linemen, acting upon mysterious orders
that had come by telephone from certain
high offices, worked for an amazingly long
time at a simple task that should have required
not more than twenty minutes.
An hour and at half had passed when
three ears with lights dimmed low sped tip
the bare pretense of a road that led up to
the scene of the engineering catastrophe,
to discharge a grim group of nlen. At a
word from their leader they separated
into two groups anti set off in opposite directions.
Then Harold Dare himself stepped
out before the battery of floodlights and
spoke into the microphone standing on a
pedestal.
"Friends," he said, in a low, earnest
voice that found instant response in the
heart of every listener, "there is one who
has plotted for years to work my ruin -
a veritable fiend in human form, whom all
the world knows and hates. As principal
stockholder in a certain power corporation,
he has clone his utmost to hurt me by endangering
the confidence of the public in
me and my new power project. Dandy
1)iaolo and his minions are responsible for
the three successive breakdowns in the
Wolf Creek line. What proof? See for
yourself. Watch the three insulators which
suspend the cables of the Wolf Creek line."
-The crew of linemen scurrieddovn from
their tower. One by one the floodlights
dimmed. In the televisor was seen the
group of large strings of insulators hanging
from the cross -arms.
"Now, operators at Wolf Creek are starting
the turbines, sending half a million
volts surging along those cables."
A faint glow appeared about the ends
of the insulators. Momentarily it grew.
A tongue of light darted out from the cable,
then spat across to the corona shield and
vanished. A flickering halo encircled the
tips of the insulators, gradually spreading
into a luminous cone. 'l'hen suddenly a band
of flame ripped across the gap. With a
report as of a cannon, two huge insulators
plunged downward. Two heavy cables swung
sinuously out against the tower; two bursts
of flame, a shower of chops of molten copper,
and the line was dead.
"Lights!" cried Dare. From the truck
which had been backed to the edge of the
cliff, two huge searchlights suddenly shot
long shafts of light' downward into the
depths of the valley below; and where the
two accusing .fingers pointed,- the ttcgrld
saW a group of swarthy,. cyilfnced -nten
gathered about a truck almost entirely
screened from view by the surrounding
shrubbery. Even as they leaped to their
feet, n dozen stalwart men stepped out of
the darkness on all sides, guns in hand,
and the henchmen looked into a circle of
menacing muzzles. With one accord they
raised their hands heavenward.
'l'he operator of the televisor adjusted
his instrument for a close -up. Upon television
screens everywhere, a group of
si range instruments :and glass tubes of
peculiar shapes Were seen to cover the
truck; and in the foreground glared the
cruel, evil features of Dandy Diavolo. I -Ie
