That d sector and Tom stepped him there in record time. a The address Tom had was an unlighted house. And then the fare says, Buddy, I forgot to bring my dough along. Come in and Ill get the old bankroll. Tom stumbled into that dark hallway. He hadnt gone ten feet until he felt a gun jammed against his vest buttons. And that passenger was saying, Gimme that dough. Tom had just been paid and business had been good and he had about eighty dollars in the old jeans. And there was nothing to do but to fork it over. Then the passenger said, Now that Im heeled, well be going places. And see that you dont stop and talk to any cops. Well, Tom sat there at the wheel with that gun in his back, wheeling to the toughest speakeasies in the city.

And a colored banjo player who had been dozing jumped two feet off his chair, and how he did play! Tom groaned as the gunman ordered him back into the car for another ride to a different section, where Tom knew the toughest gangsters in Cleveland hung out. It was a long drive and when Tom got behind that old wheel and out into the air his brain began working normally. He had an idea. Yes, sir, by golly, hed do some of the fanciest speeding on record and if a Cleveland cop didnt stop him within a block or two well, it would be different from his ordinary run of luck. But Toms luck hadnt begun to break for him. It was after 2 oclock and all the motorcycle cops had gone home. All Tom could hope for was that some traffic cop might be left on duty and anxious to make a pinch. . , That isnt a very brilliant policeman. Well, his buttons sparkle bullet-splinter- SOUPS ON!

But no blue-cogun wobbling around against the back of his neck and jabbing into him at every bump in the road. Tom was desperate. And just then, ahead of him loomed the lights of another car. It swung across the roadway in a left turn. Tom had been wishing for a little accident that would at- - ' tract the cops, but nothing like that. He swerved sharply and the front of the cab missed the rear of the other car, but something ripped into the center of Toms cab. That old taxi with Tom and the yegg turned a complete somersault. Well, that crash brought out the crowds and plenty of cops. They pulled Tom out of the wreckage in a daze and carried him into a restaurant. A pitcher of water splashed into Toms face and he began to realize what it was all about. One of his first thoughts was that at last he was rid of that gunman. Then he opened his eyes and there was that bird, standing right beside him, all mussed up but unhurt. But there were also cops and Tom was just trying to get his voice back when the holdup man leaned over him and handed him a roll of bills. The yegg said, Take this, kid, and keep your trap shut. Then he slipped into -- the washroom and disappeared. Tom came out of it after a few minutes and explained everything to the police. Then he counted that roll of bills and he was only $3 short, including a $14 bill on the taxi meter. And, by golly, his commission on that bill was just three bucks, so he was even on that night of wild advenin sight. First Fijian (after a fine dinner) Dat missionary shore done meh good!
