He did not want to have a real blowout. He wanted to get as near headquarters as he could before the British police headed him off. The car careened around the corner and headed down a tree-lined street. Dusk was beginning to settle and Stan switched on the lights. He was disgusted to see that the lights were hooded for blackout driving.
Cut out a circular plate of metal 4 inches across, make a central hole of the size of the steam dome, and bend the plate to the curve of the inside of the barrel. To make it impossible for the steam dome to blowout, let it extend half an inch through the barrel, and pass a piece of 1/4-inch brass rod through it in contact with the barrel.

"Some climb and no mistake!" murmured Dave. "Can you make it, Roger?" "Top or bust!" was the laconic answer. Scarcely had the senator's son spoken when there came a loud report from the front end of the car. "A blowout!" gasped Phil. "The front tire on this side has gone to pieces!" announced Bert. "Will you have to stop?" "Can't not here!" announced Roger, grimly.
"It does, indeed, if one happens to have a blowout," laughed the girl. "I have trouble keeping chauffeurs. The darkness breaks their nerve, and they play out in two or three months. I've known them to crack under the strain in a week, and yet all the time I want to go faster faster.
