BEGIN HERE TODAY HENRY RAND, a business man, is found murdered in a cheap hotel in Grafton. Police find a woman's handkerchief and the yellow stub of a theater ticket. JIMMY RAND, his son goes to MANSFIELD, where the theater is. The stub is traced to OLGA MAYNARD, a cabaret singer. Jimmy meets and falls in love with MARY LOWELL. Later he finds Olga. She faints at hearing she is wanted for murder. out with SAMUEL CHI i, a wealthy lawyer, sees Jimmy lift Olga into a taxi and misunder- stands, Olga tells police might have come into Possession of a man who “picked her up” two nights before the murder. Jimmy and Olga, out one night, get a swift glimpse of the man she says got the stub. Later the stub they identify him by his police photo as IKE JENS! Mary promises to marry Church, but later breaks the en- agement. Jimmy gets a phone call from Olga, saying she has found Jen- sen.” He rushes to her apart- ment to find her gone. Her dix- appearance is a newspaper sen- sation. Later, Jimmy accidentally sees KID DIVIS, a known intimate of Jensen, and trails him to a lonely house where he and Jen- sen are holding Olga prisoner. Jimmy sneaks in the house. When Jensen goes upstairs to answer the phone, he hits Divis over the head with a broken and- iron, then rushes after Jensen. In the fight that follows, Jen- sen crashes through the stair railing and breaks his neck. Jimmy takes Olga to a hospital, then goes to see LIEUTENANT O’DAY, ‘his police friend; who pagel him an important tele- ee makes O'Day promise to “let me handle this thing in my own way.” Now GO on “WITH THE sTORY HAPTER Lil Aside yee being one of its wealthiest mien, Samuel Church was ame of Mansfieid’s unexplained 'mys- Por instance, it was hard for the rage man in the street to under- ind why a bachelor should want Buch sal house, when somcthing smaller would have answered all, without sacrifice of comfort bs “beautiful surroundings, “Think of the’money he squanders often remarked.

Another leap from the position of an obscure mystery was his sudden lawyer to that of one of the best known in the city and, indeed, in that part of the state. As is so often the case, his prominence came hard on the heels of his newly acquired wealth, One day he had seen a fairly sue- cessful Jaw practitioner, and the t thing you heard he had bought this mansion and was suddenly looked up to as one of the brightest of legal lights, However grudgingly they may have looked on Sam Church's affluence, people were free to admit that he was a hard worker.

The silence was disturbing. Church stowly raised his eyes and then gave a sud- den start. “Good evening,” said Jimmy Rand. With admirable control, Church removed the pipe from his mouth and with both hands pushed himself back from the table. “How did you get in here?” he asked coolly, “The same way, I suppose, that most people get in—through the front door. How did you suppose 7” “But the butler, where—how — “Oh, your butler. Very fine butler ou have, Chureh. Didn't want to let me in at all.
