Betty held a phone conversation with Geraldine on Saturday, Christmas Eve, during which the latter said she wished phoned Geraldine’s mother and learned she had not arrived for the holiday.

Let’s go.” Thatcher Colt got into the car and leaning far back he began to fill his pipe. As we started down the shelf-like street that runs along the brink of Morningside, the chief remarked: “Now, why didn’t that charming Betty tell us about that quarrel, Tony? And why didn’t she tell us that she was once engaged to Ger- aldine’s brother, Bruce?” “How did you learn that?” I asked quickly. “From .the father, while you were down in the cellar.

The state insurance enterprises, under Mr. Olsness’ direction, have been outstanding among public busi- ness ventures in the United States, but what can happen, even where the business is handled with unquestion- ed skill and unimpeachable honesty, is indicated by the present status of the state hail department. As the result of a law passed two years ago it thas £2.000,000 in uncollected debts on | its books, This is distinctly not the fault of ‘Mr. Olsness or of his administration, ‘but the fact does illustrate how easily _ public business enterprises may get into trouble—or have it thrust upon ) them as was done in this case. It is more than possible that the state’s insurance enterprises would ‘not have been successful if they had ‘been administered less honestly or E Jess capably. Few will contend that out of keeping with the needs of the hour. We are in the midst of trying | times when employers are just as! anxious as workingmen can be to} keep their business going and furnish wages to as many as possible. But it ts a troubled period through which we are passing when the order of the day ought always to be conference and cooperation between Labor and Capital and when nothing could be so ill-timed and disastrous as a quar-| relsome and bitter tone on either) side.

Something hea occurred to him that we had it noticed. Slowly he turned and walked over to the desk, sat down, studied a memorandum Betty had left there, then lifted the desk fountain pen from its swivel holder and began to write on a blanl sheet of note-paper lying near his hand, What he was writing I could not see, It was only a short sentence, and, having put down his pen, he “shoved the paper from him, regard- | ed it frowningly, as if expecting it at any moment to become animat- ed and perform a trick for him. Perhaps three minutes of utter silence passed while he watched that piece of paper. Then he lift- | ed it and held it close to his eyes, slanting the paper to an oblique | position, looking sharply askance ought to be down there now. Show Burke this scrap of torn note, and tell him to go through all the waste paper in the cellar if it takes a week until he finds the rest of the pieces.” With a single electric bulb burn- ing, I left Detective Sergeant Burke seated on a stool in front of two immense bales of waste pa- per gathered from twelve floors of apartments in the Esplanade. owing that this would be, at least, an all night job, I started back to the apartment on the fourth floor. But I never got k| there, for I found Thatcher Colt impatiently waiting for me in the lobby. As we hastened out to the sidewalk, I told him that Burke had started on his task. Before we could say more, we were at the Commissioner’s car, and Neil McMahon saluted and announced he had something of interest to impart. Neil’s actual words were: “Chief, I got some dirt for you on this Foster case.” “Well?” “I just got it from the janitor, He was telling me that on or about 8:10 a. m. on the morning of De- By the light shining through the transom, we saw him clearly, a little man, bent forward as if slightly hunchback. His hands were sunk deep into his trousers Pockets, his eyes were sliding obliquely and slyly from side to side, as if he were watchful of a sudden attack. As he hesitated a emer he muttered to him- self: “Get me to talk? Never. Get to Belt Meter. Think I can re- member? Never, never, never. But Gasltics ne ind to me at last phrase — “But Ger. aldine was kind to me” — seemed to echo in the dark air, as he rushed down the steps and fled past us without a glance. Across the street he hopped into the parked square, and vanished, “Now, who do you suppose that ‘I don’t know,” replied m, chief, “but I certainly “mean CA find out.” And as we climbed the marble steps, he added: “He had a face like an ape and yet his eyes were hot simian hey were human, and demented .
