i ] 3 THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, TUESDAY SEPT. 9 POLLY D HER PALS e 3V F You ANT LISTEN, Youms—) Your DauGHTER? ) { E BEEN STARING THATS 1 GuY FER STARING T A PRETTY SYNOPSIS: Dr. Paul Kane is found dead under his bedroom window late on the night he was to have examined Elsa Chase, beautiful crippled girl, guest at the Washington home of Ar- nold Winslow. She is engaged to marry Jack, Arnold Winslow’s adopted son. Suspecting Elsa is not all she seems, the elder Winslow has engaged G. Thorne, detective, to investigate her past. An autopsy proves Kane died of poison. Jack, in- censed at his father's disparag- ing remarks about Elsa, chokes him. Late one night, Lucy, the maid, out to mail a letter, is terrified at seeing the shadow of a human figure, madly dancing, silhouetted on a cur- tain on a ground-floor window. At the coroner’s inquest it is testified that Kane was poisoned by carbon monoxide gas, appar- ently introduced somehow into the small bathroom from the window of which he fell. It develops that Jack Winslow, wanted as a witness at the in- quest, is missing. Chapter 13 A WORTHLESS CHECK Lambert's place in the witness chair was taken respectively by the cook and the chauffeur; the first stated she knew nothing of Dr. Kane's death until she came downstairs Tuesday morning, and that had heard no unusual noises in the night Peter, tl chauffeur, had nothing of interest to He was on the point of leaving the platform when Coroner Penfield's uplifted hand stopped him “When did you last see Mr. she Jack STOP IT, PawW I wirt!

Come, sir, did you?” “Yes.” “And bank?” “Yes.” Glover looked shame-faced- ly about. “It was nfarked ‘N.G."” The good looks of the pretty housemaid, next on the witness stand, were distinctly marred, or so the coroner thought, by the | patches of red on each cheek, but while he attributed the over-bril- liant color to rouge, Lucy's head felt light from the fever consuming her. | “well, Miss Smith.” The coro- ner’s voice echoed loudly in Lucy's ears. “And what were you doing on Monday night, say between the hours of ten p.m. and two am.?” | “Please, sir, sleepin’.” | “Did you see Dr. Kane?” he in- !quired after a second’s pause. “I was in the hall when he got out of the elevator with Mrs. Wins- low,” she responded. “Mr. Winslow 'told me to be sure and put plenty of clean towels in his bathroom, so I carried more in there.
