Look for the “Wear- Eer” window display (Continued from Yesterday's Star.) ‘|1 ‘'You promised me you'd go home, na cut this out! said Kelly in sharp reproéf. “Now, go on!” He turned on the detective. ‘'Yes, and you, too!" Get out of here! Yon ought to know better! The man's had enough! Haven't you got anything else to do than hang around bumming drinks? I know you, and I've a mind to report you! Get out!” Dave Henderson slunk out through the door without protest. On the side- walk the man with the brown peaked cap joined him. “Kelly's sore.” Dave Henderson's tones were heavy with tolerant pity and magnanimous forgiveness. “Or friend—be all right tomorrow. Letsh 80 somewhere else for a drink. What- sher shay?” “Sure!” said the man in the brown peaked cap. ‘The detective was complacently agreeable to all suggestions. It wi Dave Henderson who acted as guld and he began a circuit of saloons in a direction that brought him sensibly nearer at each visit to the street and house occupied by one Nicolo Capriano. In the same block with Capriano’s house he had noticed that there was also a saloon, and if Capriano’s hou had an exit on the lane, so, likewise, it was logical to presume, had saloon. And that saloon now, barring intermediate stops, was his objective. But he was in no hurry. There was one point on which he had still to satis- fy himself before he gave this man Speen the slip in that saloon, and, By the ‘lane, gained the rear door of Nicolo Capriano’s house. He knew now that he was dealing with the police; but was Speen detailed alone to the case, or did Speen have assistance at hand in the background —assistance enough, say, scared off, any move on the part of Bookie Skarvan’'s and Baldy Vickers’ gang, of whom, certainly, he had seen nothing as yet?

The Old Gardener Says: - Many gardeners get enough surplus beans in their gardens to give them beans for baking all the winter through. Of course the beans must be thor- oughly dried and then removed from the vines. It is a good plan to pull up the vines and tie them to stakes or spread them on racks until the beans ripen, for if left out through a few heavy rains they are likely to be beaten down and lost, There - are several _ways of threshing out the beards. One of jthe easiest is to put them in a barrel and pound them with a stick, or if there are only & few, into a bag, the bag being beaten on the floor.

Several saloons were . visited. Dave Henderson no longer cupped hfs hand around his glass. Having had nothing to start with, he could drink frankly, and a shaky hand- could be trusted to spill any ovépgenerous portion: They became confidential. He confided to Speen what Speen already knew— that he, Dave Henderson, was Dave Henderson, and just out from the penitentiary. Speen, stating that his name was Monohan, reciprocated with mendacious confidences that implied he was puritanical in neither his mode of life nor his means of liveli- hood—and. began to throw out hints that he was not averse to a share in |\ any game that Dave Henderson might have on hand. Dave Henderson got along very| badly now between the various oases that quenched his raging thirst. He leaned heavily on Speen, he stumbled frequently, and, in stumbling, ob- tained equally frequent views of both sides of the street behind him. No one seemed to be paying any atten- tion to his companion or himself, and yet once or twice he had caught sight of skulking figures that, momentarily at least, had aroused his suspicions. But in this neighborhood there were many skulking figures! Again he could not be sure; but the saloon in Capriano's block was the next one ahead now, and certainly nothing had transpired that would seem to neces- sitate any change being made in his plans. Speen, too, was felgning now a cer- tain degree of intoxication. They reached the saloon, reeled through the door, arm in arm, and ranged up alongside the bar. Dave Henderson' eyes swept his surroundings, critical of every detail. It was an unpleas- ant and dirty plac and the few loungers, some seated at little table. some hanging ‘over .the bar ({tself, were a hard and ugly looking lot. The clientele, however, interested Dave Henderson very little—at' the rear of thd room, and but a few yards from the end of the bar, there was an open door, discloisng a short pas- sage beyond, that interested him a great deal more! Beyond that pas- ge was undoubtedly the back yard, and beyond that again was the lane. He.had no desire to harm Speen, none whatever; but if any one of a dozen pretexts, that he might make to elude the man for the moment or two that was necessary to gain the yard un- observed, did not suceed, and Speen persisted in following him out there into the yard—well, so much the worse for Speen that was al He was arguing now with Speen, each claiming the right to pay for the drink—but his mind was sifting through those dozen pretexts for the most plausible one to employ. He kept on arguing. Customers slouch- ‘ed in and out of the place; some sat down at the tables, some came to the bar. One, a hulk of a man, unshaven, with bull-breadth shoulders, with nose flattened over on one side of his cheek, stepped up to the bar beside Speen. Speen’s back was turned, but the man grinned hospitably at Dave Henderson over Speen’s shoulder, as he listened to the argument for a moment. * “Put.away your money, son, an' have a drink with me,” he invited. Speen turned. The grin on the battered face of the newcomer faded instantly, as he stared with apparently sudden recog- nition into Speen's face; and a black, ugly scowl spread over the already unhandsome features. “Oh, it's you, is {t?” he said hoarsely, and licked his lips. “By God, you got a nerve to come down here—you have! You dirty police spy!” peen was evidently not easily stampeded. He eyed the other levelly. | “I guess you've got the wrong man, haven't you?’ he returned coolly enough. “My name's Monahan, and I don’t know you.’ “You lie!” snarled the other vicious- And you ly. “Your name's Speen! don’t know me—don’'t you?” ‘No!” said Speen. “You don’t eh?” The man thrust his face almost into Speen’s. “You don't remember a year ago gettin’ me six months on a fake plant, eith- er, 1 suppos ‘No!" said Speen. You n’t, eh?” snarled the man again. “A hell of a bad memory you've got, ain’'t you? Well, I'll fix it for you so you won't forget me so easy next time, and— It came quick, without warning— before Dave Henderson could move. He saw a great, grimy fist whip for- ward to the point of Speen’s jaw, and he caught a tiny reflected gleam of light from an ugly brass knuckle- duster on one of the fingers of the clenched fist; and Speen’s knees seem- €d to crumble up under him, and he ‘went down in a heap to the floor. Dave Henderson straightened up from the bar a hard, grim smile twisting across his lips. It had been a brutal act. Speen might be policeman, and . Speen, lying there senseless, solved a certain little dif- ficulty without further effort on his, Dave Henderson's, part; but the bru- tality of the act had him in its grip. There was a curious itching at his finger tips for a clutch that would maul this already battered bruiser’s face beyond recognition. His eyes circled the room. The men at the tables had risen to their feet; some ‘were pushing forward, d one, he saw over his shoulder, ran around the far end of the bar and disappeared. Speen lay inert, a huddled thing on the floor, a crimson stream spilling its way down over the man's white collar. The twisted smile on Dave Hender- son’s lips deepened. The bruiser was watching him .like a cat, and there was a leer ‘on the other’s face that seemed to possess some.hidden sig- nificance. Well, perhaps he would change that leer with whatever its significance might be into something still more unhappy!
