N\ SRHAPS race horses may be a little out of your line, Mr. Kennedy, but I think you will find the case sufficiently interesting to warrant you in taking it up. Our visitor was a young man, one weo¢ the most carefully groomed and corrdetly dressea 1 have ever met. His card told us that we were hon- ored by a visit from Montague Broadhurst, a noted society whip, who bud (avished many thousands of dol- lars on his racing stable out on Long 1sland. “ou. 'see,” he went on hurriedly, “there have been @ good many strange things that have happened to my horses lately.” He paused a moment then continue hey have been los- ing consistently. Take my favorite, Lady Lee, for instance. “Do you think they have been doped?” asked Kennedy quickiy, easer 1o get down Lo the point at issue, 1or | 1 had never known Craig to be inter- in racin don't kno replied the young millonaire, drawing his eyelids to- sether reflectively. “I've hau tae best vedeTinary in the country Lo look my steble over, and even he can’t seem to firffl & thing that's wrons. ‘“Perhaps a visit oui there might shes us something,” cut in Kennedy, as~though he wer¢ ratner favorabiy infbressed, after all, by the novelty of the case. Broadhurst's face brightened. “Then you will take it up—you are . intercsted”"he queried, aading, "My car is outside.” “I'm Interested in anything that prgmises a new experience,” returned ¢Cosig, “and I think this affair may be ofethat sort.” oadhurst's stable was out on cen- tr@) Long Isiand, not far trom the puetty and fashionable town of North- bwry. As we passcd down the main stfbet 1 could see that Broadhurst was easily the most popular of the WInlthy residents of the neighbor- ¢ hapd. In fact, the Broadhurst racing susbles were a sort of local industry, oge of the show-places of Northbury. we swung out again into tne country we could see ahead of us e stable boys working out several A{fp thoroughbreds on Broadhurst's palvate track, while a group of grooms and rubbers watched them. e stable itsell was a circular a@air of frame, painted dark red which contrasted sharply with the n of the carly summer trees. adhurst's car pulled up before a lagge office and lounging room at one .E. above which Murchie, his man- ager and trainer, had his suite of rooms. oFhe office into which Broadhurst led uk .was decidely “horsey.” About the place were handsomely mounted sad- d[eg. bridles and whips, more for ex- jon than for use. In velvet-lined were scores of glittering bits. the appointments were brass mounted. Sporting prints, trophies afid mission easy chairs made the ro6m most attractive. Before a desk sat Murchie. As 1 looked at him I thought that he had 4 cruel expression avout his eyes, # predatory mouth and chin. He rose ckly at the sight of Broadhurst. “Murchie, I would Iike to have you meet my friends, Mr. Kennedy ana Mi. Jameson," introduced Broadhurst. “They are very much interested in horses and 1 want you to show thém about the place and let them see everything." We chatted a moment and then went to look at the horses. In the center of the circular group of stalls was a lawn. The stalls of the racers in training were large box stalls. “You have certainly trained a great horse in Lady Lee.” remarked Ken- nedy casually, as we made our Way around the ring of stalls. Murchie looked up at him quickly. “Until the last few races I thought %0 he replied, stopping before the atall of the famous racer and opening the door. Lady Lee was a splendid three-year- old bay, a quivering. sensitive, high- strung animal. _Murchie Jooited at her a moment, thep at us. “A horse, you know," he said ré- Just as ambitious to win u flectively, a race as you are to win succes: 1 keep must have hard training. horses in training eight or mnine months out of the year. I get them into shape in_the early spring ahd am very careful what they eat. If they get a vacation, they may eat green foods. carrots and grass ‘in open fleld; but when we prepare them for the ring or a race they must have grain, bran and soft foods. They must have careful grooming to put the coats in first-class condition; must be kept exquisitely clean, with the best ventilation. “How about exercise?” asked Ken- nedy. “Well,” replied Murchie, “I work out horses according to age. with the distance for fast work gradually in- icreased.” < Our trip through the wonderful stable over, we returned to the office, Murchie walking ahead with Broad- hurst. As we reached the door Broadhurst turned to us. “I hope you will pardon me" he said, “but there Is some budiness up zat the house that I must attend to."” “Oh, Mr. Broadhurst” interjected Murchie, “before You go back to town 1 want to talk over with you some of the changes that ought to be made about the boys here, as well as their food and quarters.” “All right,” returned Broadhurst; “jump Into the car and ride with me. We can talk on the way and you can come right back. Il pick you gen- tiemen up later. Kennedy nodded, quick to perceive the cue that Broadhurst had given him to watch the stables without Murchie watching us. We sat down in the office and 1 looked about at the superb fittings. “Do you think it is possible for an owner to make a financial success of racing without betting?" I asked Ken- nedy. “Possible, but highly imBrobable,” returned Craig. “I believe they con- sider that they have an excellent year Whenever they clear expenses. 1 don't know about Broadhurst, but L believe that a good many owners don't bet on their horses. They have seen the glaring crookedness of the * thing, especially if they have hap- pened to be officers of jockey clubs or stewards of various race meets. Personally, I should think a man of Broadhurst’s stamp.would not permit himself to be made a victim of the Jeeches of the turf—although he may wager 2 bit, just to give sest to the race. American racing has often been cailed & purely gambling affair, and I think, before we get through, that we shail see the reason for much of the public opposition to it.” Just ‘then s small man entered the office, and, seeing us, asked for Ma Murchie. His face was pinched and thin. He wore the latest cut of clothes, but was so.very slight that his garment hung loosely on him. One could well imagine that he had tried all sorts of schemes to keep himself down toward the hundred- and-ten-or-twelye-pound mark. He ‘was the very of jockey. He in- troduoced to us as Danny Mo- Gee, and 1 ised at once the ¥ ous _twen! ive-thousand-dollar- :f:nr rider, who had so often suc- cessfully defended the Broadhurst colors. E “Mr. Murchie has gone up to the house,” replied Kennedy to his in- uiry. ‘l%u looked us over a minute. “Friends of his?’ he asked in a con- fidential tone. Kennedy smiled. *Ot Mr. Broadhurst,” he sald quletly. 9 Thert was a noticeable change in 'l mannen: “Just out hers to look the stable aver,” went Kennedy; “s wonder- Bul jlace” : " THE SLEEPMAKER By Arthur B.

Yes; we think so,” assented McGee. t seems strange,” ventured XKen- nedy, “that, with all this care, Lady Lee should not be keeping up to her record.” E McGee glanced at us keenly. “I don’t understand it myself,” he said. I sppose lots of people must think it i§ the fault of the jockey, but I have certainly earned my salary lately with that filly. 1 don’t know what's the matter. ' I've done the best I can, but in spite of it theres something wrong." He spoke with an air of genuine worry, and, although 1 tried hard, 1 must confess that I found it impossi- ble to fathom him. “The filly," he added, “has her regu- lar work-out and thé¢ regular feed, and yet she seems to be all tired out uiost of the time. Even the veteri- naries can’t seem to find out wha®s the matter.” An awkward' silence followed, dur- ing which both Kennedy and myselt cndeavored to conceal our igngrance of horses by saying nothing about them. Finally McGee rose and ex cused himeelf, saying that he would be back soon. There were still a few minutes be- fore Murchie would be likely to re- turn. Without saying a word, Ken- nedy rose and opened the door which led into the stables. Across the lawn in the ccnter we could see a man's figure rapidly retreating through the main eutrance, and, somehow or other, I felt that at the sound of the cpening of our door he hastened his Kennedy walked quickly around the circle of box stalis until he came agamn to Lady Lee. He entered the stall and lcoked the famous racer over carefully. 1 was wondering what, if anything, he expected to find, when, almost before I Knew it, I saw him Jjab a little hypodermic needle into Wer neck and withdraw a few drops of blood. Lady Lee reared and snorted, but Kennedy managed to quiet her. He returned the hypodermic with these fow drops of biood carefully into its case again and we made our way back to the office. A few minutes later the drone of Broadhurst's car told us that Murchie had returned. We resumed the talk about horses, upstairs in Murch®’s own apartment, which consisted of living rooms, a library and bath. It was a luxuriously appointed place, in keeping with the tastes of Its occu- pant. We sat down in the library. I was quite interested in looking about me. For one thing, Murchie's idea of art seemed to be a curious blending of horse and woman. There were pictures of all the string of Broadhurst winners interspersed with Venuses and actresses. On a little table I noticed, a colored photograph in frame. girl. diuin height, with a fine figure, golden hair and deep-blue eyes. Somehow I ;ecnlled that I had seen that face be- ore. looking at it from time to time I was certain of it. Suddenly it flashed over me that the picture had been published in the Star. It was Cecille Safford. I re- membered having read of Murchie's escapades, one of which was his elope- ment with a pretty young stenog- rapher whom he had met at the horse show a couple of years before. The talk ran along about horses t length, oval giit It was of a very beautiful still, but I noticed that Kennedy was | even more interested in Murchie's pictures. now, than in his conversa- tion. 1In the place of honor, over the mantel, hung a portrait, in an arti tic panel, of a slender girl with dark hair and hazel eyes, with a soft, swan-like throat and neck and a somewhat imperious manner of carry- ing her head. I followed Craig's glance across the room. There, in a frame upon the wall ‘In ‘a corner, hung an enlarge- | ment of a group photograph. It was of a middle-aged woman, a little boy and a little girl. Then I remembered the whole story. At the time of his elopment Murchie had a wife living. Since then he had been divorced. Although he had prowised to marry Cecilie when the divorce was obtained, he was now engaged to marry a wealthy girl, Amelie Guernsey. Broadhurst returned shortly for us and we made another tour of the sta. bles, on the outside, including the quarters of the innumerable employes. Finally, at a hint from Kennedy that we had seen enough for the present, Broadhurst motored back to the city with us. That night, instead of going to the laboratory, we walked down Broad- way until ‘'we came to a hotel much trequented by the sporting fraternity. We entered | the restaurant, which was one of the most brilliant in ™~ white-light region, took a seat at a table, and Kennedy proceeded to in- gratiate himself with the waiter, and, finally, with the head walter. Af last, 1 saw why Kennedy was apparently wasting so much time over dinner. “Do you happen to know that girl, Cecllle Safford, that Broadhurst's lr;lndef, Murchie, eloped with?" he asked. The head waiter nodded. “I used to know her,” he replied. “She used to come In here a good deal, but you won't find her {n the Broadway ' places any more these days. She’s more likely to be over on Eighth avenue.” He mentioned the name of a cabaret saloon. Kennedy paid the check and again we started out. We finally entered a place, down in a basement, and once more Kennedy began to quiz tae waiter. This time he had no trouble. Across the room the waiter polnted 40 a girl seated with a young fellow at a round table. 1 could scarcely believe what I saw. The face had the same features as that of the pho: tograph in the oval gilt frame in Murchie's apartment, but it was not the same face. As 1 studied her I could imagine her story without even hearing it. The months of waiting for Murchie to marry her and his callous refusal had been her ruin. Cecilie had learn- ed to drink and from that had gone to drugs. Her mirror must have told her that she was not the same girl whq had eloped with Murchie. Her figure had lost its slim, beautiful line: Her eyes were smaller and her lips were heavy. Her fresh color had disap- peared. She had a . pasty look. ‘Al‘: she had—her auty—had van- shed. Murchie had been divorced and wa: about to marry—but not Cecilie. It was to & young and lovely girl with lsuch a face of innocence as Cecilie had when Murchie had ‘first dictated a letter to her in the .office at the horse show and had fascinateqd her 'with his glittering talk of wealth and ease. The news of his engagement had driven her frantic, | Curiously enough, the young fellow 'with her did not seem to be dissipated in the least.
