THE EVIL SHEPHERD By E. Phillips Oppenheim. (Copyright. 1983, by Littls, Brewn & Os.) (Continued from Yesterday’'s Star.) “I am going to leave you, my hon- ored guests from The Sanctuary,” he sald, with a faint smile, “to your- selves for a short time. In the room to vour left supper is being served. In front is the dancing gallery. To the right, as you see, is the lounge leading into the winter garden. The gymnasium s closed until midnight. Any other part of the place please explore at vour leisure, but I am go- ing to ask you one thing: 1 want you to meet me In a room, which T will 8how you, at & quarter to 12.” He led them down one of the cor- ridors which opened from the hall Before the first door on the Tight a man-servant was standing as though on sentry duty. Sir Timothy tapped the panel of the door with his fore- fnger. “This is my sanctum.” nounced “l allow no one in here without special permission. 1 find it ugeful to have a place to which one can come and rest quite quietly some- times. Willlams here has no other duty except to guard the entrance. Williams, you will allow this gentle- man and these two ladies to pass in at a quarter to 1 The man look ingly. 6 else” “No one, under any pretext.’ Timothy hurried back to the hall and the others followed him in more leisurely fashion They were all three full of curiosity. “I never dreamed.” Margaret de- clared as she looked around her, “that I should ever find myself inside this house. It has always seemed to me like one great Bluebeard's cham- ber. If ever my father spoke of it at all, it was as of a place which he intended to convert into a sort of miniature hell. Sir Timoth to them he an- at them search- tainly, sir,” he said. “No one ¥ leaned back to speak as they passed. “You will find « friend over there, Ledsam,” he said. Wilmore turned around and faced them. The two men exchanged some- What surprised greetinge. “No idea that 1 was coming until this afternoon,” Wilmore explained. “I got my card at 5 o'clock- with a note from Sir Timothy's secretary. I am racking my brains to imagine what it can mean.” “We're all a little addled,” Francis confessed. “Come and’join our tour of exploration. You know Lady Cyn- thia Let me present you to Mrs. Hil- diteh.” The Introduction was effected_and they all strolled on together. Mar- garet and Lady Cynthia led the way into the winter garden. a palace of glass, tall ms. banks of exotics, flowering shrubs of every description and a fountaln with wonderfully carved water nyinphs, brought with its basin from itzly. Hidden In the foliage, a small orchestra was play- ing very softly. The atmosphere of the place was languorous and deli- clous. “Leave us liere,” Margaret insisted, with a little exclamation of content. “Nelther Cynthia nor I want to go any further. Come back and fetch us’in time for our apponitment.” The two men wandered off place was Indecd 2 marvel of archi- técture, a country house, of which only the shell remained, modernized and made wonderful by the genius of a @reat architect. The first room which entered when they left the winte rden was as large as a small restaurant, paneled in cream «olo] with a marvelous ceiling. There were tables of varlous sizes lald for supper. rows of champagne bottles in ice buckets and servants eagerly waiting for orders. Already a sprinkling of the guests had found their way here. The two men cross- ed the floor to the cocktall bar in the far corner, behind which a fa- miliar face grinned at them. It was Jimmy, the bartender from Soto's, Wwho stood there with a wonderful array of bottles on a walnut table. “If it were not a perfectly fatuous uestion, I should ask what you were oing here, Jimmy?" Francis remarked. “I always come for Sir Timothy's big parties, sir,” Jimmy explained. “Your first visit, isn't jt, sir? Ty first incis assented. nd mine,” his companion echoed. “What can 1 have the pleasure of making for you, sir?” the man in- quired. “A difficult question,” Francis ad- mitted. “It is barely an hour and a half since we finished dinner. On the other hand, we are certainly go- ing to have some supper some time or_other.” Jimmy nodded understandingly. “Leave it to me, si he begged. He served them with a foaming white concoction in tall glasses. A genuine lime bobbed up and down in the liquid. * “Sir Timothy has the limes sent over from his own estate in South America,” Jimmy announced. “You will find some things in that drink You don’t often taste.”" The two men sipped their beverage and pronounced it delightful. Jimmy leaned a little across the table. “A big thing on tonight, isn’t there, sir?" he asked cautjously. “Ts there?" Francis replied. mean. Jimmy motioned toward the open window, close to which the river was flowing by. “You going down, sir?" Francis shook his head dubiously. “Where to?" The bartender looked with narrow- ed eyes from one to the other of the two men. Then he suddenly froze up. ‘Wilmore leaned a little further over the impromptu counter. “Jimmy.” he asked, “what goes on here besides dancing and boxing and gambling?" “I never heard of any gambling,” Jimmy answered, shaking his head. “Sir "Timothy doesn't care about cards being played here at all.” “What is the principal entertain- ment, then?’ Francis demanded. “The boxing?” The bartender shook his head. “No one understands very much about this house, sir,” he sald, “ex- cept that it offers the most wonder- ful entertainment in Europe. That is for the guests to find out, though. We servants have to attend to our duties. WIIl you let me mix you another drink, sir?’ “No, thanks' Francis answered. “The last was too good to spoil. But you haven't answered my question, Jimmy. What did you mean when you asked if we were going down?” Jimmy's face had become wooden. “I meant nothing, sir,” he said. “Sorry I spoke.” The two men turned aw They recognized many acquaintances in the supper room and in the long gallery beyond, ‘where many couples were dancing now to the music of a won derful orchestra. By slow stages they made thelr way back to the winter garden, where Lady Cynthia and Margaret were still lost in ad- miration of their surroundings. They all walked the whole length of the place. Beyond, down a flight of stone steps, was a short paved way to the river. A large electric launch was moored at the quay. The grounds butside were dimly illuminated with cunningly hidden electric lights shining through purple-colored globes Into the cloudy darkness. In the background, enveloping the whole of the house and reaching to the river on either wide, the great wall loomed up, unlit, menacing almost in its sug- gestions. A couple of loiterers stood within a few yards of them, looking &t the launch. “There she is, ready for her errand, whatever it may be.” one said to the other curiously. ‘'We couldn't play the stowaway, I suppose, could we?”’ ‘Dicky Bell did that once” the other answered. “Sir Timothy has ealy one way with intruders. He was The “You . l thrown into the river and jolly nearly drowned.” \oThe tivo men passed out of hear- ng. “I wonder what part the launch plays In the night's entertainment,” Wiimore observed. Francis shrugged his shoulders. “I have given up wondering,” he sald. “Margaret, do you hear that music?” She laughed. “Are we really to dance?she mur- mured. “Do_you want to make a girl of me again?” “Well, T shouldn't be a magiclan, should 1?” he answered. They passed into the ballroom and danced for some time. The music was seductive and perfect, without any of the blatant notes of too many of the popular orchestras. The floor seemed to sway under their feet. “This {s & new joy come back Into life!” "Margaret exclaimed as they rested for a moment. “The first of many, her. They 8tood in the archway between the winter garden and the dancing gallery, from which they could com- mand 4 view of the pas#sing crowd Francis scanned the faces of the men and women with intense interest. Many of them were known to him by sight, others were stramgers. There was & judge, a cabinet minister, va- rious members of the aristocracy, a sprinkling from the foreign legations, and, although the stage was not largely represented, there were one or two well known actors. The Ruests seemed to belong to no univer- sal socfal order, but to Francis, watching them aimost eagerly, they all seemed to have something of the same expression, the same slight air of weariness, of restless and unsatis- fied desires “I can't believe that the place s real, or that these people we see are not ' supers,” Margaret whispered. every moment that a clock rike and that it will all fade “I'm afrald I'm too material for such imaginings,” Francls replied, “but there is a quaintly artificial air about it all. We must go and look for Wilmore and Lady Cynthia.” They turned back into the ener- vating atmosphere of the winter gar- den, and came suddenly face to face with Sir Timothy, who had escorted a little party of his guests to see the fountain, and was now returning alone. “You have been dancing. I am glad to see,” the latter observed. "I trust that you are amusing yourselves®’ “Excellently, thank you.” Francis he assured “And o far.” Sir Timothy went on, with a faint smile, “you find my en- tertainment normal? You have no question yet which you would like to ask?” “Only one—what do you do with your launch up the river on moonless nights, Sir Timothy?” Sir Timothy's momentary silence was full of ominous. significance. “Mr. Ledsam.” he sald, after a brief pause. “T have given you almost carte blanche to explore my domains here. Concerning the launch, however, T think that you had better ask no G tions at present.” You are using it tonight?” Franels ‘Will you come and turesome guest?” “With great the prompt reply. Sir Timothy glanced at his watch. “That.” he said, “is one of the mat- ters of which we will speak at a quarter to twelve. Meanwhile, me show you something. It see, my ven- vleasure,” w may jamuse you as it has done me.” The three moved back toward one of the arched openings which led into the ballroom. “Observe, if you please,” their host continued, “the third couple who pass us. The girl is wearing green—the very little that she does wear. Watch the man, and see if he reminds you of any one.” Francis did as he was bidden. The girl was a well-known member of the chorus of one of the princlpal musical comedies, and she seemed to be thoroughly enjoying both the dance vand her partner. The latter appeared to be of a somewhat ordi- nary type, sallow with rather puffy cheeks, and eyes almost unnaturally dark. “He danced vigorously and he talked all the time. Something about him was vaguely familiar to Francis, but he failed to place him. “Notwithstanding all my precau- tions.” Sir Timothy continued, “there, fondly believing himself to be un- noticed, is an emissary of Scotland Yard. Really, of all the obvious, the dry-as-dust, hunt-your-criminal-by- rule-of-three kind of people I ever met, the class of detective to which this man belongs can produce the most blatant exn.mple‘ “What are you going to do about him?” Frances uk{d. . Sir Timothy shrugged his shoulders. “I have not yet made up my mind,” he sald. “I happen to know that he has been laying his plans for weeks to get here, frequenting Soto's and other restaurants, and scraping ac- qualntances with some of my friends. The Duke of Tadchester brought him —won a few hundreds from him at baccarat, 1 suppose. His grace will pever again find these doors open to A Francis' attention had wandered. He was gazing at the man whom Sir Timothy had pointed out. “You still do not fully recognize our friend,” the latter observed care- lessly. ‘He calls himself Manuel Loito, and he professes to be a Cuban. HIs real name I understood, lwh;q ¥you introduced us, to be Shop- and.” “Great heavens, so it is!” Francis exclaimed. “Let us leave him to his precarious pleasures.” Sir Timothy suggested. am free for a few moments. We will wander round together.” They found Lady Cynthia and Wil- more, and looked in at the supper room, where people were waiting now for tables, a babel of sound and galety. The grounds and winter garden were crowded. Thelr gulde led the way to a large apartment on the other side of the hall, from which the sound of music was proceeding. “My theater,” he said. what s going on.” They passed inside. There was a small stage with steps leading down to the floor, easy chairs and round tables everywhere, and walters serv- ing refreshments.' A girl was danc- NG o), TImothy watched her ap- ngly.

Every man or woman who is asked to perform, has a credit at Cartier's for a hundred guineas. I pay no fees. They select some little keepsake.' Margaret laughed softly. “No_wonder they call this place a sort of Arablan Nights!' she declared. (Continued in Tomorrow's Star.) Jet | | | | ! __THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.
