The name was Clelle Mendizabal. This odd name had stuck fast in ireg's memory. It was the name #lanca Gulterrez had given him in the 9th street houge. “A family seudonym,” Greg thought, “that {s vade to serve all kinds of purposes.” Following the name came various particulars that Greg had not time declpher.

This was a sad- faced woman carrying a little pack- age upright with care, evidently a delicacy for a patient. She nodded to the maid with r of a frequent vieitor und ued on up the stairs. The incident gave Greg an idea. As she held the door open for him to ass out, he gave the mald a dollar. he accepted it as one who had a Just sense of r own worth.

He mounted deliberately, and passed out ¢ sight around. the bend on the first nding. There were four doors on ¢ landing. They were numbered, but even If they had not been, “first- floor front” was an exact description to any one familiar with New York houses.

He put his bask against the wall. “Keep your hands off me,” he said 2 a dangerous volce. To the doctor he added significantly: “Call them off if you don't want a nasty row in the house.' It worked. The plump doctor qualled at the thought of a row. “Let Lim alone” he muttered, “if he'll go quletly.” Greg strode out of the room and down ‘the stalra as deliberately and «oolly as he had gone up. The three men -pressed close after Lim, longing to throw him headlong, but not dar- ng.

The big stores are open for the Christmas trade. You can get most anything at Macymaker's.” “Hickey, sometimes you display al- most human intelligence. En avant to Macymaker's!” _ Sure enough, in the housefurnish- ing department of that vast emporium Gireg found what he wanted. The salesman wondered perhaps that any cne should pick out a window-clean- «r's ladder for a Christmas present, iut Greg was not.worrying about what the salesman might think. With a couple of sheets of store pa- ver wrapped about it, and tled with twine, the ladder was sufficiently dis- suised so that there was little dan. or 'of the most zealgus policeman’s <usplcfons being aroused by the sizht of it A As hic aui Lichivy- tsd L ou top Coprvight by Geerge H. sald Gre. | “and T1l go.” Doran Company | of the flivver outside, Greg said with a chuckle, “Burglary made easy!” Hickey ‘shivered. on't use such ugly-sounding words!" he begged. They went on. Greg offered Hickey ‘a clgar. “We have time on our hands now.” he, said. “Light up and let tho like a lady.” . The phantasmagoria of Houston street was spread before hem again. Here was Christmas shopping of the humbler sort. End to end the: push- carts extended along the curb, light- ed by smoky kerosene flares and dis- playing an amazing variety of wares, from sets of “genuine {mitation ermine furs” down to apples pickled in brine. -~ The pavement was literally packed, largely by reason of the fat shoppers, who took up the room of three or four. Coming toward them they per- celved a stir of excitement in the throng. A big pollceman was slowly forcing his way through, presumably urging before him some unfortunate they could not see. In the pollce- man's wake was a struggling pro- icession of those wlo were trying to 1Eet 4 look. The quallty of excite- ment {n their faces suggested that the affair was something out of the common. As Greg and Hickey passed abreast of the policeman the crowd opened for a moment, and they had u brief gllmpse of the man he had fu charge. They saw the slight 4nd sagRing fig- ure of a_young man with small fea- tures. His face was greenish: he shambled along with cyes half closed His hat was gone, and to their sur- prise they saw that his clothes were drenched. They were near the river. “A would-be sulclde” said Greg. “Poor devil!" An odd little grunt Hickey. and he brought the a stop with a jerk. “What's up?” asked “That — that face. Hickey. “What of it “I've been looking for it for three days by your orders. That's the fel- Jow with the little black mustache who hired me on the pier that night.” Greg was effectually galvanized into action. _Slipping out of his seat, he said: “Turn the first corner to the right and walt for me in the side street. I'll look after him. He doesn't know me." Greg ran down the roadway until he got in advance of the policeman; then, forcing his way through the crowd, who gave way before his de- termined air, he tronted the officer. “Beg_ypardon, officer. I think I know this man. What's he done?” Greg's good clothes and assured alr were not without their effect. The policeman was disposed to be com- plaisant. “Attempted suicide. Jumnp- ed off a Houston street ferry, he did. A deckhand pulled him out”’ The crowd, delighted to receive ex- act information as to the affair, walt- vd -open-mouthed for more.

SEATTLE, Wasi | The cruiser Seattle, flagship of the [Tnited States fleet, grounded on a sand spit off Marrow Stone point, Pu- get sound, in a dense fog, but Wwas pulled off later and proceeded to the Puget Sound navy yard at Bre- merton. The Seattle was en route for Astoria, Ore., to Bremerton with Admiral H. E. Coontz, commander of the United States fleet, and Rear Ad- miral L. E. Gregory, chief of the na- al bureau of yards and docks, aboard. The commander notified the navy yard by wireless that it would not be necessary for the vessel to go im- medfately into dry dock. This was taken to indicate that the cruiser's hull was not damaged to any great extent. , August 23, - ——— RECEIVER APPOINTED . FOR $5,000,000 FIRM Pennsylvania Corporation Ac- cused of Squandering Money on Bales. By the Associated Press. HOLLIDAYSBURG, —The Blair county pointed W. M. C. e of the Confederated Home Abattoirs’ Corporation. The receiver was ap- pointed on a petition by stockhold- ers, who alleged that the assets of the corporation were squandered by the officers and that $330,000 were paid out to salesmen for promoting sales. The corporation has a meat pack- ing house at Altoona, Pa. with branches at Allentown and York, Pa. and Bridgeport. Conn. It was capi- talized at $5,000:000. The bureau of securities, Pennsyl- vania state department of banking, last week ordered the abattoirs' cor- poration to cease selling stock in Pennsylvania until examination of its affairs was completed and until it had become fully qualified and registered under the laws of this state. The bureau sald the concern had sold more than $800,000 worth of stock in Pennsylvania. —_— 1 MERICAN PAYS RECORD t PRICE FOR A REYNOLDS lPainting, “Young Fortuune Teller,” Considered One of Britain’s Choicest Art Treasures.
