Faith—now you mintion ut,” he said slowly, “I belleve I did hear a bit of a pop. Nothing to startle ye, mind—just a quiet little pop, like ye'd be hearin’ when a child burst a paper bag.” Where were you when you heard this pop, a3 you call 1t? “Let me see, now,” he mused. be standin’ right foreninat th' change when I heard ut.” “You didn’t hear more than one?” )“I might have. But, d'ye ses, ut was the sort av nolse that might be comin’ from the uptown traffic, and not at all the noise that would swing round to see what ut was.” ‘How long after hearing ths noise would it be before you became un- consclous?” “Now ye've got me, for ut's a thing ] can't tell ye,” the big fellow said. “I'm told that I was asleep for two hours—but, if Ye ask me, I say ut was a bare flve minutes from hearin’ the pop until I woke up and found meself lyin’ on the sidewalk.” pa ex- $20 he could buy half a dozen lockets of the same kind, and when I turned into the bank he was grinning broad- 1y as he went oft to shoulder his way up the street. I added the locket to my - tissue-wrapped trophies. My next concern was to interview Jaxon and his fiYe men again. Nor- mally they would have left the bank this hour, but they were still hanging round in somse faint hope of cheering news. I collected the six of them in a spare room and questioned them along the mame lines as I had used with McGrath. They all reiter- ated their former statement that there had been no odor, but three of them, including Jaxon, recalled hav- ing heard a faint pop Before dropping Off to sleep, and their descriptions of the noise were, on the whole, fairly close to that given me by the police- man. Four of them, also Including Jaxon, now positively remembered a faint luminosity, and the other two thought they did. ur I now took my exhibits, as th police would call them, and my the- ory up town to a friend of mine who has a great reputation in chemistry and physics, a clever little fellow called Dan Lamont, so well off that he can afford to have a first-class laboratory, and keep a big staff of assistants working on valuable but unremunerative research. He Is a perfect little wizard, and many & “After the noise, did you become consclous of any pecullar odor— even of the slightest?” “No, divil a whiff av any sort,” he #aid positively—then, with a twinkle, “unless maybe what was left behind trom the big cigars av the million- aires. % “That might make your eyes water, but would hardly send you to sleep, said 1. “Before you became uncon- sclous, did you see any haze or mist coming up?” “There was mnothin’ but maybe a kinda blueness in the street—" he began, then broke off: “B’ the holy piper!” he exclaimed. “Come to think av ut, ut was an odd kinda haze, too!—like nothin’ so much as the way the letters on me watch would #how In a dark corner or like wan av ihim old-fashioned matches would be 5f ye was to splt on ut'in the dark— hut more spread about and thinned down." “Ah, phosphorescent®” “I wouldn't be puttin’ a name like that to ut, so I wouldn't,” he said carefully. “If ye understand me, ut was almost too faint to notice. All I #ay is the street looked like ghosts wight—" . “Thank you, McGrath,” I told him. “You've given me just what I want- ed to know." 7 “Is ut a bit av détectin’ you're nfter?™ he asked me. “Falth, Mr. Tioon, ye've got things out av me that zone av thim—polis or private—had the since to remind me av. One of me mates was sayin that there's been some queer on-goin's up at the post of- fice. Have ye heard anythin’' at all «bout ut, Mr. Boon?" 1 had forgotten Dick Schuyler's casual reference to the post office and my interest was reawakened. “Commander Schuyler esald some- thing about it” I said to McGrath. “Was the post offic gasseed and r0bbed, too?" “No. I wouldn't say that. I haven't %ot the rights av ut yet, but ut's Just queer -on-goin's that's rumored. - “Ut's’ a queer affair, so ut is" he went on, “and the more ye think av ut, the queerer ut is. There's me locket, now. D’ye think I can get the polish back on the thing? Not wan bit av ut. Ut's all pitted an’ dirty- 1o0kin'.

I know the store where ut was bought. Let me et the photy av 3 yours.” He Banded over the trink et, and I gave him two $10 bills. He ¥as mightily pleased, ’for with the time I had gone to him to be pulled out when the physics of my work had me bogged. “Hullo, Jimmy!” he id, as soon as he saw me. “What's the trouble this time?

Haven't you heard about the robbery?” “Tll- bite—and then you can say your smart answer,” he grinned. “What robbery?” There are days when Dan d "t see a daily journal, and I guessed from his readiness to chaff that he had not heard about the banks. I told him. As I expected, he at once showed the liveliest interest. “Well, Jimmy!” he exclaimed. “What do you know. about that? Most interesting! Christopher Columbus and the hard-boiled egg! Are you telling me that Wall Street was put to sleep for two hours while & Eang of crooks helped themselves?” “That's just-what I do tell you.” “Phew!” He stood up and stared at me. Then “he tock out his loose change and rattled it in his oupped hll‘nll—.‘- trick .he has ‘when very ex- cite “What makes you think the crooks used gas?’ he demanded.

What makes you 80 keen on the gas idea, anyhow 7" 1 told him about the powdered glass, and showed it to him. Then I brought out the locket and my father's gold coin.

He had It tested. “May be 80, my dear Jimmy—may Dbe 50,” he said absently. “I'll tell you what. I'll analyze this tarnishing. Leave the locket and coin with me. They look to me to be impure alloys of copper—both of them. Most inter- esting!

Oh, some time this afternoon,” he muttered, his gaze fixed on the coin and Jocket. “Gas, eh? Must think about it. Good fellow, Jimmy—to glve me these. A new thing—mighty interesting. Good-bye, old man—- He wrung my hand and made a bee line for his laboratory, with the coin and locket held out in front of him in his cupped palms. I chuckled to think I had made Dan Lamont so in- terested, for 1 knew that the chem- istry side of any Investigations. I wanted to make was in the most skil- ful hands in New York. I had en- listed the services of a powerful ally. “at . The néxt thing I had to do was to got the Sleve back to Long Island and see how Milliken was getting on with the Merlin, but on the way down to the jetty I stopped to look in at the post office. There was & jam about the place, and the counters were crowded up. I wrote the name of the bank on one of my cards under my own name—which {s the same as my fathers—and handed the paste- board to a messenger. “Are you Mr. Boon?' he asked su- “Who s it you want to see? he demanded. “Anybody in authority who has a minute to spare—" “Will Mr. Glover do?” “Fine,” I sald. “Lead the way to Mr. Glover.” =% He conducted me along & passage into a nest of private rooms, and tapped at a door. e ““Wait here,” he said, and went into the room. He was out.in a second. “Mr. Glover will ses you.” A bald-headed man at a desk in the center of the room looked up with an ingratiating smile as I came in, but when he saw me his grin frose, and he rose in angry surprise from his chair, “What trick is this?”’ he demandsd. “You are not Mr. Boon, sir! You are an impostor, sir—an impostor! Let me inform you that I am familiar with the appearance of the president of the National Metallurgical! I am an acquaintance of Mr. Boon!™ “That’s fine,” said 1. “Allow me to introduce to you his son, James Van- dersluyt Boon, whose card you have in your hand. He looked at me suspiciously for a moment, then smoothed down, and ‘held out his hand. I wondered at the change in his reception of me, but next moment it was: explained. “Of course, of course!” he said Theartil; “I might have known!" He waved & hand at the flying-kit I still was wearing. “You are the young conqueror of the air, our modern rus—though I trust not doomed 0 the same fate. I trust not,” sald the pompous “Well, Mr. Boon, and what can o for you?” I told him pretty snappily that I -wanted a line on what had happened in. the. post office that morning, ex- plaining that I was investigating everything that seemed to have any connection with the robbery of the ‘banks.
