A key wasn't any good to- night—the place wasn't locked only by a key, it was time-locked by the ti He ‘snatched up the little book and consulted it-hurriedly. It would be low tide tomorrow morning at a quarter past 3. Well, tomor- row morning, then, since he couldn’t have a look at the place tonight. He could well afford the time now! And meanwhile with the key gone, the old maniac couldn't do anything—except raise an infernal row, and become even a little more maniacal, if that were possible! Too bad! But then, the poor old man probably wouldn't live very long anyhow! And then, be- sides, quite apart from the tide to- night, there was Runnells, who— He swept the articles from the table suddenly back into his pockets. Where got there now—and, incidentally Run- nells, where the devil have you been all this time?” unnells was swabbing at his brow. t—it knocked me,flat, that did,” he said_with a sudden, wild rush of words; “but it ain't any worse than what's happened up there. Hell's broke loose—just hell—that's what! The old bird’s gone and done it. Shot himself, he has.” Capt. Francis Newcombe's hand reached out and closed in a quick, tight grip on the other’s shoulder. “Come out of here!” he said abrupt- 1. He led Runnells odt beyond the overhang of the veranda, and in the hetter light stared into the man's face. “Now, then, what's this you say?

And now frowned in im- patient irritation as he made his way along the veranda of the boathouse and down to the shore. Confound Runnells, anyway! Where was he? It was already beginning to show color in the east, and the darkness was giv- ing away to a gray, shadowy half- light. In another quarter of an hour the dawn would hfi\'a broken. There as no time to spare! wH. stood for a moment staring toward the fringe of trees that hid the path to the house. There was still no sign of Runnells. man’s tardiness, he turned abruptly and began to make his way in under the boathouse. At the spot where Paul Cremarre’s body lay the slope of the shore was very gentle and the incoming tide would, therefore, cover the ground more rapidly. He had for gotten that. Paul Cremarre had only been four or five yards away frem ‘what was then the water's edge when he had left him, and unless he wanted to find the body floating around now he had better—— He halted short in his tracks, but close to the water now. His heart had stopped. What was that? In- voluntarily now he staggered back a - pace. It wasn't light enough to see —it was only light enough to see shadowy things, things that sud- denly moved in the gloom before him, things that, from the water, waved sinuously in the air—like slimy, strous, -like tentacles — that reached out nnd crept _and wiggled upon the shore itself. The place was alive with them, swarming with the They were tentacles! They were feel ing out, feeling out everywhere, and— God, were. they fegling out for him! backward a8 a light breath of air seemed to have fanned his cheek. He heard a faint pat upon the earth as of something soft striking there; he saw a slither- ing thing, like a reptile in shape and movement, swaying this way and that as though in search of something upon the spot where he had stood. Kc felt his face blanch. He drew k still further. A dark blotch lay nnr the water’s edge—that was Paul Cremarre’s body. And now one of those sinuous, creeping tentacles, a &ray, vhmu. clutching arm, fell athwart the body—and the body seem- ed to move—slowly—jerkily as umu:h it m‘:hd itself to escape from some foul and loathsome touch—toward the ‘water. Capt. Francis Newcombe gazed now, a fl.leinldon of horror seizing upon him. Two curious spots showed out there in the water. Not lights—they weren't _lights—but they were in a sense luminous. They seemed to stare, full of insatiable lust, gibbaus, protuberant from out of the mist of that waving, feeling, slithering forest of tentacle arms. He swept his hand across his eyes. ‘Was he mad? Was this some ugly fantasy that he was dreaming—and that in his sleep was_making his blood run cold? Look! Look! Those two luminous spots were coming near- er and nearer—eyes, baleful, hungry— eyes, that's what they were! They were coming closer to the shore—to the body of Paul Cremarre. A drip- ping tentacle, waving in the air, swayed forward and dropped and curl- ed and fastened around the body— that was the second one there, It was too light now! The sight was horror—but the fascination of horror held him motionless. There ‘was no head to the thing, just a mon- strous, formless continuation of ab- horrent bulk from which were thrust out those huge, repulsive tentacles— from which was thrust out another now to fasten itgelf, for purchase, upon one of the small, outer concrete plers that rose from tho deeper water beyond. And again the body of Paul Cre- marre moved. And there was a sound. The gurgling of water. It had a beak like a parrot's beak, and the mandiblés opened now—wide apart—to uncover a cavernous mouth. And the eyes and the tentacles of the thing began to retreat from the shore. The gurgle of water again. A white shirt sleeve showed for an instant—and was gone. A splashing. A commotion. ‘A owirl. An eddy. Then in the shadowy light a placid surface, the looming central pler of the boathouse, the little plers, roof above—the commonplace, A voice spoke at his side—Run- mells’: “Where's Paul Cremarre?” Capt, Francis Newcombe's handker- chief, with apparent nonchalance, went to his face. It wiped away beads of sweat, “I don’t know what you'd ecall the thing,” he said casually. The scien- tists seem to refer to the species under a variety of names—you may take your choice, Runnells, between glulpe, devilfish and octopus. It's a it of an unpleasant specimen what- ever name you choose. It's gone mow—and so has Paul Cremarre.” “An _octopus!” Runnells stared through the dim light toward the water. “You mean it—it got Paul?” “Yes,” sald Capt. Francis New- combe. He returned the handkerchief to his pocket. “Gawd!” saild Runnells in a shaky whisper. *“An octopus! 1 know what that is. The thing’'s got suckers that would tear the flesh off you. That's where those marks on Paul's face must have come from. He must have had a fight with it before we found me!u," sald Capt. Francis New- “Tell your story!” ordered Capt. Francis Newcombe shortly. “Well, when I went up there from here,” said Runnells, “I saw the house all lit up and the blacks all running around and the whole plac humming. And they spotted m some of the servants did, and all began talking at once about the old bird having shot himself, and they seemed to take it for granted that I knew, too—d'ye twig?—that I'd been in the house, of course, and had got up and dressed, having heard the The only play I had was to keep my mouth shut and let ‘em think so—and listen to them. It seems, as near as they knew, that his nibs had been asleep, and suddenly wakes up and goes blind off his top and runs upstairs with a revolver and goes to Locke’s room and opens the door and begins shooting, and all the time he's screaming out at the top of his lungs, ‘You're one of them, you're one of them; but I'll kill you before you open it Locke must have had his nerve with him. Anyway, he jumped out of bed and tried to get the revolver away from the old_fool. By this time the whole house was up, and some of the black servants took a hand by trying to collar his nibs, but Marlin breaks away from them somehow and runs for the stairs like a mad bull. He must have trip- ped going down, or knocked his arm, or something, anyway his revolver goes off and when they got to him he was at the bottom of the stairs with a hole in his head.” Runnells paused for a moment, but, eliciting no comment, went on agaim ‘“Well, while I was getting all this informa- tion that I was supposed to know, Locke comes out on the veranda and spots me. ‘I've just been to your room, Runnells,’ he says. ‘Do you know where Capt. Newcombe is?’ And I says, ‘No, sir, I don't; leastways,' I says, ‘I've been too excited to notice.” ‘Then he says I'd better try and find you, and that gave me the first chance to get away and cop these spades. I sneaked around through the woods at the back of the house with them.” Cnp!‘ Pnncl- Newcombe lighted a “Snenk back with them then, the nme wny " he said calmly. o " said Runnells. “Now said Capt. Francis New- combe, nd you haven't been able to find m “Right!” said Runnells again, and started off at a run. Capt. Francis Newcombe began to walk leisurely across the beach toward the path leading to the house. He puffed leisurely and with im- mense content at his cigarette. In the light of certain knowledge pos- sessed by himself alone the whole thing was as clear as daylight. The old maniac had wakened up, and in some way had discovered for the first time that his key and book were gone—that had set him off. It was rather rough on Locke to have been selected as the thief! But there was no accounting for what a lunatic would do! He was chuckling to himself now. An explanation of his absence from the house at this hour? It was too simple! Polly would substantate it. Polly's scruples about keeping silent were now useless—to him! He had thought the old madman must have telephoned from the boathouse. He got up and dressed, and gone down z See—and, of course, had seen noth- H- flicked his cln.rett. away. now he laughed—laughed with lho same evil joy, the same savage tri. umph, but magnified a hundredfold now, with which he had laughed a little while ago in the boathouse back there. Only the laughter was silent now—it was the soul that rocked with mirth, The gods ere very good! The black of the night had brought a dawn of incomparable radiance! That was poetic! , hal Well, why not poetry? He was In exquisite humor. It was like wine in his head—that, too, was poetry, wasn't it?>—somebody had said it was—or something like it. Nor God, nor the devil could stay him now: He had only to be circumspect in the house of death—and help him- self. Almost poetry again! Excellent! The old fool dead! Even the trouble and annoyance of staging an accident was now removed. The old fool— dead—with his secret. They would hunt a long time—and it would for- ever be a secret. Except to Shadow Varne! Howard Locke stood leaning with his shoulders against one of the veranda pillars. Behind him, in the house, he was consclous of a_sort of hushed commotion. Out on the lawn in front of him little groups of ne- groes stood staring at the house with strained, uplifted faces, or moved ucross his line of vision In frightened, pathetically humorous efforts to keep an unobtrusive silence—walking on tiptoes in their bare feet on the vel- vet lawn.

He was dazed because even yet it seemed impossible to grasp the fact that so sorrowful, and dire, and unrecallable a tragedy was an actual, immutable, existent truth. It was rot that Mr. Marlin in a sudden paroxysm of demented frenzy should have done what he had—even to the extent that the old man’s attack should have been directed against his, Locke's, per- son. He quite understood that. In the aquarium, only a few hours be- fore, the old man used identically the same words that he had shouted as he had burst in the bedroom door and begun firing wildly: “You are one tnem! * ¢ ¢ You are on of them And then, apart from what had trans- pired in the aquarium, there had been the shock of the attack on the path aimost immediately afterward. The old man had not lost his money, hut he had gone back to the house—he, Locke, had seen that, too—and, instead of sleeping, these things had probab- Iy preyed and preyed upon his mind until he had lost the little reason that had been left to him and a homicidal mania had developed.

It was not this phase, so logically explainable, of what had happened that affected him still in that dazed, numbed way—it was the fact, 0 much harder to un- derstand, that quick and sudden, in the passing of a moment, old Mr. Marlin was gone. He straightened up a little, easing the position of his shoulders against the pillar. On theé other hand, from an entirely different aspect, that ot the consequences as applied to his own course of action, his mind had been clear, irrevocable, settied in its purpose almost from the instant that —first to reach the old madman's side—he had found Mr, Marlin dead. It was the end! He was waiting now for Capt.

WANTS NO GIRLS IN OFFICE Business Man Says They Keep Young Men from Opportunities. From the Vancouyer Star. The presence of young women in business was condemned from several standpoints, chiefly from that of im- perialist interests, by Sir Abe Bafley in a recent speech at the biennial con- ference of the British Empire Service League in London. Sir Abe Balley asked why British people were not holding their own in South Africa, and, answering his own question, said: “I have come to the conclusion that through girls and young women occu- pying places in business, our young men are not equipped as they were for the battle of life, though they still have to provide the home. When I worked in the city of London—I started there at 14 years of age— there were no girls and young women going to the offices./ They were all young men.” When asked afterward by a press representative to elaborate his Views, Sir Abe said: “I am all against girls and young women going out to business. I have not a girl working in my office. I never had one and I never shall.” “Why do you object to women go- ing out to work?” he was asked. “T object,” he replied, ‘‘because they are a handicap to our young men. Girls accept jobs at or three- quarters the proper rate of pay, and 80 keep men out of work. This means that our boys and youths do not get the training they need, yet' we expect them to fight the battle n! life and do well.” “What do you suggest girls and women should do, assuming that they leave business alone?” Sir Abe Bailey shrugged his shoul- ders. “That is their affair, With all these women in business—and their number seems to be increasing—the natural tendency is for unemployment among men to increase. That is all Why. when I started work as a boy with a firm of merchants in Cannon street there was not a single girl in the place. That is as it should be, and therefore I refuse to employ women in my own office.” Busses vs. Trains. "mm the Philadelphia Ledger. Railroad spokesmen say that the passenger earnings of the roads will be $50,000,000 less in 1927 than in 1926. These revenues will be smaller than for any year since 1912. Sleep- ing car and parlor car earnings are be- ginning to decline, but the greatest loss results from the falling off in day coach riders. In other words, the mo- tor car operating on the concrete high- ways 1a crippling passenger trains operated on railways.
