If you re- member, Capt. Shannon, this god or ¢ | mumbo-jumbo or whatever he is, is supported on each side by a bronze animal that looks something between a cat and a panther. I'd often wondered whether they were there as ornaments or whether they had any special use. This afternoon I gave one an extra strong tug to see if it was firmly fixed, and, to my surprise, it began to turn by itself with a noise that suggested that I'd started some sort of clock- work machinery on a grand scale. Nothing happened, however, ex- cept that the cat turned half right—she had previously been facing squarely into the room. I tried the er cat in the same way and exactly the same thing happened. “Whether I touched a spring or whether that ferk sets the machinery moving, I don't know. At any rate, the | cat on the left of the figure turned half left; and the moment it mm an ex- trnordlnury thing happe: ‘The up- per part of the statue has a starved H | look about the ribs; all the bones show | —it looks as though they had been molded on over the figure. The mo- ment the cat -wgeped the chest of the idol opened in the center like double doors. I got up on to the pedestal and put my lamp inside, and I swear to you the body is half filled with stones as big as, and Dbigger than, any of these! I took a handful and put them | in my pocket and came straight away to see you. I didn’t dare to telephone | for fear somebody would cut in and| {hear more than I wanted them to | know.” Dick was examining the diamonds Each bore a little red seal that showed the place of its origin “Malpas must have had a good haul,” sald !uel “but what I can't under. -u:':‘d 1s why he didn't get rid of this stu “I think I can explain that" said chk. “There's been a prouy bad in the last few in the dia- mm trade; the market is so loaded | with stones that prices are down to| their minimum. That kind of slump often occurs in diamonds. His supply | was greater than his opportunities for | disposal. There is another thing to be | s | remembered—diamonds are an invest- | ment and the most portable form of wealth. A man who contemplated a hurried retirement from could have no better form of swag— he could carry a couple of millions in a ’| handbag. Have you closed the door of | the idol * %t | Steel nodded. “Fortunately, there was nobody in the room but myself at the time. The inspector was on the landing outside, talking to the two men. “1 pushed the cats back in their po- sitions and the doors elosed.” Shannon picked up the diamonds and, pouring them into a prosaic sugar- bowl, locked the vessel away in his safe. “The other stones must be removed to-night,” he said. put them in & bag and take every stone to the Yard" Audrey had been a silent and amazed j audience and Shannon had almost for- gotten that she was present. “You will come along, won't yeu, Audrey? You'd like 1o see what a Hion pounds’ worth of .diamonds looks k2" She stood undecided. “I don’t know that I want to see that room again,” she said, “but curiosity is one of my weaknesses." Giving strict instructions to his serv- ant to remain in the sitting room and not to move until he returned, Dick plioted his y downstairs and, call- ing a taxi from the rank in the mid-| dle of the road, entered it with lh‘ girl and his assistant.
