S. Fletcher Newspaper Alllance and Metropolitan Newscaper Service. SYNOPSIS. Col. Engleden, formerly the governor ©of Southmoor prison. had deen murdered. A laborer reports having seen three men on the night of the murder close to the spot whers the dodv was found. Sefton Enoleden, his nephew, with the aid of Johnson, his law clerk, makes an investi- wation It is learned that during the colonel’s time at Southmoor two prison- ers, Snelling and Hardle, escaped and no trace was ever found of them. It ix also learned that just befove his death the colonel had asked the prison authorities to tell him whether any of the warders who twere on his staff are still at the prison. Johnson believes that the colonel had come across the escaped conviets and that it was they who killed him, Young [Engleden engages a former prison warder, Millwater, to aid in the investigation. Within a few hours he is wmurdered. Maliison, the superintendent of police, learns that bank notes that were known 1o have been in the colonel's possession have been changed dv a soldier from a nearby barracks. When the soldier and his comrade are arrested they admit hav- ing robdbed the colomel's dodv, but deny any knowledge of the muvder. Thev say that they came upon two men bending over the body and frightened them away. Meanwhile, Capt. Shoreham of South- mocr prison arrives with a description of the escaped conmvicts. Snelling, he savs, had a Dbirthmark on his right wrist, Engleden recalls that Sanderson, whose estate the. colonel's bodw was found, wears a wide steel bracelet on his right wrist and the question arises, Is Sanderson Snelling’ Johnson thinks that he 1s and that his dutler, Hewitt, is really Hardle. Maj. Anstie of the Home Office now enters the case. He had re- ceived a letter from the colonel shortly before his death saving that he had located all the persons concerned in the orison escape and asking for assistance. Johnason ineists that they must prove the ftdentity of the men known as Sanderson and Hewitt. When Maliison protests, he savs that they mav already have fled and that mo more time must be wasted. Inquiry reveals that ncither Senderson mor Hardie is to be found Johnson questions John Oates, Sanderson’s chauf- feur, to the latter's movements. It wa; les who found the colow=". vody. FIFTEENTH INSTALLMENT. ELL it's this, then,” con- tinued Sanderson’s chauf- feur, John Oates. “Not much, you'll be saying, but, anyhow, it’s all there is to tell. That night—the night, you understand, before I found the old gen- tleman in the river—Sanderson sent me a message while he was at dinner. I was to have one of the cars—he has three—round at the front door at 9:30 sharp. I took the Daimler saloon round. He came out by himself and told me to drive into Harlington and to go along Coverdale road there till he stopped me—" ‘Whereabouts is Coverdale road?” inquired Johneon. “It's a long road that runs through the working-class part of the town— amongst the manufactories and worke ings,” replied John. And, as a matter of fact,” remarked James, “though it mayn't have any- thing to do with it, it's at the back of the plece of waste ground where that man Millwaters was murdered.” “That's it,” agreed Jochn. “Well, I drove him In as he ordered and went slowly along Coverdale road, wonder- g what he wanted there. We fv' about half way along it when he pulled me up. He got out, told me to turn the car around and to wait, and walked on along the road. As I turned the car I saw him go round the corner into a side street——" “What street?” asked Johnson. “Acacia street—a street of workmen’s dwellings. Of course, I couldn't see where he went after he turned the corner. I was 30 or 40 yards away from the entrance to the street. He was away between a quarter of an hour and 20 minutes. Then he came back witl a man. They got into the car and— “Stop a bit!" interrupted Johnson. “Describe the man.” “All I can say about him is that he was a tall chap, broadly built. It was getting darkish then, and that's a poorly lighted district. Besides that, Sander- son bundled him into the car as if he were in a hurry. Then he told me to drive home. We went back the same way, of course. But when we'd nearly fin to the house Sanderson pulled me up. e and the man got out—the man at once walked atvay down a side path that leads to the ruins near the river. Sanderson stayed behind & minute to tell me to bring -the car round to the {ront door again at 12 o'clock sharp; then he went after the other man, and I took the car to the garage, at the other side of the grounds.” “What time, exactly, would that be, now?” asked Johnson. “Be as particu- lar as you can.” John Oates considered the question in silence.

Engleden looked up from the table at which he and the others weré seated. “Any news?” he asked. “None!” replied Mallison. ‘'m licked by the whole thing! We've made every possible anixlry during the last two hours, and I can't get the least scrap of information about either Sanderson or Hewitt. Not the least! They might have melted into thin airt” “When did they melt?” asked John- son, dryly. “They were substantial enough at a quarter to 4 o'elock, for I saw 'em with my 6wn eyes, one on the bem:th and the other in the well of the court.” “But that's just it!"” exclaimed Malli- son. saw them, too—beth! Just before’ Maj. ‘ Anstie ‘came up-to speak to me. What's amazing is that several other pzople I've spoken to saw them, at the same time. After that—from then, when people began going out— nobody seems to have seen a vestige of either. Disapepared—completely!" “They must have gone quietly out, got into Sanderson’s car, and gone off,” said Engleden. “Unnoticed!” “No!” said Mallison. “Sanderson has three cars. No car of his has been out of his garage this afternon, Mrs, Sanderson when she left had & hired car from Harlington. I've found out about her. She left Harlington by the South exgrcu at half-past 7 this morning, for London—she'd be there by noon. If Sanderson and Hewitt left the town hall by any vehicle it wasn't by any car or cab hired in town—I've ascertained that. But—nobody _ever saw them legve the town halll There are three doors, and only three, by which they could have left. Two are open to the public; one is the mag- istrates’ private door. There was & | policeman at each door. I've spoken to all three policemen—none of the three can remember that he saw either Sanderson or Hewitt leave.” “Remember?” sald Shoreham. “Pos- sibly. But that's a matter of memory. They mean they can't positively say they noticed Hewitt or Sanderson.” “No—I'm sure they mean what they say. Sanderson, of course, is known to everybody; so, too, is Hewitt, If any of my men had seen them leave—" “If nobody saw them leave,™ re- marked Engleden, “they must be there still, Mallison! Hiding, perhaps, until night comes on.” “No, sir-~I thought of that. I've had the whole place searched from top to bottom. It is a place in which it wouid be easy to hide, certainly, full enough of queer nooks and corners, but there's nobody in it now.” Maj. Anstie, who had been listening with an amused smile, looked up from the papers on the table. < “I think the solution of this myster; should be found pretty easily,” he said. “I suppose Mr. Sanderson remained I the magistrates’ room for some time after the adjournment and left when the crowd had cleared and the police- men had left the doors, That, surely, ” “No, sir!” sald Mallison, firmly. “That occun'e;l! wwme. too. m;.a:trxn':: rsonaily spoken to every zzeho was on the bench. Sanderson never went into the magistrates' room after the adjournment. He was last seen standing at the end of the bench, talking to Col. Waggener—the colonel says he left him there. Hewitt was in the court, just below his master. After that, not a trace of either!"” “If they're not anywhere in that town hall, Mallison, they got out of it,” declared Engleden. “And once out they must have gone somewhere—that's flat! ‘What about the station?” ‘Never been there,” r':rned Mallison, wearily. “Of course, I telephoned there at _once., I've tried everywhere—every garage, cab proprie.or, livery stable in the place. The long and short of it Is, they've made & most extraordinary dis- n}epuunce. and there isn't a trace of them!” “What you really mean is that you haven't come across a trace of them,” said Engleden. “There must be a trace somewhere. A couple of substantially built men don’t vanish as if they were morning mists!” (To be continued.) Serious Plays by Puppets. ‘The puppet show is being taken more _ serjously than ever before and there are some who contend that it will soon have more general re ition than ever. The puppet show v for hundreds of years gnd recently the standard has been raised by the forma~ tion of an organization of puppet show tors from six or eight countries of ope who met in Paris and gave a series of shows which attracted spread attention o to their superior racter. The Theater of Marionettes of Stuttgart gave a performance of “The Life and End of the Illus- trious Dr. Faust” which was a remark- ably finished performance. There were several other performances by puppet people from parts of Europe,
