Tho Ul Chapter Six DANGEROUS QUECT | 8 gealmilchlabd SERGEANT MUL- VEY jerked his hand toward the telephone instrument. “Why don’t you do what you'd do in a story?” he inquired with a short laugh. “What's that?” “Scone of us trying frantically to trace the telephone call.” Colin shook his head. “I wouldn’t do that in a story,” he said, “Granting the Mask even a modest degree of intelligence, and 1 rank him far above that, it would be obviously useless. The call came Afrom some place like the Grand ‘Central where there are 4 number of public booths—not from a ‘drug: store where there is only a single booth and where he might ha been noticed and a description of him obtained,” “Chéck!” grinned Detective Ser- geant Mulvey. “Fair enough! Well, what did he say?” “He complained about my int macy with you,” replied Colin dryly. “He said the reason he shot me was due to the possibility that Reddy might have given me some inside information which I in turn would band over to the police, but that the police work on the case had been so ridiewlous that he was convinced I knew nothing that would be of any value to you.” “Tl remember that when I get DDEN DOOR BY FRANK L.

And, besides everything else, you need a change, and you feed it bad. You ain't at by a long way yot.” Colta was silent for a moment. “It's buman nature,” be sald odds and ends, he produced a bunch of skeleton keys, He looked at his wateh, Tt was twenty-seven minutes past twelve.

I have never seen them mentioned in works of Natural History but never-the-less they are quite common in certain parts of Florida. While investi- gating shell-mounds and hunting in the woods of east-central Flor- ida I have seen many of them. In either Lake or Seminole counties they may be found at any time by lifting the bark on cab- bage palms that are dead and lying on the ground in the woods. These twin-tailed scorpions are? | probably a distinct variety and |have two perfect tails and two jactive stingers. While usually not over two and one half inches long they are vieious and will sting anything! »| that touches them and they sting with both tails at the same time.

They have a bad disposition and cannot be trusted. LA PLACE BOSTWICK. Key West, Florida, July 26, 1933.
