TUESDAY, JANUARY 9, 1940 YESTERDAY: Tuck and Bunny 90 through the woods to the log on which Duncan and Bunny were sitting when they saw the ereeping man. A gray shell hair- pin is lying there—Mrs. Devoe’s. Chapter 43 Veath Walks The Night ATER on that afiernoon, the heat and low-hanging clouds resolved themselves into rain, which fell at first gently, then gathered force and became a veri-}| table deluge. By cleven o'clock at night there were pools of water standing on the roads and paths,) and the wind was lashing the tree- tops and branches fiercely. Two very uncomfortable police officers stood among the trees at the back of the Forresters’ garden, their hat brims turned down to} shed the water, their raincoats dripping. “It’s a filthy night,” Hall growled “If L was this murdherin’ divil that’s abroad,” Donovan said un- by Frances Shelley Wees der his breath, “I’d choose this night fer me dirty work.

He gets no rain} there in the lee of the house. He a bold lad, that.” He buttoned coat tighter to his throat. “I g | Td better be leavin’ again,” he said. | “It won't do to be away from the| front of the house long, ye never) can tell.” He started off cautiously toward the shadow of Miss Lissey’s hedge, then turned and came s “D’ye thing one of us better have a look at the kid, now?” he asked. “Ye'll remember . . . there’s been no owls hootin’ in the dark tonight, Hall?” tent} laughed under his ‘It's too wet. But go if you like— T'll slide around to the front of the | house, while you keep your eye) peeled here at the back.” They separated, Donovan mov-| ing noiselessly along the path to- ward the Deanes’ back gate, Hall going toward Miss Lissey’s hedge| again. It had b agreed upon that they would not risk their dis- closure by crossing the open stretches of the garden, although there was little fear of disclosure on such a night as this. Hal! made his circle of the hedge, went in at the Forresters’ front gate, tried their front door softly; went on around to the sun porch, and tried that. Locked. The win- dows on the ground floor were shut tight, and he peered up at the sec- ond story: none open tonight. The} kitchen door was locked too, and} he encountered nothing, he: nothing to make him_suspicic The little dog at the Deanes’ was | whining louder now—he caught the sounds between gusts of wind. He reached the junction of} the paths again, at the back of the garden, glanced over toward Deanes’. and caught the flash of Donovan’s light inside the tent. Instantly he strode down the path and into the garden. He lifted the flap of the tent. Donovan was bending over the pallet in the corner, his arm under the shoulders of the boy who lay| there. He looked up as Hall en- tered. “Get his father quick, Hall, and a doctor.” he said bitterly. “It’s | got the lad now. He’s barely livin’.” | ‘Gas? HA did not stop for questions, but obeyed instantly. He rang the Deane door-bell furiously. rattled at the door, and banged on it. In a few minutes a light flashed on and through the glass he saw Mr. Deane, his bathrobe caught up hastily, coming hurriedly down the stairs. | The door opened. “What——” Mr. Deane began. “Phone your doctor quick,” Hall commanded. “Your boy’s been burt.” Mr. Deane scuttled to the tele- phone without another word. Hall ran back to the little tent, and was immediately followed by Mrs. Deane, her hair in two braids, her nightgown soaked through instantly. Donovan was attempt- ing to force whiskey from his emergency flask between the boy’s teth, and not succeeding. Mrs. Deane stared at Gordon. “What's happened?” she whis pered. “My boy—hurt?” “We'll have to get him inside,”} Donovan said gently. “If you'll go| ahead and ma’am. He’s had a sad blow on his head, but he’s still living, the Lord be praised.” They got the boy inside, and into bed before the doctor came; it was not until then that either man was able to leave. The whole proceed- ing had not taken more than fifteen minutes, but Hall fairly ran back to the Forrester house with Don- ovan at his heels. Donovan was cold with rage. “I'd break avery bone in his body wid me own two hands, if I could get him!” he muttered to himself. “The—the——” “What's worrying me,” said Hall, “is, has anything happened here while we were away, Done RAKE DRUMS TO CHIMES DISON.

Try the doors and windows, eh?” They met at the front of the house. “As far as I can see there’s nota thing wrong,” Hall said. “But, by the Lord Harry, we don’t dare take any chances. I'm going to get them up.” He stepped to the door ed the door-bell. They it ring in the‘interior of the house. Silence. He pressed it again, a long loud peal. Nothing stirred. “Put your shoulder to that door, Donovan,” Hall said suddenly. “We're going in.” The two men lunged against the door together. It was strong. Hall pressed the door-bell again and again as they threw themselves at the heavy barrier, but there was and | still no evidence of life within. “I—don’t—like this,” Donovan gasped. “Come.on now, here goes!

A wv me gi f wind came in and blew th h to the in the west bedroom that Hail opened. Each man gulped at the fresh air, and then turned to the work in hand. Michael and Tuck, from the beds in that west room, were carried down first, carried down and !aid on the wet grass in the rain, while the men went back. “There’s a girl —I don’t know where she sleeps— and a maid,” Hall said, and it was | the work of but a few moments to find them and carry them out. “Are they dead?” Donovan de- manded. “I don’t know. They're not mov- ing. The doctor’s still here, thank the Lord.” They were not dead, although another few minutes would have been too much for Tuck. The e’s house was turned into a hospital that right, with Mr. Deane running about in bewilderment and Mrs. Deane hanging distract- edly over her son, whose head was now swathed in bandages. Charlotte Jean revived first, and Bunny next. Michael was very sil but he recovered quickly. He listened to Hall's tale, lying back on his pillow, without a word, until he heard of the attack on Gordon. Then he swung his feet around to the floor, his head in his hands, “We've got to do something quick,” he muttered. “Gordon! It’s madness, it’s insanity.” “It's too big for us,” Donovan said ashamedly. “You were al] near done for tonight, Mr. Forrester. It's a devil we're up against, that’s what it is.” It was not until morning that they discovered how it had been done. In the gray dawn Donoven covered his face again, and went down to the basement, to discover the gas in the furnace turned full on. But he could not stay to in- vestigate then; he turned it off, and went back outside while it cleared out of the house. But later they discovered that the pipe leading from the furnace to the chimney had been disconnected, and so the gas, turned on but not lit, went up the heat pipes and so all through the house. And they found. also, | a long heavy cord tied to the fur- nace lever, the gas control lever; a cord which went up across the furnace, lay along the top of a pipe, and had the end dangling just below one of the basement win- dows. Hall examined it closely. “That end was on the other side of the window last night,” he said. “See? There’s this little corner of glass broken out. He had it ready in ad- vance, and the string through—all he had to do was sneak in here for a second and pull it.” “But when did he make all these preparations?” Michael demanded. Hall shook his head. “How long since you had that furnace lit?” “We've never had it lit since we here you are, then. It might have been fixed like this for weeks.” “No. I was down here about a week after we moved in—looking for some beads my wife dropped. | It wasn’t there then.” “It wouldn’t take a man more than five minutes.” Michael turned away. “It might have been done at that Sunday party,” he said wearily. “The day Miss Lissey was murdered.” He went directly to the tele- phone and called his father. “Have them issue a warrant for Dunean Murchison’s arrest, will you, dad?” he said. “We can’t take any more chances.” AUTO FIXED UP COW BROCTON, Mass.—After limp- ing for several days, a cow's dis- located hip was knocked back into place ky an automobile on & road near this city. IPS TOUGH 70 Past Decade Matches ’20’s For Outstanding Stars se * EACH SPORT DURING THE ceecccssccscccoecccecooce By DILLON GRAHAM, Sports Editor, ,AP Feature Service NEW YORK, Jan. 9.—Those who draw their portraits with magnificent, exciting and touch- ing words often have sketched for us the glories of the 1920's, the Golden Age of Sports. It was a booming, rushing era that brought us Dempsey, the killer of the ring; Jones, the art- ist of the links; Ruth, the bludg- eoner of baseball; Hitchcock, the dervish of polo; Weissmuller, the porpoise of the pools; Tilden, the crafty king of the courts; and Nurmi, the rhythmic runner. Surely that was a great period. But the decade just past, the Thirties, spawned some polished performers of its own. Perhaps history will judge some of these as even mightier than their predecessors of the Twenties. Who were these standouts the Thrilling Thirties? Golf gave us many marvels. There was Ralph Guldahl, one of the few men ever to win the Na- tional Open championship two straight years, who set an_ all- time scoring record; and Denny Shute, an icy-veined competitor, twice match play ruler, who also won the British Open and tied for the American; then there was Gene Sarazen, who won the British and American Open and the Professionals’ championships. Coover, Picard, Snead Harry Cooper was a low scor- er for many years, as was Henry Picard, who won the Professional crown. Sammy Snead was the long-hitting glamor boy. Baseball had many stars. The current kingpin, Joe DiMaggio, may go down in history as the greatest of all time. The game has seen few pitchers as_ great over a pericd of years as King Carl Hubbell or Lefty Grove.
