PAGE FOUR *™ °° en Chapter 2L Rees china-blue eyes blinked in the raw glare of the morn- ing sun. Jigger was mopping up the goo of an omelette-once- over ‘with a tear of' white bread. A counterman-cook with a face . like a dried goatskin poured flipped pancakes on a plate and slid the plate over to Red. Red sheared through the pancakes with the side of his fork, squall- ing; ‘“When'do I get my a tical from you homicidal lusts, ger? Ordo I major-domo® fox’ you until death do us part?”" Jigger breathed in gasps from the effort of gorging foot as a strict matter of dietary *peotocol, without appetite. “I said the case won’t go over two weeks: You’ve got about five more days and you’re free to return to stealing ideas and whole sentences from your contemporary pen-pushers. Meanwhile, bub, swill that coffee and get on the ball.” “What felony must I compound now, Fagin? I see that certain look om your degenerate pan again.” Jigger looked at Red like a man preetesting a gibbet. “Well, Red, we’ve reached the ‘stage where .we must resort to hack- neyed but approved police tech- nique. We’ve been botching along to date sort of expecting a genie . to appear and hand us a presto- holy-cow-you-don’t-say dehoue- ment on a Tiffany platter.” Jigger took on a haunted look. :“Pve been especially wishful for such a conclusion since the four-thou- sand-dollar balance has gone glimmering.” Red leaped avidly, his Adam’s apple bouncing like a floating cork as the coffee spilled through his mouth. “Why don’t we pack it all in? How can an Arab trader like you work for glory?” “Can’t quit now, Red. Even with the four G’s looking doubtful, it’s The Weather FORECAST Key West and Vicinity: Partly; ‘cloudy this afternoon thru Sat- ; urday. Not much change’ in temperature.

Then again, I might be able to smoke up some payoff from one source or another.” It was lame, lamebrain, and un- convincing. Jigger ended hope- fully, “Even for sweet curiosity’s sake, we ought to invest another couple of days. There’s still a cou- ple of hundred of the original grand left.” Red poked a disdainful fork in the meatless impurities Jigger had dished up: “Bunk, bull, bol- oney! The only mating call you heed is the cry of the.golden eagle. You’ve, been chasing the buck with the’same fanatical vir- tuosity as the slumshocked. You’d have to be remade from scratch, boss, to work at anything without pay.” “If you’re previewing lines of a play, Red—with me as acoustics— may I observe that your literary style is bush league.” Red yawned “Oh yeah?” and beat his way back to the business of the day: “Where do I go from here?” “To the Herz residence. Take up a fixed post outside. We should have done this from the begin- a ; “You've scouted the place, Jig- ger. Where’s the best spot I can be in without being seen?” A truckdriver said, “Pass the sugar,” and leaned close not to miss a word of what Jigger was saying. IGGER drew Red off to a side. “That’s not the idea, Red. I want you to take pains to be seen, even if you have to phone the wid- ow and tell her you’re watching her every movement.” Red said, “Now what line of hokum are you handing me?” Jigger explained it: “I want her to feel trapped in her home. Afraid to venture out for fear of being trailed. Make her rely on synthetic communications utterly, particularly the mails.” Rotary Engagement Of Miss Irma Sands Mr. and Mrs. Elijah Sands, 1746 and’ 'Saturddy beginning’ ‘Talla-!

Telegraph is too public. Hence the mails for per- sonal communication. What elsé? “So, it’s the mails. Then what?” “I am on my way to the P.O. to commit a small felony.

I’ve got what’s left of a private life to take care of—like taking a bath.” i Jigger moved his head from side to side grimly. “No relief today. Red. If you get hungry, scare up a kid to run and get you a ham sandwich and a container of cof- fee. You must be omnipresent for the widow to get the idea.” x Red inquired as a point of in- formation, “Where you going, chief. cheese?” 8 “I’m off to work a pressure hoax on Little Joey, with A’hearn aid- ing and abetting.” |. “What kind of pressure hoax?” “Joey’s going to tell me over again how. he tortured Munsey. Then I’m going to relate.sadly the news of Munsey’s death. Dicta- phones will record our. friendly confab which same will also be told Little Joey in the proper se- quence—to the end that. maybe Joey will part with a few facts he’s been reticent about to date.” (Te be centipued) ee Club and Schools ASSISTANT SUPERVISOR .OF SCHOOL LUN CHROOMS VIS- ITED HERE YESTERDAY:|_ FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1947 | CLASSIFIE D ADS —< Information for RATES FOR REGULAR ané BLACKFACE TYPE Advertisements under this head in The Citizen at te eet The word for each in- the Advertisers PAYMENT nt for elassified advertige.
