SHERLOCK. “Look across the street, Phil. Tom Brandon seems to be scared to death of that big fellow with the black hat. I wonder what's up.” “Don’t bother me, Jim, I'm busy,” returned Harrington, impatiently. “Tom's been casting furtive glances at the big fellow as if he was trying to dodge him,” contimied Morris, ex- citedly. “Now he's stopped in fron¢ of that jewelry store and the big fel- lov:’ has ranged up alongside of him.” Brandon's as pale as a ghost,” ob- served Harrington, now thoroughly in- terested. “He's started off again and the big fellow {s after him. Hello, he's coming over here!” ' This was true. Brandon, eagerly | glancing around for some way of es- cape from his pursuer, had seen Har- rington and was hurrying across the | street. A few moments later, he en- | tered and sank, breathless and ex- | hausted, into the chair Morris pushed | towards him. | “What's the matter, Tom?” inquired ‘ Harrington, solicitously. “You are trembling like a leaf. Who's that big ! fellow who was following you?” “Haven't the slightest idea, Phil” replied Brandon, shuddering at the reference to his pursuer. low's been following me for the past two months. he's always behind me. A week age he moved into the house next door to mine and it's been ten times worse “Why don't you ask him what he means?” demanded Morris. mournfully. “I wish I could, but that fellow's got a pair of the most plerc- ing eyes in his head that you ever saw. They bore me through like a gimlet and send a cold chill down my backbone.” “You're in bad shape, Tom. Why don’t you run down to the country and brace up a bit?” “I'd do it fn a minute, Phil,” replied Brandon, eagerly, “but I'm so tied up that unless I sell my house, I can't go.” “What will you take for the house, Brandon?” inquired Morris, thought- fully. *“Maybe I can sell it for you.” “I'd take five thousand, Jim, al- though I know it's worth more, just 10 get away those infernal black eyes. “All right, Tom,” returned Morris. “I'll take the matter in hand. I have houge.” Jim Morris was keen-eyed and ob- servant. When he watched Brandon’s black-eyed pursuer, Morris felt sure he had scen the man with the piere- ing eyes somewhere although he could not remember just where it had been or under what circumstances. To make sure of this, he stationed him- self near Brandon's house the follow- | ing morning and, unobserved by either, followed Brandon and his shadow downtown.
