For “Le Balafre” had detiberately tried to murder him, and false sentiment should form no part of the complement of a criminal investigator. “It Is a daring !dea,” sald Stuart, “and relies for its success upon the chance that ‘The Scorpion’ remains ignorant of the fate of his agent and continues to believe that the body found at Hanover Hole was yours.” Max immediately turned aside and began to speak about their plans. “In a bag which Inspector Dunbar has thoughtfully left tn the cab,” he said—" ughed. “In that bag,” he continued, “Is a suit of clothes such ag habitues of ‘The Pidgin House’ rejoice to wear.
