He was big all ove, strangely burly for a Jew, with broad shoulders and large hanas, thickly covered with hair, “And) now that you have located the fellow,” I asked, “what do\you Propose doing—go out and talk with him?" She shook fer head. “Certainly not. I might send you, but have no inclination to take that risk myself. I am simply going to remain bere and see what happens. “But what do you expect to hap- pon?

Th Russian could uot have been armed, for he came at me with bare hands, his grip like that of a bear. For an ingtant he had. me throttled, scarce! able to breathe, my hande pinn helplessly in the grasp of his arma. But brute strength was all he poss sessed, brute strength and ferocity. The bottle was crushed out of my fingers, yet 1 wriggled partially trea and go! one hand twisted into his whiskere, jerking his head back, and sidewise, until the strained ‘neck threatened to crack, and he had te release his grip to protect himself. It was all over in a minute, but hot while it lagted; I know we struck, against the girl throwing her to her knees; I know the fellow stumbled over Harris's legs, givine me a chance to drive home one jist square into his face. I heard him rip ou: w Hebrew oath, and saw blood gtaining his lips. I tried to break away from him, but it was no use; yet the af- fort opened his guard for a swift uppercut, and I let him have It straight to the chin. He crashed back cross the table, and hung there dangling, arms outspread and head in a broken dish. Before I could strike again, or even reoover my breath, the curtains were thrust vio- lently aside, and the head waiter, backed by a half dozen subordinates, came tumbling in over Harris’ inert body. Even as they stared about, f helped the girl to hor feet, and faced them. -— “What happen here, M’sieur? What happen? shricked | the excited renchman, “You e] men Frenche keel ? “No; they're just knocked out. little private affair, that’s all” I ala, too exhausted to speak clearly. “See here, M’sieur,” and I thrust the first bill I could reach into his hand. “Hush this up, will you, and let the lady and me get out of here.” He dashed about frantically, wringing his hands and gestioulatin "Oui, oul! Eet shall be so. There ees to be no trouble, no police. Ze men attack you, M’sieur Daly—I see eet all; you protect ze Madame, There be no noise, no peestal—bien! Francois, Jules, you will help ze lady Cee gentleman to go—quick.”” group of waiters stood befo: outer door, evidently collected roses to prevent any alarm from reaching the outside, To the signal of Fran. cols these stepped aside, permitting us to pass through inte the vesti- bule. Jules accompanied us, ing brusquely to the maid, who was peering at the scene within. “Ze wraps, please. Ah, you hav’ 26 checks, M’sieur. Hurry, Hortense.” I slipped a coin into the palm of jeach, assisted my companion into her z0 Nor did Harris’ expression and man- ner render this improbable. The latter pushed his way forward with angry strides, until he reached the| man he sought, leaning over the table to front him, his face black with pas- sion, his first words plainly audible to us above the din of a jazz band. “Say, where the hell have you been? What is this, a double cross, Wal- dront Waldron spread his hands and lifted his shoulders jn an expression more eloquent than words: “What a man! You cuss me, but not wait to hear why this all was so. You sit down and [ tell you. Then maybe you tell me something also.” Neither one of us touched a thing, the coffee growing cold In the cups as we endeavored to distinguish what was going on at that second table out in the main dining room. I came,around beside her to where I could peer out also beneath the curtain fold, and thus gain glimpses of the two men. They Were talking earnestly, but had low- eréd their voices until they were nearly inaudible amid the din of the place. ‘Phe anger and threat had gone out oi both yoicesi they seemed to be ex- plaining and arguing together, but only occasionally could we Weave to- gether words into an nderstandable sentence; these came to us detached unrelated, as the surrounding notse ceased Suddenly, or the music came to @ pause. “You didn’t get it!

That damn girl rode down with him, Waldron broke in, stung by thie sast nt into elevating his voice. What you mean, I keep my mouzh shut? So help me, Moses, I tell no- bod: “The hell you didn't. You blabbed the whole thing to Daly. He told we so himself. That's what 1 was doing last night, bluffing him out,” “I tell Daly? Where you git that stuff.

She waited while I settled with the chauffeur, and we crossed the wide pavement together. “It may be best for you not to come in; one never knows.” “You are actually stopping here, then?” “Temporarily, yee; but tt will be, useless for you to search the regis- ter.” “I am aware of that; I have no guide, This is not a final parting, I hope?” not. You do 1 mean you shall. Good night.” As I reached my own room at my hotel a half hour later my glance fell upon the valise in one corner, It was just where I reme: leav-, ing it when I went out, yet some- thing, which, at that distance, re- sembled a slash in the leather, { crossed over and bent down; it was a slash, the clean cut of @ knife, run- |ning from end to end, penetrating through both leather and cloth. Who- ever had done the deed had been | unable to operate the lock and had used the blade as a last resort, slit- ting the entire bag wide open. ‘I in- serted my hand and felt within; nothing seemed missing or greatly disturbed. The thiet must have been seeking money, or jewelry, and find- ing none, had ‘taken nothing else, I jexplored' to the bottom and then | sprang to my feet in startled amaze- ment—the dagger I had concealed there was gone! a Good God! what could be the mean” |ing of this? She had worn that orna- |ment im her hat openly, purposely, tell me of Daly before?’ “Tell you! Good Goa, you got him in. I never knew *it until he told me.” A waiter brushed past him, bear- ing a tray, striking against one shoul- der as he passed. Harris glanced up with a snarling oath, and, before I realized the danger, ‘his eyes must have caught a glimpse of me beneath the draped curtain. Instantly the fellow was on his feet, ail else for- gotten in a swift wave of passion, “By God, Waldron! There is the guy now!" he burst forth. "He's hid- ing in that booth; I saw him. Come on, and we'll have the stiff cough up yet!” I drew back swiftly, pushing the girl behind me. There was no place lin which to hide, no chance for es- cape. Perhaps { could explain, but, lif not, then I must fight. I bad no time but for this one thought, before \the two came plunging through the | ng and faced us, the heavy cur- | tains dropping behind them and shut- ting out all view beyond.

How did she even suspect I wag the first to discover the dead body and bear away with me the tell-tule weapon with which Alva had been murdered? I had no means of know- ing how—only she alone had special reason to regain possession of that knife. It meant nothing to any one else; it was no damning evidence of guilt, no convincing proof.
