His apparery. stupor in the District Attorney’s of- fice had been due to the realization of his helplessness; now that the actio: had started, he was restless, and eager as a soldier when the wh announces the zero hour. ‘Throuh his mind rushed a thousand fancies, sothe of hope, some of despair, and the result was a fierce desire to do something himself.

But Whiting was already at th knocking fur- jously, “No luck,” he cried. “It's just a service station and no one is here, Try that house,” he ordered Vamw Winkle, “and I'll the one on this side.” ‘ He pounded on the door of a cot~ tage and soon a man appeared hold. ing @ barking dog in leash and gleep- ly demanded what the trouble was. “We are officers,” declared Whiting abruptly, “Where ig the man who keeps this place?” ' . ‘You mean Hennessey?" asked the’ man, now w.de awake after the me ton of officers, ti hjs name,” replied whit- ing ieopetienty, “Where is he?” “Home and in bed, I s'pose,” replied the man, who was evidently aot ‘blessed with unusual intelligence, “Answer me directly,” ordered Whiting. “Can you take me to him?** ‘Could 'f I had to, 1 e'pose, ‘Well, you Have to, Get on @ coad come with us.
