cars, but observed nothing Of the East
Indians; but all the Ame, tho very one
morning saw him.
This fellow was the ono known as
Wichman, and peering around the cor
ner of n building, carefully screening his
body from observation meanwhile, lie
kept his black eyes fixed on the detective
as long as he was in sight. J.
Max Manson did not forget his oblga-
tons to Folsom Simpson, whom he had
left working on the case at Ellcnviile.
A moment before entering the cars he
tclcgraphed him in cipher:
The case is closed. | have recovered

he says, too, he will mean. for there is no

The day was drawing to a close when
his train rumbled into the Grand Cen
trail station, and calling cab he was
soon whirled to headquarters. Chief
Narick was absent, and he found no ono
present to whom he deemed it advisable
to make his report. s.
The following message however, from
Simpson was awaiting him, and, as may
Jo supposed, Manson read it with pc
culiGr feelings: r
Il would Ike to congratulate you, old
fellow, but don't think you have got

What the mischief can he mean"
Manson asked himself as he held tho
writing in his hand and read and reread
it. II tod him plainly enough that /

Yielding to a vague misgiying for
which be could not account, lie left the
Office, and boarding street car rode to

FOLSOM SIMPSON MADE a BRILLIANT DIS
PLAY % Ills SKILL.
Between 9 and 10 oclocl; on the fol-
lowing morning the heavy knocller OF the
Residence Of the late Miss Llvermore was
sounded, ard the maia who answered It
found the rotuud MI Simpson awaiting
her. With polite bow lie asked:

The servant drew back the door. and he
stepped into the hall. There was no
reason for Mr.. Simpson assuming any
other namo than his own. for no one be-
sides Manson suspected his identity or
business ii Ellcnville. Chief Narick had
cent one of his men direct to DR.. Maid
hotf, who was thus placed on his guard.
He deemed it wise TO send another trust
ed person. Of whom the physician should
know nothing.

The mOmentary confusion shown BY
Miss Glider confirmed Simpson in hi,
conviction that only the border of the
mystery Of the rajah's ruby had as yet
been touched. Despite his caution and
the skill with which he had managed the
interview, the young lady had formed n
suspicion of him. A woman's instinct
is superior to a mans wisdom, and she
was on her guard.
Ii the detective was to win, it must be
through u victory over this keen wtted
young lady. Her last remark proved it.
lie could franc no good excuse for

Although Simpson and Manson had

before, they deemed it wise to act at

CHAPTER VII.

~ DON'T THINK YOU HAVE GOT TIE RA-
JAH'S RUBY"
The following morning, when the two
sopoys appeared on the front porch Of
the Wingiicid hc;cl. Max Manson was in
the act Of saying goodby to the landlord.
Il must take the next train to New
orll, said he; THE distance TO the sta
ton is so short I'll walk, but have no
time TO lose"
Nevertheless he stood few minutes
after one Of the aliens started in the
direction Of the station. When the de-
tective reached that point, the fellow
was lounging among several waitir :
passengers Without seeming TO pay
;,ttentiOa to him Max observed that LOO
bought no ticket. There could be 10
doubt that he had gone thithcr to watch
Manson.
The latter bought with some ostcnta-
ton ticket for the metropolis and ell
tered the smoking car Of the train, which
drew up few minutes later. Tho
glance which no cast at tho platform
showed the East Indian still there. where
he doubtless staid until after the cars
had steamed away.

The physician had secured the prize,
as he could readily do, and the detective
was inclined to suspect that he had not
hesitatcd at the crime of murder in order
to carry out his part Of the bargain. lie
had received the wages Of his treacherv,
and the messengers of evil were making
their wav homeward with the priceless
jewel and doing so with a elaboration
that they might well believe would ward
off ell suspicion.
Manson sat down for Il brief talk with
the landlord before retiring for the
night. lie apparently bestowed little
attention on the fellows in the corner,
but he wanted the chance to study them,
to make u preliminary survey Of the
ground, as.may be said.
On their part they seemed TO feel no
interest in him, but every time he stolo
q glance at the duslty comtenances, with
their red felt skull caps, from which gilt
tassels dangled, he encountered those
snaky eyes which instantly fitted their
looks in another direction.
ut is impossible that they should
suspect me-" was his conclusion "any
more than they may suspect all stran-
gers. l am sure they are fully armed and
the couple will be dangerous to attack"
They continued conversing with con-
siderable animation, being free with their
gestures and apparently deeply interested
in what each was saving.

The coast seemed to be clear, and he
stepped ont. a number OF other people
doing the same, to say nothing of several
who took their departure from the place.
Manson was specially anxious to get
back to'the inn without detection by tho
foreigners. He made his way along and
through the street with the greatest pos
sible precaution. 1t was to be supposed
that the pcddlcrs would be absent by
that time retailing their knickknacks
through the neighborhood. Manson was
confident, therefore, when be assembled

caught the first glimpse Of them, that he
had nothing to fear in the way of dis
coyery.
The landlord naturally showed some
surprise ut seeing his late guest again,

had been put in good order. The land
