OF spray shot up from the pool at the
base of the ledge. Amelia stepped

giving her hand a hasty pressure, and
running along the piazza to the steps.
Mr.. Philbrick came to the surface al
most Immediately. He saw the faces
of the young ladies above him, blew
the water put of his mouth and shout
ed:
Please don't be frightened; there
isn't going to be any tragedy this
time"
With that he began to swim for the
narrow strip Of rock beneath the piaz-
IN. and in spite OF the current and the
weight of his clothing he made per-
ceptible Roadway.
Amelia watched him with straining
eyes, while Louise, after a single
glance, ran around the house to call
her father.
DR.. Williams picked up a loose board
under the piazza and ran with 1t 10 the

thus unbend?:' inquired Mr.. Philbrick,
striking an attitude and declaiming
dramatically; IA thimble? oh, happy

tried TO tuck the professors long
sleeves into a better semblance or a
fit. Il can't improyise rythm when my
attention is SO distracted by my garb,'
he added.
Louise screamed with laughter,
Amelia smiled, and even the doctor
looked amused. He was well pleased,
at all events, that Mr.. Philbrick had
not insisted on looking under the table,
and could therefore afford to recognize
the mans success as a mimic.
You ought to have been an actor,
Mr.. Philbrick," he said.

with jealousy, tried to offer his w

failed utterly.

trayed himself. mo. l am determined
for my own sake to find the truth with

She turned pale, and the doctor was
almost startled. He took a step nearer

and she put out her hand to signify
that he need not approach.
I'm that case she said with some
difficulty, Il do not need to apologize
for leaving you alone. | have no
doubt that my presence would embar-
rass rather than assist your investigaL

She rose and walked slowly toward
the hall.
"0ne moment. Miss Willis" exclaim-
cd the doctor. shall we not work to-
gether in this? 2"
"Together?' she repeated doubtfully.
Yes; we have the same end in
view"
Il doubt that" she interrupted.
The doctor looked at her sharply,
hardly knowing what to make of her
words. She volunteered no explana-
ton, and he continued:
I'VE both wish to find the facts, at
all events. There was no opportunity
this morning to ask what you thought.
You may know things that would aid
me immeasureably."
Amelia shook her head.

Or. Williams felt his blood chill at
this calm, u~nmistakable, If not direct,
accusation of Prof. Drummond by a
member OF his w household. If any
body else-Mr. Philbrick, for example
had said: The professor is a mur-
derer and here is the proof" he could
not have been more shocked. In his
own thoughts he had instinctiyeIy

mystery were recalled to him. His
promise was also recalled by the pres
ence OF the girl who had exacted ii,
and in whose thoughts there was APP
parcntly room for nothing but specu-
lation concerning Starkweathers
death.
Prof. Drummond had been talking
with Louise about minor household
matters, and he concluded by saying:
II have some business TO attend TO
in the village that | didn't want TO
stop for when we were down awhile
ago There's time enough before
luncheon, and as the horse isn't I'M
hitched I'll drive down now. You will,

with pleasure" replied the doctor
with suspicious willingness.
And by the way, doctor. ! hadn't
thought Of it, but Philbrick may want
n stimulant. Take him down some
brandy, will you:"
The doctor nodded and went 10 the
sideboard as Prof. Drummond left the
room. A little later DIR. Williams
knocked at the basement door. There
was no response. He knocked again,
and, after a pause, tried the door. Ii
was locked.
Quick to stir with suspicion in this
house of unusual events, he felt his
heart beating with apprehenslve ex-
element, when Mr.. Philbrick's CHEEKY
voice sounded from within:
who is it,"
Me; Williams; / have some brandy
for you"
Thanks, doctor, but l never drink;
not even for medicine
The doctor waited, irresolute, for a
moment, and then SAID:
Are you most ready?"
"Oh, no."
II knocked twice, Mr.. Philbrick."

You lie" thought the doctor. Aloud:
''The young ladies are waiting for you.
Come up as Don as you can"
"All right" came the contented, un-
concerned reply, and the doctor with
drew.
That will bring him up quickly, if
anything WILL" he reflected, but I'd
like to burst open the door and see
what he's up to-"
DIR. Williams returned to the dining
room. Amelia was seated by a wind
ow, gazing somberly out upon the Mi
niSki. Louise had taken some sewing,
and was busy v e it, a w~orkbasket on
her lap. The doctor took a chair near
her and he thought her face flushed
slightly as she bent her head further
V the work.
That's an original device" re-
marked the doctor, looking up at a
lamp suspended from the ceiling over
the table. 1t was eyidnetly arranged
to be raised or lowered at will. Il
don't see just how it works" he add
ed.
ri show YOU" said Louise. rising,
and as she did so her thimble dropped
TO the floor. AT the mt she did
not notice it. Its papa's invention.
He's a wonderful mechanic. doctor.
I've heard lots of men say that there's
nobody like him for applying mechan-
zeal principles. The lamp is worked by
this button on the table, and she
raised the cloth, revealing a button
like an electric a~nnunciator. She
pressed it and the lamp began to de-
Scend.
rs it electricity? ~ asked the doctor,
feeling his heart quake. for Prof.
Drummond had said his electrical APP
paratus was wholly in his shop.
'Oh, no, pure mechanics. The table
is attached to the floor. This button is

yer a hollow leg, in which is a coil Oh
something, and it is connected with
the lamp by wires that run over
wheels beneath the floor and within
the wall to the ceiling"
The doctor breathed more freely. 1t
would have been terribly repugnant to
him to catch the professor in a lie, or
discover any evidence pointing to his
probable guilt. He longed now, with
the utmost -earnestness, to establish
the professors innocence and he deter
mined boldly to approach the profess
or, tell him how suspicion was rife in
the neighborhood, and beg him to take
every step possible to clear himself.
Dear me,' exclaimed Louise, I've
dropped my thimble."
She began to look around on the
floor.
Perhaps it's under the table," said
the doctor and he promptly got down
on all fours and crawled part way uI-
der. He did not see the thimble at
once: but he did see something that
more than interested him. While pre-
tending to look for the thimble he kept
his eyes on this object and tried to
quell the beating of his heart so that
when he should arise his face would be
perfectly composed.
On the leg of the table, at the side
where Prof. A-nmond always sat.
was a little brass tver. There was no
installing 1t. 1t was not part of the
mechanism by which the leaves of the
table were joined together. The lever
was m electric swithch. as surely as
the doctor was that moment in Fair

Here, then was the proof of a lie!

dreamed of the trivial accident that
would reveal its presence TO tho one
man who might guess its significance

"The n man." Hardly. Mr.. Phil
brick stalked into the room, intent up
on making the most fun possible out of
the roomy garments OF the professor,
and, catching a glimpse Of the doctor,
beneath the table. exclaimed:

THEY ARE SATISFIED.

The people Of Oklahoma and
of Kansas, as well as all the
people. of the United States, are
interested if not deeply con-
cermed in the result of the elec-
tions in the Indian Territory.
One of the tribes, the Chicka-
saw nation, has held its election.
The returns show that this
branch of the FIVE tribes has
elected a governor, senate and
legislature all in favor of the
Dawes commission compromise
and the proposed allotment of
the Indian lands. This is one
decisive step toward a solution
of the veXed problem of these
southwestern sovereignties. III
the other tribes shall only sue
ceed in expressing as genuine a
tribal sentiment as this at the
polls the federal government
will not be forced To violate 4

ever, exert their utmost power
