* IMPRESSIVE SERVICE.

" BEN lay awake for some time
- comparing the return Of Picketzo
that night with the former one.
There was something so diff
ferent about it. The night before Pick
etzo had stopped and talked to Hicke
for some time after making the mys-
FERROUS excursion. He had used signs
as though something were the matter
and he mad not wholly accomplished
what he had get out for. But this night
he seemed better satisfied.
Eben recalled the way he had come in
and gone to his bunk directly as though
something had been finished up, ano he
recognized tone of satisfaction in the
Italians voice.
The difference made these two trips
of PicketzO's more of a mystery TO
Eben.
Both times he had been only partially
dressed. II was very strange for a
man TO leave his stateroom at that
hour Of the night when everybody was
abed and only the watchmen of the

thing he knew the next morning. and

do this the day before. but had been

Having worried about It for some
time. the young fellow fell asleep
again, and IL was once more late when
he awakened I'm the morning.
Picketzo's presence in the stateroom
kept him from examining his trunk.
and before Eben was fully dressed a
steward came by his door announcing
church service in the dining room. For
the first time Eben realized that IL was
Sunday.

PicketzO grinned maliciously when the
announcement was made.
Eben did not deign 10 reply, but, hur-
rying into mis- clothes he went down
10 the crowded dining room
The foEhOrn had been blowing all
night and morning. which may have
accounted for the large attendance at
divine service.
Eben thought OF that as he made
one OF the hushed assemblage and took
his seat beside Marjory Bonner.

Colonel Burgoyne died. leaving his

Shortly afterward Dorothy Calendar
disappeared. We know now that her

disappearance seemed inexplicable,

great deal of valuable information.
She alone knew of the location of GER

HE was an eccentric. One Of his
peculiarities involved the secreting Of
valuables in odd places. He had no
