Eyes challenged eyes for one long,
tense instant, and the man carefully
laid the weapon on the table. Mr..
Grimm strolled over and picked 1t up,
after which he glanced inquiringly at
the other mantle ambassadors Sec

And you are the gentleman, l dare
say, who made the necessary trips to
the ambassadors house, probably using
his latchkey?' he remarked interroga-
lively. First for the letters to be
signed, and again for the cigarettes?"
There was no answer, and Mr.. Grimm
turned questioningly to Monsieur
Boissegur, silent, white of face, motion
less.
Yes, monsieur" the ambassador
burst out suddenly. His eyes were fixed
unwaveringly on Miss Thorne
And your escape, monsieur" con-
tinued Mr.. Grimm.

the ambassador explained; "but they
knew it immediately-they pursued
me into my own house, these two and
another-and dragged me back here!

Mr.. Grlmm's ~listless eyes narrowed
slightly and he turned to Miss Thorne.
She was a little white, but he saw
enough in her face to satisfy him.
II shall escort Monsieur Boissegur to
his carriage, Miss Thorne," he said
calmly. ''These men will remain here

Mr.. Grimm and the ambassador went
| down the stairs, and out the front door.
Mr.. Grimm vas just turning to reenter
the house when from above came a
muff1ed, c~ra-as-ash!-a shot!
He took the steps going up, two at a
time. Miss Thorne was leaning against
the wall as II dazed: the revolver lay at
her feet. A door in a far corner of the
room stood open; and the clatter of
footsteps echoed through h house.

This is undoubtedly owing to the fact
that the former commit greater indis-
