CHAPTER XVI.
HaLsey's Disappearance

HalseyS Disappearance.
Mr.. Jameson came back about
eight o'clock the next morning; he
was covered with mud, and his hat
was gone. Altogether we were a sad
looking trio that gathered around a
breakfast that no one could eat Over
a cup of black coffee the detective
told us what he had learned of Hal
sey's movements the night before. Up
to certain point the car had made it
easy enough to follow him. And 1
gathered that Mr.. Burns, the other de
tective, had followed a similar car
for miles at dawn, only to find it was
a touring car on an endurance run.
He left here about ten minutes aft
er eight Mr.. Jameson said. He
went alone; at $40 he stopped at DR..
Walkers. 1 went to the doctors
about midnight, but he had been
called out on a case, and had not
come back at four o'clock. From the
doctors it seems MIR. Innes walked
across the lawn to the cottage Mrs
Armstrong and her daughter have
taken. Mrs. Armstrong had retired,
and he said perhaps a dozen words to
Miss Louise. She will not say what
they were, but the girl evidently sus-
poets what has occurred. That is, she
suspects foul play, but she doesn't
know of what nature. Then, appar-
emily, he started directly for the sta
ton. Along somewhere in the dark
stretch between Carol street and the
depot he evidently Swerved suddenly
perhaps some one in the road-and
went full into the side of a freight.
We found it there last night
HE might have been thrown under
the train by the force of the shock, -
1 said TREMENDOUSLY.
Gertrude shuddered
1--WE examined every inch of track.
There was-no sign.
But surely-he can't be-gone!" !
cried Aren't there traces in the
mud-anything?'
There is no mud-only dust. There
has been no rain. And the footpath
there is of cinders. Miss Innes. l am
inclined to think that he has met with
bad treatment, in the light of what
has gone before. 1 do not think he
has been murdered" 1 shrank from
the word. Burns is hack in the coun-
try on clew we got rom the night
clerk at the drug store There will be
two more men here BY noon, and the
city office is on the lookout"
The creek?" Gertruds asked
The creek is shallot> now. If ii
were swollen with rain It would be
different There is hardly any water
in it. Now, Miss Innes," he said
turning to me, I must ask you some
questions. Had Mr. Halsey any pos
sible reason fer going away like this
witht,-:. warning2'
None whatever.

LEWIS "sINGLE BINDER"

A handmade cigar fresh from the
table, wrapped in foil, thus keeping
fresh until smoked. A fresh cigar
made of good tobacco is the ideal
smoke. The old, well cured tobaccos
used are so rich in quality that many
who formerly smoked 10c cigars now
smoke Lewis Single Binder Straight
&c. Lewis Single Binder costs the
dealer some more than other &c cigars,
but the higher price enables this fac
tory to use extra quality tobacco.
There are many limitations; don't be
fooled. There is no substitute! Tell
the dealer you want a Lewis Single
Binder"
