Ry I'll. III. Hudson


To the usual observer there was
nothing in the appearance OF the
man who entered the elevator 10
attract attention. To the crir';-
nal world, however, the mention
of his name caused the bolltst to
tremble. There was an alartness
about the eye and a suggestion
of strength in the broad shout
ders and sinewy form which pro-
claimed their possessor no ordi-
nary being. He was in fact Ned
Nerve, the detective.
1t was the morning following
one of the boldest robberies in the
city's history. The home of MAJ
Million. the banker, had been bro
ken into and considerable jewelry
had been taken. There was but
one man who could clear up the
matter, and that was the man
who had Just entered the eleva-
tor In disguise.
Upon reaching the inner office
the sleuth snuffed some cocaine
and quickly applied the hypoder-
mic. Great clouds OF tobacco

He was thinking. His reputation
was at stake. Among the stolen
articles was a beautiful pearl
necklace valued at $4,000. The
manner in which the crime had
been committed pointed to but
one. Tom Thug had successfully
evaded the authorities for years.
The police had been notified and a
Idragnet had instantly been thrown

The sleuth's meditations were
interrupted. A caller was an

actress, entered. In an excited
manner she stated that she had
lost a pearl necklace the night
before on her way from the thea
ter, and that she would gladly Of

covery. The detective accepted a

mind easily took in the situation.
His client had read the morning
paper. 1t was advertising she
on her case. The man of affairs
relaxed into a profound reverie
during which his ordinary facul-
ties slumbered while the subcon-
scious mind grew active.
Tom Thug had not been idle.
His ready wit caught the cue of
opportunity as his eye spied the
advertisement of the actress
which appeared later. Hurrying
to the printer he ordered cards
which read: 1.-THE Ned Nerve De-
tective Agency-Jim Slick, Divi-
sion superintendent" Armed
with a card, the thief made haste
to the home of the actress. He
announced that the necklace had
been found and claimed the re-
ward, the same to be paid and the
jewels delivered at the trust COM
pany's office at IL o'clock. He
would thus avoid the risk of try
ing to dispose of his goods at the
pawnshops.
After his departure, Miss Fac
|simile notified Ned Nerve that his
agent had brought her the good
news and that she had arranged
to meet him. Then she began to
deliberate. Having lost no neck
lace, she would be compelled TO
provide for any emergency. She
could purchase an artificial neck
lace and then claim that she had
found the misplaced article-but
no, there was the better way ~
making $1,000. She would go No
the bank and claim the genuine.
After listening to the telephone
communication of the actress, the
detective hung up the receiver and
began to pace up and down the
room. He then donned a d#
guise. The hour had come TO
act. He sauntered over to the
bank and saw the actress inspect
the jewels; but as she was making
out her check ne also saw Jim
Slick exchange the necklace for
the artificial set which he had re-
Gently purchased.
AS the actress left the trust
leompany's office, the detective
stepped forward and placed his
hand on the shoulder of the GRIM
inal. "You thought that by act
ling as my agent you could deceive
me-" he said, while the criminals
face blanched before the fire of
his glance. There Ii but one
course for you to pursue. In
dorse that check to me at once
and hand over the genuine pearls
which you stole from the home of
| Mrs. Million"
The request was complied with
without q murmur. Then the
great detectives heart softened.
"Tom Thug. you are in the wrong
business Now go, and never en-
ter this city again. You may sue

Iordinate in my employ, never"
The eyes OF Mrs. Million bright
ened as the treasured string of
pearls was handed to her a few
hours later. There was no ex-

never confided to anyone the
