Miss Innes, spinster and guardian Of
Gertrude and Halsey, established summer
headquarters at Sunnyside. Amidst nu-
merous difficulties the servants deserted.
AS Miss Innes locked up for the night
she was startled by a dark figure on the
yeranda. UnseemlY noises disturbed ner
during the night. In the morning MISS
lines found a strange link cuff-button IN
a hamper Gertrude and Halsey arrived
with Jack Bailey. The house was awak-
ened by a revolver shot and Arnold Arm
strong was found shot to death In the
hall. Miss Innes found Halsey's revolver
on the lawn. He and Jack Bailey had us
appeared. The link cuff-button mysterl-
ously disappeared. Detective Jameson
arrived. Gertrude revealed she was en-
gagged to Jack Bailey, with whom she
talked In the billiard room a few mo-
ments before the murder. Jameson ac-
cused Miss Innes of holding back evil
dence. He imprisoned an intruder IN an
empty room. The prisoner escaped GOWN
a laundry chute Gertrude was suspected.
A negro found the other half OF what
proved to be Jack Bailey's cuff-putton.
Halsey reappears and says he and Balley

Another thing, Halsey," l said.
have you ever heard Louise mention
a woman named Darlington, Nina Car
rington?"
Never" he said positively.
For try as we would, our thoughts
always came back to that fatal Satur-
day night, and the murder. Every con
versational path led to it, and we all
felt that Jameson was Tightening
the threads of evidence around John
Bailey. The detectives absence was
hardly re~assuring; he must have had
something to work on in town or he
would have returned.
The papers reported that the cash
Ter Of the Traders bank was i'll in his
apartments at the Knickerbocker-a
condition not surprising, considering
everything. The guilt Of the defunct
president was no longer in doubt; the
missing bonds had been advertised
and some of them discovered. In
every instance they had been used as
collateral for large loans, and the
belief was current that not less than
a million and a half dollars had been
realized. Every one connected with
the bank had been placed under ar
rest, and released on heavy bond.
Was he alone in his guilt, or was
the cashier his accomplish? Where
was the money? The estate Of the
dead man was comparatively small
a city house on a fashionable street,
Sunnyside, a large estate largely
mortgaged, an insurance of 5000
and some personal property-this was
all. The rest lost in speculation prob
ably, the papers said. There was one
thing which looked uncomfortable for
Jack Bailey: He and Paul Armstrong
together had promoted a railroad com
pany in New Mexico, and it was ru
mored that together they had sunk
large sums of money there. The bust
ness alliance between the two mer
added to the belief that Bailey knew

he will tell you how the navy women
in a thousand different ways, some

deliberately, annoy the navy depart

how they annoy the department with
