CHAPTER II.
The Man of Action.


The con erence that followed In the
quiet of Mrs. Missioner's library
threw no light on the mystery of the
Maharanee's disappearance. Mrs.
Missioner was not of the faintirg
type, and when she entered her Fifth
Avenue home. followed by Dorothy,
Sands, and Griswold she went
straight to the room In which size
kept her jewels
Mrs. Missioner herself switched on
the lights to their full radiance. Size
fastened across the room. her opera

door. painted to harmonic with the
Flemish oak of the wainscot, was
ornamented with only the widows
crest. Silence held the others as her
gloved fingers whirled the little knob.
Not until click announced that the
bolts were thrown did Sands speak
) You are sure all the other stones
are here?" he asked, picking up Mrs.
Missioners lorgnon bag, into which
she had slipped the recovered gems
on leaving her opera box.

haranee diamond, II you could know
how | prize it,
Sands, absently counting the lesser
Jewels, did not see the massive safe
door swing open. His disciplined mind
was working slowly, steadily. Doro-

the widows gloved hand tremh as,
swiftly, she turned smaller knob
controlling the combination OF the
compartment in which she kept her
jewels. His eyes still upon her, he
felt for a cigarette.
The match fell from his fingers as
the inner door opened to his search

light slashed the comparative gloom
of the compartment as Mrs. Missioner
brought forth tray after tray from lie
