he saw 1t, was offensive. Sands seri-
| ously meditated for an instant an at
tempt to grasp the Headquarters man
| by the collar, rush him to the door,
and drop him down at least one fight
of stairs. The sleuth's coolness and
courage avoided any unpleasantness
of that sort, and his unwilling host
quickly regained his grip upon him
self.
The tension of the situation was re-
laxed by the buzzing of the electric
bell at the outer door of the apart
ment, and the entrance Of somewhat
clustering bellboy with an announce
ment that patrol wagon was at the
door and two policemen were asking
for Detective Britz of Headquarters,
who was visiting Mr.. Sands.
Bring them up" said Britz, vast
ing no further time on courtesy. Then
he turned to the millionaire and said:
II wouldn't have brought the patrol
wagon here, Mr.. Sands, If you had
been little more considerate. A
couple Of plain-clothes men could have
taken these fellows to the police sta
ton easily enough; but, when man,
through rush of emotion to the
brain, or-for-some-othe reason
makes faces at the law as openly as
you have done. why, let the law take
its course. / say"
Sands maintained dignified silence
as pair of bluecoats, stumbling over
a bearskin rug in the library, came
into the suite, and at sign from
Britz, seized the shrinking Orientals.
One by one the prisoners were lifted,
neck and heels, and taken to the pa
troll wagon. Britz, of course, could
have had the bandages about their
feet removed, for 1t would have been
perfectly safe to let those sturdy po-
licemen escort them to the sidewalk
in the ordinary way; but Britz was
only human. The memory of the grip
In which those very men had held him
In the ride along Riverside Drive, of
the smothering solitude OF the desolate
apartment house. and the struggle
which had followed, came to him in
the moment when he was on the point
Of ordering the unfettering of the
captives. With grin that struck
terror to their cringing Eastern souls,
he said to them:
"You two artists are 80 fond OF silk
that l guess I'll let you wear those
ornaments little while longer"
When the Hindoos were gone, Britz
turned to Sands, and said with en-
phasis:
IF you experience change OF
heart, Mr.. Sands, shall be very glad
to hear from you In regard to what
yon found on your dark friend. or

but it may'dawn upon you before very
long that 1t will be well worth your
while, Mr.. Sands, not only to let me see
the thing, but to tell me everything you
know about 1t. Goodnight, Mr.. Sands"
And there was something ominous
in the military click of the detectives
heels as he walked across the echoing
marquetry to the elevator.
