CHAPTER XXI.
stop, Theft

Millicent Delaroche slept soundly.
Hers was the type of beauty that re-
tains its freshness through indulgence
In creature comforts. Not all her
fondness for amusement could lead
her to rob herself for many nights of
the repose she instinctively knew was
essential to the preservation Of her
charms. She was the sort Of woman,
past thirty, who retains a false youth
sometimes more effective than the i'm
maturity which is measured by the
calendar. Her complexion was as
delicate as a debutante's. Her eyes
were brighter than those Of the aver
age athletic young woman, and no
silver thread shot the dusk of her
iuKuriant hair. All this was due large
~, she was convinced, to her life
long habit Of sleeping early and
often. and of resolutely refusing to
let her slumber be disturbed by any
such useless things as dreams, which,
after all, are mere ghosts of thought
and too much thinking was not one
of her foibles.
Though Mrs. Delaroche slept pro
(oundly. her external senses were not
wholly unvigilant Long study of her
self had made her sensitive to disa-
Ereeable impressions that were purely
corporeal; and so, though no intrusive
vision Of mind could interrupt the
fluid calm of her beauty sleep. q slight

"Um, call up Headquarters, and
have a couple Of men sent here to take
this fellow away"
The effect of that command upon
the prisoner startled everyone. Not
only did it cause him to break his sui
len silence, but It drew from him
words that made the house detective
involuntarily loose his hold on the man
and step back, staring. Jims jaw fell,
and Mrs. Delaroche gazed at the fell
low, wide-eyed.
81 can save you that trouble" said
the burglar. you need not telephone
for the Central ONCE men. I am Lieu
tenant Detective Britt of Headquar-
tiers! And these" and he nodded to-
ward the silver casket, ARE the miss
ing Missioner diamonds that were
stolen from the richest woman In
America"
Turning to Mrs. Delaroche abruptly,
he said:
Madam, how do you come to be in
possession of these iewels?"
All the painting loveliness of Mrs.
Delaroche shivered as the sharp ques-
ton bored its way to her inner con-
seriousness. It was now her turn to be
silent. She looked at the Headquar-
tiers man as If he held In his hand her
life, liberty, and whatever chance re-
manned to her of happiness. A CLEAN
of appeal glowed in her beautiful eyes
for a moment. Plainly, If she did not
speak It was not for lack of will. Her
words were as frozen as the normal
condition Of her thoughts. She put
her hands to her breast and gazed at
the Central Office man as piteously as
a woman Of her Junoesque charms
could be expected to do. The ingenue
role was impossible to Mrs. Delaroche;
but had It not been so, undoubtedly
she would have assumed It in this emer-
gency. -..
"Answe~ me, madam; this calls for
an immediate explanation. You told
this man these jewels belonged to you
How does It come you have the dia-
monds everybody in New York knows
as the Maharanee necklace of Mrs.
Doris Missioner"
Mrs. Delaroohe still struggled family
for speech. Her lids quivered; her eyes
closed and then were fixed
upon the detective, and a tremor, be-
ginning at the crown of her adorable
head, moved IN waves to her perfect
feet. She sank into chair and let her
head fall upon her arms as they
stretched inertly across a little tabse.
There was no smallest streak of pity
In the look Detective Britt bent upon
her. He had dealt with women of her
type before many times, he told him
self, and now that he was so near the
heart Of the great Missioner mystery,
L was not his purpose to be Influenced
N the slightest degree by the distress
of a Diana, to say nothing of an Aphro-
lite. Dry sobs choked the woman.
Her eyes strained at Their tendons so
that tears would have been a
divine relief. Whether she was grieved |
Or frightened was not so apparent as
hat she was sorely distressed. Min |
ltes passed before she lifted her face |
and once more looked at the detective. |
The house sleuth and his porter had |
-etreated a yard or more, and the |
srstwhile pajama squad. now an as
