The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1912-08-02

1Nl( (..... : night she got into the Fleming house, using the key she had taken. She ran sacked the library, finding not the let ters that Wardrop had said were there, but others equally or more incriminat- ing, cancelled notes, private accounts that would have ruined Schwartz for ever.
 1t was then that saw the light and went downstairs. My unlucky stumble gave her warning enough to turn out the light. For the rest, the chase through the back hall, the dining room and the pantry had culminated in her escape up the back stairs, while had fallen down the dumb waiter shaft. She had run into Bella on the upper Hoor Bella. who had almost tainted and who knew her and kept her until morning, betting her and soothing her and finally getting her into a troubled sleep.
 That day she realized that she was being followed. When Edithfs invita- lion came she accepted it at once for the sake of losing herself aud her pa pers' until she was ready to use them. 1t had disccncerted her to find Mar gerry there, but she managed ito get along. or several days everything had gone vel. She was getting strong sez asAfn reaagk &or thea second aet scf the play. prepared to biackmail Schwartz and then expose him. She would have killed him later probab bly,. She wanted her measure full and run ning over. and so she would disgrace him first
 Then Schwartz must have learned of the loss of the.papers from the Elem ng house and guessed the rest She. felt sure he had known from the first @ho hH9 killed ElemdHg@ Rowever that might be, he had had her room entered, Margery chloroforned in ths connecting room, and her papers were taken from under her pillow while she was pretending anaesthesia. She had followed the two men through. the house and out the kitchen door, where she had tainted onsthe grass.
 The next night when she had retired early. leaving Margery and me down stairs, it had been an excuse to slip out of the house. How she found that Schwarfz was at the White Cat, how she got through the side entrance, we never knew, He had burned the pa- pers before She got there, and when she tried to kill him he had struck her hand aside.
 At noon that day telephoned to Margery,
 Come up,'' IL said, ssand sbning the keys to the Monmouth avenue house. have some things to tell you and :: some things to ask you"
 T met her at the station with Lady Gray and the trap. My plans for that afternoon were comprehensive. They included what hoped to be the solu- ton of the Aunt Jane mystery. Also they included a little drivest through the park and dwell. shall tell about that all am going to tell at the proper time.
 To play propriety, Edith met us at the house. It was still closed, and even in the short time that had elaps- ed it smelled close and mnsty. At the door into the drawing room I stopped them.
 "Now, this. is going to be sort of game" I explained. Its a sort of button, button, who's got the button, without the button We are looking for, a drawer, receptacle or closet, which shall contain. punched together, and without regard to- whether they should be there or not, a small revol- yer, two military brushes and clothes brush, two or three soft bosomed shirts, perhaps a half dozen collars, and a suit of underwear Also small flat package about eight inches long and three wide"
 = What in the world are you talking about?'' Edith asked.
 r'-.I am not talking, I am theorizing,' ? explained.
 I think Margery caught my idea at once, and as Edith was ready for any thing, we commenced the search Edith took the top floor, being accustomed, she said, to finding unexpected things in the servants quarters; Margery took the lower floor, and. for certain reasons, took the second
 For ten minutes there was no result. At the end of that time had finished two rooms and commenced on the blue boudoir. And here, on the top shelf of three cornered Empire cup board, with glass doors and spindle legs, found what I was looking for. Every article was, there. I stuffed a small package into my pocket and call ed the two girls.
 '"The lost is found,", stated calmly, when we were. all together in the library
 When did you lose anything?'' Edith demanded Do you mean to say, Jack Knox, that you brought us here to help you find suit of gaudy pajamas and pair of military brushes ?''
