 Not as far as we can discover" said the constable. There ain't no disorder about the place and the safe hasn't been busted, as far as I can see. l ain't made any regular inyes- tigation, being as this is government property"
 Has no one any Idea where the postmaster is?" I asked.
 That's just what we've been trying to find out. Jim, here, as soon as We found Rouser wasn't here, went up to the Widow Smiths, where he boards. Thought maybe he'd just overslept or something like that. or maybe was sick. But Mrs. Smith went up and looked Tn his room and come down and said he hadn't been home all night"
 Yes" interrupted Jim, and what's more, she said it was nothing unusual for him not to come home. There was lots and lots of nights recently when he didn't show up. She had no idea where he spent his nights. She's a woman that minds her own business

 What are you going to do about keeping the office open2" I asked, much puzzled over this new mystery How wished for Davis, Mystery seemed to be piling on mystery with every step I took Beyond the one conviction I had that Hugh Crandall was in some way to blame for 1t all. saw nothing that would help me in my undertaking
 We've arranged about that We've sent for Jennie Cox to come over and take charge. She always takes hold when Charlie Rouser wants to take day or halliday off She knows the combination of the safe and the money drawer. and has been sworn in as spe- cial assistant. She'll know what to do and who to notify
 Tt may interest you to know that Post Office Inspector Davis will be out here tonight" I told them. q left him in New York last night, and he promised to JOln me here.
 Suspicion flashed into the faces of all my auditors.
 Maybe that's why Rouser has dis appeared" suggested the constable Hes been spending a lot of money lately, Rouser has. Maybe he knew the inspector was coming and was short in his accounts
 He couldn't have known it." I pro tested. "The inspector himself didn't know he was coming here until late yesterday afternoon, and there isn't any way possible that the postmaster could have been advised of his com ing"
 The arrival of the substitute official diverted the conversation. Miss Cox, an unimaginatiye, unattractive wom- an of thirty, in most matter-of-fact way entered the building and took charge.
 The first thing" she said as she calmly hung up her hat and coat, lis for all you men to get out of here so that 1 can sort the mail"
 Even the constable moved toward the door, impelled by the authority in her tone and his own respect for gov ernment property. l determined not to be routed so easily It seemed to me that the occasion afforded me an excellent opportunity. not to solve the mystery of the missing postmaster, but to work out one Of my own pug zles-who It was that had rented Lock Box IT.
 Miss Cox" I said, "as personal friend of Post Office Inspector Davis, who Is to join me here in a few hours in connection with an important mat ter, and for your own sake as well, would suggest that you should keep at least two of us here as witnesses. This Is government property. The postmas- ter has disappeared and some of the governments property may be miss ing.
