l sat in my little room, looking at the
faded, torn wall paper and the miser'
able furnishings, l dissected the whole
thing, piece by piece. That man was
a criminal, I felt sure of it. He had
done something which as yet had not
been found out. His conscience was
hurting him. The thought of a crime,
weighing down upon his brain, was
driving him night after night out into
the open, to learn If possible If the
world had yet learned of his guilt.
Yes, I was sure of all that; but to
prove it was a different matter. A
criminal, forced to the wall, is a hard
person to deal with. l had nothing
by which a lead of attack might be
made. There was nothing that he
could be accused Of. There was only
one thing to do-wait and play spy.
That night, as the hours grew late,
1 sneaked into the hall and stealthily
approached the door. There, in the
shadow, just around the corner from
where a dingy hall light threw its
feeble rays against the overpowering
darkness, 1 knelt, hour after hour, lis
tening at the keyhole. But no word,
no sound, came from within. There
vas no movement from the man with

cate that he was suffering from the
thoughts of a crime. / went back to

that it would not be noticed. I was
willing, anyway, to take the chance.
He came into the room somewhat
wildly. His face was set, he seemed
nervous. Hurriedly he walked to the
