West OF the bungalow where Mildred
Deery lived, that young woman was
terrified by the electrical storm that
pervaded the whole mountain section
Gordon did not call on the telephone
that night as was his custom and she
was disappointed. but concluded that
the storm put the line out Of order
The first she knew that anything had
happened to Gordon was shortly after

his master and that when he returned
to the spot Gordon had disappeared.
Fearing his master had been caught
in the cyclone Steve had hurried back
to the mansion and searching parties
were sent out. They worked until
late In the night without success. On
the chance that Gordon might be at

telephone between the mansion and
the bungalow was out of order) Steve
had driven there In the car to make
inquiries.

Hurriedly informing her mother OF

outside the doorsill she saw a piece OF
paper under a stone. She seized it and
read the note Gordon had written to
her on the first night of his captivity.

The Confession.

Burke was a persistent man, and
he had set himself to getting the muir
derer of Griggs. Fooled in his efforts
thus far by the opposition Of Mary,
he now gave himself over to careful
thought as to a means of procedure
that might offer the best possibilities
of success. His beetling brows were
drawn in frown of perplexity for
full quarter of an hour, while he rest
ed motionless in his chair, an unlight-
ed cigar between his lips. Then. at
last, his face cleared; a grin of sat-
isfaction twisted his heavy mouth.

IT'S cinch it'll get 'im!" he rum

He pressed the button-call and or
dered the doorman to send in Cassidy
When the detective appeared a min
ute later. he went directly to his sub
ject with a straightforward energy
usual to him in his work.
Does Carson know we've arrested
the Turner girl and young Gilder?"
And, when he had been answered in
the negative: cor that we've got
Chicago Red and Dacey here?"
NO" Cassidy replied. He hasn't
been spoken to since we made the
collar. He seems worried" the
detective volunteered.
Burke's broad jowls shook from the
force with which he snapped his jaws
together.
Burke Reflected.

regarded Cassidy speculatively. do

Of. After he gets in here, l want you

and Carson will see them taken in.
The fact Of their being there win set

Burke reflected for a moment. and
then issued the final directions for the
execution Of his latest plot.

that a striking likeness to our simian
ancestors is seen after the early
formative stages of life are passed
but the Sumatran elephants appear
to retain their ancestral marks dur

this may be taken as an indication
that, comparatively speaking, but a
short time has elapsed since they
were a race of real mammoths.
The elephant baby that is now at

sessed any means of handing down

There was another whose spirit was

once again he was beaten at his own

against the clever Interpretation of

had no defense to offer. He did not
care to meet her gaze just then, since
he was learning to respect her as one
wronged, where he had regarded her
hitherto merely as of the flotsam and
Jetsam of the criminal class. So he
avoided her eyes as she stood by the
window regarding him quizzically. In
a panic of confusion quite new to him

the button on his desk.

But. as It is to-day. it offers a
startling proof of the persistence of
heredity through hundreds of thou
sands of years. It is only an exag-
gerated example of what occurs ev-
erywhere in the life history of the
globe. One of the strangest facts of
natural history is that every animal
in the earliest stages of its life, while
its body Is still in embryo, bears the
most astonishing resemblances to the
earlier types from which the principle
Of evolution has developed It. This
is true of man, who. before he has
taken the form of a human infant, can
hardly be distinguished from an en-
bryonic ape or monkey.
