of tense depression which comes with the sudden departure Of drunkenness. He became defiant now. whereupon the police began to bully While they were trying to make Mrs. Moore ad. init that she had not seen Tommy North come up the stairs, detective sergeant put a sneering question to her
 "Well, who else could have done it? Who else has been here7"
 And the thrush of memory brought a little shriek from Mrs. Moore.
 "Mr. Wade-the gentleman who called tonightl" she cried. All at once her suspicious left the branded Mir. North. Mir.

 "Hay foOt--straw foot-one goes up and the other goes down" So he vanished from the vision of Mrs Moore. By similar devices he nego tiated the stretch Of hall carpet on the second Goor, and took the next flight. He was near his haven now his own room, third floor front.

The police turned on her. In a tumble of words and emotions, she told what she knew. NIT. Wade's late call, the high words, the fact that none had heard a sound from Captain Hanska's s room after Wade left the house-that was enough for the Coroner and the detectives. They packed Tommy North-sober, pale. but now thorough ly collected-into the patrol wagon, sent the hue and cry to the Curfew Club after Mir. Wade, put the house under guard, and called their days work done.
 And the rest of the Moore establish ment, having first received dreadful warning concerning the fate of ab- sconding witnesses, finished that un- easy night under the ministrations Of Rosalie Le Grange at 442.

CHAPTER II.
The Chief.


 Inspector Martin McGee, the middle aged solid executive of the New York detectives, sat in his businesslike of- ice running over the reports on the Hanska murder, now less than a cal endar day old but already the subject of those innumerable extras which the newsboys were shouting under his windows. Nothing in the formal doc uments before him served to give him any new light Lawrence Wade-that looked like the man. Wade was miss ing from the Curfew Club when the police arrived; however, through the good memories of a taxicab driver and a ticket seller. he had been traced to Boston and there arrested in the very act of engaging European passage.
 The formal documents in the Han ska case interested Inspector McGee less, a great deal less, than an infor- nal verbal report made that morning by the sergeant in command of the reserves.
 We didn't know nothing about her, Chief" he said, except that she had an order from you telling us to keep our hooks of her Forgot the name something French with a L-e behind 1t. It was all right, wasn't it?"
 Inspector McGee understood at once; and the information brought a little thrill. He had given only two such papers in his career; and the other was held by a man. So Rosalie Le Grange had bobbed up again-Rosa- lie Le Grange, trance, test and clair voyant medium, follower of a small half-criminal trade but friend of so- ciety against larger criminals. How euriously that woman had glanced in and out of his life, and what luck she had brought!
 As he bent over his desk in unac- customed meditation, the doorman brought a caTd-'Mme. Rosalie Le Granger-and behind him she ap- pea-ed.
 Wei, vclli" exclaimed Martin Mo Gee, rising as though to some great personage, back again. Say, you just couldn't keep out of big doings, could you? And how pretty you look -prettier and prettier all the time! What hauled you into the Hansks case7"
 T ain't in the Hanslsa case at ail." responded Rosalie Le Grange, answer ing his second question first. "at least not deep. Martin McGee." She flashed upon him her dimples. snapped at him her great gray eyes.
 Nearly everybody that's lived long enough in New York has had a murder or 8 burglary or something in the same block. It was bound to happen 10 me in time. It happened: and in- stead Of mihding my owh business like the rest, l butted straight in. When the reasons for thing get too tangled up for you aud me to follow, we stick a label on 1t an call it luck. Bu there" she checked herself. this is ;ast one of my platform tssDirationa.

 Perhaps five minutes later, Miss . Harding went upstairs for a handker chief. For a moment she was absent minded-a rare thing with her-sC that instead of turning on the second floor, where her room was situated she continued another flight and brought up, suddenly aware of her mistake, at the third-foor landing Something held her thcfe for a mo ment-the sound of high words from Captain Hanska's room Miss Hard ing paused longer than necessary. She was an honorable girl enough, but the most honorable of us pay instinctivC tribute to our curiosity.

 They had all stopped singing from very weariness of voice, and Mrs Moore and Professor Nol had retired to leave the young couples alone with their devices, when Mir.

He cast no more than one quick absent glance at the group by the piano: and the door closed behind him Within ten min. utes, the company" left and the young women went to their room. There was silence in the house.
 Silence until half past two o'clock and then Tommy North, who occupied the third floor front, came home from a stag smoker drunk.
 This was not the first time that he had returned, uncertain of tongue and fnnt. in the hnurs cf vice.
