AS he spoke, he took an automatic
from a drawer of a cabinet and thrust
it into his pocket. Then he went to
another drawer and took out several
sections of thin tubing, which seemed
to be made to fasten together as a

Following the directions that Mi

Craig led me into one of the toughest
parts of the lower West side.

stopping across the street from a
dingy Raines law hotel.
Pretty tough" objected. Are you

his notebook again.

The proprietor called a stout negro

Doctor Hayward had arrived and
had just finished taking the patients
pulse and temperature as our cab
pulled up.
Elaine was quite i'll indeed.
"Oh! I'm so glad to see YOU" she
breathed with an air of relief as Ken
nedy advanced
"Why-what is the matter?" asked
Craig anxiously.
|. Doctor Hayward shook his head du-
biously, but Kennedy did not notice
him, for, as he approached Elaine, she
drew from the covers where she had
concealed it a letter and handed it to
him
Craig took it and read:
You are sick this morning. To
morrow you will be worse. The next
day you will die unless you discharge
Craig Kennedy"
At the signature of the Clutching
Hand he frowned, then, noticing Doc
tor Hayward, turned to him and re-
peated his question, What is the mat
ter?"
Doctor Hayward continued shaking
his head. Il cannot diagnose her
symptoms" he shrugged.
There seemed to be faint odor, al
most as if of garlic, in the room 1t
was unmistakable and Craig looked
about him curiously, but said nothing.
AS he shifted, he moved impatiently
and his foot touched Rusty. under the
bed. Rusty whined and moved back
lazily. Craig bent over and looked
at him
whats the matter with Rusty?" he
asked as he sick, too?"
why, yes" answered Elaine, fol
lowing Craig with her deep eyes.
Craig reached down and gently
pulled the collie out into the room
Rusty crouched down close to the
floor. His nose was hot and dry and
feverish. He was plainly ILL.,
How long has Rusty been in the
room?" asked Craig.
"All night" answered Elaine. 81
wouldn't think of being without him
now"
May I take Rusty along with me?'
Craig asked finally.
Elaine hesitated. Surely" she said
at length, only be gentle with him
"Of course" he said simply. 81

cover the trouble from studying him
We stayed only a few minutes

He fairly leaped at me and felt
him examining my shoulder where
had been leaning on the wall. Some
thing on the paper had come of and
left mark on my shoulder. Craig
looked puzzled from me at the WALL
"Arsenic!" he cried
He whipped out pocket lens and
looked at the paper. This heavy,
fuzzy paper is fairly loaded with it,

Kennedy paced the room. Sudden

seemed to strike him

SYNOPSIS.

The New York police are mystified by a
series of murders and other crimes. The
principal clue to the criminal is the warn
ing letter which is sent the victims.
signed with a 'clutching hand" The lat
est victim of the mysterious assassin is
Taylor Dodge, the insurance president.
His daughter, Elaine, employs Craig Ken
nedy the famous scientific detective, to
try to unravel the mystery What Ken
nedy accomplishes is told by his friend
James, a newspaper man. By an ingen-
ious ruse Clutching Hand smuggles into
Elaine's home a flask of liquid air which
she supposes to be a package of valuable
papers. 1t blows open the safe in which
1t is placed, but Kennedy arrives in time
to prevent the robbery. The detective
narrowly misses death in his apartment
where Clutching Hand has placed a shot
gun so that it is fired by the electrical
connection formed when Kennedy places
his hands on a framed photograph of

the pictures and furniture, only it is

He gazed about keenly. Then he
took few steps to the window and
threw it open. AS he stood there he
took the parts of the rods he had been
carrying and fitted them together un-
til he had pole some eight or ten
feet long. At one end was a curious
arrangement that seemed to contain
lenses and a mirror. At the other
end was an eye-piece, as nearly as
could make out.
"What is that?" ! asked as he COM
pleted his work.
THAT? That is an instrument
something on the order of miniature
periscope," Craig replied, still at
work.

sourcefulness. He stealthily thrust
the mirror end of the periscope out
of the window and up toward the cor
responding window upstairs. Then he
gazed eagerly through the eye-piece
"Walter-look!" he exclaimed to
me.

chael, pacing up and down the room.
AS | looked at him nervously walk
ing to and fro, could not help ad-
hitting that things looked safe enough
and all right to me. Kennedy folded
the periscope up and we left our
room, mounting the remaining fight
of stairs.
In fifty-nine we could hear the
measured steps of the footman. Craig

tube, very carefully.
''Here, Walter" he said, pointing to
the little incision he had made, will
you take care of him."
Quickly Craig made one test after
another.

an unmistakable odor of garlic ig the
air which made me think OF what /

had scarcely recovered from the
surprise of Kennedy's startling reve-
lation when the telephone rang again.
Kennedy seized the receiver, thinking
evidently that the message might be
from or about Elaine.
But from the look on his face and
from his manner, could gather that,
although it was not from Elaine her.

THE PROBLEM.

Providing work for people out OF
employment is doing them the very
greatest service, because it is al
fording them an opportunity to
serve, There are no contradictory
truths, Every truth consists with
evcy other truth, and the thing that
is good for the unemployed, which
is work, is good, and the only thing
good for the merchant, the manu-
factnrer and the banker. These can
not successfully continue business
unless the largest number OF peo-
pie have employment, and hence
have some money to spend with
them As so often said in the News
