him. They had another elevator-man.
Nothing was said in his hearing. And
Laneham himself did not speak again
Then he explained that he only wished to
dig about a little by himself on the floors
above and below.
sd like to get the stair and elevator
connections clearer in my mind" he said.
"There seems to be some irregularity on
the tenth, at any rate"
He insisted, too, on being allowed to
go alone; what was there that could harm
him?
n the modern skyscraper apartment
house, one common stairway is called for
under the law. But it is not to be con-
fused with the little private flights of
stairs which, inside the big duplex apart
ments, connect the first and second floors.
In bare fire-proof "well" of its own, this
necessary legal stairway mounts from
floor to floor beside the elevator-shaft.
And it's own ever-closed smoke-tight doors
give it access to every floor. But it is
only an emergency exit; and, save by the
house service, it is practically never
used.
But the Doctor used it now. He de-
scended first to the floor below.
Under the law, a stair-well light should
have been burning at every floor. Far
beneath him in that narrow shaft one was
glimmering, even as another glimmered
far above. But about him all was shadow.
He found the door to the eighth-hoor
corridor, opened it, and looked out. On
the other side an elevator shot smoothly
up, with its fabricated fck-d-lick. But
whatever he looked for, obviously he did
not find it there He shut the door,
turned back, and started to mount
again.
About him on all sides there was almost
the same dark and creeping silence of
those shadowy Fisher rooms. His nerves
We're still sufficiently shaken to make him
believe, at times, that the echo of his
footsteps on the slaty treads was the
sound of other footsteps following him.
He would not have owned it, but he was
glad enough when, at the tenth floor, he
could once more feel for the door and let
himself out into the good hallway light
again.
Here, in fact, he found at least the r-
regularity of corridor arrangement that
he had been looking for. The very fact
that the Fisher apartment was duplex
that is, having rooms on two f1oOrs,-
and the fact that it had access to the ele-
vators only on the ninth floor, left this
end of that tenth-foor corridor a blind

yet, at any rate, d. Hope. Wen wait
and see what happens"
She shook her head as if completely
unable to understand.
"Wel, at least, we know that we've
taken another STEP" she said. First it
was Jimmy; then Maddalina; and now
these elevator beasts. Doctor, could it
have been they Who"
But the Doctor put up protesting
hand.
Its eleven O'clock" he said "Noth-
ing more can happen tonight; and you're
both too wrought up to sleep. As your
physician as well as your boss prescribe
a ride in the limousine for all of us
together"
And a few minutes later they were on
their way to the park, Collet, the Doctors
chauffeur, driving them.
Nothing more can happen tonight"
The Doctor was destined to remember
that remark later.
THEY talked very little. 1t was enough
simply to sit quietly and try to forget
things The wind was again snow-laden.
And as it swirled about them, gust on gust
it seemed gradually to carry away all the
obsessions of the day as on cooling
streams. They would sleep now-the
Doctors prescription had been good
And, coming out at the Fifty-ninth Street
gate, they started homeward
They had reached the Circle when they
found themselves stalled in a crush of
after-theater traffic. There was the usual
startingand-stopping tangle of other
limousines and taXis and landaulets D.
Hope was looking out of one window, and
Willings out of the other. But he, at
least, was hardly conscious of looking at
eyes We're really halted. They had fallen
upon the face of young man in the
landauet drawn alongside of him. His
first thought was that he had seen that
face somewhere before his next that in
any case he would remember it for long
time to come.
1T was fine face, good face, face
palely and aquilinely and slenderly intel
lectual. But in every feature there was
a kind of haggardness, and in the eyes a
scared hollowness that sent Wilings' hand
to the Doctors knee to draw his attention
too. But just then the landaulet shot
ahead again.
"What was it?"
"Oh, nothing Only poor devil that
| guess has had has smash, all right"
In the gray carr"
"Ies; was thinking he'd make case
for you.
And then, next moment, their own car
came abreast again.
"Why," the Doctor whispered, "its
Glasbury."
"Glasbury?"
"The playwright, one of the tenants
who moved out of the Casa Reale after
the murder. And he has had his smash,
no doubt of that"
At that instant Miss Hope caught their
voices and turned They could see at
once that she too had recognized the oc-
cupant of the gray ear, and into her face
came look which, had it been anyone
but d. Hope, they would have sworn was
look of fear.
"Who-who is it?" she asked. Her
voice was barely audible.
"Why," said the Doctor, "you know

moved. Indeed, so little attention had
of late been given to that unused cul-de-
sac by the Casa Grande management that
section of wired glass that had been
broken out of one of the elevator doors
was left hanging and unmended.
The hole allowed Laneham to put his
hand through and open the gate And,
not knowing himself what he expected to
find, he did it. Leaning far over the shaft,
he looked down. Nothing to be learned
there, though descending car stopped
in the other shaft as if to observe him
wonderingly, stopped again on the floor
below, and then dropped on to the bottom
Raising his head, he looked upward.
Merely from the light of the wind
chased moon, a thin tiickering line showed
the position of the roof scuttle. 1t was
this elevator, then
FROM behind him came the sound of
swiftly opened door. With snap of
the switch button, the little hallway was
in absolute darkness. And through it,
behind Laneham, while he still struggled
to regain his balance, came rush of leap
ing feet. A clutching hand spread itself
upon his mouth. Another broke the grip
of his own left hand upon the upright of
the shaft. And then the whole weight of
that unknown, silent, furious attacker fell
upon him and heaved him outward.
He had no time to turn, to resist, to
catch himself. He threw his left arm
back. 1t touched clothing of some sort,
which instantly was torn away Then it
struck the other upright, tried to hold to
it, slipped down, slipped more, and slipped
again, as his feet vainly plunged and
fought to catch the edge of the floor again.
Through it ALL as he hung there, his ears
caught a kind of painting, crying laugh
He heard that stairway door close again.
He even heard an unknown hand deftly
putting the inside latch upon it.
The sharp metal was now cutting him
to the finger joints. His body had come
to have a weight of tons. His wrist
seemed twisting off. Yet, with the clutch
of desperation, he held on for another mo-
ment, while once more he threw himself
jerkingly upward. And at that last mo-
ment his left foot found the floor again.
Then his right heel caught. He pulled
himself gradually, dizzily up, rolled him
self inward, and was safe.
And in that nights story one more
chapter, the last at the Casa Grande, had
come to an end.
Laneham found Willings at the Fisher
outer hall; and. still gasping, he told him
all that was necessary to tell.
The young mans nerves, strained to
the breaking-point, seemed ready to
snap. He was for immediate action.
"Lets get McGloyne-have him Jail
the whole lot-the black devils-gad! to
think you might be crumpled up at the
bottom of that shaft this minute It's
horrble"
But the Doctor laid restraining hand
on his arm.
"Not word to McGloyne," he said.
"lm not even going to see him. | don't
want him to know about this, under any
circumstances. I'm all in and ready for
bed, and so are you. Come on.
AT 300 they found McGloynes two pa
trolmen, the two who had been sent
for Jimmy, still on guard. But message

The city school hoard will reorganize
for the new year at o'clock Monday
afternoon when A. Carson Stamm, one
OF the newly-elected members will
likely be chosen president 10 succeed
President Harry A. Boyer.
The board postponed the session
from the original hour 2:30. in order
TO attend the funeral of Captain Henry
~. Swartz, the attendance officer. The
present members of the board met two
OF the new members last evening while
two of the retiring members said
good-by. Mr.. Stamm and Robert y.
Endcrs were guests. George w. Ken
nedy, in an impressive little talk. gave
the board farewell. Mr. Kennedy has
been an ardent advocate of the safety
first idea in the schools and through
out practically all of the ten years of
his service as director he has urged
hre drills and similar precautions for
the youngsters. President Harry A.
Boyer briefly thanked the fellow mem
bers Tor their support and co-opera-
| tion.
AT the suggestion of DIR. +. F.
Downes, city superintendent. the board
ordered the printing of several hun
dred information blanks bearing on
the continuation school regulation of
the new child labor law. These will
he sent to employers of youngsters
with view to obtaining Il census and
learning how the law can best be ap-
piled.
A request by Samuel r. Boyer.
foreman in the Harrisburg Boiler and
Manufacturing company to organize
class of youngsters in applied me-
chanics was referred to the teachers
committee. Mr.. Boyer asked per-
mission to use a room in the Tech
nical High school for four nights each
week.
Miss Edna NJ. Peters was formally
retired as a school teacher upon the
advice of the medical examiners. In
a report of the school boards financial
condition to date, Treasurer George
! w. Mcllhenny stated that there arc
balances in the various funds totaling
! S362. 2.331.29.
The city school board. literally
speaking, isn't so very favorable to
this peace at any price stuff.
The board went on record effectively
to that effect last evening at the final
session of the directors ror the present
| year when it authorized Secretary u.

size of the check the district is to get

old rental figures still held. Anyway,
he sent his check for seven and u half.
