bomb and the letter which Craig had
taken from Elaines desk.
AS Craig pointed out the resem-
blances with a pencil my amaze
ment gradually changed into
comprehension and comprehension
into conviction. The meaning of it all
began toEdawn on me.
The writing was identical. There
were no differencesi
While we were locked in the secre-
tarys office Bennett and Elaine we're
continuing their chat ON various social
topics. Suddenly, however, with a
glance at the clock, Bennett told Elaine
that he had an important letter to die
tate and that 1t must go off at once.
She said that she would excuse him
few minutes, and he pressed but
ton to call his secretary.
OF course, the secretary did not ap-
pear. Bennett left his Office, with
some annoyance, and went into the ad-
joining room, the door to which Ken
nedy had not locked.
He hesitated a moment, then opened
the door quietly. To his astonishment
he saw Kennedy, the secretary and
myself apparently making a close ex-
animation Of the typewriter.
Gliding, rather than walking back
into his own office, he closed the door
and locked 1t. Almost instantly fear
and fury at the presence of his hated
rival, Kennedy, turned Bennett, as it
were, from the Jekyll of a polished
lawyer and lover of Elaine into an in
sanely jealous and revengeful Mr..
Hyde.
With look of intense horror and
loathing Elaine watched him slowly
change from the composed, calm, in
tellectual Bennett she knew and re-
spected into a repulsive, mad figure of
man.
And his long, sinewy hand slowly
twisted and bent until he became the
personal embodiment OF the Clutching
Hand.
As Elaine, transfixed with terror,
watched Benefits astounding meta
morphosis, he ran to the door leading
to the outer office and hastily locked
that also.
Then, with his eyes cleaning with
rage and his hands working in murder
GUS frenzy, he crouched nearer and
nearer, toward Elaine.
She shrank back, screaming again
and again in terror.
He was the Clutching Hand.

He did not finish the sentence.
Aunt Josephine had already begun to

For a moment or two Craig and
Elaine hooked at each other, neither
saying word, each wondering just
what was in the others mind.
Craig cleared his throat, the obvious
manner Of covering up his emotion.
Elaine" he said at length, dropping
the recent return to Miss Dodge" for
the moment, Elaine, is there any
truth in this mornings newspaper re-
port of-of you?"
She had dropped her eyes. But he
persisted, taking a newspaper clipping
from his pocket and handing 1t to her.
Her hand trembled as she glanced
over the item:
SOClE Y NJ ESs
Dame Rumor Is connecting the
name Of Miss Elaine Dodge, the
helress, with that Of Perry Ben
nett, the famous young lawyer.
The announcement Of an engage
ment between them at any time
would not surprise.
Elaine read no farther. She handed
back the clipping to Kennedy. AS her
eyes met his she noticed his express
sion OF deep concern, and hesltated
with the reply she had evidently been
just about to make.
Still, as she lowered her head, it
seemed to give silent confirmation to
the truth Of the newspaper report.
Kennedy said nothing, but his eyes
continued to study her face.
He suppressed his feelings with a
great effort then, without word,
bowed and left the room.
Walter" he exclaimed as he re-

An hour or 80 later, Elaine, whose
mind was now in whirl from what
had happened, decided to make a call
on her lawyer and the confdant OF her
father, Perry Bennett.
AS Elaine entered his private office.
Bennett rose to greet her effusively
and they exchanged a few words.
II mustn't forget to thank you for
those lovely roses you sent me-" she
exclaimed at length. "They were
beautiful, and / appreciated them ever
80 much"
A moment later Bennett led the
c0nversation around until he found an
to make tactful allusion
to the report Of their engagement in
the morning papers.
He had leaned over, and now at
tempted to take her hand. She with
drew 1t, however. There was some
thing about his touch which, try as
she might, she could not like. Was 1t
mere prejudice or was It her keen
woman's intuition?
