"A cynical friend told me the other

the estimator was careful to follow

back turned az usual TO the chamber

He dropped the periodical and
leaped In the air. From the direc-

which swelled into a screech.
The new man climbed upstairs in
frantic leaps, and started In 0e gen.

A half hour later, Coroner's Clerk
William Altman went down to the
morgue. BY this time. Tom Doherty
had become good and tired OF being
locked in. and was kicking at the
door.
He took the trouble to look up Es-
timator Travis to tell him that he'd
never get into the morgue again un-
