The chauffeur had no intention of
remaining inactive outside while he
knew that something that interested
him was transpiring inside. He had
crept up by the side OF the house to
the window. But he could see little
and hear nothing.
A moment he strained every sense.
It was no use. He must devise some
other way. How could he get into

car, thinking II over. There he stood

From the Pullman allghted a widow,
in deep mourning. AS she got OF and
moved down the platform 1t was ap-
parent that she walked with a pro.

At the end Of the platform the chauf-

conner looked over the crowd hastily.
Suddenly he caught sight OF the face

He held the door open and she en-.

As she limped up the gravel walk
he watched her closely. She went to
the door and rang the bell and the

Del Mar was still sitting, thinking,
In the library.
"Mr. Del Mar" she inquired.
The voice was not exactly soft, and
Del Mar eyed her suspiciously. Was

The widow, too, evidently wished to
make no mistake. As she spoke, she
raised her hand. BY that simple &C

Mar had been waiting.
He extended his own left hand. On
the ring finger was another ring, bul

took the ring from her own finger

Walton. He was now trim chauf-

n In the library of his bungalow, Del
Mar was pacing up and down, now and
then scowling to himself, as though
there flashed over his mind stray recol.
lections of how some of his most cher.
ished plans were miscarrying.
Still, on the whole, he had nothing
y, complain of. For. a moment later
the valet entered with a telegram for
which he had evidently been waiting.
Del Mar seized ii eagerly and tore
open the yellow envelope. On the
blank was printed In the usual way
the following noncommittal message:
Washington, D. c., August IL, 1915.
Mr.. Del Mar:
What you request 10 coming. An.

Good" muttered Del Mar as he fin
ished reading. Strange, what a little
gold will do-when you know how to
dispose of It."
He smiled cynically to himself at the
sentiment.
At the little railroad station they
were quite proud Of the fact that at
least two of the four hacks had been
aSplaced already by taxicabs.
It was, then. with some surprise and
not Z little open Jealousy that they
saw Q new taxicab drive up and take
its stand by the platform.

stayed before his hut. for the glances

had been looking at
The new chauffeur got OF his seat.
Instead OF trying to brazen 1t out. he
walked over to the others who were
standing In a grogp waiting for the ap.

In his bungalow. now that Smith
had gone back again to New York and

to keep the important engagement he

Then with hasty word or two to

BY back ways so that even in the
glare Of automobile headlights he
would not be recognized. he made his
way TO Dodge Hall. As he saw The
house looming up in the moonlight he
put on his mask and approached car

a window noiselessly, turning the
catch as deftly as a housebreaker, and
climbed into the living room

SEE MOVE TOWARD OPENING UP THE TOWN IN
RECENT ACTION OF CHIEF HEALEY

knOwledged to be the owners of one
of the worst resorts on the North
Side, were in the mOrals~cOUTt again
yesterday. They demanded jury trials.
When Smith met Mrs. Metz a year
ago a partnership was formed which
was destined to give the police of the
East Chicago av. police station a lot
of trouble. The police say the rO-
nance started in morals court, where
Mrs. Metz appeared with her husband
as often as their hotel on North Clark
st. was raided. After many of these
meetings the couple elOped and set
tied down in a place which is known
as MetZ'S dry" saloon. Investigators
claim they have bought booze in this
place, but the police have never been
able to find any in their raids. This
dry saloon is located at 513 La Sale
st. It is a soft drink paTlOr where
women sit and solicit men. In the
rear a door opens into a passageway.
Next to it is another which leads into
the basement of SIS La Sale st. No.
515 is connected with SIT by many
doors and panels and on the three lots
are four buildings which the police
have raided nearly a hundred times
during the past year.
Mary Metz and David Smith have
appeared in the morals court on an
average of three times a month for
many months. During the year of
1914 the clerk of the municipal court
collected $4,000 in fines, which were
assessed by various judges against
the couple.
Recently they engaged a new law
yer. He is Max Kaufman, former law
partner Of Municipal Judge MahOney.
During the later part of May and
the early part of June the dry" sa-
loon was raided five times by the
police. Each time a jury trial was
demanded and granted. The cases
were transferred to Judge Mahoney
and the trial was set for June %.
