The Fugitive Witness.

Aroused from Its winter sleep. Da-
vid's country house was aglow with
good cheer. Gloria, her father. Doctor
Royce. and David and Lois had coma
up to play for little. to throw of the
family tragedy and the formal duties
Of their city life. and to forget them
selves boisterously In the open.
For men and women resting In the
shadow Of crime they behaved
strangely like children turned out In
the yard to play after rainy days
Imprisonment. They ran through the
house shouting hilariously to one an
other Us they found their skates and
wraps for trip to the frozen SWIM
ming pool. The dogs added greatly to
the excitement by loud barkings Of
"Come on OUT and by a remarkable
gift for getting In the way.
No one played harder than Gloria.
She was trying to convince the others
that she had put the mourning OF her
mind as well rs her body. She want
ed to find out what her people were
concealing from her. md why.
The Stafford family lark was soon
invaded by neighbors. A tobognnning

peared. There were no invitations or
only mumbled words. for ceremony

The life-saver thought she meant
that he was her husband. He thought
1t pity that so pretty girl should
have so much husband. But he did as
he was told and hurried Mulry ashore.
Gloria felt lonely and afraid when
the boat was gone. She wondered II
she could make the land. She did not
really care, her life was too sad. She
was beginning to droop and fail when
Royce appeared at her side and set
her hands on his strong shoulders. She
liked him better than she thought she
did. He swan magnifcently. He saved
her and she was glad to be saved.
When at last she staggered ashore
and her father embraced her, wet as
she was, she looked about for Mulry.
He was gone. The life-saver had re-
vived him md he had tottered away.
Gloria did not know whom he was
visiting. He was not In the hotel reg
listers. She did not know that he had
gone to his friends cottage, slammed
his clothes In his trunk and suitcase,
and returned North.
One Of the picturesque features Of
Palm Beach life Is the presence now
and then Of Seminole Indians, who
come up from the everglades to sell
baskets and other samples Of their
craft, rattlesnake skins. and trinkcts
Of various sorts. Among those who
stood offering bargains Of the sort were
the young chief who wanted to marry
Gloria and the old squaw whose horse
Gloria had tried to steal. They recog-
nixed her when they saw her wander
ing slowly along looking for Mulry.
Gloria paused and stared at them.
She did not recognize them at FIRST and
stopped to price a souvenir Of her cap
tivity. But she noted the wild glare
In the eye of the romantic peddler and
suddenly remembered her swarthy
suitor Of FIVE years ago. Her old fear
came back to her for the moment. She
started to escape. The chief clutched
her hand and compelled her to pause.
She was hardly reassured by his soft
words.
Don't be 'fraid. Nice squaw. nice
squaw."
She could think Of nothing to say.
He did the talking.

Gloria shook her head and sighed.
Tho chief sighed, too-with relief. He
spoke grandiosely. "All right. You

Gloria was almost as much embar-
raised BY this second proposal in the
Poinciana gardens as she had been by
the first In the everglades. She could
not imagine what to sny. The chief

advantage for time. But even money

the heavy breathing back OF him told
Mulry that his engine was about TO die.
He looked back and saw that
Gloria's car had taken wrong turn
and shot down another avenue. He
gave three silent cheses for himself.
Thus ended one Of the most blood
curdling rolling-chariot races since
Ben-uur's dny. Mulry paid his ex-
hnustcd man well and took the nearest
way to the cottnge where he was guest.

vanity and despair.
She found the pleasure paradise al
most the same.
A little more gorgeous, perhaps, but
all the gloomier for that. She had
come from the white winter Of the
North into the sudden July of Florida.
and her heart ached anew remembering
how love had bloomed In her life un.
der the tropical sun Of Freneau's eyes.
1t was like going over an old album of
souvenirs to revisit the scenes Of that
far-off yesterday. The same throngs
seemed to be dancing the same dances,
bounding through the same waves, still
slipping their tea under the palms in
the royal gardens Of the Poinciana.
She had almost forgotten her pur-
pose in coming here when she caught
sight Of Frank Mulry's broad back.
He was rolling along briskly. She
did not know that he had caught sight
of her first and made of in disgust
and amazement at her discovery Of
his new retreat.
She dared not run after him and
she could not keep pace with him. She
lost him in the maze Of the bazaars.
Later she saw him riding In one of
the rolling chairs propelled by dar-
kies on wheels-the familiar "afromo-
biles" Of Palm Beach.
Poor Mulry was winded by his speed
and he wanted to get to his hosts cot
tage. But he caught n glimpse of
Gloria. also chartering an automobile.
To his horror her automobile made
after his. He dared not put back to
his hotel. He ordered his driver to
turn down powered path and to give
him all the steam the black could af-
ford.
The motorman was vigorous, but the
passenger was heavy. Gloria was light,
but her African was weak. It was any
body's race with every prospect of n
spill for one Jockey or the other, since
the paths were filed with dawdling
strollers and the bicycle had come
back into fashion. Everywhere wom-

Gloria came crawling after. He was

He wondered II he would have to
cross the Atlantic and he regretted the
necessity Of landing In Europe with his
bathing suit and nothing else. He
was still at some distance from Europe
when he suddenly felt q twinge Of

Nobody heard him except Gloria, and
he placed no reliance In her.
She called to him, but he was past
answering. Gloria had been raised

stration alarmed her. She had not
counted on 30 huge barge to take In
tow.
She SET up u cry to shore. No one
hcnrd her. No one missed her except
one man. Doctor Royce was looking
for her. Tint was not strange. He
was almost always looking for her or
ut her. Pierpont did not know where
she was. David and Lois hnd no idea
Of her whereabouts. She was not
among the crowds on the beach.

and surrender to this young girl who
was stalking him with such relentless
stealth.
But he thought Of the money her fa-
ther had given to Freneau and he was
afraid he would have to give 1t up.
He thought Of his share In Freneau's
trickery and the ugly look 1t would
have In court. He beat his fat head
for some clever lie that would explain
everything gracefully, but no inspira-
tion came and he went to bed like a
spanked and supperless child.
The next morning Mulry looked out
