You will join us, doctor?' Judge Crane asked. leading the way to the dining room.
 Thanks. no," pr. Rice answered. q really must go home. I was out all night and I have something to do this afteraon so I am going to catch a few wnks of sleep. One thing I'd like to have you people do. If there are any more developments in the case, win you let me know what they are. And if l can help, will you promise to call me in?''
 "That's ar easy promise" Ballin said "All I hope is that when we shout for you, it won't be to extract few bull lets from us."
 They walked to the front door with the doctor, and after he had passed down the steps, Ballin called to Tracy.
 Nothing doing yet" the chauffeur re- turned with a shake of his head. Not a sign Of life.'

 You mean that she was cut off?" Frances asked, a cup poised in the air.
 T don't quite understand" the girl returned.
 Well, maybe I'm taking an enlarged view of things, but what strikes me as queer is that Red Larkin should have anyone around him that has a taint of traitor in their make up. What is this Annie going t. get out of it? She'd be letter off if she played fair with Red Larkin."
 "Naybe," Frances returned after si- lence "But then, we don't know any thing about Red Larkin, or the girl either, for that matter, A woman will do any thing for the man she loves, but let man kill her love and she will do any thing to hurt him. Personally I think we have a great asset in our friend An nie. Never trust a woman unless you have to, then trust her to the end of the limit"
