thoughts few ahead. Ahead and
backward. He came to his con-
clusion with an intake OF the
breath that might have indicated
pain.
"I've got bit Of news" he jerked
at the Inspector.
"What?" demanded Dolan.
THE girl who owns this chain Is
dead. / want all the men you can
give me to find her body"
The Washington times., 1920-09-19
CHAPTER XI.
A LoVs Token.

INSPECTOR DOLAN was sitting
at his desk, his attention mo-
- mentarily diverted from the
sheaf of reports before him. He
was holding the silken envelope
containing the gem-studded hair
necklace.
.'The girl ioho Otons this chain Is
dead" Sorran had flung at him and
had gone away without word OF
explanation, with the excuse that
he was only theorizing and was
probably wrong. That, Of course.
was all nonsense, reflected the In
spector. II Sorran was theorizing
he. was probably right.
Inspector Dolan was uneasy. He
looked at the growing pile OF d.
gested reports with something OF
impatience. Those reports showed
his own vast machinery at work.
They gave particulars Of everyone
who had been in the hotel at the
moment OF the Princes arrival, OF
every one who had left the hotel
since that moment and where he
or she had gone. The machinery
was perfect. But the Inspector had
already begun to suspect that 1t
would prove inadequate.
From his own point OF view 1t
was OF paramount Importance that
he should first recover the odd ten
million dollars worth Of percious
stones. And yet the Inspector In
his heart of hearts had bee. wholly
convinced by Sorran's hint that the
mechanism Of the whole brilliant
coup had its hub in the apparently
unreasonable murder.
His eye fell again on the silken
envelope in his hand.
IL Sorran was right and the girl
who had owned 1t was. dead, the
corpse was bound to be reported
soon. The significance OF her death
could be dealt with later. In the
meantime, how had Sorran deduced
az much Dy q mere examination OF
the necklace?
He removed the necklace FROM
the envelope. His trained eve at
once noted the irregularity OF the
gems-remember that Sorran
had given his news after a pro-
longed examination OF the necklace
he drew the obvious inference. He
returned the necklace to its
envelope and pressed an electric
button.
Take this to walters, and ask
him to decide IT." he said to the
man who answered the bell.
To himself, he added "If Sor-
ran will work in the dark, he must
take the consequences"
While he was waiting for the
cipher experts report on the neck
lace, he turned to the sheaf OF re-
ports from Lester, the plain clothes
man, whose terrain was the steel
walled suite itself One item
stood out from the others. "Tele-
phone tapped from room 71S. Dou-
BILE switch enabling conversation
to be held with Prince and to inter-
cept all calls to Prince"
Inspector Dolan looked at the
plan of the hotel. Room number
718 was in the same corridor as
the suite and diagonally opposite
it. Next he consulted the hotel list
to find the occupant OF number 7lS.
Miss Rosemary Wilding, East
Pennacook, Conn"
The name itself meant nothing to
the Inspector. He turned to the
alphabetically indexed report from
Hall, the detective whose work be-
gan outside number 727.
"Wilding, Rosemary, Miss, East
Pennacook, Conn. Room number

phoned his report 10 headquarters.
Within thsee minutes his message
was transmitted 10 Inspector Dolsn,
and. by a standing order, TO David
Sorran.
Sorrsn received the message In
his own rooms and hurried imme-
diately TO the morgue. He arrived
before the police doctor had left.
Sorran explained his identity TO
the doctor. which was confirmed by
the superintendent, whereupon Sor-
ran, begging the doctor TO walt a
few minutes longer, obtained per
mission TO enter tho morgue Itself.
Then he caught his breath sud
denly. For a moment he thought
with a more than professional pang
OF anxiety that his theory had been
falsified by the crude fact before
him. A more careful scrutiny, how
ever, showed him that this was not
SO. He left the morgue, yelling his
satisfaction from the doctor and
the superintendent.
The doctor agreed to answer Sor-
rams questions.
"How long has she been deadF
was the first question.
DIFFICULT to say" answered the
doctor. Il have only made a cur
sorry examination. ] don't think
drowning was the cause OF death"
"Violence?"
81 think not. The body was very
emaciated. We shall probably be
able to say definitely at the post
mortem."
Sorran left the point and went to
another.
ANY Identification marks?"
81 have Just examined the cloth
ing, which is OF a surprisingly fine
texture. II is marked In several
places Rosemary Wilding."
Thanks, very much" said Sor-
ran, whereupon the doctor with
final word to the superintendent
hurried back to bed.
Sorran chatted with the superin-
tendent long enough to gain his
confidence. On Sorran's advice he
made a directly personal report by
telephone to INSPECTOR Dolan. Sor-
ran heard him tell his chief that
the clothing was marked Rose
mary Wilding."
Then he left the morgue and
stopped at the nearest telephone
station.
He rang up his sister, doctor
with rising reputation. who had
lost none OF her iemininity in the
pursuit OF her profession.
Sorry to disturb you, Violet,
he said into the receiver. "lt's not
a case for you, but for me-David.

sister sleepily. 81 mark 1t S-O-R-

81 had an idea you might marx

mo At home we used each to

to put the full name"
Thanks, awfully, Violet" said
Sorran. "Frightfully sorry to dis
turb you. Goodnight
Sorran replaced the receiver and
left the call office.
"Poor old inspector" he mused.
"It's not quite fair to him in way,
but It will be the best thing for him
in the end. Wonder what he's do
ing now"
At that moment, did Sorran but
know 1t, Inspector Dolan was hold
ing a telephone conversation with
the chief OF the East Pennacook
police station.

NORMAL UNIVERSITY
(Las Negas.l

The report has gone out ovel
the state that a number of stu
dents have left Las Vegas be-
cause they were unable to secure
the proper roominS facilities. This
is mistake. When summer schoo
opened the townspeople had NJ
idea that it would be so large ant
Its needs so great and consequent
ly only a few rooms were offet ed
but when students threatened &c
leave because they were not find
ing proper housing facilities, he
citizens offered more rooms than
could be titled.
This past week has been one of
1ollity at the normal university,
since on Monday morning the en-
rollment reached a thousand and
more students.
On Friday the Commercial club
gave a picnic in Gallinas canyon
to the students, faculty and cili-
zens in recognition of the record
breaking attendance at the normal
university. A train of eleven
coaches crowded to the pla ef0rlns
carried students and citizens to
one of the most picturesque can
yons to be found anywhere in the
west, where mountain elm birg

the day. Every student was given
a lunch by the officers of the
Commercial club.
John V. Conway, assistant SUI
perintendent of public instruction,
visited the normal on Thursday
and addressed packed opera

interest.
