CHAPTER x.
A Prisoner.

Prisoner
"Alone at last r That was my first
feeling as sank into my easy chair to
collect my thoughts-alone with mil
lion dollars worth of diamonds-alone
on the sixth floor with monsieur oc-
cupying lawfully the fiat directly un-
der mine And what was | to do?
Obviously, the first thing was to
hide them, and since they'd been safe
once in the hyacinths l wasn't going to
tempt fate by changing the place. SO
put my fresh bunch in water, poked
the diamonds among the stems and
Threw the old bunch away. -,
Soon done-but my real problem lay
In barricading myself so that mon
sieur could not get in again. Remem-
Der, he had the use of the same fire
escape and dumh-waiter shaft, to say
nothing of the hall stairs-he could
come and go in the house as he
pleased
The dumb-waiter I counted out be-
cause / could easily wire up the catch
and make it impossible for anyone to
open the door from the shaft side
without actually breaking the door off
its hinges-a most unlikely thing for
monsieur to attempt
Fortunately, / kept a kit of tools in
the house-Im not one of your help

take the small chain-bolt that had been

hallside of the kitchen door Then l

he would have to break them off their
hinges to get at me that way.
The bathroom window didn't give
me much concern. The sash was stuck
fast by the last painting and l couldn't
raise it myself the glass was too thick
to be cut readily and didn't believe
monsieur would advertise himself to
the neighborhOod by breaking it. But
drove a couple Of nails above the
sash just for luck and then gave my
attention to the kitchen window.
Since he'd gone out that way, he'd
very likely try 1t TO come back by. The
glass was thin--he could cut it out
easily; he could even smash it and
come through so quickly that nobody

Ell Centre local interests are reaching
out for an eastward connection
At a Tucson conference with STATE
engineer Maddox there was sugges-
ton that the route be changed 10 the
costly Antelope bridge, Which through
flood now lacks approaches. It is
proposed that the ella be crossed on
the Gillespie dam. twenty miles north

west OF Phoenix and that Maricopa
county build 10 ella Bend. the state
then finishing TO the Yuma county
line. where Yuma will take up the
work to this point with federal as

This road would give Yuma better
access to Ajo- It is said to be through
a much better district for road max
ing and 70 be very little longer From
