watched him go in silence. And it was as he opened the drawing-room window that Hugh called after him |:
 Do you like the horse Ellimans or the ordinary brand?" he asked. "Pll send you a bottle for that stiff neck of yours.'
 Very deliberately Peterson turned round.
 Don't trouble, thank you, Captain Drummond. I have my own reme- dies, which are far more efficacious."

Inside the Junior Sports club, Hugh Drummond was burying his nose in a large tankard of the ale for which that cheery pot-house was still fam ous. A waiter was arranging the first editions of the evening papers on table, and Hugh beckoned to him to bring one. Cricket, racing, the latest divorce case, and the latest strike-all the usual headings were there. And he was just putting down the paper, to again concentrate on his problem, when a paragraph caught his eye.
 STRANGE MURDER IN BELFAST
 "The man whose body was discov- cred in such peculiar circumstances near the docks has been identified as Mir James Granger, the confidential secretary to MT. Hiram Potts, the American multi-millonaire, at present in this country. The unfortunate victim of this dastardly outrage-his head, as we reported in our last nights issue, was nearly severed from his body-had apparently been sent over on business by Mir. Potts, and had arrived the preceding day. What he was doing in the locality in which he was found is mystery.
 "We understand that Mir Potts, who has recently been indisposed, has re- turned to the Carlton, and is greatly upset at the sudden tragedy.
 thor will shortly obtain a clue, though the rough element in the locality where the murder was committed presents great difficulties. It seems clear that the motive was robbery, as all the murdered mans pockets were rifled. But the most peculiar thing about the case is the extraordinary care taken by the murderer to prevent the identifi cation of the body. Every article of clothing. even down to the murdered mans socks, had had the name torn out and it was only through the crim- the inner breast-pocket of A-r. Grang- CTS coat that the police were enabled to identify the body"
 Drummond slid down the paper on his knees. and stared a little dazedly at the clubs immortal founder.
 Holy smoke! laddie" he mur- mured, that man Peterson ought to be on the committee here. Verify, believe, he could galvanize the staff into some semblance of activity"
 Did you order anything, sir?'s waiter paused beside him.
 "No,, murmured Drummond, "but I will rectify the omission. Another large tankard of ale"
 The waiter departed, and Hugh picked up the paper again.
 "We understand he murmured

 Toby possessed V. O., and good one--for there are grades of the V. O., and those grades are appreciated to a nicety by the recipients brother officers if not by the general public. The show would fit Toby like a glove.

 The smile broadened to a grin; surely life was very good. And then the grin faded, and something sus- piciously like frown took Its place. For he had arrived at the Carlton, and reality had come back to him.

 "You needn't" returned Hugh. up to date you have justified my fondest expectations. And as further proof of my good will, would like you to get me a trunk call-2 x Goring."
 A few minutes later he was in the telephone box.

 He hung up the receiver and stepped out of the box.

 Up to date in such cases have al- ways shot the editor" murmured Algy Longworth. Come and feed"
 You're so helpful, Algy A per feet rock of strength. Do you want a job?'
 What sort of job?" demanded the other suspiciously.
 "Qh! not work, dear old boy. D-n it. man-you know me better than that, surely!"
 People are so funny nowadays" returned Longworth gloomily. "What is this job?'
 Together the two men strolled into | tit anu lOllS dlitT lllc cheese had been finished. Algy Long worth was still listening in silence to his companion.
 My dear old bean,'' he murmured ecstatically as Hugh finished, ''my very dear old bean. I think it's the most priceless thing I ever heard. Enroll me as a member of the band. And, incidentally, Toby Sinclair is running round Tn circles asking for trouble. Let's rope him in"
 "Go and find him this afternoon, Algy." said Hugh rising. And tell him to keep his mouth shut I'd come with you. but 1t occurs to me that the wretched Potts, bathed in tears at the Carlton, is in need of sympathy. So long, old dear You'll hear from me in a day or two"
 Drummond sauntered along Pall- Mall He had told LOngworth more or less on the spur of the moment, knowing that gentleman's capabilities to a nicety. Under a cloak of as- sumed flippancy he concealed an iron nerve which had never yet failed him; and, in spite of the fact that he wore an entirely unnecessary eye glass, he could see further into a brick wall than most of the people who called him a fool.
 It was his suggestion of telling Toby | Sinclair that caused the smile. For it had started a train of thought in Drummond's mind which seemed to

 Hugh imprisoned the little hand in his own huge ones, and smiled reas- suringly.
 Don't worry. little girl" he said. "Years ago I was told by an old gypsy that I should die in my bed of old age and excessive consumption of in- valid port. As matter of fact, the cause of my visit was rather humorous. They abducted me in the middle of the night, with an ex-sol- dier of my old battalion, who was, regret to state, sleeping off the effects of much indifferent liquor, in my rooms. They thought he was your American millionaire cove, and the wretched Mullings was too drunk to deny it. In fact, I don't think they ever asked his opinion at all." Hugh grinned reminiscently. "A pathetic spectacle"
 "Oh but splendid" cried the girl little breathlessly. "Tell me, where Is the American nOw?'
 Many miles out of London" an swered Hugh q think we'll leave it at that. The less you know, Miss Benton, at the moment-the better"
 Have you found out anything" she demanded eagerly.
 Hugh shook his head.

 "The brute '" she cried, very low "How I hate him!" Then with a sudden change of tone she looked up at Drummond. q don't know whether it's worth mentioning she said slowly, "but yesterday afternoon four men came at different times to The Films. They were the sort of type one sees tub-thumping in Hyde Park, all except one, who looked like re- spectable workingman."
 Hugh shook his head.
 Don't seem to help much, does 1t? Still, one never knows. Let me know anything like that in future at the club"
