n THE day that Hugh was

rived in Nice early in the

Before a house in the Rue Rossetti
he paused, and ascending to a nat on
the third floor, rang the bell. The
door was slowly opened by an elderly,
rather shabbily- -attired Italian.

"Well, Cataldi!" exclaimed the we'll
dressed adventurer cheerily. I'm

had offered the old man a cigar.
NOW the real reason I've called X

there that night. What do you know
about it?"
Nothing" the old fellow declared
promptly. "Since that night I've
earned an honest living. I'm Il waiter
in a cafe in the Avenue de Ia Care"
Now, tell me, Giulio, what do you
know about the affair at the Villa
Annette? The boy Henfrcy went there
t. demand OF Mademoiselle how his
father died. She refused to tell him.
Angry words arose-ard he shot her.
