 "Ah, Monsieur. we have been en- gagged in a bit of comedy, Pardon us if we have deceived you. It was who conducted the investiga- ton of your affair. disguised as For neau. and 1t was the agent for For neau disguised as JeQ Lequex who confessed to your robbery and took a mock sentence of Imprisonment under an arrangement with the court, . |, We did not find. then. the thief who opened the safe to your apartment"
 The Marquis regarded the Prefect of Police with an amazed expression, hls lips parted, his eyes wide.
 Then, Monsieur" he stammered, you have discovered neither the thief nor the necklace"
 "Ah, yes," replied M. Jonquelle fin the modulated voice of one who bids another adieu. We have discovered both"
 He took a mass of jewels out Of his waistcont pocket and handed them to the Marquis.
 'I found these in the bouquet of orchids which you were sending to Mme. Zirtenzoff. May I trouble you to present them to Madame la Mar quise when she shall return from America tomorrow"

GO ON WITH THE STORY

Tt now occurred to Forneau tha this robbery had been committed b. thieves of Paris. who were accus toned to enter any building whicf they were able to get into, and tt search any apartment that they hap pened to find open" continued M Jonquelle. a
 But the Marquis reminded For neau that the person committing thi, 7 robbery had brought with him { piece of paper from the basement that mere thieves entering on the chance of finding some valuables would not have this precaution.
 This theory pleased Forneau, and he adopted every excellent suggestion which the Marquis was able to make But he ventured to wonder from what source the thief had been able to obtain the combination to the safe since it was known only to Mime. la Marquise.
 The Marquis was again able to in- dicate valuable suggestion. Women, he ventured to suggest, had always the same habits. They did not trust their memories for anything that re- quired an accuracy of numbers. The Marquis would have somewhere this memorandum written down. He sug- gested that Forneau make search of her writing table.
 ITO their surprise they found the lock to the drawers of this table broken, and among some papers has tily turned over, at the back of one of these drawers, a small book with a red leather cover. On the last page, in pencil. was precisely the same memorandum which the Marquis had picked up on the slip of paper under the door-the combination to the safe of the Marquise de Chantelle, and following the four columns of four figures.
 'aThe problem which now presented itself was to discover what employe in the building could have written this memorandum. Forneau, and the Marquis had before them the hand writing. With the histories and as sociates of the valet, the concierge and the older employees they were fa- miliar, and were convinced that 1t was not one of these persons; but there were other employees in this apartment and the problem was how to obtain specimens of their hand writing without mourning suspicion. In his perplexity Forneau asked the opinion of the Marquis de Chantelle.
 The Marquis suggested the fol- lowing clever device: The Service de la Surete should send an agent to the building pretending to be an official of the government concerned with certain mental tests required, in order to register citizens for the cleo torate. Among other tests, he should require them to write the names of the president of France and that Of the premier at the close of the war, This would include the names of Mill lerand and Clemencean, and by this means they could obtain the M of the Marquis and the c of the word Chanelle, which had been written by the unknown thief upon the memo randum which contained the com bination of the safe"

at once. snapped a pair of handeufrs on him and confronted him with For- neau. He was shown the slip of paper which the Marquis had picked up In his apartment He was told the details of the crime aa he had carried trout. and in his confusion he confessed"
 The Prefect Of Police continued to speak. slowly, without a change of accent, as if to himself.
 Monsieur le Marquis will remem- Der the Apache's confession; he had obtained position in the building and had watched the Marquis apart ment. As 1t happened the night of the robbery was not the first time that the Marquis had left the door uncosed in the afternoon. It was then that this man had gone In taking with him slip of paper from the basement--broke open the Mar combination. which he finally found and wrote down. The search had re- quired very long time, and he had not time on this day to open the safe. He had taken the paper with him and waited until this night on which the Marquis had again gone out, leav- ing the door unlatched.
 Then he had opened the safe and removed the necklace He thought that in putting the necklace into his pocket he must have pulled the slip of paper out. and by this means It had fallen to the floor where the Marquis had picked 1t up.
 ''The man made no defense and waived all legal procedure. He con- fessed and has been sentenced to a term of Imprisonment. But he re- fused to say what he had done with the necklace"
 M. Jonquelle. watching the Mar quis took box of cigarettes out of his pocket and slipped his thumb nail around the stamp, but he did not open the box. He spoke sudden ly to the Marquis de Chantelle; his voice was sharp, clear. and Its tones arrested the mans attention.
 Monsieur de Marquis" he said. Mime, Zirtenzoff will not be pleased with her bouquet of orchids"
 The Marquis turned suddenly on him.; his eyes were now contracted with an intense expression.
 You know, Monsieur, that I have sent bouquet of orchids to Mime. ZirtenZoff?"
 "Surely, Monsieur" replied the Prefect of Police. 'I passed the boy departing with them when I entered. They were very lovely, superb, ex- ouiste, the Mottled Butterfly. How amptly adapted is that flower to Mon- sieur le MarQuis!'
 The Marquis continued to regard him.
 And why. Monsieur, do you com pare me with this variety of orchid?"
 "If you will tell me, Monsieur le Marquis" replied the Prefect of Po- lice, "why Jean Lequex refused to say where the necklace was that he had stolen, will answer your question"
 The hauteur in the Marquis voice was now distinctly audible.
 Monsieur" he said, 'it was you who promised to tell me that"
 And I shall tell you," replied Jon- uuelIe. "Jean Lequex refused to say where the necklace was for the very good reason that he did not know where it was.''
 M. Jonduelle looked the Marquis steadily in the face. .
