BEGIN HERE TO-DAY.

What horrible and mysterious
power was forcing the three Drake
brothers, Hobart, Wall Street broker;
Roger, eminent scientist, and An
drew, recently returned from Aus
tralia, to place themselves in ridicu-
lous situations? Some power had
forced Hobart to deliver a mock adj
dress in the public square, Roger TO
buflesque a scientific address and
Andrew to sit on the parlor floor and
play with toys. The three appear
terror-stricken and without their
knowledge Patricia Drake, daughter
of Hobart, secured Owen Miles, de
tective sergeant, and his colleague,
Scottie McCready, to investigate.
Miles is employed as a houseman and
Scottie as gardener. Following a
series of mysterious events, Patricia
suddenly disappears-an event which
Miles cannot understand as he and
Patricia were in each others conii-
dence. Possibly the attempt of her
spinster aunt, Miss Jerusha Drake,
to break up a love affair with Rich
ard Kemp has been the cause. Miles
is suddenly summoned by Hobart
Drake.

Eyes, sir" Miles replied, glanclne
at the envelope. 1t bore an address
on West End avenue. "Will there
be any answer?"
~ will leave that to Mr.. Wells. Be
sure that you see him personally"
Wells was seated in his study and
there seemed to be an added GRIM
ness about his mouth as he greeted
the detective.
81 was expecting you.
"Mr. Drake telephoned?"
"No."
"Then you know what has oc'

Exactly" Wells nodded and tax

twist of paper, he held it out to the
detective. "See what you can make

to say about the matter"
The paper was of poor texture,
limp and grimy and as he smoothed
it Miles saw that it was lined not
only across the page but vertically
at each side. 1t appeared to be a
fragment torn from larger sheet
and the few sentences hastily
scrawled upon it in soft blue crayon
were so blurred and smudged as to
be almost illegible.

shrugged. About ten O'clock this
morning the man presented himself
and | went out to the vestibule to
give him the money personally and
have look at him. He was rough
looking character but respectful
enough"
What did he say?" Miles asked.
WAS his manner furtive and did he
appear in a hurry to be gomez"
"0n the contrary. He was brisk
and business-like as if he had come
upon an everyday errand and he
exhibited neither curiosity nor hest
tation. Did you get the young lady $
note, sor?" he asked If you're Mr..
Wells, she said there would be some
thing coming to me- / admitted my
identity, handed him a five-dollar bill
and watched him 90 off down the
street. On snap judgment he might
have been porter, mechanic-you
know the type. But what do you
make of the letter."
The letter was not written under
compulsion; that is self-eident," re-
piled Miles. She left the house Of
her own free will, without taking me
into her confidence Indeed, have
reason to think that she had an APP
pointment with someone who waited
outside the gate to aid her IN her
fight and it could not have been the
young man who is in love with her,
for his presence elsewhere has been
established"
what can be the meaning of her
reference to tatooed arm?"
when we have learned that, Mr..
Wells" responded Miles, "we will be
on our way towasd dispelling the
nightmare of grotesque horror which
hangs over the Drake family. Our
young client has stumbled upon the
path to the truth"
CHAPTER XI
The result of a brief conference
was that Sergeant Miles should en-
gage friend, Zorn, private de-
tective, to work out the disappear
ance of Patricia. This would enable
Miles to remain at Brooklea in his
capacity of houseman and, unknown
to Hobart, keep in touch with Patfi-
cia's disappearance. :,
Before Zorn arrives, Mr.. Wells,
remarked Miles, Il wish you would
tell me something about the early
history of the family. What was
the original sum which each Of them
inherited? From whence did II
Gomez"
From a distant cousin of their
mother in England. He had owned
or had been interested in Soutf
African diamond mine, if l remem
Der correctly, and died leaving nc
other heirs. I was not the attorney
for the family at the time but later
when Hobart and then Jerusha
placed portions of their inheritance
in nv hands for investment,
learned that they had never seer
this cousin but had kept up a desul
tory sort of correspondence with hin
since their mothers death and | az
not know whether they all shared
alike under his will or not" -,
"But what has all this to do Wit
the test you propose making? VIVA
has it to do with Patricia's warnlni
about a tatooed arm?"
Miles was saved the necessity o

trips at night?"
The first supposition which oc-
ours to me is that the fellow might
be helper on a moving van,p re-
piled Zorn.
Exactly Miles cried triumph
antly. Nov study the scrap Of pa

Zorn took up the letter, read it
carefully twice and then carried it,
together with the magnifying glass,
to the nearest window.
You are right, Sergeant. This
paper has been torn from the blank
page of receipt book. The smudges
are from carbon paper and the in
dentations give US a fragmentary
clue to the name and address of the
last person to whom delivery was
made. Mrs. Ja-Sloc-gcombe Ro

yes. It is my theory that she
must have stopped the van on the
road and arranged with one of the
moving men to bring the note here
as soon as they reached the city. We
have reason to believe that she has

letter to the home Of Mr.. Martin

Richard, personally. Be sure that

Eyes, sirW
A trim-looking parlormaid opened
the door of the Kemp bungalow in
answer to his summons but shook her
head when he asked for Mr.. Richard.
Hes gone out motoring with the
family and they won't be home until
late this afternoon. They didn't say
where they were going"
Maybe you could leave the mes
sage with me and I'll give it to Mr..
Richard?"
"No. l have orders to deliver il
myself. l ought to have brought it
to Mr.. Richard last night"
"He wasn't here. He had to take
his mother to a theater party in the
city, for Mr.. Kemp wouldn't go him.

Just say William had message

meaningly.

a private detective to locate her, but
we are, at the request of the young
lady herself and without his knowl-
edge or that of his sister of brothers,
investigating certain matter which
threatens them. The position which
Sergeant Miles and / have taken is
this: the young lady must be locat-
ed at the earliest possible moment
but not disturbed if she is in safe
hands, and we do not want her
father informed of her whereabouts,
although he must be persuaded upon
to take no further step on his own
initiative. Do I make myself clear?"
Perfectly" The drawl was gone
from Zorn's voice. "When did the
young lady disappear, Mr.. Wells,
and in what manner?"
The attorney turned to Miles, who
quickly recounted the circumstances.
This letter is self-explanatory,
he added. "But can you think of
any legitimate occupation which
would take an honest city working
