Waldron spread his hands, and lifted
his shoulders in an expression more
eloquent than words.
what a man! You cuss me, but
not wait to hear why this all was so.
You sit down, and l tell you. Then
maybe you tell me something also"
Harris stared at him, then sank into
the vacant chair opposite, still scowl
paused at his elbow expectantly, and,
in response to something said the
thief jerked out a surly answer.

Bring me some whisky-a half pint
with a little water. Yes, that's all;
now get out of here"
At this moment Francois returned
with our final course, obliging US to
appear Indifferent to the quarrel rag
ing beyond the curtains. Both men
must have lowered their voices, for
our ears caught nothing of what was
said. 1t seemed to me the waiter was

Neither one Of us touched a thing,
the coffee growing cold in the cups,
as we endeavored to distinguish what
was going on at that second table out
in the main dining room. / came
around beside her, to where l could
peer out also beneath the curtain
fold, and thus gain glimpses Of the
two men, They were talking earnest
ly, but had lowered their voices, until
they were nearly inaudible amid the
din of the place. The anger and threat
had gone out of both voices; but only oc-
words into an understandable SEN
tence; these came to us detached, un-
related, as the surrounding noise
ceased suddenly, or the music came
to a pause

taunt into elevating his voice.
What you mean, keep my mouth
shut? So help me, Moses, I tell no
body"
''The hi you didn't You blabbed
the whole thing to DAILY. He told me

Il tell DAILY? Where you git that
stuff? 1 amt seen DAILY for three
year. Was he in this deal? Why you
not tell me Of DAILY before?"
Tell you! l never knew it until
he told me-"
A waiter brushed past him, bearing
tray, striking against one shoulder
as he passed. Harris glanced up with
a snarling oath, and, before realized
the danger, his eyes must have caught
a glimpse Of me beneath the draped
curtain. Instantly the fellow was on
his feet, all else forgotten in a swift
wave of passion.
There's the guy nowr' he burst
forth. He's hiding in that booth; /
saw him. Come on, and we1l have

l drew back swiftly, pushing the
girl behind me. There was no place
In which to hide, no chance for
escape Perhaps 1 could explain, but,
if not, then l must fight The two
came plunging through the opening
and faced us, the heavy curtains drop
ping behind them and shutting out all
view beyond. Harris, infiamed by
drink, glared about as though doubt
ing the evidence of his own eyes, but
his expression was that of savage
hatred.
H, if they amt both of 'em here!
Say, this is rich. So you two are in
cahoots, hey? Thought you'd play me
for a d-n fool, did you, DAILY? Well,
I'll show you what you're up against

. SHE did not SMILE or look at me,
but leaned slightly forward, drawing
back fold of the curtain with one
hand, so as to gain wider glimpse
Of the large room without. A mo-
ment she remained motionless; then
turned her face sideways toward me.
"Waldron is already here" she whis-
pered warningly HE is alone at that
second table, against the pillar Step
around this side and you can see !;
the man with gray, bushy hair"
could not easily have mistaken the
fellow; his appearance was too en-
phatically that of the Russian Jew of
certain type to enable him to con-
ceal his birthright. His back was to-
ward US, yet as he occasionally cast
his eyes about over the faces of those
around him, / had a glimpse of a
beaked nose, and sallow, dull com
plexion, which seemed to blend natu-
rally into a scraggling beard of no
perceptible color His hair though
was irOn-gray, apparently uncut for
weeks, and thrust back from an un-
usually high forehead, so as to give
the man a ruffled, unkempt appear
ance far from pleasing. He was big
all over, strangely burly for a Jew,
with broad shoulders and large hands,
thickly covered with hair.
l moved back around the table as
Francois appeared, and resumed my
seat, keeping silent until the waiter
again vanished, and left us alone.
"And now that you have located the
fellow" 1 asked curiously, what do
you propose doing-go out and talk
with him?"
She shook her head.
II have reason to believe he expects
to meet some one here" she ex-
planned II do not know who; that
is one thing desire to find out. From
what you have told me tonight rather
think now it may be Harris"
''To divvie up?"
''To talk it over, at least; they'd
hardly bring the stuff in here. Prob
ably by this time that is safely
planted"
Francois came back, and we devoted
ourselves to the meal, although 1 could
observe her glancing constantly
through the opening in the curtains to
make sure Of her man. Finally
Francois disappeared with the rem
nants, while we awaited the serving
of dessert. From my seat / could see
nothing of the Russian.
mo one arrived yet% l inquired.
"The Jew still there?"
HE remains alone eating All! my
guess was right-isn't that Harris,
who has just come fn2"
1t was Gentleman George" beyond
the shadow of a doubt. He had evi-
IDENTIFY located Waldron the moment
of entering the room, and with no
other thought in his mind headed
straight toward where the letter sat.
The Jew glanced up, saw him ap-
preaching, and drew partially back
from the table, the knife he had been
using still gripped in his hand.
His posture was that Of defense. OF
one who anticipates possible attack.
Nor did Harris expression and man.
ner render this improbable. The lat
ter pushed his way forward with an
cry strides, until he reached the man
he sought leaning over the table to
front him. his face black with pas
