"Perhaps Alix will come up here
and help keep 1t SO some day." the
man said. deliberately. Cherry's look
OF elaborate surprise and pleasure
died before his serious glance. She
was silent for moment.
"Why don't you ask herr she said
In a low, thoughtful tone. trembling,
eager to preserve his mood without a
false note.
"I have" he answered simply.
Cherry's heart jumped with a sudden
unexpected emotion. What was II?
Not pleasure. not all surprise-surely
there could be no jealousy mixed with
her feeling for Peters plans? But
she was dazed with the rush of feel
ing; hurt in some fashion she could
not stop to dissect now.
And she said no?" she stammered
in confusion.
"She said no. Or. at least, I inti-
mated that I was lonely old afrec-
tionate man with this and that to Of
fer. and she intlmated that that wasn't
enough. I ought to have said-I ought
TO eNplaln-that I had told her, only
a few days previously. that I had al
ways loved somebody else!"
"Oh-h-h!" Cherry was enlightened.
She vlsuallzed an affair in the last
years OF the old century for Peter.
"Oh. and-and she didn't love you p
Cherry asked.
THE lady? She was unfortunately
married before I had a chance to ask
her" said Peter.
"Oh-h-hw Cherry said again. i'm
pressed. "and you'll never get over
IT." she asked, timldly. "Peter,
never knew that!' she added as he
was silent "Does-does Dad known
Nobody knows but Allx, and she
sured her.
"Ohi" Cherry could think Of nothing
TO add to the sympathetic little mono
syllable.

Peter, something smells utterly

That's the chicken thing" Peter
shouted back, springing up to disap-
pear In the direction of the bath
room. Cherry sat on, silent, wrapped
still In the new spell Of the pleasant
voice, the strangely appealing and yet
masterful personality.
The dinner struggled as all Peters
dinners did; Alix mixed salad dress
ing: Peter himself flashed in and out
of the tiny, hot kitchen hundred
times. Row, In immaculate linen,
came back and forth In lelsurely
tablesettlng. Suddenly everything
was ready; the crisp, smoking-hot

HACKER KILLING
MAY CLEAR Up
BRIDE CASE
Staying Near Baltimore Paral-
IeIs That Of Wealthy Oil Man
at Meadows, Md.

Washington police today were
hopeful that the mysterious murder
OF Charles Smith, a Baltimore hacker,
would throw some light on the un.
solved murder of Bernard A. Nc
Bride, wealthy Oklahoma oil man.
Smiths body. with q rope tied tightly
about his neck and with six bullet
holes In his chest and abdomen. was
found yesterday in q clump OF woods
near Baltimore.
In several particulars the Smith
murder parallels that OF Mcbride.
whose body was found at Meadows.
Prince Georges county, Md. on the
morning Of August 10.
Police learned that Smith had been
choked after being shot. Mcbride
was beaten over the head and then
choked, a strap being tightly tied
around his neck. The body was
dragged several yards from the We.
hicle in which 1t was, carried to the
spot. Mcbride was dragged several
yards.
A feed sack was laid across Smiths
chest to absorb the blood from his
wounds. A feed sack was wrapped
about McBride's head to absorb the
blood. Smith was last month con-
victed Of embezzling $6S.94. He was
placed on probation.
His family has seen him but once
in eighteen months. They said he
told them he was a chauffeur. but
did not have steady employment. He
was identified through his driving
permit.
A notebook found on Smiths body
contained a number of names and ad-
dresses, most of them being persons
residing in Baltimore.
There was one notation in the
book. Remember this number,
90-314," which the police say may
prove valuable. Washington police
will work with the police Of Balti-
more in running out this clue.
