sense that, by Eaton's admission Of
the fact, Connery had been dlsap-
pointed.
"All right. Mr.. Eaton" Connery
returned to his charge. "You are that
man. So besides whatever else that
means, you'd been in Seattle eleven
days ana yet you were the last person
to get aboard this train, which left q
full hour after Its usual starting time.
Who were you waiting to see get on
the train before you yourself took it?"
Eaton wet his lips. To what was
Connery working up? The PROBABLE
that In addition to the recognition of
him as the man who had waited at
Warden's-which fact anyone at any
time might have charged-Connery
knew something else which the con-
ductor could not have been expected
to know-this dismayed Eaton the
more by Its indefiniteness. And he
saw, as his gaze shifted to Avery, that
Avery knew this thing also.
what do you mean by that ques-
tion?' he asked
II mean that-however innocent or
guilty may be the chance Of your be-
ing at MIR. Warden's the night he was
killed-you'll have hard time prov
ing that you did not wait and watch
and take this train because Basil San
toine had taken 1t; and that you were
not following him. Do you deny it,"
Eaton was silent.
Connery, bringing the paper in his
hand nearer to the window again,
glanced down once more at the state
ment Eaton had made. Il asked you
who you knew in Chicago" he said,
"and you answered No one' That
was your reply, was it not?"
Yes"
"You know no one in Chicago?"
mo one,' Eaton repeated
And certainly no one there knows
movements in relation to Mr. San
tome. That's a necessary assumption
from the fact that you know no one
at all there"
The conductor pulled telegram
from his pocket and handed it to
Avery, who, evidently having already
seen it, passed it on to Harriet San
tome. She took it, staring at 1t me-
chanically and vacantly; then sudden
ly she shlvered, and the yellow paper
which she had read slipped from her
hand and tluttered to the floor. Con-
merry stopped and picked it up and
handed 1t toward Eaton.
"This is yours" he said.
The Holly chieftain., 1923-02-01

"Yes; for 1t was just eleven days
before this train left Seattle that you
came to the house OF Mr.. Gabriel War
den and waited there for him till he
was brought home dead"
Eaton, sitting forward little
looked up at the conductor; his
glance caught Avery's an instant; he
gazed then to Harriet Santoine. At
the charge, she had started; but
Avery had not. The Identification,
therefore, was COnnery's, or had been
agreed upon by Connery and Avery
between them; suggestion of 1t had
not come from the Santoines. And
out being certain OF it; he was watch
ing the effect, Eaton now realized, to
see IL what he had accused was cor
rect.
isn't that soT' Connery demanded.
''Or do you want to deny that too and
have It proved on you later?"
Again for a moment Eaton sat ST.
lent. "No," he decided, II do not deny
that"
Then you are the man who was at
Warden's the night lie was muir
dered2"
"Yes," said Eaton. 81 was there that
evenings was the one who came
there by appointment and waited till
after Mr.. Warden was brought home
dead"

OUR LARGEST CAVE

In 1881 a man passing over hole In
the ground had his hat shot on BY

accompanied him back to the spot and

Although not all OF this cave has
been AZ yet explored. that portion
which has been trod by man comprises
Q larger AREA than that Occupied By any
other known cave In America. The En-
plored portion comprises about one
hundred miles Of passageways and sew
eral hundred rooms or chambers. No
outlet has been discovered; therefore
the end b az much a mystery a. ever.
Aside from an occasional trickls
