Pope and scores of other prominent
perscns figured in the prosecution OF
the wife of a musician at the Baden

tiers which the woman declared were
from General Hindenburg were ex-

All the letters were illiterate and
framed in such strange language that
they created much amusement in the
court room. The woman pretended
to acquaintance with nearly all the
celebrities in Germany and solicited
gifts for fictitious charities in which
they were said to be interested, pro-
missing that she would supply auto
graphed letters in acknowledgment OF
the contributions. She supplied the
letters, but an examination of them
In court convinced the judge that
she had manufactured them all her
self and kept the contributions for
her own use.

The spectator is taken from scenes

Mr.. Schertzinger may boast of what
is perhaps the "orgiest" of all orgies

The girl gave a little smile. Every

done a very undetermined trick in

BARLEY turned to me. Rather

now" he said. He then. turned to
the girl, asking If she still had the
letter in the file.
She told him 1t was \ filed away
and we followed her in the other
room, while she went through several
files. Finding the letter, she handed
It to Barley, who read 1t and pass

Nothing was said for awhile.
Finally the girl asked BARLEY II II

TO the hotel. She said she had mot

AFTER an expression of thanks. she
left the room.
BARLEY had dropped into her

stood by the window. Its surface
was covered with papers and liter

DeIore him. He gazed at It as IL he

He took his cigar case from His

and the same time the latest pic

selves with dramatic glory. and also
a screen telling of that famous opera

Melford. and which opened yesterday
at the Colonial Theatre.
"Tiger Love- is vivid romance of

seen it and be kept it in the safe
1t was not a large book. you know,
only about t1fty-tive pages"
BARLEY studied the safe for a Sec
ond before ne spoke again. Then he
asked: And you saw the book
last night?"
Yes, went to the safe just be-
fore going to the hotel where / am
staying. 1t was about 8 o'clock.
maybe a little after. 1 always closed
the safe when l went out. Mr..
Rice and l both had the combina-
ton. The book was there then. for
/ saw it."
At once 1 wondered if in the dis
appearance of the book and the
money we might not find the
motive for the murder. Both, it
seemed had been in the library the
night before and were missing now.
Both were of great value. But my
EeXt thought was regarding the
Aretino. If it was the only copy in
existence, the person who stole 1t
would have something he could not
dispose of. Bookdealers all over the
world knew about the book, for the
story of Mr.. Rice's purchase had
been in all the papers. Such being
tIle case, 10 steal II Semed absurd
But Bartley's voice broke in on my
thoughts.
Miss Long, did you ever have
any correspondence with James Kent
over the book? You know his agent
first discovered it in France"
Il know that. sir, and there was
some correspondence over it. When
Mr.. Rice heard that an agent of Mr.,
Kent had bought this hook ha aSk
ed me to look up what l could about
1t. He knew little of books himself,
buying them as you know to form O
great library. l did as he wished
and few weeks later he informed
me he had bought it himself.
Il naturally wondered how he Sc
cured the book, when the agent of
the other man had discovered it.
He told me that Kent's man had
discovered 1t. He told me that
Kent's agent was informed it was
