sixth floor Mr.. Poynter, the famous
detective, who had once been in the
Government service, stood waiting.
He shook hands with Hodson and
nodded to Grant.
We're up against a nasty piece of
business, Colonel" he announced. Il
wanted you to see exactly how things
stood for yourself before the police
got hold of It,"
Get on with the story. Poynter." ]"
Hodson invited.
I'm the first place." the detective
pointed out, "the girls bell is cut.
You see the wire there. It's clean
cut, been done with a pair of nippers,
within the last hour or two. Now
come inside, sir. But" he added, his
hand upon the handle of the door,
you must be prepared for something
unpleasant"
1.-The young lady?" Grant exclaimed.
''She is dead" Poynter answered
gravely. "The scene is set for suicide.
Personally l think there is not the
slightest doubt but that she was
murdered. The door of her room was
locked and the key is nowhere in her
room. / picked the lock after I had
tracked her down. This way, sir.
The smell IS still bad, but I have had
the window open an hour"
They entered what was little more
than a garret bedroom. On the bed
lay the body Of Mademoiselle Cleo.
Mr. Poynter raised the sheet which
he had drawn over her face and let
it drop almost Immediately. Above
the girls head was the gas jet and
from It small piece of tube hung
downward. The remains of the i'm
prisoned gas were still escaping by
the open window.
"She was quite dead when I picked
the lock-" Poynter told them, 'and
for the moment I thought that the
gas would get me. 1 managed to
make a rush for 1t to the window,
though"
But surely all this points to her
having committed suicide?" Grant
queried.
II am perfectly certain all the same
that she did not the detective re-
piled. mot only has her bell been
cut but the telephone Is cut too. She
was lying half across the floor, trying
to reach it or the window when
round her, and the window was
fastened down with a nail which had
only recently been driven in. There
is not the least doubt but that some
powerful person entered her room,
held her down until the last moment,
then rushed out, locking the door be-
hind him. There are marks upon the

Limburger Bait Lures Catfish on
Hook in Kansas.

bill River is not known, but, any way.
the fish take it, and take it quick.
says aSSalina correspondent of the
Topeka Capital. Fishermen have been
using 1t all seasons, and a careful in
curry at the grocery stores indicates
that not less than $1,000 worth of
the limburger cheese has been used
since April l for fish bait Before it
was generally known that the fish
were taking 1t readily the few who
knew it bought in large quantities
and caused famine Of limburger
in Salina. Then the grocers bought
heavily and now they are buying reg.
ularly to supply the trade.
1t Is not every cheese bait placed
on hook that gets a fish. The cat
fish have learned how to remove the
cheese and they do 1t frequently in
the Smoky Hill. On Sunday last one
fisherman caught large catfish with
limburger. Upon cleaning it he dis
covered that his fishership had swal-
lowed almost pound of limburger
cheese that day before being caught.
The fish had a large assortment of
cheese to choose from, as there were
many hooks in the water and the
most of them were baited with the
same kind of bait, and 1t cost in the
neighborhood of rs cents pound.

cerned. They've had her up before
headquarters while we've been away,
discharged her, and they have the
effrontery to assure me that they let
her walk out OF the court without ask
ing where she was going to, or with
out having her followed. They've just
turned her loose in New York and left
us to hunt. 1 don't like it. Come
alongv'
Where to?" Grant asked.
ITO see some friends of mine, who
can tackle this job" was the stern
reply. we ought to be able to find
her before many hours are passed.
CHAPTER XIII.
Hodson and Grant dined together
that evening in the latter's room, and
Grant was in the middle of his
promised story of Funderstrom's alb
duction when the telephone rang. A
mans voice asked for Colonel Hodson.
Grant passed over the receiver.
An urgent call for you, Hodson," F."
he announced.
Hodson spoke few brief words and
listened.
Wen be along In ten minutes" he
''Slattery," he went on, that was a
man from Poynter's Detective Agency
speaking. They're the people we called
on this morning about this young
woman. They think they've found
her. VIII you come along with me?"
Sure" Grant assented. Anything
wrong, do you think?"
II rather gathered So" was the
grave reply.
They jumped into a taxi and Hodson
gave the man an address on the other
side of the Park. In about twenty
minutes they pulled up outside what
was evidently a second class lodging
house. On the steps a young man
was waiting.
"Col. Hodson?' he asked.
Right" Hodson answered. Are
you from Poynter's?"
''Yes, sir. Mr.. Poynter's upstairs
himself. He left me here to wait for
you. VIII you go up to the top floor?"
They climbed six flights of stairs

ing, stale tobacco, of beer and pa

girls throat which could not possibly
have been self-inflicted."
Grant searched the room for note
or letter, but in vain.
What she knew" Hodson decided
at last, "she has taken with her. You
had better notify the police, Poynter,
and stand by while they take note OF
the things you have pointed out to
me. You can say that we two have
seen them.'
And don't let them take her away"
Grant insisted. II will be responsible
for the funeral arrangements"
There's just one thing" Mr.. Poyn-
ter said, casting his professional eye
once more around the room. Il have
q perfectly definite idea of my own
as to the type of person who was
following this poor girl. Am l to go
on?"
Absolutely" Hodson replied. "You
can treat it as Government affair,
Poynter, and take your orders from
me. The young lady was suspected
Of having political secrets in her
possession"
"I'll make a report in a few days"
Poynter promised.
They descended to their taxi and
drove away. Both men were silent.
Grant was filled with a sense of hor-
ror. The sordidness of the little
scene, it's atmosphere of tragedy, it's
| cruelty, had brought the tears into
his eyes.
IF ever 1 get my fingers on the
throat of that brute Itash." he NUT
tered, Il think that ! shall kill him.
What did you think of the matter.
Hodson?"
II think that Poynter was entirely
right" was the confident reply.
And every moment 1 am coming
round to your point of view. l am
beginning to believe that this con.
spiracy really exists
You're coming in?" Grant inquired,
as the taxi drove up to the Great
Central Hotel.
Hodson shook his head.
You'll see nothing of me for
twenty-four hours or so,' he an
! nounced. II am going to work in
directions you cant approach. You
and Stoneham go on with your
propaganda, even though the thing
looks hopeless. Let your friends
think that's all you've got to depend
upon. Don't go away from your
rooms for more than an hour or two
without leaving word where you're to
be found. There may be some big
things doing when 1 get started"
Grant made his way through the
crowded vestibules of the hotel and
down the main lobby. On one side
was the supper and dancing room,
and. as he passed the entrance he
came face to face with Itash, who had
apparently just arrived. A few yards
away Yvonne was handing her cloak
to the attendant. Grant hesitated for
a moment and then came to a stand
still. affecting not to notice Itash' s
outstretched hand.
II have a piece Of information
Evening star., 1925-08-30

which may be Of interest to you.
Count rtash." he said.
You are very kind to trouble" :"
was the studiously courteous reply.
Il have just come from a very
sorry apartment in a squalid part OF
the city" Grant went on. II was
summoned there to identity the dead
body of Mademoiselle Cleo"
If Itash felt anything, he effectu-
ally concealed It. He passed his
| fingers over his sleek black hair and
bowed slightly. A gesture OF his hand
kept Yvonne from advancing.
This Is very terrible news" he
said. II had noticed that the young
lady seemed to be In a very depressed
state. It is to be feared. perhaN,
| that she took her own life?"
Nothing of the sort" Grant an
swered bluntly. "She was mur.
| dered."
Then, for the first time, Itash
glittered, his lips seemed to grow
tight against his teeth.
That Is very terrible" he con-
fessed. I'm Japan we do not think SO
much of suicide. One leaves life
when one Is tired. But a murder is
terrible thing. Who, in this coun-
try, would dream OF numbering poor
Clep? She had no money, but little
| jewelry."
"She might have had something
more valuable than either" Grant
observed.
Itash shook his head.
"Oh, no." he murmured. Il know
what you mean, but those were
fancies Of hers. II she has ever
imagined that she heard anything
| 10, ~ cb hoa
mistaken. My country has no secrets,
| neither have I. I grieve for your sad
news. Mr.. Slattery. I thank you"
You are dancing?" Grant inquired.
II am dancing" Itash acknowl-
edged, offering his arms to Yvonne.
This is the last night in New York
of my friend. Mademoiselle Yvonne.
She Is summoned back to Paris and
sails tomorrow"
Grant remained perfectly imInov-
able, regardless alike of Yvonne' s
proffered greeting and Itash's low
bow. They passed together into the
ballroom. Grant watched them with
a strange inexplicable disgust, dis.
gust which seemed to be born Of his
passionate but silent anger. In his
mind he saw Cleo followed home from
the police court to her dreary apart.
| ment, saw her walk into the little
chamber of death, into the tolls pre-
pared for her She was, after all,
very young, and she loved. She was
still lying in that little chamber, with
sheet over her face-and Itash
danced.
| IT think, Grant said TO himself, as
he turned away, "that / shall Ger.
tainly kill Itash.''
| The next morning there were no
sensational headlines, even in the
most melodramatic of the newspapers
