showed how intensely the problem
of the murder had absorbed his in
tereSt.
1t was after 6 o'clock when Mark
ham came in, looking harasSed and
tired.
No mention OF the case was made
during dinner, with the exception Of
Markhams casual remark that
Heath had turned in his reports on
Cleaver and DR.. Lindquist and Man.

ct seemed that, Immediately after
lunch, he had telephoned to the
sergeant to add Mannix's name to
the two others as a subject for in
quiry).
It was not until we had retired
to our favorite corner of the lounge
room that the topic of the murder
was brought up for discussion.
And that discussion, brief and
one-sided, was the beginning of an
entirely new line of investigation
line which, in the end, led to the
guilty person.
Markham sank YEARLY into his
chair. He had begun to show the
strain of the last two days Of fruit
less worry.
His eyes were a trifle heavy, and
there was a grim tenacity in the
lines of his mouth. Slowly and
deliberately he lighted cigar, and
took several deep inhalationS.
Damn the newspapers" he
grumbled. why can't they let the
district attorneys Office handle its
business in it's own way? Have
you see the afternoon papers?
They're all clamoring for the muir
derer. You'd think had him up
my sleeve"
"You forget, my dear chap"
grinned Vance, that we are living
under the benign and upliftin'
reign of Democratus, which confers
upon every ignoramus the privilege
of promiscuously criticising his bet
terS."
Markham snorted.
At don't complain about critt-
cism; it's the lurid imagination of
these bright young reporters that
gals me.
They're trying to turn this sol~
did crime into a spectacular Borgia
melodrama, with passion running
rampant, and mysterious influences
at work, and all the pomp and trap
pings of medieval romance.
you'd think even a schoolboy
could see that it was only an ordi-
nary robbery and murder Of the
kind that's taking place regularly
throughout the country"
Vance paused in the act Of light
ing cigarette, and his eyebrows
lifted. Turning, he regarded Mark

situation Of waiting inactively for
your suspected victim to give the
game away"
"Ill admit the situation is not all
one could DESIRE" Markham spoke
morosely.
But even so, I can't see that
there's any opportunity In this af-
fair for your reconcile psychological
methods.
"The things too obvious-that's
the trouble. What we need now is
evidence, not theories.
IF it wasn't for the spacious and
romantic imaginings Of the news
paper men, public interest in the
case would already have died out. F"
Markham" said Vance quietly,
but with unwonted seriousness, "if
that's what you really believe, then
you may as well drop the case now;
for you're foredoomed to failure.
"You think it's an obvious crime.
But let me tell you, it's a subtle
crime, If ever there was one. And
it's as clever as it is subtle. No
common criminal committed it-be-
lieve me. 1t was done by a man Of
very superior intellect and as
toundin' ingenuity"
Vance's assured, NATTER f-fact
tone had a curiouSly convincing

so much mora intelligent than
Heath's!"
II know it's weird. But 1t hap
pens not to be any weirder than
your theory of lone yeggman."
And for what reason, pray"
persisted Markham, with consider
able warmth, do you consider the
yeggman theory VERDI"
For the simple reason that it
was not the crime Of a professional
thief at all, but the willfully decep-
tive act Of a particularly clever man
who doubtless spent weeks in its
preparation"
Markham sank back In his chair
and laughed heartily.
Vance, you have contributed the
one ray of sunshine to an otherwise
gloomy and depressing case"
Vance bowed with mock humility.
cit gives me great pleasure" was
his dulcet rejoinder, ito be able to
bring even a wisp Of light into so
clouded a mental atmosphere.
A brief silence followed. Then
Markham said:
"Is this fascinating and pictur-
eSque conclusion Of yours regarding
the highly intellectual character of
the Odell woman's murderer based
on your new and original psychol-
ogical methods of deduction?"
There was no mistaking the
ridicule in his voice.
II arrived at it," explained Vance
Sweetly, by the same processes of
logic I used in determining the guilt
Of Alvin Benson's murderer"
Markham smiled.
TOUCHED Don't think I'm so
ungrateful as to belittle the work
you did in that case.
But this time, I fear, you've per-
mitted your theories to lead you
hopelessly astray. The present case
is what the police call an open-and-
shut affair"
Particularly shut" amended
Vancy dryly. "And both you and
the police are in the distressin

ham with a look Of mild inczedu-
lily.
II sayI DO you really mean to
tell me that your statement for the
press was given out in good faith?"
Markham looked up in surprise.
Certainly it was. -. What do
you mean by good faith'?"
Vance smiled indolently.
1T rather thought, don't y know,
that your Grafton to the reporters
was a bit of strategy to lull the
real culprit into a state Of false Sc
curity, and to>give you a clear field
for investigation"
Markham contemplated him a
moment
"See here, Vance," he demanded
irritably, what are you driving at?"
Nothing at all-really, old fell
low" the other assured him affably.
II knew that Heath was deadly
sincere about his belief in Skeel's
guilt, but it never occurred to me,
d. We see, that you yourself actually
regarded the crime as one COM
mitted by p professional burglar.
II foolishly thought that you let
Skeel go this morning in the hope
that he would lead you somehow to
the guilty person.
IT rather imagined you were
spooflng the trusting sergeant by
pretending to fall in with his silly
notion"
"Ah, I seel Still clinging to your
weird theory that a brace Of villains
we're present, hiding In separate
closets, or something of the kind"
Markham made no attempt to
temper his sarcasm. "a sapient idea

Vance seemed pleased with the

And he's so fearful lest he be in

placidly.
"A ray Of light filtered through
here and there. He denied he'd been

"He had a reason for bringing

"Why Cleaver? That explana-

Moreover, It's plain that he

quaintance..
"Plenty of information; but-my
wordI-what to do with it?"
IT give 1t up" acknowledged
Markham hopelessly.
II know: it's sad, sad world"
Vance commiserated him. "It's
time for lunch, and a fillet Of sole
Marguery will cheer you no end"
Markham glanced at the clock,
and permitted himself to be led to
the Lawyers Club.

Vance and I did not return to

Though the performance was ex-

enjoy it; and it was significant that,
after the opera, he directed the
chauffeur to the Stuyvesant Club.
I knew he had a tea appointment,
and that he had planned to motor
to Tongue Vue for dinner; and the
fact that he should have dismissed

FIREBUG'S VISIT SEEN
AT SENATOR'S HOME
Johnson Of California Detects

Special Dispatch to The Star.

RIVERDALE, Md, February A.
That a firebug is operating In this Sec
tion is the belief of Prince Georges
County authorities, following a blaze
last night at historic Calvert Mansion
here, home of Senator Hiram Johnson
of California. Senator johnson said
that his Airedale dog. Spartan, was
barking suspiciously loud near the house
lust before he smelled smoke from the
old carriage house. now used as a
garage The door and window OF the
garage were found to be open, and the
Senator said short time before he
had noticed they were closed.
Senator and Mrs. Johnson were en-
tertaining guests with motion pictures
about 1890 o'clock when the Senator
smellcd smoke and Mrs. Johnson
turned in the alarm. Fire departments
from several communities in upper
Prince Georges County made a quick
run and succeeded after hard fight
in confining the blaze TO the garage.
Two automobiles were destroyed, as
we're several pieces of antique furniture
stored in the building. The firemen
were handicapped by the fact that the
nearest water plug was several DOCKS
away A few minutes before the IRE.
7. w. Vennemann, secretary OF tne
Prince Georges County Volunteer Fire
mems Association and secretary of the
local department. pointed out to the
town council that more plugs were
needed here, and Town Clerk r. r.
Caruthers was asked to write the
