VOTE TOPU7 fLUES
 0N WATER HEATERS
Ordinance Committee Will Recommend LaI to Council

Every sas hot water heater in the city of New Britain will be required to have g connection with hue pipes If 2 recommendation of the common council committee on ordinances is adopted. and approved by the mayor. The committee dis. cussed the ordinance with Plumb ing Inspector O. 4. Peterson last night and an amendment offered by Councilman Warner and seconded by Councilman Conlon to require that all heaters be connected was carried by vote of { to :. It was put in proper shape today and will be voted on at the council meeting next Wednesday night.
 Several months ago Inspector Peterson recommended an erdinance to have heaters connected % as to preclude the danger of death by gas which killed number of persons during the past year. Differences of opinion arose as to whether or not it should te retroactive and loCt IlS NOUuNIuAAl1 NVAIUu UC~ clared That it should be. The ex pense of making the connection is only about S6, he said. Councilman Mlynarski opposed it on tho ground that it would be ! hardship in many cases and Alderman John- son remarked prospective suicides by the gas route would carry out their intentions regardless of an ordinance.
 The probability of an increase in the building department stan of inspectors to enforce the proposed ordinance if made retroactive. is seen by opponents of the measure. The proposed penalty for violation of the provisions of the ordinance Is . fine of not less than Sl0 nor more than $50.

SYNOPSIS: When Peebles finds in his pocket a playing card from the table at which sat the two silent figures, he realizes that what he thought a nightmare had been reality. MacNair reveals that the cards found in Ogden's safe are marked" so cIeverly that only a strong magnifying glass can distinguish the markings. Pee bIes and MacNair are startled when they find that Furie's eight sided lens-once part of pair of spectacles-clearly ex- poses the marks. Almost simul- taneously they shout-"the poK- CT game that cracked the town!"

 Where have you been ever since Friday night?"
 T was in my room at the Gen. tral Hotel. I was mediating. Four days of continuous meditation are required of the priestesses of our faith every month"
 "Indeed!v l began to understand. "You called on MT. Andrew Ogden last week, didn't you?"
 T did"
 "He gave you a check for $1 ,O00?'
 What has that got to do with you?"
 Evidently" I said watching her closely, you do not know that Andrew Ogden was murdered in his library last Friday night Sheslooked at me, gasping. 'Mur- deredl"
 I explained the circumstances of the murder and the check stub.
 Do you mean the police want to see me about that check? It was contributed to our cause"
 T stared at her, astonished "Dc you mean to say Ogden gave you $1 900 for this-your faith?"
 Certainly"
 I I fell silent. Andrew had hated humbug of every description. He couldn't have fallen for any such 1 nonsense as Cosmic Indulgence.

 He seemed to ponder this. T don't know so much about that. Who is Dillon?"
 You know perfectly well who Dillon isl" I stormed.
 Again the cold-blooded laugh. He got up and I followed him to his car.
 After he left, I went slowly back to my den After some thought I took up the telephone and was presently talking with an old col league who lives in Los Angeles.
 After breakfast the next morning I telephoned Deacon. To my sor- row, he had no word of the children and I strengthened my resolve to start for Skull Valley if they were not back by noon. I went out into the garden. As I approached the patio door, voices came to me. One of them was Mrs Moffit's dis nal treble. The other, womans voice also, I did not recognize. They came into view. Dumbfounded, slipped behind a hydrangea bush
 Mrs. Moffit was showing my lilies to The Woman in Black
 I did not doubt that she was Mrs Lundy. Tall" angular" and "al sinew and bone and tight-shuf mouth" Hubbard had described her. Her long black coat and dres were unrelieved by the slightes touch of color and wondered how Deacon's men had missed her
