CIRCUMsTANTIAL EVIDENCE

For the third time Mrs Winslow was called to the witness chair.
 Mrs. Winslow.' began the coro- ner, have you telephone which runs direct to your gardeners cot tage and nowhere else?"
 "Yes."
 And where is that phone?"
 By the side of my bed"
 Did you use it to call Ferguson on Monday around midnight?"
 q did not" Mrs. Winslow's sur prise was manifest.
 Did any one else go to your bedroom to do so; for instance your, eh-your adopted son, Jack Winslow?"
 Mrs. Winslow hesitated. T left my husband downstairs with his guests" she said. Jack, I did not see. When I went upstairs, l stayed in my boudoir."
 "Was the communicating door open between your bedroom and the boudoir?"
 "It was" Mrs. Winslow moisten- ed her dry lips with the tip of her tongue. But I was listening to the radio, using the ear phones. ,
 Penfield eyed her in obvious dis appointment.
 So you heard nothing" he ex- ploded. Were you there all of Monday nighttime night your guest Dr. Kane just down the hall, was murdered?"
 "Murdered?" Mrs. Winslow half rose, then sank back in her chair With desperate effort she regained her self-control T cannot even contemplate Dr. Kane's frightful death without emotion" she gasped "Yes, I stayed up in my boudoir playing with my radio set, while waited for my husband. Arnold had promised to bring Dr. Kane there later that night; instead, he brought news of his death.' She covered her eyes with her gloveo hand and bowed her head. For a

Thorre, detective, to probe her past, and gets Dr.. Paul Kane, his friend, to come to examine her. Later that night Kane is found dead under his bedroom win dow.

dignity and her unusual type of beauty were making their impress sion, even on Coroner Penfield.
 What part of the country are you from, Miss Chase?" he de- manded.
 New England-'
 Boston, in fact?"
 She shook her head. "The Glasses come from Cornish, New Hamp- shire"
 But you have lived in Boston, ' with an insistence that brooked no denial. And there you knew Dr. Kane"
 T did not she cried T never met him until Monday night"
 "So?" Coroner Penfield's smile was skeptical. And how long did it take him to make his examina tion?"
 Not so long" Elsa acknowledged "Dr Kane was very thorough for the first time her voice trembled, very encouraging, for he held out strong hopes for my ultimate re- covery by the removal of the pres sure on my spine"
 You would be the gainer, then had Dr. Kane lived" Penfield sug gested swiftly.
 Yes"
 And you are the loser through his murder?"
 What is that you say?" she asked. "Dr. Kane murdered? Oh, it is not possiblel"
 Murdered" went on Penfield, his voice deepening, while visiting old friends and murdered within eight hours of his arrival in Washington. Of these eight hours, Miss Chase, he spent the greater time with you Elsa's blue eyes were raised and stared steadfastly into his. She listened as if hypnotized. You have just stated that his medical exami- nation took not so long" initiating her tone. Then what occupied the rest of his time with you?"
 We were talking"
 About what?"
 My engagement to Jack Elsa became more conscious of the close atmosphere of the overloaded room, it made her head swim. "Dr. Kane knew Jack well when he was at Harvard and he told me many anecdotes of Jacks athletic career there and of his remarkable suc- cess in chemistry"
 "Chemistry!' Penfield echoed the word with triumphant emphasis. So Jack Winslow is skilled chem ist; well, what business is he en- gagged in now?"
 "He-he-" Elsa, bewildered by Penfields rapidly mounting excite ment and his repeated questions, stammered in speech. "Dr. Kane was lamenting that Jack hasn't put his knowledge of chemistry to prac- tical use"
 He haSnt!" Penfield rested both hands on the platform against which he leaned and bent toward her. 'Dr. Kane was killed by in- haling carbon monoxide gas. That gas," he spoke slowly impressively, for experimental purposes, can be generated, and its deadly qualities are known to all chemists" His look held hers. Where is Jack Winslow now?"
 AS the silence heightened, Elsa pressed her hand against her mouth to suppress the scream she feared would escape her. Could she answer truthfully and keep faith with Jack?"
 T do not know" she whispered, as consciousness left her.

 'Dr. Kane saw Miss Chase on Monday night" he began. How did he diagnose her case?"
 "Dr. Kane did not inform me. "
 Well, did Dr. Kane say nothing to you as to her condition, her treatment when he left?" 1 Miss Kline shook her head.
 Oh Penfield stroked his cheek things were not going as he had hoped they would. Well, what happened after Dr. Kane's depar- ture?"
 Miss Chase drank her broth, took her medicine, a bromide, and returned to my room and pre- pared for bed"
 Were you disturbed by any one walking over your head?" asked Penfield. "Dr. Kane's bedroom and bath were over the suite of rooms occupied by you and your patient. , T heard no one moving about upstairs" she declared without he's itancy There are, as you doubt less know, heavy rugs in every room which would tend to deaden any sound; also, MT Winslow's guests on the floor with us were quite <, noisy; I heard them laughing and talking until I fell asleep"
 And when did you awaken?"
 When MT. WinsloW and his guests came outside and removed Dr. Kane's body she explained
 Penfield hesitated, eyeing her sharply; suddenly he spoke with stern abruptness. When did you last see MT. Jack Winslow?'

 You brought Miss Chase in with you?" he inquired, and as she bowed her head affirmatively That is all, Miss Kline;;" but the nurse fingered on the platform and he glanced at her sharply. "Well?'
 My patient is very delicate. May l stay here with her?"
 He nodded. Yes" gruffly, and Miss Kline hurriedly, followed the morgue master into the anteroom A second later they returned, push ing Elsa along in wheel chair.
 Contrary to custom, Coroner Pen- field did not commence his exam ination with the more or les: stereotyped questions.
 Miss Chase" he began. Are you engaged to MT. Jack Winslow?"
 T ann" she replied with catch in her throat.
 You have known MT. Winslov and his family some time?"
 During the past year, yes"

Play TOURNAMENT
OFFERS VARIETY
Comedy, War. Time PsyChoI-
ogy and Tragic Drama
on Guild Program.

Three plays were presented last night
at the Eastern High School as the Sec
ond offering of the Drama Guilds one
act play tournament. One Of these was
comedy, one psychological study OF
the war and the third powerful drama
Of criminal about to be executed.
Alan Monkhouse's Night Watches, -
. study Of dream psychology, was the
FIRST play on the well rounded program.
The East Washington Community Play
ersh choice for the tournament was q
tense drama of the war, in which an
orderly spends q hectic evening with
two shell-Shocked hospital charges. The
play presented q little known side Of
the great struggle.
The Valiant" written by Hall and
Middlemass and played by the Takoma
Players, brought tears to many in the
who faces his sister Just before the
final curtain is about to be drawn down
on his life. going through the scene pre-
tending to be another man, Is one of
those hardly plausible themes that
nevertheless guarantees strong emo
tional appeal.
This play won the competition two
years ago.
The orange and Blue Players offered
as their contribution a comedy by
Louise Armstrong entitled THE Mouse"
There were plenty OF laughs to be had
from such situations as the pirate cap
tain jumping onto a table at the cry of
A mouSe-a mouse!" and q small girl
running OF with the gold under cover
of the clever ruse.
The tournament will be continued to-
morrow night at the Wilson Normal
School.
