 I'm afraid so,' said Jimmie as he stopped to pick small object off the floor. You'll test the back of the figure for finger prints?"
 "Of course" said Richmond.
 There's another thing, sir" said Roscoe to his chief. T was passing the main road outside here, about nine-fifteen last night and saw a car and man beside it. He stood there for a time and then cranked up and drove off. He was a strang- CT to me, but I'd. know him again I didn't get the cars number, but it was from n-a small cheapish tourer. They said at the house there'd been no callers-and you heard the young lady just now"
 "Nine-fifteen," reflected Jimmie. That would be precious near the time the deed was done"
 Evelyn, spared the shock of find ing her aunt's body, seemed moro composed under the superinten- dents examination.
 She and Lionel had been singing in the room where she now stood, she told Richmond, when Marjor'e came in-so upset that she could scarcely be uhderstood-and had pulled them outside, where Major Gresham joined them. Then Lionel had gone for Green and Ben, who had carried in her aunt. n She said that Green, who had gone for Dr. Netherton, returned, saying ne had left a message in the absence of the doctor. u i

 Her distress was increasing, but Richmond asked if she had not been surprised at finding Major Gresham near the house.
 No" she replied He was Aunt Annabelles greatest friend, and often came over in the summer to talk to her. suppose he was on his way to the Dutch garden when I saw him."
 Constable Roscoe, sturdy young Yorkshireman with an honest red face and reddish hair, was glad to answer Jimmie's question as to the time of the tragedy.

STUDENTS WORK ON ANNUAL

Work is steadily progressing on the Taku, Douglas High School annual. An efficient staff is completing the various sections of the book as rapidly as possible. A new and original theme is develop ed throughout with a treatment that is clever and different.

 Richmond looked at his notes. He is under notice to go because he wanted to marry Janet Rayaes, the parlormaid. Was he resent ful?"
 He was-and very rude, al- though we rather sympathized with him."
 Richmond said that Green could have pushed the image over and been back on the job within three or four minutes.
 T questioned Ben Acres" put n Constable Roscoe. He said he'd worked in his garden until dark and then smoked in his doorway. Both he and his wife agreed there'd been no callers"
 The superintendent frowned but admitted that the information was important. Were you surprised at seeing Major Gresham?" he quas- toned Evelyn, who declared that her aunt's old friend had often walked over through the gardens.
 Your sister and the doctor were more or less on guard in the lane and the gardener was at the main entrance. How did the major come?"
 He generally uses the bottom gate from the links"
 That leaves the gate beyond the garage to account for" Then abruptly Richmond changed the subject. Your sister and the doctor are very good friends. Nothing more between them than that?"
 Nothing more. I think. We've known him all our lives"
 How long have you been en- gagged to MT. Duckworth?" The un- expected question brought color to the girls cheeks.

fording the market some support
Liverpool was steadier with unset
tied weather In the Argentine a
factor.
Selling was scattered and sup
port light at the start. Corn was
off unevenly with March offering
resistance. Oats were exceptionally
dull with only May quoted, but that
month held firm.
Liverpool Sells OFF
At the opening wheat was 4 to
3 cent lower, corn was g cent
lower to Is cent higher and oats
were Is cent up Provisions were
slow and about steady.
Liverpool reflected the decline in
North America Tuesday and
dropped rs to is pence by mid
afternoon, but due to recovery in
sterling this was equal to Is cent
lower to 4 cent higher. The mar
ket is in a position to respond to
bullish foreign news or increased
exports. Rain, snow or sleet was
received by most of the belt Tues
day and Tuesday night.
Cash Corn Firm
There was considerable short COW
ering in corn at the close Tuesday
night, giving that market a fine
show of strength in the face of
weakness in wheat. The cash mar
ket maintains its firmnesS with the
country adhering to its holding at
titude.
Oats was slightly more active
Tuesday with a moderate show Of
strength. Canada claimed a fair
export business to the continent
and the seaboard reported some for
eign sales in prospect. A deterring
feature in the futures is the weak
