NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XIII

From the quality of the light
edging the drawn shades, from the
clink Of china against silver in the
kitchen, and from the heartening
whiff of coffee from the same
quarter, Jane knew that it was
nine o'clock or thereabouts, of a
clear morning, and that her maid,
Kitty, was almost ready to bring
IN her breakfast tray. She rolled
over and buried her face in her
pillow and groaned. 81 wish I'd
never walked up. I wish l had the
nerve to kill myself"
She had been in the middle of
dream like a memory. She and
Amy, swinging their tennis rack.
cts, were walking under the elms
at Marburg, and they had been
laughing together, but the dream
blurred and she couldn't remem-
Der any more. Anyway she was
awake. The dream was gone. She
had to face another day of the
consequences Of her own folly.
She rose YEARLY, pulled a thin
rose-color negligee over her arms
and stuck her feet into rose-red
Chinese slippers. She went into
the bathroom and turned on the
water and as she stopped the mir
ror showed her face. thin, with
purple half moons under her eyes,
her sick mouth, her hair hanpino'
dry and lifeless. and she shivered.
81 look a Million" she thought,
and after that she avoided the
glass. She poured violet vinaiggre
de toilette into the bath and the
sharp sweetness refreshed her a
little, and she pinned up her hair
and tied a ribbon about it.
She was back in bed after her
bath when Kitty knocked. Kitty
was West Indian, with an aborigi-
nal profile, British accent and a
great talent for cooking and for
Winding her own business. The
breakfast tray was spotless, every
section of the grapefruit entirely
loose, the bacon and rolls crisp,
and the coffee black and strong
and boiling hot. She set the tray
on the table beside James bed,
pulled up the shades, brought an
extra pillow and quietly, deftly
tidied the room.
care you feeling better this
morning, Miss" she asked.
"No. I'm not. And | don't want
any breakfast"
ooh, do take some coffee. Miss.

bered the money cache and wrote

money. "Take out what you need
to fight bandits" Marshall wrote.
Police sent him the money with a
note which read: mo need"

Roger Thorpe came in. Jane

Jane simply looked at him in
silence, tapping her pencil against

!, LOVE STORY
So strengthening, coffee"

1t had always amused Jane to
hear Kitty's Britishisms, contrast
ing so drolly with Kitty's African
color and features. But this morn
ing she loathed Kitty, feeling in
the woman's manner an insolem
satisfaction at her state. Kitty
knew too much. Very well, she
would get rid of Kitty. At the
end of the week she would pay
her and discharge her without a
reference. While she thought
about this she drank a little cof-
fee, broke the roll and lifted it
to her lips, but il nauseated her.
She leaned back white and faint.
"Take the tray away" she said.
"Give me that bottle of salts"
Cant | help you. Miss"
Trough her closed eyes Jane
was aware of Kitty's sly. respect
full malice and it spurred her en-
ergy. Take the tray and leave the
room," she commanded. "I'll ring
II L want you.
The spasm Of nausea passed but
it left her very weak. She mustn't
be weak. She needed all the
strength she could muster. She
looked at the calendar. Then she
looked about her room, room
she had been proud Of when she
had furnished it. She had
thought it odd and chic, and so it
was. The walls were hung from
floor to ceiling with a shadowy,
far-away white and gray cretonne,
the furniture was painted black,
but the rug in lively soft rose, and
pillows of rose-color, gave CO.
quetry to this austerity. James
own negligee was the same rose.
She had seen the room in a dec
orators exhibition and had not
been satisfied until she had dupli-
Gated it in every detail. Now she
hated it. It's gaiety seemed callous
to her suffering.
The telephone rang and she
took it up. ooh - Roger I
feel awful -. | don't want to
see you -. / don't want to talk
-. There's nothing to talk about
-. Leave me alone, can't you
-" She banged the receiver
down fiercely and lay back again
on the pillows.
"I'm going to get rid of him."
she thought. "He's a coward I
hate him. too, along with every
thing else. Whining around - I
shall tell him" She was strong
er now and she got up again, hud-
died into some loose clothes and
combed her hair. That made her
feel better. When she went into
her living room Kitty was there
cleaning. make me some fresh
coffee and toast and bring it
here" said Jane, and sat down at
her desk.
This room, like the other, had
been copied from a decorators
exhibit. Jane had travelled far
from the grasscloth and mahog-
any which had so impressed her
at Miss Jardine's. This was, so
far as an apartment living room
can be, Spanish salon, heavy
carved wood, dark leather, iron
works, bronze lustre pottery, blue
brocade, tile-top stands. Of
course it was absurd and it was
also uncomfortable, but Jane lik-
ed it and it suited her present
mood far better than the ameni-
ties Of her bedroom.
Her desk was the only piece
out Of keeping and it stood in a
corner by one Of the windows,
half hidden behind high screen,

CHICAGO, March 28.-The hijacker
has become the forgotten (and good
riddance) man of prohibition, but
police and prosecutors are divided In
opinions Of what has happened to him.
Hes robbing banks" says Joseph
B. keenan,. head of the criminal divi-
sion of the Department of Justice at
Washington.
Hes probably a c. w. A. worker"
suggests Michael F. MorriSsey, chief
of police at Indianapolis.
In Chicago, long a stamping ground
for the liquor hijacker, police believed
that with repeal this type of criminal
| preying on other criminals, would
turn upon legitimate business and
hijack interstate shipments of poul-
| try and other products. The police
augmented their hijack details, with
| the result that this type of racketeer-
ing was halted before it could fairly
start.
Gangs Broken Up.
This announcement came today
from Lieut.. James Kerr, who has
charge of the anti-hijacking detail
Two gangs that specialized in hijack-
ing on a big scale were broken up,
and their members are now await
ing trial.
Among the officials who pictured
the hijacker as turning to legitimate
work was Chief Morrissey at Indian
apolis.
I'VE have had few complaints about
hiiackinO SinPa reneal hlIt there iS No
indication hijackers have turned to
other rackets. They're probably on
c. w. A. work.
Fred w. Frahm, chief of detectives
of the Detroit Police Department, took
a somewhat similar view.
Since repeal, Detroit has had no
hijacking cases." he said. Before re-
peal, hijacking reports were numerous
and 1 attribute the number of cases
to the fact that the bootleggers were
waging war against one another. The
market for. bootleg liquor is poor and
the bootleg liquor business in Detroit
is passing, There are no indications
that the former bootleggers are turn
ing to any other rackets here
Believed Still Criminal.
From Assistant Attorney General
Keenan, and others came opinions that
the hijacker hasn't given up his
criminal career.
Hes robbing banks and becoming
a highway robber," keenan, said.
Our advices indicate that some
hijackers may have gone in for kid

naping and minor extortion," said
John j. Mccarthy, acting chief Of
police at st. Louis. I'VE have made
cases of this kind in st. Louis"
I'VE have been severe on hijackers
and some stiff sentences have been
passed recently. There is reason to
believe they are turning to confidence
games as a more lucrative business. I"
said Sheriff Thomas B. Bash at
Kansas City.
Chief of Police Albert T. Clark of
Denver said the hijacker had turned
to stick-ups and petty thievery since
repeal. Police at Seattle said the
same thing, adding that some Of them
had also become gamblers for a
livelihood.
With national prohibition repeal
we had expected shipments of liquor
would be sent here from Missouri and
Illinois and that probably there would
be few hijackings." said Police Com
missioner Clifford Davis of Memphis,
Tenn, but the shipments into Mem
phis have been few"
He added: II understand that the
legal liquor has neither the power nor
the bouquet of the aged corn whisky
of this area"
