 driver, seeing her struggling with the door and the heavy suitcase. slid his car to the curb and flashed her an inquiring glance.
 At her nod he slammed on his brakes, jumped across the inter vening stretch of sidewalk, picked up the suitcase, and said, where to, Miss?"
 She had no particular destina- ton. She dared not go back to Jarvis Happ's house. She remem- bered the name of the cheap hotel where she had spent the night which followed Drimgold's murder. She gave the cabby the name of the hotel and added, "Im in & hurry. Please make it as fast as you can."
 The cab lurched Into motion and Millicent, flashing a glance back at the apartment house, saw a cabriolet swing around the corner and glide to stop at the curb.
 She saw Bob Caise jump from the car almost before 1t had come to stop.
 Millicent settled back in the cushions, too frightened to look back again, fearful that Bob Caisc would sec her and start in pur- suit. ,
 The cab sung into q main artery of traffic and Millicent, sud- denly realizing that she was q fugitive from justice, leaned back in the corner of the cab 50 that her face would be invisible to traf- fic officers or curious pedestrians.
 The cab rounded corner to the left, pulled in close to the curb. The driver jerked the door open. helped Millicent to the sidewalk. carried her suitcase into the hotel. She rewarded him with a generous tip and the clerk who stared at her from behind the desk with world weary eyes.
 Millicent knew the mans type. She stared at him haughtily and said, "Let me see your register, please"
 He handed her the book and she looked back through the pages un- til she found the name under which she had registered and the room number that had been as signed to her. Then she closed the register and said, What rooms have you vacant, please?"
 What sort of q room would you want?"
 'I'H tell you when see what you have vacant"
 By the day, week, or month";
 '"That will deDend"
 He handed her q chart. Milli- cent saw that the room she want ed was vacant, but she pointed to another room and said, Whats the price on this by the night"
 "A dollar sevcnty-five."
 She frowncd slid her finger down until 1t rested on the room she wanted.
 This room ?" she asked.
 That he said, "will be $1.50."
 "Ill take it," she told him opened her purse, slid n bill across the counter, whotc in the register, Miss MIllicent Jones'" and said "Will you please have boy bring up my suitcase?"
 He banged the palm of his hand down on q bell and yelled. Front" A sleepy looking beliboy emerged from an elevator. sized Millicent up with insolent eyes. and picked up her suitcase and lhe key which the clerk handed him, Millicent pocketed her change. fol lowed the bellboy to her room handed him small tip,. closed and locked the door and even took the precaution of drawing the shades Then she went to the place where she had concealed the notebook In which she had written Drim- gold's dictation. The notebook was still there.
 Millicent took the notebook dropped 1t into the suitcase and faced herself in the mirror. She now had every bit of valuable evi- dence in the case in her posses sion. She had the shorthand note book which had caused Bob Caiso so much concern. the books or account which had been stolen tho note in Bob Caise's handwrit- ing which definitely linked him with the woman In the black err mine coat.
