port him to the police, perhaps. He
couldn't be sure: he only knew that it
spelled danger for himself. And he
was more thoroughly determined than
ever to put an end to Archer. -.
Brisbane, as now see it, had just
placed the strings, which he had used
for boiling Archer's door, in the
pocket of his top-coat, when Wrede
came silently upon him from behind
and thrust the dagger into his back.
He collapsed Immediately, and Wrede
pushed the body, which he thought
was Archer's entirely into the closet
and closed the door. He went back
to the library; and it was at this time
that he probably stumbled over the
Scottie, which had followed him in.
He decided that it was safest to get
rid of her Immediately. She may
even have barked or made some sound
when he stumbled over her; and he
was in no frame of mind at that mo-
ment to meet new emergencies log
ically. He dropped the dagger back
into the vase and picked up the poker
Then he struck the Scottie over the
head,-it was the simplest and most
direct way of dealing with an unex-
pected circumstance when there was
no time for thought. The presence of
the dog was unexpected, incalcul-
able.
"There can be little doubt that the
man was in a panic-and with suffi-
cient reason. He did not even switch
off tina lights in the library. The
whole thing was amazin'. He went
home through tina rear door thinking
that he had left Archer's dead body
in the coat closet. Then, when Gam
bic summoned him the following
morning, he found that Archer was
still in his bedroom, behind bolted
door! The man must have felt that
the whole world had gone insane. I
imagine he rushed to the hall closet,
when Gamble wasn't looking, to check
his sanity, 80 to speak; and then he
saw the dead body of Brisbane. Some
of the truth, at least, must have
dawned upon him. He had killed his
friend-his ally-by accident! What
mental torture he must have suffer-
ed! And there was also in his mind
the terrible problem of Archer's
death. . . I wonder the man stood
up so we'll when We arrived. The cold
desperation of the final necessity, I
suppose. :"
Markham moved about the room
restlessly.
81 see it ALL" he muttered, as if to
himself. He stopped and swung round.
"But what of Wrede's attempted
murder of Grassi?"
"That was logical and in keeping
with his character" said Vance. "Miss
Lake explained it-intense jealousy
of his lucky rival. Wrede thought he
had successfully pulled the wool over
our eyes, and the fact gave him con-
fidence. He knew exactly where the

 ed To-day in 57-Page Booklet By Staff

Waterbury hospitals 45th annual report, read to the board of direc- tors at their annual meeting Tn December, was today issued in printed form, the booklet contain ing 57 pages of printed matter.

 One of the prime needs of the hospital, 1t Is stated by the execu- tive committee, is new nurses home in order to offer inducement to high type girls who might be attracted to larger and more rich ly endowed hospitals.
 The reports points out that the sum of $9,0OO received from the state Is much less than many other Connecticut hospitals receive, not only in amount but also in consid eration of the free service which Waterbury hospital offers locally or the state cases which it takes at less than cost. .,

VETERAN EMPLOYE
 NEW A&P MANAGER
C. A. Whipple, Formerly of Maine, Greeted By Staff
 Members of Conn

Meetings of A. & P. managers have been recently held in New Haven and Bridgeport to welcome their new head, C. A. Whipple now in charge of the Connecticut area formerly held by J. s. Sax ton, who was recently transferred to Springfield, Mass, where he is to be vice-president' in charge of that section. MT. Whipple was re- gently transferred from Portland, Maine. and has alreadyy assumed charge of the Connecticut territory with headquarters in New Haven. F MT. Whipple is one of the old timers in the. A. & P. Tea Com pany. He started with the com pany twenty years ago in the New Jersey section. From there he was transferred to Boston where he gradually worked his way up from the capacity of clerk to the title of superintendent. While working in Boston there came an oppor- tunity for an assistant general su- perintendent in the Portland area and MT. Whipple was chosen to fill that position. It was necessary to find a man we'll grounded in the A. & P. business to fill the place vacated by J. S. Sax ton and again MT. Whipple was | selected to take full charge of the New Haven Unit In the capac- ity of assistant general superin- tendent.
 These A. & P. Managers meet ings have been held so that MT. Whipple might acquaint himself with the managers. He gave them a very interesting and enthusias- | tic talk on the progress that the A. & F. Tea Company has made Tn the past twenty years, and ex- plained what unlimited opportun- ities there are in the tea company for the man who is willing to work his way up. He said that there are now more than 15,00O stores throughout the United States and approximately 90,000 employees. It was pointed out that whenever lower costs of food are received it is immediately reflected in lower prices to the consumer and that has been the policy of the A. & P. Tea Company for more than 70 years of public service.
 Managers present at the meet ing gave MT. Whipple a hearty welcome. He was introduced by Franklin H. Smith, New Eng land Division Managers Benefit Association representative, who painted a very human story of the rise MT. Whipple has made from clerk to assistant general superin- tendent during the past twenty years. MT. o. R. Hornish. mer- chandise department head, also extended to MT. Whipple a cordial welcome to the Connecticut ter. ritory, and assured him the full
 support of the entire New Haven l Unit,

Teachers Opposing
 Educational Bills
Members of Local Associations Legislative Commit.
 tee Voiced Allegiance Oath SOundIy Disapproyed

Disapproval of several educa- tional bills, particularly that re- quiring teachers to take an oath of allegiance to the government will be voiced by members of the legislative committee of the Wa terbury Teachers association at Hartford, it was learned today. Members of the committee attend ing hearings on the educational measures today at the Capitol in- clude William Moran, Miss Anna E. M. Dwyer and Miss Mary Ken nedy. Miss Daisy Lord, president of the association is also a mem- Der. of the committee, and 1t is expected that she will attend the sessions.
 Opposition to the oath of alle- glance bill was expressed at yester- days meeting of the association held at Crosby high school. No instructions were given and no formal action taken, but the con- sensus of opinion among members was strongly against the bill and 1t is believed that members of the local committee will unite with other representatives of the asso- citation in protesting against the measure.
 Throughout the state and the country, local teachers said today, resentment g ainst compulsory oaths advocated by legislators is growing among teachers groups. Indications during the past few weeks in Connecticut point to a united opposition by educators against the measure. In New Brit ain recently the superintendent of schools was empowered to for mally protest the bill on behalf of the board of education of that city.
 pr. Thomas J. Condon, superin- tendent of the local schools, yes- terday told the Democrat that he was personally opposed to the oath of allegiance measure. He said he had never heard of a radical minded teacher in Waterbury.
