Brain TwizzIers By Prof. ]. D. Flint

In connection with a very im- portant murder. which had gone for a long time unsolved, two detectives were working on a clue which in- volved the chimes In a huge church clock out in the suburban area of a large city. The time of the mur- der had been established but the time consumed in the muTderer's getaway was open to argument.
 The two detectives listened to the clock boom out six o'clock and one of them measured thirty seconds from the start to the finish. He said, Thirty secondsl Then tt would take sixty seconds to strike twelve o'clock" The other one said. "No. that's wrong. I know how long it would take to strike twelve o'clock" What was his answer?

 Look here," he pleaded. eve got wife. I've got the old man and Tony. Think Of them, not me. I've made my mistakes, yes, but Tin no crook. just got mixed up with the wrong people" Marcia had no answer, but the door opened for Tony at the mos ment. He had put on his overcoat. Buttoning 1t and pulling gloves from his pocket, he looked at his brother.
 You'd better come along and get this over with," he said at last.
 Come along where?" asked Carlo, forcing his voice to be hard. ITO tell the police who the rest of the gang are"
 You can't do thatp cried Carlo shrilly.
 T can't do anything else," Tony retorted. I'm not feeling sorry for you. I'm feeling sorry for my self. I'm worrying about keepinng 1t from the old man."
 Then think of him--l'
 T am thinking of him! You've given me that to worry about If could let you off. I'd do 1t, for his sake. But if let you off, I'd be letting your whole gang off. I'm a citizen here, if that means anything to you. I've got to turn you in and your gang wiht you. And then I've got the job of keep ing the old man ignorant"
 Marcia was aghast at the drama being enacted before her. Brother and brother; She longed for an easier solution than the stern one which Tony's logical mind. with what suffering she did not know, had fixed upon, but she knew there could be no other.
 The thiefs forgotten cigaret burned his fingers. He turned to the sink and stamped out the glowing end. Through the window he say the world a wide, free world.
 T could warn them off" he promised. "If told them things were hat out here they wouldn't come back"
 His manner swept Marcia's sym pathy aside.
 Well, they'd certainly not get religion just becauca cf that she said impatiently. They'd simply transfer their work to some other place. How can you expect us to let that happen. for your sake?"
 Carlo nodded in miserable ac. quieSccnce.
 Let me go up end say hello to the old man." he said. "Tonys right he mustn't hear of this. Just let n, go up and see him. When I ccme down we can talk over what to do. Whatever I've got coming to me, you can't let my wife and the old man suffer-"
 He pushed past them and closed the door. Tony and Marcia waited in silence, wretchedly aware of what they had to do. ..-=
 There's nothing we can do but tell the police, is there?" asked Tony duly, without hope. "1'll have to be awfully careful the old man doesn't hear"
 T wish I knew of something else, Tony" said Marcia. "It's hard for you and for your brothers wife"

CHAPTER XVI

Both Marcia Canfleld and Carlo Stellicci, waiting in the shabby kitchen while Tony carried hot water to the nurse attending his father upstairs, knew fear in those silent minutes.
 Carlos was the fear of guilt. Marcia'S, the fear that came with sudden realization that an armed and cornered man faced her. There was a fascination in the thought; she looked at him curi- ously.
 The man did not meet her gaze Lighting | cigaret, he turned and stared out the window, try 1g to force his slow mind over possible escapes.
 Yet all mental mancuvcriny was in vain; he knew that he vas en- couraging a futile hope. It flick cred and died even as he tried to fan it into reality.
 "What arc you going to do?" he asked, with ghastly show of sud- den penitence as he sought another avenue.
 Marcia considered him, consid. cred the sick man upstairs and hk other son. She thought of the robbery of the Dog Wagon when this man, 1t was no wclear, had somehow assisted the actual ban- dits, and of the loss of her mothers ring, by odd chance returned. She thought of the stripping of her own home on Christmas afternoon, and of the audacious holdup of the benefit bridge party at which a hundred women of the town had lost all the jewelry they wore.
 What can we do, she demanded, "but tell the police? You have been robbing the town right and left! You all carry guns; it's a wonder you haven't murdered someone! The trouble Is not what to do with you; it's how to pro- tect your father and brother"
 Carlo lighted cigaret, but the pause brought him no help. Then and idea occurred to him.
 ' wouldn't be the first guy who made a mistake" he said slowly, his face peculiarly ugly with his thought, that you didn't put the cops on. Don't you think I know about Kendrick? Don't you think everybody in town is wise by now to what he did? He stole every thing he could lay his hands on and then he beat 1t, but you never called the cops for him!"
 Marcia stiffened at the imperti- hence. And then, as suddenly, she wanted to laugh, hysterically.
 But she sobered immediately,

He let Europe know he needed a loan to build up his railways, and the great powers vied to gain his sup- port Germany won, but when the war came the crafty old fox de. clared his neutrality.
 In September, 1915, however, Ferdinand secretly signed an al- liancc with Germany, after Kaiser Wilhelm had guaranteed pay- ment of his private fortune in England, for withdrawal of that money at the time would have re. vealed the secret.
 So to war went Bulgaria. In October, 1918, as defeat seemed imminent and revolt was in the air, Ferdinand fled.

 The sound of an automobile starter came from the street. Startled, too late in Suspecting, they rushed to the front door. Carlo was leaving Bobb3 Neck.
 
 Tony Stellicci spent more than an hour in private conference with the police chief that afternoon. Telling all he knew. or guessed, Of his brothers activities, he pleaded for secrecy. for his fathers sake, as long as possible.
 The police immediately visited Carlos garage; the identity of the two other outside men in the ban- dit gang, they thought, was plain. But Carlos employees. too, had fled. Whether Carlo had stopped at the garage or paused somewhere long enough to telephone warn- ing, the police never knew, but Bobbs Neck had seen the last ot the trio.
 The police congratulated them selves that this must spell the end of the series of holdups. They con- tinued to wonder about the four actual bandits-the outside talent which, obviously now, had had Carlo and his men for Bobbs Neck pilots. But lacking any leads from the three, who had become fugitives, they didn't think 1t likely that they would again encounter the four strangers.
