and he had a wild look. He kept
his hat on and his coat collar turned
up. He looked scared. I kept away
from him, thinking the cops might
walk in on him" Babs drew a
sharp breath and went on: He
called me over to his table with
another cup of coffee. I had it on
a tray Just as I set it in front
OF him I heard the cafe door open
What them" Phil prompted.
His Face Went Sick.
Babs gave shiver. The customer
was looking at the door. His face
went sick. He made a funny noise
in his throat. I was going to turn
around to see what was going on
but the man hissed at me. He
whispered, Keep this for me
mademoiselle. I will pay you well
when return. Tell no one! And
he took the envelope from his pock-
ct and slipped it on my tray.
gave him look and he was staring
right into my eyes. No trickst he
said. Then he jumped to his feet
and there was gun in his hand
Babs' voice was shrill with ex.
citement. Il turned and ran when
I saw the gun. The man over
turned his table and it made ar
awful crash. I reached the kitchen
doors by then I looked back owe,
my shoulder. Two men were stand
ing just inside the entrance An
other was walking toward the over
turned table. He had a gun, too
I thought the fireworks were going
to let loose any second . but they
didn't. The pale guy just gave ur
after they had talked a couple OF
words. The three men took him
away"
And he didn't come back?" Phi
said.
NO Babs replied. IT guess they
took the poor guy for a ride"
when did Bert Cavanaugh come
into this?"
well, this happened a week ago
-" Babs' readable face was deeply
thoughtful. "Cavanaugh came three
days afterward. He asked me a
lot of questions about what had
happened. He wanted to know il
the pale man had met anybody
while in the cafe-before the three
gunmen came. I was scared be-
cause I had the envelope. I told
him there had been another man
Did you know Cavanaugh prior
to his coming to the cafe?"
Babs Scared Stiff.
Babs nodded. "He hooked Max
Varbaum's troupe, which 1 was
with, to put on show at party he
gave at a hotel. It was-some
party!"
What happened after Cavanaugh
questioned you?'
Nothing until yesterday. He
came IN the morning and asked me
If the pale man gave me anything
to keep Tor him. I was scared stiff
and I guess he saw it. But Jornay
came and made me get back to
work. That afternoon I had my
fight with Papa Jornay-and got
taken to jail"
And Cavanaugh got you out -
Phil said.
Eyes. He took me to an office
somewhere. He threatened to get
tough if I didn't tell him what did
with the envelope"
And you told him you put it
in my coat pocket?"
Babs noded.
Phil looked her squarely in the
eyes. "And did you?"
"Of course! That's why I came
here last night"
"And you went through my
pockets?"
For once Babs' amazing COM
posure was shaken. She blushed
well, / didn't find it anyway" she
said. Then: Philip, who doped
your cocktails last night?"

Hos Modified
PRE-BATTLE OF BRITAIN

Great Britain, the Balkans and
the Far East felt the swiftly
spreading shock of new explosions
today.
The British Isles fear that an
offensive against Britain by botn
Germany and Italy was imminent
increased hourly, following new
aerial blows by both sides.
Twenty-Five Britons were
killed when German planes
bombed and machine gunned
the channel islands, as they
were being evacuated, and five
more were wounded in the
eighth consecutive raid on
England and Wales.
British pilots reported sue

boats were said TO be prepar-
ing for an attempt to invade

mania modified perhaps 1000, 900
men and warned that she would

Rumanian and Soviet off
cials denied wild rumors circu-

Cernauti, and German officials
said reports the Nazi legation
at Bucharest had promised to

Bulgaria sent unofficial dele

Berlin about getting back Dob

Turkey made men from Is to 90
