give the cause Of the fire, though he
felt that a defective wire might have
been the cause. Just as the fire was
discovered the lights in the home
went out, leading to the belief that
a short circuit had been the cause
of the blaze.

Influenza Is
Epidemic In
County Now
Nature And Extent
More Serious Than in
Any Recent Season,
Health Superintend-
ent Says.

In its character and IN the number
of cases, the influenza epidemic that
is prevalent in Henderson and Vance
county is nearest to epidemic form
of any experienced here in recent
years, Dr.. A. D. Gregg, health sup
erintendent Of the county, said to-
day.
Dr.. Gregg said the epidemic had
come in from the western Piedmont
section of the State and South Caro-
lima. In mid-Decembcr, the Piedmont
regions Of both states were heavily
infected, and many schools in those
sections closed December Is as d
result. The disease has now spread
gradually over North Carolina, and is
now sweeping Henderson and Vance
county. Had the weather not caused
the closing of the schools, the in
flucnza epidemic probably would
have greatly decimatcd attendance,
the health officer said.
Influenza this year is of a rather
severe type, Dr.. Gregg said. RclapScS
arc frequent, and pneumonia often
adds complications. The official
warned the public to beware Of the
malady at this time.
I Get to bed and under Il doctors

YOU into it again. You were up

You couldn't have come down the

"How about a motive?" I in
quired. why was he killed? If
there seems to be no reason for his
death, couldn't he have just en-
countered some river rat, like l
did?"
do you think we ought to blame
it on some river rat and
forget it,"
THAT looks like your best bet"
I told him. "You haven't even es-
tablished a motive-and I thought
that was always the first thing
the police have to do"
why do you keep saying we
don't know the motive? Why do
you think there wasn't any?"
why, IL didn't think there was
one," 1 said in confusion. You
haven't said"
1--WE don't go around telling
everything we have discovered. AS
a matter of fact, the newspapers
already have mentioned one
motive. We tried to keep it quiet,
but it's out now. You forget, maybe
that Markham was a jeweler. He
had jewels on him."
1 gasped in surprise. "Jewels!"
YES" He nodded. Diamonds"
AS we drew lear the door again
he wore a half grin, amused by my
CONSERVATION. You will discover
more about it at the inquest tomor-
row. The motive may have been
robbery"
But, if he had jewels on him,
the robber didn't get them. How
could it have been robbery? It isn't
logical"
Nothing is logical. Frankly,

He hung up the telephone IN

told you, Strickland! That wire
was pulled down about the time
Markham was killed. There's some
connection. Tony said the lights
were burning at 10 o'clock when
the moon came up over the top OF
the building and he shut them off.
The switch is in the hallway next
to the kitchen door. Let's take a
look at it."
We found the box on the wall,
about 10 feet from the glass doors
that led out into the court. There
were dirty fingerprints all over it.
The captain whistled. Here's a
job for you, Sullivan. Get photo
graphs of all these. See if they
match the prints we found on the
croquet mallet."
ION the croquet mallet?" I ask
ed, startled.
Eyes, we found a broken croquet
mallet in the rose arbor where the
killing took place. If the prints are
alike we can be sure it's an inside
job"
Not necessarily" l objected.
Tony switched off the lights. Your
killer didn't have to go near the
switch"
HIN. I guess you're right al
that" He unused a moment, chew
ing thoughtfully. Then. But if this
was a carefully thought-out plan
as 1 think it was, that electric wire
was used, and the killer knew il
was going to be used. If Tony
hadn't pulled the switch-luckily OF
maybe by order from the kisel
himself-the killer would have hac
to come into the hall and pull Ii
himself. If he could come into the
hall without attracting attention
ne must be known here at the club
