laid the wet paper on the kitchen
table and lighted the gas stove. 1t
made him uncomfortable to learn
that John Jones was a mystery to
the newspapers, too. Even more Of
a mystery than he was to Henry.
The reporter didn't know that the
big man from the city-with the
stony face and CLASSY eyes-had
taken up residence as a boarder In
the Potter household.
Henry could hear his wife
Martha as she walked around in
the bedroom upstairs. He decided
that in this thin-walled house
they'd better pitch their conversa-
tons lower If they wanted to have
privacy.
1t had seemed a good Idea to
take John Jones into keep an
eye on the man Henry suspected
was following him, and to collect
a good rent but Henry was be-
ginning to have mi5givings about
him. Mrs. Potter talked too much,
and their son Richard was always
bursting with questions. 1t was 60
ing to be embarrassing.
Richard wasn't up yet. Henry
decided to 60 to his room and have
a heart to heart talk with him. The
boy must be told it was impolite
to discuss family affairs with a
stranger.
Richard, for example, had COM
planned vigorously when Henry
and Jones came back from the hos
pital the night before, and the boy
learned he had missed a near-mur-
der and the even more exciting
meeting Of the model railroad club.
Henry had protested all over
again that he wasn't playing with
trains for the pleasure he got out
Of it--that he wouldn't be mixed
up with the railroaders at all II
he hadn't dropped in on them By
accident Wednesday night, to ge,
out Of the rain.
Jones listened closely to the fam
lily argument - too closely for
Henry's comfort. The little clerk
was aware that he may have
sounded guilty, because he was be.
coming interested in the trains In
spite of himself.
He'd quiet Richard by promising
to take him to SEQ the railroad
soon
Henry started up the stairs,
hoping to tiptoe past Jones' room
to Richards without being heard.
He was surprised to note that the
door OF the boarder's room was
partly ajar, and he could not re-
sist the temptation to peek through
the crack. His son was insidei
Henry pushed the door open
suddenly. Richard! Don't you
know better than to poster a man
with questions at this time Of :"
He stopped. his mouth open. John
Jones was not there.
The boy stood In front OF the
dresser. his hands in the partly
open top drawer. He looked at his
father with wide eyes, but not
guilty.
Henry was horror-struek. "Rich-
ard! After all, Mr.. Jones Is not q
member OF the famiiy!''
Jaw, Just came in to talk to
him. He's skipped out on US. Look
what / found"

OF the miniature trains crashed
headon, and were wrecked on the
track in the main operating room
where the men stood. The crash,
still unexplained, could only have
happened as result of someone
tampering with the railroads wir-
ing system-unless Ives deliberate
ly crashed the trains-club men,
bers asserted.
Others at the meeting were
Stanley King. former banker and
associate OF Ives; Marcia Wensley,
stenographer; Susan Baker, college
student; Laurence Hardness, young
West Side rancher and amateur
artist, and Henry Potter, clerk at
Browns Hardware store.
Police are agreed that Ives
must have been killed by one Of
the persons at the meeting, al
though no weapon was found, ex-
cept a revolver which ballistics ex-
perts said was not the death gun.
1t was in the coat pocket of King,
who denied all knowledge Of 1t and
asserted someone had placed It
there to frame him. 1t bore no
fingerprints.
All those questioned declared
that they knew no reason why any,
one would seek Ives death. He had
been unusually generous in giving
away his wealth, as he believed he
had acquired 1t at the expense of
investors in companies In which he
was interested. He had sold out,
luckily, just before the stock mar
ket crash and failure Of the COM
panies in 1929.
His housekeeper, Mrs. Martha
Willett, quoted him as having said,
I feel that I must repay what I
can to those who trusted their llfe's
savings to my misguided advice
He had long tried, without avail,
Mrs. Willett said, to induce King
to return Kings riches also. to
those in need.
Mrs. Willett limited that Ives
will, when read, may throw new
light on his somber, secluded life
Of the past II years. At the time
Of his death, she said, he had ap-
parently given away most Of his
worldly wealth, but she believed he
took out a large insurance policy
several years ago.
King told police he had fire.

giving his money away. but Ives
would not listen to him. King hint

become mentally unbalanced after

spired crew added the Merchants
to its string OF victims Friday
night as It exhibited the spirit
which has kept II up or around
the top all year. Two runs to the

the score stayed until the Mer-
chants half of the sixth when a
double by Newlands, another
single by Dennis, and triple by
Dale Thurman gave the Mer-
chants a AZ advantage.
Bill Suter then opened the home
half OF the inning inauspiciously
enough by drawing base on
balls, but Immediately after he
was forced at second by Meyers.
The latter was in turn forced by
Chuck Frey and with two out and
a man on first the fire looked to

a single to left to fill the bases,

"HORATIO BISBEE
JAILED IN PROBE
OF IVES MURDER

"Horatio Blsbee, professor OF
history at Bardsdale college, was
In custody here last night as a ma
terial witness in the shooting OF
John Ives, former banker, at Wild.
wood lodge Wednesday night. Pos
sibility of a more serious charge
was considered when 1t was dis
closed that Bisbee recently asked
Ives for a large financial contribu-
ton to the college library fund,
and was turned down.
"There was no friendship be-
tween the men, Chief Of Police
Dan ]. Williams told a Clarion re-

Gus stabbing outside the lodge
after another meeting OF the club.
The professor preceded Spinelli
from the lodge by only a few Sec

for him in the darkness, Chief Will
Hams said, because possibly Spi-
nelh knew something Bisbee did
not want disclosed.
Beyond gasplng the professors
