CHAPTER v

The flash Of a million golden
sparks went by their table. McCale
looked out of the corner of his eyes
and saw that a tall woman with
hair the color OF spun sugar was
passing. He recognized her imme-
diately. 1t was Karen Bigelow. She
saw him, but gave no glance of
recognition. Her eyes were fixed
straight ahead in a cold, hard glaze
at the table where Vallaincourt sat
with the torch singer. She deliber-
ately walked toward them.
THAT your Karen?" Ann whis-
pered.
"Uh-huh."
"Well: I do hope there'u be no
trouble"
If there was, it was remarkably
well-bred and closely held. Karen
reached the table and spoke quick
ly to Vallaincourt. He looked
amazed, shaken. He turned to Shari
Lynn once, blindly. But the Lynn
girl only sat there, utterly relaxed,
her mouth a sulky sneer. Karen
took something from her bag and
handed it to Shari. She looked once
at Curt, a long, searching, smol-
dering look, and turned away. VAL
laincourt made move to follow
her, but Shari caught his hand,
drawing him back. He almost stum-
bled In the alcove.
It was then that McCale, swivel
ing around to the startled Ann, had
his second shock of the evening. Not
five tables away, almost hidden in
corner, sat Stephen Bigelow.
There was a row Of empty glasses
in front of him as though he had
ordered them all at one time. Yet
he did not seem to be drunk. His
eyes were sunken in that face so
prematurely cadaverous but they
glittered with a cold, sardonic
amusement that was frightening.
Ann Marriott gripped McCale's
hand in an imploring gesture.
Lets get out of here"
"Maybe the fun is only just be-
ginning" he said, rising with
alacrity.
IN the steps, slight alteration
was taking place. Karen Bigelow,
swathed in ochre wool, was trying
to restrain a slightly bedraggled,
fussily dressed woman. McCale
saw that it was Sylvia Bigelow,
bullying out Of sheath of satin.
Karen was saying, "You mustn't
60 in, Mother Bigelow, you just
can't. Let me take you home"
Get out of my way!" the older
woman said.
II can't let you go in. Besides,
he's not there, Sybil. He really isn't
there"
"How do you know"
II looked"
"You came here to see him?"
eyes, yes-but he isn't here.
Come home with me, Sybn."
The grotesque Sybil hesitated a
moment, her bright feverish eyes
searching Karen's face. Then she
pushed her forcefully aside with
crushing arrogance.
Browning chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1941-1953, 1947-02-21

He kissed her hard on the lips,
noticing her complete calm indif-
ference. She was angry.
Thanks ever So"
"Oh, Lord" he groaned, don't
go giving me your impersonation
OF Bette Davis now. I'm going to
the Print Club to see Jerry Tate"
"Oh, all right. Go ahead. I know
what you're like when you smell
blood, you hound" She searched
his face quickly. "Does it look that
bad, Duke? I seem to have been
feeling it myself all evening, though
I've tried to tell myself it was my
proximity to you and one of your
fabulous lunches"
He nodded slowly. "Yeah. Some
thing tells me there is something
very dirty afoot. It's only breaking
out in little places here and there,
but there's bound to be an explo-
sion OF some kind in the offing. I'm
short on information, baby, and
little late on the scene. What I do,
I've got to do quickly"
"Well, 60 ahead, but be sure
when you pass the Old Howard to
stay on the other side of the street."
She laughed, dismissing him with a
return to her old Righteousness.
"You are a jealous wench," he
chided her, closing the door on her
retreating figure.
Browning chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1941-1953, 1947-02-21

He chuckled to himself as he got
back into the cab, giving the adj
dress Of the Print Club. The Old
Howard, local landmark of bur-
lesque, was a standing joke be-
tween them During a former in
vestigation, he had got himself
mixed up, almost fatally, with a
girl whose profession was appear
ing in various night-club extrava-
ganzas. In the glow Of infatuation
he had nearly married her. They'd
gone to New York, where he had
intended to set up an agency for
himself after the completion of his
first case in Boston, but an offer of
seven hundred dollars a week from
the producer of higher type of en-
tertainment had estranged them.
He just couldn't see himself as the
husband Of a woman who was be-
ing cute in front Of an audience.
He was not falsely modest and,
indeed, took a rather harsh, cynical
attitude toward vice. However, that
affair was permanently wrecked.
His inamorata had gone into her
show, got her seven hundred per
week, and McCale had given him
self one big horse-laugh. He had
retraced his steps to the Hub, start
ing his business there, relying al
together on the success of his one
case to get him going.

The Trail Becomes
4 Little Palmer

LET me BY" she said, her voice
rising Historically.
There was limousine at the
curb. Karen walked to it, moving
like a sleepwalker. She got into it
without a backward glance. 1t
rolled away into the dark.
"Well, we'll" McCale spoke as
they settled back into their taxi. II
am more than ever convinced that
there is niger in the Bigelow
woodpile."
II should say So" Ann smiled
YEARLY. "As our good pal, Rocky,
would say-everyone seems one
leap ahead of a fit"
1t was still quite early. Another
night, they might have gone on to
one or another of the nightclubs,
but McCale was in no mood for it.
He knew AIMS evening was prob
ably spoiled, though she said moth
ing. He reached for her hand, ex-
pecting more of her incurable flip
pancy, but she, too, seemed sunk
in thoughtful depression. When
they drew up before the apartment
house where she lived. she kissed
him lightly before they got out,
made no remark when he told the
driver to wait. As he fitted her key
into the outside door, she spoke.
'Drink?"
"No."
"What are you up to? Where are
you going?"
"Places ladies don't grace with
their presence"
"I'm willing to forget I'm a lady
for tonight"
She had a secret yen for the
seamier side. the substrata, the OBJ
scure.
1--WE won't 60 into that now," he
said. He turned her head toward
him. "Here."

He lit cigarette and sat with his
feet up on one of the adjustable
seats of the taxi as it bumped along
Cambridge street. He thought he
had done rather well in the time
he had spent in Boston, in spite OF
obstacles such as his decision not
to take divorce cases, not to hold
out on the police, not to get in the
way of rival agencies. He had man.

He sighed unhappily as the cab
drew up with screech of brakes
before tall, gray office building.
Between this and another older
structure was a narrow alley, at
the back of which could be seen a
family lighted doorway McCale
made for this. From behind the
stark walls on each side of him, he
could hear the rumble and roar of
machinery, for the presses of the
biggest newspaper in town had their
home there.
The Print Club, where pressmen
and reporters gathered to drink and
converse throughout the night, was
on the third floor of the narrow
edifice at the end of the alley. Duke

African Firearms

Since the arrival of Europeans
toward the end of the 18th century,
firearms have become known to
African Negroes but have never
been very commonly used. The
usual form of firearm is the muz-
zle-loading gun which is charged
with fragments of scrap iron OBJ
tanned from European sources. The
marvel is that man can fire such
a device and yet live. There is a
terrific recoil, the barrel may break
away from the stock, and on the
whole it seems more dangerous for
the warrior than for the person he
aims at.

APPLES - WALNUTS
Amber Talisman

From and during prehistoric
times wearing amber was con-
sidered potent charm against dis
ease and many kinds of ill fortune.
According to some authorities this
belief in the potency of amber as
a charm is a survival from the time
OF widespread sun worship when
the yellow color and general aspect
Of amber suggested that it might
partake of the divine nature of the
sun.
