It is decided to telegraph Folsom's sister, Anastasia, in New York. Then the startling announcement is fads that Folsom had been murdered in the ocean--stabbed to death. Ross, the dead man's valet, is ques- tioned, as are Barron and his wife, but mo light is shed on the mystery. Police take command of the situa- tion until the arrival of Anastasia.

She made such an entrance as the Queen of Sheba might have made on her historic visit to Solomon. And to carry scripture analogies still fur- ther, she was terrible as an army with banners. Accompanied by a maid and fol- lowed by a string of porters carrying her hand luggage, she strode up to the desk and demanded the manager. Tuttle, the suave room elerk, step- ped forward and proffered his ser- vices, "I am Miss Fcleom," announced the new arrival, "I want the best rooms you can give me. Or, better yet, let me have the suite my brother occu- pied; that is sure to be the best in the house." "I can't give you that just now, madam," Tuttle told her, "for the police have it in charge. -But I feel sure it can 'be arranged that you may occupy it while you are here. If you jwill take 'another .room for the night--" «. "No, 1 will not. Get hold of the police and tell them I insist on having thoe2 rooms. Who else could have them? And why let them go to waste? They're good rooms, aren't they?" "Very good--" "Then I want them and 1 mean to have them. Lord, I've enough trouble ahead of me, without being put into an uncomfortable bed!

She turned to the woman at her side, who obediently helped her off + with her traveling coat, Miss Anastasia wriggled herself out of the enveloping folds and stoed:] a miltant, belligerent figure before the desk as she waited for her keys. She was tall, heavy, and of a com- manding presence. She would have . been ungainly, save that she possess- An ensemble of black cloth, with trimming bands of black Bengaline, was of the latest made and its lines ada) to make the very best of her somewhat difficult figure. - A close, small hat of black Ben- galino covered almost entirely her bobbed hair, which escapad in front in little curls of mingled black and gray. Altogether, as to manner and garb, Miss Folsom was correct, but her face was of the type that has long had the reputation of interfering with the motive power of a timepiece. It was large and long. The high cheek bone was prominent, the nose, though undeniably aristocratic, was large and aquiline,. The eyes were gray and glinting and darted about in angry impatience, And the mouth, a snapping, thin-lipped affair, prom- ised unpleasant consequence to those who incurred the lady's disapproval. Yet her maid seemed to evince no fear of her stern-visaged rhistress. ii su bob it on ; hE give Ser action 'adjoining Il find out," said Tittle, hastily So ring, further | talk with the §Eplosive personage who; for he dreaded had invaded his domain, Aud then Miss ay Yemembered hel , SU het He would be 'of she demanded, t's man. y, Ross?" clerk at the desk. » "Ma'am?" he responded, startled by her peremptory manner.

But assistance came from an un- expected quarter. " Tubby, passing; heard the demand, and his quick mind leaped to the con- clusion that pere was the sister of the dead man, and therefore a possible chance for services on his part that might bring welcome eémolumént. The Folsoms were rich, and the lady was evid ntly anxious. 'ou, Miss Folsom?" he inquired, with his seraphic smile. "I'll find Ross for you." "Oh, heavens, boy! Can you? Do ma'am. Nonchalantly she took the coat then. Get him and bring him here." GARRETT FOLSOM'S SISTER, THE HOTEL THAT EVENING.
