'. \ CHAPTER XVI--Continued. * Reassured, Inspector McGee spilled on her. Usually that emile, directed On Rosalie Le Grange, brought a re­ sponsive flash of coquettish dimples and sparkling teeth. But it seemed like trying to fire dead ashes now. Her (face was serious and drawn. Sud­ denly it entered his mind that she looked her age. Unacquainted with that defiance of time by which a charming woman may be fifty in one iminute and twenty in the next, he pon­ dered on this with all his heavy men­ tal processes. And suddenly it came to Inspector McOee with a kind of bhock that he regarded her all the PQore tenderly therefore. It was a fcrity that such as Rosalie Le Orange (should lose her young looks. "Of course you're goin' to leave it to me! Now come on!" said Rosalie ^Le Grange, breaking into his medita­ tions. The two city detectives and the one Kolice matron were waiting silently in osalie Le Grange's room. McGee tocked the door behind him. Rosalie ^closed the transom. 1 -Is this place safe for talk, sow?" f "Perfect," said Rosalie. "I've tried ;• But talk low, to be sure." t The inspector opened the bag. i^.

SLeary. This here lady is running this jthing, until I tell you different. Got •your notes and pencils, Kennedy? All Iright. Mrs. Le Grange, you tell 'em tJust what you want." When Rosalie had rehearsed her ttra-ma, with careful provision tor un­ foreseen emergencies, when her forces had scattered--Humter to the base­ ment, Kennedy to Miss Harding's roora, Mrs. Leary, impersonating the nkaid. to the front door--Rosalie stood, alone; with Inspector McGee. "\frell,, everything's ready," said the lasjpector, "and time's precious." ® . "Yes; I'm goin* in a minute," she responded; but her voice was dead. "I feel--like I was going to be oper­ ated on. That's how I feel." "Aw, brace up!" said Martin McGee. Rosalie did not answer at once. Her eyes, sweeping th^ rooija tp avoid direct gaze lighted on the dresser, where stood a photograph of Con­ stance Hanska--a solicited gift." She fixed her gaze on that; and the fallen lines of her face lifted with determina­ te. • "Yes," she said, "I'm goin* to brace Up." . j { . She started "upstairs" to tWkt room on the third Hoof back, the center of the sinister web which she had made of this, her dwelling-place, so straJigely acquired, so strangely used. In that web struggled a half-blind, half-distracted fly, toward which she, the spider, was now creeping. Some such comparison may have struck Ros­ alie, for she shuddered twice in her slow progress. And these were not the assumed shudders which an­ nounced her fatee "control." Rosalie knocked at Miss Estrilla's door. "Come in!" cried the invalid, more eagerly than her wont. And as Rosa­ lie entered, "Oh, I was expecting you! Can you--will you--today?" "I've been puttin' all the power I have into this thing," Baid Rosalie Le Grange; "you've no idea how I've tried. I was awake half the night, just gettin' into touch. This is my last Bit- tin' with you for ever so long, Miss Estrilla. I can feel it goin'. When I'm playin' for all my power, as I've got to now, conditions must be right, you wouldn't mind, would you, if I darkened this room complete? An' let's have a little more air." There was a window, which opened upon the fire escape, at the foot of Miss Estrilla's bed. This window Ro­ salie darkened last of all; but first she raised the sash a foot. "That curtain will blow an' disturb me," she said. "I'm goin' to pin it down." Had Miss Estrilla's soul held any emotions, in that moment, but grief and eagerness--had she been capable just then of suspicion--she might have noted a tiny but significant sound. The fire escape had creaked^a' little, as though a weight had been imposed at the bottom. It creaked again at inter­ vals for the next five minutes, but aft­ erward, usually, when the roar of a passing elevated train drowned all slighter sounds., "Now I'm ready to try," said Rosa­ lie, settling down at the foot of the couch. "Dear, you do look anxious! Don't try to crowd the spirits--that's always the best way--but remember again--this is about the last control that's in me for a month. Be quiet, dearie." Her eyes sought the dis­ tances, her body shook. Then came the change which Miss Estrilla had watched so often, and with such a fas­ cinated eagerness. Rosalie's body re­ laxed and fell backward in the Morris chair. Her lids gradually closed. She breathed as though asleep. "Oh, sad lady again!" babbled Laughing-Eyes, quite suddenly.. She could hear Miss Estrilla shift eagerly on her couch. "I -can't stay long. John; epeaks. He says he wants you quick. John is big and strong/ Good-by, sad lady." Rosalie's breath came hard; her body wrenched; a masculine voice fol­ lowed--the voice which Rosalie always assumed when she impersonated ' Cap­ tain John H. Hanska. "I am here agaio, Margaret; I love you. I am ready to forgive." "Oh, John, thank you--thank God-- you will when you know. For, John, you have so little to forgive, beside what I have already forgiven." As usiu^l Miss Estrilla made reply. "I know. And ^ suffer. But I un­ derstand. First I have told you how little I saw that night. My flesh still clung to me--" Rosalie stopped here and seemed to gather her body together, as though the thing which controlled her was struggling to assert more power. "So I do not know what happened even before I passed out--it came so suddenly--say to me again that you loved me." "So much, John dear, that I cannot tifli you all--" "And I put aside such a love as that for Jewels!" "Yes, John. And when I searched your room--the night I found you there --I would have given them all to you if you had waked and spoken, kindly to me. But you were married--and you would have died soon at the best Oh, why. not before this happened to Juan--" "Was it Juan? I have told you that I could riot see clearly at that time--it is all confused." "Yes, dearest. You could not under­ stand because of the clothes--but dearest, it was Juan who held the knife which went into your body. Oh, forgive him more than me. He is my brother--he did it for me--John, I can't forget his remorse when he came to.me--were you wiatching? Did you mr " v " '^To--I was not awake in spirit yet-- quick"--the voice was growing Weak. "He himself did not understand, then, how you died. He thought the knife killed you. He worked it all out afterward--when I told him about your condition. But then, he said to me: 'My God, I have run a knife into Cap­ tain Hanska!' What is it--what is it!" For Rosalie had leaped from her chair, run up the window shade at the foot of< the bed, thrown the sash wide open. Into the room leaped two men. They ranged themselves beside the couch. "What is it J" screamed Miss Estril­ la again. "These are police detectives," said Rosalie in her natural voice. "They have been listening behind that win­ dow. They've come to find what you know about the death of Captain John H. Hanska." Miss Estrilla gave a little scream which died in a rattle of her throat Her eyes caught at Rosalie. "Traitor!" she managed to gasp before she gave another scream--and fainted, as Rosa­ lie Le Grange expected that she would. Rosalie rushed for water and re­ storatives. "Get right at her as she comes out," she whispered to Inspector McGee in passing. That's the time." "Ain't you going to stay?" inquired McGee. "No. She'll be too busy hatin' me ever to talk. An' there's two things I never want to watch. One's a hang- in', an' the other's the third degree." And by the time that Miss Estrilla was conscious again of the sights and sounds of this, her terrible world, Ros­ alie was gone from the room, and De­ tective Kennedy, police stenographer, wtfo had been listening at the open telltale register of the room below, was with the group of inquisitors about her bed. il ' §S%; P fir FAULT FINDING WAS HIS JOY kf \\ , Junius, God of Mockery, W^s Bap* s wiv-f ' k'l'i Ished From Heaven for CritlcJe- 'my'~ - , Jng Work of the Immortals. ^ 'V-r?'**.. -- v, • -'Have you ever heard a grumbler Uiiled a Momus?

Short­ ly afterward, it is said, Momus died of a broken heart because he could find no flaw in the peerless beauty of Venus. ' A.'% - ^ < V-. v1. i . FeeWa*L*irt. The age and dullness of the miscel­ laneous reading-matter -with which physicians stock the tables of their waiting-rooms have long been a sub­ ject of jest. Here is a story which shows that it might be to the doctor's own interest to supply more enter­ taining reading.

The first brutal processes of the third degree were finished--the third degree, that modern syBtem of torture more terrible than the medieval by just so much as the mind is more sensitive than the body. We do weii, j as Rosalie Le Grange has said, not to witness it Miss Estrilla lies back on the couch, bruised and broken soul, ready now to tell all the truth be­ cause there is in her no more strength to lie. The door has half-opened in the midst of the preliminary proceed­ ings, and into the shadow outside creeps Rosalie Le Grange, to listen with all her ears. The victim on the couch is no mare palq and drawn than Rosalie as she stands there, one hand on the lintel. "Your name and all about yourself first," says Inspector McGee, urging gently now. Let me omit, as the expert police stenographer did, certain expletives, repetitions, divagations, which always mar testimony. * Let me just give the document, as it was filed away in the archives of the New York police de­ partment. ' "My name is Margarita Perec. I am thirty-five years old, and unmarried. I was born in the Island of Trinidad, where I lived all my life. Juan Perez is my half-brother, ten years younger than I. Our father was the same, but my mother was an Englishwoman, my brother's mother was Spanish. My fa­ ther was a cacao grower. He was very rich once, but he lost much of his money. When he died, four years ago, he left my brother the plantations, and me a very small income and the family jewels--they were worth twenty thou­ sand dollars of your money. My brother came into his property when he was twenty-one. He managed poor­ ly; and then he had bad luck. By last summer, he was so near failure that there seemed to be only one way out-- for me to sell my jewels and give him the money. I wanted to do that, but he wouldn't let me make the sacrifice. He saw one more chance to save us. We had rich relatives in Caracas, on a doctor in Harley street, who had written a book on the disease from which I believed I suffered. It was a hot . dhy In July, and I had to walk from near Addison road to Harley street. I( was in a profuse perspira­ tion when I arrived. I had to wait, and on the doctor's table I found the book written by him on 'my disease.' I opened it at random and read: 'The patient who is suffering from this dis­ ease never perspires.' I at once walked out."--London Telegraph. t Sample of Animal Instinct. "When I wis a barefoot lad," -- VI Mr. Dustin Stax, "I had to spend a good deal of time minding the stock on father's farm. I'll never forget the day when father told me to take a rope and hold a couple of bull calveB." "What did they do?" "They scorched my hands with the rope and turned around and stepped on me." "Unruly dispositionsV "No. Wonderful insti«ct. Th«y rec­ ognized me at a glance as >a am? 11 stockholder, and they knew what is the Venezuelan mainland. He -%ent there to see if they would help. He was gone three or four weeks. He sent me only one letter; and it was so. dis­ couraging that I felt sure there was no hope. "Just before that letter arrived, and after Juan left for Caracas, Captain John H. Hanska came to Port of Spain from Antwerp. Though'my father was Spanish, lived in the English fash­ ion; 1 was free to meet men. I met Captain Hanska and fell in love With him. {Here the police stenographer cut corners. In this last, phrase he con­ densed many divagations and evasions on the part of the witriess; indeed, In­ spector Martin McGee, expert inquisi­ tor that he was, spent five minutes in bringing out that simple declaration --and the next.) "He said that he loved me. I be­ lieved him. It was all very quick. Within a week we were secretly en­ gaged. I supposed that he was an American army officer on special duty. And after we were betrothed, I told him about our troubles and my wish to help Juan. My mind was made up by that time--I would sell my jewels be­ fore my brother returned to prevent me. I told this to Captain Hanska. He offered to help. He said that he must go to England the next week, and in England he could sell them to much better advantage than in Port of Spain. I agreed--I trusted him absolutely, yota see. Then he told me that he could dispose of them more easily, and for more money, if he appeared to be the 4>wner. So I made out and signed a bill of sale,-describing in detail every piece to the last ring and pin, and transferring them absolutely to him. Now I know what a foolish thing I did. For that made the jewels his property in law, as surely as though he had bought them from me. "The steamer on which he planned to sail for England--he told me--was due to leave Port .of Spain on Wednes­ day morning. On Monday night he visited me and took away the jewels. He said that he wanted to register them in advance with the purser. He promised to come again on Tuesday night. He did not appear. I learned the next morning that he had ieft on Tuesday for New York. I started for the pier from which the Southampton, steamer sails, in ordor to see if there was any mistake. On the way, T met a friend of the family who had been waiting to warn me. He had found out about Captain Hanska's career in Cara­ cas. He proved to me that the captain was an adventurer and almost a pro­ fessional gambler. Then I understood. I told no one about the jewels until Juan came back; but I wrote a letter to Captain Hanska in care of the steamship company. Somehow, it > reached him. He answered it with a cold letter, claiming the jGWGIS abso­ lutely and stating that he bought them from me. ' "That arrived just after Juan came back from Caracas. A?uafc% had not succeeded in raising money. The plan­ tation went into bankruptcy. That Is the matter with my eyes. They had always been troubleBome. But now I gave them a real disease by weeping. (Here, as Miss Estrilla made her statement, she spoke broken phrases about another loss. The police ques­ tioned her minutely to discover what she meant. Upon finding that she re­ ferred merely to tile loss of a whole heart's love, they dismissed this part of her statement as immaterial, and did not enter it upon the record.) 1 "I told Juan, of course. He was very kind to me. He did not reproach me. But we could do nothing, he foundi. Captain Hanska had landed in Ne^ York--the passenger lists showed that It was certain that he had smuggled* the jewels into thd United States with- out paying duty; and we confirmed that afterward. We decided to go to the United States and see if we could get them back--if not the jewels, at least the bill of sale--because if the diamonds were in our possession with the bill of sale destroyed, we could prove by half the people in Port of Spain that they were ours. We were safe in stealing them from him--per­ fectly safe. For he would not dare complain to the New York police, since if he claimed them publicly, we could have him arrested for smug­ gling. "Juan thought that all out. We took what little money we had left and started for New York, telling our friends that we were going to settle in New Orleans. Juan wrote to our uncles in Caracas and secured the New York agency for a small asphalt com­ pany of thefrs. That was 4one to con- ANT EATERS EAT WAY BILLS ceal our «real reason for being here. Oi$ the voyage, my eyes grew worse, I cried so much. I was very ill with them when I landed. "Juan and I took rooms apart. We had learned enough about Captain Hanska to know where we might look for him. Juan traced him to Mrs. Moore's boarding house. It seemed certain that Captain Hanska had not sold the jewels yet, else he would not be living so cheaply. The first thing waB to find where they were. Finally Juan and I formed a "plan and acted upon it. ' "Juan had discovered that the back room on the top floor of Mrs. Moore's boarding house was vacant Captain Hanska lived below; there was no good reason for him ever to come up on that flobr. 11 took the vacant room, calling myself Miss Estrilla, as you know. Juan had been watching Cap­ tain Hanska like a detective. He moved me in one day when the cap­ tain had gone to Staten island. My presence in the house was safer than it may seem to you. I did not leave my room even for meals, since my eyes were really in very bad condition. Then, I wore dark glasses, an eye- shade and a heavy scarf about my head--I do not believe my own mother would have known me. Captain Han­ ska had never seen Juan or his picture --it just happened that tbere were ho photographs of him in -our house at Port of Spain. "Juan lived in an apartment hotel. We were in communication 'all the time by telephone. He was careful to avoid the captain when he visited me. It was all dangerous, for at any time we might be discovered. But we had our plan--I was to enter Captain Han­ ska's room with a pass-key and search for the jewels or the bill of sale. Whenever I made this Bearch, Juan was to be following Captain Hanska. If the captain showed signs of re­ turning, Juan was to call me up on the telephone--the ringing of the bell in my room, which informed, me from downstairs that I was wanted on the extension telephone by fay door, was to be my warning signal. I could hear that bell from Captain Hanska's room. There could be no mistake, becauso Juan waq the only person in New York who would be telephoning to me. "But when I tried Captain Hanska's door with my pass-key, I found that be had installed a new patent spring lock. The next time Juan called, he looked over the house. He found that you could enter Captain Hanska's room from the ftre escape--and that' you could get on to the fire escape from the window of the lumber room across the hall from mine. was § "My Nam* Is Margaret Peres never locked. It was only a of prying open the catch on Captain Hanska's window. One night about a week before Captain Hanska died, I began the search.

Instead of a regular baby the passengers saw what appeared to be three-quartere Infant and one-quarter tin pail. "It's got its head caught in a tin pail," cried the mother.

Chicago.---Who has ever. heard of Chicago's army of the Unknown Rich? PosBibly no one, for until statistics were available such as have been flooding the office of the collector of internal revenue in connection with the new income tax law there was available no Information which went to the seat of individual fortunes !n the way this law does. But now for the first time is beginning to be known the extent and strength of the ranks of the Unknown Rich. Persons whose names have never found their way into the society columns and who are strange in the city's acknowledged financial circles filed schedules of In­ comes of $10,000, $15,000, $20,000, even $50,000. The filers of these schedules, some of them, give strange foreign names, and, as their places of residence, streets that the fashionable and known rich of the city probably never heard of. It- is not a matter of ten or twenty schedules by such per­ sons which have been filed. Literally there are hundreds of them. "If only the names and Incomes oi these unkhown rich could be made public ,and the story of the acquire­ ment' of their fortunes published a -'new light on who's who in the city from a financial point of view would be sh^d," said Collector Samuel L. Fitch. "Little romance probably would be found in their lives, but as examples of shr^d investors and hard workers they might be held up as shining lights In any company." It was no uncommon sight In the collector's office to Bee a man of fifty or so, wearing shabby coat and trous­ ers and soft working shirt, whose hands were heavy and gnarled and who had a three-day growth of beard, step up to the counter and file a sched­ ule showing an income of $4,000 or $5,000. More than one elderly woman in plair. clothes and a shawl over her1 head went to the clerks and filed her schedule along with the schedules of the city's men of acknowledged finan­ cial position.
