Then the startling announcement is made that Folsom had been stabbed' to death in the water. Ross, his valet, is questioned, as are Barron and his wife, but no light is shed on the mystery. Anastasia Folsom, eccentric and masterful sister of the dead man, arrives and takes command. At the inquest it is established that the death weapon was a pichaq, an Oriental knife, and that it and its scabbard had been purchased on the boardwalk. It is aleo brought out in the inquest that Folsom's fortune is to be divided between his sister, Roger Neville and a nephew, Daniel Pslton. Anastasia jinncunccs she will engage a private detective. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY. CHAPTER XVII. The ler glared at her, but as she, of course, had a right to engage a private detective if she chose, he made^no response to her irritating "I would like to hear from those who were in conversation with Mr. Folsom just before he went into the ocean," said Hubbard, "Mr. Neville, you were in his party?" "Yes," Neville said, stepping forward. "We went in the water together." "There were others with you?" "Two ladies, Mrs. Barnaby and Mrs. Valdon." "Yes. And tell me now, did you rotice anything unusual about Mr. Fc horn's manner? Anything apprehensive?" -Absolutely nothing of the sort. Mr. Folsom was in the beat of spirits and ready to enjoy his ocean dip with the rest of us." "You and ha were business part-I am told." •t partners:' we were in the company." What company v rille?' 5 that, I . Ne "The Royal Realty Company. But Mr. Folsom was president, I am merely vice-president" "Ah, yes. Real estate?" "Yes, a Chicago concern. Now that . Folsom is dead, much of the busi- what was going on. But then I saw the two guards carrying someone ashore and I recognized at once that it was Garrett Folsom." "You were near enough to see him then 'I didn't see his face, but I recognized his bathing suit, gray with black stripes, and I felt sure it was he. I went immediately to where the ladies of our party stood, holding the rope, and they were almost overcome with fear that Mr. Folsom had suffered a stroke or an attack of some sort. I advised them to go ashore at once, and suggested that we all go to our bathhouses and dress in order to be of any possible assistance to our "And that is what you di "Yes. They agreed that best thing to do, and we v ed with the tolerance one might show small chilr or an irresponsible mentality. Had there been any such," Anastasia Folsom informed him, "I should not now be here listening to this futile querying, but I should be after the :pect and getting him behind bars! No, I found no letter or paper that gave the least hint of which way to look for his murderer. But that in no way deters me from continuing the search. I shall yet find the villain and shall see to it that justice is "You will hold those papers and letters subject to the investigation of the police, madam. We will send our detectives to examine them shortly." "You may, sir. No one will be more glad than I if you can And any hint of a way to look for light or matter." "Mrs. Barnaby," was the next witness called, and the Duchess, though trembling with nervousness and barrassment, walked steadily up to the designated chair. "There is no use in repeating testimony," Coroner Hubbard said, speaking gently, as he noticed her quivering lip and trembling hand3. "Just tell me if you noticed anything about Mr. Folsom's manner or speech that was unlike himself, or betrayed fear or nervousness of any sort." "No, I did not," the Duchess plies, relieved at the easy question. "But I knew Mr. Folsom only slightly, not so well as the other members of our little party. You see, he was friend of the others. I only met hi the night before--before last." "You stood next him in the ocean' "Not at the time he--he went under. I was next him but one, then.' "Who was next him?" "Mrs. Valdon." "And on the other side?" "I am told a Mr. Barron was. But I do not know Mr. Barron." "That will do, Mrs. Barnaby. Mrs. Valdon next!" Carmelite came forward, looking so beautiful that many present gave an involuntary gasp of admiration. Though in no way over-dressed, her bright-colored beach cape, falling the! from her graceful shoulders, gave her oon the look of a Spanish princess.

Now, as his business associate and as co-official in his company, are you in charge of Mr. Folsom's papers and letters that are down here with him?" Before Roger Neville could answer Miss Folsom spoke up. "Indeed he is not.

"You have his rooms at the hotel?' "Has anything been touched?" She gave him a glance that was almost pitying. "Everything has been touched," she said. "Last night, before I slept, I went over every one of his letters and papers as well as all his clothes and personal property of all kinds."

Melamed, famous Jewish scholar and editor, comes to the defense of Jesus in a leading article published in The Reflex, a new magazine devoted to the secular interests of the Jewish people. Dr. Melamed upholds Jesus against i attack by the Rev. John Haynes Holmes, pastor of the Christian Community Church of New York City. Dr. Holmes, a Christian minister, said in a recent sermon that the "religion of the future will have nothing to do with Jesus. It will have no use for the Bible or for any church. It will be based on truth only, truth as found by man and not as revealed by God." Dr. Melamed says that Dr. Holmes is a Philistine and a false prophet. "As Jews, we have no attitude to Jesus. No Jew has unless he is a Jesus Rabbi," says this Jewish scholar, "but as contemporaries of Dr. Holmes, we have our own thoughts about the incarnation of the Christian myth. Jesus achie-ved what no other mortal ever has or ever will achieve. He became the central figure of the world's history, tho very embodiment of anti-Caesar. Anti-Caesar became the son of God. There are many anti-Caesars to-day. There were many anti-Caesars, one, two, or BOO years ago, but Jesus of Nazareth, the humble Jew, was the first anti-Caesa- In history. As a reward, he was vated to the position of the Son of God--the highest reward ever received by a mortal for a great mortal feat. The reward killed Jesus for the Jews. He is not acceptable to us and never will be. Jewish monotheism rejects not only doctrines but even symbols liable to becloud Its purity. "The Son of God Is a blot upon Jewish monotheism. But the fact that Jesus is not acceptable to the Jews does not warrant a Christian Minis-attempt to relegate him to religious mummydom." "Because Jesus was the greatest example of pure religion without any admixture of ethics and politics, he Impressed himself so deepiy upon the shivering souls of a world tortured by Caesar that he became Christ," continues Dr. Melamed. 'Since nobody claims that the Bible a book of science, its proposed rejection on the ground that, it doesn't contain science is a display of Babbit-ism," Dr. Melamed concludes. "While the "Bible is not a book of science, it book of truth, not th.-> relative truth as found by man but eternal truth as discovered by genius, by men who thought in terms of eternity, whose power of intuition enabled the guess the beginning and visualize the end of all things." The Rev. Dr. Holmes is making the istake of all the gnostics through the ages, claims Dr. Melamed. The Bible will retain its hold on the mind In fact, he writes, "Science today differs vastly from the science of one thousand years ago. He who believes that science is the incarnation of the constant and permanent in the flight of phenomena is unscientific."
