CHAPTER XVIL A Pair of Thieves. Two men, late on that February afternoon, were, hastening eagerly along converging roytes to the bach elor home of Bruxton Sands. One was Sands himself The other was Lieutenant Britis. of Headquarters The millionaire could hardly wal to return te his luxurious suite in the St. Barnabas apartment house. for he expected to find upon his arrival a note that should decide tie whole future of his heart. Returning to his office early ii the day, after the tim spent with Mrs, Missionsr, there ha come upon nim, ag never before his more or laga placid wooing of th widow, a realization of wha! his lo « for ber meaut to him. Sands was ot given to excess of emofion. English by decent. very. Brittistk in many Ways, educaied in one of the grea public achoolg of the Unite. Kingdom he had bean traiped from boyhood to, believe that the. sureat proof of man's estaie, for which he was im- patient, lay in never giving way to | feeling. His round head, broad shoul ders, and strength of bone and sinew had carried him through school days that would have broken a boy with the smallest degree of temperament. A university course in Anjerica and three postgraduate years at Heidel j berg had hardenad the glaze the Eng: lish scholastic training had baked up- ob his loner self. Superimposed on all those had followed the deindividu- alizing exparience of every msn in the stress of indusiriml strife, and this had finished the process. Sands, '80. far as-externals went, was about Fas impressionable as a totem pole; [but deep within the man, in the still réaches where his housing s threw oft the veneer of civilization, he plunged into a wilderngas of fancy that was his principal relaxation, snd it was there that there existed sentiments ¥ | dg chivalrous!y romafitic ar any that | aver actuated the fiiest squires of es i ntidnt of all his i B.Smation was is love of Doris Lf ) been fon o A hg her ph as the wa naire, Mis§ioner, ad from i ¥ a of her early widowhood he oval her with an the devotion of youlk Lacon pale indeed, A logical paradox was the result | of his tardy recogiiiion of hig heart attitude toward her.

Why are you wasting To in pursuing ail this additiona) wealth --hours that you might devote to the wining of your lite's desixe?' So insletent was that inner questioning that in the end it reduced his resolve to a negligble quantity that dwindled beyond the vanishing pot Almost in the widst of a telephonic. conversation with a man in Chicago following a directors' meeting, the millionaire abruptly flung the re ceiver on the hook, thrust himself into an overcoat of fur, but of gossamer lightness, apized his hat and stick, and, disdaining all vehicles in his cagerness, strode swiftly up Broad way 'at a pace that took him to the Parthenon-sculptured entrance of the St. Barnabas apartment house. Britz walked there too. Bat it was '0 think, and not to regain comtrol of his emotions. that he chose normal ocomotion in preference (nv cab or carriage. It had been a busy day even for him that his thoughts required aarshaling his logic called for ad iustment, and his analysis démanded ew setting of the screws to restore it to its finer focus. Britz did most of his thinking on his feet and as he eyed up Broadway, on the slide oppo- alte Bruxton Sands, he thought vigor ously, swiftly, clearly. He reviewed he whole day'a experiences. snd he felt that he still was very fur from the solution of the Midsioter mystery, but that he had made great Strides heiween the rising and the setting of that sun which evén now was merg: ing its light with tae anticipatory Yeams of the city's dusk. He bad found out whe had made the fraudu lent Maharanee diamond. Strangely enough, the maker had performed bis task in the belief that he was manu fagturing, net a false, byt a gepuine diamond, but that belief was only a detail; it did. not affect the value of the detective'a conclusion that the man who progured the making of the imitation stone had done so with the single intent of substituting it fer the real gem.
