Barry Colvin tells Jimmy that Mary Lowell has broken with Sam Church. They are walking along the street. They see Mary Lowell approaching. Just as Jimmy is raising his hat he spies a familiar figure running for a street car. He wheels suddenly and runs like a mad man. Chapter XLVIL Jimmy, a gloom-shrouded figure in the fog, his pulses racing madly-- whether from fear or excitement he did not know--slowly approached the house where he had seen Kid Divis disappear. He stood now just in front of it. A short flight of steps led up to the front door, another short flight down to the basement entrance. o It was the basement entrance which Divis had used and Jimmy made his cautious way down the steps. He stood just outside the door, his ear Fressed against a panel. But he heard nothing and for just a brief-second he debated whether to try the door and see if he could slip in 'unheard and unseen. But he had a change of mind. "Better look around first," and his voice, 4 low whisper, was eerie-like in the fog. Again he was suddenly cold, his blood running chill. An involunary shiver shook him as he stood in the basement entrance trying to decide on some plan of action that would enable him to see inside the house without himself being discovered. Fleeting "memories came of boy- hood nights before the fireside with thrilling: detective fiction. Surely, he thought, none of it was more hair-rais or perilous than this-- and this, strangely, was real life, It was impossible, and yet i was true. : ! 'He knew, instinctively, that In- side this house was the secret to those mysterious warnings he had received; to Olga Maynard's fate; to Jensen's whereabouts; even to his father's murder. "If only this place wasn't so fat Yrom nowhere," he complained. "Foolish to try anything alone. Even more foolish to take the time tq. get police out here. They might r out." He. thought of running to the nearest house and asking for help. Relieved After Remedies g he | Ontario Lady 1s Very Enthusiastic About Dodd's Kidney Pills, Mrs. P.

He peered at the dark- ness within, but saw moihing, end the silence was oppressive and fear- ful.' 4 Slowly he made his way around to the side--the side¢' whence he had seen the light shining down the road. The light was still there, casting a dull glow through a drawn shade. Jimmy bent down and looked. He thought: "If anyone comes between the light and the window, I'll see his shadow." . He could detect a low murmur of voices, but they seemed far away. And no one moved between the light and the window. There was just that dim, unfriendly glow through the shade. He strained forward, listening, and suddenly he thought he heard a voice rising ow a note of anger. And, while he listened, the voic ceased. There was a brief silence, and then from the room came the sound of a woman's scream. as He checked the cry that sprang to] his own lips. The voice was\ Maynard's. He turnéd Should he run for assistance, should he 'try 40 enter: the house alone? Would it do any good? It seemed so foolhardy, and yet--God! ~--Qiga had cried out for help. She needed hin, As if in answer to his question, the cry came again. "This time it was not a screa but a low moan. "God help us!®he cried. "I'm go- ing in," and he ran as swiftly as he Olga around helplessly. could around to the front entrance. | Before the door he paused. Should he try to rush boldly in--maybe by breaking a vindow--and trust to the value of a surprise attack? Or should he try by stealth? "Hurry, hurry. Do something." His voice was a desperate whisper, He cautiously tried the knob -of the door that had opened in answer to Divis' knock. He was somehow not surprised to find that it turned. Divis had pot locked the door be- hind him, ' He stealthily turned the knob all the way, and then, with a silent open without a betraying squeak, he slowly pushed it open until there was enough space for him to push his body past. Carefully he closed it behind him, felt the latch click home with omly a faint sound, and stood in semi- darkness in a hallway. To his left, the door swung open, was an unlighted 'room. Jimmy judged that it might be a living room or, more probably, one of those old-fashioned basement "parlors." Just ahead of him, and to his right, was a flight of stairs with thin carpet nearly. worn through. And a little farther down the 'hall, and to his left, a door stood ajar, letting a broad beam of Mght sift into the darkness. He judged it was the room through whose window he had first seen the light and outside which he had just been listening. He heard voices--a man's heavy bass, another man's voice, higher pitched. He had heard that first one, It was Jensen. And he heard the la- bored, catchy breathing of a woman trying to suppress her sobs. Then carefully, his hand support- ing him against the wall, he tip- toed down the hall and peered into the room, taking pains to keep clear of the beam of light. There, sitting in a chair, his back to the door, was Kid Divis. He had taken off his coat, but his cap still perched on the back of his head. Directly oppusite. Diyls was .Olga, likewise sitting in a chair. Her head was down on her breast. Jimmy could not be sure, but he thought her position indicated she was held in the chair, possibly by a rope avound her arms. And Jensen was standing. He held in his hand a heavy g.ass tum- bler, half filled with whiskey, or what Jimmy took for whiskey. He drained it and set it down. He turn- ed to Olga, his face brutal with drunkenness. "Stop your snifflin'," he growled. He raised a heavy paw threatening. 1 i Jimmy stiffened. If he should strike her he would cast everything to' the winds and rush blindly in. It was more than he could bear. But Jensen changed his mind. His hand fell to his side and he shrugged, poured himself amother drink. ! "Go easy, Ike," said Divis. "Ain't ya had enough yet?" "Aw shut up!" came from Jen- sen, thickly. "Y' make me sick." Jimmy retreated slowly along the wall. He found himself again before the.door that opened on the living room, His foot--Iluckily, it made no noise--came in contact with a hard object on the floor.

Divis was still seated in the chair with his" back to the door, his feet comfortably propped on the bare table. He was sipping slowly from the heavy tumbler than Jensen Had been using. As silently as a cat Jimmy moved. He could still hear Jensen's voice, muffled by the distance, at the phone.
