Before Dr. Squires could re- cover from his surprise I had him cov- ered with my own pistol, while the oth- er one was pointed at my master. I did not know what the latter night attempt to do in his hypnotic state. ‘ "You are caught, doctor," I said as calmly as possible under the circum- stances. “Do not attempt to move or I will shoot you dead.” The €11.111111'111ce pulod :1 t1ifle. and then his 0311. , .xandmed towzud my 1113310131 saw his intention immo- dim 1y. “If you order him to help you.

I decided to cower him into sulnnission if possi- ble. "Well. I guess the game is up." he finally muttered. A look of disgust and hatred entered his 1'3 ("0. “I 111111 :1 s11s11ic10n from the first that you 1111;111t 1111 :1 detective in 11232111311.” he said sccwling at 11111.. “You 811011311 111 11.111 111111.111 on that 8113- picion 1111111211'.” I IOpiiC-{L returning his SCOV'I with :1 $111211}. "11;-:<.111t 1110:1110 young yet, and we may meet again.” During‘ this exchange of words my master had stood perfectly still. star- ing at us as if petrified. He seemed to recognize nobody in the room except the doctor and me. Suddenly Miss Stetson walked up to his si e and, taking one of his hands. said pioudingly: “Charles, what does all this mean ?” But he only returned a stony stare. “Don’t you know me? Charles, I’mâ€"- Oh, God! He does not know me!” She staggered back a few steps, but her agonizing my aioused the dulled senses of the hypnotized man. lie raised his hand to his forehead and mumbled something. Then slowly the feeble (lawn of an- other intelligence seemed to break upon his mind.

Belleâ€"my Belleâ€"I see you. 1”â€" His eyes grew dim. his limbs c01- lapsed, and he fell heavily to the floor. Miss Stetson was by his side in a min- ute, holding his head in her lap. “Go for medical assistance'at once,” I said to Mr. Jaimson, “and bring oth! er help.” “Now that you are caught and there is no way of escape show some mercy to the man whose life you have nearly .wrecked. Give him what medical help you can until another doctor comes.” . At first he returned my command with a sardonic grin, and then a spark of a better nature in him changed his mind. The man tremblingly made haste to obey, and then I spoke to Dr. Squires sternly: “Yes. I’ll do it for Charles. but not to oblige you,” he said. He took some brandy from the shelf and poured it down the throat of the unconscious man. In this sudden read- iness to help my master I thought there lurked a double motive. He was only waiting for a chance to make a break for liberty, but I kept him so carefully covered with my pistol that he did not have the opportunity. I followed him wherever he went and once ordered him not to leave the room. “But I need some medicine,” he said. “We’ll do without the medicine,” I replied, “for another physician will be here in a moment to relieve you.” In half an hour Mr. J aimson brought a doctor and two oflicers. While the latter took Dr. Squires in charge the rest of us devoted our attention to Mr. Goddard, who seemed lost in a heavy ‘ He fell heavily to the floor.

The doctor said that a high fever was raging in him and that he would he in a critical condition for wool-m. All that day and the next he tossed rost- lessly upon his bed, talking exoiimuy in bi! dreams. but recognizing no one. Meanwhile Dr. Squires was lodged in prison, and thither I went to see him. He was totally subdued now and resigned to his position. Luck had turned against him, and he vas not averse to confessing everything. In fact, he prided himself upon the smart game he had played. CHAPTER XXIV. ‘LL that night my mas- ter remained uncon- scious. It was not safe to remove him from ' the house. and we ; ’ made him as comfort- , ’24 able as possible in the doctor’s own bed. Miss Stetson and I ; took turns in watching by his side. He made his confession first to me, Which he afterward submitted in writing and signed in the presence of three witnesses. In his own spoken words, however, it sounded more in- teresting than when he wrote it out. and as such I will repeat the essential parts of it. “You were smart to catch me,” he said, “and I admire you for it. I thought I was alert enough to throw everybody off the track. In fact. you were the only one who ever suspected me. Now, he fui ' :md to“ me how you got your first clow.” “I Visited your house some time ago and discovered the collection of stolen gmds,” I replied, “and neither you nor your servant was Wise enough to find it out." “He was always a fool,” he ejacu- lated. "But when did you first realize that I was h3'pnotizing Charles and using: him as a tool for my purpose.” I lashed a little, but answered truthfully: “I never suspected until that night in Lhe office when you hypnotized him l'iy‘llt before us. ” “Ha. ha! Then I had one point ahead of you!" he 1a shed. “‘1.'es I new er suspected it.” “‘1.'<ll.iL' s all over new, and I’ve had lots (11‘ <‘«.\'<‘:iie111eut out of it.

While in his hypnotic state I made Charles roh house after house in the neighborhood. He brought all the silver plate, jewels and money to me. He was so shrewd when hypnotized that I had little fear of his ever being caught. His faculties were almost supernatural in their sen- sitiveness. When he woke up again the next morning. he never remember- “When I had collected a small for- tune in stolen goods. I determined to ship them off to some foreign country and then go there and dispose of them. giving as an excuse for my absence that a distant relative had died and left me his wealth and that my pres- ence was required to settle up the es- tate. Then I meant to return and mar- ry Miss Stetson if possible. I believe that I was learning to love her for her own sake. I certainly thought more of her than of any other woman I ever met. To gain her hand I told her that Charles was suffering from the incipi- ent form of leprosy and that I was de- voting my time to curing him. This I knew would turn her from him in hor- ror and that she would never dare mar- ed anything of tthe preceding night’s work. “But you can tell , MiSS‘ Stetson that there is no more leprosy 1n ms system than in yours or mine and that he has no inherited disease of any kind that she need be worried about.
