SYNOPSIS Despite the police guard placed in her home by Commissioner Thatcher Colt, Lola Carewe. suspected “higher-up” of a jewel thief ring, is I mysteriously murdered. Dr. Hugh j Baldwin gives heart failure as the cause of death. Those present at the time, besides Colt and his aides, were Lola’s mother, Mrs. Carewe; the butler, maid, and Vincent Rowland, an attorney. Colt feels the young man whose photograph adorns Lola's dresser — and w hose identity she refused to reveal beyond j 1 his first name. “Basil”—is connected with the mystery. At the mention as his name, Mrs. Carewe becomes hysterical, saying Lola was a cruel beast and never loved Basil. : Christine Quires. Ixila's gnest. ean- f not be located, although the elevator boy claims she returned around midnight with her escort, Guy Everett, and Colt found the bag she carried. I Colt phones Everett’s apartment after 3 a. m. and learns Everett has not arrived. A clue in the form of a small wooden box is picked up under Lola's window. Chung, the butler, is questioned. CHAPTER THIRTEEN FT3IIE homely yellow man began I by telling nothing. With his “ pumpkin-like bald head gleam- ! ing with moisture, and his gold teeth shining between his parted lips, the ill - favored Chung walked t<V the drawing • room, hands at his side, and stood deferentially waiting to be questioned. His answers were explicit. if prolix. He had not seen Miss Christine Quires return on 1 this, the three hundred and sixtyI fifth night of the latest year of the ! Christian calendar He had spent the entire evening in the kitchen, shelling peas and reading a paperbound life of a cinema actress of great popularity. He was ’ familiar with all of the twelve : rooms in the pent-house and knew of no hiding-place that Colt might have overlooked, where Christine ' might have remained concealed. But the Commissioner prodded on, hoping still to uncover something behind Chang's Oriental magniloquence. “What is your full name?” “Chung Wong Duk." “And where were you born?” ! “Peiping.” “Where educated?” “Oxford.” “Indeed! Os what class were I your people?” “My father was an exporter of I silks.” Colt looked at the butler ly“Then w'.iat is a man from such a family doing as a butler in the United States?" Chung inclined his head forward gracefully. “My country is not so old-fash-ioned as many people imagine. In my country if a young man is unusually intelligent, like myself, he is placed in the service of the gov-1 ( emment. like myself, to trave! far I and wide and observe foreign ways ; and report the habits of other countries." i “So you are a spy." b “No, sir. A spy is a military ob- , | server 1 am not in the service of i j the army. I am a civilian observer.” “Then why do you work in the household of Lola Carewe?” Chung’s face was impassive, as' ; he replied: “To observe the manners of lower middle-elass Americans.” Colt shot a glance at Dougherty. ! then hastened on with his questions : “How long have you worked for| i Miss Carewe?" “Since she was married to Mr. I Gifford For Mr Gifford 1 worked; two years before he (named Miss ’ i Carewe. Poor Mr. Gifford, j “Why poor Mr Gifford’?” “He died." “Then you came with his widow ? i Did you like working for her?” “Sometimes.” Boy Makes Visits, Habitual (Stockton.

flB P*""" ■,c. He had spent the entire evening in the kitchen, shelling peas and reading a paper-bound life of a movie queen.

“Only sometimes? What was] wrong other times?” “Too much work. Always dinner parties, luncheon parties, late suppers—l have no time read Li Pol” “But she was kind to you?” “Yes.” “Have you any knowledge of any of h«r enemies?” “That is not my business.” “You do not know anyone with whom she quarreled?” “Oh, yes. 1 know that.” “With whom. Chung?” “It was a very strange household, Mr. Commissioner. People suspected each other. For instance —I had charge of the parrot and dog. I fed both. 1 did not poison I them. Yet I felt Miss Lola sus-, pected me.” “Did she tell you so?” blurted' Dougherty. “No. sir—but her glances were .' like indictments. I believe Mrs. Ca- I rewe was afraid of Miss Lola. TheyJ very frequently quarreled. I even heard Miss Lola say to her mother,] ■‘l want to get rid of you forever.’ Is that away for a daughter to speak to the parent she should honor?” Chung’s question was entirely rhetorical. His tone was answer i enough. Like a poet reciting his (own verses, he hastened on: I “You ask me if I have known, i Miss Lola to quarrel. 1 say that I j ! have known little else. She made ' isany men desperate— that ! know. 1 II am facing the law 1 must tell > ' the truth, so help me God! I heard | .one man threaten her life.” “Who was that?” barked Dougherty excitedly. “Guy Everett, the theatrical geni tieman." “When?” “A wee k or so ago — in this room." “Where were you?" “In my kitchen.*’ “And you heard him say what?" “ ‘I wish I could strike you dead.’ ” “Hear anything else?” “No. sir—that was the only time . his voice was raised high enough !for me to hear." | “Then," said Thatcher Colt, “you (don’t know what they were quar--1 reling about?” “No. sir.” I “With whom else did Miss Lola I quarrel?” he was to come for the last dressing he broke a finger and mangled another in a chicken feed grinding mill, the eby as‘«':rlng him c!f of several more visits to the ..cspital. o— ——— Mayflower Okch for Governor Harf ford.

' “That old gentleman whom you Het go home ” “Mt. Rowland?” “She quarreled with him.” “When?” “Here—again in this room—to- ! night.” “You heard it?” “All!” “What did they quarrel about?” i “I heard Mr. Vincent Rowland tell her that she was playing a dan- ' gerous game. That the police would get on to her. That not everyone would stand for what she was doing.” “And what was she doing?” iasked Colt tensely, as Dougherty, I I Fallon, and 1 drew nearer, i But the Chinaman only shrugged. “I wish 1 knew,” he confessed with a gold-toothed .smile. “I believe in law. I believe in order. I am telling these facts about my ■ i mistress because 1 believe in law ■ land order.” “Keep all this to yourself," ad- j . monished Colt. “I will talk with . 'you further.” He was dismissing the Chinese witness because at that moment \ had come a clamor at the door. The ' detail from Headquarters was arriving. Colt quickly dispatched I Chung to his kitchen, as there marched into that exquisite apartj ment a group of picked experts I front the New York Homicide I j Squad. Leading the delegation was Assistant Chief-Inspector Flynn, in , command of all the detectives of | [the New York Police Department. j , Flynn was the second ranking officer of the entire force, occupying ithe post originally created for Edward P.
