“MURDER of the NIGHT CLUB LADY”

THE: NEW THATCHER COLT DETECTIVE: MYSTERY

SYNOPSIS Lola C«rcw», 'The Night Club Lady”, is myMetimisly murdered in her penthouse apartment at three o'clock New Year’s morning. An hour later, the body of Lola’s guest, Christine Quires, is found in Lola’s room. Christine had been kilrad first and her body hidden. Dr. Hugh Baldwin attributes both deaths due to heart failure. Guy Everett Christine’s New Year’s Eve escort, claims he brought her home at 12:15 and then went riding, alone, on the Motor Parkway. Mrs. Carewe, Ix>la’s mother, denies seeing Christine return. Police Commissioner Thatcher Colt discounts District Attorney Dougherty’s theory that Lola was killed by a jewel thief ring she headed and that Christine met the same fate for knowing too much. Vincent Rowland. Lola's lawyer, discloses that Everett loved Lola and was jealous of Dr. Baldwin. The Commissioner telephotos a picture of a young man. named Basil, found on Lola's dresser, to the Paris Prefect of Police requesting that he identify it and investigate Lola’s past. The police are on the trail of Christihe’s brother. Edgar, who left his Rochester home for New York after receiving a telegram New Year’s Eve. Christine was to have inherited wealth shortly. Dr. Multooler. the medical examiner, contradicts Dr. Baldwin's statement that heart failure caused the deaths. CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE •V I vHERE was no indication of a I history of old heart trouble? In either girl ?” “None whatever The girls’ hearts were sound as a dollar.” “But Doctor Baldwin told us Lola had suffered from a weak heart.” “Something wrong there, Mr. Colt. I know damn well that her heart could not have suddenly gone haywire and caused the condition I found. The heart muscle constrictions in both girls were simply unbelievable.” “Have you no theory at all as to what caused the constriction of the heart muscles?” asked Colt. “I admit it would look like some foreign cause — poison — something external that had just got into the system either the minute before you found her, or sometime afterward," declared the Assistant Medical Examiner stoutly. “But I went all over them again — even shaved their heads—there was no trace of poison, and furthermore there was no skin puncture anywhere except, on Lola Carewe's arm, the tiny hole made by Doctor Baldwin’s hypodermic needle. And that’s been analyzed down here. It was absolutely innocent—the solution of adrenalin was absolutely harmless!” Colt cleared his throat unhappily. “Now, Doctor Multooler,” he said, “please don’t take what I am going; to say as a criticism. And I am sorry to ask you to work any more, after the pace you’ve been going. But this much 1 know — unless I am making the biggest blunder of my life, there has to be a puncture somewhere on the body of Christine Quires Will you look again?” “Mr Commissioner!” The voice of Doctor J. L. Multooler rang with injury qnd reproach. “You know you can count on me!” he cried earnestly. “Os course I’ll look again. Maybe I’ll find something this time. And I’m all the more willing, Mr. Gplt, because — even though I have failed to find anything — I know this is murder!” “What makes you say that?" "That belt you found!” “Belt?” "Strap, I mean—the strap with the buckle on it!” “What did they find?” urged Colt, his voice charged with eagerness. “Mr. Colt, they round on the leather of that strap a number of i microscopic pieces of human skin.

b Isl I Ibail •s "Mr. Colt,” he declared, "I have come here, hounded by my conscience, to make a confession.”

> There is no doubt that the strap was around the throat of Christine i Quires!” So—this explained the diabolical . markings on the dead girl’s throat! • But what did that make clear? “ “Could she have been choked to [ death?” asked Thatcher Colt. "Absolutely not!” declared Doc- • tor Multooler, emphatically. “You will try again?” begged i Colt. ‘ “At once, Mr. Colt.” “Thank you,” said Thatcher Colt ! crisply. 1 “Happy New Year,” caroled the ' autopsist as he hung up. i There was a baffled glint in the eyes of Thatcher Colt as he turned from the telephone and repeated ■ what he had heard to District At- ■ tomey Dougherty. “How was the thing done?” he i demanded aloud, as he sat back and i filled his pipe. “There are no really ! new methods in crime. But I can’t remember a single case that resembles this one!” Then, with a philosophical sigh, i he added: “However, we have only started.” Further comment was held up by entrance of the black Arthur push- . ing a breakfast table on wheels. The ', sight and smell of that meal sud- ’ denly made me realize that we had • been working all night and that I, '■ for one. was ravenous. 1 In silence we began to eat. There ’ was creamed chicken on toast, hot ! rolls and marmalade, and the ex- ! quisite coffee which Colt’s butler grinds and boils with such loving artistry; the smell of that coffee is like an incense in my memory. After his third cup of that priceless beverage,-and a voracious attack on the chicken, Dougherty leaned back, beaming brightly. When at last he spoke, his conversation had nothing to do with the crime. Instead, Dougherty began to talk of his shooting lodge in the Adirondack's of the ways of wild game in fog and sunshine, and the joys of living the hermit s life, which Doughertv, who had been married three times and had eleven children, could hymn with gusto. Colt responded in kind, enthusing over the "fishing near the shores of Cape Cod, wherel he has Mg suffiiier home In this i vein the talk rolled on, until Ar- ‘ thur interrupted us with an an-1 nouncement: ♦

“There is a gentleman downstairs and he would like to see Mr. Colt right away, and he says it’s about a murder case of a girl named Miss Christine, and he says he has something to confess. And he says his name is Guy Everett.” For a full Ynoment, none of us spoke. Then Colt reached for his pipe and murmured: “You may send up Mr. Guy Everett immediately.” The appearance of the actor was tragic. Guy Everett could not have dressed the part of mental anguish more appropriately. He was still in the evening clothes which he had worn when he squired Christine Quires to their New Year party. But now his collar was askew and his white tie was missing. His face was lined and haggard and his .eyes were gleaming restlessly. A dark slouch hat w’as crunched in his right hand as he strode theatrically across the library and stood before the Police Commissioner in a posture of resolute despair. “Mr. Colt,” he declared, “I have come here, hounded by my -conscience, to make a confession.” “Os murder?” asked Colt quietly’. “God, no! But of having lied. I told you a lie last night and my conscience will not let me rest!” “Get it off your soul, man,” encouraged Dougherty, shoving forward a chair. “Sit down and tell it straight'" Abruptly Guy Everett sat down on the edge of the chair. “I don't know how much you guessed, he blurted, fear and sincerity struggling through an habitual instinct to dramatize every breath he drew, “but what 1 am telling you is the truth, so help me God. It is true that I didn’t go on the Motor Parkway last night— I spent all those hours in a speakeasy trying to drink myself into a calmer state.” “What speakeasy?” asked Colt. A blankness came into the abtor’s eyes and then as quickly disappeared. “It was the North Star, on West Fifty-eighth Street, near Sixth Avenue.” ! I made a note of this, as Thati cher Colt motioned for Everett to ;proceed. (To Bp Continued) " rv Covin Friedt, fnc. Dwf’buted by King Features Syndicate, Inc.

Dr. Multooler. the medical examiner, contradicts Dr. Baldwin's statement that heart failure caused the deaths. A strap picked up in Lola's room presents mute evidence of having caused the bruise on Christine’s neck — after death. Everett confesses he lied about riding on the Motor Parkway. CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX ” | REALIZED after I left that I you would find me out. Then I saw how yoti might misinterpret that lie. The only reason I didn’t tell you straight off was that I didn’t want to get mixed up in any stew. It was none of my affair and I wanted to keep out of it. I have had trouble with Lola Carewe over money. You might as well know now the kind of woman Lola was. She blackmailed! She did it to me—and to God knows who else!”

'‘Blackmailed?" exclaimed , Dougherty, with an astounded roll of his blue eyes. “Lola Carewe—a blackmailer?” “She was!” avouched Everett with a solemn glance at the Dis- < trict Attorney. “May I speak to • you gentlemen in confidence?” “If it is not vital to the case,” ■ stipulated Thatcher Colt. “I am sure you will not betray : me!” cried the actor passionately. ■ “There is a secret 1 tried to keep, i My grandmother was a Negress - from Trinidad. Lola knew that. She 1 knew that I could not play roman tic roles in the American theater i and Hollywood if that fact were published. So she blackmailed me. : She had a broker who was in on < her schemes She collected the money on the pretense of invest- ■ ing it. She felt it was safer than i just taking the money—somebody might squeal. It is a game that is practiced all over New York today —it explains to many wives why their husbands insist on stock-mar-ket gambling and continued losses —a new blackmail alibi. With me, Lola was relentless She would take my last cent. I gave her funds I held from my father in trust for my mother. In desperation, I pretended to be in love with her. Yes -I was willing to act that part in order to marry her. and hope to get free of this unceasing tribute. I suppose I was crazy—but 1 thought I could touch her heart, and win peace by shamming love It was no go! She told me her love was dead; she loved only money and pleasure now. Why, Mr. Colt, I even paid money to Eunice James to tip me off as to what happened in that apartment—l wanted to get something on Lola, if I could—so that I could even counter-blackmail her, if possible, and thus work mytelf

But, Mr. Colt, when Christine talked to me last night, I learned that she was living in terror of her life!” Wiluiy Guy Everett looked from Colt to Dougherty and then back to Police Commissioner. “In terror of her life,” he repeated. “She told me that she had made a terrible discovery involving Lola Carewe. She also said that Doctor Baldwin was deeply mixed up in it. I She said she didn’t know what to |do. She had found out a plot to I take Lola’s life—and because she had found it out, she felt thgt her own life was in danger. At one moment she was tempted to go to the police and tell them what she knew. But then she would think better of it. She wanted my advice ” “Who was it that she found out meant to kill Lola?” cut in Colt I anxiously. I “Ah, she wouldn’t tell me that,” groaned Guy Everett, gracefully flecking his silken handkerchief against his brow. “I begged. I entreated. I cajoled. I pleaded. I harassed the poor girl, until she claimed she felt ill and made me bring her home. I offered to take her to a hotel. No, she wouldn’t j hear of it. She finally said the best thing to do was to go back to the apartment and have the whole thing out. But she wouldn't give in one inch and tell me anything about the matter that had worried her so. And that was all!” “Did you ever threaten Lola?” asked Dougherty, recalling the story we had heard in the penthouse. “Y es. We had several violent scenes. But I meant her no real harm!” “Os course not,” purred Dougherty, folding his hands over his vest. “She gave you not even a hint?”

I don’t know what it al! means—but perhaps what I have told you will help you!” Colt gave the exhausted Thespian a drink. For more than half an hour the Commissioner and the I District Attorney pried at Everett with questions, but they learned nothing more than he had already I l hem He Kave his Promise I that he would remain at the A x t o n Club for the rest of the day. subject to call.
