SYNOPSIS Attending the premiere of her latest motion picture, beautiful Leni Luneska, the star, is confronted by a shabby, emaciated man, who emerges from the crowd crying. “Leni! It is I, Karl Kruger. Do you want me to tell the whole world?” Leni turns white. She tells the man she will talk with him inside. Lucky Cavanaugh, a gambler, fascinated by Leni’s beauty, saunters into the theatre after Kruger. He prevents Kruger from making a scene and has him placed in a private office until after the show. Cavanaugh then bribes an usher to scat him in Leni’s box. During the performance Douglas Gates. Leni’s elderly escort, proposes to her. She is tempted to accept him to get away from everything. CHAPTER THREE “T'm afraid you are too thrilled with success to listen to me,” he half-smiled, “but I shall try to be patient.” Leni touched his hand. “Thank you, my dear,” she said softly. "You are so nice.” So nice and nothing more, thought Leni in her tense heart. The touch of his hand gave her no strength. Tonight it was strength she needed to face Karl Kruger; vigor of mind and courageous wisdom. There must be no giving way to blind despair, no surrendering to panic that paralyzes clear thinking. By an immense effort of the will it would be necessary to gather her forces for the ordeal. And the sooner the better. It would be dangerous to avoid seeing Kruger. She would have to face him immediately and forestall by whatever means possible the menace spawning in his murky brain. "I am going to slip out of the box for a little while,” Leni said to Gates, drawing her cloak around her shoulders. “Please-*-! want to be alone.” To Gates this was a display of imperious temperament which he was too polite to combat. He rose and stood aside; the small rustle of her leaving distracted no one’s attention. Leni’s talking ghost on the screen already had achieved a recognition that absorbed all interest from its human original. Unseen and uneonsidered, she tiptoed up a darkened side aisle to an obscure rendezvous where past and future moved swiftly toward fatal collision. Lucky Cavanaugh turned his head and watched her until she disappeared. Then he turned and saw her again on the screen, while a trace of the fragrance she wore •till lingered in the box. • * • Tr.e office into which Karl Kruger had been led was one of several on the second floor above the foyer. By day it was used by the press agent and was luxurious in the Hollywood tradition with thick rugs, mahogany and leather. Quite different, indeed, from the adjoining room to which a connecting door led. Next door there was nothing of swank. An adding machine on a plain table, several chairs, a stack of ledgers and a substantial steel safe were about all. The door of the safe was •wung open and a serious-looking man knelt before it. On the floor beside him was the night’s receipts, the paper currency in banded sheafs and the silver in two canvas bags. The man on the floor was not a burglar. He was the theatre treasurer and he was about to lock up the money carefully for the night. The real burglars, who were equally methodical, lurked behind the last row of seats in the gallery. They were dressed in the uni-

forms of ushers and had crawled down from the roof. Their undertaking was precarious but they had left very little to chance. Every detail had been planned to theoretical perfection. Outside a side door downstairs there was a third, also disguised as an usher, who was the look-out. He resembled somewhat the genuine article who might have sneaked out to drag on a cigarette. According to the burglar’s plans the room adjoining the treasurer's office should have been empty, but no safe-blowers, however 1 foresighted, could have predicted the catapulting of Karl Kruger into the scheme. Nor, for that matter, Leni Luneska, who made inquiries and was escorted by the house manager himself to the room occupied by the waiting Kruger. These events annoyed but did not dissuade the determined safe experts. The treasurer had locked the office and gone. So far, so good. It was child’s play for the robbers to enter the office with a skeleton key and wait, still as mice in the dark, until the unexpected conference next door broke up. The wall was thick and the connecting door heavy. Kruger’s and Leni’s voices were but dim babbles. In any case more than an hour remained before it would be time to explode the safe. This explosion was to be a matter of accurate timing, a feat without precedent. Leni’s screen picture was called “Madelon” and it dealt with the story of a little French cocotte who followed her poilu into the trenches in 1914. In the sixth reel, the picture reached its climax during a terrific bombardment from German heavy artillery. At a preview in Santa Barbara the previous week the sound effect had been so violent the audience was deafened. Windows Hd rattled and chandeliers shaken. It ..»s the loudest bombardment, ever sjrecr.ed and a mere safe blowing, to be h-l

loose at its height, would attract no more attention than a pop gun in a boiler factory. Kruger, sitting deep in the comfort of a leather chair, did not arise when Leni entered. Without moving he looked at her strained face. One of her hands clutched the opera cloak over her breast, the fur brushing her smooth neck. “Shut the door!” said Kruger without removing the cigarette from his mouth. “What’s the matter—afraid I’m going to bite you?" She stood gazing at him without speaking while a little dark pool formed between her eyes where tha faintly penciled brows drew together. The cloak rose and fell visibly with her breathing. Kruger, too, was affected despite his effort to be domineering; a dark vein in his temple throbbed with a steady beat. “What are you doing here? What do you want of me?” Leni asked. Her voice was low and almost polite. Kruger nervously threw his cigarette to the rug and straightened forward agressively. “You know very well what I want,” said Kruger loudly. “You . —in your fine feathers—you wish I hadn’t showed up, hey? It is not pleasant to have a starving bum hanging round in his rags, is it? No—oh no! Not when he happens to be your husband! It would be so nice and convenient to forget all about Karl Kruger, wouldn’t it?” Leni’s breathing was difficult and she had a cold sickness in her breast. Crack-brained and egotistical. this man had it in his power to poison her whole life. He could reach up with his dirty hand and pull her down again into the mud and despair from which , she had climbed by the almost superhuman force of her own will ■ —by the soul-drive of her own re--1 volt against the shame and misery of a haunting past.
