SYNOPSIS Leni Luneska. beautiful motion picture star, is embarrassed at the premiere of her latest picture when her husband, Karl Kruger, whom she thought in prison, arrives and threatens to reveal his identity unless she talk* with him. Lucky Cavanaugh, a gambler, prevents Kruger from making a scene and has him placed in a private office to await Leni after the show. In the next office, thieves are burglarizing the safe. Leni goes to Kruger. He demands recognition as her husband. She refuses but be says he will wait for her to reconsider. Cavanaugh, fascinated by Leni’s beauty, follows her into the box. Finding her in tears he tries to comfort her and Leni is strangely strengthened by his hand-clasp. He takes her out for some air. Forced to confide in someone, she relates her past life: slaving in a Vienna factory . . . marriage to Kruger when only fourteen . . . beatings . . . Kruger’s arrest . . . America . . . and her romantic rise to stardom. Unable to resist, Cavanaugh takes Leni in his arms and in an unguarded moment she allows him to kiss her. Cavanaugh goes to Kruger and insists that he leave, but the latter is defiant. A fight ensues and Kruger draws a revolver. Cavanaugh turns out the lights. Kr/ger empties his gun at Lucky but misses him. Then, in fury, Kruger rushes through the door leading to the next office, surprising the robbers at work. A tongue of flame spurts from a burglar's automatic and Kruger drops —dead. CHAPTER TEN The man with the flashlight shut it off as Kruger struck the floor. It would have been ridiculously easy to fire another shot into the lighted room where Cavanaugh stood stark still —a target that could not be missed. The assassin in the dark, in fact, had begun to level his revolver when one of his companions knocked it aside. “Don’t be a fool!” said one of the men hoarsely. For men in their positions it was bad technique to commit another murder.*Their sole object now was to escape as adroitly as possible. One of them closed the door, leaving Cavanaugh standing alone in the office where a moment before the living Kruger had faced him, “I’ll have to get out of here at once,” Cavanaugh said silently to himself, “or I’ll be arrested.” In a dazed way he was aware of what had happened. Kruger had burst in upon the scene of crime and his life had paid the penalty. Cavanaugh looked about him. A glittering something on the floor attracted his eye. It was the cheap revolver dropped by Kruger. There was no belief in his mind that Kruger was merely wounded—alive and still a menace. The single bullet had spoken with the voice of death. Cavanaugh felt this inwardly, knew it to be true beyond peradventure. The word Death rang through his mind like the tolling of a bell. Karl Kruger had gone and taken his sorry tale with him. Without hurrying Cavanaugh let himself into the outer corridor and closed the door behind him. There in the back part of the theater he could hear dimly the mechanical dialogue of the characters on the screen. The throb of his pulse in his wrist was quite distinct. His heart had a heavy beating that was almost a jar. The remarkable thing was that he had escaped both Kruger’s bullet and any implication in the murder. It remained only for him to walk casually back to the box and sit down behind Leni Luneska. He needed no alibi. If anyone, by chance, should inquire—he had merely been in the foreccffirt smoking a cigarette. After all, he had had practically

nothing to do with Kruger’s death. Poor devil! For an instant Cavanaugh felt a wave of pity for the man but immediately it was engulfed in a great feeling of relief for Leni’s sake. For her the black beast of fear had been killed. It was a good thing, Cavanaugh decided deliberately, that Kruger was dead. By any process of human reasoning, the man had forfeited all right to live. At the bend of the corridor Cavanaugh set foot on the first step leading downward when he almost bumped into a stocky figure ascending. Thus it came about that Tom Mulrooney encountered — and remembered —the presence of Lucky Cavanaugh in a part of the theater where Cavanaugh had no business to be. This was important because Mulrooney was head of the city's detective force. A short, wide-shouldered man with a stubby red moustache i and eyes as blue and clear as a child’s. Cavanaugh, on his way to Leni Luneska, would have passed the detective with a nonchalant salutation but Mulrooney, for no apparent reason, insisted upon stopping and shaking hands. “Well, well, Lucky—it’s good to see you again,” Mulrooney said. “How did they treat you at Caliente?” “They got everything but my tooth brush, as usual,” grinned Cavanaugh. “That’s a smart story and I don’t blame you for sticking to it,” responded Mulrooney. “You let the mob around this town know you’ve got any money and they’ll bite you to death. How did you like the picture tonight?” “I’m willing te forgive and forget it.” “Didn’t I see you in the box with Leni Luneska?” “Yes—that’s right" “Friend of yours?” Cavanaugh waited ■ moment before answering. He thrust his hands into his trouser pockets and stood, tall and athletic, with a small quizzical scowl forming between his brows. "Certainly she's a friend of mine,” he said with a shadow of irritation. “What’s the idea anyway, Mulrooney ?” “No idea at all, Lucky,” replied Mulrooney easily. “1 was just wondering—didn’t I see you leave the box with Miss Luneska about half an hour ago?” “I don’t know whether you saw it or not,” said Cavanaugh, “but that’s what happened. We stepped outside for a little fresh air.” Mulrooney nodded. “Sure. The reason I asked you—l wondered if you noticed any suspicious looking characters while you were outside?” "How does a suspicious looking character look?” asked Cavanaugh smiling, his hands still in his pockets. “I’m not kidding," said the other. “I was talking to Kaufmann and he’s all excited because he thinks somebody has broken into his penthouse. He was up there a few minutes ago and he said the window had been jimmied.” “Was anything stolen?” “That’s the funny part," said Mulrooney thoughtfully. “It looks like somebody went up there and made himself at home for a little while. Kaufmann is kinda upset about it. A man don’t like to have his private quarters entered. Not when there are marks on the window that show a professional jimmy had been used. It’s a little bit unpleasant.” ■ Cavanaugh assumed a thoughtful expression. “Tell you what I’ll do, Mulrooney. I’ll think it over and if I can solve the mystery for you I’ll do it. Os 1 course I’m not a professional de- . tective like you are——” “Oh, don't bother too much about

it,” said Mulrooney, with half • smile under his bristling moustache. “Maybe it wasn’t anything serious at all. Probably some couple slipped out of the audience and went up there to spend a little time together—who knows? Myself. I don’t take things like that too seriously.” Cavanaugh shifted on h;s feet, preparing to go on downstairs. It gave him an obscure sense of discomfort to be standing talking to this detective while Karl Krugers dead body lay not more than fifty feet distant. “Going back to the box?” asked Mulrooney. “In a general way—yes.” Mulrooney fetched a filmy whisp of chiffon from the side pocket of his coat. “I just found this ladies’ handkerchief up in Kaufmann’s penthouse,” he said. “It’s scented up with an awfully nice perfume. When you go back to the box you might give it to Leni Luneska. Maybe it belongs to her. At least it’s got her monogram in the comer.” Cavanaugh’s face did not change expression. “Thanks, Mulrooney,” he said politely. “Don’t mention it, Lucky,” replied the detective. “You seem to be Lucky by name and Lucky by nature. Well, it’s a great old world, ain’t it? Romance and everything. There’s only one thing that bothers me though ” “You shouldn’t let anything bother you,” Cavanaugh remarked. “I don’t, usually,” Tom Mulrooney told him. “But when people use jimmies on other folks property it worries me just a little. If I find out anything more about that jimmy I’ll let you know, Lucky.” “I’d appreciate it if you would,” returned Lucky Cavanaugh courteously as he turned and went down the stairs, leaving Mulrooney standing where he was. People are always moving about somewhere in a large theater during a performance — ushers, managers, restless patrons. Mulrooney and Cavanaugh, as they talked, had not been unobserved. Three men dressed as ushers and carrying packages had emerged from a nearby office— had given quick glances at the detective and Lucky Cavanaugh, and then moved unhurriedly in the opposite direction. Cavanaugh, as he made his way down to Leni’s box, tried to dismiss Mulrooney from his mind. Nevertheless, he realized quite clearly that he was in a spot. As soon as the robbery and murder came to light, Mulrooney would invariably remember Cavanaugh’s wandering around near the scene. There was that matter of the jimmy, too. This was not, of course, evidence enough to connect him with the crimes but it might require some difficult explaining. Lem might become involved should Kruger’s identity come out Walking down the side aisle with his carefree stride, Lucky Cavanaugh presented the nonchalant and unworried picture of a young man whose calm state of mind corresponded with his handsome din-ner-coated appearance. This was not the first time in his life that he had been in a tight place. Brushing shoulders with the police was not exactly a novelty. Yet he did not find it necessary to relax hi s easy politeness or his ' habitual smile of good-natured ■ cynicism. This was the first time, ' however, when his affections were ever tied up with anything resem- ' bling danger. More than anything else, he was acutely conscious of 1 an odd, aching regard for Leni Luneska. In some strange way it had come ’ about that he was responsible for her happiness.
