CHAPTER XXV "As my memory serves.—and as ( a rule it serves me well, —the ring was still on the table when I was ; called out of the room just now.” Isquith nodded. 1 “Fact is, we missed it as soon as ( you were gone.” ( “But concluded to think it over | before taking any drastic action?” ( Lanyard's mirth was short with . scorn. “Shouted no alarm, made no | move to overhaul me before I could . dispose of the loot? Rather thought- ( less of you, wasn’t it?” ( “Rather,” Isquith silkiiy allowed. , “Now you have pointed out the , oversight, however, you may depend ; on our giving it plenty of thought.” , “Monsieur will find the exercise i beneficial, I am sure, if perhaps at i first fatiguing.” ! “Adding impertinence to bravado, eh? And giving us to wonder what you think to profit by either.” “Not impertinence, monsieur, believe me, nor yet bravado —simply two different expressions of fatigue. In fine, this nonsense wearies me.” “Y’ou’ll be bone-tired of it, I’ll wager, before you’re finished with it.” “Rubbish!” And Lanyard lounged deeper in his chair, contemplating his company in bored impatience: “What do you take me for? A child, ! to be frightened by funny noises in the night? Perhaps but one of you three knows who did pouch that ruby, but every one of you knows it ' wasn’t I. Am I to sit here, then, and pretend to be appalled because ! it’s your transparent scheme to make a scapegoat of me? But it is you who are children if you imagine I shall permit you to do so.” “As to that, my friend, we shall see.” “At last, one point on which we agree.” “Do I understand, monsieur”— the Rajah, indignation painting his face with dusky pallor, took over the attack —“you have the insolence to imply that the other guests of mine and I are conspiring to accuse you falsely?” "What else can I mean, when I say every last one of you knows I didn’t steal that ring?” “Do you dare to insinuate that I—” But this Lanyard drowned down with a voice of as much authority, and more volume: “If the status of a petty Indian prince clothes a man with all the virtues, this is the first one has heard of it. Furthermore, Your Highness, it but ill becomes a paragon to keep the company you do.” "Have a care, monsieur!” The Rajah was on his feet again, al) tense and trembling. “With this iady present—” “Be advised. Your Highness: let the lady speak for herself. She’s quite able to. If it comes to that,” Lanyard pursued with a smiling bow to the only other unruffled presence, “Madame Boyce at least makes no pretenses. She is openly on the make—marries for money as often as the law allows, and doesn’t bluff about it. Os Mr. Isquith here I know nothing more than that he doesn’t ring true. The gesture of a gentleman isn’t something one can turn on and off like electric light—he should know that. As for yourself, I confess I don’t know your kind well enough to tell the Rajah of Ladore from an impostor. I dare say you’re genuine enough, but”— Lanyard went into a drawl of wicked intelligence-—“I do suspect

you at least of taking an unrighteous interest in the Habsburg emeralds.” “ ‘The Habsburg emeralds!' ’’ The Rajah stammered; his stare winced. “What have they to do with my missing ruby?” “That is for you to tell me, I think.” Lanyard didn’t trouble to disguise the pleasure it gave him to believe that a shaft loosed at random had lodged close to the quick. "I only know that attempts have been made to rob their owner eg voyage; that it has been proposed to me that I steal them on shares, once they have been passed through the American Customs — which would seem to indicate a sure market in sight fur stones that normally would be difficult to dispose of, but unmistakably are worth a rajah’s ransom and would add luster even to the Crown of Ladore.

find the three of you leagued to victimize me, pillory me as the author of a crime which you know I couldn’t have committed. With what object, it is not possible to guess, unless it be to punish me for declining to resume my naughty ways of old, or else frighten me into betraying the friendship of Madame Crozier —stealing her hard-bought emeralds for sale to some such greedy collector of jewels such as, say, His Highness the Rajah of Ladore." He paused, with a grin for the gleam of wonder surprised in Isquith’s regard, the all but impish humor that had awakened in the woman’s, the rage that temporarily reduced the Rajah to splutters. And before these last could become articulate he resumed: “1 know, of course, the boat’s alive with American racketeers, and what all the world knows, that Madame Boyce is on good terms with the cream of Broadway’s. It wouldn’t amaze me in the least to find that she tried to poison my

I confess I don’t see why I you can’t be frank with me and put , your cards on the table. For my i part, I don’t mind admitting I i haven’t any relish for the prospect • of being publicly accused of this psuedo-theft, though I know you ; will never be able to pin it on me. i It would cramp my style consideri ably to land under a cloud, if al- ■ lowed to land at all. You see. I am

a man of reason—l know that when the odds against me are too long, it’s time to pocket scruples and talk business. Say I consent to secure the Habsburg emeralds and hand them over? Will that content you? Wil) you promise to ‘find’ your lost ring and tell the Captain you were mistaken in assuming that it had been stolen? And what will you give me to boot?" He was sharp to mark the falter of an instant as those three minds strove to cope with the shock of finding his intuitions so shrewd and sure, the glance of intelligence, half-dismayed, half-jubilant, which the Rajah tried to trade with Tess Boyce and Isquith. but the instant passed, to the sound of Isquith’s tired sarcastic accents. "Man’s more mad than insolent - if you ask me.” This the woman capped with a throaty cry; “Good grief!” And - Lanyard eaw her in a stare at the doorway to the anteroom. “Who’s - that?” (To Be Continued!

Legally, of course, RKO can hold Joel to his bargain. It’s a question for mediation. Or maybe the whole trouble can be ironed out by one satisfactory picture. Unwittingly, the Filipino houseboy at the Writer’s Club put a certain Hollywood author through a very bad moment the other evening. The scribe took his wife out to dinner at the club. “Good evening, sir,” beamed the houseboy. “This lady is your sister, yes?” As the red started to rise to the writer's ears, his wife snapped: “Oh no. those other ladies he brought were his sisters.” Mary Brian and W. C. Fields are i ' neighbors, living on opposite sides <if the narrow end of Tolucca l ake. The other day Mary's brother. Terry Danzler. returned from the Orient with his dance orchestra. For want of a better place, he carried the boys out to Mary’s house to rehearse. The noise, booming across the lake, soon got on Fields' nerves. After standing it for awhile, he rushed into the house and emerged with a large African tom-toni from his collection of curios. Standing at the edge of the water, the comedian commenced to beat the drum furiously. The awful discord went on until the orchestra gave up.
