CONTROL URGED FOR EPIDEMIC Hog Cholera Spreads In Indiana; Few Cases Reported In Adams Co. dndianapolla, Oct. 3 — Increasing outbreaks of hog cholera throughout the state today led to a sharp warning to Indiana farmers from ' the office of Dr. J. L. Axby. state veterinarian, and the outlining of precautionary steps to prevent further spread of the disease this fall. The cases in Adams county are | scattered from the north to the « south portions of the county. They 1 * have not reached epidemic propor-I tions. In the past few weeks outbreaks have been reported in Adams, Ben- ( ton. Cass. Franklin. Hancock, Mad-1 ison. Monroe. Shelby. Tippecanoe and Wayne counties. "Safety first” measures to help farmers protect their hogs from spread of the disease were suggested by the state veterinarian, including the following: ' Do not visit your neighbor s farm or allow him to visit yours. ’ If he has cholera on his premises ; Do not drive into hog lots after i driving on public highways Do

not use hog iota for yarding wKg- , on* and farm implements. Do not place newly-purchased stock or breeding stock immediately with your herd, but keep it quarantiu--1 ed In separate pens for at least two weeks. Confine your dog, and encourage neighbors to do the same. Have all hogs treated immediately with anti-hog cholera serum and virus by a graduate veterinarian. "Early control measures to prevent the spread of cholera in outbreak areas will save Indiana farmers tens of thousands of dollars,” Dr. Axby said in issuing his warning today. "There is no cure for cholera, out it can be prevented if proper steps are taken in . time.” COURTHOUSE Estate Cases A petition to settle the estate of | Christian C.

CHAPTER XIV ■Excuse me, gentlemen, for my somewhat unceremonious entry,” the stranger said in a soft voice, “but my business is of a rather unorthodox nature.” Smiling, he advanced to the table •nd sat down by it. I was about to spring ap, but Poirot restrained me with a gesture. “As you say, monsieur, your entry is somewhat unceremonious. Will you kindly state your business?” “My dear M. Poirot, it is very simple. You have been annoying my friends." "In what way?” “Come, come, Monsieur Poirot. You do not seriously ask me that? You know as well as I do.” “It depends, monsieur, upon who these friends of yours are.” Without a word, the man drew from his pocket a cigarette case, and, opening it, took out four cigarettes and tossed them on the table. Then he picked them up and returned them to his case, which he replaced in his pocket. “Aha!” said Poirot, “so it is like that, is it? And what do your friends suggest?” “They suggest, monsieur, that you should employ your talents—your very considerable talents—in the detection of legitimate crimereturn to your former avocations, and solve the problems of London society ladies.” “A peaceful programme,” said Poirot. “And supposing I do not agree?” The man made an eloquent gesture. “We should regret it, of course, exceedingly,” he said. “So would all the friends and admirers of the great M. Hercule Poirot. But regrets, however poignant, do not bring a man to life again.” “Put very delicately,” said Poirot, nodding his head. “And supposing I —accept?” "In that case I am empowered to offer you—compensation.” He drew out a pocket-book, and threw ten notes on the table. They were for ten thousand francs each. “That is merely as a guarantee of our good faith,” he said. “Ten times that amount will be paid you.” “Good lord,” I cried, springing up, “you dare to think—!” “Sit down, Hastings,” said Poirot autocratically. “Subdue your so beautiful and honest nature and sit down. To you, monsieur, I will say this. What is to prevent me ringing up the police and giving you into their custody, whilst my friend here prevents you from escaping?” “By ail means do so if you think it advisable,” said our visitor calmly. . “Oh! look here, Poirot,” I cried. “I can’t stand this. Ring up the police and have done with it.” Rising swiftly, I strode to the door and stood with my back against it. “It seems the obvious course,” murmured Poirot, as though debating with himself. “But you distrust the obvious, ch?” said our visitor, smiling. “Go on. Poirot,” I urged. I “It will be your responsibility, mon ami." As he lifted the receiver, the man made a sudden, cat-like jump at me. i I was ready for him. In another I minute we were locked together, staggering round the room. Suddenly I felt him slip and falter. I pressed my advantage. He went down before me. And then, in the very flush of victory, an extraordinary thing happened. I felt myself flying forwards. Head first, I crashed into the wail in a complicated heap. I was up in a minute, tut *he door was already closing behind my late adversary. I rushed to !t and shook it, it was locked on the outside. I seized the telephone from Poirot to warn the desk with: "Thia la Hastings. Stop a man who is coming ouL A tall man, with '

a buttoned-up evereoat and a soft hat. He is wanted by the police.” Very few minutes elapsed before we heard a noise in the corridor outside. The key was turned and the door flung open. The manager himself stood in the doorway. “The man—you have got nim?” I eried. “No, monsieur. No one has descended.” “You must have passed him.” “We have passed no one, monsieur. It is incredible that he can have escaped." “You have passed some one, I think,” said Poirot, in his gentle voice. “One of the hotel staff, perhaps?” “Only a waiter carrying a tray, monsieur.” “Ah!” said Poirot, in a tone that spoke infinities. “So that was why he wore his overcoat buttoned up to his chin,” mused Poirot, when we had finally got rid of the excited hotel officials. “I’m awfully sorry, Poirot,” I murmured, rather crestfallen. “I thought I’d downed him all right.” “Yes, that was a Japanese trick, I fancy. Do not distress yourself, mon ami. All went according to plan—his plan. That is what I wanted.” “What's this?” I cried, pouncing on a brown object that lay on the floor. It was a slim pocket-book of brown leather, and hnd evidently fallen from our visitor’s pocket during his struggle with me. It contained two receipted bills in the name of M. Felix Laon. and a foldedup piece of paper which made my heart beat faster. It was a half sheet of rfbte-paper on which a few words were scrawled in pencil but they were words of supreme importance. “The next meeting of the council will be on Friday at 34 Rue des Echelles at 11 a. m.” It was signed with a big figure 4. ■ And today was Friday, and the clock on the mantelpiece showed the hour to be 10.30. “My lord, what a chance!” I cried. “Fate is playing into our hands. We must start at once—though. What stupendous luck." “So that was why he came,” murmured Poirot. “I see it all now.” “See w hat? Come on, Poirot, don’t stay day-dreaming there.” Poirot looked at me, and slowly shook his head, smiling as he did so. “ ‘Will you walk into my parlour, *said the spider to the fly?’ That is your little English nursery rhyme, is it not. No, no—they are subtle—but not so subtle as Hercule Poirot.” “What on earth are you driving at, Poirot?” “My friend, I have been asking myself the reason of this morning’s visit Did our visitor really hope to succeed in bribing me? Or, alternatively, in frightening me into abandoning my task? It seemed hardly credible. Why, then, did he cornel And now I see the whole plan—very neat — very pretty — the ostensible reason to bribe or frighten me—the necessary struggle which he took no pains to avoid, and which should make the dropped pocket-book natural and reasonable—and finally—the pitfail! Rue des Eschelles, 11 a.m.7 I think not, mon ami! One docs net catch Hercule Poirot as easily as that.” “Good heavens,” I gasped. Poirot was frowning to himself. “There is still one thing I do not understand." “What is that?” “The time, Hastings — the time. If they wanted to decoy me away, surely night time would be better? Why this early hour? Is it possible that something is about to happen this morning? Something which they are anxious Hercule Poirot should not know about?” He shook his head. “We shall see. Here I sit, mon nmi. We do not stir out this morn1 ing. We await events here.”

It was at half-past eleven exactly that the summons came. A petit Wee. Poirot tore it open, then handed it to me. It was from Madame Olivier, the world-famous scientist, whom we had visited yesterday in connection with the Halliday case. It asked us to come out to Passy at once. We obeyed the summons without an instant’s delay. Madame Olivier received us in the same small salon. I was struck anew with the wonderful power of this woman, with her long nun's face and burning eyes—this brilliant successor of Becquerel and the Curies. She came to the point at once. "Messieurs, you interviewed me yesterday about the disappearance of M. Halliday. I now learn that you returned to the house a second time, and asked to see my secretary, Inez Veroneau. She left the house with you, and has not returned here since.” “Is that all, madame?” "No, monsieur, it is not. I-ast night the laboratory was broken into, and several valuable papers and memoranda were stolen. The thieves had a try for something more precious still, but luckily they failed to open the big safe.” “Madame, these are the facts of the case. Your late secretary, Madame Veroneau, was really the Countess Rossakoff, an expert thief, and it was she who was responsible for the disappearance of M. Halliday. How long had she been with you?” “Five months, monsieur. What you say amazes me.” “It is true, nevertheless. These papers, were they easy to find? Or do you think an inside knowledge was shown?” “It is rather curious that the thieves knew exactly where to look You think Inez—” “Yes, I have no doubt that it was upon her information that they acted. But what is this precious thing that the thieves failed to find? Jewels?” Madame Olivier shook her head with a faint smile. “Something much more precious than that, monsieur.” She looked round her, then bent forward, lowering her voice. "Radium, monsieur." “Radium?” “Yes, monsieur. lam now at the crux of my experiments. I possess a small portion of radium myself—more has been lent to me for the process lam at work upon. Small though the actual quantity is, it comprises a large amount of the world’s stock and represents a value of millions of francs.” “And where is it?” "In its leaden ease in the big safe —the safe purposely appears to be of an old and worn-out pattern, but it is really a triumph of the safemaker’s art. That ia probably why the thieves were unable to open it" “How long are you keeping thia radium in your poasession?” “Only for tiro days more, monsieur. Then my experiments will be concluded.” Poirot’s eyes brightened. “And Inez .Veroneau is aware of the fact? Good — then our friends will come back. Not a word of mo to any one. niadame. But rest assured, I will save your radium for you. You have a key of the door leading from the laboratory to the garden?” “Yes, monsieur. Here it is. I have a duplicate for myself. And here is the key of the garden door leading out into the alleyway between this villa and the next one." “I thank you, madame. To-night, go to bed as usual, have no fears' and leave all to me. But not a word to any one—not to your two assist ants — Mademoiselle Claude and Monsieur Henri, is it not?—particularly not a word to them.” (To Be Continued) rromsM. ux. ss asust ctaim DlttrlbtrtFd by King Fwurffi Syndics, Ina,
