f,iih him.

CHAPTER THREE Thatcher Colt reached her /\ table, Lola Carewe extended - *■ one hand, exclaiming: “Forgive me, Mr, Commissioner. 1 would not have done this ■ r the world if I had not felt drlvi n to it.” Extra chairs were brought and presently five of us were gathered mound the table. All felt at lea a little self-conscious. There was a moment's awkward silence. On nearer view the effect of Lola 1 arewe’s beauty was still startling. If she d : d not look so youthful, her rxpresston was more mobile, her glances even more brilliant. The woman’s eyes were extraordii.arilf larg” and alive, with a < at iik* tricL uf <hanging their li’Str” Behind her outward poi-e, I sens'd a fierce nervous tension. “Mr. Colt,”—she began boldly enough, but her lips were trembling . "I 1 o|IP 1 1 ” “Better wait a moment, suggested the Commissioner, soothingly. “There’s plenty of time.” And then, turning the subject, he added, “What a magnificent ruby you are wearing tonight.” His eyes dawdled admiringly on a gleaming, fiery stone, pendant on a chain of pearls around her throat. With a little humming cry, Lola lifted the ston?. fixed in a gold setting of exquisite craft, and held it up in her palm. Colt’s dark head inclined forward, as he studied the shining bauble. "So much more beautiful than the purplish color of most large rubies!” he remarked softly. "You talk like a connoisseur, Mr. Colt!” Lola exclaimed. The subject of jewels seemed to lull her nerx ousness; she was at once more composed. “Do you know precious

stones?”

“A police chief has to know something about jewels,” Dougherty inserted with a wink at Rowland and a noisy chuckle. “He has to find so

many stolen ones.”

Colt’s eyes, leaving Lolas face,

returned to the ruby.

“The weight of this one.” he murmured, “must be at least twentyfive carats.” . “Twenty-five and a halt, sne

corrected him proudly.

“There are so many famous diamonds - and so few famous rubies,” lamented Colt. “I suppose this one came from some old Burmese king

who needed ready cash?”

His brows lifted in well-disposed curiosity. . , .. T do not know the ruby s history,” Lola answered, with a restless fidget of her shoulders. “I have had it for many years. Mr. Colt, 1 shouldn't hfe troubling you like this. . . Her voice died away, but it was plain she now wished to turn the talk back to her own purpose. Colt lingered, absorbed in the jewel. “Nearly all large rubies arc at least slightly striated,” he rambled on. “But this one is virtually flawless. It is even more beautiful than

stone enters the mar, et only about onfe in a century. <>f course you reeling that you an- akin? a great risk in wearing it around New York?” “Just what I was telling her,” agreed old Rowland crisply. “But it's New Year’s Eve!” pretested I^la Carewe. As if her words were the cue to Father Time, a Ml began to chime. It was (he long-awu ted signal for noise. The remaining midnight strokes we>* obliterated in the clamor instantly let loose in the Crystal Room; a brattle and brangle of cheers and shouts, knives and forks drumming on china, the froglike croaking of rattles and a hoarse blast of horns. Many stood and waved their napkins while others sang "Auld Lung Syne.” The little New Year was getting “a groat big hand” in Mayfair. Brightly Lola Carewe glanced around hot. She lift' d her napkin, as if intending to rise and wave and sing with the rest. Then a change came over her; she put down the napkin and clasped her hands rigidly as she looked at Thatcher Colt. “I am not afraid of jewel thieves,” she declared, a trace of challenge in her voice. “There are things in this world worse than jewel thieves.” In the din her voice was almost lost. Every minute the revel grew more boisterous. We could only sit and wait until a fanfare of clarinets and saxophones signalled the first dance of the New Year, and the charivari gave way to a fox-trot. “And what is it you do fear?” resumed Colt, his glance leaving the dancers and lingering on the

ruby.

“That you, Mr. Colt, will rvot

take my story seriously." “I shall ask only for facts."

“Will you recognize them cs facts? Or will you think me mad?” Her sidelong glance might have been demented or sinister — or

merely a look of deep-rooted fear.

“But you policemen do not believe in anything you cannot pal in handcuffs.” “1 think it would he much better if you came directly to the point,” prompted the Commissioner coldly. “That’s just what I was going to tell you, Lola,” added Vincent Rowland, again wagging his finger. "Get right down to the facts with Mr. Colt.” Lola Carewe breathed deeply and looked away with an angry little wrinkling of her brows. Her fingers drummed ineffectually on the table. Although she had entreated him to join her, Lola seemed already irritated at the presence of this unruffled, deep-eyed man who was New York’s police chief. He was so much the master of the situation— and he would not play the courtier to her charms. Neither her beauty nor the mysterious preamble had provoked In the Commissioner more than a polite and reserved interest. “I mean," Lola disclosed finally, “that I do not expect to leave Mayfair tonight alive.” She glanced rapidly at our faeijs, appraising the effect of this remarkable announcement. Yet Thatcher Colt expressed neither shock nor surprise. As if her news had proved of the flimsiest Inconsequence, he was negligently lighting a cigarette. But Vincent Rowland’s mouth hung in a haggard are and Dougherty was pop-eyed. “You mean,” gasped the District Attorney, “that they have put you on the spot?” Lola Carewe looked genuinely taken aback. “I do not know whom you meat by 'they’.” “Never mind,” rumbled Dougherty. “You do believe someone intends to take your life?” “That is true. I feel that I am doomed—unless Mr. Colt*can save

me.”
