SYNOPSIS

Following the receipt of a death threat. Lola Carewe, known as “The Night Club Lady”, is mysteriously slain in her penthouse apartment at 3 a. m. New Year’s. Dr. Hugh Baldwin reports death due to heart failure. The only clue to the murderer is a medical laboratory specimen box found outside Lola’s window. 1‘olire Commissioner Thatcher Colt attaches importance to the young man

“As soon as ready, send the vacuum cleaner bags and all the clothes of the two girls to the apartment of Morningside Heights. The men need not wait there.”

“Right!”

Colt turned away. His dark brows were concentrated in an unaccustomed frown. I saw that some facet of this double riddle had assumed immense importance in his

“I hud forgotten something,” h: murmured. “Something important.’ Returning to the living-room, he crossed to what had been the boudoir of Lola Carewe and knocked. Dorothy Lox opened the door. i “On the dresser," directed the Commissioner, without entering, “there is a framed picture of a young man.

CHAPTER TWENTY

AS the long distance conversation ended, the work of the vavuum 1 cleanerswasgetting underway. Instantly the pent-house of Lola Carewe was filled with a weird sound. At that dark hour the moaning whine, the wheezing drone of those vacuum cleaners operated by two young detectives from Center Street echoed mournfully through the rooms. Every particle of dust in the room where the crime had been

Deliberately he reassembled the pieces into order and then put the

“You take charge of that, Tony,” he instructed. “I’ll tell you what to

do with it later.”

What was the purpose if this steady retracing of old steps? I watched, fascinated--! had not seen Thatcher Colt in this strange mood before. The personal challenge, perhaps the very impertinence of these murders, had brought him to a high pitch of determined effort. To the kitchen he went, and from there through room after room We did not follow him, but we could hear him, poking about In closets, and opening boxes and trunks, even lifting windows and trying doors. Finally he came back to us, having completed the circuit and reexamined all the rooms. As he en-

The possibility that Doctor Bald-

win had had a hand in the death of Lola or Christine seemed remote to the point of absurdity. What op

portunity had there been? But I had no time then for id'e

speculation. From the left-hard pocket of bis trousers, Colt took on: a coil of brown leather strap. '» had a buckle at the end—the kind of strap used on t-'.nks. I noticret that the strap had recently been wet
