o i nupms L»la Carewe, “The Night Club -idy”, is mysteriously murdered in penthouse apartmeet at three eciock New Year's morning. An **ur later, the body of Lola’s guest, Jhristine Quires, is found in Lola's ■worn. Christine had been killed fi’.st nd her body hidden. Dr. Hugh B.cld»iu attributes both deaths due le leart failure. Guy Everett. ChrisIne's New Year's Eve escort, claims le brought her home at 12:1.and then rent riding.alone.un the Motor ’’ark»ay. Mrs. Carewe. Lola's mother, lenies seeing Christine return. *olice Commissioner Thatcher Colt iiscounts District Attorney DoughTty's theory that Lola was killed by t jewel thief ring she headed and hat Christine met the same tate for mowing toa much. Vincent Itowand. Lola's lawyer, discloses that Dverett loved Lola and was jealous if Dr. Baldwin The Commissioner elephotos a picture of a young nan, named Basil, found on Lola’s Iresser, to the Paris Prefect of ’olice requesting that he identify t and investigate Lola's pa-i The tolice are on the trail of ( hri.stine's irother. Edgar, who left hi- Boch•ster home for New York after roeiving a telegram New Year's I e Christine was to have inherited eealth shortly. Dr. IMultooler, th nedical examiner, contradicts Dr taldwin's statement that heart failire caused the deaths. CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE Y|T!fERE was no indication of n I history of old heart trouble In either girl?” “None whatever. The girls' hearts were sound as a dollar.” “But Doctor Baldwin told us Lola had suffered from a weak heart.” “Something wrong there, Mr. Colt. I know damn well that her heart could not have suddenly gone haywire and caused the condition 1 found. The heart muscle constrictions in both girls were simply unbelievable.” "Have you no theory at nil ns to what caused the constriction of the heart muscles?” asked Colt. “I admit it would look like some foreign cau-e — poison — something external that had just got intco the system either the minute liefore you found her, or sometime afterward,” declared the Assistant Medical Examiner stoutly. “But 1 went all over them again—even shaved their heads—there was no trace of poison, and furthermore there was no skin puncture anywhere except, on Lola Carewe’s arm, the tiny hole made by Doctor Baldwin’s hypodermic needle. And that's been analyzed down here. It was absolutely innocent—the solution of adrenalin was absolutely harmless!" Colt cleared his throat unhap-

pily.

“Now, Doctor Multooler," he said, “please don’t take what I am going to say as a criticism. And 1 am sorry to ask you to work any more, after the pace you’ve been going But this much I know — unless I am making the biggest blunder of my life, there has to be a puncture somewhere on the body of < hristine Quires. Will you look again?”

“Mr. Commissioner!"

The voice of Doctor J. L. Multooler rang with injury and re- ** “You know you can count on me!” he cried earnestly. “Of course I’ll look again. Maybe I’ll find something this time. And I’m all the more

"Mr. Colt,” he declared. "I have come here, hounded by my conscience, to make a confession.”

There is no doubt that the st rap was u> md the throat of Christine Quires!” So—this explained the diabolical markings on the dead gill's throat! Hut what did that make dear? “Could she have been ■ hoked to death?” asked Thatcher Colt. “Absolutely not!” ciedared Doctor Multooler, emphatically. "You will try again?” begged

Colt.

“At once, Mr, Colt.” ‘^Thank you,” said Thatcher Colt

crisply.

"Happy New Year,” caroled the autnpsist as he hung up. There was a baffled glint in the eyes of Thatcher Colt as he turned from the telephone ami repeated what he had heard to District Attorney Dougherty. , "How was the thing done?” he demanded aloud, as he sat back and tilled his pipe. “There are no really new methods in crime. But I can’t remember a single case that resembles this one!” Then, with a philosophical sigh,

he added:

“However, we have only started.” Further comment was held up by entrance of the black Arthur pushing a breakfast table on wheels. The sight and smell of that meal suddenly made me realize that we had been working all night and that I,

for one, was ravenous.

In silence we began to eat. There was creamed chicken on toast, hot rolls and marmalade, and the exquisite coffee which Colt's butler grinds ard boils with such loving artistry; the smell of that coffee is like an incense in my memory. After his third cup of that priceless beverage, and a voracious attack on the chicken, Dougherty leaned back, beaming brightly. When at last he spoke, his conversation had nothing

— I know this is murder!”

“What makes you say that?”

“That belt you found!” “Belt?” t ^

“Strap, I mean—the strap with

the buckle on it!”

“What did they find?’’ urged Colt, his voice charged with eagerness. , .. “Mr. Colt, they f o u n d on

and sunshine, and the joys of living the hermit's life, which Dougherty, wno had been married three times and had eleven children, could hymn with gusto. Colt responded in kind, enthusing over the fishing near the shores of Cape Cod, where he has his summer home. In this vein Hie talk rolled on, until Ar-

leather of that strap a number of thur interrupted u. with an anmicroscopic pieces of human skin, nouncement: 0

"There is a gentleman downstair and he would like to see Mr. Col right away, and he says it’s abou a murder case of a eirl named Mis: Christine, and he .us he has some thing to confess. And he says hit name is Guy Everett.” For a full momt nt, none of ut spoke. Then Colt -ached for hit pipe and murmured: “You may send up Mr. Guy Everett immediately." The appearance of the actor was tragic. Guy’Everett could not have dressed the part mental anguish more appropriately. He was still in the evening clc s which he hae worn when he lired Christine Quires to their N w Year party But now his collm was askew and his white tie was n issing. His face Was lined and hi. tgard and hit eyes were gleam: g restlessly. A dark slouch hat v as crunched in his right hand as he strode theatrically across the library and stood before the Police Commissioner in a posture of resolute despair. "Mr. Colt," he declared, “I have come here, hounded by my conscience, to make a confession.” "Of murder?” asked Colt quiet-

ly.

“God, no! But of having lied. 1 told you a lie last night and in) conscience will not let me rest!’* "Get it off your soul, man,” encouraged Dougherty, shoving forward a chair. “Sit down and tell it Straight!” Abruptly Guy Everett sat dowm on the edge of the chair. “I don’t know how much you guessed,” he blurted, fear and sincerity struggling through an habitual instinct to dramatize every breath he drew, "but what I am telling you is the truth, so help me God. It is true that I didn't go on the Motor Parkway last nighG— I spent ail those hours in a speakeasy trying to drink myself into a calmer state.” “What speakeasy?’* asked Colt. A blankness came into the actor's eyes and then as quickly disappeared. “It was the North Star, on West Fifty-eighth Street, near Sixth Avenue.” I made a note nt this, as Thatcher Colt motioned for Evcretteto proceed.
