CHAPTER Xl—Continued } —l«— , “Not a thing." answered Rawson. •But we were at a disadvantage; not enough light, and It's a good-sized place. We’ll comb It over tomorrow morning by daylight. Os course he could have got out on the island—all that kitchen wing's kept open. He might have been lying low up there all yesterday and huve come down last 1 night. All quite possible but —well, we ll know tomorrow." He walked to the window and looked out. “Dark as a pocket!” He turned to Bassett: "When the tide’s full out eould a person get across that channel except by the causeway J" “There are places where they might swim the stream In the middle. It’s a deep strong current but a good swimmer could do It.” “He might try It—he must be pretty keen about getting off here. You know this shoreline. Suppose you go down and take up a station below the boathouse among those Juniper bushes. That’s a place a person might use as a sheltered start tor a get-away. You can’t see but you can hear. Take Williams’ gun. and if there’s a sound, challenge, if there's no answer, shoot. I’ll come down with you, I want to take • look at Patrick and I’ll stayround myself for a while." He stepped to the sill of the window but Williams, feeling for his revolver. stopped him: “Hold on a minute. I got an idea that I think’ll help a bit. I’ve been thinking of it all day and if I’m not mistaken it’ll' land your man or your woman neater and easier than lying in wait for them outside where they know by this time we’ve got a guard.” Rawson turned back into the room: “Let’s hear it—we’want to clear this up tonight. But, Mr. Bassett, you go on. Stop and tell Patrick what you’re doing and see that he's on the job. I’ll be down with him later, unless Williams* idea opens up something new.” Bassett took the revolver and stepped out of the window. He reached the boathouse and groped his way about it to And Patrick. Coming round the angle where the man was stationed he pronounced his name and was surprised to get no answer. He stretched a feeling hand which came in contact with a large warm bulk. Immovable under his touch and giving forth a sound of heavy regular breathing. His own breathing stilled, his movements noiseless as a cat’s he struck a match and sheltering it with his curved hand, held it out. in its glow he saw Patrick huddled on the bench, his shoulders braced against the wall, his head droo|>ed forward in profound sleep. Pressed against the wail, he calculated the distances him. The approach to the causeway was to his right, an Incline of rocky steps, and In the stillness he could hear the lightest foot descending them. On such a night Joe might venture again —would venture If his nerve still held. If he did it would be within the next hour, and If Patrick slept and Rawson did not come he would go by unchallenged. A fitful breeze arose, carrying sea odors. He heard the murmurings of the tide growing lower, fainter, till they sunk to silence and he knew the bed of the channel was uncovered. CHAPTER XII Williams thought highly of his idea. It had come to him that morning while thinking of the person he bad heard descending the stairs, the person he insisted was Mrs. Stokes. - it was a simple and practicable plan —a watch kept for the rest of the night on tite stairs and certain points of exit! In the face of positive orders two people had come from the upper door the night before. Miss Tracy on an errand that Rawson thought suspicions, Mrs. Stokes, tn Williams’ opinion, to communicate ifith her bus band Even if both men were wrong some powerful incentive was making them take such risks and It was natural to M&poae that incentive might be strengthened after twenty-four hours of strain and uncertainty. They might try it again, and to catch them at it, surprise them in the act—if they didn’t break down on the spot—a little grilling woutd do the job. Rawson looked at his assistant with nt; approving eye. The idea was good, excellent, and without waste of time they arranged the dtsirlbutiim of the watch. Williams would take the front stairs, Ms particular prey was there and he had already located the position of the electric light button. Rawson would station himm-lf in the kitehen With its two doors erne to the outside, roe to the hall. The living room they would assign to Shine, less important than either of the other ambushes, but commanding the entrance to the <de <iftt and the i«ath to the causeway and dotk. Anyone descending the back stairs to make an exit from the house would either turn to the kitchen or go through the living room, and whichever way they took, would ran into a trap. The men were satisfied. each one was detailed to the spot lie escpeci u* spprt IWCSu the object of bls suspicion. The living room, central and exposed, might safely be left to Shine. They found Shine in the butler’s with the plan, and stumbling and Ty Xu Bml&T lit’*' WT3* t'o Ms hMing place, the other two faring on to the scene of Shine’s duties. Here

stairs. Shine looked from the door to Williams with a perplexed frown. He did not like to admit —no more than he had liked to display the healthy vigor of his appetite—that he was so sleepy It was doubtful whether he eould keep awake. In this embarrassing position, when be desired to acquit himself creditably and feared the weakness of his flesh, he too had an idea. They just wanted to know who the person was, didn’t they? He wouldn't have to catch them, which would be nearly impossible In the dark and was unnecessary as no one eould get off the island. To see them, be able to Identify them, get onto who was stealing round the house, was the point If that was enough he'd away of doing it the surest and most efficacious way it could be done, no scrambling round the furniture, no uncertainty—

In Its Glow He Saw Patrick Huddled on the Bench. he’d set his small camera for a flashlight photograph. The materials were all at hand. AU he had to do was to get them ready and if anyone entered . by the door he was to watch, he’d have their number before they knew it. Williams was interested —it was a neat trick and tkkled his fancy. As he was ignorant of the process, Shine explained it. getting his properties from the cabinet as he spoke. The tlasb-Ugbt powder in a saucer on the table, then a double wire extending from it to a point above the door—the .pair of antlers would answer. There the wire would be cut, one-half hanging down from the antlers, the other twisted round the door handle, its end standing out. When the door was opened the two severed ends would come in contact and make tbe circuit which would set off the powder. He did not tell Williams that the taking of ithe picture eould be achieved whether be was asleep or awake, but that tM. camera would make its record wliatbser his slate was an immense relief to his mind. Williams left and he quickly completed his preparations. Before be made his final adjustment of the two wires he unloosed the latch of the door that it might open easily and noiselessly at the first push of a stealthy hand. Then, his camera in place, he turned off the lights. The room was suddenly plunged into Egyptian blackness; he had to feel for the chair be hud pulled up, and, grasping the triirnd. nearly upset It. Swearing under his. breath, he found the arms of tbe chair and let himself down upon it carefully, to avoid creaking. The silence of the house closed around

Dogs of St. Bernard Find Snow Handicap

The dots to be found today io th« great and tittle St Bernard passes in Switzerland are of a smaller and less striking type than formerly. They are a cross between the Newfoundland and the sheep dog of the Pyrenees. They have been credited, moreover, with rather more than they can perform, says Charles Lincoln Freeston In the Motor Travel Magaaine. A Swiss professor of Geneva, given to making adventurous cross-country Journeys on skis, relates that on one occasion, when he was within sight >f the great St. Bernard hospice, the <tags came rushing out. but .were unable to reach him through the soft snow, tn which they floundered hope iessly He Is of the opinion that the uses of the famous dogs are more limited than is popularly supposed.

Roughly speaking, they were associations of producers of a particular commodity within a particular area, grouped together to protect their own Interests and the interests of the consumer.

Mm. a silence that was like oblivion. The darkness showed no break as his glance traveled over Jt. A solid. Impenetrable wall. It was hard to look at the eye required something to rest upon. After he had stared Into it for what seemed a measureless stretch of time, he felt he must shut his eyes for a moment of respite. He did so. bis head drooped, nodded sunk, and h*> lay a big crumpled figure held in the embrace of the chair. A bang—ln that silence as loud as a cannon shot—-a rending burst of light waked him. Then from every side of the house noise broke, groans, screams, slamming of doors, thudding footfalls. Williams* voice shouted the first intelligible words: “You got them —good work! Where the h—l are the lights F’ That shook Shine into consciousness, and he called to the gallery, whence a patter of bare feet and female cries rose: “It's all right Don’t be scared. It's only a flashlight.” Male vo|ces followed, harsh and loud, as the men came rushing tn. Rawson's from the left with the crash of the door flung back against the wall. “What are you doing here? What was that?" Bassett’s from the entrance, his body colliding with furniture as he ran blindly forward. Somewhere in the darkness behind, Stokes', high and choked, breaking into curses. And over all Miss Pinkney's riding the tumult like the war cry of the Valkyries: “Why don’t some of you fools turn on the electricity? The button's on. the right side of the door.” Bassett's hand found It and the room was flooded with light The women in straight white nightgowns stood on the gallery huddled together. The dreadful darkness lifted. they leaned over the railing, their faces pallid between hanging locks of hair, dropping a shower of questions on the men below. One of them was hysterical and gave forth a sobbing wail, and Williams shouted with angry authority: "Keep quiet up there. Nothing’s the matter. Didn’t you hear It was a flashlight?" Someone strangled a scream —Williams thought it was Flora but could not be sure. Then they made a simultaneous retreat to the bedrooms for negligees and slippers, while the men. gathered round Shine, listened to his explanation. No, he’d seen nothing and heard nothing, but he’d got the picture all right, whoever it was, he had them. Now he’d go and develop it—he could do that in a few minutes —and there was the projector In the corner he could use. throw It onto something where they’d all see. A sheet over that screen by the desk would do. , They urged him out. they'd attend to everything: hurry up with the picture. Williams was unable to hide his elation. His Idea, augmented by Shine’s, was a bull’s-eye hit, and his voice showed an exultant excitement as he called to Miss Pinkney to bring a sheet Rawson’s satisfaction wus less apparent, but his eye was alight with anticipation. If it was the boy. he had run back upstairs, for no exit had been attempted through the kitchen. With the whole house astir he’d be afraid to come down and they had him safe as a rat in a trap. Impatient at the wait for Shine’s reappearance. he left the room, saying he was going to the boathouse for a word with Patrick. The noise of the women's footsteps on the stairs came in a descending rush. They burst in. their voices going before them, a scattering of gasped, explosive utterances. “Can’t you d —d women keep still V Stokes ground out between his teeth. ’ (TO BE CONTINUED.)
