"You were here, weren't you, in the role of, the Picaroon?" Dale laughed. "That's one of "Oh, I di'dn't care about the pearls. They are ! of order and neatness. Things were scattered about, the furniture had been disarranged, there were signs of some one's hurried departure. "Yes, I noticed it this morning," said Ferryman, following his glance. "I called Axelson's attention to It, and he acted sullen and discourteous. Then I discharged him. There is no longer any doubt in my mind but what certain persons have been j making Improper use of my house, possibly with Axelson's connivance. If so, I h.ope they are gone for good." He sighed, "You were inquiring about a certain Dr. Moffett the other day. Lately I have been thinking that perhaps such a person exists."

A chill crept into hi voice. "I saw some one from the window, and I wondered, l ean spare you a few minute." He came down the steps, cros-i fed over to 202. and with frigid '. politeness motioned Dale to enter. They ' walked into the library. Ferryman was holding himself a little more erect than yesterday, but traces of shock and grief remained in his fine face. "Be seated. Mr. Dale. I am rather surprised to see you after what' happened here last night." Dale smiled genially. "I saw Captain Summers at lupcheon. Queer sort. Summers, physically and mentally. His-head is too large, and tnere are too many Ferryman hesitated. For just a. moment he seemed Inclined to take Dale into his confidence, ad then his face closed up again. "No, nothing definite. In fact, I have had only the vaguest sort of inkling. Besides" with a glance over the confusion in the room "all that appears to be happily ended now." Dale frowned a little. Last night' excitement, together with the subsequent discharge of Axelson, had evidently prompted Dr. Moffett to make new ar rangements in great haste. This development was not to Dale's liking. His task had not seemed so difficult as long as he knew where the enemy could be reached. Now he would haVe to trace him to his new quarters. Doctor Moffett had added tlusiveness to his other formid able qualities. That would mean a new problem to solve and con sequent delay. In the midst of his reflections he found Ferryman regarding him with an intent puzzled ex pression. "You arc a bewildering person, Summer's refreshingly original ( Mr. Dale," he now murmured Mens.

Ferry-jman rose also and followed his leader to the door. There, with j still n trace of reluctance in his manner, he offered his hand. Dale shook it. He could see that, although he had not won the older man's confidence, he had made a good Impression. Half an hour later he was again In a telephone booth. .'THE DAILY NEW3 Saturday, Ac-mt " . .'
