Tho captain on duty re turned Immediately and showed them into Commissioner John K 11 rane's office. Tho commissioner greeted Tyler heartily. They shook hands, and Tyler introduced Cor don. Kitruno was flattered and impressed. Very skelchlly, Tyler explained that Cordon and his family were being menaced by assassins. Ho asked If l hey could look at photo graphs of known racketeers, those of standing and power. K Urn ne was glad to oblige. He accom panied them to tho bureuu of idem lllicnllon. They pored over pho tographs, but Cordon could re cognize none of them. "Of course we've only got I he mugs of those with criminal rec ords," said Kllrune. "Lots or them are too smart, ever to get caught In anything that's not legit. Those are I he most dangerous. We're helpless to deal with them. All their dirty work Is done by hired hoodlums." He ran through a list of half a dozen names: Flush Cold man, Danny Crew, Jim Cnbrlel, Nick Raiupoue, Culdo Morio, Mart Cres cent. "We haven't got a thing on any of those birds," said Kllrane. "Vet we're pretty sure they're all In the racket. They've got too much dough to come by legitimately. The federal men have tried to hook I hem all on the income-tax: gag, but they're too smart for that too. They always file returns on every dollar that can be checked against them." Alter they had returned to the commissioner's office. Tyler drew from a packet the faded uewspa tr picture of .loo Caudlo, which Nat had obtained at the Star's morgue. "Mean anything lo you, Jack V" Kilrane stared at the picture lor a long moment, scratched his head "ll's just faintly I'nmlliar," he said regretfully, "but I don't quite make 11. 1 most ha e sent I his guy somewhere -tr his picture. Cuess ii musl've been a long tune ago.", "The name's Caudio,' said Ty ler. "Joe Caudio." ! Hut Kilrane shook his head again, after a moment. "He ami his family kidnaped a boy In Chicago sileel or seven teen years ai;o," Tyler said, hying to prod the man's memory, "Wnll !" Kilrane said. He threw hack bis head, rinsed his eves, Then he smote his palms together. "I got it," be said. "Sure. Joe Caudio! Some! liing about a Jail break. This guy got a way clean. I was Jusl a precinct dick detec tive," he corrected, hastily. "Then was a general alalia ai the lime. I don't cem to recall whether they eer collared him." "They didn't," said T ler. "And he's the man we're looking tori now. Kilrane looked at the photo-' giaph. j "It's been a long time." he said "Hut I tell you yh.it I 11 do. I ll re. ive thai alarm. I don't sav w e ll j be able to pick him up, now. Hut j we may." In ihe afternoon they returned lo the estate. Carlotta. Pons, Nat j and Job niton w ere w aitiiiR for i litem w hen ihey got out of the I car. Cordon assured them all thatj Heitme was in good health. "Can't we go and see her toinoi-i row, t.tko her some Hunts?" Uoiisl diked, "We waut to wait until he eu-i mmk -' Z0r' tlrely recovered," said Cordon. "lint it wouldn't hurt to take her some flowers or some candy," said Carlotta. "The poor child, uhe'll bo lonely," "We'll see," said Gordon. "At least we can Bond her some thing," said Jioris. ,"(llve me the address, and . ; ! "I'll see that she gets It," said Cordon quickly. 1 Doris flashed a glanco at him. "Oh!" she said. "You don't want me to know where she is!" She turned and hurried away. Cordon impulsively started to fol low her, hut .Curoltta touched his arm. "JJon't, Paul," she said gently. "Doris is still upset. You mustn't pay any attention. I'll try to ex plain to her that Jleleno needs ab solute quiet." "Thank you, dear," said Cordon gratefully. Next day Cordon telephoned l)r. Peters, who said that lhdeifo had shown improvement. Hut he urged that she be given a day or two more. Two apprehensive days passed. The house, with guards both In side and out now, was more than ever an armed camp. Hut nothing happened. Doris made every etlort lo be friendly with Carlotta, und the tension between them soon eased. On the third day. in Hie fore noon, Dr. Peters telephoned. "1 think tite girl's quiie normal now," h said to Cordon. "She keeps asking ror all of you. I think it will he. all right tor you to run over tomorrow." "Can't I come today?" Cordon asked anxiously. "Hive her ono more night," said Dr. Peters. "I'll tell her you'll In here in the morning." Cordon left it at that. At lunch eon he told ihe others. "May we all go?" asked Doris. Cordon shook his head. ".Mr. Tyler and 1 want to lalk to her- alone." Iu said gravely. "Per haps she can shed some light---" "or course." said t'atlotta quick ly. "We can send Iot heaps "I Mowers. And this alienmou I'll run into the Hinge. There's soinelhlng I know shed love." "And I'll go with you," said loris. "Fine." said Carlotta. "I don't think you'd better" Cordon began. "Nonsense," said Carlotta. "Nothing's goim: to happen lo us in broad daylight. We'll take one of the chautteurs." Cordon glanced at Tyler, who shrugged. Somewhat tebiclantly Cordon agreed, lu the afternoon they appeared, ready to go to the town. At the last moment Cor don insisted on Han i irau's going with them. Doris protested that this wasn't necessary, hut Car lotta smiled indulgently at her husband, and said if It w nld make him feel easier, K was a fine idea, they promised to r'lurn before du-;k . . . Hut when darkness r.ime. they had neither returned tmr tele phoned. Onrdnn. more and more w on ted. telephoned the cottage, Tyler tried to reassure him, saving t hat noi hing mold have happen ert. or the'd have heatd ftont Har ngan. It was just a case of two women on a shopping orgy, for- getful Of the tNlte. Hut Cordon win so nervous and w'or i led that Tyler and Nat de cided to go to his apartment and smoke and chat with him, hoping to keep his mind off his fears The tflt-pboue ran, and Cordon jumped for it. U was L'ons ou the me good!" ; 1 wire. Nat and Tyler could hear her voice plainly. It was full of exictement and fear. "Dad ! We can't find Curlotta anywhere!" "You can't find her?" Cordon demanded. ' "We got separated in one of the shops," tlie agitated girl said. "1 we've looked in every other lit ore in town, thinking she'd slip ped off to buy some secret gift for 1 lelene. I ud, uomelhing dreadful must have happened.. She she's simply disappeared!" Gordon's face went gray. "Dis appeared?" 1m repeated tonelossly. Then-i his voIlj rising: "Disap peureiF.'" HiB hands dropped limply. Ty ler supported him with an arm, and Nat 'seized flu; phono from his nerveless fingers. He could hear Doris frantically calling into the phone. "Carlulla's disappeared." C o r don repealed dully. Nat spoke lo Doris, while Tyler still kept a firm grip on Cordon's arm. "Tell them lo wait right where they are." said Tyler. "We'll be there in fifteen minutes." Nat. repeated this. Cordon, with a tremendous etrort, pulled him self together, lie waved Tyler's arm away. "I'm all right," he suid. . "We must go at once. There must bo some mistake. They haven't look ed for her properly. We've got to find her." His voice rose, almost shrilly: "We've got to!" "You go with Cordon, order tho ear," said Tyler to Nat. "I'll join you in a couple of minutes." Nat nodded, and left the house with Cordon. Tyler quickly put on his coat. Ho glanced up tho stairs toward Ruth's door. All was quiet. Ho shook his head, puzzled. Then lie mounted the stairs. He opened his daughter's door, called to her. She woke instantly. Ho went to her side, took her band. "Ruth," bo 8ahl gently, "some ill in u's happened. Did you get an t hing?" He felt her hand tighten, con vulsively. "No." she said. "I've been tak ing a nap. 1 had a headache. I I got nothing. What's happened?" IP r voice loso suddenly, frighten imI. "Not milt der?" "No, no." he said. "Helene?" she asked. "II a s something--" "Carlotta," ho said. "She's dis appea red." "Carlotta?" said Ruth, puzzled. "Carlotta? I don't understand at all." Tyler kissed her, and urged her to lie down airain. "Welt probably rind h-r. lh"ti." bo said reassuringly. "S u r e I y you'll have known if anything ser ious had happened " "Hut I got not hing." she repeat ed. bewildered. Tl r gentlv pressed her hack on Hie pillow. He lold her he was po ini: lo iu e.oUale. hut that Nat would stay with her. Nat was al ready m the car with Cordon and NeNon when Tyler cainn out. Ho was disappointed at being left be hind, and started to protest. "Some one has to stav with Ruth." Tyler eaid. "t know," said Nat. "Hut can't Johnson--" "No, no." Tyler sharply. "You miii-t stav." Nat nndihd resign-, My nnd climbed mil of the car. The chauf feur stepped on the accelerator, geais meshed, and the car roared down the diMeway.

Tyler and Nel suu were silent. The harassed Cor don was in no mood for conversa tion. He kept bis hands clenched, staring straight ahead, repeating: "Faster, faster!" Ills mask of a face was oddly incongruous with the pain in his eyes. They found Hoiis, Harrlgan and tlie chauffeur, the same chauffeur who had driven them to the sani tarium, waiting for them on the mum street of the town. JJorls' face was tragic. She ran lu Cordon and threw her arms ubout him. Gently be freed himself, turned to Harrlgan. The man met his eyes squarely. "I wanted to tag along with them when they went into that store," he said. "Uut they wouldn't let me." Doris nodded. "It wasn't his fault," dad," she said. "It was mine! I should never have left her out of my Bight." "You've been everywhere?" Gor don asked. Harrigan nodded. "Wo went to the stores we hadn't yet visited," he said. "They all know her, of course. Hut no body 'd seen her. Then we went hack to all tho stores we'd, been in. She hadn't returned." Gordon stared helplessly at Ty ler, who addressed Harrigan. "You called all tho hospitals?" "There's only one in this hurg," "aid Harrlgan. "She wasn't there. Wo went to the police-station too, 'e'iilng maybe shu'd been hit by a cur or somethiu'. Hut thero'd been no accidents reported. The cops snooping around now," "Suppose we can't expect much of them," he admitted. Gordon motioned to Tyler and hurried into a drug-store. Tyler' squeezed into a phone-booth with him, ami Cordon gave a number. "Tho sanitarium," he explained. "Perhaps she slipped away to sur pilse Helene." "Hut she doesn't know where Helene is," ;uid Tyler, surprised. Cordon turned away from the phone. "That's so," lie said heavily. Some one came on tho wire, and be spoke, giving his name, asking if his wife had been there or call ed. She hadn't, llo asked how Heleno was, then, and was told she was much improved.

King Features Syndicate, Inc.) Here's to You Stranger! Here's a side elevation of the average delegate at the political Olympics. He is a home-loving citizen who manages to crowd all his affection on a penny postcard. Ho gets more instructions than a tourist asking questions a t a gasoline pump. He -pays his own expenses there and back. He is a trust ing individual who actually be lieves that the bosses count his vote. He will Join any stampede up the aisle without knowing the ob ject of the ankle excursion. He would manage to live and grow fat if the government plowed every crop under except the hot dog and popcorn. We do not know his reaction In these conventions, which will be wet. At the dry conven tions of '20, '24, '28 and '32 he managed to get his stagger syrup through channels as mysterious as Hendrick Hud son's northwest passage. At San Francisco. Chicago, Kan sas City, Houston, Now York. Cleveland and points hopeless, every spot was an artesian still. You could have your clothes clean ed by the breaths in elevators, and the alcoholic odor in hoto! lobbies was like black damp in tho coal mines. One spark would have ex ploded tho works. Allowing for the stresses and strains of human nature, we judge the 1936 conventions will be unusually sober and dignified. The aisle-stampedes will not be as rough and noisy because nobody will join them to walk a jag off. Thn hnntlog liquor of !)2l was poison. Tho legal booze of is overtaxed. There doesn't seem to bo much choice. If the delegate of 1936 is the same delegate of 1932 he will not know whether he is getting good liquor or not. In his time he has absorbed boil er compound, fusel oil, lamp black, various blends of car bolic syrup, wood alcohol, cor rosive denaturants, shoe pol ish both brown and black hair oil, shaving lotions, white iodine, bath tub gin, coal scut tle rye and rainspout Scotch, All of which has shellacked, var nished nnd simon Ized his tonsils and carbonized his tasto. His judg ment is as bud as the pup's who chased tho wildcat. Cive him the best and the finest that money or influence can secure und skilled hands v distill, nnd he will still be homesick for a horrible mixture of mucilage, depilatory and water proofer poured out of a rubber boot.
