CHICAGO. W) "Penthouse frocks."
That's the latest In fall fashions.
These new dresses were so named
because their designer, b envisaged
creations of silk, satin, velvet and
lace, dressy enough for a roof dwell
ing and yet warm enough to with
stand a 20-story breeze on an out
door terrace.
Numerous models of these were
displayed at the 64th semi-annual
fashion mart of moderately priced
merchandise attended by several
hundred buyers, mainly from the
smaller towns over the country.

Chapter 31
"DROP YOUR GUN!"
VERY quietly, listening for
sounds from the eorvants'
quurters, Jerry and Stevens walked
down tho long, silent hall of the
west wjng.
Door after door they passed un
til at last they reached that which
they knew opened Into Luccl's
room. 1 Here they stood for many
momenta, listening against the
pine panels for sounds of the oc
cupant. Of Luccl there was not the
least sound, but their hearing was
disturbed by (he steady footfalls
of a man In tho next room, who
appeared to be pacing back and
furth within the close confines as
a ship's captain marches to and fro
on his lofty bridge. But Luccl was
still out of the building. Of that
much the pair were sure. He could
scarcely have gone to sleep with
his plans for the night so close to
maturity.
"Who Is doing all the walking?"
whispered Jerry cautiously.
Stevens glanced about, mentally
tajlylng the occupants of each
(bom.
"Hamilton." he brthed and tip
toed to the door from which the
sounds wero Issuing. After a mo
ment of stony Immobility, ho beck
oned to tho flyer, who Joined him,
car to panel. .
The man within, walking rest--lessly,
could be heard muttering
disjointed -'-phrases. As his -voice
rose 'and fell, scraps of sentences

outside.
"Chicago . . , always talking

endlessly. The muttering - sub
sided. Jerry straightened up and
looked nt Stevens with growing
horror In his eyes. The .little man
still crouched, attentive, his calm
face showing no expression. The
voice rose again.
"Martin's pop eyes, always look,
ing . . . looking . . . can't play Can
field with those eyes staring. . . .
Too hot to wear wool. . ', . Prlco go
ing down . . . Martin's fault, damn
him.!' Tue-voice rose in sudden
crescendo. '"I'll kill him and then
I'll bo cool, again!" The footsteps
ran across the room. There came
the sound of a key turning in the
lock.
The detective straightened lip
and dragged Jerry to a position
against the wall, Just beyond the
hinges of the door. Hamilton, wild
eyed, dishevelled, stepped out Into
the dim hall, a heavy automatic In
his hand. In an Instant Stevens
had twisted the gun out of his
grip. Jerry, his powerful arms
around the slender figure of the
cra.cd man, pushed him, strug
gling, biting and kicking, back Into
his room.
"It's too hot to start anything
tonight, sir," Stevens told him,
soothingly.
Hamilton still struggled, but his
emotional crisis hat1, passed. He
looked thin, haggard and old.
"I must seo Martin," he wills
pored helplessly. "If 1 can see
Martin tor a minute, everything
will be all right. It'll be cool again,
the price of wool will go up and
we'll have a little peace."
' "That's all right," murmured
Jerry, lifting him and placing him
at full length on the bed. "You'll
see him In the morning."
Swiftly,' skillfully, Stevens tied
his hands and feet with torn strips
of sheeting, adjusted his limp fig
ure to a comfortable position and
pushed a pillow under bis head.
He walked to the dresser, opened
several drawers, then, with an ex
clamation of satisfaction, took out
a double handful of cartridge clips
and slowed them In bla pocket.
"See yon in the morning, Mr.
Hamilton," ho said quietly. He
switched off the light and followed
Jerry Into the ball, carefully lock
ing the door behind him, "Come
on. kid. We got a gun. now."
The living room waa still de
serted. They stepped out on the
porch, looking toward the north
where, near the end of the long,
narrow Island, the hangar nettled
beside the Inlet. From .the direc
tion ot the hangar came a dark
figure, making no effort at conceal
ment. The sound of voices could be
heard from the westerly corner of

cided, returning from their Btroll.
The flyer crouched a little, sens

stopped. The white head turned
toward the oncoming figure.
"Who is thai?" Ashwood In
quired, Idly curious.
"It's me, Luccl."
"Have you forgotten that I told
you to remain in your room at
night?" .
Stevens, on hands and knees,
crept toward tho rail, Jerry close
at his side.
"Ah, to hell with you and your

crimson spurt from Luccl's auto

tho two crouching men on the
porch. The gangster, with a curse,
turned and ran at full speed to
ward the hangar, zigzagging and
dodging behind the slender trunks
of the palms as he continued his
precipitate flight through the dark
ness. Ashwood's gun flamed once,

In his hand. The cripple gazed

"And they sny there's no Santy

"Bettor come up horo and let's
talk It over," suggested the old
man casually.
Tho screen door squeaked on Its
hinges. Jerry spun around, hia
muscles quivering, tensed for sud

was Alfred, the steward. He
glanced at the two vigilant men.
"Beg pardon, sir," he bowed, au
anxious frown on his usually ex
pressionless forehead. "I was look
ing for Mr. Ashwood, sir."
''Here I am, Alfred," called the
cripple, limping up the stops.
"What is it?"
"Sir, I must tell you that the
other servants have all gone down
to tho hangar. I'm afraid there Is
trouble, sir. Here Is a revolver.
You will need it soou, I think."
"Good boy, Alfred. Better keep
the gun. Any more of them
around?"
"No, sir. I had this one hidden
under my mattress."
"So the whole outfit has de
serted, eh?" The leader's voice
held a tinge of regret. "I had
thought they were loyal."
"They were, sir," the steward as
stired him, "until Luccl told them
they would be arrested as soon as
you left Since they knew 1 would
not Jolg them, they did not trust
me, I do not know their plans but
I think they are going to steal the
planes and fly away."
Ashwood turned io the others.
"Alfred was my batman during
the war," be explained simply.
"We can count on him."
There came a series of staccato
stopping noises, as though an ox
driver were flicking bit whip about
their ears. The flv dived uncere
moniously for the shelter of the
living room. From the easterly cor
ner of the house the knife like
flashes of a machine gun slabbed
the darkness.
"That's the guard on the Inshore
beach." said the cripple. "Seem to
be pretty well surrounded, don't

DEATH TAKES
BROUTHERS, OF

EAST ORANGE, N. J., Aug. 3 WV
Baseball lias lost another of its "Im
mortals" with the death at the age of
74 of Dan Brouthere, mighty slugger
with the Baltimore Orioles of a half
century ago.
Brouthers, the "Babe Ruth" of his
day, succumbed at his home here lost
night after a heart attack.
Old timers insist that Dan could
have hit a baseball further than Ruth
If he could have had the privilege of
swinging at the lively pellot in - use
since the war. He didn't hit as many
home runs as his contemporary, Sam
Thompson, but h9 walloped them
further.
Ho led the National league four
times in batting but suffered a bit
ter disappointment In his best year
1887. He clouted .410 that season
and failed to win the league batting
championship because "Pop" Anson
finished with an average of .421.

tho last four days of the 1030 sea '
son, when he replaced Joe McCarthy,
will be succeeded by Charlie Orlranv J
