The OREGON STATESMAN, Salens Oregon, Wednesday Morning, November 27, 1929 PAGE NINE "So now I is oss we can get Sown to talking business," observ ed Ferris, while the butler, who bad brought his breakfast, walked to the end of the room but didn't fco out of it. "You've found out a lawyer's rime. And I'm to slip you ten gi-and for it, la that the play as yu figure it's coming Off?" "To a hair." replied Stefano, And looked l ira quietly between Jthe eyes. "You're to pay it and I'm Io receive it. When I tell you the awyer's name, but not before." t Ferris looked at him with hate. ' "But you threw a vine party last night, didn't you? Is that sup posed to go into the expense ac count?" "Certainly not. That was a friend's generosity. Every bottle lof it gratis. Nc, that won't be tab ulated in the account." "I'm glad to hear it," retorted FerrfS calmly. "So your friend's generous is he? He didn't size up ike a very big btarted guy to me. But I guess a? a business man he knows his onion?.' "Who the devil are you talking about?" demanded Stefano, won dering suddenly if Ferris knew "Monty was the donor of the cham pagne. "Pound. I ain't wrong, am I? I guess I know when I've been double-crossed. What about it?" ' Pound?'"' and Stefano looked at him disgustedly and wearily, "I never saw Pound but once. The lay I signed a lease with him. Yes I did too. Once afterward when I epoke to him about an account 'with his bank for a friend. Notice, don't you, that I don't regard you as worthy lying to?" "Yes," Fe;ris answered Imper turably. "I notice every little .thing. My qlockers watched you go in and out that day." "Oh I dare Eay. But not that I care a curse." Stefano's tone was careless and taunting for he was losing patience very faL '''Who else did they see there who-was specially interesting?" Ferris sat gazin g at him briefly. Ins eyes hard as flints. The he aid: , "She's upstairs: " , "Who's upstairs?" Stefano's taunting manner did "not change as he put the question. But as he spoke all interest left :iiim concerning the ten thousand ,-dollars he had hoped to receive, and he thought only of Nathalie. When Ferris spoke again he re solved that, come what might, he j-would not leave the house while Ferris was in it or until he was certain beyond peradventure that Nathalie was securely out of it. "Who's upstairs did you say Captain?" said Ferris presently, his eyes drilling Stefano's hard. So you want the name and all h? All rlht. Nathalie Van Blaick's upstairs." "Sure of it?" asked Stefano, as though it was of no Importance." "Dead sure," announced Fer TU. "I suppose you'd like it If I took a walk up." - "I fancy it'd be Just as well not for you to attempt to," Stefano answered him at once; "I'm cer tain it wouldn't in point of fact." He meant only that if Ferris MAKE THIS HOLIDA Y ONE OF JOY, HEALTH l)r. Copeland Sends His Thanksgiving Message, v Urging That This, First of Our National Holi days, Be One of Thanks and Recreation.

But Ferris misunderstood all men like Stefano. He nodded: "That's good enough for me. I ain't trying it after last night. But I seen her with ihe make up off even if I did nearly eat a bullet." This meant nothing at all to Stefano. He had no idea in the world that anyone had watched Nathalie from a tree and that she had been courageous enough to shoot at him. He got .up hurriedly as Stefano leaned back in his chair add put both hands into the pockets of his motor coat. "Keep 'em where they are, Cap tain," said Ferris, shakily. "I'm on my way out. And listen. I give you credit for something. You were a clever fella when you had the steel door put in and didn't slip me no duplicate key. I ought to have suspected then that you was going to sell out to Pound but I was dumb. I think I'll take a walk, over to Brookviile. So long." As he left, Stefano saw the eyes of Niccolo, the spurious butler, answer the eyes of Ferris in a se cret signal and it dawned on him that Niccolo was still in the long room was on guard over him and certainly armed. Niccolo's hands were in easy sight with nothing in them, so Stefano said, -nothing to him until he saw Ferris reach the opea door at the end of the hall and go outol the house. Then he said: "Niccolo.1 "Si, Signor." Tou were present one night," Stefano l reminded i hlnf pleasantly, and In. Italian, "right in this reom when a lady was diverted as she watched me at target practice?" "Si Signor,". acknowledged Nic colo, and remembered vividly the night Stefano had shot at a candle the full length of the house and snuffed it out. A shiver went through through him. "That same admirable weapon" Stefano assured him, Vis in one of the pockets of my motor coat while we talk so agreeable. Which pocket, Niccolo?" Stefano was not armed. But Niccolo made a gesture of despair and sat Quietly in a chair with his hands on the arms of it and kept them there. He did not alter their position for two hours. Nor did Stefano move at all until a sudden half muffled .commotion somewhere in the grounds surrounding The Firs caused him to spring to his feet. CHAPTER XXX. When Nathalie saw, unknown to them from the top of the stair case, Stefano and Ferris standing below her; and heard Ferris greet Stefano like a familiar friend and Stefano answer that he was pre pared to give Ferris the informa tion he needed if Ferris was ready to pay; Nathalie was sure that Ferris was on hand to take her in to custody and that Stefano was about to betray her. She was shocked and horrified. But had the caution to step out of the line of their vision softly and articles to get to the printer and then to you. For this reason they are prepared in advance of the time yon read them. So here I sit and project my mind forward t the frosts of November and the joys of Thanks giving Day. Yon will get this message on the day preceding this, our first national holiday. It is easy for me to picture what will take place n Thanksgiving, 1929. In Michigan the weather will be cold and blustery by late aldvem Ber. I have known this stream to be frozen ever ' before Thanksgiving.

Then, her hands shaking so that she was scarcely able to accomplish it, she removed her dancing slippers and la stocking feet hurried as fast as she dared to her rooms and locked the heavy door behind her. Inside she flung herself en the bed and lay there sobbing until the very Intensity of her emotion and terror exhausted her and she began to grow calmer and wonder what there was for her to do. Beeause the heavy shutters on the windows of her rooms were all drawn it was pitch dark In them, and because the window sashes were down and fastened It was stifling and hot. The clock on her mantel struck and she noted the hour seven. It was the deliberate and serene striking of the small French clock which roused her to the realiza tion that she could not lie where she was forever, and she began to cry again as she wondered why sne had been left undisturbed. Why Stefano and Ferris, or assur edly Ferris, if Stefano were too cowardly to face her after betray ing her to Ferris, had not come up and demanded that she open the door in the name of the law. As she lay still longer and no one came, she remembered what her maid had told her. That no one could unlock the heavy steel door behind which she lay f the inside key of it had been turned and that Nathalie had alj the keys there were. As this thaucht came to her she was sure that . the treachery which had been wrought against her was deeper than. ever. That the sole .reason for the' dopr which guarded her was that it was Intended that she should make herself her own prisoner. (To be continued tomorrow.)
