Skilled direction is needed lest there be a full breach in the walls arid the forces be put to extreme rout Such a situation we foresee in the triumph of the democrats with their platform of unconditional re peal. The moment that repeal occurs saloons will open in states like New York, Montana, Wisconsin which have al ready repealed their pcohibitionary laws. The full swing of the pendulum will carry wets into victory in many other states.

CHAPTER TWENTY AS tits long-distance conversation ended, the work of the vacuum cleaners was getting underway. Instantly the pent-house of Lola Carewe was filled with s weird sound. At that dark hour th moan ing whine, the wheezing drone of those vacuum cleaners operated by two young detectives from Center Street echoed mournfully through the rooms. Every particle of dust ta the room where the crime had been done was being garnered into those bloated pouches. Millions of infinite particles were being bagged like so much gams for the hunter, treasure dust in the man-hunt. Somewhere ia the multitudes of particles there might lie, Invisible to the naked eye. s vital due. To some police detec tives the carpet sweeper is a tool as Indispensable as the magnifying glass, the tape measure, and tha Ink ef the finger-print man. But District Attorney Dougherty viewed the two machines with a bilious eye. -Colt," he sTrlstrnfd, with a proachful glance back over his shoulder, I didat know yew had gone m for this sort ef thing." "Ever hear of It before T" "Oh, IYe read about the Viennese police doing something of the kind. But it all seems very f addistie te me. If yoa dont mind my saying so. I dont believe yoa can solve crimes by looking at sweepings under a microscope." "But Mr. Dougherty started to protest. "Any more." Insisted the Dis trict Attorney, crushing me with a glance, "than X believe you can ten fortunes with tea-leaves." Colt smiled but did not reply. He want te the telephone and eailed1 a Morningside number. His conver sation was revealing. "Halle, Professor Lockner. I sorry te get yoa out ef bed. This Is Thatcher Colt. I am engaged a very mysterious ease, and I want te send yoa some specimens for analysis. Bags of 'dust and the clothing of two murdered girls. Could yoa start ia right away? I can have them there la aa hour. . , . Thank yea." As he hung up the receiver, CoH turned te Flynn. as xsauy, sena tne rae cleaner bags and aU the clothes ef the two girts te the apartment of IXorningside Heights. The mea need net wait there." -., j TOghtr : Colt tamed away.) His dark brews were concentrated la aa un accustomed frewa, I saw that some facet ef (his double riddle had as sumed Irsnsenss importance ia his ryes. Perhaps it was only guess work, bat I had a hunch that the chief was stfil preoccupied with the problem of those strange markings oa tbe aeek ef . Christine Quires, With aa abstracted sir; he crossed the living-room and passed down the corridor te the foyer and the front door. Dougherty j was about to frQow but I motioned te him te remain. Together we stood by ths fireplace, smoking; cigarettes. "What ta he looking for?" rambied Dougherty eat of the ear ner ef bis mirth, after five minutes ef silence. - - ! - "The mardererf" 1 grinned. At that saoaeat, Colt reappeared ia the doorway. His clothing wa. wet, his black hair tousled. He had been eat en the terrace. His eyes were set ia aa intent igase that almost somnsaboSsae is its complete eoacentratioa.' Never had the chief so deeply tnunersed m a problem. With slow, plodding steps be traversed the living-room and then, suddenly,!! realised what it waa he waa doing. He was retracing his own Itiner ary, just as we had followed Lola Carewe hoars age on a tour through the rooms ef the apartment. What was ths. purpose ef this steady retracing of eld steps? I watched, fascinated I had not seea Thatcher Colt la this strange mood before. The personal challenge, per haps the very Impertinence ef these murders, had brought him to a high pitch ef determined effort Te the kitchen be went and from there through room after room. Wei did not follow him, but we could hear him, poking about in closets, and opening boxes sad trunks, even lifting windows and trying doors. Finally be came back to us, hav ing completed the circuit and re examined all the rooms. As be en tered the drawing-room, J saw him thrust some large object into the left pocket of his trousers. It made s noticeable bulge. But of this object which he bad concealed, Thatcher Colt made ne mention at the moment. Instead he held out his right hand.1 on which lay a long, golden strand of hair from the bead of a woman. "Does that mesa anything te you!" be asked, bis voice brittle, unnaturally calm. I saw. that he had not looked la vain; he had made discoveries sad he considered them important. . ; "It Is a hair, the color ef Chris tine's hair," declared Dougherty. "Where did yoa find ttTT "Oa the floor ia Lola's room.' "But how could yoa find a tiling like this a thin strand of hair" "Because I knew where te look," answered Colt grimly. "It a window." "A terrace window?" 1 "Ne, Dougherty one that opens ea a straight drop ef twenty-three stories te the street." Dougherty raa a thick hand through his mop ef red curls. His blue area, bedeviled, rolled unhappily. "How, Thatcher , he pre tested. Bat Colt, having turned the strand of hair ever te me, was al ready st the guest-room door, talk ing te Flynn. I found sn envelope, put the hair in it, marked the en velope sad pat tt la my pocket. "Leave' a good maa ia charge whoa yoa ge back te Headquart ers," the chief waa telling Flynn. "I shall be at my home. If the Rochester caO comes, switch it there. And ksrp tne posted." Ia eflenee, Dougherty and I fol lowed Colt down the corridor to ward tha foyer. But midway ia the passage, the Commissioner paused ana faced snoot.-". i -'; x : "I had f ergottea sotnetMng," to murmured. "Something Important. Returning te the IMng-roosa, he crossed to what had been the boe doir of Lola Carewe aad knocked Dorothy Lox opened the door. "On the dresser,", directed the Commissioner, without entering, "there Is a framed picture ef young man, May I have the piecars ? "No," protested a cross eld veto from within, "That's Lola's plctars and ra going te see te It it coat late her coffin," -There's plenty of time for thai." answered Colt "Lefs have the pie ture." There waa ne further protest With the framed portrait ia bis hands, Colt went te a smeS table . in the living-room. There, with bis gloved hands, he pried at the bach of .toe frame' and finally ft feu apart ia his hands, frame, glass, backing and photograph. It was the picture itself that be wanted. Holding It up to the Bght he studied the photographer's trade mark at the lower part ef the card board mount "Marcel Grandon, 60, Avenue DTena," be repeated alood. "I caa . remember that" Deliberately he rests enabled the pieces into order and then put the framed picture into my hands, "Toa take charge ef that, Teay. he instructed. TU tell yea whet te do with it later." On the first landing.CoHstoppedsa, "Tony," be said, "I am sending yoa down to Headquarters with several things of the utmost im portance te this ease. Listen fully, for If my Instructions carried out, I believe we caa break this case In twenter-four hours!" "What are the things?" bfurted Dougherty, rubbing his hands with curiosity. From the breast pocket ef his evening coat Colt drew forth a bulky object wrapped ia a handkerchief. "Take this down te Headquar ters," the Commissioner directed. while Dougherty 'eyed the irregu lar bundle with podgy suspkiea. "Have its . contents analysed at once. Toa may ahew H te Mr. Dougherty handle it carefully." I drew back ths sUkea folds ef tbe handkerchief. There la my hand lay the hypodermic syringe ami needle which Doctor Baldwin aad used, just before Lola Carewe breathed her last! It was ths syringe, thea,' that Colt had lifted from the medicine case. Had Baldwin noticed? Surely he had not forgotten such sa im portant accessory! Or had be done just that, swept along in the ex citement T The possibility that Doctor Bald win had had a hand la the death ef Lola or Christine seemed remote te the! point ef absurdity. What op portunity had there been? But I had ne time thea for Idle speculation. From the left-hand pocket ef his trousers, Colt took out a cofl ef brown leather strap. It had a buckle at the end the kind of strap used oa trunks. I noticed that the strap had recently been wet "What's that for?" rumbled Dougherty, ogling the strap sus piciously. Ton will take this down to Dee tor Multooler," resumed Colt crisp ly. "Tell him I want it turned eves for a laboratory analysis. Also have that strand ef hair Identified as belonging te Christine." ' And the frame I" I prompted. Colt smiled at the framed pie tare as at aa eld friend. "Tea are to take the picture," he added, "to Mr. Gavin, the telegraph manager la Headquarters, TeB him I waat that picture sent to M. Du pont bead ef the Paris police force, tonight by telephoto.
