needed In his nianui'actory. Sweet
water felt all Irs o..iivk-tio:is c nntlrmed
and ended the cnllonuy with the tinal
question:
"And where 's his manufactory?
Might be worth visiting perhapi."
The other mace n yeiu:v.' said soau
tliing about myihwcit nnd rushed to
help a ctlstotnei. Sweetwater tnal; the
opportunity to elide away. Mere ex
plicit dirivtina. coul 1 easily he g ,t
elsewhere, and tie felt anxious to re
turn to Mr. ;t-ey and discover if pos
sible whether 1? would prove as much
u matter of em-prise to him as to
Bwwtwater liiMiself that the man who
aua-wered to thj name of Wellgood
wns the owner o? manufactory nnd a
barrel or two of drugs, out of which lie
proposed to make a compound that
would rob the doctors of their business
and make himself and this little vil
lage rich.
Sweetwater made only one stop on
his way to Mr. Orey's hotel rooms, and
tLat was at the stables. Here he
learned whatever else there wns to
know, and armed with definite Infor
mation, lie appeared before Mr. tlroy,
who, to his astonishment, was dining
in his own room.
He had dismissed the waiter and
was rather brooding than eating. Ho
looked up eagerly, however, when
Sweetwater entered and asked what
news.
Tlie detective, with some? semblance
of respect, answered that he had seen
Wellgood, but that he had been un
able to detain him or bring him within
his employer's observation.
"lie is a patent medicine man," he
then explained, "and manufactures his
own concoctions lu a house he lias
rented here on a lonely road some half
mile out of town."
"Wellgood does the man named
WellgoodV" Mr. Grey exclaimed, with
nil the nstonishmeut the other secretly
expected.
"Y'es, Wellgood .Tnmes Wellgood.
There is no other lu town."
"How long has this man been here?"
the statesman inquired after a moment
3f apparently great discomfiture.
"Just twenty-four hours this time.
He was here once before, when he
rented the house and made all his
plans."
"Ah!"
Mr. Grey rose precipitately. Ills
manner had changed.
"I must see him. What you tell me
mnkes It nil the more necessnry for me
i to see him. How can you bring It
I about?"
J "Without his seeing you?" Sweetwn
I (cr asked.
I "Yes, yes; certainly without his see

his own door and bold him in talk

1 to carry us there? Tlie least glimpse
1 of his face would satisfy me that Is,
tonight."
"I'll try," said Sweetwater, not very

this effort.

remained shoos, warehouses and even

Mr. (lie; was silent, lie was look
ing very earnestly at the building.
"It Is larger than 1 expected." lie re
maiked at the last.
Sweetwater himself was surprised,
but as they advanced and their point
of view changed they found it to be
really an insignificant structure, and
Mr. Weligood's portion of it more In
slgniiitnut still.
In rea'iry it was a collection of three
s'o'os ine'er ne r-of; two ,.f them
v.ere shut up and evidently unocea

diov. This was the manufactory. It
'ccupiod the middle place and present

showed. .e--ldes the lighted lamp 1
have mentioned, such signs of life as a
few packing boxes tumbled out on the
r:":'.il plait'enn In from, and a whinny
ing le.rse attached to empty buggy,
tied to a post on the opposite side of
the load. N
"I'm glad to see the lamp." inntteivd
Sweetwater. Now, what shall wo
do? Is It light enough for you to see

Mr. drey seemed startled.

to bring this Wellgood nearer. Hut do

reaches the buggy. I'll come back
again aud take you up farther down
the road."
"All right, sir." answered Sweet
water with a side glance at the speak
er's inscrutable features. "It's n go!"
And leaping to the ground he ad
vanced to the manufactory door and
knocked loudly.
No one appeared.
lie tried the latch; it lifted, but tho
door did not open; it was fastened
from within.
"Strange!" he muttered, casting a
glance at the waiting horse and buggy,
then at tlie lighted window, which
was on the secmid (Wr directly over
his head, "ijiiess I'll sing out."
Here he shouted the man's name.
"Wellgood! I say, Wellgood:" '
No response to this either.
"Looks bad!" he acknowledged to
himself, and, taking a step back, he
lookeil up at tlie window.
It wns closed, but there was neither
shade nor curtain to obstruct tho view.
"Do you Jee anything?" he inquired
of Mr. CIrey, who Bitt with his eye at
the small window in the buggy top.
"Nothing."
"No movement In the room above?
No shadow at tho window?'
"Nothing."
"Well, It's confounded strange!" And
he went back, still calling Wellgood.
The tied up horse whinnied, and the
waves gave a soft splash, ami that
was all. If I except Sweetwater's unit- .
tor-M oath.
Coming back, he lookeil ncain at the !
window; then, with a ;-sture toward
Mr, (Jrey, turned the corner nf the
buildlnt; and began to edge himself
niotig Its Fide In an endeavor to reach
the rear and see what It offered. Hut
he came to a sudden Htandstill, lie
found liImsHf on the edge of the bank
before he had taken twenty steps. Yet
the building projected nn. and he saw
why it had looked so large from a cer
tain point of the approach. Its rear
was built out on piles, making Its depth
even greater than the united width of
the three Mores. At low tide this
might te accessible from Im.-Iow, but
Just now the water wns almost on a
level with tlie top ofthe piles, making
nil approach initKissil.le save by boat.

I Approaching Mr. Grey for the second

j Mr. (Irey was slow In. answering.
I finally lie said:
J "The man may suspect our intention,

I know a lie-tier dod;.'e than that. We'll i
cin nmvent him. U e passed ooat- .

drive you up, procure t, roat and brinji
you back here by water. I don't be
lieve that he will expect that, and If
he Is in the house wu shall see him or
his light."
"Meanwhile lie can esenpo by the
road."
"Kscape! Do you think he is plan
ning to escape?"
The detective spoke with becoming
surprise, atd Mr. Cirey answered with
out apparent suspicion.
"lt Is possible, lf he suspects uiy
presence In tlie nolghliorhood."
"Do you want to stop hliuV"
"I want to see him."
"Oh, I remember. Well, sir, we will
drive qnthaMs, after n moment."
"What are you going to do?"
"OU, nothing. Yon said you wanted
to see the man before lie escaped."
"Yes. but"
"And that he might escape by tho
road."
"Yes"
"Well, I was Just making that a little
bit impracticable. A small pebtire In
the keyhole and why, seo now. his
horse is walking off! Ooc! I must have
fastened him badly. 1 shouldn't won

Hut It can't be helped, I cannot be
supposed to race after him. Are you
ready now, sir? I'll give another shout,
then I'll got In." And onco more tho
lonely region about echoed with the
cry: "Wellgood! I saj, Wellgood!"
There was no answer, and the young:

Mr. Grey attempted some answer,
Imi it was lost In the prolonged creak
of slowly moving hinges somewhere
over their heads. Spaces which had
looked dark suddenly looked darker;
hearing was satisfied, but not the eye.
A man's breath punting with exertion
testified to a nearby presence, but that
man was working without a light In n
room with shuttered windows, and Mr.
Grey probably felt that he knew very
Utile more than before, when sudden
ly, most unexpectedly, to hint at least,
a face stnrled out of that overhead
darkness, a face so white, with every
feature made so starlllngly distinct by
the strong light Sweetwater had
thrown upon It. that It seemed the only
thing lu the world to tho two men be
neath. In another moment It had van
ished, or, rather, the light which had
revealed It.
"What's that? Are you there?" came
down from above in hoarse nnd none
too encouraging tones.
There was nono to answer. Sweet
water, with a quick pull on tho oars,
hiJ "ireadv shot tho boat out of ItH

I small boat lu which our young
I I detective was Hinted with Mr.
J Grey appeared la the bay ap
proaching the ho called manufactory of
Wellgood. The looked Por light on tho
waterside was not then'. All was dark
except where the windo'ro reflected the
light of the moon.
This was n decided dnappolntment
to Sweetwater, If not . Mr. Grey,
lie had expected to detert signs of life
In this quarter, and this additional
proof of Weligood's absemi' from home
made It look ns If they had come out
on a fool's errand and mlgnt much bet
ter have stuck to the mad.

from his Hps. "Shall I n v In, sir, and

"You may row nearer. I should like
a closer view. I don't tHuk wo shall
attract any attention. Tbcvc are wore

Sweetwater was start l"d. Looking
round, he saw a launch, iv Homo such

from the mouth of the bat. Hut that
was not nil, I'-t voen It u them was
