NEWS NOTES OF CURRENT WEEK I. W. W«. WARMLY RECEIVED Threat to “ Fly Red Flag of An archy’’ Brings Arrests. OREGON STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST 1&(brawciei. of HddiiY^on Peace seen thl» (pear am ount Ms tro> phiet?” The man glanced at It, and then shrank back with a shiver.

The colonel would never have his collec tion touched. He or Miss Sherrick dusted ’em and arranged ’em them selves. He was always buying some new thing.” "Would Miss Sherrick know?” "Very likely, sir." "Thank you. That is all.” As the butler closed the door, the sergeant stepped up to the Inspector and saluted. "I should have noticed those collec tions,” he said. "I have made a fool of myself, sir.” "A man who can make such an ad mission is never a fool. Sergeant Hales. And now kindly take me up stairs to the colonel’s room. You can wait here, Mr. Phillips." It was close upon the half-hour be fore they came back to me, and I had leisure enough for considering the problem. When Peace had walked into my rooms at lunch time, mention ing that he had a case with possibili ties at Richmond, if I cared to come with him, I had never expected so strange a development Nor, I fancy, had he. This Colonel Bulstrode had served many years in India. Had the myste ries of the east followed him home to a London suburb? The gigantic force with which this spear had been thrown—there was something abnor mal there, a something difficult to ex plain. Yet, after all, it might be a simple matter. Boyne was presum ably a strong man, and the deadly fury that induces murder in a law- abiding citizen is akin to madness, giving almost a madman's strength. I was still puzzling over it when the door opened and the little Inspector walked in. "The story of Sergeant Hales?" I asked him. "Is he exaggerating— was the spear thrown with unusual violence?” "Very unusual. It Is the crime of a giant or----- ” He did not finish his sentence, but stood tapping the table and staring out at the gold and green of a sum mer sunset At last he turned to me with a slow inclination of the head. “Hales is waiting," he said, "and we must get to work. The light will not last forever." The sergeant led us over the lawn to the Wilderness and through Its paths to the wicket-gate. Showers in the early morning had turned the dust of the road Into a grey mud that had dried under the afternoon sunshine. The surface was scored into a puzzle of diverging lines by the wheels of carts and carriages, cycles and motors. Yet Peace hunted it over even more closely than he bad hunted the paths In the grounds. He was particularly anxious to know the position in which the body had lain, and finally the sergeant got down in the drying mud to show him. Apparently the colonel had walked about ten yards from the gate when the spear struck him. He had fallen almost in the center of the road, which at that point was broad, with stretches of grass bordering it on either side. HI b revolver had not been fired, though he had been found with it in his hand. Wre walked on down the road, Ad dington Peace leading, his eyes fixed on Its surface, and the sergeant and I following behind. For myself, I had not the remotest idea of what he hoped to effect by this promenade, nor do I believe had the sergeant. We circled the outside of the gardens, the road finally curving to the left, and bringing us to the entrance-gates. Here we stopped at a word from the Inspector. The little man himself walked on, and finally dropped on hia knees close to the hedge. When he Joined us again, it was with an ex pression of satisfaction. He beamed through the gates at the old elm ave nue, that rustled sleepily In the gath ering dusk. “What a pretty place it is,” he said. "Thank heaven that these old houses still find owners or tenants who dare to defy the Jerry builder and all his works. Hello, and who may this be?” He had turned to the toot of the horn. The motor was close upon us, for a steam-car moves In silence as compared to the busy hum of a petrol- driven mechine. It stopped, and the chauffeur Jumped down and ran to open the gates. Of the driver we could see nothing save a peaked cap, goggles, and a long white dust coat.
