COQOE.NH.'8 UOTltnil. i- m ncconlnticc with orders Papa III Tlgnol nppcarcd at the Tilla I X I Wontmorcncjr betimes the next ' ' morning. "Ah, Papa Tlgnol J" said M. Paul as the old man entered, but thcro was no heartiness in his tone. "Sit down, sit down." Coquenll was packing a bag. "la anything wrong?" he asked final ly. "Why cp why, yes," nodded Co juentl. "Going away?" ho ventured. "!, I I'm going away." The dctectlvo leaned back and closed his eyes. He looked worn and gray. M. I'aul opened his eyes and said in a dull tone, "Did you take the girl to Pougeot last night?" "as; she's all right" "Goodl And you showed her the ring?" The old man nodded. "She under stands; she will be careful, but there's nothing for her to worry about now, la there?" Coquenll's face darkened. "You'd better let me hare the ring before I forget It" "Thanks!" lie slipped the old talis man on bis finger, and then, after a troubled pause, he said, "There Is more for her to worry about than ver." "Mora? Tou mean on account of Greener?" "Yes." "But he's caught; he's In prison." The detective shook his head. "He's aot In prison." "Not In prison?' "He was set at liberty about about S o'clock this morning." The old man scratched his head in perplexity. "I didn't know anybody was too Important to be tried for mur der." MHe can't be tried until he's com mitted for trial by a Judge." "Well? And Hautevllle?" "Because Hautevlll has been remoy d from office." "Wha-at?' "His commission was revoked this morning by order of the minister of Justice." Coquenil nodded and then added sor ser sor eowfully: "And you. too. my poor friend. Every one who has had any thing to do with this case, from the highest to the lowest, will suffer." "Whe-ewt He must be a senator or or something like that?" "Much more," said Coquenll grimly. Coquenll pointed to his table, where a book lay open. "Do you see that red book? Ifs tho Annualre de la No blesse Francalse. Yon'll find his name there marked with a pencil." Tlgnol glanced at the printed page, and tbero came over bis face an ex pression of utter amazement "It isn't possible!" he cried. Then slowly in awestruck tones the old man read from the great authority on French titles: Baron Felix ftaoul de Heldelmann Brock, only son of the Baron Georges Raoul de Heldelmann-Bruck. upon whom the title was conferred for Industrial ac tivities under the second empire. B. Jan. 19, ISO. lieutenant In the Forty-fifth cuirassiers, now retired. Has extensive Iron and steel works near St. Ktlenne; also naval construction yards at Brest Member of the Jockey club, the Cercle de la Rue Royale. the Yacht Club of France, the Automobile club, the Aero club, eta Decoratiens: Commander of the Legion of Honor, the Order of St. Mau rice and Lazare (Italy), the Order of Christ (Portugal), etc. Address: Paris. Hotel Rue de Yarennes chateau, near Langler. Touralne. Married Mrs. Eliza beth Coocan, who perished with her daughter, Mary, In the charity bazaar flro. "You see, ifs all there," said 11 Paul "His name Is Raoul and his wlfft"B name was Margaret She died In tho charity bazaar fire, and bis stepdaughter Mary la put down as having died there too. Wo know where she is." "This will rip things wide, wide open," said TIgnoL The detective shook bis head. "It won't rip anything open. How can I 'prove It? The courts are closed against me. And even If they weren't do you suppose- it would be possible to convict the Baron do neidelmann-Druck of any crime? Nonscnsel He'B the most powerful man In France. Ho controls tho bnnks, the bourse, the government Be can cause a money panic by lifting his hand. He can upset tho ministry "by a word over tho telephone." Coquenll lighted a cigarette and breathed In the smoke deeply. "Papa Tlgnol," he said, "I am through with this case." Tlgnol bounded to his feet, and bis little eyes Hashed indignantly. "I don't believe ltl" ho cried. "I won't have It! You can't tell mo Paul Coquenll Is afraid. Are you afraid?" "I don't think so." "And Paul Coquenll can't bo bought, can bo?" "I hope not" M, Paul felt In bis coat pocket and drew out a folded telegram. "Read that, old friend," be answered with emotion. Slowly Tlgnol read: M. Paul Coquenll, Villa Montmorency, Paris; House and barn destroyed by In cendlary tiro In night Your mother saved, but seriously Injured. M. Abel says in surance policy had lapsed. Come at once. ERNESTINE. "And you you claimed the old man. think it's his doing?" "Of course. They had warned me, they had killed my dog, and and now they have struck at my mother." He bent down his head on his bands. "She's all I've got Tlgnol; she's soven ty years old and luflrui. and no, no, I quit, I'm through!" "And the insurance?" Tlgnol asked presently. "What does that mean?" "I sent the renewal money to this lawyer Abel," answered Coquenll In a dull toue. "They have used him against me to to take my savings." There followed three days of pitiful anxiety for Coquenll at his strlcVen mother's side. Mine, Coquenil. bow ever, never wavered In her sweet faith that all was well. She was comfort able now In tho home of a hospitable neighbor. Finally Coquenll told her ell of the murder of Martinez and of the ad ventures that had befallen hjm In his quest of the slayer. The old woman would not listen to her son's stopping his hunt because of any danger that might threaten her, and she Insisted that It was his duty to track down the guilty man. Coquenll pondered over the situation for a day nud a night The next morning be came again to his mother's bedside with his old buoyant smile, and after loving greet ings he said simply: "It's all right little mother; I see my way. I'm go ing to take the chance, and." he nod ded confidently, "between you and me. think I hare discovered the tcay to tcin this flght against the most potcerful forces in all France." Starting on his newly outlined cam paign against the false nobleman. Co quenll succeeded in having himself employed as a stableman at bis luxu rious establishment on the Rue de Varennes. Next, by a Judiciously ex pended bribe, be gained tho aid of a bewhlskered flunky whs was one of the household attendants and who kept him informed as to the going and coming of the master of the house. Thus It came to pass that on a certain night In August about 2 o'clock In the morning. Paul Coquenll found himself alone in the baron's spaclou3, silent library before a massive safe. An ex. perienced burglar chaser naturally be comes a bit of a burglar himself. At any rate, the safe swung open In due course, without accident or Interfer ence, and the. detective, stood, before it (To Be Continued.), oast along said north lino of sal section 3G and tho prosont boundary of said city, to plnco of cominonco nunt; nil in Jackson county, Uicgon.
