U ths only guest Jim Sundean finds interesting when he is marooned tor a winter week in a summer hotel in Southern France. He dlstiusts the manager, Lovsohiem, and finds the hotel it' self an eerie place tilled with ills treesing noises most of them caused by the mistral, blowing relentlessly out of ths north. Then Sundean is wakened from a doze by Sue Tally's voundlng on his door She has sscaped an abdue tor; he calm her and goes to the lobby tor ths key ehe had forgot ten. The key is gone: returning he stumbles over a bloody corvee. Bus has dleavv-ared ; Lovsehtem ap pears and is reluctant to call the police.

And Im mediately afterwards I bad found murdered man beside that very door, and he had been murdered wltb the dagger 1 had last seen In Sue Tally's fingers. But the trouble was I didn't know what to da So I stood there looking at Lovschlem and said nothing. A small satisfaction was that my look Irritated Lovschlem end appar ently made blm nneasy. He said: "You Americans, you are all alike. How can anyone tell what you are thinking? Poker faces, that's what you call tbem. Now then, shall I call the police?" There was only one thing to say.

"You'd better call the police then, I eald. Lovsehtem, satisfied that I had ac cepted his word, was leaning over jtbe man again. "Ho look her. Someone's .robbed blm. Pockets emptied, notb ing anywhere." His hands no longer shrank; tbey were Instead ghoulish lj eager In their search. It was as it Lovschlem expected to And some thing that bad been overlooked. It so, he failed, tor presently be looked at me again. Tbls time his eyes were angry and little and vicious. He saldi "Who are you?" Later I was to ponder over that crazy Inquiry. Then It enraged me; I was angry, shaken, tired, cold, and I was still In the grip ot a night marish experience. "You know very well who I am. If you are Innocent ot this affair, call tbe police at once. It yon don't, I will. Keep your hands off that man!" I had spoken too late. He bad dragged out tbe knife and was holding It up Into tbe stream ot light so we both could see It. It was dark, and a slow drop was forming on It. But It wasn't a knife at alL It was a small dagger like a toy sword. It was a toy sword, and 1 had seen one like It only a little be fore. Lovschlem recognised It, too. He got heavily to bis foet. 1 preceded blm, however, Into my room, and we both stood at tbe fireplace star ing at the bronze clock. Tbe little bronze soldier's gauntleted hand was empty, and the eword was In Lovschlem 's fat hand. Or at least, I thought, a sword Just like It. Bnt Lovschlem dispelled my sprouting hope of that at once. He aid with Just a gleam ot ugly tri umph: THERE'S only one like It In tbe house. No, Mr. Sundean, you 'killed him yourself. You were very istnpld about It More stupid than I should have believed of you, for you've' tbe face of an Intelligent iman. But you killed blm." There are things that leave you o stunned that for Just a moment iyou feel numb as If suspended In void. Tbe thing that was so unreal and made everything else unreal 'was his accusation. "And you want me to call the po llloe." he added, with what ap proached a smile. It was still difficult to epoak. But fell at once things were real enough. A sudden memory had come to me with all tbe reviving Influence ot a stream of Icy water. Sue Tally bad stood there, almost where Lov scblem was now standing, holding that sword and running ber pink lingers along Its sharp edge and say ing that It was like a dagger. Then I had left ber alone In the room. I bad gone through the long corridors to the lobby, and from It I bad seen her figure cross the light from my door and vanish Into the OF KNIGHTS TEMPLAR PORTLAND, April 13. (AP) John K. Kollock of Portland wiu elected grand commander of the Grand Com xnandery. Knight Templar of Oregon, ISTH VMMisW GUM YOU If fc' 11 "Call them at once." He was visibly disconcerted. He stared at me and then took another step toward me peering Into my face. "Who are you?" be said again. Again, somehow, the question touched off my smouldering fury. I stepped quickly nearer. "OEB here, Lovschlem, I told yon 3 once who I ami And tbat I didn't kill this'manl" He backed away a step or two and someone from the corridor gasped shrilly: "What Is It? For the love of God" "Qrethe hush I" Lovschlem voice smothered the woman's cry. I whirled. - It was a woman, now, kneeling by tbe murdered man. A woman In a yellow shawl whose fringes dropped from her shoulders. Her red hair was drawn In a great knot at the back ot her neck. Lovschlem, tbe dagger still beld carefully between two tat fingers, left me and advanced .quickly to ward her. 1 followed blm and saw her turn ber horrified face up to ward blm and beard her gasp: "So, you've kill him." By that time he had bent over her, and 1 could not see past his bulk. I could, however, hear his voice. , "He was found dead on tbe land ing, tbore. 1 do not know who be Is. 1 am Just going to call the police. This man with me found him." He turned to me: "My wife can go and telephone for the police, since yon Insist." The rod-haired woman, then, was Madame Lovschlem. 1 could see her now as sho rose. She clutched the yellow shawl about her The tight folds hugged her full Oreast and narrow waist and curving hips; even at the moment I was conscious, as a man Is, of a kind of attraction aboul her. In the very act ot rising she had caught sight ot the dagger with Its ominous wet stain. Her shining eyes fastened on It, and widened, and beld tbelr gaze so fixedly tbat both Lov schlem and 1 looked at It, too. But she did not scream. She did not make any motion of fright She said Anally: "Lovschlem, you're a fool." tOopyright. 1B33. Mignon O.
