SrSOPMS: Colin Beutltt hoe
gone to a myeterioue erooke' hang
out known at the ''club," on tho St.
Lawrence, to team a "member,'
Joe Laearre, el an attach by ht
jackere under Contain Dollaire.
Colin hopet for Laearre'e aid
aoamet the Uaek, Neio York killer,
lie ie too late: Dollaire eaeke the
elub, taearre ie badly mounded,
and Colin manageo to drag him at
the laet moment from the burning
"olubhouee." He telle Qermaine
Tremblay, hie flance'e, that he muet
return to New York, even though
the Uaek hoe marked him for
death.
Chapter is
ALIAS CLARKIE LUNN
IT ni f ettlng late almost time to
tart out on the "from twelve to
before daylight" rounds again. Colin,
pacing up and down tbe room that
he had occupied since his return to
N'ew York, halted abruptly and
stared moodily at the calendar on
the wall. The second ot August. It
was lust a month to the day since he
had left Cap a l'Orage.
From the calendar, hla eyes trav
led to the mirror on the bureau.
The reflection that returned his gaze
was neither that ot Colin Hewitt, nor
Mr. Routb, nor Donald Howard this
was an Individual with Jet-black hair
and Jet-black eyebrows, and deep cir
cles under the eyes that spoke elo
quently of habitual dissipation.
The face was pasty In color; tbe
toothbrush mustache gave the lips a
Papa Goyetto's
cruel and sinister expression. A quite i
well-dressed Individual, thought One
Clarkle Lnnn, alias oh, well, like
Roddy Turner, Clarkle Lunn. had
many other aliases on tapl
Colin smiled caustically so did
the reflection. Not a nice face but
a work of axtl Yet the art of old
Papa Ooyette had availed nothing,
and the weeks had gone by fruit
lessly. He flung himself Into a chair and
lighted a cigarette. Worry showed In
his knitted brow. What was he to
do? Oo on as he had been doing? The
result had been nil neither a break
nor a lead nor a clue of any kind.
It waa becoming a bit difficult to
keop on bolstering btmselt up with
the hope that something waa bound
to turn up Just around the next cor
ner. COULD he have dona anything
other than he had done? He had
a feeling tbat perhaps unconscious
y he had treated himself as though
Ss were actually one ot his own char
acters tor whom he was plotting the
way out from some ugly situation,
It waa natural enough that his
rmlnd might have run in those chan
nels. But, granting that were so, had
he anywhere Indulged an Instinct for
dramatlo effect at the expense of
bald reality, and thereby lost In any
degree his sense ot proportion?
He shook his head. The plan tbat
lie had mapped out for himself had
eemed all right at the time. It
teemed so now. But he had accom
plished nothing. Perhaps, after all,
he bad slipped somewhere. ,
His mind searched back over the
week! that were gone. He had loft
the Bonaventure at Quebec and bad
returned to Boston. From there he
had telephoned to Butch Connal. He
had taken no chances ot being seen
with Butch In New York, for Ileddy
bad beon one ot Butch Connal's
gang. Butch had met him In Boston
He had told Butch much ot what
bad happened, and he remembered
Butch's answer when he had then
axplalned what he wanted.
8 At EM, Aug. 39 (AT) Hal E.
Hobs, secretary of state, who has
teen absent Irom the capltol for sev
eral months for his health, will be
"Sure!" Butch had said. "There's
nothing to It. I can tlx that for you.
When you hit N'ew York even that
dick pal of yours down at the Homi
cide Joint would glre you the stony
stare. There's a guy right here that
I've pulled a lot of deals with that'll
make you wonder who you're looking
at every time you lamp a mirror."
And so Papa Ooyette had created
Clarkle Lunn. The thought ot Papa
Goyetta brought a smile. Papa Ooy
ette was a stumpy, gesticulating lit'
tie Frenchman, by profession a cos
tumier, by nature a crook.
He paid no income tax on what he
received from the rentals of cos
tumes for private theatricals and
that sort ot thing, for such roturns
were genuinely meager; and he kept
no books to exploit the profits he
made through the vast quantity of
stolen goods that passed through his
hands.
Papa Ooyette was clever. As a
costumier he knew his business, and
was highly spoken of In that respect.
It be eked out a bare living thereby,
he was cheerfully optlmlstlo and
did not complaint
THE! transformation bad taken
place in the ultra-strict privacy ol
one of Papa Goyetto's ingeniously
contrived back rooms. It had bees
eminently successful. At Its conclu
"masterpiece"
slon Papa Ooyette had rubbed hit
bands with delight.
"There!" he had exclaimed. "It It
my masterpiece. Lookl You do not
know yourBoltl Nol But do not for
get one little thing. It will not last
all by ltaelf. The hairs sprout. And
from undornenth tbe skin they come
up with the old color. Very well, I
will tell you of a friend ot mine In
New York who will take care ot that.
and the other little repairs that will
be necessary.
But be careful of that so-auperb
little mustachel You understand? It
la Incomparable. It Is as good as
though you had had time to grow
one. I, Papa Qoyotte, have nover
made anything before that could ap
proach It. It Is what do you call It?
the singing noto of the whole faco.
"It Is not pleasant? No. But the
cement that holds It changes the
expression ot the Hps! You see? It Is
art! Yes, I, Papa Goyetto, applaud
myself." .
Colin swore softly under his
breath. Damn the mustache! It had
been the source of endless discom
fort at first, but he was becoming
used to It now.
From his chair Colin glanced
again across the room at the mir
ror and Clarkle Lunn flashed him
back a twisted grin. Ills own mothor.
had she been alive, as the trite ex
pression had It, would not have rec
ognised him.
He nodded thoughtfully to himself.
Papa Ooyette, with the subsequent
assistance ot Papa Ooyette's "friend"
here in New York, had performed
little short ot a miracle. But he owed
Papa Ooyette far more than that
Papa Ooyette had not only created
Clarkle Lunn, but Papa Ooyette had
oriented Clarkle Lunn in New York.
It would have beon unwise, to say
the least ot It, tor Clarkle Lunn, s
newcomer, to throw In his lot openlj
with Butch Connal's gang. Colin and
Butch had talked that ovor from
every anglo. Keddy had beon a mem
ber ot Hutch Connal's gang.
