Chapter Three
Death Of A Frightened Girl
THE trail had literally run out
in sand drift when we pulled up
before a high iron gateway through
which showed a small graveled
court bordered with oleanders and
backed by a low pink house smoth
ered in wisteria. The gates were
promptly opened to us by Pe
nelope, a small, Irate, elderly
woman in black, who remarked
sourly: "Mademoiselle is late."
She offered a small square of
cardboard to Hugo. "The gentle
man waited for half an hour, but
could stay no longer."'
"O'Donnell?" said he. "Now, by
all that's holy, what's, he doing in
these parts? Last time I saw him
was six months aeo in Nev.- York
I asked him then to look me up
if he was ever on this side, and he
said there wasn t a chance of it.
"What's his job?" I asked, and
Huko hesitated.
"Officially he sells bonds for a
She came along the
living, but actually he's a private
detective, though I only found it
out by chance. He's a dashed good
fellow and I wish I hadn't missed
him. I wonder where he's atay
ing?" "One has written on the other
side," suggested Penelope, her
small beady eyes betraying a
flicker of excitement, and he
turned the card over, whistling as
he scanned the penciled words on
Its reverse. "Here's mysteryl" said
he. "Now, what d'you make of
this? "Meet me tonight, Palm
Beach, without fall. Desperately
urgent. Counting on you. O'D.' "
"You'll go, I suppose?" I asked.
. Hugo nodded. "We'll all go."
Ada sniffed. "You can count mt
out," said she. "And it you take
my advice, you'll stay at home, too,
and have a quiet game of bridge
If the man's a detective it'll only
turn to pistols and murders and
hidden ciphers. You ought to know
that, Hugo."
Shr looked from one to the other
of us, but finding no response in
our expression, shrugged resign
edly and stumped into the house.
That night, as we packed our
selves into the black Hispano,
Hugo cool and Immaculate in hit
shantung dinner-suit, I thought
again what handsome devil he
was, with his dark, Spaniard's
face more striking than ever above
the white of his coat. But he was
undoubtedly putting on weight
When I told him so, he snorted.
"It's muscle, my young friend,
and anyway, a great hulking brute
like yourself has no call to cast
nasturtiums. Seriously, Archie,
why go back to Antioes? It's a
damn silly Idea of yours to push off
again so quickly. Tell this fellow
Lubbock to take his ketch on to
San Remo by himself."
"I'd like to," I said regretfully,
"but I promised Mark to put in a
fortnight with him. I don't see how
I can well get out of It."
He snorted again. Think It

Mannequin Show
"pHE great revolving doora spun

wine list a gong sounded sharply,
the lights lowered, and the silver
curtains on the stage billowed In
a sudden wind.
"Hell's bells!" said Hugo.
"D'you know what we've let our
selves in for? It's no cabaret. It's
a mannequin show." And he read
out from the program: " 'Mme
Lili Stefan will present her col
lection of early autumn models.'"
"Too bad," I agreed sympa

had thought, of good family and

money.

holding a card with the number
one and the name "Autumn Leaf"
and a tall, dark girl undulated for
ward, dressed In fur-trimmed
garment of chestnut velvet.
At the tame time I taw tome
thing else. Across the dance floor,
behind the tables on the other tide,
a man was standing. The light was
too dim to distinguish hit face, but
I taw vaguely that he waa thort,
sandy-haired, and wore a white
mess-jacket. As I looked, he raised
hit hand sharply, trying, I thought,
to attract the attention of someone
on our side of the room. I was puz
zled, for I didn't know him from
Adam, and then It struck me that
he might be tome acquaintance of

changed thit time to the cold blue
of moonlight on Ice and a girl
ttepped out on the platform,
sheathed In a glittering, iridescent
dress that teemed made of Icicles.
Its wearer was the girl of the Carl
ton Bar.
She came out along the run
way towards us, her face set
In the immobile mask of the man
nequin, her supple body swaying
as she walked. The glittering folds
of her dress swirled about her feet
In that sinister, unearthly light her
face shone with a ghostly phos
phorescence; her dark, haunted
eyes were fixed and glassy.
She halted at the outer end of
the runway, smiled the frozen,
mechanical smile of her calling,
and turned about, and at the
turned, suddenly I taw the dark
eyes flash to life In terror, the
hands clutch at her breast at once

And then, softly from Just behind
me, there came t little sound,
gentle plop, and 'he girl on the
runway jerked convulsively,
reared up, and fell head-first like
a shooting arrow, crashing on the
ground at my feet.
With one forward leap I was on

crumpled on her face, one arm
doubled under her, the other flung
wide, and I turned her gently bn
her back. Her wide eyet ttared up

I looked, she gave a little gasp,

AT THE same Instant I felt a .

me, and became conscious that aU

"What Is It?" he asked hoarsely.
"I don't know," I answered stu
pidly. "She fell right at my feet."
A woman behind us screamed:
"She's deadl She's murderedl"
That horrid cry steadied him.
"Mesdomes, messieurs!" he shout
ed. "It U nothing. She has faint
ed." But he was too late, for in
that instant's hesitation pande
monium had broken out.
I scrambled to my feet and
found Hugo beside me. "She's .
dead?" he asked abruptly, his fact
gray beneath the suntan.
1 don't know," I said again, but
his words had brought me to my
senses. "Something must be done
there's bound to be a doctor
here."
I swung round on the maltr
d'hdtel. "A doctor, man!" I said
urgently, but he only gaped at me,
wringing his hands, and in a flash
I had scrambled on a chair. "A
doctor, quicklyl" I yelled.
I looked despairingly out acros
the sea of upturned, staring faces.
Every soul in the room, waiters
and guests alike, seemed to have
gathered in a solid mass round the
spot where the girl lay. But as I
looked i saw a man t ngure, medium-sized,
stocky, and dark- -haired,
detach itself from the
throng and shoot up the three)
ttepa to the dalt that led to the
entrance. A second later another
figure, smaller, red-haired, and
wearing like the first i whit
mess-jacket, sped after him.
I hesitated, uncertain whether
they were waiters or guests, but
hopins they were gone to fetch
help, and as I paused, a hand waa
raised from the center of tha
seething crowd. I climbed down
from my chair just as a sudden
convulsion in the throng round
the girl's body disgorged a small,
stout man In sober black. Ha
dropped on one knee beside the
still shape. Then, very slowly, ha
straightened himself, and with
kind of tick horror I saw him take
out his handkerchief and spread It
over the face.

The other wrung hit hands.
"The scandal!" he moaned, and
then sank to silence-at a third man
pushed through the crowd.
"The manager," said Hugo.
In one stride he was beside the
orchestra and had snatched up the
leader's megaphone. "Messieurs,
mesdamesl" he called. "I regret to
say there has been an accident,

The little doctor murmured ap
