Th Place ot' the Sleeping k Monk; two establishments with excellent music and excellent cuisine, really were Luis Barros favorite hangouts hang-outs when he was in Juarez, But, he appeared to have business but ot town a great deal of the tinie. Betty liked The Place of ; the Sleeping Monk 1 better. It- was quieter, than the '''.first' spot. It did not have a big gambling rtibm adjoining. ad-joining. It seemed to enjoy a better bet-ter class of customers from among Jhe many tourists who came across from Tl PasoC A detail too. was the fact that Luis Barro had ordered the proprietor pro-prietor and employes there to 'show Scnorlt4 Jordan every pos-" pos-" sible courtesy whenever she comes in" Sheldlscovered that his order meanfshe could never pay her check, nor indeed pay for anything, any-thing, despite the meticulous serv- , i ice they gave her. In a way she, didfit like this, but in her capacity of detective she knew it was a valJ uablelead.- By sketching there often, and - eating there at least once a day, she struck up a nominal friendship friend-ship with the manager who sat in the cashier's booth. The fifth day of her stay in Mexico, she picked a' moment ' inr mid-morning when the place was almost empty and '..when Luis Barro had not been around for more than a day, then opened her purse in the cashier- manager's presence. "Oh, dear, I must have left my ; compact in the hotel," she lamented. lament-ed. ,.- , A S a woman would, she dished out all manner of purse fcrin-' kets. .'Lipstick. Handkerchief. Pencils. Coin purse. Note pad. . Tiny scissors. Nail file. A snapshot, snap-shot, of her father. Mirror. And , a .22 caliber rifle cartridge. She called his attention to the cartridge silently with her eye3. , Instantly the man turned to his j cash register and pressed a button. ' tag-clang!" the j machine sounded, and a "No Sale" sign popped up. From a drawer he calmly took a .22 cartridge of his own, fingered it a moment for her " to see, dropped it back and closed the drawer. Betty Mary felt her pulse quicken.

"I know where perhaps a cargo worth a hundred thousand can be had. Cheap." "A hundrecHhousandpesos? For how much?" "No, dollars. American dollars. For a tenth of that. Can can Don Luis send it safely across? Do you think I should tell him where he might contact this cargo?! do not wish . to uh, interfere too much in his plans and affairs.
