If he had found any clew to the mystery In Lizzie's demeanor, she could not read It In his manner. "Now, what about the butlerr he aid. "Nothing about him except that he was Courtlelgb Fleming's servant" Anderson paused. "Do you consider con-sider that slgnlflcantr A shadow appeared behind him deep in the alcove a vague, listening .figure Dale, on tiptoe, conspiratorial, taking pains not to draw the attention of the others to ber. presence. -But both Miss Cornells and Anderson were too engrossed In their conversation to notice her. Ulss Cornelia hesitated. "Isnt It possible that there Is a connection between the colossal theft at the Union bank and these disturbances dis-turbances r she said. Anderson seemed to think over the question. "What do you meanr he asked, ss Dale slowly moved Into the room from the alcove, silently closing the alcove doors behind her, and still unobserved. "Suppose," "said Miss Cornelia slowly, slow-ly, "that Courtlelgh Fleming took that money from his own bank and concealed con-cealed it In this housed - The eavesdropper eaves-dropper grew rigid. "That's the theory you gave headquarters, head-quarters, Isn't ltr said Anderson. "But Hi tell you bow headquarters figures It out. In the first place, the cashier Is missing. In the second place. If Courtlelgh Fleming did It and got u far as Colorado, be had It with hint when be died, and the facts apparently dont bear that out In the third place, suppose he had hidden the money la or around tola house. Why did he rent It to your "But he didn't" said Miss Cornelia, obstinately, 1 leased this house from hie nephew hla heir." The detectlTe smiled tolerantly. Well, I wouldn't struggle like that "for theory." he said, the professional profes-sional note coming back to ht-olce. "The cashier's missing that's the answer" an-swer" Z" ."Then you dont think" there's s chance that the money from the Union bank ts In this housel" persisted Miss Cornelia. "I think It very unlikely.' Miss Cornelia put her knitting sway and rose. She still clung tenaciously to ber own theories but ber belief In them bad been badly shaken. Tf you'll come with me, HI show you to your room," she sald.e little stiffly. The detective stepped back to let her.-pasa. "Sorry to spoil your little theory," be said, and followed her to the door. If eltl!?r had noticed the, unobtrusive listener to their conversation, neither made a sign. The moment the door had closed on there, Dale sprang Into action. She seemed a different girl from the one who had left the room so Inconspicuously Incon-spicuously such a short time before there were two bright spots of color In her cheeks and she was obviously laboring under great excitement She went quickly to the alcove doors they opened softly disclosing the young man who had said that he was Brooks the new gardener and yet not the same young man for bis as-turned as-turned air of servitude bad dropped from him like a clonk, revenllng htro us a young fellow at lensl of the same general social class as Dale's If not a fellow-Inhabitant of the select se-lect circle where Van Oorders re-rolved- about -JTan Gordera, and a ID.'J . grest-grandfather .was .aore TrnrnTtafil ThiTb the nmh hlrnielt. Dale cautioned him with- warning finger-as he advanced' Into thFrMiiit, "Shi Shi" she" whlsjH'red. "lie careful I -Tbut uwo's a detective I Brook gave a hunted glance at the door Into the hull. Then they've traced me here," be said In a dejected voice. "I don't think so." He made a gesture of helptesfmpss. "I couldn't get buck to my rooms," he said In a whisper. "If they've seurelieti them," he paused, "ns they're sure to they'll find your lettAa to me." He paused njinlo.. , - - 1 "Tour aunt doesn't suspect anything?" any-thing?" "So, 1 told her I'd engaged a gardener gar-dener and that's all there was about it." He came nearer to ner. "Dalel" he murmured In a tense voice. "You know I didn't take thnt moueyl" he sold, with hoytsh simplicity. All the loyalty of Urst-love wns tn "Of coursol I believe In you ahso-lutelyl" ahso-lutelyl" she said. He caught her tn bis arms and kissed her gratefully passionately. Then the gulling tnera-.ory tnera-.ory of the predicament .In which be stood the hunt already on his trull came hack to him He released her gently, still holding one of her hands. "liut the police' here!" he 'stammered, 'stam-mered, turning awny. "What does that mean?" Dale swiftly Informed him of the situation. "Aunt- Cornelia - says people-have been trying to break into this house for days at night." Brooks ran his hand through his hair In a gesture of bewilderment Then he seemed to catch at a hope. "What sort of peopled' he queried sharply. Dale wns puzzled. "She doesn't know." The excitement In her lover's manner man-ner came to a head. "That proves exactly what I've contended right along," be said, thudding one fist softly soft-ly In the palm of the other. "Through some underneath channel old Fleming Flem-ing has been selling those securities for months, turning, them Into cash. And somebody knows about It nnd knows that tharmoney is hidden here. Don't yon see? Tour Aunt. Cornelia has crabbed the game by coming here." "Why didn't you ten the police that? Now they think, because you ran away" "Kan away I The only chance 1 had was s few hours to myself to try to prove what actually happened." "Why don't you tell the detective what you thfnkT" said Dale at ber wits' end. "That Courtlelgh Fleming took the money and that It Is still herer - - - -- Her lover's face grew somber. "He'd take me Into custody at once and rd have no chance to search." He was searching now his eyes roved about the tlving-room walls-celling walls-celling hopefully desperately looking look-ing for a dew the tiniest dew to support his theory. "Why are you so sure It Is herer queried Dale. "Brooks explained, "Ton must re member Fleming was no ordinary defaulter and he had no Intention of being exiled to a foreign country. He wanted to come back here and take his place In the community while I j7as..ln.,the pen." . . , "But even then " He Interrupted her. "Listen, dear He crossed to the billiard room door, dosed It firmly, returned. The architect that built this house was an old friend of mine," he said In hushed accents. ""We were together togeth-er tn France and you know the way fellows get to talking when they're far away and cut oft" He paused, seeing the cruel gleam of a star-shell two figures huddled in a trench, whlling sway the terrible boars of waiting by muttered talk. "Just an hour er two before a shell got this friend of mine," he relumed. re-lumed. ""b ld m he ha built a hidden room to this house.". "Where gasped Dale. Brooke enookJMi head. "I ion't "know. We never gctto r'ffflsfi"t&at conversation. But I remember what he said. He said. Ton watch old Fleming. - if I get mine orer here It won't break his heart He didn't want any living , being to know about that room.'" ' Now Dale was as excited as be. "Then you think the money is In this hidden -room r - "I do". said Brooks deddedly. "1 don't think Fleming took It away with him. Ue was too shrewd for that No, be meant to come back all right the minute he got fhe word the bank had been looted. And he'd fixed things so I'd be railroaded to prison you wouldn't understand, but It was pretty neat. And thin the fool nephew rents this house the minute he's dead, and whoever knows bout the money" "Jack I Wby isn't It the nephew who Is trying to break Inr "He wouldn't hnve to break In. He could make an excuse ond come In nny time." He clenched hi handi despairingly. "If I could only get hold of a blueprint blue-print of this place I" he muttered. Dale's futu fell. It was sickening to be so close to the secret and yet not And "Oh. Jack. I'm so confused con-fused and worried I" she confessed, with a little isob. brooks put his hands on her shoulders, shoul-ders, In nn effort to cheer ber spirits.
