For most of the day I drove, and she sat by my side, and before we got back that night I think I had told her all that ever I did. It was a dull enough record, but have it she would, "because," said she, "for two years you played the part which I should have played you cared for my poor father, and I cannot know enough of the man who did that" -We held the first of our councils the following day by the side of the stream in the meadows, before U o'clock. I said what I had to say first by Elizabeth's wish. "To my way of thinking we've only one object in view, and that is to expose the man who for 22 years has passed as the Count of Brief. If we can bring this about, we shall kill two birds with one stone we shall not only bring him down but put Elizabeth up in her proper place. "The only way to expose him Is to make him expose himself admit officially that what we allege is true. And that he will never do, unless we can force his hand. If we can hold above him some threat sufficiently grim, the man will do as we wish. "What we need is some information informa-tion from which we can forge a weapon which we can use. And that will be hard to come by. It might not have been so hard 20 years ago; but the sources we might have turned to have . almost certainly failed. Still, we're not in the hopeless hope-less position of not knowing where to begin, because we have one clew, which, if we can follow it up, may lead us straight to a source which is still alive. "It is, I think, a promising clew, because it concerns a secret of whose existence the Head of the House should know. And Elizabeth knows of its existence: but her uncle un-cle does not . . . She knows of its existence, I say: she does not yet know what it is: but she knows where it is roughly. "The great tower of Brief the great tower. There is a doorway there which no one would ever find. You must go up, counting your steps. And when you have . . . "One thing more. Elizabeth may not like the line I suggest. The secret, se-cret, whatever it is, has been most jealously guarded for hundreds of years. It may be something that no outsider should know. And if she's the slightest feeling against our doing our utmost to find it out-well, out-well, she knows that she's only to say so for me to drop this line and never touch it again." "My dear," said Elizabeth, quietly, quiet-ly, "my father tried to give it to you. It may be that you can use it those were his words. Do you think I would revoke his bequest? Why, he never even charged you to tell me . . . Never mind. Of course you're right That doorway's our only chance. I've no idea what is behind tt no more than you. But I think it may lead to something tvhlch, as you put it, will give us the weapon we need. As for looking for the doorway we'll have to be careful, of course, but that shouldn't be very hard. As a rule Brief sleeps very sound, and if I like to return when Brief is asleep . . ." She held up a Yale key. "That's my key. It will let us into the turret tur-ret which leads to my rooms. My rooms give to a landing, and the landing will lead to the tower. And nobody lives there now. The rooms are just as they were when my grandfather died: but they are not occupied. It's rather a pity, really: except for the stairs between, they make a delightful suite." "What does it consist of?" said Herrick. "I never saw it, you know." "Two sitting-rooms, bedroom and bathroom. Why do you ask?" "I was wondering if they'd suit said Herrick. "Just for 48 hours, you know. I mean, this search will take time. And it would be so very convenient to be on the spot" I stared at him open-mouthed, but Elizabeth threw up her head and began to laugh. "You're true to type," she said. "The jester's counsel was nearly always the best. And why shouldn't Brenda come, too? She can look after aft-er us all and wait upon me." Though the tower was unoccupied, .nnrimpnts were aired and dust- lis ed twice in the week. Every Mon day and Thursday tnese uungs wet. done, and since the day was Sunday, we determined to take possession the following night In this way for 52 hours we should have the tower to ourselves. That Sunday afternoon Brenda and Winter were told the most of the truth, for, though I am sure that both would have trusted us blindly and would have done without question ques-tion whatever we asked, it would have been unfair as unwise to mate such demands upon such fidelity. "You see," I said to Winter, "we couldn't attempt such a show, un- WNUSaxrioa less there was someone outside not only who knew where we were but a,, We cou,d keeP to "co-All "co-All Tuesday and Wednesday I want you to watch the castle-especially of course, the great tower. I shall signal to you, if I want you. and what I want you to do. We'll arrange ar-range a code later on." Our slight preparations were made the following day. We bought some torches and kanpsacks, and food for two days was put up. Madame Ma-dame Revoke was told that we were going to stay at some hunting-lodge, hunting-lodge, to which her guests of the summer had two or three times repaired, re-paired, and though she was something some-thing surprised that we should travel trav-el by night, instead of by day. Lady Elizabeth Virgil could do no wrong in her eyes. For the search itself, I could not think what to take. I could hardly believe that we should have to use force: yet things which have lain undisturbed for a number of years are apt to get stiff or clogged as the case may be. In the end, after much reflection, I decided on a mallet mal-let and chisel, some oil and two measuring-rules; if what we found were to show that this rather meager mea-ger equipment was not enough, we should have to withdraw and return re-turn with the stuff we required. That afternoon we rested, to save our energy for the work to come. And at half past eleven that night Winter set us down at the mouth of the entrance-drive. He was not to return to Raven, but to berth the Rolls where he could in the country beyond the foot-hills which rose to the south of Brief: and then at dawn he would make his way over those foothills and down to the belvedere. Half an hour later we saw the castle before us, a shadowy mass without form, charged on the sable field of the woods behind. So dark was the night that had there been sentries posted about the house, they could not have seen us moving five paces away, and since Elizabeth said that no watch was kept, we followed her boldly up to the foot of the pile. Because we were shod with rubber, we made but the slightest sound. Elizabeth skirted the walls, and we passed three staircase-turrets, to come to a fourth. And there she stopped, before a door or postern set in its base. I, who was next behind her, moved to her side. "I want you to pass me," she breathed, "as soon as I've opened the door. Turn to your right up the steps, and wait till I come. I'll shut the door whe,n you're in." I passed the word to Brenda, who gave it to Herrick in turn. Then Elizabeth used her key but the door stayed shut In desperation she set her weight to the oak. Then she took her key from the latch. "My God," she said, "it's bolted. What shall we do?" "Somewhere close by,"' I whis pered. "Where we can talk." She led us away from the turret and presently down some steps. "Listen," I said. "There must be windows left open a night like this. Isn't there one I can climb to?" Elizabeth shook her head. "You'd break your neck," she said. "And if you could get in some where, you'd never find your way down to open to us." "Then, what of the tower itself? Isn't there any way I can get into that? Once inside the tower, I couldn't go wrong and its door's in the courtyard, isn't it?" Elizabeth shrugged her shoulders, "but it's heavily barred. It's on the northern side not very high up. It's a chance in a million, but one of those bars might be loose." Elizabeth led us back to the castle walL There she turned to the left, and we followed her as we had come. Then she turned to the right and we passed the mouth of the archway which led to the small courtyard: and after a little she turned to the right again . . . Some 13 feet up I made out what looked like a cage, sticking out of the walL Straining my eyes, I counted four vertical bars, not flush with the wall, but projecting, which meant of course, that the casement which they were guarding was made to open outwards into the air. "Hopeless," said Elizabeth, quietly. quiet-ly. "I thought it was lower than that" "I think I can make it," I said. "From Herrick's houlders, of course. And if there's nothing doing, do-ing, I've only to drop." I took off my knapsack and jacket and rolled up my sleeves. "Can I use a torch with safety, to look at the bars?" Elizabeth nodded. "But do be careful," she said. Herrick spoke out of the darkness. "I'm prepared to contribute," he said. "Be sure of that But I'm no acrobat I'm willing to try and carry your 15 stone, but as soon as you feel me going, you'd better jump. And how d'you propose to begin? Are you going to run up me, or something?" I made him take off his knapsack and stand to the wall, and I begged him to hold his peace, because if he made me laugh, we might both come down. Then I turned again to my lady. "Once I'm up there," I said, "we shan't be able to talk: yet there may be something I find that I want to say: in that case I'll drop my handkerchief. If I do that, will you climb on to Herrick's shoulders? And I'll lean down and tell you whatever it is." "Yes, indeed. But, Richard, you will be careful? Supposing those bars aren't sound." "I promise to test them," I said, "before I go up." A moment later I was standing on Herrick's shoulders, with my chisel and a torch in my pockets and both my hands on the bars. These were in good condition, and when I had tried them once, I drew myself up by inches until I bad a foot in the cage ... Within this, the window was open. If I could displace but one bar, the trick would be done. As I have said, the cage was made of four bars. All four were sunk in the stone above and below the window win-dow they were to protect: but the outer two were also tied by crossbars cross-bars to the window's jambs. It was, of course, hopeless to try to move either of these, for each was held at six points: but the two middle bars were held at two points only, where top and bottom were bedded into the stone. (TO BE COSTISl'ED) Trespasser Steals 100-Foot Chimney and Disposes of His "Haul" for $150 In an ironical fling at French justice jus-tice under "Napoleon le Petit" Victor Vic-tor Hugo once declared that if he were ever accused of stealing Notre Dame he would get out of the country. coun-try. From Channing Town, in Essex, Es-sex, England, Arthur Joseph Sayers, twenty-five, recently stole a chimney chim-ney 100 feet high, writes a correspondent corre-spondent in -the New York Times, and confessed the fact at the petty session of Romford when charged with grand larceny by the owner of the chimney, Maj. Champion Bran-fill Bran-fill Bewilderment in the petty session subsided after Sayers told how he i i .na1 tn parrv off such a tall brick structure with an average diameter of eignt reel, me wmue weighing over 30 tons. He pulled the chimney apart brick by brick. They made three loaas ana ne , , xi n tnr ln tn a man who SOlu Uieui an u had him Independently arraigned for obtaining money under false pretenses. pre-tenses. For each offense Sayers got three months sentences to run con currently. A few moments before, the detective detec-tive inspector of Scotland Yard, who had been ordered to hunt down the chimney and capture its purloiner, bad testified that the chimney stood in the middle of a brick yard, the property of the major. The yard had not been worked for some years, and the theft of the chimney was not discovered until, as there appeared to be a good chance to sell it the major, who lived in Northumberland, instructed a firm of London solicitors to make an inventory in-ventory of the appurtenances. Defendant told of visiting the brickfields on several occasions and taking iron away. No one seemed to take anv notice of mm, and he finally decided to pull down the chimney, which he pleaded was in such a terrible condition that if he had not taken it down it would have fallen down. Tallinn Steeped in Legend Tnekpd awav in a corner of the Baltic sea's coastline, lies the land of Estonia once the western out-nost out-nost of Russian Czarist domination. Tallinn, the capital and largest city. is steeped in legend and history. On the pages of northland history, Tallinn Tal-linn has played a prominent part Founded by King Valdemar II of the Danes, Tallinn then known as Reval grew into prominence as a trade center, due to its geographical geograph-ical location. Here-as in Visby on the Isle of Gotland members of the powerful Hanseatic league met to trade and barter products of the East and West Through the centuries, cen-turies, this area became the "foot-ball" "foot-ball" of the Baltic with Sweden.
