He was killed elsewhere and placed In this I doubt if he was bed afterwards. even undressed at the time of his death. Miss Potter, who had remained silent although obviously very nervous, asked if she might go to her room and leave the doctor In charge. This delegating of her authority to the doctor did not appeal to Roche; and he told had ber that, if her brother-in-labeen murdered.

The gun was bought soon after the burglary, but, so far as I know, he has never used It, Although her statement that the revolver had belonged to the dead man made the suicide theory plausible, yet I could not quite see how the facts that Bartley bad brought forward to disprove the suicide could be overthrown.

Oiatweat 25 aad 50c, TaltasiSfc naturally ask where Is the other stockThen, too, there are no blood stains anywhere In this room. Though his wound did not bleed much. It must have bled some. These are the reasons why I say he was not killed in this room, or even undressed here. His explanation seemed reasonable mystifying. enough, yet somewhat Why had the murderer taken all this trouble to undress Slyke, and why had he done it in some other room? The next question was just as puzzling. If Slyke had not been killed in this room, where had the crime taken placef As If he had read my thoughts, Roche suggested that as there was another room In the tower, we might see what could be found there. The butler, who entered at this moment, did his best not to glance at the bed. He was holding with great Airedale that difficulty a growled fiercely when he saw us. The butler motioned to the doctor to come to him. As he reached his side. Doctor King placed his hand upon the dogs head nnd it ceased to show Its teeth and licked his fingers. For several moments he ahd the butler held a low conversation, then King turned to us to say that he had just been called to the hospital for an operation and would have to leave at once. Bartley scribbled something on a piece of paper, and handing it to the doctor said, I think there ought to be a picture taken of the body so ' it can be used at the Inquest." The doctor agreed and went out, accompanied by the butler. As the door closed behind them Bartley went to lock It, but the key was missing. After a moment's hesitation lie decided It would do no harm to leave It unlocked while we were gone, and we all started for the floor above. The room we entered was of the same size as the one In which we had found Slyke. Here,' too, there was little furniture three chairs grouped around a little table in the center of the room, a lounge in one corner, a small desk In another. It was the table that attracted Bartleys attend On It stood a tion. bottle of Scotch whisky, and beside the bottle three glasses, one of them holding about a spoonful of llqnor. Near one of the glasses was a cigarette and a magazine, and on the opposite side of the table the stub of a cigar. Bartley looked at both of them vv 1th keen Interest and hern in. an envelope. finally placed The cigarette must haVe been a very one, for the end was of the finest straw. The appearance of tile table suggested that three men had been present and that two of them had been smoking. A conference. perbaps, at which a bottle of whisky bad assisted. Aside from tire table, there seethed to be nothing of interest in the room. While Bartley was still glancing at the table, I walked over to the large window and draw aside the heavy curtain that readied to the floor. At my feet was a playing card that had been concealed by its folds. Glancing uround to see If there were any others nnd finding none," T brought the card to Bartley. As I stepped to his side, I saw that he was examining the magazine. Like many magazines, the back curried a gaudy advertisement that covered the entire page. This one had an unusual amount of unused white space. Bartley pointed silently to where someone had idly amused himself by drawing cn It with a pencil, a habit many people have. The design was simple, only a mass of scrolls, with a little g figure here and there, and lines through them.

It looks to me as if they might have been placed where we found them by design. As if someone wished us to think just what you thought. Then there Is that bottle of whisky and the three glasses. All three glasses have been drunk from. The glasses show that they were all used at about the same the men time. Evidently two'-o-f smoked; the third did not. What I wonder Is. were these three persona in the room at one and the 6ame time?" Roche, who had long since lost his now offered to air of help us make a thorough examination of the room. When we had ended our unsuccessful search, Bartley stood silent, a puzzled expression on his face. It's more 'mysterious than ever, 1 am sure he was he said at last. not killed in the room below. I am also sure he was not killed here. There must be blood spots somewhere, yet where? There are none In this room. He went to the window and glanced out, then came back and glanced np at the steps that led to the roof. All at once his face brightened, and motioning us to follow him he bounded up the seven steps to the little door that opened onto the balcony. We followed more slowly. We found ourselves on a baleny some four feet wide that ran around the tower. About eight or ten feet top, an Iron tyelow Its bronze-tipperailing protected the edge of the balcony and was covered with Ivy, as were also the sides of the tower Itself, Bartley paused for a moment, standing with his hand on the rail, his face serious, his eyes thoughtful. But it was for a moment only; the next he was out of sight around the tower. Almost instantly we heard him call us, and when we reached nls side he was on his knees examining I he floor and the lower part of the whII. Looking where lie pointed, I saw at his feet a dark splotch on the floor of the balcony.and a little higher up several similar 'spots on the wall of the tower. I realized that, at last, ne had found what he had been looking for. There was no doubt that the splotches we saw were blood, and that It bad been ahed within a few hours. Had he expected to find them Just where he did? I wondered. Jbr Setnemieal Tr.o.erfofieo In 1922 Chevrolet jumped from, seventh to second place in sales of all cars, and to first place in sales of fully equipped modem cars. Purchases by farmers were the chief factor in this remarkable development. Farmers want automobiles not only of low first price, but also of low later cost for operation and maintenance. They want room, comfort, and the ability to stand up under hard conditions. is They find that Chevrolet, fully equipped as sold, the best value per dollar in the lowpriced field, and neighbors tell them it costs less per mile to operate.

There, lying under the bottom step, was a second playing card with the same design on the back as the one I had found. What were they doing In that room? Bartley smiled to himself as he examined the second card. Roche asked, "What do they mean? With a gesture that might have meant anything, It was so expressive, They had a card Bartley replied, ' party downstairs last nlghL Roche wus excited In a moment "I'll tell you whut it means.
