All eyes were fixed upon Quest, who listened to the Inspector's dubious words with a supercilious emile upon his Ups. "Perhaps," he suggested, "you would like to ask me a few questions?" "Perhaps I may feel lt my duty to do so," the inspector-replied gravely. "In the first place, then. Mr. Quest, will you kindly explain the condition f your clothes?" Quest shrugged hts shoulders. "Here" you are, then," he replied. "This morning I decided to make an attempt to clear up the mystery of Macdougal's disappearance. I sent on my secretary. Miss Laura, to make friends with the section boss, and Lenora and I went out by automobile a little later. We instituted a search on a new principle, and before very long wo .found Macdougal's body. That's one up against you, I think, in* epector." "Very likely," the inspector ob aerved. "Go on, please." "I left the two young ladles, at Mu? Lenora's wish, to superintend the re moval of the body. I myself had an 'engagement to deliver over her jew ela to Mrs. Rheinholdt here at mid day*. I returned to where my automo bile was waiting, started for the city and was attacked by two thuga near1 the section house. I got away from them, ran to the tower house to try 1 and stop the freight, waa followed by the thugs, and jumped out on to the last car from the signal arm." "Where 1B your automobile?" "No Idea," Quest replied. "I left lt tn the road. When ' .ped from the freight car I took a ..'.cab to the pro fessor's and caliea for him, aa ar ranged." The inspector nodded. "I shall have to ask you to excuse me for a moment," he said, "while I ring up number ten signal tower. If Mr. Quest's story receives corrobora? tlon the matter ia at an end." The inspector left the room almost immediately. When he returned he was looking graver than ever. "Quest," he announced, "your alibi la useless-In fact, a little worse than | uaelesB. The operator at number ten i has been found murdered at the back ot the tower!" Quest started. "I ought not to have left him to those thugs," he murmured regret fully. "There ls no automobile of yours in the vicinity," the Inspector continued^ "nor any newa of lt I think lt will be as well now. Quest, for thia matter to take ita obvious cours?. Will yon. first of all, hand over her jewels to Mri. Rheinholdt?" Quest drew the keya of the safe from his pocket, crossed the room and ?rung-open the safe door. For a mo ment afterwards he stood transfixed. Iiis arm, half outstretched, remained motionless. Then ho turned slowly around. "The jewels have been stolen," ho announced with unnatural calm. The Inspector laid hia hand heavily Upon Quest's shoulder. "Ton will kindly consider yourself under arrest. Quest. Ladles and gen* Gemen, will yon clear the room now, If yon please. The ambulance I tele phoned for la outside," . The professor, who had been look ing aa though dazed? suddenly Inter vened. Kr. French." he aatd earnestly, 1 am convinced that you are making a great mistake. In arresting and tak ing away Mr. Queat yon are removing from us the one man who la likely lo be able to clear op thia mystery." The Inspector puabed him gently to one side. "Ton will excuse me, professor," he said, "bot tn i ia no matter tor argu ment. If M r Quest can dear himself, no one will be more glad than 1." Quest shrugged his shoulders. ..The Inspector will have Ma little joke," he observed dryly, "lt'a all right, girl*, Keep cool," he went oe, aa he saw tho tears in Lenora's eyes. J LUI fi?

The ambulance men came and de ported with their glim burden, the room on the ground floor was locked and sealed, and the house waa soon empty except for the two girls. To ward three o'clock Lenora went out and returned with a newspaper. She opened it out upon the table and they both pored over it. " 'Justice Thorpo bas refused to con sider ball!' He's a guy, that Justice Thorpe, and BO'B the idiot who wrote this stuff!" Laura exclaimed, thrust ing tho paper away from her. "I guess the professor was dead right when he told French he was locking up the ono man who could clear up |tbe whole show." Lenora nodded thoughtfully. "The professor spoko up like a .man," she agreed, "but Laura, I want to ask you something. Did you notice ?his servant-that man Craig?" "Can't say I did particularly," Laura admitted. "Twice," Lenora continued, "I thought he was going to faint. I tell you be was scared tbe whole of the time." "What" are you getting at, kid?" 'Laura> demanded. "At Craig, If I can." Lenora replied, moving toward tho telephone. "Please give mo the phototelesme. I am 'going to talk to the professor." Laura adjusted the mirror to the In 'strument and Lenore, rang up. The professor hlmseii answered the call. "Have you seen the ^hree o'clock edition, professor," Lenora asked. "I never read newspapers, young lady." the professor replied. "Let me tell you what they say about Mr. Quest!" Lenora commenced a rambling ac count of what she had read in the newspaper. All the tima the eyes of the two girls were fixed upon the mir ror. They could see the professor seated In his chair with two huge vol ?mes by his side, a pile of manuscript, and a pen In bis hand. They could even catch the look of sympathy on his face as he listened attentively. Sud denly Lenora almost broke off. She gripped Laura by the arm. The door of the study had been opened slowly, and Craig, carrying a bundle, paused for a moment on the threshold. He glanced nervously toward the profes sor, who seemed unaware of his en trance. Then he moved stealthily to ward the fireplace, stooped down and committed something to the flames. The relief on his face, as he stood up, was obvions. "AU I can do for Mr. Quest, young lady, I will," the professor promised. He laid the receiver <Jown and the "Tho Jewels Have Been Stolen 1" . reflection on the mirror faded away. Lenora started np and hastily ont on her coat and hat, which were still ly ing on the chair. "I am going right down to the pro fessor's," she announced. ? "What do yon think yon caa do there?" Laura asked. 1 am gofos to see If I can find ont what that man burned," aka replied. "I will be back In an hour" Laura walked with ker as far as tho i street car, and very soon afterward ! Lenora fonnd herself knocking st the professor's front door. Craig admitted her almost at once. For a moment he seemed to shiver as he recognised her. \ "Well, yonae lady," th?? professor i said, "have you thought of something .I can do?" ! Sae took uo notion of the chair to j which ho pointed, and rested her band upon his shoulder. . "Professor," she begged, "go and see .Mr. Quest! He ts In the Tombs prison. ?ft would keiths kindest thing anyone ; could possibly do." . The professor glanced regriitfu?ly at Skis mahuscrapt, but hs did not best tats. He rose promptly to hts feet "If you think he would appreciate lt, I will go at once." he decided. , Her face shone with gratitude, ; "That ta really kind of yon, profes sor," sh? declared 'M'unit "I wi!! Bend for my coat and wa wffl go together. If you like," he suggested. She smiled. . "I am going the other way, back to 'Georgia aquare," she explained. "No, please don't ring. I can find my own way put,** She hurried from the room. Outside In the hall she paused for a moment, listening with beating heart. By the side wall was a bat rack with branch ing pegs, from which several coats were banging. She slipped quietly be hind their shelter. A moment or two later she heard the professor leave tho house. Very cautiously ahe stole out from her hid ing nlace. The hall was empty. She ero BB ed lt with noiseless footsteps, slipped Into the study and moved stealthily to the fireplace. There was a little heap of ashes In one distinct Bpot She gathered them up In her handkerchief and secreted lt in her dress and quietly left the bouae. At Georgia square she found Laura walting for her, and a few minutes af terward the two girls were examining tho ashes with the aid of Quest's mi croscope. Among the little pile was one fragment at the sight of which they both exclaimed. It was distinctly a shred of charred muslin embroidery. .Lenora pointed toward lt triumphant ly. "Isn't that evidence?" she demand-1 ed. "Let's ring up Inspector French!" Laura shook her bond doubtfully. "Not so fast," she advised. "French ls a good sort in his way, but he'a prejudiced just now against the boss. I'm not sure that this evidence would go far by Itself." "It's evldenco enough for us to go to Craig, though! Wh.?.'t we have got to do is to get a confession out of him, somehow!" Laura studied her companion, for a moment, curiously. "Taking some Interest in Mr. Quest, kid, ain't yon?" Lenora looked up. Then her head suddenly sank into, her hands. She knew quite well that her secret had escaped her. Laura patt?d her shoul der. "That's all right, child," she said soothingly.' "We'll ree him through this, somehow or other." "Laura," exclaimed Lenora, "we will eave Mr. Quest and we will get hold of Craig! I have a plan. Listen!" CHAPTER XIII. Craig's surprise was real enough BS he opened the back door of the pro fessor's house on the following morn ing and found Lenora standing on the threshold. Lenora smiled pleasantly. "I came to thia door," ehe said, "be cause I wanted a little talk with you." Craig's attitude was perfect. He was mystified but he remained respectful. "Will you come inside?" he invited. She shook her head. "I am afraid," abe confided, "of what I arm going to any being overheard. Come with me down to the garage for a moment." He opened the doors of the garage, leaving the keys In the lock, and they both passed Inside. "You can say what yon please here without the slightest fear of being overheard, miss," Craig remarked. Lenora nodded, and breathed a prayer to herself. She was nrr.rer the door than Craig by about half a .dozen paces. Her hand groped in tho little bag she was carrying and gripped something hard. She clenched her teeth for a moment. Then the automatic pistol flashed out through the gloom. "Craig," she threatened, "If yon move 1 shall shoot you." ! It seemed as though Gie man were a coward. He began to tremble, hts lips twitched, hie eyea grew larger and rounder. "What ia lt?" he faltered. "What do you want?" "Just this," Lenora aald firmly. "I suspect yoh to be guilty of the crime for which Sanford Quest is in prison. I am going to have you questioned. If you are innocent you have nothing to fear.- If you are guilty there will he someone here before long who wUl extract the troth from you." Tho man's face waa an epitome of terror..- Even his knees shook. Lenora 'felt herself grow calmer with every moment: "I am going outside to aend a mes sage," she told him. "I shall return presently." "Don't go," he begged suddenly. ."Don't leave mel I am Innocent. I. have done nothing wrong. If yon keep me here, you will do more barm than yon can dream of." "It ta for other people to decide about your innocence." Lenora aald calmly. "I have nothing to do with, that. If you are wise you will atop here quietly." "Have yon aald anything to Mr. Ashleigh, .miss?" Ute mau naked pite ously. "Not a word." A expression ot relief shone for a moment upon bia face. Lenora point? ed to a stool. "Sit down there end walt quietly." she ordered. Re obeyed without a word. Sh? left the place, locked the door se curely, and made her way round to the other side of the garage-the sid? hidden from the house. Here, nt the fer corner, she drew a little pocket wireless from her bag and set lt on the window sill. Very slowly abe sent her message: I have Craig hare in the professor's tarco?.; leeksd up. If eur plan ha*, succeeded, come at once. I am walt ina for you. .There waa no reply. She seat the message again and again. Suddenly, during a paufK?. there was a little flash upon tho plato. A message was com lng to her. She transcribed lt with beating heart: O. K. Coming. /....... The guard swung open the wicket In front of Quest's ceil. "Young woman to eco you. Quest," he announced. "Ten minutes, and no loud talking, please." Quest mored t- the bars, lt was Laura who stood there. She wasted .very little time in prellmlnsrics. Hav ing satisfied herself that the guard was out of hearing, she leaned as close as she could to Quest "Look here," she said, "Lenora's crazy with the Idea that Craig has done these Jobs-Craig, the proies* j sor's servant, you know. We used the phototelesme yesterday afternoon end saw bim burn something 'in the pro fessor's study. Lenora went up straight away and got bold of the ashes." "Smart girl," Quest murmured, nod ding approvingly. "Weill ' "There are distinct fragments," Laura continued, "of emin olde; ed stuff euch as the Salvation Anny girl might if a WT m ip * "ti You Move 1 Shall Shoot Youl" have been wearing. We put them on ono side, but they ain't enough evi dence. Lenora's Idea ls that yon should get bold of Craig and hypnotise him into a confession." "That's all right," Quest replied "but how am I to got hold ot htm?" Laura glanced once more carelessly around to where the guard stood. "Lenora's gone up to the professor's again this afternoon. She is going to try and get hold ot Craig and lock him in the garage. If she succeeds, she will send a message by wireless at three o'clock. It ls half-past two now." "Well?' Quest exclaimed. "Well?" "Yon can work this guard, If yon want to," Lenora went on. "I have ?nen you tackle worse cases. He seems dead easy. Then let mo in the cell take my clothes and leave me here. Quest followed the scheme In his mind quickly. "It ls all right." he decided, "but nm not at all eure that they can realty hold me on the evidence they have i got. If thev ?*~n't, I .shall be doing my self more harm than good in this way." "It's no use unless you can get hold of Craig quickly," Laura ssld. "He ls getting the scares, as lt ls." "lil do lt." Quest decided. "Call tho guard, Laura." She obeyed. The man came good naturedly toward them? Quest looked at him steadfastly through the bars. "I want you to come Inside for moment," Quest repeated softly. "Un look the door, please, take the key off your bunch and come inside." . The man hesitated, h Jt all the time his Angers were : fumbling with the keys. Quest'c Hps continued to move. The wsrder opened the door and . en tered. A few minutes later Quest passed the key through the window Laura, who was standing on guard. , Without a word, and with marvelous rapidity, the chango was effected Laura produced from her handbag wig, which she pinned inside her hat and passed over to Quest. Then she flung herself on to the bed and drew the blanket up to her chin. "How long rill he stay like ttatr she whispered, pointing to the warder, who was sitting on the floor with hla arms folded and his eyos c?ored. "Half and hour or so," Quest an swered. "Don't bother about him. shall drop the ker hack through the window." Quest reached Georgia square five minutes to three. A glance u and down assured him that the boase was unwatched. Ho let himself with bis own key. threw Laura's clothes off, and, after a few momenta* hesitation, selected from the ward robe a rough tweed suit-with a thick luting and ispefs. Jnst as be waa tying bis tie, the little wireless which be had laid on the table at his side began to record a messsge. He glanced at the clock, lt was exactly tL-ee. Quest's eyes ibone tor a moment with satisfaction. Then be sent his answering message, put on a d ter and slouch hat, and left the hons? by the side entrance. In a few mo ments lie was in Broadway, and quarter of an hour later a taxicab d< posited bim at tb? entrance to the peorV-eKorV house. TT? walked awffTTy . up thc drive and turned toward the ! garage, hoping every moment to see something of Lenora. The door of the place stood open. He entered and walked around. It was empty. There was no sign of either Craig or Le nora! . . . Quest recovered from his first dis appointment, stole carefully out and made a minute examination of the place. Close to the corner from which Lenora had sent her wireless message to him, he stooped and picked up a handkerchief, which from the marking he recognized at once. A few feet away the gravel was disturbed as though by the trampling of several feet. He set his teeth. "I've got to find that girl," he mut* tered. "Craig can go to h--1!" He turned away and approached the house. Tb \ front door stood open end he mau? hts way at once to the library. The professor, who was sit ting at his desk surrounded by a pile ai books and papers, addressed him, as he entered, without looking up. "Where on earth hawe you been, Craig?" he Inquired petulantly. "I have rung for you s?.t times. Have I not told you never to leave th : pisco with out orders?" . "It ls not Crslg," Quest replied quiet ly. "It is I, professor-Sanford Quest." The professor swung round In his chair and eyed his visitor In blank astonishment. "QueBt?" he exclaimed. '*God bless my soul! Have they let you out al ready, then?" "! came out." Qur.3*. replied grim ly. "Sit tight, and liston to mo for a moment, will you?" "You came out?" tho professor re peated, looking a little dazed. "You mean you escaped?" Quest nodded. "Perhaps I made a mistake," he ad mitted, "but here I sn.. Now listen, professor." And he toll tho story of the last few hours. The professor's faco was almost piti ful In ita blank amazement. His mouth was wide open like a child's, woruB seemed absolutely denied to him. He rose to his feet, obviously a tremendous effort to adjust his ideas. "Craig locked up in my garage?" he murmured. "Craig guilty of thoBe murders? Why, my dear Mr. Quent, a more harmless, a more inoffensive, peace-loving and devoted servant than John Craig never trod this earth!" "Maybe," Quest refiled, "but where is he?" The professor could do nothing but look around him a little vaguely. "I am going back." Quest announced. "My only chance ls the wireless. If Lenora ls alive or at liberty, she will communicate with me." "May I come, too?" the professor asked timidly. "Come by all means," Quest assent ed. "I will drive yon ?own in your car, if you like." , The professor hurried away to get his coat and hat, and a few minutes later they started off. In Broadway they left tho car at a garage and made their way up a back street which enabled them to enter the house at the side entrance. They passed up stairs Into the sitting-room. Quest fetched the pocket wireless and laid lt down on the table. The professor ex amined it with interest "You ar- marvelous, my friend," he declared. "With all these resource of science at your command lt scorns incredible that you should be in the position you are." Quest nodded coolly. "Just one moment, professor, while I send off a message, he ssid, open ing the little instrument "Where are you. Lenora?" he signaled. "Send me word and I will fetch you. I am in my own house for the present Let me know that you are safe." The professor leaned back, smoking one of Quest's excellent cigars He waa beginning to show signs of the liveliest Interest "Quest," he said. "I wish I could in duce you to dismiss this extraordinary supposition of yours concerning my servant Craig. The man has been with me for the best part of twenty years. He. saved my life in South America; wo have traveled in all parta of the world. He has proved himself to he exemplary, a .-lthful and devoted servant.". "Then perhaps you will tell me," Quest suggested, "where he ls now, ano why he has gone away? That does not look like complete innocence, does lt?" The professor sighed. "I cannot atay here much longer, un less I mean to go back to the Tombs," Quest declared. "Surely." the professor suggested "your innocence will very soon be es tabliehedr "There is one thing which will hap pen. without a doubt" Quest replied, "Hy auto and the chauffeur will be di? covered. I have Insisted upon inquir ies being sent ont throughout the ststc of Connecticut. They tell me, too, that the police are hard on the scenl of Red Gallagher and the other man Unless they get wind of thia and sell me purposely, their srrest will be th? end of my troubles. To tell you thc truth, professor," Quest concluded, "ll ls not of myself I sm thinking at all jost now. It la Lenora." The professor nodded sympathet .cally. "The young lady who shot Cx&lg ni In the garage, you mean? A pluck] yoong woman she must be." "She has a great many other goo? qualities besides courage," Quest de dared. "Women have not countet for much with me, professor, np til now, any more than tiley have done, shoit! ! ?Muk, with yon, but I t?i yoi frankly, if anyone has hurt a hair o that girl's head I will bavo their lives whatever tho penalty may be! It la. for her sake-to And her-that I broke i ont ot prison and that I am trying to keep free. Tho wisest thing to do, from my own point of view, would be. -to give myself up. I can't bring my self to do that without kuowlng what has become of her." i The professor nodded again. ' "A charming and well-bred young woman she seems." he admitted. "I fear that I should only be a bungler in your profession, Mr. Quest, but if there is anything I cnn do depend ?upon me. Personally, I am convinced that Craig will return to me with1 nomo plausible explanation as to what has happened." i Quest, for the third or fourth time moved cautiously toward tho window. His expression suddenly changed. He glanced suddenly downward, frowned slightly. "They're after me!" ho exclaimed. "Blt still, professor." He darted into his room and reap peared again almost immediately. Tho professor gave a gasp of astonish ment at his altered appearance. His tweed suit seemed to have been turned Inside out. Tbero were no lapel* now, and it was buttoned up to bis beck. He wore a long white 'am-cn, a peaked cap and a chlnplece of astonishing naturalness bad transformed him in*o the semblance of a Dutch grocer's boy. "I'm off, professor," Quest whis pered. "You shall hear from me soon. I have not been here, remember!" Ho ran lightly down the steps and Into the kitchen, picked up a basket, fll>ed lt haphazard with vegetables and threw a cloth over the top. Then ho made his way to the front door, peered out for a moment, swung through it on to the step, and, turning round, commenced to belabor it with his fist. Two plain-clothes men stood at the end cf the street. A police automo bile 'Jrew up outside the gate. Inspec tor French, attended by a policeman, stepped out. Tho former looked search ingly at Quest. "Well, my boy, what are you doing here?" ho asked. "I cannot answer yet," Quest re plied, In broken English. "Ten min uta already hav> I wasted. I have knocked at all the doors." French smiled. "You run along home," he said, "and tell your master that he had better leave off delivering goods here for the present" Quest went off, grumbling. French opened the door with a master key and secured it carefully, leaving one of bis men to guard it. He searched the rooms on the ground floor and Anally ascended to Quest's study. The pro fessor was still enjoying his cigar. "Say, where's Quest?" tl'.e Inspector asked promptly. "Have you let him out already?" the professor replied, In a tone of mild surprise. "I thought he was in the Tombs prison." The Inspector pressed on without answering. Every room in the house was ransacked. Presently ho came back to the room where the professor With.Marvelous Rapidity, the Change Was Effected. waa still sitting. His usually good humored face was a little clouded. "Professor," be began- "What's the matter. Miles?" A plain-clothes man from the street bad come hurrying into the room. "Say, Mr. French," he reported, "our fellows have got bold of a newsie down In the street, who was coming slong 'way round the back and ssw two men enter this house by the side entrance, half an hour ago. One he described exactly as the professor aero. The other, without a doubt, waa Quest" French turned swiftly toward the professor. "Yon hear what this men says?" lie exclaimed. Mr. Ashleigh, you're Tooling me! You entered this boneo with Sanford Que -* Yon will have U> tell us where he is hiding." The professor knocked the ash from dla cigar and replaced lt In his month, dis clasped bands rested In front >f bim. There waa a twinkle of some thing; like mirth in his eyes aa he glanced np at the Inspector. "M.-. French," he ssld, "Mr. Sanford 3 ? eat ls my friend, I sm here tn marge ot bis house. Believing ss I lo that his arrest was an egregious Munder, 1 sball say or do nothing like y to afford you any information." French turned impatiently away. Suddenly a light broke in upon bim; ie rushed towsrd the door. That d-d Dutcblo!" he exclaimed. The professor smiled benignly. (TO BB CONTINUED.)
