CHAPTEE VII.
THE Pr.OBECUTIOX IS HEARD.
jEEXPA returned to El
sie's room after ar-
ran^ing with Kendall
to be notified at once
if her father should
secure Aitkin's release
and he should come
to the hospital. As
she passed out of the reception roam
she encountered Dr. Johnson, who was
In the act of euterinj;. lie took a seat
upon a corner of the table and met
•with some evidences of embarrassment
the look which Kaudull turned upor
him.
“Were yon listening there?" demand
ed Kendall after half a minute's si
lence.
“Well, I couldn’t help hearing a word
or two,” the other admitted. "You see.
1 was looking for you, and l didn’t
want to interrupt the conversation.”
“This thing must stop. Mr. Elmen-
dorf." said Kendall. “I've been drag
ged into it by. the heels. I gave yon
my word in the dark before I knew
what you were going to do.”
“I didn’t know myself what I was
going to do.” replied the detective. “1
came up here with orders to he present
when Miss Maclane went into Miss
Hiller's room.”
“1 did not suppose that this decep
tion would extend to Miss Maclane
when I made my promise.” said Ken
dall. "1 understood that she had^seen
you; that she knew who you were. And
you are not disguised.”
“1 have shaved off my mustache.”
said the detective, “and I look like the
devil without it. Hut this whole mat
ter of disguise is merely knowing what
somebody else will notice. When
you're going to he' recogift zed. send an
other man. Miss Machine had too
much on her mind at the Thirty-eighth
street house. .She couldn't have told
afterward 'whether 1 was white or
black. And so. with the mustache gone
and these goggles for my eyes, it was a
sure thing.”
“Why was it necessary?”
“I reported to headquarters that Miss
Machine was coming down here,” re
plied Elniendorf, “and the old man
wanted to get a Hue on it.”
.“On what?”
“Whether they'd seen each other be
fore. The result was a little p^uliar,
as you'll admit. Your patient recog
nised Miss Maclane at a glance, but
Miss Maelane says she uever saw Miss
Miller before. What do you make of
It? Of course Miss Maclane has told
•o many different stories”—
“It is perfectly natural” said Ken
dall, checking Elniendorf by word and
gesture. "Miss Maclane is promi
nent in society. Her picture has-been
printed in the newspapers a hundred
times. With a natural motive for In
terest in her. Miss Miller has undoubt
edly familiarized herself with Miss
Maclane’s appearance. She may even
have seen her entering a church on
the occasion ,of a society wedding—
or in some similar way.”
“That’s the easy answer,” replied
Elmendorf. "and I guess It’s right. One
thing is certain—if Miss Maclane struck
that blow. Miss Miller didn't see her,
and the poor girl’s story Is true.”
“if Miss Maclane struck the blow?”
repeated Kendall dazed. “What
earthly reason have you”—
“Now, see here,” said Elmendorf,
“let’s view this matter calmly No
body can be hurt by a straightT honest
view of the facts, except the one that
ought to lie hurt, the cowardly, black
hearted murderer who did this thing.
Talk about calmness! Wait a minute."
He walked hack and forth two or
three times lietwoen the table and the
corner of the room, finally facing Ken
dall squarely and continuing:
“I dpu’t usually care a— Excuqj me.
I don’t usually swear, either, and 1
won’t do it i"• w. I was going to say
tbtt these things dop’t effect uw. as a
rule: tbey':i all in the way of business.
But somehow this takes mild of me.
How could anybody harm that little
'jr\r
* And be took another turn across the
[iss Miller exerts a strange influ
ence,” said Kendall “I suppose we’re
at least as hard hearted as the police,
hut I caught Dr. Carrington, the ambu
lance surgeon who went out on this
case, walking up and down In bis room
and telling another of our young doc
tors what he would like to do to the
n>nn who was responsible for this. The
room smelled of brimstone from the
language that he used. And between
ourselves, Mr. Elmendorf, the thing
filled me with horror such.as 1 haven't
felt In a good many years. It Is the
personality of the girl undoubtedly.
There’s nothing unusual about the
ease.”
“Well 1 would hardly say that." re
turned Elmendorf. “There are a few
things that I wouldn’t call exactly or
dinary—Miss Maclahe’s conduct, for in
stance.”
"She explained that perfectly to me.”
replied Kendall.
“Yes.” said Elmendorf. “1,happened
to hear the explanation. And now let
me tell you something. It Is a moral
certainty that Miss Maelane went to
that house before she says she did;
that vhe was there very close to the
Element of the crime, sot to pot it any
“What do you mean?” demanded
Kendall.
“You have heard of the mysterious
woman iu the case?"
“Y'es. 8he was seen by Dr. Blair
leaving the house. But there’s always
sometbiug of that sort iu every affair
of the kind. It will be explained.”
“1 wish Miss Maelane would explain
it,” said Elmendorf. “for she was the
woman. Dr. Bfciir knows It beyond a
shadow of doubt.”
“If he knows It."’ returned Kendall,
“why hasn’t he said so?”
“Would you? Tut yourself in his
place. Would you throw that rope
around a woman’s neck before getting
a little more light on the matter? As
a man of the world and a doctor who's
learned in his business the value of
keeping his mouth shut, would you do
it? No. And Dr. Blair feels just the
same way. He wasn’t born yesterday.
When the time comes, he can give his
evidence.”
Kendall laid his hand upon his hair,
perhaps to satisfy himself that it was
not beginning to stand on end.
“Do you believe that lie will testify
against her?" he demanded. “Elmeu-
dorf, this is deadly serious.”
“Well, 1 should think it was,” said
the detective, “and the longer she keeps
quiet about it the more serious it gets.”
It was Kendall's turn to walk the
floor, and he did it.
“There are a thousand ehauees to
one," continued Elmendorf. "that if
tlie story she tells you is true she can't
prove it. Suppose she was iu a store.
Who’s going to remember her or the
time of day? Take her motive, take
her admissions to you if they were
made in court, combine them with
Blair’s evidence, and what do you sup
pose the resuit would be?”
“You cannot have seen her with Miss
Miller,” saiii Kendall "and still sus
pect her of this crime.”
Elmendorf hesitated, as if he could
hardly bring himself to destroy the
last refuge.
“There’s one way to look at that,” he
said at last. “Miss Maclane goes to
that house wild with rage after her
scene with Aldcu. 8he has the ”fi.\'‘d
idea’ that’s more iu crime than even
you doctors think it is. She gets iu
without seeing anybody because of the
defective catch of the lock. She walks
into that room. Miss Miller is on ♦he
balcony. Bight on the table, where ’he
devil must have put it. is that knife,
open perhaps, for the envelope that
held that uote vas cut. Miss Maclane
takes that knife, and ou the iu slant
Miss Miller comes in through the win
dow. the other girl shrinking iiavk to
ward the closet. She is behind Miss
Miller. She doesn’t see her. Y'ou know
how it would be with the girl entering
from the balcony, the bright light be
hind her. My friend, it’s all over in a
second, and Brenda Maclane doesn’t
know what she’s done until she comes
to this hospital and sees in that bed a
creature as different from the woman
she supposed she had struck down as
God could make.”
Kendall’s forehead was dripping wet.
“But the money ?” be gasped.
“Who knows anything about the-mon-
ey?” demanded Elniendorf. “It may
have lain out of sight until Neale and
his men got there, and one of them may
have lifted it. This is not for publica-
tioti. Dr. Kendall It’s between our-
aelvea.”
“It's a nightmare.” said Kendall; “I 1
don't believe a word of it.”
“If you don’t like the way I’ve put it,
let me give you another view.” replied
the detective. "Miss Maclane goes to
the house — heaven knows why. per
haps from curiosity. She goes up the
steps and sees through the glass panel
of the outer door Aklen iu the hall.
With the door of Miss Miller's room
open this would he jmssible. I’ve tried
It. Seeing Alden, Miss Maclane hur
ries away. She doesn’t know what Al-
don 1ms Just done, but she doesn’t want
to meet him. Dr. Blair sees her. but
does not see Alden, who comes out aft
erward. This would be natural for of
course Blair’s back was turned after

he passed the house. Let me tell you
that Miss Maclane, when she was ques
tioned. spoke of the chance that the
mysterious woman had merely gone up
the steps and then come right down

"I’d rat
Kendall.
a motive.”
"Motive!" echoed Elmendorf. "What
did Miss Maclane toll ,\ou? Didn’t she
say that Alden told her that Miss Mil
ler gave him no eucourag; ment? Sup
pose hi' went up there alter writing his
letter, which cheerfully assumed that
everything was all right, and suppose
she told him. onee and for all. that she
wouldn't have anything to do with
him. I’or her sake he had tempted
financial ruin by breaking it off with
Brenda Maelane. and now he finds that
he’s got nothing to pay for it. I’ll tell
you Alden isn’t the man to take that
oalmly.”
“If that’s the fact of the case,” said
Kendall, "how do you explain her si
lence ?”
“My dear sir,” replied Elmendorf,
“you’ve got me, 1 can’t. Bot who can
explain a woman anyhow? You believe
that Miss Miller is teWIng the truth,
don't you?”
“Did you hear me say so?”
“To Miss Maclane? No. The first
thing I heard you say to her wa* that
It was a fine thing that she had done.”
“I did say that I believed Miss Mil
ler. That is my present attitude.”
“In some respects,” said Elmendorf,
“It is the worst you could take—for
Miss Maclane. By the way, you will
permit her to remain with the patient?”
“Why not?” demanded Kendall stern
ly-
Elmendorf replied with haste that
he saw no objection whatever. There
was a brief silence, and then Kendall
left the room, saying that he would
return presently. As he passed the
head of the steps leading up from the
main entrance of the building the
doors below were suddenly flung open,
and a man appeared. He seemed tp
Kendall to come up the steps without
touching them. In an instant his hand
was on Kendall's arm. and the doctor
carried three bruises for a week as
the result of it.
Though the two men had a club ac
quaintance. Alden did not show the
slightest trace ol recognition.
“Miss Miller?” he said, his voice per
fectly steady, ghastly steady, as Ken
dall afterward described it. "Is she
alive?”
"She is.” replied the doctor, “and [
there is no immediate danger.”
“1 thank you.” said Alden. "I was
prettj nearly gone, I beg your par- ,
don, how do you do. Dr. Kendall?”
And he extended his hand.
“I understand perfectly.” said the i
doctor. “Miss Miller is conscious, en
tirely rational and suffering far less |
pain than you would suppose.”
“Who did this?” demanded Alden. I
“She has told you?”
“She does not know.”
“She does not know!” echoed Alden, !
his head sinking upon his breast.
“1 am sorr.\ to say that it will not ;
be wise for . ou to see her tonight.” |
said Kendall “We must not subject i
her to excitement. I'lease wait here/’ (
And he led the way to the reception !
room. "1 will go to Miss Miller's room
and bring you word.”
Alden found himself in the presence
of Elmendorf, whom he took to be one
of the doctors connected with the ■
establishment, wliieh may indicate
that there was more iu the detective’s
disguise than be bad been willing to
admit to Kendall
“1 called to inquire al»out Miss Mil
ler,” said Alden after maintaining
silence to what seemed the limit of
his power.
“You are Mr. Alden. 1 take Jit." was
the reply. “Well, you want to cheer
up. Miss Miller isdoiug hue.”
“lias she asked for me?”
“Yes.” but it was not Elmendorf’s
voice that replied. “She has asked for
you many times.”
Alden turned to see Brenda at the
door. lie stared at her as If she had
been a figure raised up by some sud
den conjuration.
“Brenda!” he said at last. “1 find:
you everywhere.”
“Did not my father tell you I was
here?" she ashed,*and be shook his
head.
“1 shall remain with Milss Miller un
til her mother comes,” said Brenda.
“Dr. Kendall has arranged it.”
Alden seemed momentarily to be at
a loss for words, but be did not strug
gle for them or labor visibly with esno-
tiou. His manner still remained os it
liad been, thi-ougboutr-restraiued* me-
chanlcuJ.
“You are true blue; Brenda,” 1;* said
steadily. “You always were.”
"! am very glad to be here,” she in-
terrupted. speaking softly and leading
him aside, •‘che i». an altogether lova-
Me girl and 1 am going to be a sister
to her,” she addfcd, smiling, "instead
of to you. as is customary under the
clrvuinstances. 1 will see that she la
not harassed bj .questious and that she
lacks nothing that can possibly be
had.” *■
“I cannot see her tonight,” said Al
den. “Can 1 send a message?"
“I will take it to her.” replied Bren
da. “And, by the way, 1 saw some
violets iu her room. She likes them
especially, does she not? 1 think Dr.
Kendall would let me take In a few
from you.”
“In five minutes 1 will have them,”
said Alden. “You will wait here? It
Is very kind of you.”
He left the room hastily, and Brenda
explained his errand. Kendall’s man
ner led her to think that she might
have made an error in suggesting the
violets, but it was a very different mat
ter that was upuu the doctor's mind.
He was making an effort to express
himself when Elmendorf interrupted
him.
“Dr. Kendall is worried,” he said,
“because he has permitted me to play
a trick upon you. To tell the truth. 1
don't like it any better than he does,
and here is where it ends, lam not a

“I am as anxious as any one can
be.” she said, “to have justice done
in this deplorable affair. Do you think
you can find out who committed this
crime, Mr. Elmendorf? Do you sus
pect any one?"
"I haven’t got any authority to find
out anything or suspect anybody.” re
plied Elmendorf. iu a tone which indi
cated that this familiar situation was
not agreeable in the present instance.
“I go where I am sent and then I make
a report. What becomes of the infor
mation afterward is a matter with
which the sultan of Sulu has more to
do than I have. But I’ll tell you what
! thftik.” he added earnestly. “If this
poor girl gets well that will tie the
last youT bear about the case. If she
dies, it will all have to come out. *
“But you don't think she will die?”
cried Brenda, paling.
“I hope not,” replied Elmendorf,
“and of course my opinion in that
matter is worth even less than it is
In the other. Bot we mustn’t take her
recovery for granted at this stage ot
tin* game. Am I right. Dr. Kendall?”
“There can be no certainty yet,” re
plied the doctor gravely.
"Her condition might change for the
worse quite suddenly, isn't that so?"
continued Elmendorf. “And If it did
she might become unconscious and re
main so to the end. That's the fact, and
we must face it. This may be murder,
and the safe way is to get at the truth
now while we can.”
“I won’t have her questioned any
more tonight,” said Kendall with de
cision. “I’ve blocked off a coroner
already who was here for an ante
mortem statement, and I am prepare*!
for the next comer. Miss Miller shall
not be harried into her grave, and if
any attempt of the kind is made I
will shew a few points of law that

“Your advice goes, with me.” Eimen-
dorf hastened to say; "but I don't
think the particular question I had in
mind could do any harm.”
"Y’ou may state it," said Kendall.
"It was about a picture that 1 saw
lu her room.” replied the detective,
“a photograph of a painting. 1 should
say. I'd like to know where it came
from; how she Inippened to get it.
Ugly looking thing it is, and 1 couldn’t
help wondering about it."
“Y'ou mean the picture of ’IMmalus,"

Notice to Assessors.
Township and Special Boards of Assessors
will take notice that by Acts of Ml you orw
required to be and appear at the Auditor’s
office annually on the first Tuesday In
March for the purpose of performingtbe dut
ies devolving upon them.
K is their duty to carefully ^pnslder the
returns and lists laid before them by the
County Auditor, and, if necessary, compare
the returns and tax duplicates for previous
yea-s, and to diligently search for and to
discover all property, both real and personal,
iu ti.t-.r respective tax districts not returned
By the owner or agent thereof, or not listed
lor taxation by tbe tlouniy AuUjtor.
I suggest that the boards perforin their
duty at the court house as there are a great
many who have listed their real property at
greatly reduced prices from last year’s du
plicate, and I cannot see how you can do
your whole duty unless you have the yearly
duplicates to refer to. This return must be
passed upon and returned to the Auditor oa
or before the third Monday In March. Here
in fall not it your peril.
