He inlglrt suspect this sudden vanishing had direct connection with the crime he was endeavoring to solve, but he p<>?* sessed ahsolntely no proof, and, apparently, any further movement on r his part was completely blocked, f More puzzled than ever, although now fully convinced that murder had been committed, West could do nothing hut wait the reappearance of Sexton. I The latter arrived promptly on time, i " and West told his story. His listener ? seemed to sense the situation clearly, t "It wasn't no mistake, your goln' ; ? out there, sir," he said confidently. , "Whnt we know now gives us somer thing to work on anyhow, an' It's Just j what I thought?that trip Sunday led up to this klllln', an* something hap' pened while they was In there to stir ?

"Well, she an' I always hit It off ; 1 together, an' I talked with her quite a i bit. She told me, sir, that Miss Natalie i had a telephone call this morning that took her Into the city. Lizzie she ! i went to the 'phone when It rang, an* 1 It was a man's voice. He wouldn't ' leave no message, but Insisted on < speaking to Miss Natalie.

West hnrdly took the adventure serl- '' ousl.v, being more Influenced hy curl- P ostty than any other motive, but Sex- t* ton was deeply In earnest. In full faith they were upon the right trail.

To avoid this possibility, he had donned his Ic most shabby suit, and wore a cap "1 largely concealing his face. In one di pocket of his Jacket within easy reach o! lay hidden his service revolver loaded, and he had Induced Sexton to accept ni n smaller weapon In case of emergency. The street wns not Inviting, the pi saloon on the corner being flanked by tc teveral small factories.

The two men j>resse<l their way h rough along a narrow passage, finding leas obstruction as they adcanced, the second block being composed entirely of houses, largely ot the tenement type, and apparently principally populated hy children. Wrny street waa ilned with homes, asuully humble enough outwardly, yet S<> thorotighfaie was clean, and the mall yards had generally an ap earunce of neatness; 238 was a hive-story brick, on the corner, lie second story evidently utilized for Iving purposes, and the ground floor coupled us a saloon. The upper story xhlhlted no signs of occupancy, the rlndows unwashed, and two of them oarded'up. The two lingered In anertainty opposite the house. Standing hero idly, however, did not appeal o West. "Well, let's go ovfer," he said lmntiently. "There Is nothing to be arued hero." It was an ordinary bar-room and, heir entrance apparently aroused no perlul Interest.
