THE TRIANGULAR HYPOTHESIS

"Dernburg was shrewd. unscrupu-
lous and farsighted. But he was not
eh enough. and be was not fab
sig ted enough. The stranger. who
came to see him last night. knew all
about him. know every dotaii at his
activities. :new the big plan that he
had in mind. He had watched him.
had followed his career. He knew
the very day that be came to Paris.
He knew his object in taking this
vmpty house in the Faubourg St.
Germain. He knew every step of
the secret arrangements which Dern-
burg had perfected for the carrying
out of his scheme; and at the oppor-
tuno hour he entered this house.
These are the facts. monsieur. which
i havo accurately ascertained. which
are true beyond doubt.“
"And so." said the Oriental. "this
mysterious stranger finally ran
Dernburg Pasha. to earth here and
killed him."

The Prefect of Police arrested the
man's discourse with a gesture.

"You travel. monsicur." he said.

”YOU CANNOT MEAN THAT
DERNBERG I'ASIIA \VAS MUR-
DERED BY A DEAD MAN!"

"a point beyond my conclusions. Do
we know that this midnight visitor
is the assassin? ‘vVo must consider
the evidences as they are presented
to us."

"Tho widonces nro conclusive of
this fact," ropiit‘d the Envoy. "if cir-
cumstantial evidence- can ever be
conclusive of a murder. Hero is the
Opportunity. the quarrel, the dead
man remaining in the library. blood-
drops falling from the weapon on
this drawing-room floor as ho hastily
crossul i:. and the escape over the
wall of the xnrden.”

“But. monsieur." laid the Prefect
of Police. “whom is the motive? The
write-rs on the value of indicatory
evidences. in the investigation of e
criminal case. tell us that there
should be time. opportunity and mo-
tive. The time. monsieur. and the
opportunity are hora. plainly indi-
cated; but the motive? VV’here shall
we look for that?"

The Oriental turned. as with an
inspiration. in his chair.

"th3'. monsieur." he said. "you
spoke at considerable length upon
the motive. You seemed to know it
quite well. You conceal. as you
havo indicated. the somewhat mysto
rious evidence of it in your hand.”

"Quite true. monsieur.” replied the
Prefect of Police! "but you will ob-
serve that it is I who arr familiar
with this motive. It. 1 who have
what you'are plan to call ‘thls
concrete evidence' in my hand. And
that brings ms to an interesting hy-
pothesis with three phases to be con-
sidered. Let us consider them. mon-
sieuri I name them in the order in
which they occur to me: first. mon-
eieur, that I killed the man: second.
that you killed him: and third. that
the agency that killed Dcrnburg
Pasha is no longer living in this

"To arrive at that." he said. “we
must first consider . the evidences .
which have led you to believe that
Dex-abort was killed by the man
with whom he quarreled last night
inthellbs-ary. Romuyonpiooaa.
moneieur. we will look a little at the
Indicatory signs."

Ho paused.

“rhoro is always this disturbing
foam about circumstantial ovi-
dsnco. the trick of pointing in the
direction that one is going. If one
has a conclusion. one will and that
the circumstantial evidence supports
it. You have a theory. monsicur.
that this visitor was Dornburs's as-
sassin. and consequently. to You. the
indicatory evidence supports that
thmry. But. monsienr. I have the
theory that the visitor was not the
assassin. and I bid you observe how
the indicator-y evidences will turn
themselves about in order to support
the theory which I maintain. e.
for example. those blood-drops on the
marble door of the drawing rossn. In
support of your theoryrihoz' lave
fallen by hazard from tho-W’s
knife in his flight. andyou will!“
cite them as confirmatory of your
theory.

“Now. monaiour. I would cit'o men:
also as confirmatory 0:

"You will obeorvethat each of
these seven blood-drops has alien on
a white square of this checkered
marb'e floor. There is no drop of
blood on a black square. Why. mon-
sieur. should these drops appear only
on the while squares?‘ I consider
that tact with my theory in mind.
and I conclude that they so appear
because the one who placed them
there wished them to be seen. “re
cannot conceive that he would un-
dertake to create 'evidonce' against
himself. And it is beyond our con-
ception of coincidence that each of
these seven blooddrope should. by
accident. have fallen precisely on a
white square when there was an
equal number of black squares inter
voning. Therefore. moneieur. those
ovidences did not come by chance;
they came by design.”

He continued like one who recites
the details of a. formula:

"I find my theory also confirmed
at a farther point. You explained to
me. when I inquired. that the atom
sin, after fleeing through this draw-
ing room into the walled garden. had
escaped by climbing over thh wail.
since the gate was nailed up and had
been so nailed up for a long time.
Now, monsieur. I caused this wall to
be examined. The whole or the top
of it is coated over with dust, At no
point has any of this dust been re-
moved: consequently the assassin
did not escape by climbing over the
wall. for if he had under-Men to
climb the wall at any point. his body.
in that labor. would haVo romoved
the coating of dust. You see. lion-
sieur, I do not find your indicatory
evidences designed to support your
theory. They seem rather conclu-
sively to establish my own."

'He made a vague gesture as
though to dismiu the matter.

"And so. monsieur. we find our-
selves before the triangular hypo
thesis! Did I murder Dembnrg
Pasha. or did you. or was he. in (am.
murdered at all?"

The Oriental looked at the man in
a sort oi wonder.

"lie was surely murdered."
sold.

The Prefect of Police spoke like
one in some reflection.

"It is by no means certain."

"Not certain?" echoed the Envoy.
”The man is deadl"

“One may bedcad without having
been murdered." replied the Prefect
of Police. "it is possible that the
hand that gave Dcrnburg Pasha his
fatal wound is no longer alive in
this world."

The Turkish Envoy made an ex-
clamation of surprise.

"You cannot mean that Ddrnburg
Pasha was murdered by a dead
man!"

The worst of McMillan cased.

 

Old Han Comte had lost all de-
sire for a Beaver dinner. Yes. sir,
he had so. In all the Green Forest
there was no one so upset and mis-
erable as Old Han Coyote. It would

have been .bad enough just to have .

discovered .thst he had mistaken
some one also for one of those
B’ve‘rs. But to this disappointment

gunpcd into the pond of Paddy the
cover. .

Fortunately Old Man Coyote , can
swim. He doesn't like to. but he can
ween he has to. So he paddled for
share as fast as he could make his
legs is. When he reached the shore
he s upped only long enough to
shake as much of the water out of
his cost as he could, and then
sneaked away. He didn’t Just run
or trot away. but sneaked away. You
see besides bei wet. cold and sore
ho was ashame . He wes ashamed
of having made such a dreadful misc
tske. for on know he is usually very
smart an clever. So with head and
tail down he sneaked away. it. would
be a long time before he would visit
the ponds of Paddy the Beover spin.
You see he couldn't bear the thought
of being laughed at.

As soon as he was well away from
that pond he stopped and with his
teeth pulled out the the little spears

Prick! Porky had left stickin in
one hnd leg. The pain of u in;
them out made him whine. ut he

knew they had to come out. When
the last one was out ho licked the

straight for home. Somehow be had

ho was ‘ ed with bitter. on y

blamed Prickly Porky for a‘. his
troubles. ‘And he kept aeying over
and over to himucli that some day
he would timu.

As for oily Potty. after the
first shock of surprise «and fright
when Old Kan Carats had so un-
