"May I speak to Miss Moore. please?" “Who is calling?" Mrs. Prentiss responded. in a tone which she en- deavored to make sound like that of a servant. “No matter. Merely ask Miss Moore to come to the telephone. This is important.” The voice was cold. dictatorial and impatient. Clearly. the speaker was in a temper. New. Mrs. Prentiss did not know Perry Heath well. but her ever pres- ant intuition hinted to her that. I might be she was listening to his voice. It didn't sound exac like Heath. but some voices are iffcrent on the telephone. and she couldn't be sure. Taking a chance. she said. still in the deferential tone of a servant: "Is this Mr. Heath? Miss Bunny said she would not speak on the telephone to anyone else.” Mrs. Prentiss heard the astonished .- gasp at the other end of the lint. and grinned with satisfaction. . But the reply came: “Heath? No. this is—this is Jackson. Please tell Miss Moore 1 must speak with her. You may say I have miportant news for her." Suddenly Emily Prentiss felt that she was overstepping the bounds of propriety. She was a gentlwoman. not a detective, and she had no right to intercept or eavesdrop upon a private communicathu. ‘ So she said simply. “Miss Moore is next door at the Heath house. If you wish. you can cell her there.” V‘Thank you." was the response. and without further goodby. the voice ceased. The advice. however. was followed, for a few moments later the tele- phone bell rang in the Heath studio. Inman mashed for the receiver, but Mott was too quick for him. Grasping it first. the detective said. briskly: 'flelloi" “Hello.” said a man's voice. “i want to speak to Miss Moore. and make it snappy!" Though not very quick-wilted. Mott was ingenious. and endeavon ing to sound like Herrick. he said: “Miss Moore ain't hero, sir.” ”Yes. 1 ant" cried Bunny. so loud thathervoioecuriedoverthewire as she sprang toward the instru- ment. and tried to wrest it from Mott's grasp. And so agile and lithe were the dlrl's hands. that she succeeded. and in a moment. she was listening to Heath's voice. ' “For Heaven's sake. Bunny. you are as W iii Now. listen, I havetospeakfast.

As you asked me to do. I am speaking straightforwardly. The time has passed for mincing matters. To my mind. the death of Mrs. Heath must it: been brought about by one of twins»; her husband or one of h wo house guests. Her husband is out of the question. because it was impossible for him to get out of the house and leave it locked and bolted behind him. Also, Mr. Inman is not a likely suspect. because he was in love with the lady. “I am told‘that Mr. Inman's affec- tion for Mrs. Heath was known not only to her husband and household. but to most of her friends and ac- quaintances. Now, even granting that he would be inheritor of her estate. Mr. lumen is not going to kill the woman he loves. Then. where can we look for the murderer but to bar girl friend. the visitor of Mrs. Heath. who is. incidentally. in love with Mrs. Heath's husband. and will doubtless some day marry him?" "What?" Bunny's face was deadly white and her eyes stared in horror and dismay. “That’s the way things look." esld Mott. “Also. it must be remembered. that Miss Moore's linger-prints are on the broken bottle which was used as the weapon of death—" "mne are there. to. I am told." exclaimed IArry lumen. “Yes. but yours are over those of Miss Moore—superimposed upon~ hers. This. as you can't help seeing. proves that the bottle was first used by Miss Moore. as a deadly weapon. and afterward picked up «- ex- amined by Mr. lumen. Perhaps he feeling that the party here would do well to endorse the candidacy of Judge Benjamin W. Ailing. republi- cnn candidate for state senator. due to the strong support which he has among the voters of all classes in the city. The democrats also have yet to choose nominees for two places from this city in the house of repre- sentatives and there appears to be a scarcity of candidates for these places. It is understood the demo- critic town committee, headed by Chairman John E. R. Keevcrs. will convene next Monday evening to discuss campaign plans.
