Yesterday's Mystery Solution
TN TUB case of "The Denial" the
very point that lulled tho suspicions
of the customs collector was the one
that arouscil the suspicions of Harvey
Hunt.
Why should Bauborjr have so strenu
ously denied any Implication In smug
gling" denied it with such wiilesprcnil
publicity especially when no ileilnito
charges had been mnilo ngnlnst him.
Unrvey Hunt realized that one way
to make people believe n thins is
vociferous!) to deny it. Hut why
should Iianborg want people to think
he wns n binuggler? Certainly he
wouldn't if he really wns. Thcieforo,
Hunt argued, he had some other
nefarious purpose.
It nil became clear upon the mention
of his uplift work. Hnnborg associated
with buiglnrs nnd millionaires, a source
and a mntket for gems, stolen gems. By
playing his game in n wide field he
could keep gems circulating Indefinitely.
Millionaires who would not knowingly
buy stolen goods would have no such
ipialms of conscience if they thought
they were merely buying smuggled
jewels, llnuborg would have their con
fidence ns regards their jewelry, nnd
could tip off his burglar friends ns to
where they might obtain the best hauls.

Pinching Shoes
TT HAPPENED In the bouse next
JL door while Ilnrvev Hunt was visit
ing his mother anil sister-in-law In the
little town of Hndwin, in the Middle
AVest.
Tho neighborhood had been arouscil
bv tho cries of Allan Tarnog, Joseph
.llrnlnard's butler. Hunt nnd his
brother Robert, who nnu staycti up unni
tho wee hours talking, leaped through
the Flinch windows nnd over the porch

ard's house just us llramnru nimseii.
aroused from bed, came down from tin
second floor.
The old-fashioned snfo in tho Ilrniu
aril library had been blown open. About
It the blankets, with which the sounu
hail been smothered, still smoldeted
Hut what held the attention of nil was
the figure sprawled on the floor. The
body was that of n man. It was
dressed in rough clothing, nnd lay face
up. Hut the face had been crushed be
yond all recognition by n terrific blow.
Plainly the small letter press lying on
the tloor beside it was the weapon.
Scntteieil n bo ut the floor was a Bet of
burglar's tools.
"I did it, sir. I did it. sir. He was
robbing jour safe tir," said tho butler
in a shaky voice. "He's quite ilcu'l.
sir. Quite dead ! No need for you to
touch him, sir."
Something in the man's tones caused
Harvey Hunt to look nt him iti:il,ly.
He was clnd in undershirt, troupers and
shoes. The shoes nppnrently pinched
uncomfortably, and he shifted uneasily
from one font to the other, iuuumru
ously intensifying the picture ot agita
tion he presented.
Sensing something out of place in that
picture, Harvey Hunt quietly drew aside
and concentrated his attention on him
ns lie detailed to his employer and Itob
ert Hunt what had happened.
He had thought he heard a noise, he

few steps the muffled explosion had
taken place, nnd he bad rushod into
the library nnd encountered the bur
iilar. In the fight that followed ho said
ho bad knocked the burglar down, but
tho latter had pulled a gun on him nnd
in self-ilefcuso ho had sclzod the heavy
letter pnss and burled it at tho man's
head, llien lie had shouteil.
As he finished bis recital Harvey Hunt
realized what it was nbout tho fel
low that bad seemed out of place. IIH
agitation, Hunt thought, partook more
of the nature of a tmtUficd anger or
revenge, whereas it would have more
naturally becu that of mingled relief and
horror.
"Hut nothing hns been taken from
tho safe!" exclaimed Ilrainard, who bad
finally thought to cxamluo tho contents.
"Everything is here."
"Yts, sir," 6ald the butler, "I rushed
him before he bad a changa to touch
anything."
''Well," said Urainnrd, "I gueii you
better telephone Constable Horrls. Don't
worry, ninn ; you won't be blamed for
It. There's no rrimc in killing n
burglar In Bel,-defense." Uralnard
turned again to tho safe, while the
butler looked about In n helpless sort of
way for the telephone, anu then, red
dening under the scrutiny of Harvey
Hunt, fumbled through the llttlo tele
phone directory.
"Huik un. Tnrnow." intcrrunted
Itobert Hunt, "don't go to pieces tbnt

Harris' number on tho card beside the
phone, You put it there yourself tho

Iliuinnrd arose from in front of the
cafe ut lust.
1 "Tlii thing hns mo upset, too," be
muttered. "There's nothing missing,
but I could have sworn I put those
Liberty bonds on the bottom shelf, and
here they are, jammed In at tho top."
Ten minutes later tho constnblo ar
rived. Then Harvey Hunt did u strange
thing.
"Arrest that man for murder, consta
ble," he snnppel. whipping out bis auto
11111' i and covering the butler.
Ilrainard wheeled toward him in sud

' mantled. "For defending my property

THE BEETHOVEN RECITAL
Mme. 8amaroff Plays Flvo of the
Piano Sonatas at Fifth Concert
At last evening's Iloethoven recitnl,
the fourth In thn ballroom of tho llclle-
vue-Stratford, Mine. Hnmnroff plnved
five of the sonntns, thoso In K-shnrp
major, I) minor, G mayor, (I minor
nnd the groat "Wnldsteln" in (' major
Each was preceded by some explana
tory remarks bv Mr. Ntokowski and in
the D minor, in some respects the most
elaborate of the five, hi asked Mme.
Snmnroff to piny certnin phrases which
the more clenrlv Illustrated his mean
ing, such ns showing tonally how the
first theme of tho first movement wns
derived directly from tho introduction.
The V major sonata, an especial
favorite nf tho composer, enmo first
on the program nnd it is a work which
Mr. Htokowski properly described ns
written in tho idiom which Schumann
afterward dcvelopod to n high point.
It was beautifully played nnd with a
full nympnthy with tho evident Inten
tion of tho composer. Second enmc
the great D minor, ono of tho greatest
nnd most profound of the piano sonatas
In spite of tho fact thnt it wns com
posed comparntlvoly early in the com
poser's life. Mine. Hnmaroff played
the opening movement with the fire nnd
vigor which it demands nnd brought
out nil tho charm nnd pathos of the
lovely slow movement. The Inst move
ment, the nllegretto, wns tnken at a
pace which in places endangered its
gracefulness.
The two little sonatas, opus 41), each
in two movements, were played ns one.
Mr. Stokowski referred to the fact that,
although evidently composed in the
early period of Ilcethoven's life, they
wero not made public by him until his
middle period. As a matter of fact,
tho first phraso of the minuet of the fr
mnjor sonata was used by Ilevthoven,
noto for note. In the septet for wood aud
strings op. 20.
The program closed with the "AVald
stein" sonata, ono of tho giants of
piano sonntn composition. Mme. Sam
aroff took the first movement nt n very
rapid tempo, slowing tho hymnlikc sec
ond theme noticeably, but nevertheless
showing the full nrchltceturnl benuty,
ns well as tho great emotional depth of
the movement. In the second nnd third
movements, which Mr. Stokowski de
clared seemed always to him to be one
movement in two parts, Mme. Snm
aroff did her best playing of tho eve
ning with tho posslblp exception of tho
ndagio of tho D minor.
