Yesterday's Mystery Solution
IS TIIH cane of "One of tho Twenty
One," Hunt identified Ilutherholt by
the fact that he had calmly poured his
coffee, not into IiIb cup but beyond it.
This proved that he did not have the
sight of both eyes.
The ordinary person, judge distance,
particularly .f near objetn, on exactly
ine same principle aa that of the range
finder. The two eyes do not ace the ob
Jcct from exnetly the name angle, and
this ancle of difference rarlea with the
distance of the object. When the ob
ject is so far away that the angle of
the eyes Is the aamc. distance can only
be judged by size. Objects appear flat
against tncir background). To the per
son with the sight of only one eye this
Is also true of objects near at hand,
nnd It is common for such persons to
misjudge them.
The sight of an eye is sometimes
lost without nny change in its appear
ance. This was where the detective
made his mistake. He was looking for
a man with one eye injured or missing,
XCI?C
Can you solve the mystery in
this case of
Arson
Tlin rice president of the Insurance
company leaned back in his chair.
"I'll tell you why I sent for you. Mr.
Hunt," he said. "We've had a Ion
over at Iladson Transfer that looks
suspicious to me. I suppose you rend
about the fire. A number of automo
biles, the property of the Durvlne Co.,
were bur noil in transit. That Is, they
were technically in transit. They were
being held by the railroad In n shed
there pending reshlnment. There were
slxtr machines totally destroyed. We'll
have to pay the low, I imagine, but it
PK SPEAK
looks to me like the work of n firebug.
Take a look into it for us, will you. nnd
let mo know if you find out anything,"
The same afternoon found Harvey
Hunt at the scene of the fire. It was
a point at which freight was tranufcrrcd
from one railroad to another, rather a
deserted snot. The nlntlon was in
charge of on agent paid Jointly by the
two roads, and consisted of several
small storage buildings nnd an ofllce.
One of these buildings was a. mass of
smoldering, ruins. It was only n one
story affair .15 by r0 feet, Irot the walls
had fallen in and the nutomobiles were
n indistinguishable mass ol wreckage.
Hunt fell into conversation with one of
tho firemen who remained on duty.
"Home fire," the man remarked.
"Them gasoline tanks were all full, and
I want to tell you, bo, COO gallons of
gasoline makes some little blaze. The
place had a wood floor too."
"Why were the Unks filled?" asked
Hunt. "That sct-ms unusual for cars
In shipment."
"They'd been run out hero, from the
city under their own power," explained
the agent, who at that moment walked
up. Where you from, tho insurance
company? I guess you'll want io see
tho records then. Oomo on in the
office. "
"I'll be over there In a minute." said
Hunt. He continued his conversation
with the fireman for a while. Then ho
pared off the length nnd width of the
building accurately nnd finally sauntered
over to the office, where he looked at
the duplicate of the agent's report
showing the sixty cars had been run
Into the building the night beforo nnd
the doors locked, and that some time
during the early morning the lire had
broken out from some unknown cause.
Hunt approached the agent, who was
showing n groat deal of nervous energy
in his attention to the work on his
desk.
