Wah and His Wilea. RJSJ * lOHN DORR stood stupidly Hgj I I staring at the papers which KSSJS he Orad found in the locked HiSwl drawer of the dresser. His brief Inquiries at the desk had only served to make the matter darker, so he had come back to the room to puz zle things out. Painfully he set the facts in order before him. The first was that Ruth bad gone to New York to deal with Everett about money for improvements to the "Master Key." The second was that she had evidently not been able to find Everett and had started west again. The third was that she had been in this very room. There lay the papers that represented the mine and its value. But how—where—how could it be? His businesslike senses returned, and lie proceeded to wire Everett's office In New York, with the result that he was soou in possession of his address in San Francisco. "So Everett's here, too," he mutter ed. "That is stranger yet. I guess it was time I dropped in. Now to find Ruth!" He thrust the packet of papers in his pocket and then withdrew them and iocked them again into the dresser drawer. He had a dim notion that Ruth might come back for them. Then he telephoned to the St Francis hotel and left word for Everett, who was re ported to be out. Still following what his common sense told him was the logical method of unraveling the tangle he went down to the desk and entered into conversa tion with the clerk. Meanwhile his eye ran down the register. Opposite the number of the room he now occupied he saw a heavily scrawled "Mrs. J. Darnell and daughter." He frowned and the clerk said sym MONDAY EVENING, pathetically. "You must have a nasty headache?'* "I have," John returned. "Met with an accident in an auto that rather up set me." He laid his finger on the reg ister and. controlling his voice, went on as if casually, "I see Mrs. Darnell stops here." To Dorr's secret amazement the clerk became mysterious, leaning across the desk to whisper. "Ah, you know her?" "I wanted specially to see her." John equivocated "is she here?" "She Is not, aud she left in a very strange way," the clerk explained quietly. "Slie came here last evening with her daughter. 1 gave them the room you have noiv. Along in the late hours she suddenly came down with the irirl unconscious and told me that she had been taken very ill and she was hurrying her to a hospital. There were a couple of men with her, and the house detective didn't like the looks of the whole affair, so he followed them.'' "Was the girl very fair haired and— nud beautiful?" Dorr managed to ask In au indifferent tone. "Precisely," responded the clerk, sud denly matching his guest's manner. "If you want to find Mrs. Darnell maybe the house detective got her ad dress—or the address of the hospital they took the girl to." Presently, in response to a summons, appeared the detective, who scanned John's somewhat bruised face thought fully. saying nothing until the clerk explained that Mr. Dorr wished, if pos tfble. to get into communication with Mrs. Darnell. "The best I can do is to find the taxi driver for yon." he said slowly, still studying John's stalwart figure. "He may be out Oil the stand now. Let's see." As they passed oat the detective con tinued hesitatingly. "Do you know Mrs Darnell very well?" There was that in the man's tone that made John pause before answer ing. He glanced at the cool, impas sive face and caught the glint of the steady eyes. He took a sudden resolu tlou. "I believe you're really interested In this matter." Dorr said briefly. "Sup pose we talk this over before hunting the taxi chauffeur." "I was merely curious, that's all," was the noncommittal murmur. "That girl is not her daughter," John continued. "I have reason to believe that it is Miss Ruth Gallon, the heir ess to the 'Master Key' mine, whom she is abducting." His passion blazed forth 'n spite of his self restraint. "1 must find her and save her." "Might I nsk what relation you are to the young lady?" nsked the detec tive mildly. John stared at blue and then realized the oddity of his actions and words. He briefly explained his position at the mine and his wardship of the heiress. He also went into detail as to what he suspected Wilkerson of, describing him carefully. "Ho was one of them, sure enough." agreed the detective. "But young heir esses ain't being kidnaped days like these out of hotels like this." "I may be mistaken," John assented wearily. "All 1 know of Mrs. Darnell is from occasional words dropped by Wilkerson. But 1 suppose we might get a clew as to where they went any way." After some search of the long line of taxis they came to one which the de tective identified as the one Mrs. Dar nell had taken the night before. "Driver, take us where you did those fares who were In such a hurry last night." the detective ordered. The chauffeur shook his head. "You can search me for the address," he re turned. "There wasn't any." The driver leaned out from his seat and went on earnestly: "You know how they jumped In and we rolled off. Well, It seemed It was a case of life and death, according to the woman, and I stepped on the machine and hastened some toward the North Pa cific hospital. But when we got into Chinatown one of the men hailed me and told me to. drive just as be said. He got out here In front with me, and when we reached a certain spot they all beat it" "Can you take ns to that spot?" "I was just wondering to myself whether I could find it," was the re sponse. "But I'll try." [To He Continued Wednesday] IIOItSK TIIIKF CAITI'RKD Hagerstown, Md., Dec. 28.—Deputy Sheriff Albert Cranipton bad an ex citing chase after Tt. K.
