! A RACE WITH RUIN.
A RACE WITH RUIN. By HEADON HILL, Author of "Guilty Gold," "The Queen of Night," "By a Hair's Breadth," "The Peril of the Prince," &c., &c. CHAPTER XIII, Shadows in,Beaker-street Inspector Croal was a rapid reasoner, and, having recovered from the shock of finding that the beautiful Miss Beauchamp, whom he had met in the best society." at Bar- field, was engaged in sending out snips" from a sordid room off Fleet-street, he at once assumed that Sir Charles Roylance was aware of the fact. And the further question at once arose: Had Sir Charles any knowledge—above all, a. cuilty knowledge-of the crime in the gorse ? One thing was very certain. It would be worse than useless now to make a direct appeal for information to these people. Having come to this decision, rather than run the risk of recognition by Nance, he cut short his visit and took his departure, after exchanging a few racing commonplaces with the blind prophet. "Broken-down swells!" was his thoughtful comment as he crossed the landing under the skylight, beyond which another broken- down swell" was cowering and listening, a sight of whom in that place by the detective would have altered the course of this story and made the difference between life and death to some. Ah, Nance Beauchamp! Nance Beauchamp! You little thought when you practised your ruse for getting Lord Hooligan out of the way how far you went towards defeating your ends; and what a load of sorrow you would have saved yourself and others if you had waited till Croal's keen eyes had had a chance of connecting your father's brutal partner with the brutal honeymooner" of the Angler's Rest! She came tripping tip the stairs with her empty basket, and found her father very pleased with himself. If that was really a detective he got nothing out of me about Hooligan," the old gentleman chuckled. Much as I should like to see his lordship put to confusion, honour forbade my giving him away. But how did you come to know a policeman by sight, my child?" He-Inspector Croal-was pointed out to me the other day." I suppose he came to see if we were running our business honestly," said the former owner of Beauchamp Grange, proudly conscious of his integrity. "You had better call that cubbish scion of the peerage down, now that the bogey has gone away." Nance assented, and, taking the chair to stand on, unfastened the skylight; but it waa not till he had been trebly assured that there was no stranger in the office that Hooligan would descend. At last he ewung himself on to the landing, haggard of eye and dishevelled as to his garments. Has-has the fellow gone ?" he queried, shooting furtive glances at the door. I have said eo three times already," replied Nance contemptuously. "I cannot tell, of course, whether he will return." Well, then, I'll be off for a drink, and I sha'n't be back—to-day, at any rate," Hooligan muttered: But see bere, Miss," he added savagely, if you play hanky-panky with the business because I don't happen to be on hand to look after it, there'll be trouble. Under- stand that." With which he turned and went down the stairs without entering the office, relieving Nance from the fear that his suspicions might be aroused on finding that she had posted the letters during his concealment. But now that he was gone, and she knew that so far her stratagem had succeeded, reaction set in, and she asked herself to what lengths she would go in preserving silence on what she had seen and heard in the gorse-patch. She was appalled by the perilous path on which she had entered, but she tried to comfort herself with the feeble casuistry that she had no intention of defeating the ends of justice. When she should have rectified the injury done to Sir Charles Roylance, and was, therefore, able to justify herself to him, it would be time enough to make the revelations. To inform the police at present would entail exposures which she simply could not face, but which she would force herself to endure as soon as Parker's Lightning Finals" no longer meant ruin for Sir Charles. She would not mind being known as the girl from Parker's" then-let the world say what it might. The remainder of the day passed quietly, and Nance took advantage of Hooligan's absence to substitute her own circular announcing Starlight's breakdown to all subscribers as applications came in by successive posts. When she locked the door of the office at six o'clock and guided her father's tottering footsteps down the stairs she Jfrlt all the elation of a general who has started a prosperous campaign, but she did not know that Inspector Croal, in the garb of an elderly City man, and with his dogged jaws covered with a trimly-clipped false beard, was seated on the roof of the *bus that took them home. To Mr. Croal's matured experience it was mere child's play to shepherd the girl and her father to the dreary thoroughfare. They got down at the corner of Beaker- street, and Nance was far too busy with her blind charge to observe the persistent "shadow" that followed them to Frank Bremner's door. The inspector walked on to the end of the street, shouldering his umbrella with the air of a born City man, and then turned back with a sigh of satisfaction. The spirit of the cnase was on him, and the chase had led him to within a few doors of the public- house which the murdered woman's brother had mentioned as his house of call. That was a combination that excited infinite surmise, and Mr. Croal bent his steps to the Union Jack with keen anticipation. As he repassed Bremner's house Bremner himself came out and also made for the same destination, walking so fast that by the time Croal turned into the saloon bar he was already in conversation with Mr. Tidmarsh. Croal smiled inwardly as he saw the lawyer's clerk palm" a slip of paper into the bookmaker's hand. The detective planted himself as near as possible to Bremner and Tidmarsh in order to prove the efficacy of his disguise, and soon gathered, from the bookmaker's vacant sta.re, that he was not recognised. He could not, however, get .quite close to the pair by rea.son, of a young man who lounged at the counter between him and them. Croal called for a whisky and soda, and while sipping it listened hard to what passed between Tidmarsh and the man who had come out of the house to which he had shadowed his quarry. But the talk was all about racing, and the inspector was on the point of making himself known to Tidmarsh when something caused him to stop. The young man next him had quietly, touched Bremner on the shoulder. Hullo, Mr. Skinner! You ia these parts i again?" exclaimed the clerk, turning round. I didn't know you out of livery." "Got a night off," said the laconio groom. "Have something with me, sir?" Bremner accepted the invitation, and naturally began to talk with the man who was treating him. Croal, himself a past- master in the art of "pumping," soon saw that the smart young ma.n was trying to steer the conversation to a certain subject. and he pricked his ears still further when he discovered that the subject was the girl in whom he himself was interested. "Saw her the other day when you were driving, through the street, eh?" said Bremner drily. Yes, she's a nice girl, and she and her father lodge with us. Not your sort and my sort, old man. Regular swell folk, but none too much cash. You don't mean to say you've gone and lost your heart to her on eight?" "Something of the kind." Skinner admitted. "I was thinking, Mr. Bremner," he went on in his level, passionless tone, "that if you'd let me drop in as your friend of a Sunday afternoon I might run across her, perhaps." "Then, my boy, you'd better get that notion out of your head sharp," said the shiftless clerk with unwonted decision. "You might as well cry for the moon. Firstly, yott wouldn't have the ghost of a chance with her, because she's a lady born. Secondly, yon wouldn't see her if you did come to the houeft because she's taken to going out of town on Sundays to visit some swells up the river. She went last week, and I hear from the missus that she's going next. And thirdly, Mr. Skin- ner, with all due respect, I ain't the chap to annoy a girl lady or otherwise by making my humble abode a medium for shoving strangers on to her." "Oh, no offence," said Skinner. "I'm sorry I spoke." And, declining Bremner's invita- tion to "have another," he abruptly quitted the bar. "This is a pretty deep undercurrent," Mr. Croal murmured to himself. "Who can that chap be, I wonder? He's on the saane clue as myself—foxing after my slippery young lady, ajid there's precious little love at back of it. so far as he's concerned. If I'm not mis- taken, he got all he wanted in that piece of news about the Sunday trips up the river, or he wouldn't have cleared out so quick. Never asked her name, either, so he most have known that already." Mr. Croal finished his whisky, looked into the empty tumbler for inspiration, and frankly confessed to himself that he was in a fog. That was a. state of mind that always galled him, for to do him justice it seldom happened. To put an end to it he held out his hand to the big man on the stool. "Good-evening, Mr. Tidmarsh," he said. Mr. Tidmarsh, not recognising him, scruti- nised his palm for a betting slip, and, not finding one, gazed at him blankly, while Bremner winked at the barmaid in amiMe- ment. Tidmarsh was regarded as something of a joke at the Union Jack. "Lord, but you're well got up," murmared the bookmaker, as Croal went close and revealed himself in a whisper. "Found any- thing?" "I've found this," the inspector replied, pro- ducing the blank sheet of notepaper which he had unearthed at the Angler's Rest. "Seen anything like it before?" Tidmareh's eyee lit up with swift wrath. "That lion!" he snarled. "Yes, I had a letter from her on paper like that—the time she was away in the country, yon know." "Did you notice the postmark?" But Mr. Tidmarsh had not been so obser- vant. As he pointed out, there had been "no oall for such cuteness" then. He had thought that his sister was enjoying a happy honey- moon. Resisting the bookmaker's importunate curio- sity, Croal replaced the paper, and was about to fish for an introduction to Bremner, with a view to finding out who had been the young fellow who had evinced such gun interest in his lodger, when a diversion occurred. A dainty, flaxen-haired little maiden of some six summers, with a. clean white pinafore over a threadbare black dress, peeped shyly into the bar, and catching sight of Bremner, came forward with greater confidence. At the moment the clerk was ohatting to the barmaid, who drew his attention to the child. Hullo, poppet!" he cried, turning to the child. "Anything the matter?" "Please, daddy, will you come home, mummy says. The man in podeshun has tummled in the Are and set alight to hisself." (To be Continued.)
AN EFFECTUAL DISGUISE. I
AN EFFECTUAL DISGUISE. I A good story is told of a man named William Potts, who is engaged as a window-cleaner at a certain big hotel in London. One morning, William, instead of doing his work, was amusing himself by reading the paper, &ad, as bad luck would have it, the manager looked in. "What's this?" he said. William was dumbfoundered. "Pack up your things and go," said the manager. So poor William Potts went to the office, drew the money which was owing to him, and then went upstairs and put on hie Sunday clothes. Coming down, he went to say good- bye to some of the other servants, and there he happened to run across the manager, who didn't recognise him in his best coat. "Do you want a job?" asked the manager. "Yes, sir," said William. "Can yon clean windows?" "Yes, sir." "You look a handy sort of a chap. I only gave the last man twenty-two shillings, bat I'll give you twenty-five." "Thank you, sir," said William; and in half-an-hour he was back in the same old room, cleaning the window this time, and not reading the paper.
I.TOO MUCH FOR THE FARMER.
TOO MUCH FOR THE FARMER. A quack doctor stood on his wagon at a street corner selling his "cure all." A group of people gathered about him, and he under. took to explain to them the anatomy of the throat. "My dear friends," he began, "per. haps yon don't know it, but tkiere are two passages that go from the back of the month to the stomach. One is called the oesophagus and the other is the oesophagi. Now, the solid victuals goes down the oesophagus and the liquids down the oesophagi. Over the top of the holes is a cover with a hinge in the middle, and when you swallow beefsteak the little door over the oesophagus flies open and the little door over the oesophagi drops dowm. and vice versa when you take a drink of coffee." This description proved too much for a farmer who stood on the edge of the crowd. Shaking with laughter, he remarked in a loud tone: "Gosh, bat those doors inango flipper-flopper when a feller has bread mmf milk.
