CHAPTER XXXIII.
At the Foot of the Stairs.
As 1 drove rapidly up to the house
from Casanova station in the hack. I
saw the detective Burns loitering ,
across Hp street from the Walker
place. So Jimieson was putting the 1
screws on— lightly now, but ready to,
give them a twist or two, I felt cer-
tain, very soon.
The house was quiet. Two steps of
the circular stall ease had been pried
off without result, and beyond a see-I
ond message from Gertrude that Hal j
sev insisted on coming home and they
would arrive that night there was i
nothing nev Mr Jamieson, having]
failed to locate the secret room, had
gone to the village. I learned after
wards that he called at Dr. .Walker's,
under pretense of an attack of acute
Indigestion, and before he left had in
quired about the evening trains to the
city. He said he had wasted a lot
of time on the case, and a good bit of
the mystery was in my imagination!
The doctor was under the impression
that the house was guarded day and
night. Well, give a place a reputation
like that, and you don't need a guard
at all -thus Jamieson. And sure
enough lute in the afternoon, the two
private detectives, accompanied by
Mr. Jamieson, walked down the main
street of Casanova and took a city
bound train.
That they got off at the next station
and walked hack again to Sunnyside
at dusk was not known at the time
Personally, I knew nothing of either
move; I had other things to absorb
me at tfuft tine
Kiddy brought me some tea while I
rested after my trip, and on the tray
was a small book from the Casanova
library It was < ailed ' The Unseen
\Vorld" and had a cheerful cover, on
which a haii dozen sheeted figures
linked hands around a headstone

vertical iron ladder, fastened to the
wall outside of the ballroom, and per-
haps IL' feet high. The 12 feet looked
hort from below, but they were dif-
hcult to climb. I gathered my silk
gown around me. and succeeded final-
ly in making the top of the ladder.
Once there, however. I was complete-
ly out of breath. I sat down, my feet
on the top rung, and put my hair-pins
in more securely, while the wind bel-
lowed m\ dressing-gown out like a
sail I had torn a great strip of the
silk loose, and now I ruthlessly fin-
ished the destruction of my gown by
jerking it free and tying it around my
head.
Luckily, the roof was flat, and I
was able to go over every inch of it. Hut
tin' result was disappointing; no trap-
door revealed itself, no glass window;
nothing but a couple of pipes two
inches across, and standing perhaps
IS inches high and three feet apart,
with a cap to prevent rain from en
tering and raised to permit the pas-
sage of air 1 picked up a pebble
from the roof and dropped it down,
listening with my ear at one of the |
pipes. I could hear it strike on some-
thing with a sharp, metallic sound,
but it was impossible for me to tell
how far it had gone.
I gave up finally and went down the
ladder again, getting in through the
ballroom window without being ob-
served. I went back at once to the
trunkroom, and. sitting down on a
box, gave my mind, as consistently as
I could, to the problem before me. If
the pipes in the roof were ventilators
to the secret room, and there was 110
trap-door above, the entrance was
probably in one of the two rooms be-
tween which it lay—unless, indeed,
the room had been built, and the open-
ing closed With a brick and mortar
wall.
The mantel fascinated me. Made of
wood and carved, the more I looked
the more I wondered that I had not
noticed before the absurdity of such
a mantel in such a place. It was cov-
ered with scrolls and panels, and fin-
ally, by the merest accident, I pushed
one of the panels at the side. It
moved easily, revealing a small brass
knob.
It is not necessary to detail the
fluctuations of hope and despair, and
not a little fear of what lay beyond,
with which I twisted and turned tfie
knob. It moved, but nothing seemed
to happen, and then I discovered the
trouble. I pushed the knob vigorous
ly to one side, and tlie whole mantel
swung loose from the wall almost a
foot, revealing a cavernous space be-
yond.
I took a long breath, closed the
door from the trunkroom into the hall
-thank heaven, I did not lock it—and
pulling the mantel-door wide open, I
stepped into the chimney-room. I had
time to get a hazy view of a small
portable safe, a common wooden table
and a chair—then the mantel door
swung to, and clicked behind me. 1
stood quite still for a moment, in the
darkness, unable to comprehend what
had happened. Then 1 turned and beat
furiously at the door with my fists.
It was closed and locked again, and
my fingers in the darkness slid over a
smooth wooden surface without a sign
of a knob.
I was furiously angry—at myself, at
the mantel-door, at everything. I did
not fear suffocation; before the
thought had come to me I had already
seen a gleam of light from the two
small ventilating pipes in the roof.
They supplied air, but nothing else.
The room itself was shrouded in
blackness.
I must have dozed off. 1 am sure
I did not faint. I was never more
composed in my life. I remember
. as
planning, if I were not discovered,
who would have my things. I knew
Liddy would want my heliotrope pop-
lin, and she's a fright in lavender.
Once or twice I heard mice in the par-
titions, and so 1 sat on the table, with
my feet on the chair. I' imagined I
could hear the search going on
through the house, and once some
one came into the trunkroom; I could
distinctly hear footsteps.
In the chimney! In the chimney!"
I called with all my might, and was
rewarded by a piercing shriek from
Liddy and the slam of the trunkroom
door.
1 felt easier after that, although the
room was oppressively hot and
enervating. I had no doubt the search
for me would now come in the right
direction, and after a little, I dropped
into a doze. How long I slept I do
not know.
It must have been several hours,
for I had been tired from a 9usy day,
and I waked stiff from my awkward
position. 1 could not remember
where I was for a few minutes, and
my head felt heavy and congested.
(Iradually I roused to my surround-
ings, and to the fact that in spite of
ventilators, the air was had and grow-
ing worse. 1 was breathing long,
gasping respirations, and my lace was
damp and ctamny. I must have been
there a long time, and the searchers
were probably hunting outside the
house, dredging the creek, or beating
the woodland. I knew that another
hour or two would find me uncon-
scious, and with my inability to cry
out would go my only chance of res-
cue. It was the combination of bad air
and heat, probably, for soma inade-
quate ventilation was coming through
the pipes. I tried to retain my con-
sciousness by walking the length of
the room and back, over and over, but
1 had not the strength to keep it up.
so I sat down 011 the table again, my
back against the wall.
The house was very still. Once my
straining ears seemed to catch a foot-
fall beneath me. possibly in my own
room. I groped for the chair from
the table, and pounded with it frantic-
ally on the floor. But nothing hap-
pened; I realized bitterly tiiat if the
sound was heard at all. no doubt it
was classed with the other tappings
that had so alarmed us recently.
And then—I heard sounds from be-
low me, in the house. There was a
peculiar throbbing, vibrating noise
that I felt rather than heard, much
like the pulsing beat of fire engines in
the city. For one awful moment I
thought the house was on fire, arid
every drop of blood in my body gath-
ered around my heart; then I knew. It
was the engine of the automobile, and
Halsey had cotne back. Hope sprang
up afresh. Halsey's clear head and
Gertrude's intuition might do what
Liddy's hysteria and three detectives
had failed in.
After a time T thought I had been
right. There was certainly something
going on down below; doors were
slamming, people were hurrying
through the halls, and certain high
notes of excited voices penetrated to
me shrilly. 1 hoped they were coming
closer, but after a time the sounds
died away below, and I was left to the
silence and heat, to the weight of the
darkness, to the oppression of walls
that seemed to close in on me and
stifle me.
The first warning I had was a
stealthy fumbling at the lock of the
mantel door. With my mouth open
to scream, I stopped. Perhaps the sit-
uation had rendered me acute, per-
haps it was instinctive. Whatever it
was, 1 sat without moving, and some,
tine outside, in absolute stillness, ran j
his lingers over the carving of the
thing in ti,.

mantel and—found the panel.
Now the sounds below redoubled;
from the clatter and jarring I knew
that several people were running up
the stairs, and as the sounds ap-
proached, 1 could even hear what they
said.
"Watch the end staircases!" Jamie-
son shouted. "Damnation—there's no
light here!" And then a second later.
"All together now. One — two —
three—"
The door into the trunkroom had
been locked from the inside. At the
second that it gave, opening against
the wall with a crash and evidently
tumbling somebody into the room, the
stealthy fingers beyond the mantel-
door gave the knob the proper im-
petus, and—the door swung open, and
closed again. Only—and Liddy al-
ways screams and puts her fingers in
her ears at this point—only now I
was not alone in the chimney room.
There was some one else in the d.irk-
ness, some one who breathed hard,
and who was so close I could have
touched him with my hand.
I was in a paralysis of terror. Out-
side there were excited voices and in-
credulous oaths. The trunks were
being jerked around in a frantic
search, the windows were thrown
open, only to show a sheer drop of 40
feet. And the man in the room with
me leaned against the mantel-door
and listened. His pursuers were" plain-
ly baffled; I heard him draw a long
breath, and turn to grope his way
through the blackness. Then—he
touched my hand, cold, clammy, death-
like.
A hand in an empty room! He drew
in his breath, the sharp intaking of
horror that fills lungs suddenly col-
lapsed. Beyond jerking his hand away
instantly, he made no movement. 1
think absolute terror had him by the
throat. Then he stepped back, with-
out turning, retreating foot by foot
from The Dread in the corner, and I
do not think he breathed.
Then, with the relief of snace be-
tween us, I screamed, ear-spnttingly,
madly, and they heard me outside.
"In the chimney!" I shrieked. "Be-
hind the mantel! The mantel!"
With an oath the figure hurled itself
across the room at me, and I
screamed again. In his blind fury he
had missed me; I heard him strike
the wall. That one time I eluded
him; I was across the room, and I had
got the chair. He stood lor a second,
listening, then—he made another rush
and I struck out with my weapon. I
think it stunned him, for I had a sec-
ond's respite when 1 could hear him
breathing, and some one shouted out-
side:
"We—can't—get—in. I low—does—it
open?"
But the man in the room had
changed his tactics. I knew he was
creeping on me, iach by inch, and 1
could not tell from where. And then
—he caught me. He held his hand
over my mouth, and I bit him. I was
helpless, strangling—and some one
was trying to break in the mantel
from outside. It began to yield some-
where, for a thin wedge of yellowish
light was reflected on tlie opposite
wall. When he saw that, my assailant
dropped me with a curse; then—the
opposite wall swung open noiselessly,
closed again without a sound, and I
was alone. The intruder was gone.
"In the next room!" I called wildly.
"The next room!" But the sound of
blows on the mantel drowned my
voice. By the time I had made them
understand, a couple of minutes had
elapsed. The pursuit was taken up
then, by all except Alex, who was de-
termined to liberate me. When I
stepped out into the trunkroom a free
woman again I could hear the chase
far below.
I must say, for all Alex's anxiety to
set me free, he paid little enough at-
tention to my plight. He jumped
through the opening into the secret
room and picked up the portable safe.
"I am going to put this in Mr. Hal-
sey s room, Miss 1 tines," he said, and
I shall send one of the detectives to
guard it."
1 hardly heard him. I wanted to
laugh and cry in the same breath—
to crawl into bed and have a cup of
tea, and scold Liddy, and do any of
the thousand natural things that I had
never expected to do again. And the
air! The touch of the cool night air
on my face!

Worried Over His Trousers.
The humors and tragedies of New
York East side life are delineated by
Frank Marshall White in an article in
Harper's Weekly. Master Jacob Ros-
enberg, eleven or twelve years of
age, was suffering from a broken leg.
"His supreme agony came, however,
when Dr. M. ripped up one sldo of
the juvenile trousers with a pair of
scissors to make room for bandages.
'My new pants! My new pants! He's
cutting my new pants!' Jacob
shrieked, and almost wriggled himself
out of the grasp of the policeman and
the driver in his efforts to prevent the
mutilation of his raiment. Ail the
way to his home in the ambulance the
boy bewailed his mangled trousers
more then he did his broken leg.

IAN LAND
AI AUCTION
GOVERNMENT WILL DISPOSE OF
PROPERTY OF INDIAN TRIBES
SALE BEGINS NOVEMBER I
Nearly Three Million Acres of Farm
and Forest Land in Oklahoma
To Be Sold
Washington. -All . the unallotted
lands of the Five Civilized Tribes of
Indians in Oklahoma, approximately
1.650,000 acres, and the forested area
in the Choctaw nation, amounting to
about 1,36a,000 acres, are to be sold
at public 'auction, according to a de-
cision reached by the secretary of the
interior, Monday.
The decision to sell these Indian
lands came as a result of the recent
visit of Secretary Ballinger and Com-
missioner of Indian Affairs Valentine
to Oklahoma; a study of the status
of the property right of the Five Civ-
ilized Tribes, and conferences with
President Taft.
Regulations have been promulgated
and the lands now are being adver-
tised for sale at public auction. They
will be sold by counties continuously
from Nov. 21, 1910, to March 1, 1911.
The total amount to be sold under
this decision is approximately 1,650,-
000 acres, divided as follows:
Seminole nation, 3,240 acres; divid-
ed into 110 tracts; Creek and Chero-
kee nations 114,000 acres in 4,000
tracts; and Choctaw and Chickasaw
nations 1,.">40,000 acres in 10,000 tracts.
The minimum price which will be
accepted is declared in each adver-
tisement, and the terms call for 25
per ceai at time of sale, 25 per cent
in six months and "»0 per cent within
IK months with interest at 6 per cent.
The sale of the forested area of the
Choctaw nation mill take place later,
it being necessary to m«! ® a new ap-
praisement.
Under the law these lands, which
aggregate about 1,365,000 acres, will
not be sold in tracts larger than 640
acres each .
The department will not be able to
close up all the tribal lands of the
Five Civilized Tribes until congress
makes provision lor the sale of the
coal and asphalt landu covered by
what are known as the segregated
lands.
40.000 Searching for Missing Balloon
Ottawa, Canada—A gigantic organ-
ized search was started Monday morn-
ing for the balloon America, which is
still missing. Approximately 100,000
persons are actively engaged in the
search. Farmers and traders through-
out the forests and desolated sections
of the country are being notified to bo
on a constant lookout.

Peary's Record Being Analyzed
New York—Two American geog-
raphers are analyzing Captain Peary's
evidence that he reached the north
pole, and a messenger has been sent
to Kurope to consult with Prof. En-
dreas (Salle, chief of the geodetic insti-
tute at Berlin, who after a year's
study, declared that Peary's records
and observations "were, in fact, in a
scientific sense, worthless." The
views of Prof. (Salle were conveyed
in a dispatch from Berlin. He firmly
believes, it was cabled, "that Peary
did not reach the pole" and on the
particular day mentioned, as the day
of the discovery, "the sun was too
low on the horizon to allow of accu-
rate observations," without using a
theodolite. Such information, it de-
veloyed, had already come to this
country to partisans of Dr. Cook.
ANOTHER
WOMAN
CURED
By Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound
Black Duck, Minn.—"About a year
ago I wrote you that I was sick and
could not do any of
my housework. My
sickness was called
Retroflexion. When
1 would sit down I
felt as if I could not
set up. I took

Consider This Advice.
Tfo woman should submit to a surgi-
cal operation, which may mean death,
until she has given Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, made exclusive-
ly from roots and herbs, a fair trial.
This famous medicine for women
has for thirty years proved to be the
most valuable tonic and invigoratorof
the female organism. Women resid-
ing in almost every city and town in
the United States bear willing testi-
mony to the wonderful virtue of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
It cures female ills, and creates radi-
ant, buoyant female health. If you
are ill, for your own sake as well as
those you love, give it a trial.

Will Not Name Successor
Clarlnda, Ia.—Governor B. F. Car-

noon, announced that he would not
appoint Senator Dolllver's successor,

said: "Under the law the governor

Government in Libel Suit
Washington. The final attempt of

Mr. Olsen's Offer Must Have Come At

Claim Agent,
Up in Minnesota Mr. Olsen had a

"We understand, of course, that the
deceased was a very docile and valu-

his most persuasive clalm-agentleman-

you and your family in your loss. But,
Mr. Olsen, you must remember this:
Your cow had no business being upon
our tracks. Those tracks are our pri-

them she became a trespasser. Tech-
nically speaking, you, as her owner,
became a trespasser also. But we
have no desire to carry the issue into
court, and possibly give you trouble.
Now, then what would you regard as
a fair settlement between you and the
railroad company?"
"Vail," said Mr. Olsen slowly, "Ay
