CHAPTER IX.
The Advent of Creegan.
WALTIin tou;rht the library lm
nipdintoly after dinner, to
smoke a ml to brood over va
rious personal concerns of

mood-i were tickle to siifh an extent
tint be hnrdly knew from hour to hour
trbother he were x'.art or wr?tt bed. Al
ways, ut the b:fk of liis tbcusht, there
jvas the haunting dread of the de
tertives that sought his trail.
On si'-r-ouut of them he was grateful
for this refuse. I?ut. on the other hand,
lif experienced a prowinp a'.frm over
this intimate relation with Wain
wrisrht, the renowned foe cf criminals
FUcii as he. There was somethins mon
strous to Waller in the faet that he.
the thief, was here losing openly, if
not boldly, as the brother-in-law of the
most effective district Httoruey New
York bad ever possessed, whose popu
larity thus Lviired bad fair now to
make the man the thief executive of
the state. This sisswiation with Wain
wripbt l:opt the youtli In a coustaut
tremor of apprehension lesr the worst
befall. lie expostulated in vain with
AiHlrpw, who treated bim and his r
piiDiPDt vh a yalliiiz contempt. His
fTsjt to the disdnin of the Master lay
in tl)eatent udniiration accorded him
by Helen Wain wrinlit. the fireat man's
Fister. who. to be sure, was merely a
6 hooijrirl of sixteen, on her Taxation,
yet the heiress to a tidy fortune and
remarkably pretty, if not especially
burden with brains. With something
of liT brother's jmwer of idealization,
though with a less worthy nubje,t. sh
was able to see in Walter excellence
eiioui;h to make him the hero of her
frst foolish maidenly dreaming.
On liis part. Walter, drawn lv he
Canity face and demure manner, was
Inclined to think 1 hat he niisrht make
lumself a pafe position in the world
end secure a satisfactory living with
iut work by murryinsr this bread uud
butter miss. I'nfortunately, however, J
be soon found that the carrying out of
his d"si-ii was beset with ditlicultJes.
for somehow latterly it seemed that
he was never to see Ilrlcn for a mo
m tit alone, mtn-h less gveu pHr
tutiity for nv t-lnjiemciit viu were the
preliminary arrangements made.
As he mviitatcl now. it: v.-as clear
t" biiu that he must apleii' directly to
l,u-ene for aid in the exec Jt ion of his
puijinso. 1'ndcr this necessity lie was
irritated by the fact that already, un
der Andrew's compulsion, he had set
lunise!f before his putative sister in a
remarkably bad light. bbi had been
for ed to pretend financial distress to
li'-r and beg her to help hi ji in saving
Lin from exposure and disgrace. Nat
urally, to save the possibility of bar
ing Hi" whole hateful truth to her hus
band. Mrs. Wainwright had yielded to
hi- demands and supplied him repeat
edly with money without lier husband's
knowledge. The fact increased her
pelf contempt. Itut Walter's sole con
cern in the mntter was dissatisfaction
over the effect these transactions must

plan to possess Helen.
Walter scowled as he reflectel on
the fat that this financial intriguing
with Lu'-en was altogether an annoy
etr p to him since even th? money in
volved did not remain with Lim, but
wr.s invariably turned over to Andrew
by that taskmaster's orders. "Devil-1-h
poor pickings. I call It!" was the
thief's unspoken comment, with a
pnoer. Anyhow, he decided he must
inrike the effort to enlist Lucene's as
f4tance in his wooing of Helen. With
this resolve he looked up to lehold
1'arker in the doorway.
"A gentleman to see yoa, sir," was
thf announcement.
Walter was astonished and alarmed,
for he knew of no acquaintance likely
to be within miles of this neighbor
hood nud certainly none 8 ware of his
identity as Walter Blouct Put le-foi-p
hf could deterniino an . answer to
the waiting servant Andrew himself

I'ardon me, sir," he said In tones
of the utmost respect; "but perhaps
yu Lad better leave the n atter to me.

I- re -lily not of the least importance,
sir." II? gave n low order to Parker.
"Oh. ail rijht. if yon say so." Wal

relief he felt In learning that this was
probably another of his tyrant's con
trivances rather than a pursuer on his
own trail. "Who is the jruy?" he ask
ed, as Tarker disappeared after the
low spoken command from his em
ployer. Andrew regarded the young man
with wintery eyes, through narrow
lids.
"That," be uaid gently, but with nn
inflection that was convincing, "is one
question too many." Then, he turned
slowly, and went out f the room, un
mindful of the scowling thief, who
cringed helpless under his domination.
Andrew, after leaving the library, as
cended directly to his own room at
the top of the house and there found
the caller whom Parker had Just guid
ed thither.
"My eye! the somewhat rough ap
Iearing individual remarked amiably,
as the Master Mind entered. "This is
some swell joint, hey 2"
"Mr. Woinwrigut will be pleased
with your commendation, sir," An-

bitual senility.
"Say, don't you pet fresh, old gee

"And. aaybow. why am I tucked up
here in ;he attic. What's the game,
eh 7" He stood for a moment, blink
ing thoughtfully at the butler of the
household, and a sudden recollection
assailed him. "Waiuwright's just got

"Yes, Kir," Andrew replied, still in his
nssumed character. "Mr. WaLnwright
was married about six months ago.
sir."
"Some class to him!" the caller de
clared, with much respect, if little ad
miration. "Married and nominated
for governor all in the same month.
That's going some, lelieve me!" lie
nodded toward the window, aud there
was a noticeable flpprebeusiveusfis in
his voice when next he spoke. "Say,
'bo, what's that big building off across
there on the hill? Ain't no jail 'round
here, as ever I heard."
"No. sir," Andrew said. ,"That is the
Towhattan Asylum For the Insane, un
der the direction of the celebrated: lr.
Forbes." Abruptly a change came into
the manner of his address, and he
siwke to the stockily built mail facing
him with an incisive directness that
caused the sharpened featcres of his
listener to. express a new. suspicious
alertness. "You are from Chicago,
sir?"
"What1 that to your the fellow
snarled, bis small eyes lowering.
Andrew wasted not time.
"Your - nome is Creegan." . he said
coldly. "You were sent here by Mr.
Whltcomb."
"Well, now. Mr. Kuow-it-all." was
the insolent retort, "maybe I was. and
maybe 1 wasn't. What's the answer?"
"You were to inquire for Walter

i$m;;mmnm

it
VfU a sign." Andrew set the fingers
of his right band to the familiar sym
bol of protection against the evil eye.
The heavy face of the visitor relaxed
instantly, and he breathed a sigh of re
lief. "So you're the guy!" he growled.
"I'm the man. yes," Andrew cor
rected. Creegan went close and spoke in a
whisper, his face lighted now with a
glow of avarice.
"Listen!" he said rapidly. "The boss
said this was a pipe, that there'd be
ten thousand in the haul for mer and
even if I was pinched they wouldn't
domnything to me. That gets my nan
ny. Say, is it on the level V"
"It Is."
"Just the same." Creegan insisted
violently, "you got to show me. I tell
you 1 ain't a bit stuck on it. Yep. you
got to show me. If it's such a pipe
why did you send nil the way to Chi
cago for me when New York's full of
smooth propositions just askin for the
chance?"
Andrew made no answer in words,
but went to his bureau, from which he
took out a japanned tin box. which be
unlocked with a key from his ring. He
brought forth a photograph, which he
passed to the curious Creegan.
A single glance sufficed the man. He
stored at Andrew in stark amazement.
"Well. I'll be !" he gasped.
"Maggie Maggie Flint!" He regarded
the photograph again. astounded.
"Say." be demanded curtly, looking up
again, "how did that come here?"
Andrew put forth his hand, possessed
himself of the photograph and restored
it to the box. which he carefully locked
and replaced in the drawer before an
swering: then at 'ast lie turned to the
impatiently waiting Creegan. whose
thick lips were twitching from nerv ous
excitement.
"Now suppose," be said evenly, "for
example, that you planned to steal
some valuable jewels you have heard
Spoken of?"
Creegan's eyes grew furtive.
"Like the Wninwright sparklers,
her?"
"And let us suppose further." An
drew continued imperturbably, "that
you were apprehended in the act."
The supposition appeared to discon
cert Creegan, if one might judge by
the thick furrows in his forehead and
tlie savage tightening of his Hps.
"Say, you." he grunted. "Just you
parade the kind of talk I know. Get
that?"
"Suppose you get pinched, collared."
Andrew amended tranquilly. "And.
furthermore, let us suppose that the
owner of the jewels was of an old and
honorable family and at this particular
time a nominee for high ofhee. Now,
do you think he would risk scandal by
prosecuting you if it so chanced that
you recognized in his wife some one
you had known in very different cir
cumstances, some one named, let us
say, Maggie Flint?"
A silence fell, in which Andrew stood
immobile, impassive, regarding his new
tool with a calm yet piercing scrutiny,
and Creegan rested ngape. his widened
eyes fast on the other, striving dumbly
to digest the bewildering fact that the
girl with whom he had wandered fond
ly in the streets of Chicago years be
fore was become in very truth the n::s
tress of this mansion. At last lie shook
his bead incredulously.
"No," he muttered, "it can't be Mag
giethe wife of that swell guy, Wain
wright!" "But it is!" Andrew retorted sharp
ly, and the words carried conviction.
"Gee! Maggie!" he mumbled con
fusedly. "Well, I'm a son of n gun!"
"I am to understand, then." the Mas
ter Mind suggested suavely, "that you
know the lady?"'
Creegan's dull face lightened instant
ly. Something of the bestiality bred
out of evil years fell from him.
"Do I? Why, I knew her from 'way
back. Guess sho come from pretty
good stock, though her old man was
down and out when I knew 'era. She
had darn poor pickin's. Maggie had.
Any other skirt with her looks would
have gone to the bad licketty split: but
not her! Worked iu factories and then
got a job after her father di?d as nurse
girl. Kept straighter'n a string ell thf
time. I got foolish over that kid my
self. Fd Just about made up my mind
to marry her when she was caught
with the goods and sent to stir. Never
could see why she did it. It wa'n't like
her to steal. I tried to find her when
she come out. but there wa'n't nothin'
doiu. And I was dippy over iter. Gee!"
he concluded sheepishly. "Can you see
me bein' dippy over a skirt?"
Andrew then said:
"And. if you should be caught, for n
further defense you might perhaps sny
that robbu-y was not your intent, but
that instead you were here for a meet
ing with the lady at her request."
Once again Creegan gaped sheer
nmazement Then, swiftly, the light of
understanding twinkled in fcis little
eyes.
"I'm wise, 'bo I'm wise!" he chuck
led, with a villainous smirk. "Now.
where do they keep the sparklers?"
Forthwith Andrew entered into a de
tailed explanation concerning the plan
of the house, with iarticular reference
to the library, in an alcove of which
the safe was aet.
"And now," be concluded, "as to the
time tonight w hen you shou ld start op
erations, I have only to make a sug
gestion. This room of mine, as you
perceive, is situated in the cupola of
the house, w ith windows on each side.
3u its way t'a a sort of beacon at
night. The lodgekeeper says that when
I put out my light he is sure that every
one else in the house is sleeping."
"I got ye. Steve I got ye!" Creegan
declared. Then, in another moment,
he spoke with a half shamed eager
ness: "Say, she. didn't send for raw.
did she?"
' "That is a lending question." was tbp
anjwer, irith ' a noncommittal smile.

That's a leading question."
"I shall put out piy ligl.t tonight prob
ably :iIout - o'clock."
'Ys. yes!'' Creegan a greet!, hastily.
"I got all that. Hut aber.t lier, now:
lo you think there's a chance of her
Kkippin' out with me? What?"
"A true loer should never be dis
count god." caMe the cr. pti'.' reply. As
lie spoke. Andrew opened the door,
and motioned that his visitor should
leave tho room. "Till - o'clock," he
said.

he is the proud possessor of a fine

GRAPHIC DESCRIPTION
OF CHICAGO'S GREAT
EST CATASTROPHE
Monte Streight, who is employed as
an express messenger of the Adams
Express company, running out of
Chicago, was in the city yesterday for
a visit between trains with his par
ents, Mr. and Mrs. O. M. Streight,
and gives a very graphic picture of
the great tragedy that has plunged
all Chicago in mourning over the
death of hundreds of men, women and
children on the ill-fated Eastland,
which sank Saturday afternoon at the
entrance of the Chicago river. Mr.
Streight states that for many blocks
the streets leading to the river and
the scene of the sinking of the boat
were thronged with thousands of
frantic people, all eager to reach the
river in hopes of receiving word of
their loved ones. All day and night
the rescue work was carried on and
the bodies of the drowned passengers
filled every vacant room in the vi
cinity of the tragedy. Sentiment was
very high in Chicago, Mr. Streight
states, in regard to the Eastland be
ing allowed to act as an excursion
boat, as it had been condemned two
years ago at Cleveland and forced off
of the Lake Erie service and was then
brought to Chicago and used in de
fiance of this fact. At the time Monte
left Chicago the estimate cf the dead
and missing ranged from 1,500 to
2,000.
