ed to the hack of his head, and an
evening dress shirt front gleamed out
through his open overcoat. Ill- face
was gaunt and swarthy, scored with
deep, mil ago lines. In his hand ho ear
rtcd what appeared to he a stick, hut
as he laid It down upon the lloor It gavo
a metallic clang. Then from the pocket
of his overcoat ho drew a bulky object,
mid ho busied himself In Home task
which ended with a loud, sharp click,
as If u spring or bolt had fallen Into
Its place. Still kneeling upon tho lloor,
he bent forward and threw all his
weight and strength upon somo lover,
with tho result that there came a long,
whirling, grinding noise, ending once
more In a powerful click. He straight

he held In his hand was a sort of a

Mantling clear at the end of his fore
sight. I'or an Instant he was rigid
and motionless. Then his linger tight
ened on the trigger. There was a
strange, loud whir, and a long, silvery
tinkle of broken glass. At that Instant
Holmes sprang like a ttger on to tho
marksman's back and hurled him tint
upon hU face. Ho was up again In a
moment, and with convulsive strength
he seized Holmes by tho throat, but I
struck him on the head with the butt
of my roiolvor, and he dropped again
upon the door. I fell upon him, and as
I held hlo my comrade blew a shrill
call upon a uhlstle. There was tho
clatter of running feet upon the pave
incut, and two policemen In uniform,
with one plain clothes detective, rushed
through the front entrance and Into the
loom
"That .ion, I.estradoV" said Holmes.
"Yes, Mr Holmes. I took the Joli

We had all risen to our feet, our prls
oner breathing hard, with a stalwart
constable on each slile oi Mm. Already
n few loiterers had begun to collect In
the stns't. Holmes stepped up to tho
window, leased It and dropped the
blinds. I.estrndo had produced two
caudles, and the policemen bad un
covered their lanterns, 1 was able
nt last to have a good look at our prls
oner.
It was a tremendously virile and yet
sinister face which was turiuil toward
us. With tho brow of a philosopher
ubovo and the jaw of a sensualist be
low, the man must haio started with
great capacities for good or for evil.
Hut one could not look upon his cruel
Id no o,i os, with their drooping, cynical
lids, or upon tho lloreo, aggressive uoe
and the threatening, deep lined brow
without reading nature's plainest dan

Tho colonel still stared nt my friend
like a man In n trance. "You cunning,
cunning flout!!" was all that ho could
nay.
"I huvo not Introduced you yet," mild
Holmes. "This, gentlemen, Is Colonel

The lloreo nl I man said nothing, but
still glared at my companion. With
his savage cyea and bristling mustache
ho was wonderfully like a tiger him
self. "I wonder that my very simple strat

Haiti HoltncM. "It must bo very familiar
to you. Have you not tethered u young

pointed around "are my other guns,

Colonel Moron sprang forward with
a snarl nf rage, but tho constables
dragged htm back. Tho fury upon his
face was terrible to look nt.
"I confess that you had one small
surprise for me," said Holmes. "I did
not anticipate that you would yourself
make use nf this empty house ami this
convenient front window. I hud Imag

"Not so, l.estrade. I do not propose

Haw, It Is true, an unwonted tidiness,
but tho old landmark note all In their

and the acid stained, deal topsd table.
There upon u shelf was tho row of
formidable scrapbooks and books of
reference which, mniir of our fellow elt
l7.eus would haio been so glad to burn.
Tho diagrams, the violin case and tho
pls' rack even the Persian slipper
which contained the tobacco- all met
my eyes as I glanced round me. There
were two occupants of tho room one,
Mrs, Hudson, who beamed upon us

Important a part In the evening's nil
ventures, it was a wax colored model
of my friend s admirably done that
it was a perfect facsimile. It stood on
a small pedestal table with an old
dressing gown of Holmes' so draped
round It that tho Illusion from the
street was absolutely perfect.
"I hope you preserved all precautious,
