Joshakawa shrugged his shoulders compassionately. “A poor, half-witted hoy, who, with what mind he still possesses, follows the traditions of our people and would sac rifice himself for his friend.” Yotomoi restrained by several of the younger men, nodded proudly. The ser geant looked from Yotomo to Joshakawa and then to Hironari, and then frowned angrily, “I will hold every one of you!” he de clared. "I believe you're all in this. And you”—he fixed a glare on Joshakawa's imperturbable countenance —“you know a lot more than you have told.” A rustle at the doorway caught his ear, and he turned just in time to see Ko bohashi disappearing with Teri. The Jap, not making sufficient allowance for the promptness of the police, and experienc ing rather more difficulty with the young lady than he had anticipated, had de cided to take her to the house, where she could be dealt with quietly. The sergeant had stationed no guard at the main en trance,. and he did not know the police were on the premises until he opened the door of the library. “One moment, Madame!” called the sergeant sharply.

She was trembling and her eyes were wide with terror at the sight of the police. “My God! What has happened?” she cried. “Whom do you want to see?” demanded the sergeant, coining up close to her. She gazed wildly about the room, but did not answer. “Speak—quick!” cried the policeman, harshly. Teri stared at Tokoramo and half held out her arms toward him. “Tokoramo!” she began piteously. “Which one?” demanded the sergeant, throwing a glance over his shoulder Joshakawa glided in front of Tokoramo. “Hironari has chocked your friend. She is dead!” he said, brutally, “Hlona dead!” gasped the girl in a horrified whisper. • “Yes,” said the sergeant, grimly. “Oh, my God —no!’’ screamed the girl. “Tokoramo! Tokoramo!” She covered her face with her hands and burst into sobs that were like screams. • “Come!” cried the sergeant, shaking her arm. “Tell me what you know! Were you acquainted with the dead girl?” “My God!’’ moaned Teri. “I don’t know anything! lllona, lllona! She was my friend —my only friend! 1 loved her! I loved her! She is dead!” “Come, madame!” exclkimed the ser geant. with 'something of a softening <)f THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS- TUESDAY. MAY 14. 19T» his harsha manner. “Try to calm your self. This is no time for tears We must know’ what you know’.” Tokoramo started forward with a hoarse cry. But a strong hand closed on his lips and a dozen strong hands restrained him. The scuffle was over before the sergeant could turn. “Which of these men was your friend's friend?” insisted the sergeant. The girl only moaned and sobbed as she leaned heavily against the doorpost. The Scheme Succeeds. “Come, my girl! Answer —or you will be made to!” “Oh, I am sick!” sobbed Teri “Take me away! Take me away!” The sergeant put his arm around her for support, and spoke with rough kind ness. “Don’t be afraid, my girl! Answer my question! Which of these men loved your friend?*’ “Tell the truth—tell the truth!” cried Tokoramo, hoarsely. Hironari slipped out into the foreground. “I did it.” he said. Teri turned to him with horror-stricken eyes. The sergeant shook her gently. “Speak up! Ts this the man?” Teri looked from Hironari to Tokoramo and slowly raised her hand, huddled fear fully in the sergeant’s arms. In that position he could see neither of the men. She pointed quickly at Tokoramo and then buried her face in the policeman’s arms. But at that same Instant, or per haps a fraction before, Joshakawa pusfied ; Hironari out in front of Tokoramo. The ■ serpeant turned in time to see the ac- I ci;sing finger pointing at the boy. He re ‘ leased the girl and nodded to his men. “That is our man. all right!” he de clared. “Arrest him!” Hironari followed one of the policemen lout of the room. The sergeant lingered for a moment, and ordered the other to remain on guard. As he drew on his gloves he addressed the others. “1 will not take you with me.” he said. “You will all remain here in the custody of this ifficcr until we receive instruc tions from our superiors.” And he stamped out. The remaining policeman took up his station in the bed room. “See that nothing is touched and that i no one leaves this house until the coro ner comes!” were the sergeant’s orders, i And as the last glint of uniform disap i peared from view a smile of satisfaction went around t?e room. But one lurched I heavily across the divan and his cry of agony rang through the silent house: “lllona! lllona!” The Stoic. Lindener was one of those children of the world who seldom miss seeing a sun rise. because they never think of bed until the workers of tl>s busy hive of ours are on the streets in the morning. Consequently he did not hear of the murder until late in the afternoon. He was taking his first drink of cognac I in a case when he learned of it, and he spent his last mark for a cab to take him to Tokoramo* s house. When he arrived there he was as completely insane as a mentally balanced man can become. Fortunately for Tokoramo. Joshakawa and Dr. Omayi were with him when the muscular and frantic German burst into the library, calling the name of his be loved in a voice to make the walls trem ble. ’rhe three Japs received him as coolly and politely as they had d’one when he called the night before. » “Tell me it isn’t true.” he bellowed, standing in ’he middle of the floor with clenched fists and glaring around him like a crazed bull. Joshakawa raised his eye brows. “What do you mean, Herr Lindener?” he asked quietly. “lllona! lllona!” • Tokoramo. his head in his hands, bent t over his desk and bit his lips to keep I back a moan of anguish. Joshakawa, ' standing facing the visitor, shrugged his ! slioqlders slightly and spread out his I palms in a gesture of gently sympathetic i resignation. | I '“I be woman is dead.” he said “It is most deplorable. 1 “Dead!! 2 -echoed Lindener in a terrible i voice. “Oh. God!” He raised his clinch ! ed lists as if to call down a malediction I on the Japanese and all their work—-on himself and all the world. Then his eyes i seemed to reel in his head. He swayed I and staggered to the table like a man I in a deadly illness. •ft is very terrible.” said Joshakawa. “But —the woman was not immortal. We. too, have a grief! Dr. Omayi slipped noiselessly over to the liquor stand and a moment later held a glass of cognac up to the half-con scious man "Drink this, sir." he ordered with a professional air. Mechanically, Lindener took the glass of spirits and drained it. Slowly he set down the glass and drew a deep breath that was like the gasp of a dying man. Tokoramo shuddered for a sound that was like It still echoed ter ribly in his ears. The powerful brandy quickened the mind of the ariist that had been numbed by the shock. The dull, glazed look in his eyes was gone when he raised them from the door and they burned with a wild light as he fixed them on Toko ramo’s bowed figure. "Tokoramo, my friend'." he said, in a low voice that was all the more terrible for its calm. "Tell me what has hap pened. Where is lllona?" Tokoramo did not heed, but before his sfler.ee was noticeable, Joshakawa had taken the burden of explaining upon him se f. "It has been a very dreadful affair, Herr Lindener." he said gravely. "You have the utmost sympathy of all of us anti we throw ourselves upon your mercy, since it was one of our countrymen that lias brought this terrible grief upon you." Lindener's fists were clenched hard and his whole figure strained with the effort lie made to listen quietly: but he did not interrupt.
