She went into the living room. hoping the bell would stop before she could reach the instrument. hoping it was a wrong number, and only faintly hoping it was Barney demanding further explanations. She said, "Hello." faintly. The rich voice of Stefan Zorane said, “Miss Porter. will you please come to my apartment at once on a matter of the mvst urgent 1m- portance?” She sighed. "I'll come at once," she said wearlly. She waited a moment, then telephoned for n taxicab. Barney Teel, entering his apart- ment saw the telegram lying on the floor a few inches inside the door. He opened it. "So sorry to disa/ppolnt Pippy?’ The reponter stared at the mes- sage and the color slowly left his face. He crumpled the sheet of paper into a small ball and hurled it across the room. He was trying to control a temper that had been driven. finally, tog far. He crossed the room almost at a run. snatch- ed up his hat and went out. He yelled at a, prowling taxicab, jumped 1n. slammed the door and gave the driver sally’: address. A half block from Sally's apart- ment he saw her cross the side- walk and enter a taxi. "Trail that cab," Barney said, Stefan Zorane was standing in the middle of the large green room, smoking one of his strange. twisted cigars, when sally arriv- ed. He was just a little tipsy, and he was in full possession of his faculties. He said in his firle melodious voice. "I em delighted to see you again. Seeing a girl like you only once in two days is not enough, Miss Porter." "Why." sally said sharply, "did you telephone me?" "I'm getting to that. “I've been thinking about you continuously, since I saw you yesterday, and‘ because of your beauty and your charm I've decided to give you the most wonderful chance you ever had." He had maneuvered her between two chairs. Without making an is- sue of it she could not get out without moving one qt the chairs and sliding along the wall behind it. She didn't want to make an issue of it. She said steadily, "What are you talking about, MimZor- one?" “I'm getting to that, too. my beautiful sally. Since you came in her yesterday with the rain spark- ling in your lashes I haven't been able to get you out of my head. You're such g lovely thing." He lurched between the chairs Before she could push either chair away he had her by the shoulders He pulled her into his arms and kissed her. Sally pushed against him, escaped his arms and slipped out behind the chair nearest the door. The doorbell rang.

Stefan Zorane said, "Oh, so it's you, you two-for-a-nlckei pip- squeak. I'm delighted to have this opportunity to tell you what I think of you before I throw you out of hero on your ear." The reporter selected a spot on the corner of Zorane's Jaw and swung his fist. Sally walked down the hall and waited near the elevator. She was thinking some very disturbing thoughts when Barney came down the hull. He did not look at her. And she could not have mct his eyes iflie had. , He rang for the elevator. They went down and out onto the side- walk. A taxicab was rolling slow- ly beside the curb. the driver hold- ing lip his hand in a sort of fro- zen salute. Sully did not see a sun- burned man in a black felt hat walking slowly toward them. Bhe glanced up at Barney's face. There was a red spot on one cheekbone, and 'she saw that ‘two of the knuckles on his right hand were bleeding. She said weakly, "He phoned m: and told me to come over on a matter of urgent importance. He was drunk. You've got. to listen to me, Barney." "1 know. Any man can call you up at two in the morning and tell you to come and over you come." “Barney? . "You're the girl who doe: Let’: Be Smart because you're so smart." He seemed to blto off the xvords and spit them at her. "You're too smart. for me. I'm through." He took her roughly by the arm 1nd swung her toward the curb so sharply that she stumbled. He jerked open the cab door and pulhed her l0 foreibly that she fell against the other door. He said thickly to the driver. “Take this lady wherever she wants to go,” and Cove the man a bill. The aunburned man in the black hat watched the cab go and glanc- 2d around at the tall, grim-faced young man striding away l0 pur- posefully. The sunburned man found an all night drug store. went into a booth and called Pop Kreg- -o's private number, "It's Steve. Pop. Listen. The Porter dame went up to Zorane’: at two-five sharp.
