A MCE WITH RUIN. I A RACE WITH RUIN. By HEADON HILL, Author of "Guilty Gold," "The Queen of Night," "By a Hair's Breadth," "The Peril of the Prince," &c., &e. CHAPTER XU. The Skylight in the Roof There need be no secret about this matter. Mr. Leopold Tannadyce was the author of the anonymous telegram which inadvertently furnished Mr. Croal with the clue he was so pleased with. The object of the moneylender was to create a breach between Sir Charles Roylance and Nance Beauchamp by disclosing to the baronet, through the unwitting mouth of the detective, that Nance was engaged in the dissemination of turf advice. He had carefully planned to send his infor- mation on Sunday morning, counting on Croal being in such a. haste to verify it that, not being able to do so at the closed office in the court, he would go down to Bar- field to make inquiries of Sir Charles. But he had not foreseen the check which Croal would get in a great measure owing to Nance's presence in the riverside village, of which he was ignorant. Still less could he have fore- seen the chance discoveries the inspector was to stumble on at the Angler's Rest. So it waa that two days later Tannadyce grew impatient to learn whether his mean artifice had succeeded, and when Hooligan swaggered into his private room for instruc- tions he tried to pump him on the subject. By a sort of tacit consent, no reference had been made between the two to the tragedy on the Downs, though in these days the con- federates had taken to eyeing each other fur- tively, as if striving to fathom the mind of the other. Otherwise their outward relations were the same. "You never told me the sequel of your little game with Miss Parker. Did you find her more amenable when you went back to let her out?" Tannadyce inquired carelessly. "She got let out, oonfound her!" Hooligan snapped viciously. "How is she behaving-down on her luck since you got the better of her?" "If she is she doesn't show it. She just looks knives at me when I do a bit of preach- ing to the old man about the way we're send- ing Starlight up in the betting." "That doesn't look as if she had fallen out with Roylance," remarked Tannadyce medi- tatively. "I think, Hooly," he went on after a pause, "that in view of future contingencies It would be well to knock on the head any friendship, past or present, between those two pretty dears. I should like you to run down to the place Roylance is staying at on the river and spend a few nights at the inn. Yon could get into conversation with him and blurt it out that the girl he was talking to at the trial gaye him away in the ordinary course of her vocation as a. tipster. Barfield is the name of the village where he has a furnished cottage." Lord Hooligan's coarse, red face flushed I purple, and his thick lips quivered tremu- lously. "No, I'U be hanged if I do it. I'll be, hanged if I'll go to BafCeld-on-Tha?mes," he answered with sullen rage that he should be expected to do this man's bidding-above all, such bidding as that. Tannadyce regarded him with the critical gaze of a huntsman endeavouring to account for the mutiny of a usually obedient hound. Apparently he succeeded. "I see," he said slowly, keeping his beady black eyes on Hooligan's face, "that I shall have to do it another way. It would be try- ing you rather too high if Barfield was the idyllio spot where "Drop it!" cried Hooligan furiously, advanc- ing to the table, where Tannadyce sat un- moved, but with a. warming finger hovering over the call-bell. "Don't you think that the intrusion of the police into our affairs at this juncture would be more annoying to you than to me, my lord, if you force me to call them in?" said the financier calmly, adding in a significant undertone, "Croal was at Barfield on Sunday." The two men stared at each other with open enmity at first, then with a dawning com- prehension of mutual interests. Finally Hooligan broke into a sheepish laugh. "I'm a bit below par," he grunted. "You mustn't take any notice of me, Tann. But was that—that detective fellow really there?" "Yes, but not with any knowledge that need alarm you," Tannadyce consoled him, satisfied to have brought his recalcitrant hound to heel. "He went to ask Roylance a,bout that girl at Parker's on the strength of an unsigned wire I sent him. Of course I shouldn't have done it if I had known-" "That'll do," Hooligan interrupted. "You' ve put your foot in it quite enough. That ferret will come prying to the office now, and though the girl can't tell him anything I shall have the jumps all the time." "Well, jumps won't hurt you, so long as you don't have to jump in the air," Tanna- dyce responded cheerfully. "You'd better cut along there now. The fair maiden mustn't be trusted alone too long." So parted the two allies, and while Hooligan was speeding eastward in a hansom Nance was feverishly busy at the office in Red Lion Court, putting into practice a project which she had matured since her return from Bar- field on Monday morning. Mr. Beauchamp sat with unseeing eyes in his accustomed Wind- sor chair, under the impressdon that his daughter's nimble fingers were folding into their envelopes letters of advice recommend- ing Starlight for the New Century Handicap. The rustle and oreckle were certainly oaused by the enclosure of printed matter, but it happened to be couched in an exactly oppo- site strain to what the blind man supposed. "We have to record with sorrow that our previous advices anent that grand horse Star- light must be cancelled, private information having reached us that the oolt is not doing well. There is plenty of time for our clients to hedge, and they had better do so by back- ing Minster, who, now that our original selec- tion has broken down, may be regarded as a good thing." Such was the wording of the circular which Nance was striving with might and main to get done up, and if possible, posted, before Hooligan's arrival. She had had it printed herself, not by the jobbing printer close by, but by another, and she pinned her hope to its knocking' Starlight out to such a figure that its owner could back it to advantage. It was all she could do for "Charley," and she did it eagerly, daftly—in spite of the risk she ran from the tilted boor who might appear at any moment, and of the rcluetance she felt to deceive that pathetio figure at the other side of the table. "You are in a great hurry to-day," said Mr. Beauchamp, his sightless eyee directed at the swift crackle of the paper. "I've got to be, father," Nance replied, fas- tening down the last of the envelopes and rising for the twentieth time to look out into the ootcrt. Yes, there he came at last-the big, bariy bully, with the strong cigar clenched between, his 00aroe lips, swaggering over the wwm jtaMm tfcoayh, be owned, ttwrn, It, was too late now to run out and port the I letters, and she trembled to think what he would do if his mistrust of her prompted him to open one. Her first impulse, to sweep all the letMd into a X>asket and thrust them into the cupboard till he should have gone, she discarded at once. Her father's quick sense of hearing would tell him what she was doing, and he was aware that she had been enclosing cir- culars all the morning. Hooligan, would be sure to hear from him how busy she had been. and she would be unable to account for having nothing to show for her work. There was nothing for it but to trust to luck to escape suspicion, and to her woman's wit to devise some expedient for turning it aside if necessary. The heavy footstepe clattered on the creaky stairs, and Hooligan appeared at the door, flinging it open in his usual unmannerly, style. Retaining her place at the window, Nance received his surly nod with a ooid stare as he approached the table. The girl was quick to note a subtle change in him-not aa to hia speech, but in his looks and de- meanour. The overbearing bluster was the same aa ever, but it was accompanied by a curious furtiveness, a tendency to stop and listen and peer over the shoulder, which was in queer contrast to the boisterous tone. "Well, Parker, old boy, yoh've been going it. I see-you and the lady help," he began ludely, sitting down and fingering the pile of letters in a way that made Nance's flesh creep. We shall have to cut up the spoils soon, with all the new subscribers my money has brought in." "Your lordship's share is at your service whenever you wish," said old Beauchamp, who had much ado to curb his resentment at his partner's manner. "There were fifty-seven fresh applicants this morning," interposed Nance quickly. "If you like, father, I will run across to the post-office and cash the orders, so that you can have a settlement with Lord Hooligan. I can post this lot of letters at the same time." Hooligan looked at her with an evil grin. "Not much, you don't," he sneered. "I'd rather wait for the cash than have you drop, ping all that valuable advice down a sewer grating. That would never do, just as our worthy clients have got Starlight so talked about that they're backing him at the clubs. I wonder how the owner likes it, eh, Parker?" "Our duty, my lord, as champions of the British thoroughbred is to the British public, and not to any owners," replied the old fanatic with a side-shot for Nanoe. "It is a source of gratification to me to have been able to give advice which I have reason to believe is really sound." Nance bit her lips with mortification. Bar first expedient for getting the spurious cir- culars posted had failed, and that another would become speedily necessary if she was to escape detection was apparent from the ominous scowls which Hooligan was casting at the pile on the table. The dull, bemused, 1 but ounning brain was working, and any moment it might break out in dangerous activity. Taking up one of the envelopes, Hooligan scrutinised the address abstractedly, and Nance, dreading lest a sudden impulse might prompt him to tear it open, was struck with an inspiration. Remembering her argu- ment that Hooligan must either have been the murderer or the author of the anony- mous information about her to the police, the hit on a plan which, while solving that question, might serve her present purpose. Affecting to gaze down into the court, she turned from the Window with a swift gesture and a mirthless laugh. Here is Inspector Croal, of Scotland Yard, making for the door below," she said. "I wonder who he wants?" The effect upon Hooligan was instant aiA complete. Kicking over his chair, he sprang up and looked at the door as though inclined to bolt, but realising that he would only be met on the stairs, he turned all flabby and quaking to Nance. "The skylight on the lauding--does it open ?" he asked frantically. That fellow must not see me here. He-he knows me by sight." His fright, and the flimsy excuse for it. sent a thrill of horror to Nance's heart, in- asmuch as it answered the question as to the part he had played in the mystery of Epsom Downs. Yet, with her purpose to achieve, she forced herself to reply calmly: Yes, it opens; I will show you how." In a twinkling they were both outside the door, and, standing on a chair she had snatched up from the office, Nance undid the catch of a small glass-paned square opening on to the roof. A second later the hulking frame of Lord Hooligan disappeared through the aperture, his movements accelerated by the sound of footsteps ascending the stairs —an unrehearsed effect in her programme, for which Nance was duly thankful. Let me out when he's gone," Hooligan called down in a horse whisper that made .ance shudder, so suggestive was it of that whisper in the gorse-patch. Very well," she replied curtly, and secured the skylight in grim triumph at the success of her artifice. Then she reteated into the office where her blind father sat unmoved by the episode, grasping only the idea that Lord Hooligan desired to conceal his connec- tion with tipsters. Nance had told him nothing of her suspicions, and he was quite prepared to aid in shielding his unpleasant partner from a disclosure which it seemed natural he should wish to avoid. Nance had just finished sweeping the letters into the basket, when there came a tap at the door, and the individual who had added to Hooligan's alarm entered-a rough-looking man, with a lot of unkempt hair straggling over the greasy collar of a butcher's blue coat. Just popped down from Farringdon Market to have a chat about that 4 ad.' of yours, Mr. Parker," he wheezed. There's my money for a subscription. Blind, are you ? Sorry for that. I dote on a horse, I do." Suddenly his eyes rested on Nance, and draw- ing a deep breath he added: Mornina, Miss." Good morning," said Nance shortly, intent only on the completion of her stratagem. "I think, father," she added. I will run out with this batch of letters if you will attend to the gentleman. It would be a pity to miss a post, and I won't be "wo minutes." Mr. Beauchamp bowed his stately head. only too glad to be left alone with any on* with a weakness for horseflesh, and Nanca passed out with the basket of letters, little thinking that she had practised no deception whatever on the nobleman at present crowd- ing among the chimney-pots. For the new subscriber in the butohw* blouse waa none other than Inspector Groat, come to look up the girl from Parker's Lightning Finals" on the spot, and mota them a little astonished to find that kH' anonymous informant was right after all.. re lie Ooatinaed^
