I could never toll whnt awoko mo; somo strange noise, no doubt, for I sat straight up, staring through tho black ness toward tho closed door. Almost nt tho very Instant I heard tho smash of glass in tho main cabin. I was only partially undrcssod, and, with ono Bprlng was at tho latch, tho fierce pitching of tho yacht making mo In Btantly npprehonslvo of accident. At tho first glanco I porcolvcd nothing unusual undor tho dim light, then I saw a man sprawling on tho .floor In midst of a llttor of glass from a broken mirror. I leaped across "Ho ward tho fellow, twisting my hand Into the collar of his pea-jacket, and whirl ing him fnco upward to tho light.

"Oh, Christ! ChrlBt!" ho shrieked, apparently novor soclng mo at all, his tooth gnashing, a foam on his Hps. "I saw it again right over thoro! But I klllod that ono! I killed that ono! It will go back to hell ahead of mo! Oh, God! thoro'a nnothor! Anothor, but I'll kill that one, too!" Straight toward mo ho camo with tho fierce, unexpected leap of a wild animal. Half-dazed I grappled him. It wns tho contest of man against boast, for ho fought clawing nnd snap ping, snarling forth curses.

J I loosened tho ono, drow off tho others hut tho door, a,nd loft him thoro alono, woe clour enough ho had again bo eld the ghost, but bow camo ho to bo - ally dressed, his clothlug still wet with tho salt spray? Drcathlng hard from tho exertion, I glanced curiously at my watch to noto tho hour. Baroly two o'clock. Why, It was his trick on deck; ho had deserted his position to como below. Tho Soa Queen was rush ing through tho gloom with no officer on tho bridge. Do Nova would bo In his bunk asleep. I sprang to my own room, and hastily finished dressing, fully determined on standing out Tut He's watch on deck. As I camo forth again Into the main cabin, winding a muffler about my throat, a vision In whlto fronted mo, grasping tho table to keep from falling. "What Is It, Mr. StophcnB? What has happonod?" "Nothing that need In any way sickening plunge, and hor eyes opened In npprchonslon, I caught her arm firm ly. "Truly, bcllovo mo, therq la no danger. Mr. Tuttlo has been suddenly taken 111, and I am going to relievo him on watch. You havo confldcnco In mo, havo you not?" Her eyes searched my faco earnest ly, tho gray depths full of anxiety. "Oh, yes." "Thon now Is tho time to chow It. I shall remain on deck, probably, until morning. I wish you to go back, He down nnd rost. Let mo nsslst you to return to your stateroom." I held her closoly to me, so closoly I could feel tho throb of hor breathing, tho warmth of hor flesh, realizing that Bho was clinging to mo In uttor forgot- fulness. Only nt tho door did sho draw away slightly, yet oven thon with hor handB clasping my arm, her hands clasping my arm, her eyes gazing directly Into mlno. "You havo told mo nil?" "All of tho slightest Importance; tho dotalls can wait daylight. I ask you to confldo In mo now, and sleep. May I havo your promlso?" Thero was something mystifying In thoso gray eyes I had never perceived boforo, and sho caught her breath In a quick sob. "Yes," sho replied, simply, her lashos drooping, "you may havo my promlso. On deck I discovered tho yacht la boring dosporatoly in a Jieavy cross sea, tho sky clear, and two mon strain ing nt tho wheel. In spite of tho' sjar shlno, thoy wore so bundled up that I was compelled to staro directly la their faces beforo I could recognize either. "Mr, Tuttlo has boon taken sick and gono to his bortb," I oxplalncd briefly. "I will servo out his watch. What course havo you?" "Sou'-sou'-east by, sou', Blr." I glanced Inquiringly at tho compass- card, and thon forward, sweeping tho Bcas with my glasses. There was no Ico in sight, but tho bitter cold of tho .

Ho shrugged his shoulders "By gar, It look llko zaro was nosB' lng ohio for It." "No; it Is tho'only wny. Call mo at tho end of your trick, I'll look In on Tuttlo ngnln as I go below."

Ho wot bis parched Hps with his tonguo, turning ma bona ovor so slightly at sound of my volco. 4 "Another drink of brandy," ho mut tered, thickly. 'II don't seo what is tho matter with my logs; thoy won't move.' I brought him tho liquor, lifting his bond so ho might drink moro easily, and expressing a hopo that ho would feel much bottor by morning.

But nho need havo no fear on that Bcoro. irom tno moment sue nngnts she will find every step of tho way mado smooth.

Arrived at tho top, nho hands fior cards to ono of tho group of attend ants, and Is conducted to nn ante chambor, whore 'sho awaits tho mo ment of bor presentation. Poorosses aro led to tho ballroom and conducted to tholr seats thoro, but a" who aro to bo presented, whether on accession to title, on marrlago, or mcroly as debutantes, remain In ante chambers till tho presentations begin. Thoy miss tho sight of the proces sion of royalties ontorlng, of courso, but havo an opportunity of seolng It rotlro later In tho evening. , Courts aro not now hold In tho throno room, na In Queen Victoria's day, but In the-beautiful ballroom of Buckingham palace. At about 10:30 tho royal family en ters, preceded by mnny ofllclala In brilliant uniforms, tho latter all walk lng backward with staves and wands. Tho king wearj a Hold marshal's uni form and tho Blbbon of the Gartor, with other ordors. Tho queen, always exquisitely dressed, also wears tho Blue rtlbbon or tho Garter and othor ordors, among which her own Danish (a deop carnation red) usually ap- pears. Ilcr majesty's Jewels aro mag nificent. Tho procession Includes nny other members of tho royal family who may happen to -bo In town, nnd there Is very often a distinguished guest. Tho peeresses and ladles of the dlp-l " lomotlc corps aro ranged on olthor side,' Btandlng in front of thn gllc ' chalra to which they havo bcou conJ ducted on their arrival. Among thorn are men in military or naval uniform, or court drcBa (black velvet, silk stockings, ntfd buckled shoes), and the' scene Is one of great beauty. The national anthem Is playcl and' the royal party passes to tho dais, bo foro which debutantes nnd other la dies to bo presented pass. Directly tho sovereigns havo neat" cd themselves a red silk cord is drawn across about four yards In front o8 them. On tho othor aide of this cord the ladles presented havo to paas, mnko a deep obblBanco, nnd graceful ly back- out without tripping them Belvcs In their gowns. ' When tho court is at Buckingham palnco, tho normal regimo of affairs 13 quite altered on Sundnys. Tho members of tho household rlso an hour later on Sunday, and tho num ber of ladlcs-In-waltlng on tho Queen nnd tho equerries In nttcntlanco on His Majesty Is reduced usually by one-half. Tho non-resident members, of tho household, except on spcc'al occasions, such as when somo foreign royal guest Is being entertained by their Majestlos, do not na a rulo at tend at court on Sunday. Divine Bcrvico la hold In tho prlvato chapel, at 11:30 a. m.f which tho lIn and queon alwaya attend. Tho chpol la not opon to tho public, Jut membora of tho household nro allowed to bring their frlonds to services on certain occasions. A very strict rulo Is that the whole congregation must bo la their ser.ta flvo minutes beforo tho servlco beglf)s, and this regulation Is Bcrupulously ob served by their Majesties themselves. After servlco tho royal party, which frequently lncludo tho prlnco nnft princess of Wales and their chlldro't If thoy aro In London, takes a wall In tho palnco grounds boforo lunch eon; after which, tho queen generally goes to Marlborough House, whero bIion I constantly dines on Sundays. Both tho king and queen dlsliko rnnyining uouig uoao on aunuay mat entails extra work on tho servants of tho establishment at which they, may bo guests. In tills connection a story la told of a mild reproof administered by tho king to a certain peer with whom their Majestlea stayed for tho week end last year. Shortly beforo church tlmo, throo poworful motor car3 camo round to tho hall door to convey tho party to church, which was by road about a milo from tho peer's residence; by taking a short cut, hqwever, through thu park, tho distance was lessened by moro than half. Directly tho king, discovered this fact, ho determined to walk to church. "I really thought said His Majesty to his host, "when I saw theso motor' cars that wo wero going to n church In tho next county." King Edward and Queen Alexnndrln probably prefer to spend Sunday at Sandrlngham than nny whero else; ns a matter of fact, thoy aro, compnra tlvoly speaking, seldom nblo to do so; It Is, Indeed, doubtful If their Mai- estlcs nr at Sandrlngham on moro thah a dozen Sundays 'In tho year, Sunday at Saudrlnghani Is observed by tholr1 Majostles ns It Is in many country homos, but perhaps tho king and qucon spend tho Sabbath moro in accordanco with traditional Eugllsh ldoa3 thnn bthors. Among tho -Sunday guesta at Sand rlnghnm Is frequently somo woll known clorlc who comes to preach at morning servlco In tho quiet, home ly llttlo chapel whero bo many crowned heads and other dlatingulahod porsonB havo worshiped. Their Majestlea alwayB make a point or joining tholr guests at breakfast on Junday when nt Sandrlngham, which, on ordinary occnslons, Is served to tho Bovorelgn and his consort In tholr prlvato apartments. A featuro of Sunday at Sandrlng ham la tho assembly of tho wholo houso party that takes place In tho great hall, a,, quarter pT qn4hour beforo church tlmo. Their MaJo'stfeB join tho gathering nnd chut to tbolr guests until It Is time to set out for church.
