PAGE 6. PLATTSMOUTH SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1913. A PERSON OF SOME IMPORTANCE Bj LLOYD OSBOURNE Copyright. 191 1, by the Bobbs-MerriU Company j PROLOGUE. t Lovers of Romance, attention Here's a story you will like. It tells of mystery under the dreamy moon of the Pacific islands and of love in the shady lanes of New England and what more can a story reader want? The mystery, of course, is introduced early in the tale, and the 'love follows close after. Together they go tand in hand through the pages if the story, never parting com Jany until the final chapter. There the mystery departs, but th love remains. Tou know, of course, about the auftor, Lloyd Osbourne. He leaned how to write in a worthy school, for he is a stepson of Robert Louis Stevenson. And no greater story teller than the latter mver lived. CHAPTER II!. A Voice at the Telephone. 1X55- cried Matt "I don know -what you're talking about. You're mistaken wto said I "was a king?" "Soxr, It's jio good putting me off like that." said Mr. Maynard. "If It's In the New York Clarion first. It ha fo be In the Munaswan Banner second. Bt wouldn't be fair If yon didn't give us second place, considering 7011 were born and raised here, and owe that much to the town. I've got a cracker- jack stenographer waiting in the of fice, two typists, and the operator's holding the wire for the Associated Tress, so get your hat, and come along quick, like a good chap." "I wish you would tell me what you're talking about," exclaimed Matt, growing Impatient. "Is your office In a lunatic asylum or "where?" "Then you haven't seen It?" asked Mr. Maynard. offended and Incredu Ions, searching the younger man's face. "Seen what?" "The big front page Sunday story of the Clarion the New York Dally Clarion?" "Of course I haven't." The editor, recovering his good na ture, drew a newspaper from his over coat pocket, and flattened it out with his hand. "There It is," he said. The staring scare heads swam before Matt's eyes. HAIL, TO THE KING! ROTAIj BROUGHTON1 returns to CHILDHOOD S HOME. KING OP THE KANAKAS HERE.

Girls. Don't Any of Tou Want to Be a Queen? Matt had scarcely reached the end when there was a violent commotion outside horses galloping, men descend ing excitedly, the porch shaking with the tramp of feet, and pull, pull, pull at the bell as though the house were on fire. A second later a crowd of newspaper men and photographers surged Into the room, spattering the carpet with mud and snow; a noisy. Jostling throng in heavy overcoats, all demanding "the Kanaka king." "Me first, gentlemen," cried May nard. grabbing Matt as though he were a bale of goods. "The king's mine till noon"' "The dickens he is!" exclaimed one of the mob, elbowing up to Matt. "We're all in 6n this, aren't we. boys?" "Yon bet we are," came from a dozen ready throats. Matt rose, speechless with rage, and, tearing himself clear, strode to the door and up to his bedroom. Here with a bang he locked himself in. the whole pack pounding at his heels like school boys after a runaway. "I'm not a king," he roared through at them. "There's not a word of truth in that idiotic article. The first fellow that breaks down my door will get his head punched!" It was fully half an hour before they descended, disheartened and growling, to bundle Into their sleighs and depart. -Three hoots for the kingP cried one of them, trying to lead off, but his suggestion metwith jno response and the jingling bells drowned his solitary effort. A little later there was a shuffling, lumbering sound outside Matt's door, and Iloyt's husky voice came through the keyhole. "Shay, ole man. yon aren't angry with me. aro you? Good joke. Dresh it tip a bit and git fir dollarsh! Didn' mean any harm shole and honor, didn' mean any harm. Great newspaper stuff, 6hat story. Royal Broughton re turnsh to childhood's home, and I got fir dollarsh for It. Come along and palnsh town red. Come along, you old stiff!" The Manaswan Banner printed the Clarion tale in full and by that one is sue lifted Matt from obscurity to local greatness. Matt's own appearance contributed not a little to the deception. Men who have led adventurous lives on the fron tiers of civilization nsually get a pe culiar stamp a peculiar and marked individuality. Matt was not only good looking, but there was something no nsual, attractive and even distinguish ed about him. It was Impossible for any one to "place" Matt; the Sherlock Holmeses were always baffled; he fit ted into no class and yet bad an "air. This capacity to rouse interest, favora b!e Interest, Is a human possession of great value. It has also, of course, its drawbacks. When the Banner raised Matt to kingship Manaswan was thrill ed, but not altogether surprised. Manaswan had long been aware "that he was somebody out of the way. One result of the grotesque fiction was to bring Matt Into contact with some of the better families of the place. The Cleghorns, the Randalls, the Rnssells and the Bucks all in some manner or other contrived to scrape acquaintance with." him. ' These social overtures, made first out of sheer curiosity and In most instances Inspired by the women, opened to Matt a number of pleasant, if somewhat stiff and old fashioned, households. And he was led finally Into the extrav agance of buying evening clothes and began to cut a modest dash in Mana swan society. It wasn't the best society, however. There was an upper crust still, to which the Cleghorns, the Randalls, the Russells and the Bucks were as hourls outside the gates. In this higher realm were the Marshalls, the old general and his daughter, who rode thorough bred horses and lived within a . vast park; the Derwents, owners of the shoe factories; the Bells, and others an aristocracy of wealth and compact ly exclusive. The old general had been American minister to half the courts of Europe and was described as very "grand." Matt enjoyed the homespun gayeties to which he was now so often Invited the candy pullings, the parties where they played games, the Jolly sleighing rides and suppers. They offered him a more enlivening companionship than he found in the boarding house, which In contrast grew drearier every day till its fly specked walls took on the aspect of a morgue. But money was ebbing fast, and the arrival of spring and Daggancourt's lengthening face all hastened his resolution to leave Manaswan and pay a flying visit to Kentucky to spy out the land. The mules were calling, and it was time for dreams to become realities! Dag gancourt would have bought a pair in Manaswan, loaded their Joint ef fects on a wagon and started off. But Matt was not such a burner of bridges. ITe woftld prudently inspect mule ter ritory and mule conditions and then return with well formulated mule plans. While nerving himself to depart ana putting it off from day to day on one excuse or another, he wrote to Snood & Hargreaves. the San Francisco jewelers, saying that he had made op his mind to part with the ring ana requesting them to remit him the $1.- 500 by express, deducting whatever in terest had accrued. It was not with out a pang that he dropped this letter into the. box. It marked theknelof those easy going days at Mrs.' Sat tane's. It had now to be mules In ear nest, with hard work and frugal living and evening clothes put away perhaps forever. lie spun out his farewell calls, dilly dallied, held back all he could, but at last the inexorable morning arrived. Daggancourt was there in an automo bile. Matt's suit case, packed bursting, stood ready on the porch, together with a large brown paper package of the overflow. Ills pockets bulged with hard boiled eggs and sandwiches, and never was a man more apparently des tined for instant departure when the telephone bell suddenly rang and Brid get came rushing out to say that Mr. Doty wanted Mr. Broughton on the wire. At the moment It seemed an Intol erable infliction. Mr. Doty was a clergyman, a mild creature of an anx ious cordiality, whose - acquaintance with Matt was of the slightest Matt took up the receiver with the inten tion of making short work of the rev erend gentleman, an Intention empha sized by the honk of Victor's born. Im periously bidding him to hurry. 'Hello," he said. Oh, Mr. Broughton." returned Doty, "this Is Just to remind you of our church social tomorrow night, tickets 23 cents, Including hat check, and to say I simply cannot take a re fusal. Please tell me that you will come." "Comer cried Matt. "Why. I'm leav ing this minute for Kentucky V Jt off, thenprotested Doty. "I "bayea 'specIaHFoascTn a very'spe elal reason for wishing you to come. Indeed. I must make ray request Im perative. Oh. Mr. Broughton. refuse me if you like, but do not say no to one of the sweetest and most gracious of our young patricians." "Can't help it," exclaimed Matt curtly. "Sorry to disappoint yon, but really" . - "Mayn't I try to persuade you, Mr. Broughton?" said a new voice in his ear a girlish voice with the Indescrib able cadence of good breeding. "I've been counting so much on meeting you tomorrow night in fact, I only agreed to come for that reason." Matt's own tone softened. "Do tell me who yon are," he asked "I oughtn't even to wait for that, but I'm too flattered not to." "I'm Miss Marshall," she replied "General Marshalls daughter, you know or I suppose you don't know, though" "Miss Marshall !" cried Matt, dazzled at the name. "I bad no Idea I was talking to angels unawares. Of course I know you. in a faroff, cat looking at king sort of way. Who doesn't?" "I know you better than that," she returned gayly. "Let me count yes it's five times I've seen yon. and once I was so close to you in the music store that I might have touched you. I am sorry I didn't now hold out my hand. I mean but It's a world where people are too easily misunderstood Isn't It? And here we are. like ships that pass in the night with you go ing to Kentucky. Must you really go to Kentucky, Sir. Broughton?" "I'm afraid I have to." "Does that mean you've found Mana swan horribly dull? But of course it does. People only stay here who have to like barnacles on a rock." "I don't know. I've liked It well enough." stammered Matt, "thou yon make me ashamed to admit it. I think I'm sorry to leave the old place. specially now." "That settles It, Mr. Broughton. You simply mast come!"' exclaimed the young lady. 'Tlease tell me that you will!" Matt listened eagerly as she laughed again and then struck his flag. The sound of his voice startled him with its earnestness. "Certainly, if you wish it." he said. "It's too charming an invitation from too charming a person for me to re fuse." , Apparently Miss Marshall was a lit tle taken aback. There seemed shade less cordiality In her tone as she replied, "Oh, if you would much rather not, you know If it's inconvenient or anything please don't let me put you out." "Oh, but I'd love to come. Beally and truly I would." With an even more ambiguous: "Oh, thanks! Then we will expect you Goodby!" the phone was closed. Poor Daggancourt was terribly cast down at the news and expostulated tremblingly, with tears in his eyes. He was so humble, so quaveringly re strained, that his reproaches were harder to bear than if they had been more outspoken. Mrs. Sat tone and the others were merely surprised, very much surprised Indeed, and listened with the greediest of ears and the most evident incredulity to the tale of a forgotten promise to Mr. Doty. An unreasoning elation possessed Matt He was eager to be alone with himself and dream, for had not a love ly queen stooped to notice him and thrown him a flower? Never was a Saturday night mofe slow of arrival, yet when at last Matt Btood at the entrance of the church and heard the babel of voices within he was stricken with a sort of terror. He entered guiltily and once inside had a fresh spasm of dismay to find he was apparently the only man there In evening dress. The place was crowd ed and hot and noisy and disconcert ing; committeemen with rosettes grab bed his hand and welcomed him as "brother;" excited young ladles sur rounded him, holding ' up objects for sale and overwhelming him with saucy pleasantries; little girls, with immense bows in their hair, tried to drag him toward the booths, of which there was a row on either side of the church, forming a sort of street or promenade between. Over ail, here, there and every where, was Mr. Doty, feverishly cor dial, persplrlngly gay, gimleting his way through the crush to make sure that every one was having "a good time." It was all very kindly and simple and good natured and genuine, and had It not been for a devouring sus pense, and a restlessness that kept Matt ever on the alwrt, he would have entered into the affair with his usual amiability. But at the moment it was maddening. He bad to laugh and chatter; to eat things he didn't want to eat; to buy things he didn't want to buy; to be hilarious when arrested by the comic policeman infliction after Infliction to one whose heart was in a tumult, and whose eyes were ever on the watch.
