SYNOPSIS.
Miss Patricia Holbrook and Miss Helen
Holbrook, her niece, were entrusted to
the care of Laurance Donovan, a writer,
summering near Port Annandale. Miss
Patricia confided to Donovan that she
feared her brother Henry, who. ruined by
a bank failure, had constantly threatened
her for money from his father’s will, of
which Miss Patricia was guardian. They
came to Port Annandale to escape Henry.
Donovan sympathized with the two
women. He learned of Miss Helen's an
noying suitor. Donovan discovered and
captured an intruder, who proved to he
Reginald Gillespie, suitor for the hand of
Miss Helen Holbrook. Gillespie disap
peared the following morning. A rough
sailor appeared and was ordered away.
Donovan saw Miss Holbrook and her fa
ther meet on friendly terms. Donovan
fought an Italian assassin. He met the
man be supposed was Holbrook, but who
said he was Hartridge, a canoe-maker.
After a short discussion Donovan left
surlily. Gillespie was disc overed by Don
ovan presenting a country church with
$1,000. Gillespie admitted he knew of Hol
brook's presen'e. Miss Pat acknowledged
to Donovan that Miss Helen had been
missing for a few hours. While riding
in a launch, the Italian sailor attempted
to molest the trio, but failed. Miss Pat
announced her intention of fighting Henry
Holbrook and not seeking another hiding
place. Donovan met Helen in garden at
night. Duplicity of Helen was confessed
by the young lady. She admitted conniving
with her father despite her aunt’s
precautions, in a night meeting with Don
ovan. The three went for a long ride the
following day. That night, disguised as a
nun. Helen stole from th** house. She met
Reginald Gillespie, who told her his love.
GMlespie was confronted by Donovan.
Helen’s lover escaped. At^ the town post
office Helen, unseen except bv Donovan,
Flipped a draft into the hand of the Ital
ian sailor. She also signaled her father.
Miss Pat and Donovan “took in’’ the
canoe carnival. \ young lady resembling
Miss Helen Ibdbrook was observed alone
in a canoe, when Helen was thought to
bare been at home. Donovan met Gil
lespie.
CHAPTER XII—Continued.
*‘I. myself,” he continued, taking a
chair near me and placing his feet in
an open window, “am cursed with
rugged health. I have quite recovered
from those unkind cuts at the nunnery
—thanks to your ministrations—and
am willing to put on the gloves with
you at any time.”
“You do me great honor; but the
affair must wait for a lower tempera
ture.”
“As you will! It is not like my
great and gracious ways to force a
fight. Pardon me, but may I inquire
for the health of the ladies at Saint
What’s-her-name’s?”
“They are quite well, thank you."
“I am glad to know it;”—and his
tone lost for the moment its jaunti
ness. "Henrjf Holbrook has gone to
New York.”
“Good riddance!” I exclaimed, hear
tily. “And now—”
“—And now if I would only follow
suit, everything would be joy plus for
you!”
He laughed and slapped his knees
at my discomfiture, for .he had read
my thoughts exactly.
“You certainly are the only blot on
the landscape!”
“Quite so. And if I would only go
hence the pretty little idyl that is be
ing enacted in the delightful garden,
under the eye of a friendly chaperon,
would go forward without interrup
tion.”
He spoke soberly, and I had ob
served that when he dropped his chaff
a note of melancholy crept into his
talk. He folded his arms and went
on: “She’s a wonderful girl, Donovan.
There's no other girl like her in all
the wide world. I tell you it’s hard
for a girl like that to be in her posi
tion—the whole family broken up, and
that contemptible father of hers hang
ing about with his schemes of plunder.
It's pitiful, Donovan; it’s pitiful!”
“It’s a cheerless mess. It all came
after the bank failure, I suppose.”
“Practically, though the brothers
never got on. You see my governor
was bit by their bank failure; and
Miss Pat resented the fact that he
backed off when stung. Hut the Gil
lespies take their medicine; father
never squealed, which makes me sore
that your Aunt Pat gives me the icy
eye.”
' Their affairs are certainly mixed,”
I replied, non-committally.
"They are indeed; and I have studied
the whole business until my near
mind is mussed up, like scrambled
eggs. Your own pretty idyl of the
nunnery garden adds the note pi
quante. Cross my palm with gold and
I'll tell you of strange things that lie
in the future. I have an idea, Dono
van; singular though it seem, I’ve a
notion in my head.”
“Keep it,” I retorted, "to prevent a
cranial vacuum.”
“Crushed! Absolutely crushed!” he
replied, gloomily. "Kick me. I'm only
the host.”
We were silent while the few sounds
of the village street droned in. He
rose and paced the floor to shake off
his mood, and when he sat down he
seemed in better spirits.
“Holbrook will undoubtedly return,”
1 said.
“Yes; there’s no manner of doubt
about that."
“And then there will be more trou
ble.”
“Of course.”
“But I suppose there's no guessing
when he will come back.”
"He will come back as soon as he's
spent his money.”
I felt a delicacy about referring to
that transaction on the pier. It was
a wretched business, and I now
realized that the shame of it was Jaot
lost on Gillespie.
“How does Henry come to have that
Italian scoundrel with him?” I asked
after a pause.
“He’s the skipper of the Stiletto,”
Gillespie replied, readily.
“He's a long way from tide-water,”
I remarked. “A blackguard of just his
sort once sailed me around the Italian
peninsula in a felucca, and saved me
from drowning on the way. His hero
ism was' not, however, wholly disinter
ested. When we got back to Naples
he robbed me of my watch and money
belt and I profited by the transaction,
having intended to give him double
their value. But there are plenty of
farm boys around the lake who could
handle the Stiletto. Henry didn't need i
a dago expert.” i
“What the Devil Did You Bring Me Up Here For?”
The mention of the Italian cleariy
troubled Gillespie. After a moment he
said:
"He may be holding on to Henry in
stead of Henry's holding on to him. Do
you see?"
“No; I don’t.”
"Well, I have an idea that the dago
knows something that's valuable. Last
summer Henry went cruising in the
Sound with a pretty rotten crowd,
poker being the chief diversion. A
man died on the boat before they got
back to New York. The report was
that he fell down a hatchway when he
was drunk, but there were some ugly
stories in the papers about it. That
Italian sailor was one of the crew.”
“Where is he now?”
"Over at Hattie Orchard. He knows
his man and knows he'll be back. I'm
waiting for Henry, too. Helen gave
him $20,000. The way the market Is
running he’s iikelv to go broke any
day. He plays stocks like a crazy
man, and after he's busted he’ll be
back on our hands.”
“It’s hard on Miss Pat.”
“And it’s harder on Helen. She’s in
terror all the time for fear her father
will go up against the law and bring
further disgrace on the family. There’s
her Uncle Arthur, a wanderer on the
face of the earth for his sins. That
was bad enough without the rest of it.”
“That was greed, too, wasn't it?”
“No, just general cussedness. He
blew in the Holbrook bank and
skipped."
“You told me that Henry Holbrook
found his way here ahead of you. How
do you account for that?”
He looked at me quickly, and rose,
again pacing the narrow room.
"I don’t! I wish I could!”
“It’s about the last place in the
world to attract him. Port Annandale
is a quiet resort frequented by western
people only. There’s neither hunting
nor fishing worth mentioning; and a
man doesn't come from New York to
Indiana to sail a boat on a thimbleful
of water like this lake.”
“You are quite right.”
“If Helen Holbrook gave him warn
ing that they were coming here—”
“Don’t you dare say it! She couldn’t
have done! She wouldn't have done
it! I tell you I know, independently of
her, that he was here before Father
Stoddard ever suggested this place to
Miss Pat.”
“Well, you needn't get so hot about
it.”
And you neean t insinuate that she
is not acting honorably in this affair!
I should think that after making love
to her, as you have been doing, and
playing the role of comforter to Miss
Pat, you would have the decency not
to accuse her of connivance with Hen
ry Holbrook."
"You let your jealousy get the better
of your good sense. I have not been
making love to Miss Holbrook!” I de
clared, angrily, and knew in my heart
that I lied.
“Well, Irishman,” he exclaimed with
entire good humor; “let us not bring
up mine host to find us locked in mor
tal combat.”
“What the devil did you bring me up
here for?” I demanded.
“Oh, just to enjoy your society. I
get lonesome sometimes. I tell you a
man does get lonesome iq this world
when he has nothing to lean on but a
blooming button factory and a step
mother who flits among the world’s ex
pensive sanatoria. I know you have
never had ’Button, button, who’s got
the button?’ chanted in your ears, but
may I ask whether you have ever
known the joy of a stepmother? I
can see that your answer will be an
unregretful negative.”
He was quite the fool again, and
stared at me vacuously.
“My stepmother is not the common
type of juvenile fiction. She has never
attempted during her widowhood to
rob the orphan or to poison him. Bless
your Irish heart, no! She's a good
woman, and rich in her own right, but
I couldn’t stand her dietary. She’s
afraid I’m going to die, Donovan!
She thinks everybody’s going to die.
Father died of pneumonia and she said
ice-water in the finger-bowl did it, and
she wanted to have the butler ar
rested for murder. She had a new
disease for me every morning. It was
worse than being left with a button
w'orks to draw a stepmother like that.
She ate nothing but hot water and
zweibach herself, and shuddered when
I demanded sausage and buckw’heat
cakes every day. She caught me one
day clearing up a couple of chickens
and a mug of Bass with the gardener,
and it was all over. She had noticed,
she said, that I had been coughing of
late—I was doing a few cigarettes too
many, that was all—and wired to New
York for doctors. She had all sorts,
Donovan—alienists and pneumogastric
specialists and lung experts.
i ne people on Strawberry Hill
thought there was a medical conven
tion in town. I was kidnaped on the
golf course, where i was about to win
the eastern Connecticut long-drive
cup, and locked up in a dark room at
home for two days while they tested
me. They made, all the known tests,
Donovan. They tested me for dis
eases that haven't been discovered
yet, and for some that have been ex
tinct since the days of Xoah. You can
see where that put me. I was afraid
to fight or sulk for fear the alienists
would send me to the madhouse. 1
was afraid to eat for fear they would
think that was a symptom, and every
time I asked for food the tape-worm
man looked intelligent and began pre
scribing, while the rest of them were
terribly chagrined because they hadn’t
scored first. The only joy I got out
of the rumpus was in hitting one of
those alienists a damned hard clip in
the ribs, and I’m glad I did it. He was
feeling my medulla oblongata at the
moment, and as I resent being man
handled I pasted him one—he was a
young chap, and fair game—I pasted
him one, and then grabbed a suit-case
and slid. I stole away in a clamboat
for New Haven, and kept right on up
into northern Maine, where I stayed
with the Indians until my father’s re
lict went off broken hearted to Bad
Neuheim to drink the waters. And
here I am, by the grace of God, in
perfect health and in full control of
the button market of the world.”
“You have undoubtedly been sorely
tried,” I said as he broke off mournful
ly. In spite of myself I had been en
tertained. He was undeniably a fellow
of curious humor and with unusual ex
perience of life. He followed me to
the street, and as I rode away he
called me back as though to impart
something of moment.
Too Much Work For One Wife
Nigerian Needs Several Properly to
Minister to His Comfort.
According to (he Geographical Jour
nal of London the marital relations
among the peoples of Nigeria vary
somewhat according to their state ol
civilization: "Po'.ygamy is the rule,
the reason given being that It is im
possible for one woman to do all the
work of the house, look after the cbil
dren, prepare and cook the food, fetch
the daily supply of water (often an
arduous Job), cultivate the plantation
and go to market. The African is an
exceedingly hungry person. It is the
custom to eat several times a day
when at home, and the men spend
most of their day sitting in the pala
ver house or market place, while the
women bring the food all day long.
One wife could not possibly do this.
Besides, the African lady encourages
it, for she says, ‘The more wives, the
less work.’
“Among the Ahiaras, Onichas, Obu
wus and the lower class of pagan
tribes in the interior, there is very
little form of marriage. As soon as
a man has the means, he pays the par
ents w hat they want, in the shape of
goats, cows, beads and money, and
takes the girl. There is no ceremony
at all. The more wives the greater
riches he is supposed to have and the
better he will be looked after.
"If, of course, they can manage to
seize a woman from the neighboring
tribe while she is fetching water or
working on her farm, so much the
cheaper. With this method in vogue
for centuries, no wonder that it is as
much as a native’s life is worth to go
out of his own village, and that the
country is so backward.”
Most Obstinate Things.
A bachelor says a mule is the most
obstinate thing on earth, but married
men know better.—Chicago Daily
News.
Circumstantial Evidence.
“Is it true than an employe of the
street-cleaning department was seen
intoxicated on the street?”
“No; the rumor started from the
fact that some people said they saw
him fall off the waterwagon.”
“Did you ever meet Charles Dar
win?”
“He didn’t need me for proof, But
tons.’”
“I wish I might have had one wrord
with him. It's on my inind that he
put the monkeys back too far. I
should be happier if he had brought
them a little nearer up to date. I
should feel less lonesome, irishman.”
He stopped me again.
“Once I had an ambition to find an
honest man, Donovan, but I gave it up
—it’s easier to be an honest man than
to find one. I give you peace!”
I had learnad some things from the
young button'd;ing, but much was still
opaque in the affairs of the Hol
brooks. The Italian's presence as
sumed a new significance from Gilles
pie's story. He had been party to a
conspiracy to kill Holbrook, alia-?
Hart ridge, on the night of my adven
ture at the houseboat, and I fell to
wondering who had been the shadowy
director of that enterprise—the cow
ard who had hung off in the creek and
waited for the evil deed to be done.
CHAPTER XIII.
The Gate of Dreams.
In my heart I was anxious to do
justice to Gillespie. Sad it is that we
are all so given to passing solemn
judgment on trifling testimony! I my
self am not impeccable. I should at
any time give to the lions a man who
uses his thumb as a paper-cutter; for
such a one is clearly marked for bru
tality. My prejudices rally as to a
trumpet-call at the sight of a girl
wearing overshoes or nibbling bon
bons—the one suggestive of predatory
habits and weak lungs, the other of
nervous dyspepsia.
The night was fine, and after re
turning my horse to the stable I con
tinued on to the Glenarm boathouse. I
was strolling along, pipe in mouth,
and was half-way up the boathouse
steps when a woman shrank away
from the veranda rail, where she had
been standing, gazing out upon the
lake. There was no mistaking her.
She was not even disguised to-night,
and as I advanced across the little ver
anda she turned toward me. The lan
tern over the boathouse door suffused
us both as I greeted her.
“Pardon me. Miss Holbrook; I'm
afraid 1 have disturbed your medita
tions,” I said. “But if you don't
mind—”
“You have the advantage of being
on your own ground." she replied.
“I waive all my rights as tenant if
you will remain.”
“It is much nicer here than on St.
Agatha's pier; you can see the lake
and the stars better. On the whole,”
she laughed, "I think I shall stay a
moment longer, if you will tolerate
me.”
I brought out some chairs and we
sat down by the rail, where we could
look out upon the star-sown heavens
and the dark floor of stars beneath.
Helen bent forward with her elbows
resting on the rail, her hands clasped
under her chin. The lamplight fell
full upon her slightly lifted head, and
upon her shoulders, over which lay a
filmy veil. She hummed dreamily for
a moment while I watched her. Had
she one mood for the day and another
for the night? I had last seen her
that afternoon after an hour of ten
nis, at which she was expert, and she
had run away through Glenarm gate
with a taunt for my defeat; but now
the spirit of stars and of all earth's
silent things was upon her. I looked
twice and thrice at her clearly
outlined profile, at the brow with its
point of dark hair, at the hand where
on the emerald was clearly distin
guishable, and satisfied myself that
there could be no mistake about her.
“You grow bold,” I said, anxious to
hear her voice. “You don’t mind the
pickets a bit.”
“No. I'm quite superior to walls
and fences. You have heard of those
East Indians who appear and disap
pear through closed doors; well, we ll
assume that I had one of those fel
lows for an ancestor! It will save the
trouble of trying to account for my
exits and entrances. I will tell you
in confidence, Mr. Donovan, that I
don't like to be obliged to account for
myself!”
