"What isn't?" said Harridan reas
suringly. Wattiville immediately proiosed mi
ni her, in order scient ilically to analy7.e

which accompanied the demand, and
scanned his sporting partner with a lit
tle rising concern, forgetful of his per
innal fortunes, lie repeated to himself
-iiileinnly :
"Hat up, hat down. 'Phut 's it I 've
got it."
Then, at the thought of the dusky bat

kitchens and the attics, lit; burst into a
itileiit fit of coughing.

"One hell-hop for us going up with a
bunch of flowers," said Luqueer's meth

"Watch the other sidewalk, Stukey,"
aid Wuttiville. "Ha, what was that'"
"A 'libel) or a Dago."
' 'Correct. ' '
"Nigger up on the delivery wagon,"
said Harrigau, marking it down.
"I say, Stukey, get busy there," said
Wuttiville in a changed, excited tone.
"See something! "
TD I'T Stukey was too overcome by :i
sudden horrible thought to answer,
lie repeatetl to himself:
"Hat up. hat down; that's it, that's
right." He felt of his head and en
iiiuntered his hat and said solemnly,
"hat up." The next moment he re
moed it and gazing solemnly at it in
his lap saitl with etpial conviction, "hat
down." Then he replaced it, tried des
perately to puzzle out a problem that
; hail two such perfectly satisfactory so
lutions. "Nigger up," said Lutpieer joyfully,
"a mammy and two pienninnics on the
other side."
"Five for us," said llnrrigan. "I
say, what are we playing fori A dollar
a coon"
"Make it two," said Wuttiville joy
fully. "Two it is," said Harrigau, nodding
ill around.
"We're out for blood," said Watti
tille, oblivions to the signs of distress
stukey was desperately striving to semi
lum. '" Bring on your friends, we'll take
others on all on! "
Mr. Flint and Mr. Fosdick, two gen
tlemen with business like cordiality, im
mediately insinuated themselves as to
the party, which was presently aug
mented by a military Kiiglishmaii and a
languid bony youth, who rather osten
tatiously ran through his fingers a roll
i of yellow -backed bills.
I "At last! Nigger down," cried Wat-
I tiville. "Stukey, my boy, we're off."
"Nigger up." said the Englishman
in the back. "Two of the beggars on
I the box."
' "Nigger down, chauffeur back of the
! 'bus." said Wuttiville.
"Where!"
"Hold up! "
"Wait a minute."
' ' Nigger down it is. "
"And two just getting off the 'bus."
"Four, uigger down; six. nigger up."
Nigger down."
Suddenly Stukey found the right con
junction of ideas and hastily snatched
oil' his hat. lie glanced at the clock.
It was (he minutes befoie thiee. The
next nionii'ul he dimly perceived the
shining ebony fuce of Mr. .lackson, peel
ing caiefully into the window.
".lust in time," he said to himself
with a gulp of ii'lief, "shave - close

Meanwhile, the count went on briskl.t.
' ' Nigger up. ' '
"Nigger down, a couple of bruisets,
too! "
"Ten nigger tips, ten nigger downs."
"I low about an Octoroon?"
" Not black enough."
"Theie's one."
"Here's a couple more."
The clock rang three and Stukey, re
lieved of all responsibility, burst into a
roar of coughing.
"In fie minutes," he saitl to him
self, wiping the tears from his eyes, "in
lic minutes, they'll come, humlicds of
them, thousands of them, anil all black.
Itig ones and little ones, thin ones ami
fat ones, thousands nnd thousands of
them, marching rigid DOWN the ave
nue, the greatest, grandest, gloriouscst
hoax ever pulled oil'. Then, he added
magnanimously: "I'll tell 'em, tell 'em
all, be generous be noble."
All at once, in the avenue outside was
a sudden stir anil a craning of necks.
Suddenly, above the hum and rattle of
traflic burst the glorious strains.
"Oh, the black four hundred

The next moment, the group about
him was shouting like mad, throwing up
their hats, shouting like bookmakers.

"Ten, fifteen, twenty."
"Foity-two, foity-si., fifty."
" Hundreds of 'em."
"Come on with the smoke."
" Keep a comin'. "
" Hurray! "
" Hurrah! "
"llurroo!" i
Anil suddenly, struggling to tho front
of the window through the crowd that
had pressed beyond him, Stukey saw the
avenue choked with the ranks of the
Dixie Grenadiers Club, marching glori
onsly HI' the street !
TJALF an hour later, as Stukey clung
to the indignant Wuttiville in the
taxi that the sympathetic Uratinigan sent
whirling up town, he said in a feeble
bruised voice:
"I don't understand how'd it all

"Hut 1 had my hat down," said
Stukey, a little doubtfully, "on my
honor, I had my hat down."
"Of course you did so did 1," said
Wattiville with Napoleonic gloom; "but
wo were only two, and there were a bd

"How did you get out of it so
cheaply" said Stukey faintly.
"Wo declared bankruptcy at a thou
