the most luxurious abode ever inhabit-
cd by any mortal creature. He was n
young man Of quick perceptions, and
in a flash there came TO him an educa
ton in the art of living. He became
conscious of a new kind of envy.
Melnor's man made Il large supply of
champagne cocktail, a delicacy never
before presented to the palate Of Bill
Doyle. He had the misfortune to like
it exceedingly. The quantity which he
swallowed under the pressure of Mel
nor's hospitality did not disturb his
head, but it upset all his notions about
drinking. He had never liked liquor,
and beer had appealed to him merely
as good thing on a hot day, but he
fancicd that champagne cocktail might
be acceptable at all times and seasons.
1t will not be worth while to describe
the dinner for eight. When Doyle learn
ed that the other four We're to be la
dies connected with the theatrical pro-
fession, he had visions of wild revelry
such as he had sometimes read about
in the newspapers. AS q matter of

might have been anywhere that he
could imagine.
Still there was plenty of fun. Every
body did or said something clevcr--ev-
erybody except Bill whose native wit
deserted him because he was all the
time trying to be like the others. Yet
they strove to make him think that he
was very clever indeed, and sometimes,
slightly assisted by the champagne,
they nearly succeeded.
The pretty girl who would have smil-
ed upon Allen smiled radiantly upon
Bill and by . o'clock his heart was like
a redhot coal. Yet he told himself that
he was having the time of his life and
that it was great good fortune to be
with such people and to get Il peep into
another and a brighter sphere.
He learned that Reeves was not q
New Yorker, but Spectator from Chi
cago, who had recently made himself
famous by losing a vast sum of money.
Reeves did not seem to be worrying
about his misfortune and therefore Bill,
who had ideas about fortitude, decided
that he must be truly great man.
These facts were communicated to
Bill by Miss Maynard, the young wom-

Melnor is patriot. The champagne
Aat he has drunk to the health of I'm
sde Sam and the confusion of all Span
tards would float 4 small gunboat. He
seized Bill by the hand, pulled him
into the private office and two minutes
later had insisted upon taking the
search for Tom Grady entirely into his
own hands.
While the investigation was making
two young gentlemen named Stratton
and Reeves called upon Melnor and
were duly presented to Bill. where
upon Messrs. Stratton and Reeves
swore in the name of all the gods at
snce that they were proud to take the
'iand of Gunncr's Mate Doyle of the
Raleigh.
1t was not n soft hand, by the way,
but 1t was clean one and Doyle from
Top to toe-or keel to truck, if you pre-
fer the phrase-was n neat, natty
young sailorman.
"Mr. Doyle's going to dinner with us
tonight" said Melnor. "Allen's been
called away. There's vacant chair"
"Out Of sight" exclaimed Stratton
and Reeves
Doyle turned very red In his heart
lie wanted to 30. He had taken a sail
or's strong and sudden liking for Mel
nor, and he knew that in his company
he should see great things. Yet he was
afraid-a queer word 10 use in connec-
ton with Bill Doyle.

fellow. who earned little but saved
much. Bill was particularly anxious
to get the money on the next day. for
the 500 room ut the hospital might be
taken any time. and the other good
ones cost more.
The sailor could not mention such
matters to these Wall street men. They
might think that he wanted them to
help him ont. He made them under
stand. however. that finding Grady
was very important.
Upon hearing this. Melnor called a
trusted clerk.
"Jim." said lie. II want you to find
Tom Grady. who used to work for Il
tailor in this building. l want the adj
dress by 10 O'Clock tomorrow. Don't
let anything stop YOU. You'll probably
need some of Walters sleuths"
Ter being the head of a private detec-
tive agency. Here's some money to
pay the freight"
He handed Jim Il bit of paper that he
had torn off a pad. Doyle saw $500
Eritten on it in blue pencil.
Bill Doyle, gunner's mate from the
Raleigh, strayed into the office of j.
Bolton Melnor, broker, on Nassau
street near Wall. The tar was looking
for his friend Tom Grady, who had
formerly worked in that place.
The building had been remodeled and
improved to the extent that none of
the old tenants could afford to live in
it, but with Il sailors instinct for To-
cality Bill had found the exact spot
where Tom Grady once worked.
Bill saw that the channel buoys had
been shifted, and he came in with only
enough steam to give him storage
way. He would have put about hasti
ly had not Mclnor CHANGED to get an
eye on him.
The idea Of spending 5000 to find a
man for the purpose of borrowing S15
from him made the sailor feel Il faint
ness in his solar plcxus.
1T amt right for me to let you do
this he began, but Melnor would not
hear Il word. He had q gently COM
handing way which fitted exactly to
the sailors trained obedience. From
that moment Gunncr's Mate Doyle was
as completely under the sway of Mel
nor as if he had been the admiral.
Two electric cabs took the party up
town, Doyle riding with Melnor to the
building where he had his rooms.
Reeves and Stratton were to be there
at I. The rooms appeared to Doyle as

dead. The note was very kind and po-
lite. but it did not mention any more
dinner parties.
So that was the end. Nothing in
New York was too good for Bill, and
this is what he had got:
In his brain = vision of wealth and
luxury and Il troublesome new idea of
life
In his stomach Il craving for terrupin
and champa@ UC cocktails.
IL his heart Il hopeless and absurd
passion for Girl who was not what he
thought size was and would not have
been Il GOOD mate for him even if she
had been.
In his soul a new ideal Of character
and conduct founded upon an cXhibi-
ton OF fOOlishncsS by born gambler.
These things had cost him SO, which
had nominally purchased roses. He
was just so much poorer in pocket,
though something like a hundred had
been spent upon him in the last few
hours.
The only thing he had gained was
the knowledge that Tom Grady was
