CHAPTER XIV.

Mid October. The Queen Of the Fleet,
the finest transport of the Pacific serv-
ice, thronged with boys in blue at last
ordered on to Manila, lay at the wharf
at Honolulu, awaiting her commanders
orders to cast loose. In strong force
and with stentorian voices, the Prime
val Dudes joined in rollicking chorus
to the crashing accompaniment of their
band, and, when they could take time
to rest, the crowd ashore set up cheer.
The Hawaiian national band, in spotlcss
white, forming huge and melodious cir
Gle on the wharf, We'd with the musi-
clans from the states in the spirit and
swing of their stirring airs aloha
De! Aloha Del" chorused the surgina
throng, at1oat and ashore, as wreaths
and garlands-the leis of the islanders
were twined or hung about some "a
vorite officer or favored man. The
troops still held to service in Hawaii
shouted goodwill and good-by to those
ordered on to the Philippines. The
Dudes Of the Queen, and the lads from
the prairies and the mountains on other
transports anchored in the deep but
narrow harbor, yelled soldierly con-
dolence to those condemned to stay.
The steam of the 'scape pipe roared
loudly and belched dense white clouds
on high, swelling the uproar. Dusky
little Kanaka boys, diving for nickels
and padding tireless about the ship,
added their shrill cries to the clamor.
The captain, in his natty uniform of
blue and gold, stepped forth upon the
bridge to take command, and raised his
banded cap in recognition of the con-
slant cheer from the host ashore and
the throng of blue shirts on the fore
castle head. Then arose another shout,
as veteran officer, in the undress uni
form of a general, appeared upon that
sacred bound, and, bowling to the
crowd, was escorted by the captain to
the end overlooking the animated scene
below; and then the signal was given,
the heavy lines We're cast off and hauled
swiftly in, the massive screw began
slowly to churn the waters at the stern,
and gently, almost imperceptibly at
first, the Queen slid noiselessly along
the edge of the dock, to the accompani-
ment of little yolley of flowers and
garlands tossed from eager hands, and
cheer of godspeed from the swarm of
upturned faces. And then there up
rose another shout, shout of mingled
merriment, surprise and applause;
for all on sudden there darted mp the
stairway from the crowded promenade
deck to the sacred perch above, defiant
of the lettered warning: Passengers
are not allowed upon the bridge" q
dainty vision in filmy white, and all in
the next moment there appeared at the
generals side, smiling, bowling, blow
ing kisses, waving adieux, all sparkle,
animation, radiance and rejoicing, be-

now officially proclaimed a deserter.
But Armstrong heard more tales of
Witches devotions to him in his i'll
ness, and the slow convalescence that
ensued, noted how the boys eyes fol-
lowed her about the deck, and how
many time he would seek her side,
even when other men were reading,
walking or chatting with her. Arm
strong looked with wonderment that
was close allied to incredulity and pain.
Was it possible that this blithe lad, who
had won such a warm interest in the
heart of such girl as Amy Lawrence,
could be forgetful of her, faithless to
her, and fascinated now by this selfish
and shallow butterfly? 1t was incred-
ible!
But was it? The days had grown hot
ter, the nights closer, and the air be-
tween decks was sitting when the sea
rolled high and closed the ports. Off
GERS had taken to snoozing up on deck
in steamer chairs. By an unwritten
law the port side of the promenade
deck was given up to them after II at
night; but the women folk had the run
of the starboard side at any hour when
the crew were not washing down decks.
Armstrong had been far forward about
two o'clock one breathless night to see
for himself the condition of things in
the hospital under the forecastle. The
main deck was crowded with sleeping
forms of soldiers who found it impos-
sible to stand the heat below; so on his
return, instead of continuing along the
gangway, he decided to climb the iron
ladder from the main to the promenade
deck. 1t would land him at the forward
end of the starboard side. There he
could smoke cigar in peace and quiet.
1t was high time everybody was asleep.
| But as his head and eyes reached tho
level of the deck he became suddenly
aware of a couple huddled close to-
| gether in the shelter of canvas
screen, and under the steps leading
aloft to the bridge. He knew Gray's
voice at once, and Gray was pleading.
| He knew her tones of old, ard she was
imperative, and listening with obvious
| impatience, for, almost at the instant
of his arrival she spoke, low, yet dis
tinctly: do as I say; do as beg you
when we reach Manila, and then come
and see how | can reward"

Of Housing Conditions and Tenement
Laws In Leading American Cities" II Is
pointed out that few cities outside Of New
York have a tenement house problem. as
in most Of them the tenement house as
known In New York does not exist. the poor
people living In small two-story houses
each containing two families. The only
cities with tenements similar to those
here are Boston. Cincinnati. Jersey City
and Hartford. Neither Chicago nor Phila-
delphia has a tenement house problem worthy
TO be called such. and the only city whose
tenement conditions approach those here
Is Boston. but even there the six and seven-
story tenement so common in New York
does not exist and the laws relating to tene-
ments on the whole are an Improvement
on the Jaws here.
The laws Of Buffalo and Philadelphia In
regard TO light and air are pointed out par
tcularly for their good results. The Phla-
delrhia laws provide that shafts and courts
shall not be less than eight feet wide and
II between two houses they must he at least
twelve feet and open on one side from bottom
TO top. These laws are contrasted with
the present laws here which permit instead
Of wide shafts. mere Sits Of 20 inches and
60 feet long and closed In on all four sides
The report will be submitted TO the Lseis-
lature as showing the precedents for proSr es-
