Punchestown and Pyke, thoroughly
 my Bang, "The Messenger Boy," in a wild endeavor to head off Radnor. In consternation they later discover that instead of enclosing the Radnor bill to Lord Punchestown they have sent one
 of her ladyships. Nothing is left for them to do but try and overtake the
 messenger boy. This they attempt (ac- companied by Nora and her maid) at Brindisi, where Give has embarked for El Bara on a government cruiser and
 where they take passage on the P. x O..
 steamer"
 Tommy Bang is delayed and arrives
 late. There Is but one stateroom un-
 occupied on the steamer and Nora and
 her maid seek accommodations. The
 maid, an old sweetheart of "The Mes-
 senger Boy" meets him and learns that
 he has a new uniform in his bag on the
 steamer. Nora secures this, imper-
 sonates Tommy, and he is elected from
 the steamer as an imposter, after he
 has refused to give up his letter. He
 secures passage on another vessel and
 arrives in Cairo as soon as the others
 In Cairo, a sub-plot Is developed,
 which leads to Tommy Bang discover
 ing his long-lost father in Hooker
 Pasha, the Nile commissioner This leads to the introduction of Mrs. Bang,
 Tommy's mother, into the story The comic complications the authors intro- duce in the scene in Cairo are extreme ly humorous and continue at hot pace till the discovery is made that before the arrival of those who seek Lord Punchestown, he had departed for Paris on official business. This leads to a change of scene to the Paris ex- position, where all complications come to very happy ending for Nora and Radnor.
