As some most fair and favored isle,
Surrounded by wavcleSs sea
And bright meath heavens sunnies

From where depends the cold north sky
Looks out with hope the day will bring
The Southern seas tranquility.
Beneath Il sky all dense and dark.

The clouds that hovered Ger my bark,

The fairy isle is still afar.
Afar the skies with sunshine blest;
But Hope will be my guiding star
And Love will aid me in the quest.

 There in faded colors was tattooed design on the white skin. Admeh made out the ward "Dotty'' framed in a border of twisted snakes. His quest was done. Faint! weary. lan- guid. he prepared to get away before the assault was discovered. The door opened; some one caught Adneh by the arm. With no more fight in him, he raised himself to one knee and rec ognized the attendant. the sight of whom had before so nearly sobered his drunken opponent.
 What the devil" said the new conner, and stopped as his eye caught that mark on the arm Then he bent down, passed his finger over the de- sign, studied it, and peered into the white, senseless face behind the yell low beard.
 My work-it is the very mani" he exslaimed in tones of the greatest in- terest. Turning to Admeh he asked:
 Now, why did you want to know about that mark, and what are you scrapping for?"
 What do you know about him ?" re- torted Admeh.
 Story for story" said the attend ant
 Story for story. swapped sight un- seen," agreed Admeh. "But let's get him out of here, first, because he's in a pretty bad fix between his fight and his jag. Together they carried him to dressing room laid him on a bench and closed the curtain. Here Adnneh's last spark of strength left him: he collapsed in a heap on the aeors--With practiced hands the attendant set out to revive them both. In ten minutes the man of mystery slept heavily, stu pidly on the bench, and AdTneh was sitting against the wall breathing cool relief from the outer air. Briefly he told of his singular errand, emitting, the item about the legacy.

What d'you think of this?-I | tattooed that name and mark on this 1 fellows arm. and I know the history | of it, but he has no idea to this day how it ever came | there, nor who 'Doty' is, nor why I did it, nor anything at all about it. He was the hero of as queer a yarn as l ever heard, and he knew no more about it all the time than the 1 babe unborn"
 He rang an electric bell; boy an- 1 swered.
 "Tell the boss to send for the extra man." he said. 'Pm done up for to- night, and I'm going to lay off for a i while.

 With that she pushed him into the doorway and was gone.
 With the enthusiasm of an amateur detective Admeh Drake paid his dollar for admission and passed through two ante-rooms into the artificially tropi- cal atmosphere. ~
 For the first time in many days he took off his wrinkled, creased clothes. Pausing on the balcony without the door, he surveyed the carpeted, gaud- fly decorated apartment below. It was midnight, the busiest hour of the twen- ty-four at the baths. His eyes ranged over group sitting tip in towel robes, chatting drowsily over drunken satyr thrustihg his heavy limbs from under the covers and singing a sleepy tune over two others sunk in stupor. Be- yond them was a group of jockeys, who had come to reduce weight; all were young, small, keen-eyed; each was puffing huge cigar. In that bow CT of transformation, where all men stand equal as at the Judgment, their
 
 towel, he found it hard to pick his man, yet no one could he see with the clay yellow hair and beard that marked the mysterious person for whom he was searching.
 Following others who slipped down the stairs in the single leveling gar ment, Admeh went across the main sa- loon through a double glass door and into an ante chamber considerably hot ter where men were 1olliI1g back, wet and shiny, in canvas chairs. He saw the rubbers working in the room be- yond, saw that the men under their hands were black and brown of hair and beard.
 To the right another glass door caught his eye. He passed and gasped at the heavy overpowering tempera | ture. His glasses, to which he had chung with the instinct of a nearsighteC man, burned on his nose. Men, glis- | tening and dripping. sat all along the wall, their feet in little tubs of water In the corner sat the mysterious stranger of the yellow hair and beard He was singing sentimentally Admeh practiced in the lore of intoxication watched him. "The jag's growing" he sand to himself. In fact, the fumes oi liquor. heat driven. were mounting | steadily. Crossing the room, so as tC command the strangers right side, hC saw round his upper arm black rub | Der bandage, like those used to con- fine varicose veins. The problem re-
 solved itself into a question of tearing
 off that bandage.
 The man of yellow beard sang maud. lin Orpheum songs and prattled O.
 many things. He cursed San Fran
 cisco. He told of his amours. He of
 fered to fight or wrestle with any ont
 in the room. "A chance though Admeh as he took the challenge. Btu | in a moment more the drunken mar
 was running again on love tack, witt
 the winds of his imagination blowing free. Nevertheless. this challenge gave Admeh an idea What he could no | accomplish by diplomacy. he coulC seize by force. In that method all mus | depend upon the issue of a moment If he could tear away the bandage ir the first dash he would win. But lei | the struggle last more than a moment

and others would intervene; then he would be thrown out and the chance would be gone. Mentally he measured bodies against the stranger man for man, he saw that both being sober. he himself was badly overmatched: Broader and taller by many inches, the stranger was of thick, knotty limbs and deep chest; ;Admeh, himself, was ali cowboy nerve and wire, but slight and out of condition. It was bull vs. coyotte.
 "The question is," thought Admeh, "can I and his jag lick him and his muscle?"
 The stranger, singing again, lurched along the hot tiling to another room. Admeh gasped like a hooked trout as he followed through the door. It was the extra hot room where the mercury registered 160 degrees. The strangers bristles began to subside and his lips crept together. The amateur detective drew nearer, and languid as he was with the terrific heat, gathered his force for the attempt. At that moment an attendant with trays of ice water slouched in on his felt shoes. Admeh slipped back into the chair.
 This entrance had a most surpris- | ing effect on him of the yellow beard. Some emotion, which Admeh took to be fear or anxiety, struggled to break through the veil of his debauch; he stared with bleary, but intent eyes. | In a moment he was lurching for the door. Glad of the relief from that overwhelming heat, Admeh followed The trail led through the anteroom, past the rubbers and their benches 1 through another double glass door. A rush of steam logged his spectacles; when it cleared a little, he saw dimly through the hot vapor that he was in | a long, narrow closet, banked on one side by benches and pipes which were vomiting clouds of steam. Cropping from one side to the other, he found that they were quite alone.
 With no further hesitation, Admeh rushed on his man and grasped for the right arm.
 By the fraction of an inch he missed his hold. The stranger, with a quick ness amazing for one in his condition and what was more surprising | out a word-lashed out and caugh Admeh a blow under the chest whicl whirled him back on the hot benches and fairly jerked his spectacles iron his nose. The issue was on, and i was first honors for the stranger. Un. steady on his legs, but still determin' ed, Admeh closed again, ducked undel a ponderous blow and grappled round ! the waist. He managed to get on' hand on the bandage, but in no wis l could he tear it away, for the strange held him in a bear grip tight abou the neck. So they struggled ant l grunted and swayed through tn, misty clouds from the hot benches t' the slippery floor, and back to tn, benches again Their bodies, wha
 with the exertion and the steam, rar rivulets; their throats were gasping once, twice, they staggered the rooms length. Admeh was beginning to fee his breath and his senses going to- gether, when the grasp about his necl slackened in tension.
 'I and the jag win,' he thought with what sense was left in him. Ht gathered his strength into a last car
 fridge, and gave a heave and a fling | they went down on the floor with wet slap, Admeh above. He felt his
