CHAPTER VIII.

- COINCIDENCE got me aboard
the Laughing Lass. I'll tell
.A you how it was. One evening
late I was just coming out Of
dark alley on the Barbary Coast, San
Francisco. You know-the water front,
where you can hear more tongues than
at Port Said, see stranger sights and
meet adventure with the joyous GER
tainty of medieval times. I'd been
down there hunting up man reported
by wharf rat Of my acquaintance to
have just returned from a two years
whaling voyage. He'd been "shang-
haied" aboard, and as matter Of fact
was worth nearly million dollars.
Landed in the city without q cent,
could get nobody to believe him nor
trust him to the extent Of telegram
east. Wharf rat laughed at his yarn,
but believe it was true. Good copy
anyway
Just at the turn of the alley nearly
bumped into two men. On the Bar
barry Coast you don't pass men in mar
row places until you have reconnoiter-
ed a little. pulled up, thanking for
tune that they had not seen me. The
first words were uttered In a voice l
knew well.
You've all heard Of DR.. Karl Angus
tus Schermerhorn. He did some big
things and had in mind still bigger.
I'd met him some time before In con-
nection with his telepathy and wire
less waves theory. 1t was picturesque
stuff for my purpose, but wasn't in
it with what the old fellow had really
done. He showed me - well, that
doesn't matter. The point is, that
good, staid, self conferred, or rather.
semicentered, DR.. Schermerhorn was
standing at midnight in dark alley
on the Barbary Coast in San Francisco
talking to an Individual whose facial
outline at least was not ornamental.
My curiosity or professional instinct,
whichever you please, was all aroused.
I flattened myself against the wall.
The first remark 1 lost. The reply
came to me in a shrill falsetto. So
grotesque was the effect Of this treble

ton"
"The gentleman wants to know If
he can come on deck, sir" saluted an
orderly.
"Waked up, eh? Come on, Barnett.
Help me boost him on deck"
The two officers disappeared to re-
turn in a moment arm in arm with
Ralph Slade.
Nearly twenty-four hours rest and
skillful treatment had done wonders.
He was still a trifie weak and uncer.
tain, was still little glad to lean on
the arms of his companions, but his
eye was bright and alert and his hol'
low cheeks mounted slight color

nett, transformed his appearance and

himself that he had not obeyed his
first impulse to send the castaway for
ward with the men.

ROSenthal'S
Criticism of the Navy has become

Criticism of the Navy has become
so much the fashion recently that
the President some time ago dep.
uted Rear Admiral Converse, now
on the retired list, to 60 into the
question from the standpoint of an
expert and tell the truth for the
benefit of the public. 1t will be
remembered by those who have
followed the naval discussion that
a lot of so.called experts have
made all sort of charges against
the Navy from defective material
to lack of speed and gun practice.
The two latter charges are, as al
most every one knows, unfounded
The American Navy now holds the
record for target practice with al,
most all guns at almost all the dis
tances. Ship for ship, the shoot
ing average is better than in any
nation of the world, and the speed
of the later ships has proved in
each class to be the highest that
could be expected. In fact there
are only two varities of warship
where the American navy has not
kept in the first flight as to speed
This is in some of the very power
full destroyers where the speed
record is held just now by the
German navy and in some of the
fast cruising scout ships recently
turned out by the English Admir-.
atty. These are matters that come
within the ken of the average lay
man. Admiral Converse, however
goes into the moro technical details
of construction. He says that
some of the older ships of the Navy
are undoubtedly not up to the lat.
est models in construction. They
we're experiments in their time as
in reality all warships are. But
the practical lessons of the Russo
Japanese war have been taken into
consideration in all of the later ma
val construction. and as to armol
protection, load line. height o
freeboard and gun position, there
is no fault to be found with any Of
the American ships. Squadron
for squadron, they would be able
to hold their own with any navy o
the world This is good hearing
! coming from a man like Admira
Converse, for he is an officer and {
gentleman and a man who know
his profession infinitely better thar
the professional magazine critic.
