COINCIDENCE got me aboard
In the Laughing Lass. I'll tell
n you how it was. One evening
late was just coming out of a
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 two years
whaling voyage. He'd been "shang-
haied" aboard, and as a matter of fact
was worth nearly a million dollars.
Landed in the city without a cent,
could get nobody to believe him nor
trust him to the extent of a telegram
east Wharf rat laughed at his yarn,
but I believe it was true. Good copy
anyway
Just at the turn of the alley l nearly
bumped into two men. On the Bar
barry Coast you don't pass men in mar
row places until you have reconnoiter-
ed little. l pulled up, thanking for
tune that they had not seen me. The
first words were uttered in a voice
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
1t 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 a 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 l lost. The reply
came to me in shrill falsetto. So
grotesque was the effect of this treble
