when We make port an she goes
huntin' for your grave"
That's So" agreed Brundage, de-
jectedy. I'VE got to think that over,
Bill"
Think it over yourself" retorted
the aggrieved Mr.. Prout; but don't
come any nonsense over me, for
won't stand it,"
The Arklam was nearing Chicago
when Capt. Brundage, sitting alone
in his cabin and figuring desperately
on some means of escape from the
net fate had thrown around him,
looked up i'll surprise as Miss Polly
entered and closed the door uehind
her with an emphatic slam That
done, she sat down and surveyed her
Quondam suitor with malicious eyes.
Brundage stared back with sickly
smile, wondering inwardly what her
visit might portend lie was not
left long in doubt.
She suddenly stretched forth a slim,
white hand, and tore the black beard
from his face. Then she set her little
foot upon it and spoke with much
JUNCTION.
What an awful silly you are, Jim
Brundage, to think that you could pull
the wool over my eyes"
The captain wagsed his head dis
mally
"All right, Polly" he said you've
got me beat. What do you reckon
to do?"
IF | was a man said the girl,
scornfully, I'D thrash you well, but
suppose | must get satisfaction an
other way. What hurts me most
isn't your falseness. but the idea thai
you considered me such fool I've
found out all about you, and unless
you want your wife to know every
thing, you'll do as | say.
when you passed yourself off as a
single man you showed me your
handbook and calculated that $500
would start us nicely in housekeeping.
Now, when we reach Chicago, Jimmy
dear, you'll go straight to the bank,
draw $3.50 and hand it over to me.
Then I'll say good by and you can
thank your stars for getting off so
easily
The unmasked conspirator swOre
bitterly and protested fervently, but
Miss Polly was adamant and he finally
agreed to her terms. His disclosure
to Mr.. Prout of the conditions upon
which he had surrendered was re-
ceived by that unfceling seaman with
hoarse laugh, which was distinctly
aggravating to his commanders trou-
bled mind
The Arklam lay at the Clark street
dock with Miss Antrim seated in the
captains cabin placidly awaiting his
return from the bank. Beside her
laughed Mr.. William Prout, smoking
the pipe of peace. Brundage entered
with look Of intense gloom over
shadowing his countcnance, and sig
nailed the mate to retire Miss Polly
waved her hand in dissent,
Stay where YOU are" she said, ge
nally. Count out the money, Jim,
and hurry up
The mate grinned broadly as his
skipper luggcd out the wel-known
pocketbook, and. signing deeply, hand
ed $3.50 in United States currency to
his female Nemesis. Polly beamed
graciOusly upon the uncheerful siver.
That's a good boy, jim" she said.
swcetly. 'and now we'll go ashore
happy. BY the way, it may interest
you to know that Mr.. Prout and !
mean to set up housekeeping on the
strength of your kind gift
The captains emotion was too deep
for mere words to express. He rose
to his feet, still staring helplcssly, as
Miss Antrim, leaning on the arm OF
the gratified mate, tripped merrily
along the gang plank to the wharf

"An' that's the kind | amt" re-
joined the mate tartly. so mebbe
you'll stow this here moralisin' bust
ness an hand over the coin, so as
eve .ything II be accordin' to agree

The skipper of the steamer Arklam
muttered something uhcomplimentary
under his breath, but producing a
bulky pocketbook extracted several
bills therefrom and passed them to
the mate, who thrust them into his
pocket and faced his superior with a
satisfied smirk.
Now that's settled, let's run over
your scheme again, SO as ! can get
my right bearin's," he said pleas
antly.
when we get to Buffalo you fix
yourself up with phony beard an
wig. an if Miss Antrim comes askin'
for you I'm to tell her Capt. Brundage
died very sudden in Chicago, an
there's new skipper in charge"
Don't forget as I'm supposed to
be deaf and dumb warned the cap
tain. IF she once heard my voice it
'ud queer the whole game
"Oh, aw right" responded the mate
"Only she must be Il bigger fat-head
than she looks if she swallows that
Who'd ever believe as a company 'ud

shes got to believe it, returned
the captain. Anyway, if she sees
me at all. it'll be only for a few min
utes, and the news of my death i'll
upset her so that she won't stop to
figure out them little details"
1T wouldn't upset me-" retorted the
mate. Seems like she oughter be
joyful to hear it. if she's got any
sense"
'Thatll be all from you" growled
Brundage in high dudgeon. Just hold
your jaw and do as you're told
Shortly after the Arklam tied up at
the Buffalo docks she was boarded
by a buXom young damsel with de-
termined chin and a pair of snappy
black eyes. The watchful mate
greeted her at the gang plank, and
she acknowledged the salutation with
gracious smile.
Good morning, Mr.. Prout," she
said. Is Capt. Brundage around?"
The mate twisted his features into
a becoming semblance of grief
I'm sorry to say that I've got bad
news for you, Miss Antrim" was the
response He hesitated and shook his
heal sadly.
Whats the trouble?" inquired the
girl, her face IA shade paler at the
sight of the mates dolorous visage

Worse than that, miss" returned
the mate in a hoarse whisper Hes
Very bad-that is, ! mean he amt
now. He's gone, miss, gone for

The girl drew a sharp breath
"What!" she gasped, you don't mean
TO say"
"'rhat he's dead, miss; yes, that's

Miss Antrim dabbed handkerchief
hastily across her eyes. How did
it happen?' she asked. why, he
he was all right when he left here on
his last voyage"
"Step into the cabin" requested the
willy Mr.. Prout, AN I'll tell you all
about it
The girl followed him, and seating
herself, prepared to listen to the
mates doleful narrative.
