'Ill tell you later. I'm sick now -
answered Eben.
You ten him anything, and it will
be the worse for your Kissed PicketzO.
But seasickness got the better OF
Eben Nash at that moment and Bon
ner rushed to his aid.
in about fifteen minutes, during
which Bonner worked over Eben, and
Picketzo and Hicke stood around grum-
bling at being confined in the same
room with a seasick man, Eben became
better. and all the men went to bed.
Eben pitched about for hours. He
had never known such sickness In his
life. He could not seem to get the up
ger hand of himself in any way, ana
was forced 10 lie awake thinking of all
that had happened.
The mysterious business about the fog
horn worried him greatly. Why should
make him keep his mouth shut about
what he had overheard
What was there about a foghorn TO
make them act so Strangely The horn
had been blowing at intervals through
out the hours that Eben had lain awake.
and each time IL sounded he wondered
why the noise had worked so strangely
on the two men I'm the room with him
He recalled the conversation easily.
Picketzo had said. THAT means rapid
work for US, when Hicke had called his
attention TO the horn
What could that mean" Eben mus
ed. They haven't done any rapid work

Nash had probably tossed about for
three hours or more IN his sickness and
he knew that Bonner. in the bunk be-
low him, was sound asleep. He could
hear Picketzo snoring and thought that
all Of his roonmates were sound asleep.
Re himself had lain quiet for some
time. Wen suppoenly Picketzo's snoring
stopped abruptly and. from his half
closed eyes he saw the little Italian
roll silently from his bunk and say
something In a foreign tongue, in a low
whisper, to Hicke.
The Englishmsn made a soft answer
and Immediately took up the snoring

Nash closed his eyes quickly as ne

He listened for some time TO HicEe S

into nasal drawl and then stop en-

Eben did not dare to move in his
bunk, for he knew that HiCke would
observe. He thought that ne might be
able TO slip out OF the stateroom and
follow Picketzo. but when he came back
20 the realization Of Hicke's presence
he knew that IL would be impossible for
him to outwit ths other watcher:
Suddenly the door opened slowly, with
scarcely a creak, and the head OF Pick
etzo entered the room. The eyes
glanced from one bunk to the other,
Nash could plainly see the whites from
the little light that came through the
open door.
Then the Italian edged himself into
the room and softly closed the door be-

Through half-closed lids Eben noted
that the Italians hands were empty.
