stopping to exchange more words he
passed the two ladies hat in hand, and
bowling rather low, after his manner,
he went quietly downstairs.

peared.

Mrs. Rushmore was more than de-
lighted, but had tact enough not to
make any answer to a speech which
had probably not been meant for her
ears.
Perhaps" she said, you would
rather not go out just yet, my dear"
Margaret was grateful for the sug-
gestion, and they turned back into
their rooms.
Meanwhile Van Torp had reached
the door of the hotel, and found Lady
Maud standing there with her parasol
up, for the sun was streaming in.

"Oh, no." answered Lady Maud, who
was used to Mr.. Van Torp's familiar
vocabulary, why need there be any
trouble? You've not told him I am
coming, you say. Very well If he
sees me suddenly after he has been
on board little while, hen certainly
betray himself. and then I shall be

a marvellous resemblance. for they
say every one has q double some

They used to say, too, that II you
met your double one of you would

things are all stuff and nonsense, Of
course. I was Just thinking. Well"
he continued. dwelling On his favorite
moaosy1lable. ''if yeu decide to come

Lady Maud chose not to ask what

for she had glanced at his face when
he had spoken, and though 1t was half
turned away from her, she saw his
expression, and 1t would have scared
a nervous person. She did not like
him to be in that mood, and was sor-
~ that she had brought him to it
But Mr.. Van Torp, who was q strong
man, and had seen more than one af-
fray in his ranching days, could not
help thinking how uncommonly easy

CHAPTER XII.

On the morning after the transac-
ton last described. Van Torp's atten-
tion was arrested by sensational
"scare-head' about a thief and a ruby
worth $4,000 Some disanected col.
league in London had known, or
cleverly guessed, where the stone was
that had been. stolen from Mr.. Pin
ney's, and had informed the police;
the nice-looking young fellow who
spoke like an English gentleman had
walked directly into the arms of the
plain-clothes man waiting for him on
the pier in New York, the stone had
been found sewn up in his waistcoat,
and his pleasant career of liberty had
ended abruptly in a cell.
Mr.. Van Torp whistIed softly as he
read the account a second time Then
he neatly cut the column out of the
paper, folded it with great precision,
smoothed it with care and placed it in
his pocket-book next to cheap little
photograph of Nine. da Cor6ova as
Juliet" which he had bought in a
music shop in New York the day after
and had carried in his pocket ever
since.
He took up the mutilated newspa-
per and looked UP and down the col
umns, and among other information
which he gathered in few moments
was the fact that Legotheti's yacht
had passed Capt Saint Vincent, going
east owner and party on board" The
previous telegram had not escaped
him, and If he had entertained any
doubts as to the destination of the
Erinna, they vanished now She was
certainly bound for the Mediterranean.
He remembered having heard that
many steam yachts coming from Eng
land put into Gibraltar for coal and
fresh provisions, coal being cheaper
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1910-04-04

there than in French and italian
ports, and he thought 1t very probable
that the Erinna would do the same;
he also made some deductions which
need not be explained yet. The only
one worth mentioning here was that
Logotheti would be likely to hear in
Gibraltar that the ruby had been
found and was on its way back to
England, and that as he would know
that Margaret would be anxious about
it, since he had already given it to
her, he would hardly let the occasion
of communicating with her &c by. As
for writing from Gibraltar to any
place whatsoever IN the hope that q
letter win arrive in less than q week,
It is sheer folly. Mr.. Van ToEp had
never tried It, and supposed 1t pos
sfble, as it looks, but he was telerahfy
sure that Logotheti would telegraph
first, and had perhaps done SO al
ready, for the news of his passing
Cape Saint Vincent was already "a
hours old.
This was precisely what had hap
pened When Mr.. Van Torp opened
his door, he came upon Margaret and
Mrs Rushmore on the landing, on the
point Of going out for a walk, and a
servant mad just brought the prima
donna a telegram which she was read
ing aloud, so that the American could
not help hearing her.
Cruising till wanted" she read
quickly. Ruby found. Address,
yacht Erinna, Naples
She heard Van Torp close his door,
though she had not heard him open it,
and turning round she found herself
face to face with him. Her eyes were
sparkling with anger.
Very sorry" he said. 81 couldn't
help hearing"
Its of no consequence, for 1 should
have told you," Margaret answered
briefly.
He argued well for himself from her
tone and manner, but he chose to
show that he would not force his COM
pany upon her just then, when she
