young lady that the staterooms on the

The young lady seemed greatly dis

ment he pushed himself to the front
and with the politest of French bows,
said: please excuse me, young lady,
am very much panied to witness
your distress, and should be glad to
assist you. If you will allow me

In modest tones she thanked him
for his kindness and confidingly of.
fered him the ten dollar bill that had
been returned to her by the chamber
maid.
Never mind the money until
know what can do for you"
He thereupon went below. The
sister, he thought, is not responsible
for the sins of her brother; besides,
the making of her acquaintance might
give him better opportunity for dis
covering the whereabouts of the man
he was seeking. In his imagination
he was sure that she was going to
meet him.
This was his opportunity, thought
he. He would ingratiate himself into
the good graces of this young woman
and If possible learn the whereabouts
of her brother.
The oily-tongued detective had no
great difficulty in securing the coveted
prize. Steamboat clerks are always
wise enough to reserve an extra ticket
or two for special purposes.
When Merito returned to the grand
salon and handed the young lady her
tickets she was profuse in her thanks
and expressed her deep obligation. AS
she held the tickets between her
jeweled fingers she beamed a smile
and displayed a set of pearly white
teeth, encircled by pair of ruby lips.

AS these thoughts came meandering
through his brain he saw In his eager
ness the opportunity of his life. He
would somehow be instrumental In

He felt sure that he could trust to her
generous heart to forgive him for de

they went at once to the United States

thing She was a young and sensitive
maiden who had courageously ven.
tured from her fathers home with
the purpose of meeting a much loved
but hayward brother. How, then,
could he help sympathizing with her?
Even though his representations in
regard to himself were falsely made
for the purpose Of obtaining her con.
fidence, he believed he was sufficiently
shrewd to square himself with her at
the proper time.
AS deception is ofttimes a part OF
the detectives stock in trade, he
thought there could be no great harm
in 1t after all was understood II
seems that he told her the secret of
his being the son of an Italian noble
man of great wealth and that he was

While the story he told was wholly
false, he was quite good looking

From what occurred II was apparent
that the young woman herser was
somewhat impressed and quite uncer.
