| at any rate. You can see Beatrice at any
| time. 1t is | who need you most now"
He looked around at the splendid apart
ment; he looked at the woman whose
! fingers. glittering with jewels. rested
upon his shoulders Then he thought of
Beatrice in her shabby black gown and
wan little face, and very gently he re-
moved her hands.
NO" he said. 81 do not think that you
need me any more than need you. This
is caprice of yours. You know it and
know 1t. It's worth while to play with
one another?"
Her hands fell to her sides. She turned
half away. but she said nothing. Taver-
make, with sudden impulse which had
in II nothing of passion-very little, in
deed of affection-lifted her fingers to
his lips and passed out of the room. He
| descended the stairs, filled with wonder
full sense of elation, n buoyancy of spirit
which he could not understand, AS he
walked blthely TO his hotel, however, he
began to realize how much he had
dreaded this interview. He was free
man, after all.
For over an hour Tavernake endured
the smells and the bad atmosphere OF that
miserable little music-hall, watching
eagerly each time the numbers were
OF the program the manager appeared in
front.

81 regret very much to inform you that
owing to the indisposition of the young
lady, Miss Beatrice Franklin and her
father are unable to appear tonight
! have pleasure in announcing an extra
turn, namely the Sisters De We're in their
wonderful burlesque act"
There was a murmur of disapprobation
mingled with some cheering. Tavernake
left his place and walked around to the
back of the hall Presently the manager
came out to him.
81 am sorry to trouble you, SIR" Taver-
make said, D. l heard your announce
ment just now from the front. Can you
give me the address OF Professor Frank

TO go and see them"
The manager pointed to the STAGE

This man will give 1t to you," he an
nounced, shortly. It's quite close.

know how the young lady is"
Tavernake procured the address and set
out in the taxlcab which he had kept
waiting. The driver listened to the direc-
tion doubtfully.
ITS a poor sort of nelghborhood, SIR"
he remarked.
We've got to go there" Tavernake told
him.
They reached it in a few minutes, a
miserable street indeed, Tavernake
knocked at the door of the house to
which he was directed with sinking
heart A man, collarless and half dressed.

Boy Stowaway From Jamaica
Finds United States No
"Fairyland."

During most OF the is years Of his life
Jimmy" Williams has been playing be-
meath the tropical suns on the sands OF
his native land the Island OF Jamaica.
Between dips In the deep blue waters OF
the ocean, he dreamed wonderful dreams
of the "fairyand" called the United
States.
Clad in nondescript garments Jim
Rugged sizzling radiator in Captain
Tollefsens quarters this morning. His
rolling eyes were filled with tears. All his
hopes have been shattered His wonder
full dreams have all been dispelled. In
their place relgns dense gloom The big
fly in Jim's ointment is the weather.
"Ah'se nevah knew sub. that thar war
such cold places in the wurd befo'," he
said The snow on the ground flabber-
gasted him. Inspector Busha, of the inn
migration service, explained to him that
1t fell from the skies. But Jim was skep-
tical and he nalvely asked Busha II he
was sailor.
When Jim" slowed away he wore less
than Eve did in the Garden of Eden In
the hold of the steamer he made himself
a nest of straw beneath punches of
bananas. A few crusts Of bread and some
Of the fruit was all he had to eat dur
ing the five days required to make the
run to this port from Jamaica
He was discovered when the longshore-
men removed the bananas. "He was too

who discovered him, so | called him De-

THE HOUSE IN TENTH STREET

THE hOCSE IN TENTH STREET
Home again The great ship had passed
Sandy Hook and the outer and the inner
bay. UP the Hudson River she had
slowly nosed her way, conveyed by tugs,
and lodged by ferries and smaller craft,
until the welcoming flag OF the docking
pier had signaled the journey done Then
came the long, tedious wait while the
vessel was warped carefully into her slip
minutes which seemed hours TO those
whose friends awaited them at the land
ing. AT last, however, came the welcome
clang of the lower gangway and the pas
sengers began to stream impatiently
down.
Rutherford was detained but a moment
by the customs Officers. They seemed 10
take him pretty much at his word and he
hurried beyond the retaining ropes with a
determined set of his eyes ahead.
He had scarcely closed his eyes, all the
night before, with the memory OF that
last tableau in the royal stateroom ever
rising I'm front of him. He felt that he
could never trust womankind again and
that ne never wanted 10 set eyes again
upon any OF his shipboard acquaintances.
The very name of the ship was anathema
to him.
He had trusted-he had even loved. In
spite OF his trust-snd he had been thor
oughly disillusioned The sight Of the
familiar bustling streets of New York
made him feel lonely indeed He must
get 10 work and forget all this Ike an
eYll dream. He remembered, with breath
of relief that he had a controlling inter

Into either one of them he could have
put both feet. Strings from the banana
stalks were used for laces. The peg tops
OF the trousers obvated the necessity for
socks An old, oll-soaied sweater that
has not always been as big as It looked
on "Jim" came next. The coat that
topped off all was almost beyond descrip-
ton. II reached to his knees, was rolled
UP at the sleeves and could have been
doubled over his chest and buttoned in
back 1t had as many colors as the
famous coat that Joseph wore. In this
uniform Jimmy" Williams is going back
home, never more to roam.
