Inez Shows Her Hand.
First and foremost, Miss Ilington,
said the captain OF the Albany after
Annette's party had boarded the
cruiser, now that you are once more
safe, permit me to return to you the
map of the Lost Isle, which have ex.
amined with interest. Following your
directions, | subjected it to heat, and
brought out the hidden latitude and
longitude-lS degrees 30 minutes north
and 1913 degrees and 40 minutes west"
He paused moment. DO you know"
he said, there's something about that
location that sticks in my mind-some
vague rumor.
The isle contains quicksilver
mines" said Annette
It's not that" returned the COM
mander, It was merly the locality
! traced it on our map. It was about
there that the government" He
broke off, checking himself quickly.
All, yes, I remember now he said,l

said Annette, secreting them In the
bosom Of her dress.

tain. Il have to say further that the
officers quarters have been placed at
your disposal until we reach La Plaza.
There you can get train.
IT'S short ride on that road to
Chantillo," went on the captain, "and
at Chantillo you can catch the boat
for most of the Lower California and
California ports"
Across country Hernandez, Ponto
and the Brute were travelling hard.
The indomitable will of Hernandez
kept them ever going on and on.
You understand" cried he, I'VE
must make La Plaza before the Al
bany gets there. We go cross-coun-
try-she goes by shore. I'll knife you
both If you fail me at this time"
Finally, on a moonlight night, Her
nandez halted at forest opening that
looked down toward shore. He
glanced across the sea.
1T is she-the Albany" he cried;
look, Ponto. She is at hand. It 10 a

to meet them. Seeing the Brute, he
drew back in terror.
1T is nothing, friend" said Herman
DEE, here is a coin. Where lies La
Plaza?"
But five miles farther enclose by
shore" returned the native.
"A bagatelle," said Hernandez,
come on"
Meantime Inez Castro, on board the
Albany, had become unusually active.
She had ascertained the time of arr.
val of the Albany at La Plaza-the
schedule time.
Joe Welcher bunked in with Neal
in the quarters of the warrant off,
GERS. 1t was nearly evening when
Inez Castro, using Joe as usual to do
her bidding, whispered in his ear.
Joe, like whipped dog, did, through
fear of her, what he otherwise would
have been afraid to do He slipped
into Meals quarters, and laid his
hands upon an object or two, twisted
them into a little bundle and took
them back to Inez Inez took them to
her cabin.

Neal and small guard OF marines

Annette laughed when she saw the
station-laughed more when she saw
the train. It consisted of the sorriest
engine she had ever seen-also the
most diminutive and battered coach.

He woke with jolt. 1t was heavy

and brought him to his senses. He

His answer was sheer. Herman.

Down on the wharf Annette Ilington
and her party were about to embark
in one of the launches Of the cruiser
Albany that lay still anchored in the
harbor. In Annettes party were
Mademoiselle Irene Courtier. Mrs.
Hardin, Meals mother; Neal Hardin
himself, warrant officer upon the
Albany, and the surgeon of the cruis-
or. There were one or two other men
in uniform, an assistant surgeon ros-
sibly, and an ensign. There were
bluejackets.
But above all, there were natives
galore. Natives by the dozens, by the
hundreds, and all in rags. The whole
village had turned out to do homage.
THE little white angel" murmured
grateful mothers, sinking down in An.
nette's path and kissing her dress as
she went by.
Unseen by any of the party-save
by Joe Welcher, rnez swerved aside
and slipped note into the hands of
a native, and handed him a coin.
Then she leaped lightly into the
launch and the launch steamed away
followed by the cheers and the tears
Of the Tortugans on the wharf.

The Brute ran from his position in the

twist or two OF one hand tossed the
felled trees from the track.

He whistled softly. A third figure

Hernandez broke open the door by
means of his usual agency-the Brute,

as she was in the car, Annette could
hear what the instrument said, for,
singularly enough, Hernandez, when
he first called, used the Spanish
tongue; later he clicked in English
words. 1t was clear that Ponto was
at the other end of the wire, and some
where near La Plaza.
