Havana. I want to land somewhere
farther east, and want you to help

Mr.. EnriQuez frowned thoughtfully.

the room. When he returned he ex-

He has relatives In Cuba and he agrees
to help you If he can. His name is
Alvarado." Writing an address upon
card, he handed 1t to O'Reilly. "Go
to him, tell him what you have told me,
and do as he directs. Another thing,
don't, return here unless 1t is neces-
sary; otherwise when you land in Cuba
you may have cause to regret It."
Doctor Alvarado, high type Of the
Cuban professional man, was expect
ing O'Reilly. He listened patiently to
his callers somewhat breathless re-
cital.
"You do well to avoid the cities
where you are known" he agreed. "But
Just how to reach the insurrectos-"
'If you'd merely give me letter
saying I'm a friend"
The doctor promptly negatived this
suggestion. "Surely you don't think it
can be done as easily as thatf" he In
qulred. 'Tn the first place, wherever
you land, you will be watched and
probably searched. Such letter. II

tale Mr.. Enriquez inquired:
"But how do you expect me to help

II want your advice more than your
help, although you might tell me where

Enriquez eyed his caller keenly.
''That information would be very well
worth having" said he. "But, you un-
derstand, we know little about what Is
going on in Cuba-far less than the
Spaniards themselves. I'm afraid I
can't help you."
"You don't take me for a spy, do
your" Johnnie asked, with his friendly
grin.
"Ah! You don't look like one, but
we never know whom to trust. This
young lady in whom you are inter-
ested, who Is she2"
"Her name is Varona; Miss Rosa

OReilly spent that evening in writ
ing long letter to Rosa Varona.
Other letters went forward by sue
ceedlng posts, and there was no doubt
now that O'Reilly's pen was tipped
with magicI He tingled when he re-
read what he had written. He bade
Rosa prepare for his return and their
immediate marriage.
O'Reilly's love was unlimited; his
trust in the girl was absolute. He
knew, moreover, that she loved and
trusted him. This, to be sure, was a
miracle-a unique phenomenon which
never ceased to amaze him. He did
not dream that every man had felt the
same vague wonder.
And so the time passed rapidly. But,
strange to say, there came no answer
to those letters. OReilly cursed the
revolution which had made communi-
cation so uncertain; at length he
cabled, but still the days dragged on
with no result, Gradually his impa-
thence gave way to apprehension.
Great was his relief, therefore, when
one day worn, stained envelope ad'
dressed in Rosa's hand was laid upon
his desk. The American stamp, the
Key West postmark, looked strange
but Her first letter. O'Reilly Won

The Quest Begins.

When O'Reilly had finished his sec
ond reading of the letter there were
fresh blots upon the pitifully untidy
pages. 'T write nicely, only the ink Is
poor" 'There is little Of anything
here at Asensio's house" ut Is cold
before the dawn" Poor little
Rosa! He had always thought OF her
as so proud, so high-spirited, SO play
full, but another Rosa had written this
letter. Her appeal stirred every
chord Of tenderness, every impulse OF
chivalry in his impressionable Irish ma
ture. 20 Godl Come quickly, If you
love me-" He leaped to his feet; he
dashed the tears from his eyes.
Johnnie's preparations were con-
Quoted with vigor and prompitude
within two hours his belongings were
packed. He seized his hat and has
tened downtown to the Office Of the Gu
ban junta.
A businesslike young man inquired
his errand. Johnnie made known a
part of 1t, and then asked to see some
one in authority. In consequence, per-
haps, Of his Irish smile or Of that per-
suaslveness which he could render al
most irresistible when he willed, 1t was
not long before he gained admittance
to the presence of Mr.. Enriquez, a dis

age.

rhs MAN VINO Would Know LIfe.

The Man Who Would Know Life.
Later that day O'Rellly set out to
reconnoiter the city of Neuvitas. He
was followed, of course-he had ex-
pected as much, and the circumstances
amused rather than alarmed him. But
when he returned to his hotel and
found that his room had been visited
during his absence he felt q hint Of
uneaslness. Evidently, as Doctor Al
varado had forecast, the authorities
were interested In him; and he had
further evidence Of the fact when he
learned that the room next him was
occupied by the very man who had
shadowed him on the street. Inasmuch
as the intervening wall was no more
than a thin partition, through which
his very breathing could be heard,
while his every movement could doubt
less be spled upon, OReilly saw the
need Of caution.
During breakfast, and arterward
throughout an aimless morning stroll,
OReilly felt watchful eyes upon him.
When he returned to his hotel he
found Mr.. Carbajal in the cafe con-
cocting refrescos for some military off,
GERS, who scanned the American with
bold, hostile glances. O'Reilly COM
planned to the proprietor Of a tooth
ache. He declared that something had
to be done at once, and inquired the
name and address Of the best local
dentist.
Mr.. Carbajal named several, among
them DR.. Tomas Alvarado, whereupon
his guest hurried away, followed al

thought he must be dreaming. Could
1t be that he had misunderstood any
thing? He turned to the beginning and
attempted to read, but his hands shook
so that he was obliged to lay the letter
fat upon his desk.
