THE LEAGUE AND THE TREATY

1t has been the opinion of all
right-thinking people all along that
the League of Nations and the rati-
fication of the treaty of Versailles
should never be allowed to become
an issue of partisan politics. There
is a society OF people numbering
among its members so many Of the
distinguished men of this country
as to demand respectful attention
of the world. For years it has been
laboring for universal peace through
the instrumentality of a League to
enforce peace and disarmament. 1t
has as its president former Presi-
dent William H. Taft, than whom
there is not a truer Republican nor
a more noble gentleman. Others Of
its members are men who have for
years been identified as leaders OF
both political parties. They are dis
tinguished men and apostles of real
Americanism. The League to En-
force Peace has adopted a resolu-
ton in the name of thousan Is of
Americans who have died to bring
peace and end war, and of millions
of Americans who have sacrificed
to that end,' Mr.. Taft and his League
to Enforce Peace call upon the Sen
ate to forget partisanship and pre-
ujdice and agree upon a resolution
of ratification.
These men are big enough to rise

began again, ana 1t was astonishing with what rapidity the thick-coming pictures began to crowd upon that in- ner vision with which the Lord had en- dowed hts faithful follower!
 Of course was inclined now to take the whole thing as an amusing impos- ture; but presently, watching his face and the curious "seeing" expression of his eyes, and noting the exactitude of one or two pictures, I began to feel that however much he might be in- venting or elaborating, there was some substratum of truth in what he was telling me.
 The first pictures that came to him were merely pictures, though astonish- ingly clear ones, of Webster's boat, the Flamingo, of Webster himself, and of the men and the old dog Sailor; but in all this he might have been visualizing from actual knowledge. Yet the de- tails were curiously exact. Presently his gaze becoming more fixed:
 q see you anchored under a little settlement. You are rowing ashore. Dere are little pathways running up among de coral rock, and few white houses. Seems to be a forest big trees-not like Nassau trees-and thick brush everywhere; all choked up so thick and dark, can't see nut'n. Wait minute, dough. Dere seems to be old houses all sunk in and los, like old ruins. Can't see dem for de brush. And wait-Lord love you, sar. but rse afraid-I seem to see a big light com ing up trough de brush from far under de ground-just like you see old rot ten wood shining in de dark-deep, deep down. Didn't tell you de Lord gave me eyes to see into de bowels of de earth fits de bowels of de earth for sure-all lit up and shining Praise de Lord--it am de gold, for certain, all hidden away and shining dere un- der de ground"
 Cant you see it closer. c'earer" I exclaimed involuntarily; "get some idea of the place it's in?"
 Tine cid man gazed with a renewed intensity.
 ''No," he said presently, and his dis appointed tone seemed to me the best evidence yet of his truth, 1T only see a little golden mist deep, deep down un- der de ground; now it is fading away. It's gone; can only see de woods and de ruins again"
 This brought his visions to an end. The spirits obstinately refused to make any more pictures. though the old man continued to gaze on in the decanter stopper for fully five min utes.

CHAPTER III.
In Which We Take Ship Once More.

In Which We Take Ship Once More.
 The discovery which-through my friend the dealer in marine curiosi- ties"-I had made, or believed myself to have made, of the situation of Henry P. Tobias second pod" of treasure, fitted exactly with Charlie Webster's wishes for our trip small stock as he affected to take in it at the moment.
 "Short Shrift island" lay few miles to the northwest of Andros island. Now Andros is great haunt of wild duck, not to speak of that more august bird, the flamingo. Attraction number one for the good Charlie. Then, though it is some hundred and fifty miles long and some fifty miles broad at it's broadest, it has never yet. it is said, been entirely explored.
 Its center is still mystery. The natives declare it is haunted, or at all events inhabited by some strange peo- pie no one has yet approached close enough to see. You can see their houses, they say, from a distance, but as you approach them, they disappear. Here, therefore, seemed an excellent place for Tobias to take cover in. Charities duck-shooting preserves, end less marl lakes islanded with man. grove eopses lay on the fringe of this mysterious region. So Andros was plainly marked out for our destina- tion.
 Sailor had watched his master get ting his guns ready for some days, and, doubtless, memories stirred in him of Scotch moors they had shot over together. He raised his head to the night wind and snlffed impatiently, as though he already scented the wild duck on Andros island. He was im- patient, like the rest of us, because, though it was an hour past sailing time. we had still to collect two of the crew. The two loiterers turned up at last and, all preliminaries being at length disposed of, we threw off the mooring ropes and presently there was heard that most exhilarating of sounds to anyone who loves seafaring, the rip bling of the ropes through the blocks as our mainsail began to rise up high against the moon which was beginning to look out over the huge block of the Colonial hotel the sea wall of which ran along as far as our mooring. A few lights in it's windows here and there broke the blank darkness of it's facade, glimmering through the ave- nues of royal palms. I am thus ex- plicit because of something that pres ently happened and which stayed the mainsail .n it's ripping ascent.
 4 tall figure was running along the sea wall from the direction of the ho- tel, calling out, little breathlessly, in rich young voice as it ran:
 "Wait a minute there, you fellows Wait minute!'
 We were already moving, parallel with the wall. and at least twelve feet away from it, by the time the figure l that of a tall boy, cowboy-hatted and l picturesquely outlined in the half l light-stopped just ahead of US. He raised something tiat looked like a bag in his right hond, calling out Catch" as he did SO; and, moment after, before a word could be spoken, he took q flying leap and landed l amongst us, plump in the cockpit and was clutching first cue of us and then the other, to keep his balance.
 Did it, by -Jover he exclaimed in beautiful English accent, and then
