steamer early the following morning,
and at noon he entered q taxi with his
hand baggage and was driven to the
levee where La Estrellita lay tugging
gently at her moOfing lines. Owing to
the congestion oe freight and traffic the
chauffeur stopped his cab little dis
tance from the gangplank. where
Webster discharged him with liberal
tip.
The latter. however, swung his
passengers bag and suitcase to the
ground, picked them up and started
for the gangplank.

Webster answered, smiling. The man
took the tip eagerly and hurried to-
ward the gangplank; the quartermas-
ter on duty shouldered a way for him
and he darted aboard.
Webster followed leisurely. At the
gangplank the purser's clerk halted
him. examined his tickets and punched
them.
"Where is the other mani" he asked.
"You have two tickets here"

Webster answered. and glanced around

He was looking straight into the

was standing just behind the clerk at

He started to pass the tickets back
to Webster, but detalning hand rest

tickets. Pucker-eye was examining
