THEY sat on stools and with q whispered
word Of mingled excuse and injunction
she left him for few moments. The barman
leaned across the counter.
Monsieur knows the young lady well?" he
asked.
II never saw her before this evening""
Tresholm replied.
IF monsieur Is ignorant of certain things"
the man advised, "n he is concerned. he would
do well to be careful It u q night, this, when
disaster might come"
IT wish I knew what you are talking about"
Tresholm exclaimed.
The man leaned q little farther over the
counter He looked furtively to the right and
to the left. Then suddenly he stiHened
Mademoiselle stood once more by Tresholm's
side. She had washed the rouge from her
face and, although she was terribly pale, she
looked once more herself.
IT have engaged q salon prive," she whis-
pered. Monsieur will come. / have something
to say to him." He followed her down the
passage and the young barman looked after
them anxiously. With o little sigh the latter
drew his account block from his pocket scrib-
bled few lines upon one Of the pages torn
from 1t and handed 1t to q gray-haired maitre

The man nodded and made his way Nd the
crowded room to where Tresholms neighbo-
was still seated He handed the note TO him
without word and slipped away. Vigaud ad-
justed his eyeglaSs and read the few lines care
fully. Then he glanced across at the empty
place opposite and shrugged. His bill was al
ready paid, as though In expectation OF some
such emergency. He made his way through the
throDg and strolled cat into the night.

1T was gay night at Maxim's Nice's most
- fashionable Bohemian restaurant The ex-
hibition dancers never had been received with
more favor. Tresholm. inclined to wonder why
he had fingered on after a late dinner to the
small hours Of the morning, still felt no i'm
pulse to depart. There were two people and
one circumstance in the room which inter-
eSted him-the girl with the misty eyes at the
table opposite and the small man who was his
left-hand neighbor, a man with rather high
color, a wizened face, hair as Stifhy upright
porcupine quilts. He correctly dressed for
the evening and he ate his supper with an
Eclaireur du Soir propped up in front of him.
These were the two people whom Tresholm
always obServant Of the world around him, had
singled out as being of interest
The circumstance was another matter-a
long table laid for IA. at the end Of the room,
which had been unoccupied all the evening and
which was now being slowly and unwillingly
dismantled. Tresholm leaned forward as the
maitre d'hotel passed.
You are disappointed Of some guests to-
night, LOUISE" he remarked.
"a party Of officers from the battleship in
VNlefranche Harbor. sir" the man confided.
Some Of them visit here most nights but
this was to be q very special affair The wine
and the supper were ordered q week ago 1t
was the fete-day of the one who has been our
best patron here"
''The celebration has been postponed, then?"
TTesholm asked.
The maitre d'hotel approached q step nearer.
Monsieur has not heard, then, Of what has
arrived"
ct have heard nothing at ALL" Tresholm
replied.
The man leaned forward. Zone knows moth
Ing though he hears sometimes wild Stories"
he said Leave from the battleship has been
stopped. 1t Is pity. for the supper has been
cooked. They will come another day."
The man bowed himself away. and Tresholm
aware Of the cause Of his sudden reticence, con-
tinued his meal without remark. Presently he
looked across at the opposite table The girl
with the misty eyes smiled at him slightly
With nothing in mind save the qualification
Of his almost impersonal interest he rose to
his feet and crossed the floor.
"Mademoiselle will dance?" he invited.
Mademoisele hesitated, and 1t seemed TO
Treshom, looked at his neighbor. Then she
rose slowly.
If monsieur wishes" she assented.
The dance was o success, and as Tresholm
led her back to her seat he somewhat
confident that his curiosity concerning her was
justified.
'Mademoiselle would care to share my table
for o timer" he suggested. I'VE both seem to
be alone"
She demurred. "Sit with me for q few
minutes" she begged. II like this side Of the
room better"
why do you prefer your table to mine2~ he
asked.
1T is your neghbor" she confided. II do
not like him. He looks at me all the time.
I know very well that II we talked together
me would hsten"

ARLIER in the day Tresholm had
brought his car to a standstin and
~ had joined a crowd of people gaz-
~ ing down into the harbor of Vile
IL franche where a battleship lay
anchored. The reason for their mild excite
ulent was easily apparent. Instead of being
surrounded by the usual stream of boats COM
ing and going, the sea around the ship was
deserted, the gangway was drawn up, and q
flag was flying, which perhaps Tresholm alone
among that little company rightly understood
the navy nag warning of all visitors or trades
people of any description. The only craft
visible was the battleships own pnnace. which
had just left the landing stage.
Tresholm adjusted his field-glasses and
studied the scene below. The two passengers
who were being escorted on board were NJ.
Desrolles the chief de surete ut Monaco, and
q companion whom Treshom CHANGED to
recognized as the chief de surete at Nice.
Something had happened to disturb the
serenity Of life upon the battleship. His I'M
derstanding Of the flags q dnhis recognition Of
the two men in the pinnace helped him TO
realize the probable nature Of the event. He
watched the pinnace cutting through the water,
leaving behind its trail Of foam, watched the
gangway let grudgingly down and the two Wis
itors received on board, watched afterward the
immediate drawing up of the gangway and the
sheering OF Of the pinnace. Then he drove on
to Nice.

never once
as the long file trooped past her.
TreshOlm, happening by chance to notice the
fact, watched the young men curiOusly. The
first half dozen. either by design or accident,
ignored her completely Toward the end of the
procession, however one of the youngest look
ing Of the officers glanced anxiously across at
her table.
Tresholm's gaze followed the lad euriously
He fancied there was q certain tenseness in
his expression, shared by none Of his COM
panions. They took their places noisily. Wig
aud chuckled.
AN idea," he commented-"without q doubt
an idear'
whats it all about?" Tresholm inquired
good naturally.
His companion appeared to have become less
communicative.
"One asks oneself" he murmured.
The young men from the battleship settled
down to enjoy themselves, and one was
more swiftly uproarious than the youth whose
entrance had attracted Tresholm's attention.
Ladies with inclinations toward dancing seemed
to arrive as though by magic from all direc-
tions Every one of the party danced, includ-
ing the boy. His partner however, was little,
fair haired Frenchwoman, from whose eyes he
scarcely once looked away. Tresholm. who was
beginning to be intrigued by q situation which
he utterly failed to understand, ordered an
other bottle Of wine and postponed his inten-
ton Of leaving. The girl with the misty eyes
suddenly smiled across at him, with little
gesture of invitation. Tresholm hastened to
her side. and she slipped eagerly into his arms.
But your hands coldl" he exclaimed, as
they swung down the room.

He looked at her. puzzled. There was little

This change of plan was nec- eSsary on account of the limited time left for the party in Seward, the train being 30 minutes late, having been held over for the party at Anchorage and the necessity of the Aleutian leaving promptly at g D. m. for Seattle.
 The tour, known as a Business and Friendship Tour, was under the direction of MT. Nathan Eek stein, one If Seattle's foremost cit izenS.
 The Seattle visitors were greatly impressed with their trip and promised that on future trips the schedule would be arranged so as to give them more time in the diff ferent towns along their route. They were loud in their praise of the wonderful treatment extended to them by the Alaska Steamship Co.,, and one and all were sold" on the par excellence of the steamer Aleutian.
