pretty rough with you, but your man

You've got to acknowledge that he's an
artist. Let's get out of this. What do
you plan to do?"
"Go out and get Stembrldge, and settle
with you."
"Tho word 'settle' usually refers to
dollars up in the States," Constable said
delicately.
"It doesn't pay to buck the detective
bureau, Constable, and I'm authorited
o take cash for your part this time."
"How much?"
"Five thousand dollars and expenses."
It costs money to keep you off ones
ship."
"I'm Crusoe of the detective bureau,
and I usually go where I please," was
tiie dulcet answer.
"I'll have to go out to tho ship to get
so much money," Constablo declared re
signedly.
"I'll have to go out to the ship to get
btembridge," said Crusoe. "We'll go to
gether."
"Where are your men?"
"I'm working alone this trip."
"You can pick up a couple of ccn
darmes to help you, if you think you'll
need help," Constable suggested. This
was the galvanic instant.
Crusoe glanced at him keenly. He had
been able to pick no flaw in the moment's
talk. He was a shrewd man In his line
and schooled, but Constable had run
true. There is no inclination on the
part of the public at large to concede
brilliance of acumen to the heirs of mill
ions, unless the sparkling quality has been
exposed in a strong light. The suggestion
concerning the gendarmes, and a last
glance into the face of the young man.
vanquished Crusoe s final doubt.
"I can handle Stembrldge very tidily.
having your moral support," he declared.
He s too old a bird to resist arrest when
he's once cornered."
"Just as you say," Constable said
swiftly. "Turn your rig about and fol
low on. . My launch is ahead, at the
Sugar Landing."
It was not until the other was behind,
and the back of his own carriage shut
ting off the view, that Constable realized
be had lost his headache, and was drench
ed with perspiration. It was now eight.
The ladies had agreed to be ready at nine.
In case Uncle Joey had returned with
the mail by that time. His several er
rands must wait. The present matter
would take the entire time, and must be
done decently and in prder. The driver
was commanded to make good speed to
the launch, which was in readiness. Cru
soe dismissed his. rig; Constable bade his
driver wait, and the two men boarded.
"Make her buzz, Ernst," the owner said
to the sailor in charge. "I'm expiring
for a drink and a moutbfu) of clean air."
Crusoe was deeply interested In the
present manifestation of Martinique's cli
mate, and was not readily diverted to the
subject which challenged his companion.
Once launched, however, upon the deal
ings of Nicholas Stembridge, alias Hay
den - Breen, he became fluent, and Con
stable learned, that his guest was "the
Rajah's Diamond" among the swindlers
f civilization.
Stembridge, according to Crusoe, had
started a Central American revolution in
order to seize a range of rich silver hills ;
had made good, worked the mines, and
sold them, a year later, "salted to a
brine," to a syndicate of New York capi
talists. He had engineered the Yarmouth-Learns
oil syndicate which disor
dered London financiers for a day. Of
these and other Interesting engagements
Constable learned as the launch sped
across the fouled harbor.
"What does this prince of manipula
tors do with all his money?" he asked
finally.
"Well, you see," Crusoe replied, "he
has his army to pay, and he must pay
the men pretty well, for the rumor is.
abroad that tbey would go on the cross
for him. And then be Is a golden glory
of a spendthrift. I've heard that Paris

Here we are. Perhaps you don't think I
was pleased to see your craft lying here
this morning when I came in on the Pan
ther?" "I presume you were," Constable re
plied idly.
They were on the ship's ladder, Crusoe
walking ahead. The sailor above, on the
main deck of the Madame, caught a
strange gesture from Constable's hand,
and a stranger expression from the eye
of his owner. The sailor did not under
stand exactly, but he stood ready for
anything that might occur, and accord
ingly made haste to assist when Consta
ble sprang forward and pinioned the
nevc6mer about the waist. Crusoe ac
cepted bis defeat nervlly, but when his
gun was removed and his wrists enclosed
for the time being In bis own manacles
he regarded bis captor with eyes of hate,
Jn which a little reproach was mingled.
"What's your lay, Constable?" he In
quired almost steadily. "You're smarter
than I thought, and a deal more crooked."
"Listen," the other said hurriedly. "I
didn't like to do this, but there wasn't
any way out of It I'vo got a lot on my
mind this morning, and you complicated
matters. It may be that I'm saving your

and I couldn't be interrupted until I got

Constable hurried down the ladder, and

which was aimed at the low-hanging pall,
back of which lay tho tortured city. It
was now twenty-five minutes to nine. Ho
could make the plantation houso slightly
aiier inc nour.
It was but a moment from the pier to
the carriage, and then the half-strangled
ponies struggled gallantly through Rue
icior xiugo and up the morne toward
the plantation house. Uncle Joey's rig
was at the gate, good evidence that tho
mails had been brought.
Constable entered the house hastily at
ten minutes past nine. There was a
word of cheer upon his Hps. No one was
in the library or the music room; no one
but a maid servant was on the lower
floor. She was gathering up tho litter of
uroKen envelopes and newspaper wran
pings upon the library table. Constable
imagined that the . maid servant regarded
him strangely. He ran to the stairway
and called:
"Are you almost ready, ladies?"
He heard, footsteps above and low
Voices: then a door onened and Mr
Stansbury crossed the upper hall and
appeared at the head of the stairway. Al
ready he was filled with a confusion of
alarms.
'Pardon me for calling you. but every
thing is ready as soon as you can come."
We are not going on your yacht. Mr,
Constable," the elder woman said coldly.
He sprang up the stairs and faced her
in the dim light Two or three times in
his life he had become cold like this.
some trait of his breed equipping him
with an outward calm, when the issue of
the moment was won or lost, buf lifted
from his hands.
What is the latest difficulty, please?"
I would rather not discuss the mat
ter, Mr. Constable."
"May I speak with Miss Stansbury?"
It was not given to the mother to ac
cede or refuse, for the door behind her
was opened and the girl stood in the aper
ture, her anguished eyes intent upon him.
I returned to announce that every
thing Is ready," he said quietly, "and your
mother tells me that you are not going."
No, we are not going, she repeated
In a lifeless voice. .
"Is it too much for me to ask why?"
She did not answer at once, but seemed
trying to penetrate his brain with her
eyes. XTien, you have not seen the Isew
York papers?" she sald. "You may have
this. The others are below."
She banded him the front page of a
dally journal, dated three weeks before.
His own name was there, and not in
honor. When he looked up from the pa
per the door was shut. Constable went
below.
Where Is Mr. Wall?" he dully Inquir
ed of the maid servant
"He went out to the plantation, sir,
immediately upon bringing in the mails."
"Where is Mr. Breen?"
"He went down to the city, sir."
Constable left the house and walked
rapidly out the driveway, turning toward
Saint Pierre. Here the man's pride in
tervened. He had committed a folly,
perhaps, but no broad evil. The state
ments of the press were farcical. Lara
Stansbury should not have allowed her
mother and the New York reporters to
shake her trust. With reaction piling
upon him its most bitter and tragic
phases, Peter Constable cohceded bis fail
ure as a lover, and turned to ms second
ary passion Pelee.
CHAPTER VIII.
Ttrppn was not wholly unconscious of
danger when the large bundle of New
York papers was brought with the mails
intn tha Iibrarv. The ladles had busied
themselves over a Joint epistle" from Mr.
Stansbury, and were scanning the front
pages of the journals, when a sudden
exclamation from Mrs. Stansbury inti
mated the ugly truth. Breen was chang
ed from guest to outlaw. MIbs Stansbury
followed her mother upstairs, the former
honrlnir the Tinner with her. A second
account of the demoralizing incident was.
not difficult to find. Breen read the fol
lowing hastily:
'Th Madame de Stael. Mr. Peter Con
stable's. splendid private yacht, cleared for
West Indian ports this morning, having
on board the young millionaire-owner
nnri If In alleged. Nicholas Stembridee.
the notorious revolutionist, adventurer,
and swindling promoter.
'The nurnose In common of the capi
talist and fortune hunter cannot be told.
Mr. Constable has figured in the public
, i
prints on several occasions, uui cmeuy
fhrnnph his eccentric ideas of practical
nhllanthronv. So far as is known, he has
never before allowed himself to be sub
jected to the attention of the police. It
is feared that ho will lose at notn enus
as a result of bis present atuiiations,
'Mr. Constable's friends aver that the
young millionaire could not have under
stood the character or nis companion lor
the vnvace. and noint out that Nicholas
Htmhrlri?e. at his best. Is a man of fasci
nating manners and rre personal accom

Mr. Constable Is of a most impulsive tem

A spirited description or tM pnoo on j
the Brooklyn pier followed! also a nnr.
tlon of Nicholas Stembridge'a police rec
ord. Tho coiiBorvativo character of the
paper in which tho forecolnc anneared
led Urccn to bellovo that tho account
which had fallen Into Mrs.' Stansbury's
hand might bo considerably more emblaz
oned and embellished. Ills first thought
was that ho had becomo a source of hor
ror to the women, and that he must put
himself out of their sight.
Breen was not a conscienceless man. A
fatalist, a spendthrift, a power that prey
ed upon tho powers that prey, a polished
reveller nil these ho might be, but his
blood was clean from the taint of person
al treachery. He had come to llko Con
stable. The friendship was guileless. Ho
had even thought, with a traco of humor
In certain momenta, that It was worth
belnr called back from the Brooklyn pier
for such n large and clear emotion. It
is possible that he had never In his, llfo
been troubled as now, having brought a
vital hurt to the man he wished only to
serve. Ills face showed nothing, not even
the heat of the day, as he left tho house.
Ills own body had felt all, oven the
moral dissolution which crawls into the
brain to prepare a place for the sinister
guest, suicide. The law of cause and ef
fect, unable to find any hold upon him
self nor Inspire any fear this side of
death, had linked him with another, and
made that other suffer through him.
Breen was smitten with the ugliest pun
ishment thnt clean fiber is given to wrltho
beneath that of seeing a friend beaten
to the ground by the rebounding volley
of one's own sins.
Half way down the Morne d'Orange,
he saw Constable's launch turn shoreward
from the ship. Constable was probably
aboard. Breen wasn't ready yet to meet
tho man ho had hurt. He must think.
Moreover, by no means did he Ignore the
possibility of tho Panther bringing one
of his logical enemies, nor was he ready
to face an accumulation of consequences
in the shape of a man hunter. Ho turn
ed to the right at tho bnse of the morne,
and made his way up one of the winding
paths to the terraced streets. That his
steps led him to the fruit shop, where he
had planned not to go again, seemed now
but a paltry addition to the incubus
which had so suddenly possessed him.
At the first terrace he turned and star
ed back through the smoke. The launch
had just touched the pier at the Sugar
Landing. The tall figure of Constable
uteppcd forth and hastened to the car
riage, which was driven rapidly toward
the morne. Breen smiled, because It was
easier for him to smile than to cry for
mercy. Constable was being driven swift
ly to the plantation house, where he
would find the ugly work that had been
done there. Mrs. Stansbury would not
board a ship that had been a thief's
refuge.
Rue de Rivoll was white and empty,
The door of the shop was shut but not
locked, and the little round window dark
ened with a cloth. Breen entered, slam
ming the door quickly, to keep out tho
hot, poisoned air of the street The dark
shop was as empty of humans as the
thoroughfare, but a quick step sounded in
the rear. Pere Rabeaut entered from the
ash-quilted court
"What a day, M. Breen I The birds
are dead and dying. Soronia Is ill unto
death "
"Soronia ill!" Breen said under his
breath.
The old man hastened away. At the
rear doorway, Soronia pushed by him.
Her hair was unfastened, and the loose'
white garment that she wore was open at
the throat. The father stared as if she
were a specter. His lips moved, and he
turned suddenly to the man standing In
front of the shop. She moved toward
the American.
Her eyes aroused him. The darkness
bad no power to divest them of expres
sion, for the passions were burning there
fear lest this was not flesh which filled
her gaze; ecstasy in that he was there at
all, in life or death or dream. Ilia act of
yesterday had wrought the ghastly pallor ;
the deathly illness was heart-starvation.
She touched bis shoulder and bis cheek
wj& chilling bands; there fell from her
lips strange, low words of no language
that he knew. Suddenly she caught bis
hand to her breast, whispering that she
had feared she was dreaming.
"What were you dreaming, little one?"
he questioned.
"I thought I was dying when I heard
your voice. You said you said you
would come no more."
"But did I not come, little fairy? Who
could remain nway from you?"
She seized his face in her cold hands,
whispering, "Do you mean that you will
stay?"
