LUCY CARTERET ADMITS THAT SHE IS LYDIA CRAVENS AND THAT HER FATHER DOESN'T KNOW SHE IS GO ING TO AMERICA TO LIVE WITH HIM A well-bred young Englishwoman, nervous and suspicious, finds when she boards the steamer Alsutla, bound from Liverpool to Now York, that her stateroom mate Is Mrs. Amelia Iteggtirstnff. a fascinat ing, wealthy American widow of sixty years. The girl Introduces her self as Lucy Carteret and explains that she Is going to make her homo with her father In America. Something about the girl's behavior puz zles the widow, and she Is much surprised to And that Lucy owns a magnificent necklace which had been stolen from n museum collection some time previously, and informs her friend, Mr. Quoin, a private detective. Lucy, dressing In the dark in her stateroom, hears a mys terious conversation between men Just outside her window and recog nizes one of them.

Two minutes inter the stewardess, hastening to answer a series of impa tient rings from B75, found that state room bright with light and tenanted 3y a pale but animated young woman frantically struggling into a haphazard selection of garments, with the evl dent intention of making immediate ippearance in public. "Wiuant, do you think you could Ind me a passenger list?" "Oh, surely, miss." "I want very much to. see one, Please fetch it at once." Gravely Winant shrugged and went her way, shrewdly guessing close to the cause of the passenger's excite ment "Some sweet'art, likely," she reflected with the Indulgent pity of a self-suDDortlng married woman not obliged to live continuously with her husband. "Found out some'ow 'e's on board, w'lch she wasn't expectln'." So instead of summoning the ship's doctor to pass upon the advisability of allowing the convalescent to go on deck, Winant serenely carried out her instructions, returning to find Miss Carteret all dressed save for hooks and shoebuttons. "You've been in since I went to sleep this afternoon, Winant?" the girl de manded as Winant entered. "Yes, miss, tldyin' up a bit." "Xou dldn t notice a brooch any where on top this chest of drawers?' "A cameo brooch? Yes, miss, I did, and left It w'ere I saw It" "Eeally? But It's not there now, What can have become of it? Oh, is that the passenger list?" In her excitement almost snatching from Winant's grasp the printed list of first-cabin passengers, the girl promptly forgot the missing brooch. You're sure, miss," the stewardess pursued, first examining the chest and then kneeling to paw the carpet be neath it "you're sure you didn't by any chawnse knock it off while dress- in'?" "What?" the girl murmured abstract edly, her gaze racing down the dense columns of small type. "The brooch, miss " "Oh, bother that ! It's surely some where about. I'll find it later. Oh, Winant I" she broke ,off with a cry of delight "It Is true ! I knew I couldn't be mistaken I He is on the ship !" Her trembling forefinger indicated midway down the column headed "C" the entry, "Craven, Thaddeus New York." "The gentleman as you're engyged to, miss?" Winant hazarded lmperson any; anu Having noted the name stepped behind the girl to hook up her frock. "Engaged to? Oh, no, Winant I" The girl laughed. "How absurd 1 Why, he's my father !" "Mr. Craven, miss? But I thought as 'ow your nlme was Carteret, miss; "Oh!" the girl gasped In transient dismay. Then she laughed. "To be sure, that is the name I sailed under. But my real name's Lydla Craven not Lucy Carteret at all. You see, I didn't want well somebody in England to know I was sailing." "Your father, miss?" Winant hazard ed dispassionately, kneeling again to attend to the girl's shoes. "No; someone else. I I didn't know my father was in England, you see," Craven's daughter faltered in a first faint chill of doubt. "He he must have made a hurried trip on busi ness he's a very busy man and didn't aave time to notify me. But that," her spirits dictated on the rebound, "only nakep it more strange and wonder fulthat we should meet this way tie will be surprised." "1 warrant I" Wlnnnt commented ivith an ambiguity lost upon Lydla, who accepted the response as one of simple concurrence, whereas the wom an at her feet was hiding an ironic smile. In point of fact, this Tad Craven of Mrs. Beggarstaff's acquaintance was a conspicuous figure among transatlan tic travelers, one who crossed fre luently, and, lacking any other title to lotorlety, would have made himself remembered by his lavish tips. More )rer, Winant read American as well as English newspapers, and knew a vast deal more about Craven than that man would have cared to credit who, when all's said, wasn't lightly to be termed a man of retiring disposition. Thus the discovery that he had a daughter (and why not a wife living, as well?) was one tremendously titil lating; for trade in gossip about nota bilities goes on as briskly between decks on fashionable Atlantic steam ships as below stairs in fashionable homes on either side of the water. But Craven's daughter, forgetful of the serving woman, sat with eyes se rene in a face radiant with the glow of happiness in her heart Never n doubt troubled her ardent anticipa tions. That ominous note which had been sounded in the brief conversation outside her window was now forgot ten at worst could not have shaken her faith in his loving kindness. That was something always to be counted upon, something that had never failed her. And if his attitude of late might have seemed Inconsistent with truly sympathetic affection, Lydla knew better: her father had not so much opposed her wishes as he had underestimated the sincerity of her mutiny against the rule of Agnes Uicks- Lorrlmer. How could it be otherwise, with a gap of five long years In their associa tion, five years of separation, change and growth? His thought aroused appreciation of the great changes time had wrought: so great that it wasn't difficult to fancy Craven falling to recognize his daugh ter, whose memory with him must be that of a hobbledehoy of fifteen, long- legged and awkward, with perpetually freckled snub nose, mouth too wide, and eyes oo large for her thin face, and her hair in plaits two wrist-thick cables of it falling below her waist, carroty red, and bound with broad but terfly bows of stiff blue ribbon. Mrs. Ilicks-Lorrlmer'8 idea, that of the butterfly bows the final touch of ignominy 1 Lydla dated her hatred of the woman from the hour when she had been compelled to submit to those unspeakable decorations. But today Lydla smiled tenderly. No; Craven wouldn't know his girl not until she told him unless, to be sure, she had grown somewhat to re semble her mother, who had been a fa mous beauty or so Mrs. Grummle of the Bloomsbury lodgings had asser vated and so Craven himself, under pressure of persistent questioning, had once admitted. Winant, rising from her knees, dis pelled reverie. "Is that all, Miss Cra ven?" Lydla smiled brilliantly. "That's right," she affirmed with decision. "Let me be Miss Craven from now on. Do you think you could find my father fr me, Winant?" "Oh, surely, miss." Winant preserved a straight face. "Would you wish me to send 'lm to you 'ere?" 'Oh, no. I merely want to know where to look for him. But to send him here to find me why don't you seev that would spoil it all !" "Quite so, miss. I won't be a min ute." To Lydla, waiting with eyes shin' ing and lips tremulous with anticipa tion, entered unexpectedly her Downeer Dragon; and entering, for the first and only time in their association betrayed no signs of some slight embarrassment and bewilderment. "Heaven help our home !" Mrs. Beg- arstafT cried, thunderstruck. "Where are you going, child?" "On deck, probably," Lydla Informed her with a twinkle of mischief. "But my blessed income" "Dear Mrs. Beggarstaff," Lydla in terposed impulsively, "I must tell vou. something has happened something so wonderful and delightful that I verllv believe it would have got mo out of bed ad I been nt the point of denth !" , Poh!" exclaimed the Downirer Dragon Impatiently. Surprise fiuld in her eyes, and was replaced by some thing strangely like disappointment. With a quick movement she closed the door and sat down on her bed. "Non sense 1" she added with unaccountable Irritation, looking the excited young woman up and down. "My dear, you're th.it next time you try ..... ....,.. in flu. .lark.

"Ilut-I don't care!" I.ydlu retorted with gay detlanco. "You know my fa ther, and I've ti perfect right to kiss you for that. If I want to. Tell me how long you have known him. and how long you've known I was his daughter, und what made .vou begin to tutspi-ct. and" "In pity's name!" the Dowager Dra gon Interrupted, covering her ears. "One question ut a time, lie still, und I'll tell you." But here, to her open relief, the stewardess knocked nnd entered, with the effect of rendering Lydla obllvlou to all else. "Yes, Wlnnnt? You've found him? Where?" "One of the stewards tells me, miss, 'e's Just seen Mr. Craven abaft the deck'ouse on the main deck, ustern." "Thank you so much, Wlnnnt. Good by, Mrs. Bcgj-arstufT!" Snatching up wrap nnd soirf, I.yiiin was off In a breath. Those she left behind eyed one nn other oddly the Dowager Dragon with n twinkling look of Inquiry : the stew ardess with discreetly tightened lips and half-lowered lids that, hinting nt mysteries uuutterable, were a plnln provocation to any competent cate- chlst And the face of Mrs. Beggarstaff grew bright with the light of buttle.

Lydla stepped over the high sill of a doorway to open air upon the main deck nbaft the superstructure and gained the shadow of the deckhouse wherein the rudder engine clanked and groaned. When he came to the open space between the deckhouse and the taffrall the moon slipped from behind a cloud, drenching the ship with ghost i n 7 Ml1 7 TV ACT Lydia Stood Rooted in Incredulous Em-barrassmcnt ly radiance, and she stopped short.
