The ! crimp hit, aud hit hard; but ho was; putty In the bands of the big blond man. Mister Htevens nit nun once, a blow that would have floored him but lor the wall. The wall creaked under the Impact of bin body. Crafty in free-for-all fighting, the crimp re bounded from the wooden wall, launched himself forward in a crouch, mid gouged upward with bis extended thumbu for his foe's eyes. Mister Stevens was crafty, too. He jerked his head upwards, and snapped at the thumbs with his teeth. He caught one, and bit hard on It, while the crimp bellowed with pain. Then Stev ens let him go; and while the man stood on one leg, twisting round and round, wringing hiB half severed thumb, the .blond man stepped in, coldly, methodically, like a cooper walking around a cask, and punched with all his muscle and weight at the other's face and jaw. Six sickening punches landed be fore the crimp fell. Six cutting punches that sent the blood spattering over walls and ceiling. The last two landed upon an unconscious man; and when he pitched headlong across the couch where Drake lay, his head struck the iron with a crack. The fall knocked the wind out of Drake; but It also dissipated some of the mists that fogged his brain. He drag ged a leg aud arm free, and began to struggle up. He meant to have some thing to say to that big blond man. The landlord was heavy. The big blond man glanced contemptuously backwards as he quitted the room. "Send me a bloody dude for a sail- ' or, will you? A dude like that, too! If it was only a man " Mister Stevens passed from view, and Drake fought himself -to a sitting posture, his sluggish blood beginning to leap irith shame. "I'll show him!" he gritted, and made a bold stagger across the room. He was back in his shipboard youth . again. A fight was the nautral se quence to an insult like that Drake began to doubt that he was entirely awake. Horrid things, red splotched things whirled before his yes. He felt his wrist. His wrist watch was undoubtedly gone. Coins jingled in his trousers pockets. He drew" forth two copper pennies. His keys were gone. "This is too much of a good thing!" he muttered, and' marched through the door.

Men's voices could be heard, too; and among them the hateful voice of Mister Stev ens, the voice that had uttered that ' scorching remark. He wanted to in j terview Stevens.

"So it's ns well you were delayed over the men," a deep, puzzlingly un strange voice was saying. I shouldn't have brought Mary into a den liko this; but time is idiort, and you must sail today.1 'Oh, plea He don't worry about me," answered the girl's voice. "It's, fun. I wanted to see Oh, look!" the voice dropped to a stage whisper. "There's a man in there!" Drake groaned silently. He wanted to take a square look at the owner of that voice.- It was a rich, liquid, Jiappy voice. It sent a queer ripple aiong ins tnroat. nut no uarea not take his arms from his face. He knew, by the next voice, that they had passed on. "All the men are aboard but one, Captain Manning." This was R,tevens speaking. "I'll hare a man in half an hour. The crimp tried to send me a putty dude." The fellow laughed discordantly. Evidently playing to the girl, thought Drake. "If you saw It, Miss Mary, yon'd want it for a dol ly, but you'd have to wash it first." "Are you speaking about a man?" came the Birrs voice, cool and unnp preciative. Drnk'o never could decide, even years later, whether the girl meant that to be frosty, or was hav ing fun with Stevens too deep for his understanding. Now they were com ing past tho door again. "Tried to dump the dude onto me, sir. I hammered him well." irWho, the dude?" queried the girl, sharply. "Hush, child! Let Mister Stevens get through. Time's short," cut in Captain Manning.. "The crimp," said Stevens. "I would fell like a child beater if I hit that double left banded thing in silk striped pants that " "Yes, yes," said the captain im patiently. "Never mind the dude. You get your ship warped out of the pierhead whether you have a full com plement or not You'll lose the rest if you don't." The trio were right at the door. Drake simply had to peep. "I have done all that's needed in change of masters. You'll take the Orontes out to II a tn via. Take good care of Mary, and see her Bafcly to her brother's place. Ill got the business that's keeping mo ashore all settled by the time you get back.
