Tho ui(! which took him to a on leaviiiR school hns never left h.m. One nlKht. Hllpping away to bailnrtowti, Drake meets up with liu.e JOIJ DUN'tiNC, a Bailor. They drink each other off their loot In a barroom, and Drake Is car ij d upstairs. Awaking next mor iiniti. Drake hears himself de nounced by CAPTAIN STEVKNS of tho Or ouinH, kb being a "dude" not uvea fit for Hhangliailng. Drake sneaks aboard the ship as one of the crew. On the Orontes Is MARRY MANNING, daughter; of the owner. Hiding in a narrow Bteel shell in the forecaHtlo, Drako hears the voices of Miss Manning and Captain Stevens. Inopportune ly Drake sneezos. wet hawsers, roiling them to dry on the fore hatch. And Captain Stevens, proud as a peacock In his now command, paced his poop deck and secretly watched the blue eyes without a aucplclon of tho cxiiitoiice of the black. A fresh easterly blew the Nore waters Into yellow yeast. A fair wind. Splendid portent. The skies were blue as Mary Manning's oyes. "Let-fall yer lower-tops'ls! Sheet home:" roared tho mate. A still "YUIIAT the hell!" exclaimed Stevens, as Drake's strang led sneeze lot go. In a moment Captain Stevens was on his knees, reaching with a long, steel-muscled arm that seemed to grow fathoms long to Drake. Tho hook-llko fing ers fastened upon his dungareed leg. Ho tried to fight; another . sneeze robbed him of strength; he Mas hauled out, Btlll sneezing, to stnnd humiliated bofore those blue eyes that held the ocean deeps In them, Stevens swore fervidly: "Why, It's youl Damn my eyes! Walt till I" "Who la It?" cried Mary, getting over her startloment and regard ' Jng Drake with big wide oyes. "Who Is It! Hall I It's til' putty dude that crimp tried " The skipper went to the fore castle door, shouting for tho mate. "I beg your " stammered Drake, eyes streaming. Another paroxysm, shook him speechloss. In came the mate, bubbling over with the enthusiasms o( a recent pro ' motion. . "Mister Twining," growled tho sklppor savagely, "bike this out and run It ashore."- "Gangway's In, sir," grinned Mister Twining. "Then dump It over tho sldo! Get It out o' the ship!" Sheer humiliation forced Drake to fight, although he could not see, could scarcely hold up his head, which Btlll ached. IIo clenched bin fists and fought blindly. "Oh, you don't mean to throw . him Into tho water?" cried Mary. "They can't! The pair of them can't!" panted Drake; and Mister Twining, fresh, Btrong, full of pep, found that he could not, alone. "What call themselves men, now adays!" growled Stevens, enig matically, and put his two power f U hands to the task. A fit of sneezing overcame Drake at that Immportuno moment; ho waB put ty in truth then; he wns rushed o itiiUlo, Ills knoes were peeled c inlly on the coaming of tho d.ior; they picked him up clear of the dock. "We're a man short, Blr," men tioned tho mate as they swung him. "We'll got a man!" retorted Ste vens. "Ono! Two!" Alden Drako heat his way half drowned to the boat steps beside the lock gates. In the corner of the Docks ho Bneezed his head clear of dust, nnd tried to plan his next move. Ho had got aboard too enslly that laBt time. It wasn't logical to export such simplicity. Hut ho bnd paid i well In tho end. So, well, that bin ' fll5lltlnflr hlnnri wna tlinrniivlilv I heated now; ho would Bhow that blue eyed girl that he wns a man, and prove It upon tho tooth of 1 Captain Stevens. Hut first he had to stow him self away beyond fear of discovery And ho had little time. Once the tug ranged alongside tho tall alio jior, he would almost suroly havo lost. And there was a grlnvnuB amount of activity about tho Or ontes. Ho watched tho mnto come ashore. ' "looking for a man!" Drake mattered sarcastically. "I don't look llko a man to Captain Kto vensl And 1 hnd my master's ticket when ho" Ho halted that train of thought. It led to no where. "He's right!" ho decided. A man' only ti.n man he :j, not what ho was. I'll auk him what I am; but ho no putty dudo when I auk him, by Caesar! And I want to see no pity In that girl's big eves when be answers mo, either." Ho shivered in hla wet dungar ees, lhit his pycB never left the glosity painted nlilo of tho Orontes. One great anchor hung at tho linwseplpe, almost In the water. Tltr.t anchor would not bo taken aboard and stowed for sea until the ship won outside the river. Tho whole plciuro suddenly be came vividly clear. Drako waited until the mate had gone out, of sight; then run as rust ns ho could go right to where the boatman sat. "Hey, mate!" ho called gruffly, "(Jive inn a i-hove over, will you? 1 ve been aslmre for a last half pint and almost Inst tin. ship." "Win you th' Moke the myte's pom n'liioUin' for?" asked the iioat iikiii. Sin h escapades were common lie was at the steps even as he put the question. "He'll be glad to Bee me, all rlt-lit," grinned Drake. Jumping In tn the boat. Must let me get hold of Hie liuckropos. matey. I don't w;.nt to be copped."
