nounced by
CAPTAIN STEVKNS of tho Or

sneaks aboard the ship as one of
the crew. On the Orontes Is

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?

"Win you th' Moke the myte's
