CHAPTKIl VII. (Continued.)
"I guess that'i right, too. So you had
to lock up Stembrldge?"
"Yes, I found It advisable on? day af
ter he had tried to steal the ship white
I waa ashore In San Juan." Constable
explained Ingeniously. "I'm glad you
came, because It will are me from taking
him back. That Is, unless you decide
that I'll hare to to back, too. I did play
pretty rough with you, but your man
had tne going strong about that time.
You're cot to acknowledge that he'a an
artist. Let's get out of this. What do
you plan to dor
"(Jo out and get Strmbrldge, and settle
with you."
"The word 'settle usually refers to
dollars up tn the States," Constable satd
delicately.
"It doesn't pay to buck the detective
bureau, Constable, and I'm authorised
to take cash for your part this time."
"How much?"
"Fire thousand dollars and expenses."
"It coats money to keep you off one's
hip."
"I'm Crusoe of the detective bureau,
and I usually go where I please," was
the dulcet answer.
"I'll hare to go out to the ship to get
so much money," Constable declared re
signedly. "I'll have to go out to the ship to get
8tembridge," said Crusoe. "We'll go to
gether." "Where are your men?"
"I'm working alone this trip."
"You can pick up a couple of gen
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'
talk. He was a ahrewd man in his line
and schooled, but Constable had rung
true. There Is no inclination on the
part of the public at large to concede
brilliance of acumen to the heir 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' final doubt.
"I can bundle Stembrldge very tidily,
having your moral support," he declared.
"He's too old a bird to resist arrest when
he's once cornered."
"Just a you say," Constable said
swiftly. 'Turn your rig about and fol
low on. My launch la 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 realised
bt had lost bis headache, and was drench
ed with perspiration. It was now eight.
The ladles had agreed to be ready at nine.
In case Uncle Joey bad returned with
(he mail by that time. His several er
rands must wait. The present matter
would take the entire time, and must be
dons decently and in order. The driver
waa commanded to make good speed to
ths launch, which was in readiness. Cru
soe dismissed bis rig; Constable bade bis
driver wait, and the two men boarded.
"Make ber buzz, Ernst," the owner said
to the sailor in charge. "I'm expiring
for a drink and a mouthful of clean air."
Crusoe was deeply Interested in the
present manifestation of Martinique's cli
mate, and waa not readily diverted to the
subject which challenged bis companion.
Once launched, however, upon the deal
ings of Nicholas 8tembrldge, alias Hay
den Ilreen, be- became fluent, and Con
stable learned that his guest was "the
Itajah's Diamond" among the swindlers
of civilisation.
Stembrldge, according to Crusoe, had
started a Central American revolution in
order to seize a range of, rich silver hills;
had made good, worked the mine, and
old them, a year later, "salted to a
brine," to a syndicate of New York capi
talist. He bad 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
tor do. with ail his money?" be asked
finally.
"Well, you see," Crusoe replied, "he
has bis army to pay, and he must pay
the men pretty well, for the rumor 1
abroad that tbey would go on the cross
for blm. And then he Is a golden glory
of a spendthrift. I've heard that I'arls
looks for his second coming as for a Mes
siah, since be has promised the Tender
loin a punch from the Milky Way.
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.
Tbey 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 be stood ready for
anything that might occur, and accord
ingly made haste to assist when Consta
ble sprang forward and pinioned the
newcomer about the waist. Crusoe ac
cepted bia defeat nervily, but when his
gun was removed and bis wrists enclosed
for the time being in his own manacles
he regarded hi captor with eyes of hate,
In which a little reproach was mingled.
Whit' your lay, Conlabla?" he In
quired almost steadily. "You're smarter
than I thought, and a drat more crooked."
"Listen," the other said hurriedly. "I
didn't like to do this, but there wasn't
any nay out of it. I've got a lot on my
mind thli morning, and you complicated
matters. It may be that I'm saving your
life. The mountain yonder looks as It
he were about to blow his brains out,
and I couldn't be interrupted until I got
certain ladles safely aboard here from the
town. As for the fascinating person you
call Strmbrldge, he may be my guest, and
he may not. I'll see you about that later
on. He's been square as a plumb-line to
me. You're a good man, Crusoe, and
Ilreen la, too. Your lines are different,
that's all. You'll get your five thousand
that I promised to-day. Just sit tight,
and call for anything you want. We'll
be good friends yet, Captain
Negley, have Mr. Crusoe quartered pleas
antly aft, and tell Macready to serve him
with anything be desires. I'll be back
with the ladles In about an hour. You'll
of course hare the ship keyed for a sprint
to Fort de France."
Constable hurried down the ladder, and
an Instant later was again In the launch,
which was aimed at the law-hanging pall,
back of which lay the tortured city. It
was now twenty-five minutes to nine. He
could make the plantation house slightly
after the hour.
It waa but a moment from the pter to
the carriage, and thru the half-strangled
ponies struggled gallantly through Hue
Victor Hugo and up the morne toward
the plantation bouse. Uncle Joey's rig
was at the gate, good evidence that the
mails had been brought.
Constable entered the bouse hastily at
ten minutes past nine. There was a
word of che-r upon his lips. 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 the litter .of
broken envelope and newspaper wrap
ping 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 beard footsteps above and low
voice; then a door opened and Mrs.
Stansbury crossed the upper ball 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 time In
hi life he had become cold like this,
some trait of his breed equipping blm
with an outward calm, when the Issue of
the moment waa won or lost, but lifted
from hts hand.
"What I the latest difficulty, please?"
"I would rather npt 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
waa opened and the girt stood In the aper
ture, ber anguished eyes Intent upon blm.
"I returnrd 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 bis brain with her
eyes. "Then, you have not seen the New
York paper?" he said. "You may have
this. The others are below."
She handed blm the front page of a
daily Journal, dated three weeks before.
Ills own name was there, and not in
honor. When be 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 malls."
"Where is Mr. Ilreen?"
"He went down to the city, sir."
Constable left the bouse and walked
rapidly out the driveway, turning toward
Saint Pierre. Here the man's pride In
tervened. He bad committed a folly,
perhaps, but no broad evil. The state
ment of the press war farcical. Lara
Stansbury should not have allowed ber
mother and the New York reporters to
shake ber trust. With reaction piling
upon blm its most bitter and tragic
phase, I'eter Constable conceded bis fail
ure as a lover, and turned to bis second
ary paaslon I'elee.
CHAPTKIl VIII.
Ilreen was not wholly unconscious of
danger when the large bundle of New
York papers was brought with the malls
into the library. The ladle bad 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. Ilreen was chang
ed from guest to outlaw. Miss Stansbury
followed her mother upstairs, the former
i.A.l, 'ti imruip with her. A second
account of the demoralising Incident waa
not difficult to find. Ilreen read tne fol
lowing hastily:
"Th. fi1m it Star). Mr. Peter Con
stable's splendid private yacht, cleared for
West Indian ports this morning, naving
on board the young millionaire-owner
aid. It U alleged, Nicholas SUmbridge,
the notorious revolutionist, adventurer,
and swindling promoter,
"The purpose In common of the capi
talist and fortune hunter cannot be told,
Mr. Constable has figured In the public
prints on several occasions, but chiefly
through his eccentric Ideas of practical
philanthropy. 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 he will lose at both ends
as a result of his present atllllatinus.
"Mr. Constable's frlrnd aver that the
young millionaire could not have under
stood the character of his companion for
the voyage, and point out that Nicholas
Stembrldge, at his In'st, Is a man of fasci
nating manners and rre personal accom
plishments. It has been added also that
Mr. Constable Is of a most Impulsive tem
perament, and apt to choose his compan
ion from queer arteries of society. The
young man's Innocent Intent, however,
mtght more readily be accepted, were It
not for the Important fact that Nicholas
Stembrldge, who Is known to have been
In hiding for several days In New York,
was seen on board the de Stael shortly
before she sailed; positively recognised.
It is satd, by an astute and reliable mem
ber of the local detective force."
A sptrlted description of the episode on
the Ilrooklyn pier followed; also a por
tion of Nicholas Stembrldge' police rec
ord. The conservative character of the
paper In which the foregoing appeared
led Ilreen to believe that the account
which had fallen Into Mrs. Stanbury'a
hand might be considerably more emblaa
oned ami embellished. Ills first thought
was that he had become a source of hor
ror to the women, and that he must put
himself out of their sight.
Hreen was not a conscienceless man. A
fatalist, a-spendthrift, a power that prey
ed upon the powers that prey, a polished
reveller all these he might be, but his
blood waa clean from the taint of person
al treachery. He had come to like Con
stable. The friendship was guileless. He
had even thought, with a trace of humor
In certain moments, that It was worth
being called bark from the Ilrooklyn pier
for such a large and clear emotion. It
I possible that he had never in his life
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 the houie.
Ills own body had felt all, even the
moral dissolution which crawls Into the
brain to prepare a place for the sinister
guest, sutclde. 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.
Ilreen was smitten with the ugliest pun
ishment that clean fiber Is given to writhe
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 waa probably
aboard. Ilreen wasn't ready yet to meet
the roan he had hurt- He must think.
Moreover, by no means did be Ignore the
possibility of the Panther bringing one
of his logical enemlrs, nor was he ready
to face an accumulation of consequences
In the shape of a man hunter. He turn
ed to the right at the base of the morne,
and made his way up one of the winding
paths to the terraced streets. That his
step led blm to the fruit shop, where he
had planned not to go again, seemed now
but a paltry addition to the Incubus
which bad so suddenly possessed blm.
At the first terrace be turned and star
ed bark through the smoke. The launch
bad just touched the pier at the Sugar
Landing. The tall figure of Constable
stepped forth and hastened to the car
riage, which was driven rapidly toward
the morne, Ilreen smiled, because It waa
easier for him to smile than to cry for
mercy. Constable was belng driven swift
ly to the plantation house, whr he
would find the ugly work that had been
done there. Mrs. Stansbury would not
board a ship that had been a thief
refuge.
Hue de Illvoll was white and empty.
The door of the shop waa shut but not
locked, and the little round window dark
ened with a cloth. Ilrren entered, slam
ming the door quickly, to keep out the
hot, poisoned air of the street. The dark
shop was a empty of human as the
thoroughfare, but a quick step sounded In
the rear. Pere Itabeaut entered from the
asb-qullted court.
"What a day, M. Ilreen t Ths birds
are dead and dying. Soronla Is III unto
death "
"Soronla III I" Ilreen said under bis
breath.
The otd man hastened away. At the
rear doorway, Soronla pushed by him.
Her hair was unfastened, and ths loos
white garment that she wore waa open at
the throat. The father stared a If shs
were a specter. His lip moved, and be
turned suddenly to the man (landing In
front of the ihop. She moved toward
the American.
Her eye aroused him. The darknes
had no power to divest tbem of expres
sion, for the passions were burning there
fear lest this was not flesh which filled
ber gaze; ecstasy In that he was there at
all, In life or death or dream. HI act of
yesterday had wrought the ghastly pallor;
the deathly illness wa heart-starvation.
She touched his shoulder and hi cheek
with chilling hands; there fell from her
Up strange, low word of no language
that he knew. Suddenly she caught hi
hand to her breast, whispering that she
had feared she wa dreaming.
"What were you dreaming, little one?"
he questioned.
"I thought I wa dying when I heaid
your -voice. You said you said you
would come no more."
"Hut did I not come, little fairy? Who
could remain away from you?"
She seized bl face In her cold bands,
whispering, "Do you mean that you wlli
tay?"
