Fighting ' hard. Chapter 87 TRAVELING! LIGHT THE coastwlar steamer from the capital followed a long tropical ahorellne, Doted Into the harbor proper, proceeding alowly under the direction of a native pilot, gingerly feeling the way through wateri that recently had been infested with mines. The long itolld phalanx of sun baked roofs spread out before her, coming right down to the long ship ping front with Its warehouses and cranes and coffee chutea. When she landed at her berth, a slim girl dressed in tropical white with a gay touch of color In the form of a silken purpla scarf about her throat, stepped ashore Into an at mosphere of humming chutes, star ing sweating coffee porters, Jabber ing hybrid tongues, and noisy steam ship cranes. A question mark It waa queer to sea a girl landing alone, queerer still to see that no body nvjt her. White women of her type didn't come to Proplonoira un attached. . Thla girl wore dark glasses against the glare of the aun, and If sho felt strange and alone In that stunted smelly part of the world, she didn't show It Her step waa elastic and she moved quickly and surely across the dock toward the customs house, a steward carrying two suit cases following her, ' Allaire West was traveling light this trip. Usually she had several trunks, also a maid. When she came out of the customs flock of waterfront hack driven be sieged her like chattering incompre hensible magpies, elbowing eacb other to shriek their terms, crowd ing up on her In an unwashed mob. But this cool-appearing Seflorlta wasn't flustered. She talked calmly to a taxi and got In. That aettled everything. Whoever owned It could drive her, "Cafe Kaclonal Companla," she said, and added to herself, "Atro cious Spanish, my deaiV BUT the driver understood. Nation al Coffee Company. He was a thin sallow man In soiled limp white ducks and a battered straw bat. Hla car was a creaking arrangement; stuffing bulged through gaps In the upholstery and the leather seat was sun-dried and cracked. Allaire had ridden in better equipages. 8he smiled slightly. But the car moved and that was enough. She was her)! All through the lonj air Jaunt to the capital and the trip by steamer she had made no other plans beyond Just getting here. Now she was hare and a hlg ques tion mark rode with her through narrow atreets of houses with Iron balconies and little short pillars. She was glsd when the car got out of that waterfront district and swept Into a wider cleaner avenue past parka and plaias of shrubbery trimmed In artistic design. The Latins would let their Indus tries go to rack and ruin while they flew at each other's throats, but their parks never suffered, even In Pro plonoira.

It was something familiar In the midst of grey squalid contusion. Bhe alighted before the National Coffee Company office. It waa the only place she bad to start. They were Terry Wlllett'a employers. The native clerk stared at ber Id amazement, and so did Drake, tbi tall Englishman who was manager of the branch office. "Wlllettr be repeated. "Why. he'a been in town the past few days, but he's leaving right away. Going up the river to work." "Where can I nod him?" she asked quickly. Drake rubbed his long chin with bony fingers.

"He might be In the Santlnl Hotel. If you'd like, I'll take you up there." "Thank you," she said gratefully. The Santlnl was no luxurious-looking hostelry. It was a two-storied white stone building with walla at least a foot thick and ornamented wltb those omnipresent little Iron balconies. Its bar waa the most famous thing about It, and a smell of beer and liquor seemed Impregnated In the lobby, although a few potted palms rode with Allaire, strove valiantly to keep up appear ancea. She aacended the stalra with her taciturn companion, walked down a corridor and stopped before a door. Drake knocked. "Come In I" roared two voices in unison on tbe other side. "There's a lady here to see you, Terry," called Drae. A SLIM girl In tropical white wltb a purple scarf about ber throat stood on tha threshold at Drake's side. Corrlgan'a feet came oft the table with a orash. "Holy Moses!" be murmured, dazed. There was another crash aa a glass tell from Wlllett'a Angers, which were suddenly like those of a small chtld'a.

He got up and wilked to the door, stopping to beam at the girl. "I'm Corrlgan, that lug's partner," he announced, "and If you get tired or looking for him, start looking for me." He grinned and went out, closing the door behind him. And still Wll lett was silent "Oh. please say something. Terry," the girl begged.
