NOW GO ON WITH THE STOUT I CHAPTER XXIII fpRB ahootina at Dutch Lens brought about panic among tha ipassragers. Their murmurs rose crescendo, but the fresh onslaught :bt the storm battering another lite boat from Its davits and hurling It out to sea. brought about a more fcctlve sense ot their danger. They Vegan to mm about aimlessly. They had been calm, but now they moved about, chattering like sarin monkeys. Rumors new. Why 'ad there been no reports from the bridge T Had the ship been driven oft the course Inside the reefs? Were they all doomed? It was suddenly every man (or himself. It was a mad scene ot tear, stark and In some cases, ab ject For some reason the men crowded out of the bar. The al coholic spirits inside them no longer compensated for the lack ot life preservers about their waists. Instinctively the family croups drew closer together, clutching their life belts as It they were afraid ot haying them torn away, But no such more came from the men. In the moment ot greatest danger they merely sought the companionship ot human beings in the lounge. ' Two ot the ship's officers, their U-aklns dripping water, circulated about and tried to calm the people. There was no relaxation in the stern discipline the crew main tained, but the passengers misin terpreted, these gestures. , But the orchestra played on. Ken Martin, recovered from his blow and sensing renewed panic in the crowd, began to sing, and Lin da Bayes watched him. She Joined him, and hand in hand they sang, high above the huddled groups ol people. Some ot their courage went out to the audience. Two lovers in the torm. they hsd come together. Linda hsd proved her lore for him at last I Ken was content, ,, 1 - e e ii,::V vtvhb detective wanted to ask Lin- da it she knew anything about the person who had started to strangle her in her stateroom, but e questioned Jane Instead. ' Ton didn't recognize the man?" He said. "Are yon sure it was man?". "Of course It was a man!" lane aid, "but he was masked, and had cap pulled down. I couldn't tell whether I had ever seen him be fore. It all happened so quickly, and the lights were dim. He had on a heavy coat, and be looked rather large, bulged out I don't think he knew I was in the state room with Linda. The roll ot the hip flung him against the wall. and saved her from'' 1 believe there's only one man In this," Snowshoes said. The man who killed M annle .Jackson, stole the Kokinor diamond, and then to cover up' his crime made attempts on the lives successful In one In stance ot Dutch Lens and Linda Bayes, is that man. He's abroad on the ship." "Dutch Lens may have commit ted the first crime," Dirk said ob stinately. "Now he's dead. The Ko kinor may have changed hands." , But then Snowshoes looked more pussled than ever. Jane watched him, for her own mind was racing along impossible channels. The de tective said suddenly, "It Dutch Lens didn't send that note to Lin da Bayes, who did? Who else could It have been? Somebody ashore In Nassan," he added quickly. Then his eyes had a sudden light In them, and he said, low: "There is a passenger on board this ship who Is not a passenger. He Is the corpse! And he's walking around o two legs like any ot the rest of as." Jane was aghast. Ton mean, a man came on board In that long black box? Somebody ashore'' "That's nst it I" Snowshoes laid. "It could have been arranged. We'll have to question the ship's officers who had the body in charge, but they're on heavy duty sow, trying to maneuver this ship through the storm'' "But It there is another mnn in the crime, who stole the Kokinor diamond from Nora Lane's suite?" Jane said. "Where Is Millie?" a a e ON0W6H0E8 was rubbing hla bald spot again, and he had to grin with discouragement "I think I'll lust go round np the corpse, and let the rest go hang until the storm Is over. I don't like the Idea of a corpse running around be low." With Dirk at hit side the detec tive went down to Deck B, and cautiously approached the state room where Linda had been at lacked by the masked man. The hip took a bad roll once, and they were thrown Into a heap on the floor, while the lights dimmed completely and then glowed teebly again. They were lying there, breathless ly (till, when they heard a sound ot . tapfug -In. the paasagejroy. MOWMR O isx, MCA to aa. 1 They lay still, and listened. There It was again, and It sounded more than a tap. Something was beat Ing against (he door ot a steward's linen closet They approached the closet with due caution. There waa a almple lock on It that might hare slammed hut The key waa In it But there waa undoubtedly some per son behind that door, trying des perately to get out Dirk propped himself in the Male, and Snowshoes unlocked the door, flinging It open. Something tumbled out headlong and lay on the floor, uttering one shrill cry arhlch was lost in the noise of the hurricane. , p ' v.itv "Why. It's Millie!" the detective said, but before they could touch her ahe ran away from them, up the stairs and Into the lounge. They ran after her and caught up with her just aa she flung her self, sobbing bitterly, at Madame's feet She clung to the old dowa ger and handed the Jewel-boa to her. "Millie, what have yon done? Madame was saying. ' . e THHE companion was almost hye- terlcal. "I've been locked np In that closet tor hours," she sobbed. "I thought I waa going to die. I screamed, and screamed, and no body could hear me. I was run ning from him. and climbed in the closet to hide, when I closed the door I waa locked In " Running from whom?" the de tective said. - That man! They woke me up, the stewards running np and down when the storm started. I wasnt aulte sure what It was. but I heard a noise in the suite next door. They were dragging something heavy over the floor. It was in the room where they pnt that corpse! I was shaking all over, and hid my head under the coven for a long time. But then I heard something in Madame's bedroom, and I cot really cared. I thought it might be the thing come to life again. I put an my dressing gown and went in. when I saw the thing H wore mask and was poking around In the dork I ran to Madame's pil low, and snatched np the Jewels. She cant hear well, and didn't cake up. I got by the thing to the outside door and ran down the leek and got away from him. There cere so many people running np end down. I saw that closet open. and climbed In. I dont know whether he followed me or not. I cas so scared. Madame was murmuring, "Ton poor childVyon risked your life to save my Jewels!", when Millie broke down,- "I dont want to drown." ahe sobbed, brokenly. "I aavent got a lite preserver. Every body else has one but me.' The lhip's sinking, I know. And I was locked np in that buck hole, go ing to drown, drown" The detective said, sighing, "Well, at least we dont hare to find your iewels, Madame? They're safe." ' They paused while the shin went tnrongh one of those herculean shudders again. But suddenly the detective knit his brows, closely together. . "We Haven't a single clue," he said. -This man Is Interested in dia monds and wont stop at murder to get them. But we're tnmoed. It may be any on ot these suspicions-looking touts on board. We can't keep track ot them in this torm. And it may be the corpse that walks like a man, and throws his coffin overboard in the storm." he ended unhappily. The old dowager scoffed. "There have been queer doings on this ship since I came on aboard. I wouldn't be surprised at anything. Let it walk! Nothing bothers me any more. It I've stood this much excitement my heart li good for a lew years more" "We won't And the murderer un til we And the Kokinor diamond." Snowshoes insisted stubbornly. 'And it may have chanxed hands on shipboard. And it'll probably how op In a diamond cutter's shop In Amsterdam, in dozen pieces."
