had dropped the anchor, half a mile
from shore, amid the multicolored craft
of Carlisle Bay. She was surrounded,
at a respectful distance, by a ring of
small boats. One boat alpne had ap
proached her, and from this boat i
man In white, with functionary written
over all his body, climbed In due sol
emnity her towering side. -The cap
tain and the first officer received him
In state. He shook hands with Tony,
and bowed low to the ladles. Horace
Appleby mistook him for some local
sultan. But he was merely the medi
cal officer of Bridgetown, come to give
pratique. 1 Several vessels In the har
bor were Dying the yellow flag, a fact
which Impressed Horace enormously.
“All well here?” asked the captain.
•’All well,” said the medical officer..
’And you?”
"AH well.”
This assurance, however, did not pre
vent him from looking at Horace's
tongue, nor from taking the tempera
ture of Oxwlch. He was new to his
post, and had not yet outgrown the
aptitude to bo over-con*clentlnu».
Mary Pollexfen whispered to Sir An
thony, and the baronet stepped for
ward.
Pardon me,” he said. "Has the
yacht White Rose arrived?”
”1 have seen no such yacht,” an
swered the official.
"And she could not have put In with
out ybur knowledge?”
•’Impossible!” exclaimed the officer,
shocked at such an Idea.
After having devised A new cocktail
for the captain he departed with the
ceremonies that had accompanied his
arrival. Then the ring of boats closed
In on the Wanderer from every side.
It wns useless for Coco, In magnificent
array, to protest to these barbarian
watermen that they were not wanted,
and that the Wanderer's launch was
being got ready. They screamed and
fought with one another in their red-
cushioned craft, determined to obtain
fares or perish In the attempt. Horace
could have wished them pirates. When
the launch puffed away shorewnrds,
with the captain And Tony's entire
wooden tile*, silver-gray In the tre*
mendous sunshine, with open shop
fronts and bright green Jalousies to the
windows, shone under a canopy of
deep blue sky; while the glaring road
cast up a shimmer of hot air, with puffs
of dust at every stray breath of wind
or passage of hoof or wheel. Noisy
crowds traveled up anti down. Little
trams, with tinkling bells, passed in
cessantly to Bellfleld, Fontabelle and
other places without the metropolis;
teams of squealing mules brought down
barrels of sugar and molasses from the
Estate! Donkeys bore bright bundles
of greeiKcane tops, public conveyances
crawled by the sidewalks nnd private
buggies hurried about, their feminine
occupants generally wearing black
veils to shield their eyes from the dax-
sle of tho white coral streets.
Women filled tho footways. With
naked feet, white dresses and gay tur
bans, they wandered chattering along I
each with a basket on her head. They
sold cocoanuts, sugar cane, oranges,
limes, mangoes, yams, fish cakes,
sweetmeats, nuts, pineapples, bananas,
pickles and a hundred other commodi
ties. Mrs. Appleby vastly admired these
women, upright as dart* from the cus
tom of carrying their wares upon their
heads, with their ceaseless movement,
their quaint whining cachlnnatlon and
their brilliant glitter of black eyes and
white teeth. She also probably envied
them their scanty toilets as the sun
smote pitilessly down. The men toll
ed, urged on their cattle, Jabbered In
cessantly, ordered each other about
and shone like metal statues where
their hot chocolate skins burst out of
their rags. At shady corners, or where
balconies threw a shadow, sat the loaf
ers—a very numerous throng. They
munched cane and fruit, bargained
with the women who sold drink, suck
ed lumps of ice when they could steal
them, smoked pipes and their long
cigars. laughed, chaffed, told atorles,
gesticulated and played the fool. An
cient and tattered human ruins wan
dered about begging; a dosen boys
rushed .yelling past baiting an old in
sane negro; a gray, bent blind man
loudly demanded • alms; children
swarmed like files; little mites with
black woolly heads and naked limbs~
all colors from India Ink to putty—
sat In the sun and rolled In the gutters
and played with their toes and crowd
her agreeable Inclination to
, bad Indeed yielded to the effects
variegated tall of a comet, still str!
dently answering the Insults which Co
co poured out upon them.
"I suppose you've got your rev
uncle,” Horace demanded, as they
stepped ashore.
•’No,” said Tony. "I am relying on
you to defend us nil.”
Well, then, I shall buy a revolver,
said Horace, stoutly, "and a belt. And
I shall put the revolver In the belt,
can, can’t I, mother?”
If your uncle wishes,” said the ma
tron, “but It mustn't be loaded.”
"Now, Just listen to that, uncle!”
Horace protested. "What's the good of
a revolver If It Isn’t loaded? Jsn’t that
exactly like a woman?"
"At what hour do you
to the yacht. Sir Anthony?” the captain
formally inquired.
"As soon as you’ve coaled her, cap
tain,” was Tony’s reply, given with a
terrific air of determination.
That may be today or It may be to
morrow,” the captain said.
But can’t you make ft today?" Mary
asked.
The captain looked at her.
"I can try,” he said, and disappeared.
Oxwlch also had vanished. But Coco
remained, a glorious and excessively
Important Coco, resolved to do the hon
ors of the capital.
“You come dls way. You all come
dis way!” He flourished an arm. "You
come wld me to the Ice House, and I

her, opening his cigarette rase.
"wonderful, Isn’t It?" said Tony,
leaning on the hot wohden balustrade,
as they gased at the riotous 8omhrrn
scene In the sweltering square below
them. Mary nodded.
“You don’t seem quite happy,” Tony
blunderingly began after a pause, as he
aimed a spent match at he head of a
stout negress who was carrying an Im
mense bssket of linen. Mary met his
eyes, and then her glance wandered
over his faultlessly arrayed figure, Im

absolutely the presence of negroes oth

for white customers, burst in upon
them In a froxen frensy of excitement.
