THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN, WEDNESDAY, SBI’TRMItEIt 3G, |H», DOUBLOONS A THRILLING NOVEL OF MYSTERY, TRAGEDY AND A STOLEN FORTUNE By EDEN PHILLPOTTS AND ARNOLD BENNETT CHAPTER XXIX. Auekengray’s Second Sight, •'Hullo,' Tony!” sold Philip with an affectation of Imperturbable calm atood at the door of the drawing room galoon, holding aside the green portleA with one hand. Sir Anthony was seat ed at the little Broadwood piano, ab sently engaged In the Infantile game pushing down the keys without making a sound. One of Mrs. Appleby's most emotional songs, "O Dry Those Tears." was open on the music stand. The baronet turned, saw Philip, grasped the fact that it really was Philip, and then vented his first explosion of sur prise In a terrific oath Involving him self, and beginning with the first per son singular of the present tense of an auxiliary verb. Nothing but that par ticular oath would have met the case. He strode half way across the floor, then stopped, and deliberately repeated the oath. Whereupon they met and shook hands. It la difficult for complex and self- observant souls to behave quite natu rally under stress of such strange meet ings. but Tony's soul was simple, and he behaved with perfect naturalness. His pleasure and satisfaction and curi osity expressed themselves freely and naively, and the greatest of these was perhaps his satisfaction. He forgot Instantly the failure of the day and the list of his stupidities, and saw only that he had traversed half the world to find Philip and had found him. His opinion of himself flew up like a flag, and he honestly thought that Sir An- thdny was one of the cleverest fellows on earth. "Well, well, old chap!” he bussed glowingly round Philip. "You see I got your famous salver all right, and came after you at once. And here we are! Well, well! Came straight to Scent breast high, upon my word. (Copyright, IPOS, by Eden PhlUpotts and Arnold Pennetbl both you and the police also.” Tony blushed at mention of the po- I™, He had not quite ([or-otten his hoodwinking of the morn. The police have been Informed," said he, awkwardly. "But they would nave nothing to do with my expedition. I expect they are still poking about London to And Pollexfen.” ,L' ke ’em." Philip observed. Now, old chap, to business. You've decided you won't give up the Job." Im d d If I do,” said Sir Anth ony. "I'll see It through. Pollexfen may get his precious treasure, but what s he going to do with It when he gets it? We'll follow him everywhere till we can put him in Jail.” "Pardon the liberty, sir,” Oxwlch put "But do you believe everything that everybody tells you?” "What do you mean?" /'I mean, sir, about this treasure store. It seems to me It's rather late In Anno Domini for a smart chap like this Pollexfen to be hunting for treas ure. If he's really serious he must have slipped by accident Into the wrong century." "I neither believe nor disbelieve.' Philip answered. "I know Pollexfen Is one of the greatest actors alive. And I admit him to be capable of deceiv ing any one about anything. But still I Incline to the opinion that he has not deceived me on this point, ond that he Is certainly searching for doubloons." Doubloons!" 8tr Anthony repeated the gorgeous word. Impressed. "And my notion Is that when a man like Pollexfen Is seriously searching for doubloons and has committed a homicide or so In furtherance of his quest doubloons are likely to be about. . . You don't think so, Oxwlch?' ‘To be frank, sir,” said Oxwlch, i not.” . “I was of your opinion at first. Ox wlch." He looked at his watch. “Time' up," he said. "But how ore you going back? You won't have one of our boats, my son, >:?“■ vo!f"vmi “» promise you,” said Sir Anthony. Now tell me how you got aboard. You - ' White Rose's boat waiting along. “ side. Qoodby! Good luck! I'm glnd gave me a rare start! "I wont a drink," said Philip, drop ping Into a chair. "Of course you do. Oxwlch! ring for Oxwlch.” And he rang. The electric bell was out of order, but a sufficiently loud ell ver gong stood on a slije table with lot of bottles and glasses. The demeanor of Oxwlch, who, en tering with extreme quietude, saw Phil Ip before Philip saw him, was a pleas. Ing study in self-control. He had the heroism to display no symptom of even the mildest until Philip spoke to him. "Glad to see you again, Oxwlch." "Very kind of you, sir. I am more than glad to see you, sir." That was all. He rubbed his hands slowly. "Whisky and soda, eh?" Tony ques tloned abrutly. Philip nodded. "Whisky and soda. Yes, sir," said Oxwlch, going to the side table, turned his head and Inquired with steady features: ''Stiff, Mr. Masters?" "Stiff, Oxwlch.” "Mine, too, Oxwlch," said Sir An thony. "I may as well tell you at once, said Philip, taking the glass ceremon lously offered by Oxwlch, "1 cant stop here. I’ve got to go back. I'm only here on leave. I must get away again to the other yacht. Oxwlch, will you refill my glass? Thanks.” He then succinctly gave the Informa, tlon which he had already Imparted to Mary. “Why, man, you’re mad!” Tony ex. claimed. ••Am I?" said Philip. "And what would you do In my place? Break your word ?’ "Another, sir?" Oxwlch mildly asked, "No, thanks.” "Do you hear this, Oxwlch?" the baronet cried. "Mr. Masters Intends in go back to the scoundrel, and what Is more, ho wants us to give up the ex pedition." His accent on the word •expedition’ narrowly escaped the sub lime. "But listen, Oxwlch," Philip argued, addressing the man Instead of the mas ter. "You know enough of Pollexfen to know how dangerous the thing Is. Sir Anthony has no Idea what he Is going In for." "Might I ask, sir, what this Pollex fen Is going In for?" Oxwlch observed. "Treasure,” said Philip. "And he means to get It, and to get all of It, "In the immediate district, sir?" "At the Grand—No, I canpot talk about that. I was forgetting my promise.” "Just so, sir. You stopped Just In time, didn't you, sir?" "And you must remember,” said Philip, glancing at Tony, "that you've got ladles on board." "Leave ’em ashore here," Tony re turned. _ "If I may venture to say so, sir,’ Ox. wlch remarked, ”1 doubt whether the ladles would consent to be left. But, on the other hand, I do not see the danger. Considering that the Wander er is guaranteed to steam thirteen knots and can really steam twelve, whereas It appears that the White Rose can only steam eight, I do not tee the danger, at any rate to those who remain on board the Wanderer. If I hnve aright the lessons of the last naval manoeuvres, we should always be able to choose our distance.” "Yes, of course," said Sir Anthony. "That’s exactly what I was thinking. Nothing can prevent us from keeping Pollexfen In sight, rnd we run no risk In doing so." “That depends," said Philip. "What does It depend on?” "It depends on Pollexfen. I've not spent a fortnight with him for noth ing. Are the police on his track, too? Because I back him to be equal to you've decided not to give up. What really came over for was to explain my position to you.” He took Tony af fectionately by the shoulder. ”1 shall be all right. I've made my bed amri fancy I can He on It. See one another again when this little nffalr Is over. Au revolr, Oxwlch." And he shook Oxwlch's unwilling hand. There was a certain amount of feel Ing In the air. "I suppose you've heard of 'force ma Jeure,’ sir,” Oxwlch remarked, tran qullly. -v "Vaguely," Philip smiled. "Why? "You are going back to that rascal In the White Rose, sir, If I may say so. In pursuance of a promised word. You gave your oath you wouldn't do anything agalnit him, and you gave your oath to return." "I did." "Well, sir, there's an article in The Encyclopedia Brltannlca that says that an oath of promise given under 'force majeure,' If I may use the term, li not binding, either morally or legal ly.” Philip laughed. "That’s not good enoui sslcl-he.' "You have advantage of me as regards the Encyclopedia Brltannl ca. But you know I'm an English man." rather expected you would say that, sir," Oxwlch rejoined. "And " didn't suppose that sort of an ency clopedla argument would appeal to you. But," he turned to his master, "there's another sore of force majeure, and another sort of argument. Sir Anthony, that will appeal to Mr. Masters, even If he's an Englishman fifty t|mes over. As I am myself, sir," "What’s that?" "The brute force argument, sir. If may say so. Mr. Masters might be R sevented from leaving the yacht. 'We’ ave given no promise to tills Pollex fen person. We owe no explanations to this Pollexfen person. We didn't ask Mr. Masters to come on board—Excuse me, sir, I'm sure I'm delighted you've come/’ “By Jove, Oxwlch," Sir Anthony stamped his feet. “That's just what I was thinking myself. Why should we let Mr. Masters go? We won't let you go, old man. Consider yourself our prisoner. We'll keep you.” It was as If a thunderstorm had sud denly gathered Its forces around them and was about to break. "Will you?” said Philip queerly. think not" "Oh, nonsense!" the baronet laughed awkwardly. "Come, old man. You'll give up." And he selxed hts arm. "Loose me,” said Philip, flushing, Loose me! Don't be a fool. What kind of a nice position are you going to put me In?" "I don't think that Mr. Masters' feel ings ought to be taken Into considera tion, Sir Anthony. Of course, he must struggle. We recognise that. But you and I, sir, will be too many for him.” The two men closed on Philip, who fought desperately and with swift an ger. Do you think Pm struggling for the sake of struggling?" he exclaimed. “Let me go. It's disgraceful. I've promised, and my promise has got to be kept” "That's It, sir," said Oxwlch, breath ing hard. "Stick to his arm. We can lock him up In the smoking room, sir." As Oxwlch spoke these words slight sound came from the smoking room, which communicated with the drawing room; but the three men were too deeply absorbed In themselves to hear It. The battle waged hotly; two chairs were overturned; a glass was knocked from the table and found dis aster on the carpet. And then Sir Anthony caught sight of a figure In the doorway at the op- "WHEN IN THE COUR8E of human events It becomes necessary" to build a house, a home, a hovel, 4 hut, a barn, a bungalo, a factory, a tene ment, a shelter, a shack, a shed or any place requiring roofing, consult "“"“VULCANITE It Is the logical thing to use, for reasons too numerous to mention.

Mary Pollexfen stood there, pale In her white dress against the dark background. She' was mo, tinnless; she might have been there long time. “What are you doing. Sir Anthony she asked In a faltering voice, and stepped forward Into the room. Oxwlch collected himself and aumed the valet's posture, but his era vat was accusingly untied. "We—we're stopping Phil from run nlng off," replied the baronet. “And does Mr. Masters want tp be stopped ?'■ "No, I don't," said Philip with fierce emphasis. "I don’t, and I won’t be!" "I may be wrong, Sir Anthony," Mary said, “but I think Mr. Masters ought to decide." She was glorious In that Instant with dilated nostrils, eyes flashing, and arm regally uplifted. “But, Miss Pollexfen, If I may rtn ture"—Oxwlch began. “Oxwlch!" his master thundered. "Good-bye," said Philip. "Miss Pol lexfen, I'm obliged to you. Good-bye." He passed out of the saloon and up the companion, and the others followed In silence. It was a singular scene, peculiarly Illustrative of the English character. The moment the saloon was empty. Coco came Into the smoking room. Five minutes later those on the deck of the "Wanderer" followed with their eyes a moving train of phosphorescence as It receded mysteriously over the water to the dying flash of oars. The captain and crew had slept through the episode the righteous sleep of honest tars In port. The next morning at 8 o'clock the “Wanderer" was coaling, and Captain Chetwodc In a bad temper, as captains Invariably are during such operations. It was observed that the "White Rose" also was coaling, and since she could be satisfied with less coal than the “Wanderer" she had finished first, and she was off westward. "Sir Anthony, his nerves afflicted by the experience of the night, requested Captain Chetwode to keep her In sight much as he might have told the driver of one cab In Piccadilly to follow an other cab In Piccadilly. And Captain Chetwode, ever on the watch for an Instant, resented the Instructions. What he resented more than the Instructions was the air of mystery that surrounded Sir Anthony, Mary and Oxwlch. In spite of his admirable pretence of hav Ing no curiosity, he hated to be kept out of a secret. The boy and the boy's mother had not yet awakened. Just before weighing anchor a re markable discovery p*as made. Htftl It been In the manner in which It was meant to have been made, the result would have been serious. Happily ma. tine engineers have a "flair" In regard to their machinery which amounts to the magic of second-sight. Some mys terious Impulse prompted Auchengray to send a boat around to Inspect the screw. Why should he have done so* There was no reason save that he was a marine engineer and Auchengray. then became apparent that some un known had wound a one-inch chain cable round the rudder post and round two blades of the propeller. The trick had been accomplished with malignant Ingenuity, In such manner that one revolution of the‘engine would certain ly have smashed or fatally twisted the blades of the propeller. But for Au- chengray's "flair” the yacht might have been laid up In Bridgetown for a week or a month. As It was, the delay did not exceed an hour. (Continued In Tomorrow's Georgian.)
