CHAPTER XXIX.
Auckengray'a Second Sight.
"Hullo, Tony!" paid Philip with an
affectation of Imperturbable calm; he
atood at the door of the drawing room
■aloon, holding aside the green portiere
with one band. 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 Is difficult for complex and self
observant souls to behave quite natu
rally under stress of suoh strange meet
ings, but Tony's soul was simple, and
he behaved with perfect naturalness.
His pleasure nnd 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
And Philip and had found him. His
opinion of himself flew up like a flag,
and he honestly thought that Sir An
thony 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
you. Scent breast high, upon my word.
Now tell me how you got aboard. You
gave me a rare start!” ,
"I want 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 sll
outwitting both you and the police
also.
Tony blushed at mention of the po
lice. He had not quite forgotten his
hoodwinking of the mom.
P° llce have been informed,”
said he, awkwardly. “But they would
have nothing to do with my expedition.
I expect they are still poking about
London to find Pollexfen.”
"Just like ’em,”' Philip observed.
Now, old chap, to business. You’ve
decided you won’t give up the Job.”
"I’m f 1 ll If T (1A •• Dr, 1.1 DIh A — * l

ony. "I'll see It through. Pollexfen
may get his precious treasure, but
what'* 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 pi..
In. "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

Philip answered. "I know Pollexfen li

I admit him to be capable of decelv

ncllne to the opinion that he has
not deceived me on this point, and
that hs Is certainly searching
doubloons.”
Doubloons!” Sir Anthony repeated
ver gong stood on a side table with a
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
tlonsd abrutly.
Philip nodded.
"Whisky and soda. Yes, sir,” said
Oxwlch, going to the side table. He
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 ceretnon
lously offered by Oxwlch, "I can't stop
here. I’ve got to go back. I'm tmly
here on leave. I must get away again
to tt)e other yacht. Oxwlch, will you
reflll my glass? Thanks.”
He then succinctly gave the Informa
tion 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
to go back to the scoundrel, and what
Is more, he 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 cannot 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."
"I.eave 'em ashore here,” Tony re
turned.
"If t may venture to say so, sir," Ox
wlch remarked, "I doubt whether the
ladies 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
Bose can only steam eight, I do not see
the danger, at any rate to those who
remain on board the Wanderer. If I
have 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, >nd we run no risk
In doing so.”
"That depends," said Philip.
"What does it depend on?”
"It depends on Pollexfen. Pve not

Because I back him to be equal to

for doubloons and has committed a

quest doubloons are likely to be about.
. . You don't think so, Oxwlch?"
"To be frank, sir," said Oxwlch,
do not.”
"I was of your opinion at first, t
wich." He looked at his watch. "Tin

Oxwlch's unwilling hand.
There was a certain amount of feel

"I suppose you’ve heard of 'force ma-

qullly.
"Vaguely." Philip smiled. "Why?"

"I did."
"Well, sir, there's an article In The
Encyclopedia Brltanntca that says that

majeure,' If I may use the term, is
not binding, either morally or legal
ly."
Philip laughed.

said. he. * "You have advantage of me

he turned to his master, "there’s

"What's that?"

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 bad sud

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 seised his 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.
struggling?" he exclaimed. "Let
me go. It's disgraceful. I've promised,
and my promise has got to he 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 a
slight sound came from the smoking
room, which comtnunlcated with the
drawing room; but the three men were
ton deeply absorbed In themselves to
hear It. The battle waged holly; two
chairs were overturned; a glass was
knocked from the table and found dis
aster on the carpet.
And then Sir Anthony oaught sight
of a figure In the doorway at the op
posite end of the saloon faom tho smok
ing room, and he Instinctively desisted
from the attack. Mary Pollexfen stood
there, pale In her white dress against
the dark background. She was mo
tionless; she might have been there a
long time.
“What are you doing, Sir Anthony V
she asked In a faltering. voice, and
stepped forward Into the room.
Oxwlch collected himself and as
sumed the valet's posture, but his cra
vat was accusingly untied.
"We—we're stopping Phil from run
ning off," replied the'baronet.
"And docs Mr. Masters want to be
stopped ?"
"No, I don’t," said Philip with fierce
emphasis. "I don't, and I won't be!”
iut ' “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 regully uplifted.
“But, Miss Pollexfen, If I may ven
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 uid up
the companion, and the others followed
In silence. It was a singular scene,
peculiarly illustrative of the English
character. The moment the saloon waa
empty. Coco came Into the smoking
room.
Five minutes later those on the deck
of the "Wanderer" followed with their
eyea 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
Chetwode 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 tho watch for an
Instant, resented the Instructions. What
he resented more than tho Instructions
was tho air of mystery that surrounded
Sir Anthony, Mary and Oxwlch. In
spite of his admirable pretence of hav
ing no curiosity, he hated tft 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 was made. Had It
been In the manner In which It was
meant to have been made, the result
would have been serious. Happily ma
rine 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. It
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.

"The Toast of the Town.**
Clyde Fitch has hit upon s novel Idea and
one that successful dramatists sre likely to
appropriate. Ono of the terrors of putting
on a new play In New York Is the Inability
to secure facilities for rehearsals with
scenery and eontumen, the theaters In the
Metropolis being used almost constantly
day and night. Ordinarily managors are
compelled to produce their plays out of
town before coming to New York for the
reason.that they are then enabled to se
cure the use of a stage for full dress re
hearsals. Mr. Fitch demands that compa
nies appearing In his plays shall rehcarso
with scenery for at least two weeks before
production, and that at least six perform
