Oral CoWin One Day, CrtptnS ?ays ^
A flood of golden morning suushlne
streaming through the windows and
fulling full* upou his face awakened
Tom Goodhue. It awakened him with
a rather unpleasant start and brought
to his mind the disquieting suspicion
that he had overslept.
He came out of bed with a bound
and looked at his watch. It was 9:30
?half past 0. and he hud au appoint
ment to go sulling with Helen Caverly
at 9 sharp! Surely the gods of mlsfor
tuue severally and collectively were
following in his train!
He dressed In record breaking time,
bounded down the stairs and, break
fastless, made ail speed to the long
pier in front of the hotel, his mind
busy with the many apologies he would
undoubtedly need In a few moments.
But the apologies were doomed, for
the present at least, to remalu unspo
ken, for when he reached the pier he
saw, running out of the harbor before
the smart breeze, u knockabout with .1
well known pennant fluttering from the
must .
Evkleutl.v Miss Cuverly hud grown
wenry of waiting for hlni. Goodhue
took a long, lugubrious look at the dis
tant sull nnd groaned.
Yet he was not the man to submit
tamely to adverse circumstances. At
the end of the pier lay hope lu the
shape of bin own- power boat, pulliuc;
at her painter as she swung to the tide.
In u moment he had scrambled aboard,
pulled the cover from the engine and
turned over the flywheel.
There was a series of sharp it-ports.
He threw off the moorings, sprang to
the little wheel In the bow. and the
power bout went tearing away from
the pier. Bending up twin waves of
white spume at her bow as she sped
lu pursuit of the distant knockabout.
The engine of a power boat, how
ever, Is not one of the things to be
classod nmong such certainties as
death and taxes. Scarcely had he
"I'M GOISO TO FINISH OUT THAT TRO- |
F08AL," ilE DECLARED.
passed the can buoy on- the outer
legJo when there was au ominous
coughing of the exhaust.
Immediately It grew spasmodic and
seemed to take a half hearted, despair
ing note. Then It ceased altogether,
and with this cessation the little craft I
lay helpless on the long swells coming I
In from the bay.
Countless precedent cases had taught
Goodhue what to do. lie pulled oft '
his coat, caught up a wrench and at- !
tacked the cuglnc, not without a cei
tain grim wrath.
At the end of half nu hour, despite
all his art and ail his mad efforts with
the wrench, the engine, beyond a few
derisive, choking puffs, refused to re
spond.
Goodhuo hurled the wrench angrily
iuto the locker, shook a vindictive fist
at the balky machinery and delivered
himself of his opinions concisely and
forcefully.
Then he looked despairingly at the
sail momentarily growing smaller to
the eastward and ruefully surveyed
the blue streak of shore behind him,
not without certain poIgnanUlonglngs
for breakfast.
All his labors had merely succeeded
In getting him stalled here In the mid
dle of the bay. lie granted his dis
gust. tied his handkerchief to a boat
hook as an Improvised signal of dis
tress and set It up In the stern. Then
he stretched himself upon the cush
ions and calmly went to sleep. .
He was awakened by rippling laugh
ter. He jumped up to find close along
side a knockabout with Its sail rattling
sharply as It headed Into the wind. By
the tiller was Helen Caverly. tier eyes
sparkling as she took In his plight.
Goodhue struck a melodramatic atti
tude, one hand on his forehead, the
other at bis throat.
"Help!" he cried, nodding toward his
distress signal.
The girl laughed again.
"What on earth are you doing out
here so early in the morning?" she said
mockingly. "Are you aware that It Is
but a trltle past 10:30?"
"I f!m pursuing yon," said he, "or,
rather, I was pursuing you until thls
thls unmentionable engine went back
on me."
"And why were you pursuing me?"
"I wanted that sail yon promised
me this morning."
"I waited for you untii long after 0."
Goodhue grinned sheepishly. "I? I
overslept," be confessed tamely. "Then
when I got down to the pier and found
you gone I started out in tlie power
boat? without any breakfast."
"What noble self sacrifice!" she
mocked.
"And I'd hav-- caught you, too, but
for that engine. It always breaks
down when you want Jt most. How
ever, you've seen my plight and come
alongside, and that's the main thing,
after nil. We can lmvo that sail now,
can't we?"
? Do you think she deserves It?"
"Frankly, I don't, but I'm going to
trust to your generosity."
She looked at him doubtfully for :i
moment "Of course," she said at
length, "I can't desert you like this,
hclplesft as you are upon the high seas.
Conic aboard. I'll tow you back. You
must be very hungry by this time."
Goodhue caught up the boat hook,
pulled the power boat alongside the
knockabout and scrambled over her
rail. In a niomeut the painter was
fast, and, towing the helpless craft be
hind her. the kuoekabout was headed
shoreward.
The girl held the tiller. Goodhue
sat down beside her.
"I was particularly anxious to come
out Balling with you this morning,"
s;Ud he.
"So It would seem," she observed
dryly.
"Thore was a very particular reason
why I shouldn't miss It," he went on
placidly, Ignoring her tore. "I wanted
to tlnish out what I was saying to you
night before last on the Gregorys'
piazza when that Idiot of n Benson
came out and interrupted us."
A wave of color surged into the girl's
cheek. Her nose went up In the air a
fraction of an inch.
"T'nder the circumstances," said she,
"considering the fact that I have just
rescued you from a rather trying sit
uation, It seems to me no gentleman
would take advantage" ?
Goodhue moved closer to her.
"No gentleman would have missed
his appointment with you this morn
ing," said he. "Therefore I am no
gentleman. Following out the same
course of logic, the fact that I am no
;:< ntleman absolves n o from playing
the gentleman's part of silence Just
now. I will take the tiller, Helen."
He took It. The girl began hastily
trimming tlie sheet
"I am going to tlulsh out that pro
posal." he declared. "If you won't
listen t<> me I sjiall refuse to be
saved. I shall return to the power
boat and trust myself to the mercies
of these treacherous waters," he end-'
ed. looking tragically at the quiet sea
about them.
"Besides which," he went on, "kind
ly remember that I have had no break
fast. Will you listen?"
The girl turned to him with flushed
face, but her eyes were shining.
"You certainly must have that break
fast." she chuckled. "Go ahead. I am
aif~attentlon."
London Fog.
A London fog brings out hundreds of
tlitevos, but it also brings out men who
are wanted by the police. A detective
told n representative of the press
about two curious Instances of thieves
being caught In this way:
We had been on the lookout for
weeks for a swindler who had stolen
bonds In his possession. The Inspector
who had the warrant nt last declared
that the luan must have got out of the
country. But one densely foggy night
the Inspector happened to be In a quiet
street not far from Bedford square,
w)n-n a stranger, against whom ho
nearly ran, said:
"Can you tell me precisely whero I
am? I've got mixed up somehow."
"Follow me and I'll show you," said
+he officer. And he did show Iilin? to
the police station, for the man was the
very one he had been looking for.
In another case a sergeant, In one of
the thickest fogs ever known, politely
helped a lady in distress near the Ken
sington road. The lady couldn't even
recognize her own house among sev
eral ail alike, and the sergeant, on her
behalf, knocked at a door and was an
swered by a man.
The lady did not live there, .but an
hour or two afterward I arrested the
man who had come to the door. He
was a German baker, the head of a
large firm, and we had been seeking
him for months.
The Man In the Houso.
The hour was midnight In the home
of the Ramscatters. The family con
sisted of Mr. and Mrs. Ramscatter and
their young son, George, nlmost at the
age of maturity. All had retired when
suddenly a loud yell penetrated the
air.
"There's a man in the house!"
The alarm awakened mother and fa
ther. They jumped up, screaming:
"Where? Where?"
"Here:"
It was George's voice. Ramscatter
proceeded cautiously across tho hall to
his son's room with a revolver In one
hand. He was followed by his wife.
"George, are you Injured?" shouted
the father.
"There's a mau in the house!" came
tho reply.
Ramscatter prepared to fire as he
threw open the door.
"I don't see any man!" he exclaimed
as he flashed on the electric lights.
"He's right here," answered the son.
"What do you mean, George?"
"I mean that It's now Ave minutes
after V2 o'clock. Today Is my birth
day, and I'm twenty-one years old."?
