*Dut it proved otherwise. He was
balked from the outset. For two hours,
in the library of his club, in telephone
booths and elsewhere, he sought for
some tangible evidence of the existence
of a wealthy American named Martin
Wall and a yacht called the Llleth.
Citv directories and yacht club year
books alike were silent. Myth. myth,

park that skirts the Hudson. He fol

On and on down the steps and bare

lay before him. Some thirty yards
from shore he beheld the lights of a

the railroad tracks to a small landing
and leap from that Into a boat to

but a chain and padlock held it flrm^
He must hurry. Aboard the yacht,
dancing impatiently on the bosom, of
Elendrick Hudson's important dlscov
ery, he recognized the preparations for
an early departure. .
Miuot stood for a moment looking at
the wide, wet river. It

sands and shivered. He dashed in

He struck out swiftly for the yacht.

"Did. he invite vou aboard /
"Not exactly. But he'll do glad to

An expression of mingled rage and
dismay came Into the pudgy face. It
purpled in the moonlight. Its huge
owner came threateningly toward the
dripping Minot.

said savagely.

breathed Mr. Wall on Minot's damp
neck.
Two large and capable sailormen
came at sound of tbe struggle.
"Here, boys!" Wall shouted. "Help i
me toss this guy over!"
Willing hands seized Minot at oppo-1
site poles.
"One—two"— counted the sailormen.
"Well, good night. Mr Wall," re
marked Minot
"Three!"
A splash and he was ingloriously In
tbe cold river again. lie turned to
the accommodation ladder, but quick
hands drew It up. Evidently there
was nothing to do but return once
more to little old New York.
He rested for a moment, treading
water, seeing dimly the tali homes of
the cave dwellers and over them the
yellow glare of Broadway. Then he
struck out. When he reached the
shore and turned the Lileth was al
ready under way, moving slowly down
the stiver path of tbe moou. An old
man was launching the padlocked row
boat.
"Great night for a swim," he re
marked sarcastically.
"L-lovely," chattered Mliioc. "Say,
do you know anything about tuo yacht
that's just steamed oui.?"
"Not as much as I'd like to. Used
to belong to a man in Chicago. Yes
terday the caretaker told me she'd
been rented fer the winter. Seen him
tonight In a gin mill with money to
throw to the b!rds. Looks funny to
.me."
"Thanks."
"Man came this afteruoou and paint
ed out her o!d name. Changed it to
Lileth. Mighty suspicious."
"What was the old name?"
"The Lady Evelyn. If I was you I'd
get outside a drlnlc, and quick. Good
night."
As Minot dashed up the bank he
heard the swish of the old man's oars
behind. He ran all tho way to his
rooms and, after a hot bath and liquid
refreshment suggested by tlie water
man, called Mr. Thacker on the tele
phone.
"Well, Richard?" the gentleman In
quired.
"Sad news. Little Cupid's had a set
back. Tossed into the Hudson when
he tried to hoard the yacht that is tak
ing Lord Harrowby south."
"No! Is that so?" Mr. Thacker's
tone was contemplative. "Well, Rich
ard, the Palm Beach Special leaves at
midnight. Better be on it. Better go
down and help the bride with her
trousseau."
"Yes, sir. I'll do that. And I'll see
to it that she has her lamp trimmed
and burning. Considering that her fa

not to be"—
"I can't hear you, Richard. What
are you saying?"
"Nothing—er—Mr. Thacker. Look no

"All right, Richard. Ooodby, my boy.
Write me whenever you need money.
Jephson must not lose."
"Leave it to me. The Palm Beach
Special at midnight. And after that—
Miss Cynthia Meyrlck!"
No matter how swiftly your train
1ms sped through the Caroiinas and
Georgia, when it crosses the line Into
Florida a wasting languor overtakes It.
Then It hesitates, sighs and creeps
across the flat yellow landscape like an
agel alligator. Now and then It stops
completely in the midst of nothing, as
who should say: "You came down to
see the south, didn't you? Well, look
about.you."
The Palm Beach special on which
Mr. Mlnot rode was no exception to
this rule. It entered Florida and a
state of innocuous desuetude at one
and the same time. After a tremen
dous struggle it gasped its way Into
.Jacksonville about 9 o'clock of the
Monday morning following. Reluctant
as Romeo in his famous exit from Ju
liet's boudoir, it got out of Jackson
ville an hour later. And San Marco
was just two hours away according to

wearisome journey. lie wanted now
to glance across the car aisle toward
the diversion at Jacksonville.
For half a mile the train served Its
masters. Then, with a pathetic groan,
it paused. Still Mr. Minot gazed out
the -window. He gazed so long that he
saw a family of razorbacks, passed a
quarter of a mile back, catch up with
the train and trot scornfully by. After
that he kept his eyes on the live oaks
and evergreens, to whose topmost
branches bung gray moss like whiskers
on a western senator.
