THE SUN WAS will over in the

these latitudes doesn't die until al
most sun-down, was still fanning tne
Island with Its delightful breath. It
wa* most welcome as «c strolled out
on the dock 1 noticed that orders
had been earned out. The schooner
was riding at anchor a few hun
dred feet from the pier.
“Ahoy." and Toni waved his arm
to the deck watch. "Send the mate
ashore!" Th« man understood for
presently we watched ae the mate
came over the side, unfastened the
skiff and rowed over.
"We'll have to make arrangements
for guarding this place thoroughly,
twenty-four hours a day." Tom said.
Interpreting his action to me. The
mate fastened the boat and climbed
up on the dock.
"Can you round up a dozen good
men for guarding this place. Pinga?”
be asked. “Men you can trust."
The mate nodded and Tom con
tinued: “Post them on regular ship’s
watch or any way you choose. You
will be in charge and responsible for
preventing any. surprise attack. I
Jon’t think there’ll be one. but after
what has happened we are not tak
ing any chances."
“Better have them eat at the pal
ace. and t’tey can bunk either with
you on the schooner or at the boat
house." I said. “If you need blan
kets or anything else come - up and
get them."
Tom turned to the mate: “Keep a
man in the tower, one on the mam
floor *and one outside—and caution
that man not to stand close to any
corner of the building. Station the
others where ever you see fit"
"How about arms?" 1 asked. “We
only have two automatics. Holmes’
is jammed and will have to be fixed
before it Is serviceable.”
“Pauo has guns and ammunition.”
the mate said. "I’ll get those."
"We aren't expecting any trouble.”
Tom stated. "Rut we aren’t taking
any chances. Re sure those iron eef
doors are 'down on th«f boathouse' 1
astir dark. Those bosh® are our ’legs’
around here, and we cgjp’t afford to
hash.them cripplgd." ’
“*We don’t expect any trouble, but
as long as there Is any possibility
we will play safe." 1 declared. ‘"We
understand Livingston is a long wav
from here, but he might come back
and if he should happen te we’ll be
ready for him!"
“Livingston Is one bad man!”
Pinga said darkly.
We agreed with that sentiment
perfectly.
“Have the schooner In at the pier
and send a couple of boys up to the
palace Just before sundown,” Tom
ordered. "Have the tug rock’ and the
ropes on board."
The mate nodded understandingty.
We hag been In the Islands long
enough to know their customs.
"What about Tino?” I asked Tom
aa we four strolled leisurely back
toward the palace. "Think be has
been in ’Jail’ long, enough?"
"We’B bring him down and throw

turn him loose.” Tom laughed. “I

We were sitting on stones In the
rock garden a little inter when we
saw Holmes come out of the house.
He looked around for a moment and
then diecovering us. came down.
“ratio wants to talk to all of ua,“
he said quietly.'
“How is she feeling now?" lone
nf-kid.
“Much better." Holmes answered.
We went in and grouped ourselves
comfortably around the living room.
“Sorry to have made a scene.” the
girl said simply. I couldn't help
thinking at the time that she cast
well In the role of a princess. There
was something distinctly regal in her
bearing. It was that grace of sim
plicity. The thought occurred to me
that of the thousands of people 1 had
interviewed during my years on vari
ous newspapers the really great
were always the easiest to talk to.
It was the ‘climbers’ who invariably
felt It necessary to try o impress
one with their importance.
One sees a lot of living around a
metropolitan newspaper. and it
makes us pretty tolerant, in spite of
the protective veneer of light cyn
icism. Most of us are too soft un
derneath.
While I soliloquized to myself
mentally. 1 bad been studying the
girl. Her eyea were red still, hut that
smooth composure was perfect again
"Think nothing of it." Pilly had
answered her largely with a flippant
wave of her hand. ’The last few
hours would have kind of upset The
Great Stone Face!”
“Pauo thinks there are some
things we at! should know,” Larry
said breaking the way for her.
“I am going to tell you all 1 know
of the story of that black pearl
which has been so tragically linked,
foe a captury. with our
j#wel known as The SacredHGjV fit

"You know it is really not neces
sary to tell us anything." Tom in
terrupted. "W* don’t want to pry
Into your private affairs—"
Larry looked at Tom: “We are
six now." he said quietly, meaningly.
“I have seen that from the very
first.” Pauo answered Tom. "I ap
preciate it. But I brought you into
this —” she hesitated, turned to me
and continued thoughtfully "and
yet 1 believe that Providence was
before me. I believe that Higher
Power took yon to that book store
in Chicago that afternoon and
brought me four loyal friends, know
ing that I had need of them. There
are some things that just don’t ac
cidently happen!"
“We’B all go right through with
you." lone said quietly with a smile.
"We simply refuse to be left out
now.” Ptlly stated emphatically.
“Why, I think this Is simply too
precious for words? Ooooo!"
"Any questions that you want to
ask, as I go along. I’ll be glad to
answer," Pauo said.

Tom came in: "Usually too right.

her. “You are ’in chapel’ here and

this light persiflage had gone con

the girl’s spirits. Her eyes looked
brighter and ler smile was more
spontaneous. For the moment she
had forgotten that grim figure that
lay in the room yonder.

Pauo’s long tapering fingers were
playing nervously with the edge of
her handkerchief as she spread be
