CHAPTER I Overhearing a con spiracy between her uncle and the captain of his ship to sink the vessel and collect Insurance, Iris Yorke se cretes herself aboard the Adromeda just before It sails for southern seas. Her uncle, who is her guardian and has commanded her to wed old Dick ey Bulnier, thinks she has run away to avoid the distasteful marriage. H Philip Hozier, young and hand some second officer of the Andrmeda, discovers Miss Yorke aboard. Ill liie tells Hozier of the plot to sink the vessel, and he keeps watch on Captain Coke. Mysterious defect In j the steering gear discovered, caus ing the ship to veer from her course. Coke treats the matter lightly.

VI Survivors are hauled up on a cliff by ropes let down by a party of refugees, the leader proving to be Dom Corria de Sylva, deposed president of Brazil.

HILIP, I want to tell something." "Something pleasant?" "No." "Then why tell me?" "Because, unhappily, it must be told. I hope you will forgive me, though I shall never forgive myself. Oh, my dear, my dear, why did we ever meet? And what am I to say? I well, I have promised to marry another man." "Disgraceful!" said Philip. "Philip, dear, this is quite serious," said Iris, momentarily withdrawing her wistful gaze from the faraway line wbere sapphire sea and amber sky met in harmony. Northeastern Brazil Is a favored clime. Bad weath er is there a mere link, as it were, be tween unbroken weeks of brilliant sun shine. At her present pace the Unser Fritz would enter the harbor at Per nambuco on the following morning. Iris, ber troubled face resting on ber hands, her elbows propped on the rails of the poop on the port side, looked at Philip with an intense sadness that was seemingly lost on him. "I really mean what I say," she con tinued in a low voice that vibrated with emotion. "I have given my word written it entered into a most sol emn obligation. Somehow the pros pect of reaching a civilized place to morrow Induces a more ordered state of mind than has been possible since since the Andromeda was lost," "Who la he?" demanded Hozier dark ly. "Coke is married. So is Watts. Dom Corria has other fish to fry than to dream of committing bigamy. Of course I am well aware that you bave been flirting with San Beaavtdes" Please don't make my duty harder for me," pleaded Irta. "Before I met you, before we spoke to each other that first day at Liverpool, I had prom ised to marry Mr. Bulmer. an old friend of my uncle's" Oh he? I am sorry for Mr. Bul mer. but it can't be done," Interrupted Hosier. Philip, you do not understand. I I cared for nobody then, aod my uncle said be was in danger of bankruptcy, and Mr. Bulmer undertook to help him If I would consent" He turned and met ber eyes. There was a tender smile on his lips.

"No, Iris, not if Satan brought every dead verity to aid the living one in His demand. Coke, to whom tact was anathema, chose that unhappy Instant to summon him to take charge of the ship. -We're givln Pernambuco the go-by. It's Macelo for us, quick as we can get there," said Coke. Hosier was In no humor for con ciliatory methods. He turned on his beel snd walked straight to where De Sylva was leaning against the rails. "Captain Coke tells me that we are not making for Pernambuco," be said, meeting the older man's penetrating gase with a glance as firm snd self contained. "That is what we hat arranged." aid Dom Corria. "It does sot seea to bare occurred to you that there is one person on board this ship whose Interests are vastly more important than yours, sen hor." -Meaning Miss Yorker asked the other, who did not require to look twice st this stern Tlsaged man to grasp the futility of any words but ties plainest -Tea."

"You hold my life as forfeit If any mischance befalls Miss Yorke?" "Yes." I accept that. Of course you no longer challenge my direction of affairs?" , "I am no match for you In argu ment, sen hor, but I do want you to believe that 1 shall keep my part of the compact." "I'm goln' to 'ave a nap." Coke an nounced. "Either you or Watts must take 'old. Wlcb is it to ber No need to ask Mr. Hozier any such question." said the sunve Dom Corria. "You can trust him implicitly. He is with us now to the death." Soon after sunset Iris reappeared. She walked on the after deck with San Benavldes and seemed to be listening with great utteution to something he was telling her. When Hozier was relieved and sum moned to a meal in the saloon with Norrie and some of the ship's own officers Iris was nowhere visible. He went straight to her cabin and knocked. Who Is it?" she asked. I. Philip. Will you be on deck In a quarter of an hour?" "No." "But this time I want to tell you something." Philip, dear, I am weary. 1 must rest and I dare not meet you." "Dare not?" "I am afraid of myself. Please leave me." He caught the sob in ber voice, and It unmanned him. He stalked off, rag ing. While off duty be kept strict watch and ward over the gangway In which Iris' cabin was situated. It was useless. She remained hidden. As Coke bad toid Iris she might ex pect to be ashore about 2 o'clock. she waited until half past 1 ere com ing on deck. Despite ber unalterable decision to abide by the hideous com pact entered Into with her uncle and Bulmer, ber first thought now was to find Hozier. Iris was thoroughly wretched and not a little disturbed by the near pros pect, of landing in a foreign country which would probably be plunged into civil war by the mere advent of De Sylva. It need hardly be said that under these circumstances Hozier was the one man In whose company she would feel reasonably safe. But she could not see blm anywhere. At lust she hu..vti oi.e ui! tha Androm eda's men whom she met in a gang way. "Mr. Hozier, miss?" said he, "Oh, he's forrard. right up In the bows, keepln a lookout" This Information added to ber dis tress. She ought not to go to blm. Full well she knew that her presence might distract him from an all Im portant task. So she sat forlornly on the fore hatch, waiting there until he might leave his post The steamer crept on lazily, and Iris fancied the hour must be nearer 5 o'clock than 2 when she beard Ho sier's voice ring out clearly: "Buoy on the port bowl" There was a movement among the dim figures on the bridge. A minute later Hozier cried again: "Buoy on the starboard bow!" She understood then that they were in a marked channel. Already the road was narrowing. Soon they would be ashore. At last Hozier came. He saw ber as be jumped down from the fore castle deck. "Why are you here, Iris?" was all be said. She looked so bowed, so bum bled, that he could not find it in bis heart to reproach ber for having voided blm earlier. I wanted to be near you." she whis pered. "I I am frightened. Philip. I am terrified by the unknown. Some bow on the rock our dangers were measurable; here we shall soon be swallowed up among a whole lot of people." They heard Coke's gruff order to the watcb to clear the falls of the jolly- boat The Unser Frits was going dead slow. On the starboard side were the lights of a large towry but the op posite shore was somber snd vague. "Are we going to land at once in a small boatr said Iris timidly. -I fancy there Is new move on foot A gunboat Is moored half so confidently that we are looked on as local trader." He took her' by the arm with that masterful gentleness that Is mo com forting to woman when danger is rife. They reached the bridge. Some -sailors were lowering a boat as quiet ly ss possible. Dom Corria approached with out stretched band. "Good by. Miss Yorke," be said.; "I sm leaving you for s few hours, not longer. When next we meet I ought to hsve sure grip of the presidential ladder, and I shall climb quickly. Won't you wish me luck?" "1 wlah you all good fortune, Dom Corria," said Iris. "May your plans succeed without bloodshed." "Ah, this Is South America, remem ber. Our conflicts are usually short snd fierce. Au revolr, Mr. nozler. By daybreak we shall be better friends." San Benaridea also bade them fare well with an easy grace not wholly devoid of melodramatic pathos. Tne dandy and the man of rags climbed down a rope ladder, the boat fell away from the ship's side, and the night took them. "Mr. Hosier!" cried Coke. "Yea, sir." "Is all clear forrard to let go an chor?" "Yes, sir." "Give her thirty. You go and see to it will you?" Hozier made off at a run. Iris recalled the last time she heard similar words. She shuddered. Would that placid foresbore blaze out into a roar of artillery and the wornout Unser Fritz, like the wornout Androm eda, stagger and lurch into a watery grave? But the only noise that jarred the peaceful night was the rattle of the cable and winch. The ship fell away a few feet and was held. There was no moving light on the river. Not even a police boat or customs launch had put off. Maceio was asleep. It was quite unprepared for the honor of a presidential visit (To be Continued.) State of Ohio, City of Toledo, ss.
