YOUNG When the steamer Orlnoko, on her way from Naples to New York, stopped at Gibraltar a man came aboard with a number of boxes, which were marked "Machinery." He waa a pleasant spoken, hail-fellow-well-met sort of person, who made acquaint ance rapidly wiui uie uuim yi.i?< ugw. He bet freely on the dally ran of the a hip and If he won opened wine to celebrate his good lock and If be lost opened wine to celebrate the winner's luck. In either case be opened wine. Billy Micfcleton, the gentleman referred to, soon became known aa the best fellow on the ship. "What's In all those boxes, Mlckleton, yon brought aboard with you?*% asked a passenger. "When we approach the Atlantic coast you'll all know. I'm going to make an experiment that will attract the attention of the world." "Why not tell us now?" "I'm under contract with a New York newspaper to keep the secret till At- -A -v?rv>v? (fl fA Kqva Hie lust UiULLTCUU luc JIB IV u<?,v the exclusive rights of publication." Nothing so absorbs people as curiosity, and the Orinoko had not long passed Madeira before everybody was talking about Mlckleton and the experiment he was going to make. Some believed it to be a trial trip of a new kind of boat, whose parts were packed in the boxes. Others guessed that he bad invented a light submarine to b? managed by one person. He would put it in the water when the ship was off Sandy Hook and, moving under water, beat her to her dock. A third crowd guessed that Mickleton Intended to be shot out of a mortar from the ship's deck and come down with a patent parachute. When the ship was 500 miles from port Mickleton secured the permission of the captain to remove the contents of the boxes to the upper deck. When I they had been unpacked and carried to the deck Mick'eton set to work and | put together au aeroplane. The passengers gathered about him to watch, some who knew something about oomnlnnoo /Mlri<\lla tO the machin ery put in. But Mickleton waited till they all turned in for the night to do, this work, and when they came on; deck in the morning they found the; aeroplane concealed under a canvas, cover. The captain kindly ordered the ship's carpenter to make a passage for the machine by taking down the stern rails i ?nd otherwise render a start possible. When al' these things were done and the passengers had nothing to do but wait they crowded around the aeronaut and plied him with questions. MIs it a new power you're going to test?", "Are you going in ahead of the ship or going to make a transatlantic flight?n Is it to break a record for speed or for height or for distance?" Mickleton said that it grieved him not to be able to satisfy them, Dut tnat he was dependent on the newspaper with which he had made his contract 'or funds to carry out his experiment ind if he let out anything he would forfeit a small fortune. Whep a man became too persistent Billy opened a bottle of wine. Fire island was sighted at 0 o'clock in the morning. At 10 Mickleton was ready for his flight. The last article be put on bis machine was a small box. He oi>enod it and showed provisions. From the size of the box It might contain food and drink to last a week. It was evident from this that the flight was to be a long one. and it was tl^e j jpinion of most of the passengers that ; Mickleton was intending to make : straight across the Atlantic back to ! Gibraltar. If necessary he would have j stopping points at the Azores and Ma| deira. , Just before starting Mickleton went to the wireless office and sent a mes sage in cipher to a New York newsi paper. If any one had any doubts as to the truthfulness of the ueronaut's ; excuses for not telling his intention this removed them. Leaving the wireless j office. he returned to his aeroplane, I went under the canvas, made a final. Inspection of the parts, then, removing] (he cover, got aboard. Sailors on a run pushed him along the deck; he caught the air. hardly striking the water surface, then rose gradually. The ship was steaming westward along the Long Island coast. The aeroplane. rising, turned toward the land. , passed over the eastern end of the island and gradually passed out of j j sight. The Orinoko reached Sandy] Hook about noon, but, being delayed] j at quarantine, was not docked till the; j next morning. Every passenger was! | on deck and eager to read the account! J of the aeroplane flight, the start of] j ! which he had witnessed. Not a single] \ newspaper mentioned it. Mr. Mickleton passed out of the! -V ! minds of the passengers of the Orb, A noko as he had passed out of their sight Jl over Montauk Point and was for-, ! gotten. But the time came when they ] j rend the newspaper accoant, which ( ] was a very different one from what: ; they had been told about. It reported how the slickest smuggler working be-, tween Europe and America, who had ! long evaded customs officers, had been, ; caught red handed. Among his smuggling devices the article gave an ac-' count of his getting a million dollars' worth of diamonds in free of duty by means of an aeroplane from the deck, of a liner.
