"So much the better," said mj "friend," whom I had met for the first time fit Liv< rpool street station that evening. He seemed a gentle manly fellow, and had an endless stock of good stories at his command, so that 1 was not sorrv to hear that wc were to be companions for the. rest ot the journey, ami thing my luggage down on one of the lower berths with alacrity. "We're, lucky," he remarked, aR we me^aonf way up on deck; "the boats Sire usually crowded at this time ol the year, and it's difficult to secure a a it ~ CillJlIl II) OuO n hi 11 unvu ?* i There's plenty to see up here, isu'l there? I've been across some dozens of times." I tool; the portly cigar that he offered me, and for a time we wantiered up and down the decks, watching the crowds of passengers, Dutch, English, Hebrew and German, who had just come on board. It was not until-the lights of Harwich were mere pins' heads in the distance that we decided to turn in. We undressed in a very few minutes and, hurling our clothes on the empty ' berths below us, scrambled up aloft. My cabin companion switched oil the electric light. "We shall bo half way up the Mass ' when we wake up to-morrow," he re! marked, wishing me good nfght. "Good night," I answered, turning over on my side. T recollect thinking [ for a "Tew minutes of the jolly holiday i before me; of Mvnho. r Van tier Donu, i the wealthy diamond morclnnt, and I his pretty daughter, whom I hoped soon to make my wife ; of skating and sleighing galore in her company at Amsterdam; oi' the chance of my hosl being as ready \o give his only child to a comparatively poor young Lug lishiuan as he was to invite me to his house; of a do. < u other things eonI nected with my vi-at ; and with pa-1 days, when the branch in llatton ! Garden was being st irted, and tlic ; Vender Denns lived in London. And ' then, suddenly, the rolling of the ves ! sel, the throbbing of the engines, am j the lumes of the strong cigar 1 had | smoked on deck must have overpow ! ercd me, for the next moment 1 { seemed to hear the grutl' voice of the berth steward : j "Now, sir, it's time to get up please. 1 called yon some time ago, and thought you were dressed. Wc'n I JUM lUMiiiua.u. I 1 rubbed lay eyes drowsily an ! darted up, knocking my head sudden | ly against the white e<.;iing ot' tbi ! cabin: and the berth steward, bavin; succeeded in rousing me, hurried ou to attend to his numerous duties. Hov on carth had J managed to oversleej myself so shockingly? A glance n tlio tumbled bed clothes oppositi 1 showed mo that my acquaintance o ! the night before was already up. could feel that the engines wero be I ginning to slow down ; while, throng] the port hole, trees and houses on th bank of the river wero to be seen. (> tlie deck above T could hear the aim 111 ing of many feet, the shouts of th' ! sailors to those on the qunv, th i plumping down of bags and boxo I ready for landing. I was still drowsy, but I managed t j resist the temptation to lie dowi ' again, and began to tbli about for in; clothes 011 the berth below me. Thei suddenly it began to dawn upon m that something was wrong. What oq earth was 1 to do? Th clothes that 1 had lishcd up from l>c low were not the ones that I threw oi tlio berth over night?they had boei i changed for others. By mistake o by dcaigu?yes, it mutt have been by design, for nc such mistake could possibly have bccu made. The man in the other berth had substituted his clothes for miue. When I was finally iu a condition to rush up the gangway?I need hardly say without finishing mv toilet, for 1 was in my (or the other man's) shirt sleeves?I found that most of the other passengers had left tho dook; though a small group of ollicers were standing on the shore side of the vessel, engaged in earnest consultation. mi i i _ _ r _ i_ _ t i. l j. lie iicHub ui u tuupie ui uucii poiicemen, distinguished from the others by their curious, low crowned helmetB, towered above the group, and I at once rushed toward them, thanking tho lucky cliatce that had brought them on the spot. "Have yon got him?" I shouted, no doubt cutting n curious enough figure in the blue shirt and short trousers that my friend of the night before had been considerate enough to lend me. "It looks as if we have," 6aid one of the ship's officers, * glancing at me 1 with a singular expression, that I I could not at all understand, in his eyes. "Blue shirt and light trousers ! ?dark mustache?that's all right, ' isn't it, officer?" he said, in Dutch, to ' one of tho policemen. "But where is he?" I asked, in sur- | prise, looking from one to the other. r "The fellow's taken practically ovory1 thiDg?watch, chain, money, clothes." i "Let's have a look at the other things," said one of the policemen. ! ignoring my question altogether end turning to me ' the steward, who was stumbling up the gaugway under the weight of the clothes that T had left in the cabin. "Blue shirt, light trous- i i ers, dark mustache, ustraclian overcoat, soft felt hat," he muttered, i checking oil the items with a cablcl err am ho hold in his band. "Ami b< i speaks Dutch pretty well, but with b ; foreign accent. Yes, my friend, I'm 1 afraid we shall have to take charge of ; j'ou for the present, in spite of your i clever little ruse. Just put the rest of ' your things on, please, nnd come s j along quietly." . I "Hut what's the meaning of all this?" I asked, in bewilderment, as the handcuffs were clicked on directly j i I had finished dressing. "A man steals j my clothes and my money, and yon I > lock me up for it, aud allow hiin to I escape. Is that the way things are ' usually managed in Holland?" "You'll see how things are managed in Holland where diamond thieves are concerned, quite soon enough, sir," i said the man curtly, evidently nilj noyed at my tone. "Any explanations ' i j or excuses you can give later on; iii . ! the meantime perhaps you will aceom- ] pauy us quietly." "Yes, nnd in the meantime this gentleman is hurrying off as fast as trains - can carry him to some out of the way corner of Europe," I grumbled, but r#*?w r%no wnw wf.ron ilmn nuoioee I ' * I followed by H small crowd of stolid [ ! urchins, wo made our way along the : j tree lined Bompjes to tho police etaj tion. II re a short interview with a licry faced and fierce mus'ached official told me the nature of my suppose1, offence, I but did not in any way improve my 1 prosjiects of release. The object of ' my cabin companion w is now quite j clear Jo me, though all my cxpluna' ' tions with regard to the c'nungo ol ! clothes were smiled at by the official.*, ' who evidently thought them very ; clumsy excuses. 1 was accused of bej ing concerned in a large diamond robbery, and was supposed to have been traveling to Amsteidiun in order to ' make use of my knowledge of precious I stones in disposing of the spoils among j tho "fences" in tho town. The aotual thief was eonlideutial j , clerk to a large linn of diamond nicrI chants iu London; hiseseapu wit ? the bootv had been noticed a few hours ,, j after iiis departure from town, and fail j particulars of his clothing and general f appearance had been cabled to Hotterdam. with instructions to detain him t J on the arrival of the boat. lint my "friend" had foreseen somo diflieulty < | of this kind, anil had laid his plans ac1 ; j cordingly. i Selecting mo as a man about h.s own i height and appearance, lie had man0 need easily enough to change the e clothes in the cabin, the drugged, cigar 1 aiding him in his scheme. Cia ! in my a brown ulster and traveling cap, ho had e | passed off the deck with the other pass ! sengers, witcout attracting any ppecial j attention, and was probably in the act 0 ; of negotiating with Amsterdam traders 1 f at the moment of my examination by : ! the ofllcial at the station. j I'bo fact that 1 had uo diamonds in c my possession at the time of iny arrest meant nothing; they might huvo been < concealed anywhere in the vessel, or even have been thrown overboard, n The steward, to whom I appealed in :i in support of my story, could only r assert that he hud found mc asleep, or ? % feigning sleep, while the other passengers were all preparing to land, and,' of coarse, this told against me. There was only ono iubq iu Holland who cotild help me out of my scrape, and at tbo name of Van der Denn, diamond merchant, of Amsterdam, and Hatton Garden, the officials looked even more suspicions, though they promised thai he should be communicated with "in due course." I was compelled to content myself with this and resign myself to my fate. I suppose I must have spent f-?ur or five hours in confinement and was beJ[inning to wonder whether I was fated o pass the night in like fashion,when the key suddenly turned in the look and a wardon entered, closely fol loweu Dy my irionu, van dcr Denu. "My dear fellow," said the old boy, effusively, rushing toward mo and gripping me by the bauds. "what an adventure to have had, to bo surol But all's well that ends well,and when you have changed yonr clothes wo'll Btart for Amsterdam at once. Chris is getting quite anxious about von. We've got the clothes and the jewelry, and the diamonds, and, what's quite as important, tho man himself. It's the most curious thing 1 ever knew in my life.
