The next day at noon the chauffeurs from Paris reported for duty, and Ave gleaming French devil wagons steamed off through the crowd In the dlrectloi. of Venice. Through Brescia and Verona and Vicenza they passed, scattering largess of silver in their wake and ^leaving n trail of breathless wonder. Brewster found the pace too fast, and by the time they reached Venice he had a wistful longing to take this radiant country more slowly. "But this is purely a business trip," he thought, "and I can't expect to enjoy it. Some day I'll come back and do it differently. I could spend hours in a gondola if the blamed thing were not more expensive by the trip." It was "there that ho was suddenly recalled t?? his duty from dreams of moonlight on the water by a cable??3L ? gram which demanded $:524 before it could be read.

It was decided, there- 1 fore, that after Athens the Flitter should go south. The yacht had met j them, at Naples after the uutomobile j procession?a kind of triumphal prog- ; re .a?was disbanded in Florence, and | they had taken a hurried survey of i Home. By the middle of July the , party was leaving the heat of Egypt i and (lulling it not half bad.

As September < drew nearer he got into the habit ] of frequently forgetting Swearengen ( Jones until it was too late to retrace ] hi i steps. He was coming to the , ' death struggle," as lie termed it, and , there was something rather terroriz , iug in the fear that "the million might die hard." And so those last days and nights were glorious ones, if one could have looked at them with unbiased, untroubled eyes. But every member , of his party was praying for the day when the Flitter would be well into ] the broad Atlantic aud the worst over. At Alexandria Brewster hail letters to some Englishmen and ill the'few on tertaiuments tb.it be gave succeeded ! once again in fairly outdoing Aladdin. A slieik from ibe interior was e guest at one of Monty's entertainments. He was a burly, hot blooded fellow, with a densely populated ( 4 harem, and he had been iuvitcd more as a curiosity tban ns one to be honored. As he came aboard the Flitter Monty believed the invitation wa> more than justified. Mohammed was superb, and the women of the party made so much of him that it was small wonder that his head was turned, lie fell desperately lu love with Peggy Gray o:i sight, and with ail the coinpoaure of a potentate who lias never been crossed he sent for Brewster the next day and told him to "send her around," and he would marry her. . , Monty's blood boiled furiously for a minute or two, but be was quick to see the wisdom t>f treating the proposition diplomatically. He tried to make it plain to the sheik that Miss Gray -I coulil uot accept the honor he wished to eonfdb upon her, but It was not Mohammed's custom to be denied anya-t. t l. - ??( 1 if ? *-*- * 1 iiiuiK iif HMKi-u iur, vapeciuuy un.\ iiimg feminine. He complacently announced that lie would come aboard that afternoon and talk it over with Peggy. Brewster looked the swarthy gentleman over with unconcealed disgust In his eyes. . The. mere thought of this ugly brute so much as touching the hand of little Peggy Cray tilled lilni wftli horror, and yet there was something laughable In the situation. He could not hide the smile that came with the mind picture of Peggy listening to the avowal of the slielk. The Arab misinterpreted this exhibition of mirth. To him the grin indicated friendship and encouragement. IIo wanted to give Brewster a ring as a pledge of affection, but the American declined the offering and also refused to carry a bag of Jewels to Peggy. "I'll let the old boy come aboard Just to see Peggy look a hole through him," he resolved. "No matter how obnoxf lous It may be, It Isn't every gtrl who can say an oriental potentate has asked her to marry him. If this camel fierder gets disagreeable we may tumble blm Into the sen for a change." With tlio best grace possible he Invited the sheik to come aboard and consult Miss Gray In person. Mohammed was a good bit puzzled over the i Ill 11 7 1 ster's j; ions I i: jC BARR MCUTCHEON 1CHARD GREAVES) ? intimation that it would be necessary 1 for him to plead for anything he had I | expressed a desire to possess. Brew- i ster eotillded the news to Hip Van j Winkle and Subway Smith, who had gone ashore with him, aud the trio i agreed that it would be good sport i to let the royal proposal come as a surprise to Peggy. Van Winkle returned to the yacht at once, but* his companions stayed ashore to do some shopping. When they approached the Flitter later on they observed an unusual commotion on deck. Mohammed had not tarried long after their departure. He gathered his train together, selected a few costly presents that had been returned from the harem and advanced on the boat without delay. The captain of the Flitter stared long and hard at the gayly ha,la?L><ul 1 ? i, ^w.l . 1 ?> .^..vmvu im.nv 1IV.1 illUl IIIUI1 CUIICU lO I Ills first officer. Together they watched the ceremonious approach. A couple of ; irown faced heralds came aboard first j ' lud auuoiuiced the approach of the j I nighty chief. Captain Terry went forvurd to greet the sheik as he came i >ver the side of the ship, hut he was ; washed aside by tlie advance guards, i rlalf a hundred swarthy fellows crowd- i ?d aboard, and then came the sheik, the i lcrsonitlcation of pomp aud pride. "Where is she?" he asked in his naive tongue. The passengers were by :liis time aware of the visitation and [icgan to straggle on deck, filled with | curiosity. "What do you mean by -coming iboard in this manner?" demanded the low irate Captain Terry, shoving a ;ouple of retainers out of his path and i facing the beaming suitor. An interireter took a hand at this juncture, and he doughty captain finally was made :o understand tho object of the visit, tie laughed in the sheik's face and told :he mate to call up a few jackies to lrlve the "tjagoes" off. ltip Van Winile interfered, and peace was restored. ' The cruise had changed Hip into a linplier and far more radiant creature, so t was only natural that he should have shared tho secret with Mary Valentine. lie had told the story of the sheik's demand to her as soon as he :atne aboard, aud she had divulged it to Peggy the instant Kip was out of light. Brewster found the sheik sitting in 3tnte 011 the upper deck impatiently lwuiting the appearance of his charin?r. lie did not know her name, hut he bad tranquilly commanded Hip to proluce all of the women on hoard so that iie might select Peggy from among them. Van Winkle and Bragdon, who now was in the secret, were preparing to march the ladles past the ruler when Monty came up. "Has he seen Peggy?" he asked of Van Winkle. "Not yet. She Is dressing for the oe- , easion." "Well, wait aml?see what happens to him when she gets over the first shock," laughed Monty. I Just then the sheik discovered Peggy, who. nrettv as n ntctnro ?!? *>?> ucnr the strange group. To her amazement, two slaves rushed forward and obstructed her passage long enough to beat their heads on the deck a few times, after which they arose and tendered two magnificent necklaces. She was prepared^for the proposal, but this action disconcerted her. She gasped , and looked about in perplexity. Her friends were Hinillug broadly, aud the sheik had placed his hands over his palpitating heart. "Lothario has a pain," whispered Itip Van Winkle sympathetically, and Brewster laughed. Peggy did not hesitate an instant after heariug the laugh. She walked straight toward the sheik. Iler cheeks were pink, aud her eyes were flashing dangerously. The persistent brown slaves followed with the Jewels, but she ignored them completely. Brave as she intended to be, she could not repress the shudder of repulsion that went over her ns she looked full upon this eager Arab. Graceful and slender, she stood before the burly Mohammed, but his ardor was not cooled bv the nresenee of so many witnesses. With n thud he dropped to ills knees, wabbling for n moment in the successful effort to 1 I Mohammed dropped to his knees. maintain a poetiq equilibrium. Then , ?? I???1 lo began pouring forth volumes of jhattered French, English and Arabic sentiment, accompanied by facial contortions so Intense that they were little less tliau grewsome. "Oh, Joy of the sun supreme, jewel of the ouly eye, hearken to the entreaty of Mohammed." It was more as if be were commanding his troops in battle than pleading for the tender compassion of a ladylove. "I am come for you, queen of the sea and earth and sky. My boats aro here, my camels there, and Mohammed promises you a palace in the sunlit hills if you will but let him bask forever In the glory of your smile." All this was uttered In a mixture of tongues so atrocious that. Subway Smith afterward described It as a salad. The retinue bowed Impressively, and two or three graceless Americans applauded as vigorously as if they were approving the actions of a well drilled comic opera chorus. Sailors were hanging iu the rigging, on the davits and over the deck house roof. "Smile for the gentleman, Feggv." commanded Brewster delightedly. 'Tie wants to take a short bask." "You are very rude, Mr. Brewster," said Peggy, turning upon him coldly. Then to the waiting, expectant sheik, "What is the meaning of this eloquence?" Mohammed looked bewildered for a moment and then turned to the Interpreter, who cleared up the mystery surrounding her English. For the next three or four minutes the air was filled with the "Jewels of Africa," "star," "sunlight," "queen," "heavenly joy," "pearl of the desert" and other things In bad English, worse French and perfect Arabic. He was making promises that could not be redeemed if he lived a thousand years. .In conclusion the gallant sheik drew a long breath, screwed his face into a simpering grin and played his trump card in unmistakable English. It sounded pathetically like "You're a peacli." An indecorous roar went up *rom the white spectators, and a Jacky in the rigging. suddenly thinking of home, piped up with a bar or two from "The Star Spangled Banner." Having accomplished what ho considered to l>e his part of the ceremony, the sheik arose and started toward his launch, coolly motioning for hot- to follow. So far as lio was concerned the matter was closed. But Peggy, her heart thumping like a trip hammer, her eyes full of excitement, Implored him to stop for a moment. "I appreciate this great honor, but 1 have a request to make," she said clearly. Mohammed paused irresolutely and in some irritation. "Here's where the heathen gets it uiuoug the beads," whispered Monty to Mrs. Dan. And he called out, "Captain Perry, detail half a dozen men to pick up the beads that are about to slip from his majesty's neck." CHAPTER XXIV. PEGGY gave the sheik an entrancing smile, followed by a brief glance at the beaming Miss Valentine, who nodded her head Reprovingly. " "Won't you give ine time'"to go below and pack my belongings that they may be sent ashore?" she asked naively. "Thunder!" gasped Monty. "That's no way to turn him down." "What do you mean, Monty Brewster?" she cried, turning upon him with Hashing eyes. "Why, you're encouraging the old guy," he protested, disappointment in every inflection. "And what if I am? Isn't it my affair? I think I am right in suspecting that he has asked me to be his wife. Isn't it my privilege to accept him if I wish?" Brewster's face was a study. lie could not believe that she was in earnest, but there was u ghastly feeling that the joke was being turned on him. The rest of the company stared hard nt the flushed Peggy and breathlessly awaited developments. ? "It won't do to triflo with this chap, Peggy," said Monty, coming quite close to her. "Don't lead him on. Lie might got nasty if he thinks you're making sport of him." "You are quite absurd, Monty," she cried petulantly. "I am not making sport of him." "Well, then, why don't you tell him to go about his business?" "I don't see any beads lying around loose," said Itip tormemlngly. The shclk impatiently said something to the Interpreter, and that worthy repeated It for Peggy's beucflt. "The son of the prophet desires that you be as quick as possible, queen of the world, lie tires of waiting and commands you to come with him at once." Peggy winced, and her eyes shot a briefs look of scorn at the scowling sheik. In an Instant, however, she was Binding agreeably and was turning toward the steps. "Holy mackerel! Where are you going, Peggy?" cried I-otless, the llrst to turn fearful. "To throw some things Into my trunk," she responded airily. "Will you come with lue, Mary?" "Peggy!" cried Brewster angrily. "Tills lias gone far enough." "You should have spoken sooner, Monty," she said quietly. "What are you going to do, Margaret?" cried Mrs. Dan, her eyes wldo with amazement. "I am going to marry the won of the prophet," she replied so decidedly that ; every one gasped. A moment later she was surrounded by a group of excited women, and Captain Perry was calling the Jackles forward In a voice of thunder. Brewster pushed his way to her side, his face as white as death. "This isn't a Joke, Peggy I" he cried. "Go below, and I'll get rid of tlio Bh?ifc," ... ' ... Just then the burly Algerian asserted himself. He did not like the way in which his adored one was beiug handled by the "white dogs," and with two spearmen he rushed up to Brewster, jnbltering angrily. "Stand buck, you Idiot, or I'll punch your head off!" said Brewster, with sudden emphasis. It was not until this moment that Peggy realized that there might be a furious side to the little farce she and Mary had decided to play for the punishuieut of Brewster. Terror suddenly took the place of mirth, and sho clung frantically to Monty's arm. "I was joking, Monty; only joking," she cried. "Oh, what have I done?" "It's my fault," he exclaimed, "but I'll take care of you, never fear." "Stand aside!" roared the sheik threateningly. The situation was ominous. Fright- . enodjjts they were, the women could not flee, but stood as if petrilied. Bailors eagerly swarmed to the deck. "(let off this boat," said Monty, om- inously calm, to the Interpreter, "or we'll pitch jf?u and your whole mob Into the sen." "Kfrep cool! Keep cool!" cried Subway Smith quickly. lie stepped be- . tween Brewster and the angry suitor, < and-that action nlone prevented seri- 1 ous trouble. While he parleyed with the sheik, Mrs. DeMille hurried Peggy ' to a safe place below deck, and they were followed by a flock of shivering , women. Poor Peggy was almost In i tearft, and the piteous glances she s threw at Brewster when he stepped 1 between her nnd the impetuous sheik, < \vli?v lin,l fi.il/.,,. 1 - -1 .??v wtut i?u iw iwiivsv*, nil ut'K uwy Into bis heart ami made bini ready to i fight to tbe death for her. , It. took nearly an hour to convinee l the Algerian that Peggy had mlsun- j derstood him and that American worn- i en were not to he wooed after the At rieaii fashion, lie finally departed with his entire train, thoroughly dis- ) satisfied and in high dudgeon. At ! first he threatened to take her hy : force; then he agreed to glte iter an ( other day in which to make up her mind to go with him peaceably, and 1 again he concluded that a bird in the 1 hand was worth two in the bush. Brewster stood gloomily on the outside of the excited group glowering upou the ugly suitor. Cooler heads had relegated him to this place of se- " curlty during the diplomatic contest. The sheik's threats of vengeance were direful. lie swore by somebody's . board that he would bring 10,000 men to establish his claim hy force. Ilis intense desire to fight for her then and there was quelled bv Captain Perry's detaclnneut of six lusty sailors,, whose big bare fists were shaken vigorously under a few startled noses. . It took all the fight out of the sheik ! and his train. Throe retainers fell in- i to tjio sea while trying to retreat as far as possible from danger. I Holm mined departed with the Irate ] dec-Jara Hon that he would come an- ] h'rid Hint the whole world wouhV tremble at his approach. I>is- , gustod with himself and afraid to < meet the eyes of the other men, Brewster went below in search of Peggy. | lie took time to comfort the anxious | woipeu who crowded about him and then nskeil for Miss (Irnv Kim iii lier stateroom ami would not come , forth. When he knocked at the door , a dismal, troubled voice from within , told hlui to go away. "Come out, Peggy; it's all over," lie called. "Please go away, Monty," she said. "What are you doing in there?" There was a long pause, aud then J came the pitiful little wail, "I am un- j packing, please, sir." That night Brewster entertained on | board the yacht, several resident , French and English acquaintances being the guests of honor. The story of the day was told l>y Mrs. Pan PeMillc, commissioned especially for the duty/ She painted the scene so vividly that the guests laughed with joy over the discomtlture of the sheik. Peggy and Brewster found themselves looking sheepishly at one another now and then in the course of the recital. She purposely had avoided him during the evening, but she had gamely endured the raillery that canie from the rest of the party. If she was a bit pale-it was uui aui|iu?u(i. i>i?w niiii it whs uver the whole affair appalled her more than she could have suspected. When several of the guests of the evening 1 soberly announced that Mohammed was a dangerous man and even an object of worry to the government she felt a strange catch in her throat, and her now mirthless eyes turned instinctively to Brewster, who, it seemed, was the sheik's special object of aversion. The next day she and Monty talked It , over. The penitence of both was beautiful to behold. Each denied the other the privilege of assuming all the blame, and both were so happy that Mohammed was little more than a proposition in their conversation so far as prominence was concerned. But nil day long the harbor was full of fisher boats, and at nightfall they still were lolling about, sinister, restless, mysterious, like purposeless buzzards. And the i dark men on l>onrd were taking up i no fish; neither were they minding the nets tlint lay dry and folded In the bottom of their boats. [TO BE CONTINUED.] Overreached Himself.
