"Tell them Captain Westhaver of th' Lang Cove Fish Company wanes a few minutes." While a bell boy ran off to deliver the message, Frank was the object for a great deal of astonished scrutiny from the guests lounging around. Captain Ring and some other men were talking and mocking over in ,a corner, end the former stared at Westhaver with eyes open wide in eurprise. "Waal, I be darned!" he ejaculated. "Who's that? What'e th' matter?" enquired one of the others. • "Oh, nawbhinl," replied Ring hast- ily. "I was wouderin? how that feller came here." The page returned! 'in a minute. "Step this way, Oaptain," he said, and Frank was piloted along the corridior to a room in which tevo wellearessed gentlemen were' seated at a table smoking cigars and, looking overeome papers.

They looked, up. when Frank' entered, and surveyed, him with an ex- pression of astonishment- sm their face's, "God day, gentlemea,"-said Frank.

"Pm sorry, Captain, but all de tenders were to be receive by noon. Eet ees now one of de clock, end we have mearly given de contracts -out." Frank dropped dejectedlY into, a chair.
