- ivohhvf.l Adventures ot Tad; OK TTin HAPS AN!) MISHAPS OF A LOST SACREL. A Story for Young and Old. BY FRANK XL CONVERSE, Atrrnoa OR '• Reppes Adams," "Blows Oct zo Ska," ' Paul Gram-ox," Etc. CHARTER 11. Tile end was not long in coining. As the city clocks announced the hour of eight a. m. the train slowly rumbled into the depot, at the foot of Summer street, and came to a full stop with the customary jolt which humps together the passengers who stand expectant in the aide. Then followed the usual rush for the doors, during which Tad crept from his hiding-place unnoticed in the general confusion. Carry ing the sachel in his hand, he boldly elbowed his way through the crowd, and, with a great sigli of relief, found himself standing TAP CREPT FROM HIS HIDING PLACF.. on the platform unquestioned. As he was on the point of turning away Tad suddenly observed a young man whom he remembered having seen at the Broad Street station on the previous evening. A small bluish scar above his right eyebrow had first attracted Tad's attention, while the person in question was standing by the stove, quite near his own seat. At the time, Tad had vaguely wondered whether the man might not have been a soldier, like his own father, and, perhaps, been wounded by a bullet in the same battle. "Yes, sir" thought Tad, closely eye ing the stranger, who, in turn, was sharply scrutinizing those who were leaving the cars, as though watching for some fellow-passenger, "that's tho same identical chap, and, what's more," he added, with growing inter est, "I believe he's the very fellow who hollered 'There he is!' when I popped out from under the cars. I remember him bv his gold-mounted teeth, too!" For this young man, who wore a sort of chronic smile, as though pleased with h'is own thoughts, made a fre quent display of some artistic dentist's handiwork. But the current of Tad's thoughts took a suddenly unexpected turn. " Sure enough," he muttered, audi bly, in answer to on iuwavd suggestion; - " it's tho likeliest thing in the world; why didn't I think of it before?" Acting upon a hasty Impulse, Tad approached the object of his conjecture, and touched his elbow. " Say, mister," he eagerly asked, as the young man started violently, " you hain't seen nothing of a tall party in an ulster coat down to his heels, carrying a blanket done up in a shawl-strap, anywhere's aboard this train, have yon?" A cu rious look of interest—l had almost said exultation—flashed across the stranger's face as his sharp gray eyes, which were set curiously near together, seemed to take in Tad, his shabby clothes and the small sachel, at one comprehensive glauce *'What do yon want to know that for?" was the response, given in a pleasant voice. " So'a to sec whether you knowed or not," guardedly answered Tail, who, for some reason not plain to himself, had already repented his impulsive question of the moment before. The stranger was well dressed and well ap pearing, but Tad's contact with the "seamy side" of life had made him rather distrustful of men and their motives, and with his answer he began to edge away from his new acquaint ance. Yet so far from seeming offend ed at Tad's not overpolitc reply, the young man smiled more agreeably than ever. " See here, my good lad," he said, genially, "that little bag in your hand looks considerably like one that the party you were asking me about—who, " SEE GOOD ULD," SAID MB. JONES. by the way, is a particular friend of mine left on the settee at the Broad/ Street station, Philadelphia, in his hurry to catch this very train that wo have both returned to Boston in, and you," patting Tad pleasantly on the shoulder, "are the honest boy that I saw pick it up and run after the owner to return it to him. But how happens it that you have not found Mr. Richards —my friend's name—yon must have come on with us, and so"— Here Mr. Jones stopped abruptly, and began staring very hard at the few remaining passengers who were running the gauntlet of a throng of penned-up hackmcn, vociferating in different keys. "Why, confound it!" he exclaimed, "here I've been standing talking, and let Richards march off up-town with his head so full oi business that he's forgotten I'm anywhere in existence! But it's all right"—he went on, thrust ing his hand into an inside pocket as he spoke—"for when Richards tele graphed back from Jersey City to the Broad Street station, he offered ten dollars for the return of the papers. 80, if I give you the money and take the bag, it'll be just the same, besides •aving you a long walk up-town, eh?" But Tad cheerfully replied that he dMa't mind the walk, uartkularly as In wanted see what the town was like. "80--.nil's ip.i i - a little place, after nil." he j atr : i.duply remarked, v ith 1 • at thebu-y sir; ids. Mr. .Joe - s warmly eomuii tide I Tad's resolution, as will as tin- -ii flit touch of caution which it inipiicl. "1 see that you've cut your eye leitli, toy hoy." In - said, with an ap proving smile, "and it 's alv :.y > v. 1 11 to l»e 011 one's guard, while there is so much dislmni ty in world. On the whole," continued Ms. .Jones, after an instant's rejection, "your plan is best, so suppose wo have breakfast together at a ri - taurant first of all, and then I'll take vmi up to the office where Rich ards Is." "All right," returned Tad, briefly, with more particular reference to the certainties of something to eat, what ever other uncertainties might he in store for him. And, secretly. Tad felt quite able to take care of himself, even though every tiling was not all right—which lie had no particularly well-defined reasons for doubting. As they walked along together through the busy thoroughfares Mr. Jones chatted agreeably of the men and things encountered on the way. lie hoped Tad would not get cold through the sudden change of climate, as the raw easterly wind swept sharply round the corners of the irregular streets, and he even i ffered to carry the sachel for him, so that Tad might keep his hands warm by putting them in J(is pockets. But Tad replied: Oh, no—he didn't mind the wind; he guessed he could stand it as well as other fellows could that went round the "Hub." Mi. Joi.es, Willi liis perpetual smile, said something about a "capital pun," and led the way into a large eating house, where, at the lunch-counter, Tad speedily began discussing a break fast which was proportioned to his ap petite—thanks to Mr. Jones, who him self scented to do ample justice to the coffee, cakes, beefsteak and fried pota toes which lie had ordered for both. But, hungry though he was, Tad did not forget to occasionally glance from the corner of his eye at the little sachel on the counter, near his plate. lie had fully decided not to let it go out of his keeping for one moment, until it was returned to the proper owner. Curiously enough, "Mr. Jones, who sat next him, occasionally glanced in the same direction from the corner of his eye. Though, after all, this was not so surprising on tlie part of the partner of Richards, the absent-mind ed. He was probably thinking of tiio law-papers contained in the sachel. All at once, Tad, with his month full of buttered roll, looked up, uttered an exclamation, and, slipping from his stool, hurried towVrd the door, through which Mr. Jones—who had thrown down his checls, together with a silver dollar, as he west by the cash ier's desk—was passing. IBs Tiead Wa® bent as if in deep thought, and in his hand was the alligator-skin sachcl. chapter m. Tad, who was stoutrhearted and swift-footed, rathor unexpectedly con fronted Mr. Jones on the uavement in front of the restaurant, just as he was hailing a bus. "I say!" cr-ied Tad, ex citedly; "none of that, you know —give me back my sachel!" Mr. Jones started, stared very hard at Tad, as though ha wove trying to remember where ho had seen him be fore, and then looked at the sachel iu his hand. "Well, I declare!" he ex claimed, in seeming surprise, "I must have taken this up in a fit of abstrac tion and walked out, without thinking of you at all, my lad." Tad shrugged his shoulders. "I want my sachel," he said, stoutly, as a little knot of people began to gather. "Four saeliel," repeated Mr. Jones, with a shadowy sneer; "come, now, that's too" "At your old games again, are you, Edwards?" interrupted a quietly au thoritative voice. Its owner was a small, thin-faced man; in citizen's dress, who, stepping forward as he spoke, gently touched Mr. Jones' shoulder, to that gentleman's visiblo discomfiture. "Is this yours, boy?" continued the speaker, addressing Tad and touching the sachcl with the tip of a small whale bone canc. Tad nodded eagerly. Strictly speak ing, it was not his, but, for obvious reasons, Tad forbore further explana tions. "Hand it over," said tho small man, briefly, to Mr. Jones, who complied so promptly a 9 greatly to astonish Tad, and then, obedient to a gesturo from him of the cane, the fraudulent Jones vanished with considerable celerity round the nearest corner, whilo tho small man walked quietly away. "That's City-Detective Blossom —he's been in our placo lots of times." Tad heard a telegraph messenger-boy in form another, in awe-struck tones, and, after admiringly watching tho small man out of sight, the two scam pered off together. "Strikes me that my friend Jones won't get hold of this same little bag as easy as he thought for," chuckled Tad, unconscious that the gentleman in question, with his hat pulled down over his forehead like tho villain in a play, was watching his movements from a neighboring door-way. But whither 6hould Tad turn his foot steps? Up-town or down-town, or— stop a minute! The sachel must con tain something of more than ordinary value—a fact which the fraudulent Jones had in some way discovered, else why was he so anxious to get posses sion of it? "Chaps like him don't take the chances on an empty bag," soliloquized Tad, with a wise shake df the head, "and, accordin' to-my way of thinking, somebody'll be offering a reward for this bit of property before long." Which reasoning resulted in Tad's investing half his stock of ready cash in the purchase of three daily papers, in whose columns he hoped to find pos sible mention made of tho lost sacheL The purchase itself decided the direc tion of his steps. He knew that along most city wharves wero sheltered and sunny spots, where he could sit down and glance over his papers undis turbed by officious policemen. Having been duly directed by a sharp-voiced newsboy, Tad began mak ing his way wharfward, through a nar row and not particularly invitin" street, known as Lewis Lane. The theory of cause and effect was visible on every hand, in the shape of flourish ing liquor-shops and miserable tene ments. Shabbily-dressed men lounged on every corner, filling the air with oaths and tobacco-smoke, while shrill voiced women gossiped in the door ways and swarms of dirty children pad dled in the gutters. "Come, now—you give us that purp!" said a threatening voice, and Tad looked suddenly round. Avery ragged boy, whose hair was cut close to his bullet head, stood confronting a ueatlv • .iv-.-.-ii mi!, rat in j* younger than liito m 11, v, h i, froiii her appearance, was i-\ idi'titl v a stranger in the ncighbor h I. "Av ye don't hand 'ini over, we'll take "mi away from yez in le.-s'n two shakes," chimed in :t Ililiernian voice, whose owner was a red-haired youth of fi-nrtec.i summers or ikeivalnuits. !n lis dirlj lingers was a string from wliicli dangled an empty oyster-can, ih>tine<l. as Tail at once saw, as ail attachment to the tail of a small and decidedly dirty dog which the gill was hugging tightly against her white apron, very much to its detriment. The young and unprotected female compressed her lips, and, looking ipiite defiantly at her opponents, deigned 110 reply to their unliable intimations. But Tad thought that she also glanced at him rather anxiously, as though fearing he might array himself on the side of the foe. ••Sure, I w'udn't he afeareil of a gurrl. Hob," scornfully insinuated the red-headed, in an undertone, and, thus stimulated, i»i►!> toiiK -a step liipwarit, hut Tad was too ipiiek for him. "Look here!" exclaimed Tail, fee ing his blood tingling clear to his fin ger-tips us lie placed himself directly in front of Bob, the short-haired—"you just leave that girl alone, will you?" And, tucking his snclicl under one arm. Tad threw himself into an attitude both offensive and defensive, which was cal culated to strike terror to the heart of the enemy. "Wasn't a-toucliin' of her—was I, Mickey Dolau?" returned 15ol>, step ping back iu evident alarm. "1 will, though, if she don't give mc my purp!" he added, with a threatening shake of the head, encouraged at the sight of his friend, who, after carefully turning back his tattered shirt-culls, was rapid ly revolving a pair of red lists with a view of paralyzing the bold intruder by his own display of science. "1 don't care," undauntedly replied the small female, speaking for the lirst time; "it's not your dog, and I won't give him up—there, now!" And I re gret to say that Miss Polly Flagg fur ther emphasized her declaration by stamping a small foot 011 the pavement with considerable force. "Don't worry, miss!" said Tad, reas suringly. "They won't dare lav a lin ger on you—or the dog, either—while I'm here; and there's a policeman just coming round the corner, too," the lat ter information intended for the ears of the two warlike youths, having an im mediate effect. Mickey thrust his " I.OOK here!" said tad. hands in his pockets, and walked away, whistling "Mulligan Guards," while Bob, with a parting scowl, quite equally divided between the girl, the dog and Tad himself, ran hastily across the street, and disappeared up the near est alley. "Which way might you be going, miss?" asked Tad, with great polite ness, as Miss Polly Flagg, looking ex tremely relieved, made preparations for departure by cuddling the small dog securely in her arms. "Down to Commercial wharf, where our vessel lies, was the unhesitating answer. "My father is Captain Jetliro Flagg, and I'm Polly Flagg," contin ued Miss Polly, vaguely conscious that some sort ef introduction was the proper thing, under all the circum stances. "J ty name is Tad—l mean Thaddeus —Thorne, and I'm from Philadelphia," said Tad, wishing that his jacket was less threadbare and his shoes were whole, as he glanced at tho simple bnt neat dress of his companion, whose face was completely overshadowed by a deep calico sun-bonn6t shaped like the tilt of a market wagon. "Oh!" returned Polly, and then, in stead of speaking of the weather, or asking Tad how he liked Boston, Polly plunged headlong into a personal ex planation: "The cook wasn't well this morning," she began, "so I had to go to market, for father was up-town. And while I was hurrying back through Lowis Lane, because it was nearer, those horrid boys chnsed the poor little dog that had got lost, and he ran to me so pitiful," said Polly, bending over the small animal in her arms until tt was completely eclipsed by the sun bonnet, "that I caught him up, and said they shouldn't have him. Then you came along, and—l'm ever so much obliged." The abrupt wind-up, though a little Incoherent, was perfectly satisfactory to Tad. "He'll be a nice little dog after he's washed," Tad remarked, patting the pup to cover his embarrassment, for Tad wasn't used to thanks, particularly from girls. "I guess he's a Newfound land," he continued, with a knowing giuuce ui the animal's ears and paws, "and they're first-class water-dogs, you know." Polly nodded, and, after a short pause, looked curiously at the hand some traveling sachel iu Tad's hand. "You don't belong to any of those vessels?" she asked, inquiringly. For they had crossed busy Commercial street, and were walking along the platform on the water front, where the pedestrian looks down upon the bewil dering maze of masts, spars and cord age belonging to the coasting and fish ing craft huddled in the basiii between the two wharves. "No," replied Tad, in a low voice. He could not tell her that he belonged to nothing—to no one, as he mentally expressed it. It would make him seem like a sort of vagrant, youthful tramp. Nor diil he—to Polly's secret disap pointment— account for his possession of the handsome little traveling sachel, with its silver mountings, at which Polly had east admiring glances. "I hope he came by it honestly," thought Poll}', and then was ashamed of the ungenerous self-suggestion. Yet, I am afraid it lingered uncon sciously in her mind, for she had in the flush of her gratitude decided she would ask Tad to take dinner with herself and Captain Flagg, en board the "Mary J." But as they reached the end of Com mercial wharf, where the "Mary J." was moored, Polly luSitated a little. "You can come aboard, if you like," she said; but Tad, # who noticed her al most imperceptible cjkange of manner without Bring iibiu to account fork, rtiouk his I*skl. "Oh, no, miss; I don't look fit," lit* replied, with a glance at liia shabby clothes and patched shoes, that was pa thetic. "I eome down here," he con tinued, simply, "because there wasn'j any other place where I could set down and look over the papers —good-morn- i ing. laiss," and before Tolly could re ply Tad was gone.
