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.
