SYNOPSIS. The Escapade opens, not In the romance preceding the marriage of Ellen Slocum, a Puritan miss, and Lord Carrington of England, but in their life after settling in England. The scene is placed, just following the revolution, in Carrington castle in England. The Carringtons, *“* r a house party, engaged in a family tilt, caused by jealousy. Lady Carrington agreed to cut cards with Lord Strathgate, whose attentions to Ellen had become a sore point with Carrington. The loss of SIOO,OOO failed to perturb her, and he- husband then cut for his wife’s I. O. L. and his honor. Carrington winning. Additional attentions of Lord Carrington to Lady Cecily and Lord Strathgate to Lady Carrington compelled the latter to vow that she would leave the castle. Preparing to flee. Lady Carrington and her chum Deborah, an American girl, met Lord Strathgate at two a. m., he agreeing to see them safely away. He attempted to take her to his castle, but She left him stunned In the road when the carriage met with an accident. She ana Debbie then struck out for Portsmouth, where she intended to sail for America. Hearing news of Ellen’s flight, Lords Carrington and Seton set out in pursuit. Seton rented a fast vessel and started in pursuit. Strathgate, bleeding from fall, dashed on to Portsmouth, for which Carrington, Ellen and Seton were •Iso headed by different routes. Strathgate arrived in Portsmouth in advance of the others, finding that Ellen’s ship had sailed before her. Strath gate and Carrington each hired a small yacht to pursue the wrong vessel, upon which each supposed Ellen had sailed. Seton overtook the fugitives near Portsmouth, but his craft ran aground, just as capture was Imminent. Ellen won the chase by boarding American vessel and foiling her pursuers—Strathgate, Seton and Carrington. Carrington and Strathgate, thrown together by former’s wrecking of latter’s vessel, engaged in an impromptu duel, neither being hurt. A war vessel, commanded by an admiral friend of Seton, then started out in pursuit of the women fugitives, Seton confessing love for Debbie. CHAPTER XV.—Continued. "For Bordeaux and then to Boston." “Take me aboard of you.”

“We’re not shorthanded,” replied the other. “I mean as a passenger.” “Can you pay your passage?” came from the ship. For reply Ellen held up a well-filled parse. The man nodded to her, disappeared inboard, and presently came back followed by an older sailor. “Who be ye?” cried the older man, apparently the captain of the ship. “My name’s Carrington,” answered Ellen. “Are ye fugitives from justice?” asked the captain. "No, no, I swear we’re not.” “Be ye a runaway couple?” “Yes, yes,” answered Ellen, grasping at the suggestion presented by the captain’s misconception of the situation. And Indeed they were a runaway couple, though not exactly of the kind the captain meant. "And them boats yonder, are they chasin’ you?” "They are,” cried Ellen. “Won’t you take us aboard?” “Well, I don’t know,” said the captain, slowly. "I guess so. I don’t want to heave to, them boats to port Is chasin’ hard.” “If you’ll make a half-board, I’ll run the boat alongside of you and we'll manage to get aboard.” “All right,” said the captain. He spoke to the helmsman and a moment after the sails slatted in the wind, the big ship swung up toward the breeze and ranged ahead, her way clearly checked. Ellen acted promptly. Before the big ship swung up into the w'nd she had run her little boat alongside. She dropped sail, ran forward and took a turn with a painter across the forechains. She let the boat drift aft until It came abreast the battens on the side, leading up the gangway. Up this she drove Debbie, reluctant, protesting, frightened out of her wits. Indeed it was a hard climb for a girl unused to such performances and encumbered by her skirts. Shoved by Ellen, however, the girl clambered up

until hands reached through the gangway dragged her to safety. Ellen followed quickly after her. “And your boat, what of her?” asked the captain. “She’s no use to us any longer,” answered Ellen, enduring the keen scrutiny of the old sailor as best she might. “You may have her, captain." “Here, Bud,” said the captain to an old sailor, “jes’ drop down the forechains and make that boat fast. We'll swing her up on deck after awhile, if she’s worth it. Now, sir—” he looked harder than ever at Ellen, “what did you say your name was?” "Carrington,” answered the countess thoughtlessly, “Ellen —” “Ellen!” exclaimed the captain, “Gee Whiliklns! I thought so. And this young lady?” he turned to Deborah. “My name’s Slocum, Deborah Sloeum of Massachusetts, of Boston. I should like to get ashore.” “Young ladies,” said the captain—and at that word Ellen knew that, all her hopes of concealment were blasted —“what’s the cause of this, I don't know. Why you’re masqueradin’ in boy’s clothes, ma’am, I can't tell. I take it that the other is a female in spite of her woman’s riggin’.” "Yes, you may be sure of that,” whimpered Deborah with difficulty repressing a strong inclination io cry. “Captain,” began Ellen, resolutely, “you’ve guessed the truth. lam a woman.” "Lord love you; you didn’t expect to disguise it, did you?” said the captain, laughing grimly. “I never thought anything about it,” aaid Ellen, “I was so anxious to get away.” “To get away from whom? I thought yon was a lover and his lass.” "We’re not.” cried Debbie, indignantly; “she's trying to escape from her husband, and I—” “An’ you, miss?” “I’m not trying to escape from anybody. T want to go ashore! Won’t you put me ashore, captain?” “Hardly,” said the captain, dryly. “You've come aboard and I guess you’ll have to stay unless I heave to

and wait for one of them other boats.” "What is your name?” asked Ellen. “Tuggles,” said the captain, “Capt. Jeremiah Tuggles, at your service” “Capt. Tuggles,” said Ellen, "did you ever hear of Capt. William Penn Slocum of Philadelphia?” “That I have, miss.” “He was my father.” “Oho!” said the captain. "Are you the Pennsylvania girl that married the English lord?” "I am.” “And is the English lord in one of them boats out yonder?” “He is.” "An' you’re tryin’ to git away from him?” "Indeed, I am. He has used me cruelly.” "Well,” said the captain, nodding thoughtfully as if he understood it all, "for the honor of America I’ll do all I can to help you. An’ you, miss?” turning to Debbie. "I’m not trying to get away from any English lord,” answered Debbie, "but there’s a gentleman—” She stopped. “Well, I’m very son-}’ for you. miss,” said Capt. Tuggles, "but the best I can do is to take you with your friend. You can get off at Bordeaux and go where you please, meanwhile the ship is yours.” "Will those boats catch us, captain?” queried Ellen, stepping slowly across the deck to the landward side. “Not if I don’t want ’em to,” said Tuggles, grimly. "Mr. Manthy,” he

added, turning to a aurly-looking mate who was pacing the quarterdeck, "the breeze is freshenin', better give her more sail. An’ we’ve had enough of southin’, better set our course for the east’ard until we get well up the channel. You’re safe, miss. There ain’t no small boat in England that can overhaul Jeremiah Tuggles an’ the Flying Star, an’ there ain’t many ships can do it, either.” “Are you sure, captain?” “Sartin,” said the captain. Ellen did a strange thing. She ran across the deck to the gangway, leaned far over it, lifted her hat and waved it three or four times at the boats vainly pursuing. Then not waiting for a return of her salute, she rejoined the captain. "if you please, captain,” she said, “we’d like to have something to eat and a place to sleep. We’ve had nothing but hard tack and water since yesterday morning, and what sleep we got we had to take in the cutter.” “You shall have everything the ship affords,” said Capt. Tuggles, a worthy seaman, “there's only one thing within reason that I can’t supply-” “And what is that?” "Female toggery.” answered the captain. “I don’t need that. I like these clothes,” returned the girl, boldly. The captain himself took the two below. He called his cabin boy and , set before them a prodigious quantity of substantial fare. They were both hungry enough to have eaten ruder provision with a hearty zest. ; When their appetite was stayed, the captain showed them to a cabin with two berths in it. Both women were |so tired that recriminations which ■ I trembled in the air were deferred uni । til they had taken needed rest. Dressed as they were, each crawled into her respective berth and soon was - sound asleep. - It was dark before either awoke, j What disturbed her, Ellen could not . j tell, but she suddenly found herself 5 । sitting up in her berth listening to a > I faint hail that came down the wind

and through the open *rr port into th« cabin. A voice said gruffly: “This is his majesty’s shlp-of-the-llne Britannia. Heave to and I’ll send a boat aboard.” “The Britannia!” exclaimed Ellen under her breath, “Admiral Kephard’s flagship!” What, could it. mean? She rose to her feet and stepped to the port hole. It was pitch dark outside. She could see nothing. The moon had not yet risen. Over her head Capt. Tuggles was replying. "What do you want with me?" he cried, roughly. , “You’ll find out,” answered a voice from the darkness, "when we send a ’ boat aboard.” A moment after Ellen caught a glimpse of the running light of a large ship slowly closing upon the 1 Flying Star. Other lights gleamed from port holes here and there, bringing the huge liner in fair view’. “This is the high seas,” answered ‘ Capt. Tuggles, with great spirit. "I’m a peaceful merchantman from the United States, and I’m damned if I’ll , heave to for anybody.” Brave Capt. Tuggles! Ellen thrilled in her soul, but she knew that the game was up. No merchantman could brave a war vessel, and one flying an I admiral’s flag at that, with Impunity. The next Instant a gun flashed from the side of the ship-of-the-line and a deep boom rolled across the black water. "If you don’t heave to,” cried the voice from the other ship, "the next shot’ll go into you.” To hesitate longer was madness. El- ' len could hear Capt. Tuggles dash his trumpet to the deck and the next minute his hoarse voice oiddlng the watch swing the main yard. The ship slowly shot up into the wind and presently lay still. On the ship-of-the-line Ellen could hear the shrill whistling of pipes and hoarse voices calling aw r ay the crew of the cutter. Unless she acted immediately she was lost. The ship-of-the-line could have overhauled the merchantman only for her. She turned from the porthole to find Deborah, who had been awakened by

1 the cannon shot, standing half daze 4 j at her side. "Debbie.” she cried, “I’ve changed my mind.” “What do you mean?” asked Deborah. “I’m going back to Portsmouth.” "Well, I’m glad you’ve come to your j senses at last.” “Yes,” said Lady Ellen, “there’s a ship out there which has just ordered Capt. Tuggles to heave to, to stop his ship, that is. We must escape her.” “Whose ship is it?” “I don’t know. It may be a Frenchman, or a pirate, or— At any rate, our ■ only chance is to get away while they are busy. They’ll never notice us.” I “How will you do it?” asked Deborah. “Ask Capt. Tuggles to set you ashore?” "Never,” said Ellen. j Seizing Debbie by the hand, she left the room, locking the door behind her and slipping the key in her pocket. Then she stepped into the cabin. Fortunately it was empty. There was a dim light burning from a lantern hanging at the bulkhead. Ellen took it down and opened the door of what she deemed from her experience was the captain's room, and found she had made a correct guess. She took the precaution to take the key out of the door, insert it on the inside of the lock and turn it. The captain’s room extended across the after part of the ship. The stern windows were large and she and Deborah could easily pass through them. Her one hope was that, her boat had not been abandoned. Sure enough, there it was trailing astern, and fortunately on the side opposite to that on which the line-of-battle ship lay. The Britannia hat! drifted ahead and had been hove to off the starboard bow of the Flying Star. Ellen's boat was drifting astern off the port quarter. 1 (TO BE CONTINUED.)
