A handsome young soldier offortune a princess of enchant ¬
ing beauty two eccentric advertturers who leave wills disposing
I of the island of Japat < nd itsI ruby mines two heirs who mustmarry within a year to inheritthe property despite the factthat they are already married-a shrewd American lawyer ascheming British solicitor apretty stenographer a princewho is musical and profligate-and a horde of fanatical Mos ¬
lems who will inherit the richesof Japat provided the heirs donot marry each other these arethe leading characters in a ro ¬
mance which for genuine nov ¬
elty thrilling and unusual situ ¬
ations live American humorand the pathos of a great but
I apparently hopeless love hasI rarelysurpassed
been equaled and never
CHAPTER ITilE LATE Mtt SKAGO3
HE death of Taswell Skaggs wasstimulating to say the least Inexpres
I the end of a bale old age by tumblingI aimlessly Into the mouth of a crater on
the Island of Japat somewhere in themysterious south seas The world hadquite Thoroughly forgotten him duringthe twenty odd years Immediately pre ¬
ceding his death It was howevernoticeably worth while to remember-him
t at this particular time He left-a last will and testament that badefair to distress as well as startle agreat many people on both sides of theAtlantic
I In Boston the law firm of BowenHare was puzzling itself beyond reason-in the effort to anticipate and circum-vent
¬
the plans of the firm of BosworthNewues Grapewln London Eo Cwhile on the other side of the AtlanticMessrs Bosworth Newnes Grapewin were blindly struggling to do pre-cisely
¬
the same thing In relation toMessrs Bowen Hare
Without seeking to further involvemyself I shall at once conduct thereader to the nearest of these law of¬
ficesPretty badly tangled 1 declaresaid Mr Hare staring helplessly athis senior partner
Hopelessly agreed Mr Bowenvery much as if he bad at first Intend-ed
¬
to groanBefore them on the table lay the con ¬
tents of a bulky envelope a long andstupendous letter from their Londoncorrespondents and with it a copy ofTaswell Skaggs will Mr Bowen re ¬
cently had been named as Joint execu-tor
¬
of the will together with Sir JohnAllencrombie of London W C onetime neighbor of the late Mr SkaggsA long and exasperating cablegram-had touched somewhat irresolutely-upon the terms of the will besidesnotifying him that one of the heirs re¬
sided in Boston He was instructed-to apprise this young man of his goodfortune
There was one very important per ¬
haps imposing feature in connection-with the old gentlemans willhe wasdecidedly sound of mind and bodywhen it was uttered
When such astute lawyers as BowenHare give up to amazement the
usual forerunner of consternation it Ishigh time to regard tbe case as star¬
tlingReadit again Bowen
The willNo the letter-
Whereupon Mr Bowen again readaloud the letter from BosworthNewnes Grapewin this time slow-ly and speculatively
They seem as much upset by thesituation as we he observed reflec-tively
¬
Extraordinary state of affairs 1
must sayAnd I dont know what to do about-
it I dont even know bow to beginTheyre both married
And not to each otherShes the wife of a Lord knows
what of a lord and bes married to an
f
i uncommonly nne girl they say not¬
withstanding the fact that she haslarger social aspirations than he hasmeans
And If that all Important clause inthe will is not carried out to the let-ter
¬
the whole fortune goes to the bow ¬
wowsPractically the same thing He
calls them natives thats all Itlooks to me as though the bowwowswill get the old mans millions Idont see how anything short of Prov-idence
¬
can alter the situationThank heaven Bowen be names
you as executor not meI shall decline to serve Its an
impossible situation Hare In thefirst place Skaggs was not an Inti-
mate¬
I
friend of mine I met him inConstantinople five years ago and aft¬
erward handled some business for himIn New York He had no right toimpose upon me as if
But why should you hesitate Youhave only to wait for the year to rollby and then turn your troubles over tothe natives Young Browne cantmarry Miss Ruthven inside of a yearsimply because there Is no Miss Ruthveil Shes LadyLadywhats thename
Deppingham-And Browne already has one Mrs
Browne to his credit dont yon seeWell that settles it Id say Its hard-ly
¬
probable that Browne will murder ordivorce his wife nor Is it likely thather ladyship would have the coqrageto dispose of her incumbrance in eitherway on such short notice
But It means millions to them
HareThats their unfortunate lookoutYou are to act as an executor not as amatrimonial agent
But man Its an outrage to give allof It to those wretched islanders Bos¬
worth says that rubies and sapphires-grow there like mushrooms
Bosworth also says that the Island-ers
¬
are thrifty Intelligent and will fightfor their rights There are lawyersamong them he says as well as Jeweldiggers and fishermen
Skaggs and Lady Depplnghamsgrandfather were the only white menwho ever lived there long enough tofind out what the island had stored upcivilization Thats why they bought-It outright but Im hanged if I can seewhy he wants to give it back to thenatives
Perhaps he owes it to them Hedoubtless bought It for a song and I
contrary to all humau belief he mayhave resurrected a conscience Any-how
¬
there remains a chance for theheirs to break the will II
It cant be done Hare It cant bedone Its as clean an instrument asever survived a man
It is by this time safe for the readerto assume that Mr Taswell Skaggs-had been a rich man and thereforeprivileged to be eccentric He came of-
a sound old country family In upperEngland but seems to have married abit above hs station His wife was serv-ing
¬
as governess in the home of a cer-tain
¬
earl when Taswell won her heartand dragged her from the exalted posi-tion
¬
of minding other peoples childrenInto the less conspicuous one of caring-for her own
Their only son was killed by a run-away
¬
horse when be was twenty andtheir daughter became the wife of anAmerican named Browne when shewas scarcely out of her teens It wasthen that Mr Skaggs practically child-less
¬
determined to make himself wife-less
¬
as wellHe magnanimously deeded the uu ¬
entailed farm to his wife turned hissecurities into cash and then set forthupon a voyage of exploration It iscommon history that upon one darkstill night in December he said goodbyforever to the farm and its mistress-but it is doubtful if either of themheard him
To be jolly well even with himMrs Skaggs did a most priggish thing
I She died six months later but beforedoing so she made a will In which sheleft the entire estate to her daughtereffectually depriving the absent hugbaud of any chance to reclaim hisown
Taswell Skaggs was in Shanghaiwhen he heard the news It was on aFriday His informant was that erst-while
¬
friend Jack Wyckholme Nat-urally
¬
Skaggs felt deeply aggrievedwith the fate which permitted him tocapitulate when unconditional surren ¬
der was so close at hand His lan-guage
¬
for one brief quarter of an hourdid more to upset the progress of Chris ¬
tian endeavor In the far east than allthe Idols In the Chinese empire
Theres nawthin in England for meJackie My gals a bloomln foreignerby this time aud shell sell the bleedfarm of course Shes an American-God bless er eart I dare say if Idgo to er and say Id like my farm backagain shed want to fork hover but erusband wouldnt be for that sort ofhextravagance Ed boot me off thehisland
The United States Isnt an islandTazzy explained Mr Wyckholmegulping his brandy and soda
Mr Wyckholme was the second sonof Sir Somebodyorother and had mar-ried
¬
the vicars daughter This puthim into such bad odor with his fam-ily
¬
that he hurried off to the dogsand-a goodly sized menagerie besides If therecords of the inebriates asylum areto be credited His wife after endur ¬
ing him for sixteen years secured adivorce Accepting the world as hishome he ventured forth to visit everynook and cranny of It In course oftime he came upon his old timeneighbor and boyhood friend TaswellSkaggs in the city of Shanghai Nei-
ther¬
of them had een the British islesin two years or more
Ow do you know demanded TaswelL
Havent I been there old chap Ayear or more Its a rotten big placewhere gentlemen aspire to sell glovesand hankerchlers and needlework over
