sent
in
sit still nnd suffer a woman te be se
shamefully entreated, llesldes, he had
already rescued her purse; wasn't her
pride of mere Importance te her?
White with discomfort, ii presented
himself before the large-bodied, sleek
headed disturber of his peace.
"I'm right sorry te butt in," he said,
"but I can't let a lady be spoken te
thisnwav hi my hearing." And. ns
the man clattered suddenly te his feet,
(J struck.
They were forcibly tein npnit a fw
second's later by n mob of white-lipped
waiters, q, having satisfied honor,
was readv te defend his action and te
explain himself- he had opened Ills
mouth te de se when nil virtue wns
taken out bv lilm I.J the object of his
fhivnlry. She steed, no whiter than
i,.,c,ri. lur llns ns red. a encer, Italf-
iimuM'd, half-disgusted smile In her
monlej-brewn cjes.
"He simplv for no reason In the world
attacked niy husband," she said
quite clearly and rather loud; 'I think
lie must be out of his mind."
Q wilted. His defense died. He wns,
it would seem, nbeut te be placed jinder
nrrest. A neliccmnn had been sum
mened. It was an intensely uncom
fortable situation nnd the cjes of di
verted, illr-gusted and delighted lunch
ers glittered upon hiin unbearably.
Q's eyes turned from face te face,
net beseechingly, but with n puzzled
sort of despeiatien. He wanted pretty
badly just then te see some of the lieys.
There was Bherty, for instance Shorty
would make quick work of that head
waiter. He wns reminded of a cer
tain incident at the bar of Steny. That
had been 11 tight hole, if you like. He
struggled for tlie philosophy of past
experience. Well, he'd spent mere
than one night In the pen for riotous
sklnrklng. It wouldn't be se bad
when he was once out of Delmonlce'a.
Seeking Shorty, or n reminder of him,
lie saw thnt n face hud emerged from
the crowd, a face with some sort of
different nnd definite intention toward
him. It belonged te a slim, quick-moving
young mnn of assured bearing. He
came te the bead waiter and touched
his arm.
