THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON, D. C., FRIDAY, 14, 1933 e ey 2 —————— L mm— LUXURY LINER ‘—By Gina Kaus— (COPYRIGHT, 1933, BY GINA KAUS) INSTALLMENT XX. ORD, what luck T had yester- day!” Viadimir laughed. “You know, gentlemen, that I get tips? My regular wages are hardly worth mentioning. But the tips are quite decent. And yester- day Mrs. Morris, that ancient dame witR hor poll-parrot voice, gave me $500. An honest. real 500 of her Amer- jean dollars.” He thrust his hand into his trousers’ pocket and pulled out a fat roll of bills. “And you see I am carrying it on my person, the way the really rich Americans do. Mme Clemens was a little annoyed with me. She said 1 couldn't possibly take the money, because Mrs. Morris was crazy and had no idea what she was doing But that was all the more reason for taking it! At any rate, one tiny atom of her fortune would be put to sensible use, It will keep my head above water for two months, until I have finished my _symphony—" : He tossed a roll of bills into the air and caught it again—twice. thrice. Fi- nally th> wind caught it and blew it down among the de k chairs. A pass- ing sailor carelessly stepped on it Viagimir rushed to the rescuc. and re: turned triumphently with his money “Only a hair's breadth.” he cried, 1aughing. “and it would have fallen into the “ocean.” ris irritably shook his head. ou are even crazier than your cragy Mrs. Morris.” Suddenly Thomas rose and took his Jeave. Whether awake or acleep it was always the same. He could hardly for- get. himself for more than a few mo- ments: then he would be reawakened by thoughts of S He imagined she was knocking at his door He ran throush toe corridor rivafl at his cabin X ter..

For a considerable | time he walked up and down, smoking, listening to every sound in the cor ridor. His heart nearly fafled .ever: time he heard steps approaching his door. Finally he took up the news- | fiqper and tried to read. He read head- ines only. “Great Political Speech By Mnssolini” | —“Terrific Mine Disaster in Belgium 115: Dead"—"Eckener Staris Ocean Flight Today . .." Underneath the last heading he read: “In all probability we ®hall see the great silver bird floating above the Columbia betwcen § O tomerrcw.” All these reports left Thomas com- | pletely cold. He threw the paper on the floor and left his cabin. It still lacked an hour to lunch. What was he to do with this cursed hour? Then he found himself in the second class in search of Prof. Kreiglacher, but without caring whether he really dis- covéred him. He finally arrived at the bar and ordered a cognac. He had not looked up Kreigiacher because of yeés- terday’s confession. He had not blamed Krelglacher for his gambilng mania, which had cost him_everything. from any narrow, middle-class point of view. Nevertheless. it signified the end of an illusion. Without any motive of excul- pating himself. but merely because he Was pascionately interested in human obsessions, Krieglacher had told him anecdotes from the lives of other fa- mous scientists. The net re<ult of these stories was that they left Thomas in a state of gloomy disillusionment. ing, not even the gift of great genius. can protect men from possession by evil demons.

His whole bearing was so alive that Thomas in- voluntarily said: “You've picked up marvelously in these last two days.

He had just begun to grind the coffee beans: the water over the spirit lamp had begun to sing softly —when he was suddenly called away. And Stephanson, the beloved of the gods, was left alone with the beautiful young woman, and because he was fin- ,'ishing grinding the coffee with the mill between his knees, and had to pay close attention lest the water boil over, he had the illusion of simple domesticity i such as he had longed for a short while | ago. Decades ago. when he was a bare- foot boy. his mother had sometimes | ked him to grind coffee between his | knees, like this, he suddenly remem:- bered. “If in my youth I had only found the riaht weman——" he said unexpectedly, and broke off “And what would have become of you then.” asked Friederike.
