••Well, there was ono tiling which very soon struck me, and that was that soldiers rased always to lose and tho civilians to win. Mind, I don't say that there was anything unfair, but so it was. These prison chaps had done little else than play cnnls ever since they had been at the A11(tamans, and they knew each other's gamo to a point, while the others just played to PASS the time and threw their cards doivn anyhow. Night after niyht the soldiers fcot u]) poorer men, and the poorer 'thry got the more keen they were to play. 3'I.s. nr Sholto was tho hardest hit. Ho utod to pay in notes and gold at first, but s-ixm it came to notes of hand and for big i-tuiis. He sometimes would win for a f:'w just to give him heart, and then the 3i:ek would set in against him worse than evvr. All day lie would wander about as ?•]/'. *k as ihtiiidcr, and he took to drinking a ikvil more than was good for him. "One night ho lost even more heavily Jit/4.11 usual. I was sitting in my hut when 5-.!'and Captain Morstan came stumbling aking oil their way to their quartern. They •v.'i :v besom friends, those two, ar.d never "F^r apart.

"I wanted to ask you, sir,' said I, 'who ".'•3s She proper person to whom hidden treasure should be handed over.

"Well, the matter ended by a second

matter

eiuJeO

My a

meeting, at which Mohammed Singh, Abdullah Khan and Uost Akhar were all present. We talked the matter over again, and at la*t we came to an arrangement. We were to provide both the officers with charts of the part of the Agra fort, and mark the place in the wall where the treasure was hid. Major Sholto was to go to India to test our story. If he found tho box, lie was to leave it there, to send out a small yacht provisioned for a voyage, which was to lie off Rutland island and to which we were to make our way, and finally to return to his duties. Captain Morstan was then to apply for leave of absencc, to meet us at Agra, and there wc were to have a final division of tho treasure, he taking the major's share as well as his own. All this we scaled by the most solemn oaths that the mind could think or tho lips utter. I sat up all night with paper and ink, and by the morning I had tho two charts all roady, signed with the sign of the four—that is, of Abdullah, Akbar, Mohammed and myself. "Well, gentlemen, I weary you with my long story, *md I know that my friend Mr. Jcnes is impatient to get me safely stowed in chokey. I'll make it as short as I can. The villain Sholto went off to India, but he never came back again. Captain Morstan showed me his name among a list of passengers in one of the mailboats very shortly afterward. His uncle had died, leaving him fortune, and he had left the army, yet he could stoop to treat live men as he had treated us. -Morstan went over to Agra shortly afterward and found, as we expected, that the treasure was indeed gone. The scoundrel had stolen it all without carrying out one of the conditions 011 which we had sold him the secret. From that day I lived only for vengeance. I thought of it by day, and I nursed it by night. It became an overpowering, absorbing passion with me. I cared nothing for the law, nothing for the gallows. To e.-cape, to track down Sholto, to have niv hand upon his throat—that was my one thought. Even the Agra treasure had come to be a smaller thing in my mind than

rhe

slaying of Sholto.

"Well, 1 have set my mind on many things in this life and never one which I did not carry out, but it was weary years before my time came I have told you that I had picked up something of medicine. One day when Dr. Somerton was down with a fevor a little Andaman islander was picked up by a convict gang in the woods. He was sick to death and had gone to a lonely place to die. I took him in hand, though he was as venomous as a young snake, and after a couple of months I got him all righivhnd able to walk. He took a kind of fancy to me then and would hardly go back to his woods, but was always hanging about my hut. I learned a little of his lingo from him, and this made him all tho fonder of me. "Tonga—-for that was his name—was a fine boatman and owned a big, roomy canoo of his own. When I found that he

was devoted to me and would do anything to serve me, I saw my chance of escape. I talked it over with him. He was to bring his boat round on a certain night to an old wharf which was never guarded, and there he was to pick me up. I gave him directions to have several gourds of water and a lot of yams, cocoanuts and sweet potatoes. "He was stanch and true, was little Tonga. No man ever had a more faithful mate. At the night named he had his boat at the wharf. As it chanced, however, there was one of tho convict guard down there—a vile Pathan, who had never missed a chance of insulting and injuring me. I had always vowed vengeance, and now I had my chance. It was as if fatt 1 had placed him in my way that I might pay my debt before I left tho island. lie stood on tin bank with his back to me and his carbine 011 his shoulder. I looked about, for a stone to beat out his brains wirh. but none could I see. 1 hen a queer thought came into my head and showed me where I could lay my hand 011 a weapon. I sat down in the darkness and unstrapped my wooden leg. With three long hops I was on him. lie i' put his carbine to his shoulder, but I struck him full and knocked the whole front of his skull in. You can see the split in the wood now where I hit him. We both went, !wn together, for I could not keep my balance, but when I got up I found him still lying quiet enough. I made for the boat, and in an hour we wero well out at sea. Tonga had brought all his earthly possessions with him, his arms and his gods. Among other tilings I10 hail a long bamboo spear and some Andaman cocoa nut matting, with which I made a sort of a sail. For ten days wo were beating about, trusting to luck, and 011 tlie eleventh we wero picked up by a trader which was going from Singapore to Jiddah with a cargo of Malay pilgrims. They were a rum crowd, ami Tonga and I soon managed to settle down among them, They had one very good quality—they let you alone and asked no questions. I ''Well, if I were to tell you all the adventures that my little chum and I went through, you would not thank me, for I would have you here until the sun was shinirg. Here and there wc drifted about tho world, something always turning up I to keep us from London. All this time, however, I never lost sight of my purpose. I would dream of Sholto at night. A hundred times I have killed him in my sleep. At last, however, some three or four years ago, we found ourselves in England. Iliad 110 great difficulty in finding where Sholto lived, and I set to work to discover whether he had realized the treasure or if he still had it. I made friends with some one who could help mo —I name no names, fur 1 don't want to get any one else in a hole—and I soon found that he still had the jewels. Then I tried to get at him in many ways, but ho was pretty sly andOiad always two prizefighters, besides his'sons and his khitmutgar, 011 guard over hi in.

If the sky is not overcast an eclipse fjives nearly two hours' warning by the grsidniil encroachment of the earth's phmlow 011 the moon's disk, but 011 Sunday night this warning will he given to places east of the Mississippi after people have set out for church or are engaged in evening' service.

The accompanying" illustrations show four positions which the moon will fake AVit'll respect to the earth's shadow. These urn exactly an hour apart. The. first shows the moon after it has passed, entirely into the partial shadow ami with the eastern edge just entering the total shadow. Ail hour later the moon will be entirely covered by the black shadow of the earth and perhaps absolutely invisiole, but whether it will invisible or can be faintly discerned will depend somewhat on the condition of the earth's atmosphere.

The last position shown, which is three, hours after the first, is when the 1110011 has emerged partly from the total shadow, but is still veiled in the partial one. These successive phenomena are to be seen, provided thef'e are 110 clouds, at exactly the same instant of time from all parts of the United States. However, owing to the differences in local and standard time as kept in various places, the eclipse will seem to begin at earlier hours in the west than in the east.

SOIL STEAMER TANK, EXPLODES. Two IW«M'l iHy Woiinricil uii the V(.',ssel S5it(!ly Ilanaijcil.

S\.\" "FRANCISCO, March !.—A terrific explosion 011 the tank of tho steamer Bawnmoore, lying at the Arctic oil Wiiks dock at tho Portroro, caused great excitement in that section of that city yesterday evening. Two men wero probably bruised and burned, receiving mortal injuries and the vessel was badly strained. Everything" on board was thrown into the greatest eonfnsion.

The Bawnmoore recently arrived from Peru with a cargo of crude petroiei!i?i consigned to J. VV. Crrace & Company. The cargo having been discharged, two workmen carrying a candle went in the tanks this afternoon to clean them our. Instantly the explosion came, shaking the steamer from stem to stern, twisting the tanks out of position and smashing the. surrounding woodwork. The two workmen were carried out in an insensible condition.

NEW YOUK. March 9.—Oscar Roth, formerly a nurse in Mount Sinai hospital, committed suicide Friday. He was su fferi ug from an incurable disease, and it is evident that he killed himself in order that those who have been earing for him might receive his life insurance. He left a will dated early in December last, which reads as follows: "I bequeath all my belongings to Harry and Katie Harris for my board and medical treatment, and I am to receive $5 a week for spending money. They are to take care of me for four months. If my death occurs within four months my body is to be cremated, and they are to pay all expenses."

It is thought that Roth contemplated suicide when he wrote this will.

WHAT GOD HAS DONE.

MAN DE RIGHTEOUS BY THE GRACE OF CHRIST.

Kcv. T.l:'_!ison C. I'eters I'readies "ritci ical Theology I',.r People—Ilefuse Cod's (jiffs and 011 aimot Attain Lieaven.

AVisiiiti^ ni!(l Choosing.

Christ bore human sin as a representative of man before the divine law—a sacrifice for sin, a substitute for man and a satisfaction to law. Christ, the Lord himself, suffered 011 account of the broken law in order that the majesty of the law might be honored to tho full. Some time ago one of our judges was called upon to try a prisoner who had been his companion in early youth. It was a crime for which tho penalty was a heavy fine. The judge did not diminish the line, but fined the prisoner to tho full. Some who knew Informer relation to tho offender thought him somewhat unkind thus to carry out the law, while others praised his impartiality. All wero surprised when the judgo quitted the bench and himself paid every farthing of the penalty, rlo had shown his respect for the law and his good will to the man who had broken it. Ho exacted tho penaltj", but paid it himself. That is just what God has done in tho person of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, and for the sake of Christ's righteousness wo shall bo treated as righteous, being made righteous by his grace. Some years ago a man of high standing married an Indian girl in one of our Western cities, for ho saw in her the capabilities of noblo womanhood. She was educated and subse'[iienf !y moved in tho highest circles of society, for tho fake of her husbaud, who was held in the highest esteem. Tho doctrine that God treats sinners with favor for tho sake of his Son finds many analogies even in human society.

But must I not wait till I am drawn? Wait for him who lias all these years been waiting for yon? "Behold, I stand at the door and knock, cries the patient Saviour. It is he who is seeking you and waiting for yon, and not you for him. Why, he has been trying to bring you to him all these years, and now, instead of waiting to be "drawn" to the Father, stop resisting and come. "I am unable to come. I am a sinner. That is just the reason why you are to come to Christ. You are not to stop on account of your sins, but seek tho Lord because of them. Suppose tho man with a withered hand, whom Christ met in the temple, when Christ bade him "stretch it forth," had cried: "Stretch forth my hand? How can I? It is withered!" Of course his hand would never have been healed. But when I10 heard the command he obeyed. Tho same being who bade him act gave him streugth to act. That is just what you have to do. Youliear the command. Obey it. "Seek yo tho Lord." Why, is not God everywhere? Yes. Then ho needs no seeking, for in him we live and movo and havo our being. This text does not so much refer as to whero God is as to where you arc. You havo turned your back on him, you havo forgotten him, and so, becauso lie has not been in your thoughts, you have, in a spiritual sense, lost the Lord. You are to realize that there is a God. Your thought, love and desire are to come toward him, and thus you will find God.

There are many who, with a burdened heart, say, "I wish I were a Christian!" But all yor.r wishing will never make you one. There is a great difference between wishing to be ono and choosing to bt* one. A wish is not of itself a purpose. You may wisJi to go to Washing!on, but unless you act accordingly, mi less you make your preparations, go to the depot and get your ticket, and instead of silting down in the depot and wishing yourself there get aboard tho train, you will never get there. So if yon want to go to the capital of the skies you must got aboard tho liner of Christian influences that will bear you there.

When I was a boy, my mother once provided a singing school teacher and books, and though I had an ear and a voice I would not go to school and learn music, and now that I can neither sing nor play whose fault is it that I was never allowed to join a choir? Did the loader shut me out? I shut myself out. So, if I refuse God's gifts and shut myself out of heaven, I will luwo to blame myself, just as I now blame myself for my ignorance of music.

Pavul said before tho council, "I havo lived heforo God in all good conscience until this day." Ho thus plainly demonstrates from his own early experience that coiiscieiico is by 110 means an infallible guide. Ho served God in good conscience

11c

only when he was St. Paul

the apostle, but when he was Saul tho persecutor. Tho sundial is an ingenious contrivance, but of 110 usowhen tho sun does not shine. And so with a man's conscience. It is of uso only when tho sun of righteousness shines upon it.

Christ's of Ilomc.

Christ never meant that homo was to bo merely a refectory and dormitory, but a placo to live. If you would not have your children, lost to you in after life, make home happy, to them when they are young. Let it be tl^Q placo of sparkling joy and innocent amusement, and thus counteract the fashionablo tendency of our time to abandon tho homo and seek pleasuro abroad. Tho rcasou that sf) many children make every effort possible to get away from homo at night is lack of entertainment at home. Don't reserve all your social charms for friends and strangers abroad and koep dullness for homo consumption.

\aliiG of Christian Homes. What might wo not hopo for this world if wo could fill it with happy Christian homes, supported by truo men and presided over by loving wonrn, where every ono conspired to adorn tho home with all the light tho mind can yield and all the love the heart can furnish.
