Will you tell him that I am very hungry and that I have not been relieved at the, proper time? I have been waiting half an nour or more. "There," cried the captain, squeezing ji-isies arm; "that comes of using so many unnecessary explanations. . ought to have adopted the recognized uacK tar method and just grabbed you round the waist without ceremony. I wonder where Boyle is. He and Christobal take the first watch, and it must be two bells or later. I will bunt them up. Goodby, sweetheart; meet you at supper in ten minutes." It was a strange and peculiar fact mat lioyle had cornered Christobal in the salon and had Insisted on telling him various remarkable anecdotes con cerning the one legged skipper of the lower or the Ocean brig. It was still more odd that when Christobal yielded to unwonted and melancholy silence after learning from Suarez that the senor captain had been talkinsr to th senorita for a very long time on the promenade deck Boyle should feel Inclined to sing. And then, with a chilling inspiration, Christobal knew why the chief officer tiad caused him to miss the hour for relieving the watch. Boyle had seen those two together and had planned to leave them undisturbed! The Spaniard was a dignified man. He had Inherited from his English mother a saving sense of humor. It was Intolerable that the pleasant relations existing between the few survivors on board the Kansas should be disturbed by reason of any failure on his part to acquiesce in Elsie's right to bestow her affections where she listed. He wondered if the girl had come on deck after supper. Her habit was to retire early, as she rose soon after the sun. He had seen her for a moment only in passing out of the salon, and there was a suspicious brightness in her eyes for which solicitude pn the dog's behalf would hardly account. Why not put, his fortunes to the test that night and have done with It? Yes; that was the right course. So it was on the card3 that Elsie would be the amazed recipient of two Practical Fashions '.AD1ES' ONE-BUTTON CUTAWAY COAT. V3 Paris Pattern No. 2293, All Seams Allowed.

Christobal had entered the chart house with the fixgd intenlLpf. warning Boyle that he was going below for a moment to ask Miss Maxwell to come on deck when a hurried step on the bridge companion caused the Imnfinent words to be withheld. It was Courtenay, who had run up from the salon to procure those fateful letters which had so nearly parted Elsie and himself. He had laughingly refused to tell her their history. That would spoil their effect, he said. She must take them to her stateroom and read them at her leisure. Then she would see thefr true inwardness, and his feelings would be spared, as he could not deny that the majority of them bad been written by ladles. On his way he looked Into the wheelhouse. There was no light in the interior. Boyle, wrapped in a heavy coat, was seated in the most sheltered corner. "All quiet?" asked the captain in his brisk way. "Nothin doin sir," answered Boyle. "i expect you are both feeling pretty tired. Tollemache and I propose to relieve you at six bells." - "But why?" demanded Christobal. "It is you who have passed an exciting day. I am ready to mount guard until

Boyle had cornered Chrlstobul in thi $aum. dawn. Tollemache can join me now If he likes, as Mr. Boyle oueht to be In bed." , "I'm ail right," said Boyle srufflv. 41 am only sitting here because my back is stiff." Courtenay glanced at the somber shadow of Point Kansas, silhouetted against the deep blue of the seaward arc. "Suarez has retired to roost," he said. "He seems to be quite assured that the Indians will never deliver a night attack." "Today's hammering should teach them to leave the Kansas alone in future," saiChristobaL "I hope so, but Suarez and Tollemache agree that they are most persistent wretches. Now, Boyle, you xavst obey the dc etor. I am going back t? the salon to give Miss Maxwell some documents I wish her to see. Then Tollemache and I will relieve the pair of you. All right, Christobal. I promise to take my share of the blankets in the morning. I shall be ready for a nap at 4 o'clock. At present I feel rjarticnlarly wide awake." He went to the cabin. They heard him unlock the door and enter. At that Instant a startling hail came from two sailors stationed on the poop. "Indianos!" they yelled.
