• A prolonged, heavy knocking on the door interrupted the merriment mid every eye followed Mrs. Haw kins’ progress to the door, eager to see who the insistent knocker might be Their eves bulged as a large, ■bloated man in a huge sea-coat and
tricorn with a stave like n
spike in his hand, entered, behind him a second man bent almost double by the weight of a sea-chest on Ins
shoulders.
* 4 This is a handy cove,” said the man, blowing a mighty blast on his red nose, “and a pleasant sittrated
grog shop.**
“I’ll stay here a bit,” said the stranger after a moment's thought. ” I'in a plain man Itum and bacon nnd eggs is what I wants. Sonny, 1 wants a double noggin of rum
right now.”
•Inn hastened to fill the order while his mother, glancing at tin* cutlass showing bem-ath the man’s sea coat,
asked his name.
♦ ” Well, ma'am. Paptnin You might call me Captain ” He fumbled in his pocket and threw some coins on the floor as dim returned with the rum. * * You can tell me, ma'am, when F have run through that. Where’s my bunkf I want a bunk

41 What strange looking mol»ey! ,, exclaimed Jim, picking up the coins. 1 ‘I’leces of right, flood as gold,” said the Captain. ‘‘ Forward to my
bunk, sonny.”
Jim led the way upstairs to a room with a window overlooking the sea. The Captain and the man bearing his brass bound sea chest followed. “Put the chest here on the quarter deck, not in the scuppers.” When it was stowed to suit him the Cap tain gave the bearer a coin. “Mind now — vc ne’er took this voyage. Ye ne’er saw me and ye know noth-

guests looked at him, alarm in their .•v**s C>iris drew closer to their swains A mild-mannered man signalled to his wife and started to get to his feet to leave. The Captain noticed his action % * Delay that’ Ye'll stay! Ye’U

“ May you please, ma'am, I’m seeing that they all stay Jim, matey, the mint’’ Jim hastened to fill all glasses, and the drunken Captain rumbled on “Now 1 ain’t like all sea faring men. Really genteel, I am, and a dove at heart, mates. Now l knows some sea faring men that boarded a Spanish brig being all loaded with Castillian dons and their beauteous Indies. And what did they do? They slices the dons like
marlin | bread loaves and feeds ’em to the
sharks* And what did they do to the beauteous Indiest” He drained another nc: , gm “Why alter courtin* their favor, as it were—savin’ your presence, .Tim, matey — they slits the veins of their lily-white arms and uses their blue-blood to warm their rum’ And then what did they, do, matey I” W " “What what else was left to dot" gasped Jim, Ins eyes uearly popping from Ins head. i “There was a song, .Tim — singing by all hands: v ^ • Fifteen men on a dead man's

When the villager had gone the I Captain went to the window and trained the spyglass In* took from his pocket on the road leading up to the ’Admiral Benbow as the moon peeked through the scattering clouds. “What are you looking fort”

“Kh?” cried the Captain with a loud snort that cau>cd Jim to jump backward. “Oh, it’s you, sonny! Strangers.

“What manner of strangers!”
asked Jim.
t “Seafaring men.. There’s a rial cut o* jib about those. Soiiu got a reef in their cheek like me here — and some’s got no ears — lopped oft*—” He winked mightily. “Discipline, yc know. Jim. Hut more special, matey, you keep your weather eye open for a sea faring

There be lubbers goin' about to get the wind o’ me this tdes-esl moment. Now you just go below and draw me another noggin of rum — a big noggin, for 1 'in becalmed on a sea of troubles —and I’ve got to till my sail# again.” He t->'-k off his coat and hat and threw them upon the licit as Jim went to till his order. Then the Captain knelt quickly and tested the lock on Ins elicit. Satisfied that no one could break it open, be liitched up his cutlass and followed Jim down to tin* tap room. He seized the noggin of rum that Jim brought to him, gulped it down and ordered another. He smiled with a smile that was somewhat terrifying to the silence tncken guests. “ Rum for all hands, says 1! Here’s s new port full o’ pretty wenches and strong young buckosl Clear the decks for pleasant act ion I Fill a pretty belly with grog mid that’s what makes the world spin on its poles, says I!” He burst into drunk a tn f uproarious laughter, and the

The women screamed ns a unit while the men jumped to their feet. “If you do not lower that cutlass,said Dr. Livesey, calmly, “I promise you, upon my honor, you 1 hall hang at the next assize*.

J Months passed, and the Captain* daily haunted the cliffs spying out to si a and up and down the road with his spyglass, eternally on the watch for someone. He was three months in arrears for board, lodging and dunk and Mrs. Hawkins had looked up the rum and was praying to be ml of him. Her prayers were nhswered i’l an unexpected manner. ^ Jini was wiping the mugs one afternoon when there came a banging on the knocker of the Admiral Ben - bow. .Inn opened to a pale, tallowly individual with a fawning expression, a cutlass at his belt, two fingcie mi ning from his left hand. - J “Come, sonny, come closer ’ere,'* he said in an oily tone. “Now in this ’ere table for my mate, Billt'l ( “1 don’t know your mate BUL Nobody but the Captain—” ’ I ”Oh, Captain is it!” interrupted the man, “We’ll put it for argument like that your Captain, bles* ’is ’cart, has a cut on one cheek — I the right cheek— Ah,” he cried at Jim ’* start, “I told youl Now in my mate, bill, beret”^ ^
