“CHEVON,” DECLARE TEXANS, GOAT MEAT’S PROPER NAME AUSTIN, Tex., iUP>—It’s “chevon,” not goat meat, that the government now is buying and distributing as a part of its surplus commodity distribution. It may be goat meat to most of the recipients, but any Texas goat raiser will tell you it is officially “chevon.” They are asking government agents to so label it in the distribution. “Chevon” was adopted officially as the proper name for goat meat in 1922. Goat raisers then offered a prize for the most suitable name. It was suggested by M s. E. W. Hardgrave of Sanderson, Tex. Railroad diners and many hotels now place “chevon’' on their menus. It is a combination of the French “chevre” <goat> ami “mouton” (mutton >.

CHAPTER XII GOOD BYE, LONG JOHN SILVER! . Squire Trelawney awaited at the entrance to Bon Gunn’s cave in a naturally fortified cliff on the hill- • ide. He pumped Jim’s arm with enthusiasm, crying: “Jim! Gad! Strike me pink! Magnificent, Liveseyl We watched It all from up here.’ Gray, I’ll have you cited for this! Gunn, you’re a
genius! ”
“Step inside, Jim,” said Dr. Live-
eey. “Things to see...”
“Step across my door-sill, Mr. Silver,” said Ben Gunn, capering. “For my hospitality, says I. And
that I will, says you.”
They found the cave hung and matted with goat-skins and wooden Denches which Gunn had fashioned, but the tiling that sent Jim to gasping, open-mouthed, was a mass of money-bags and open chests revealing piles of gold coin, caskets of shimmering jewels, piled in mu?ty sad cobwebby contusion on the ground in a corner of the cave. “All found and carried up here by my own hands, says I!” cried Ben Gunn, gleefully nipping Jim’s cheek. Long John Silver turned, beaming, to Captain Smollett. “Well, now I reports back for duty, Cap’n Smollett 1 Jim nnd I tricked ’em powerful, wc did! And now wc’vc got the treasure, we’re all one happy—” “We’ve got the treasure?’’ said

“Doesn’t everybody...” Jim shrugged, trying to be hard and tough. “I thought everyone wanted a drink before they’re hanged.”
“ Hanged, matey T”
“They've gone over to the frigate. The Captain says they can hold a naval trial tomorrow nnd the Squire says they’ll swing you from her
yard-arm.”
Silver gave a drop whistle. “That ain’t exactly a breather now, is it, Jim?... They all went over!” “No. They left Ben Gunn on
watch.”
Silver loobed keenly at the grieving boy, “Well, you can stand on deck and see me swing, Jim.” “There’s a heap o’ fine ceremony in a navy hanging, -Jim. The whole ship's company drawn up at attention — and they tire one gun for you ■ as a parting salute... just before, you drop. A power of dignity to 1

“I kn the man.I’ve been...” Ho stopped, fearing the tears would come to his eyes. Silver smiled like a martyr. “Well, we won't tiiink about Hint, matey. You lies—and flint’s nil, though it ain’t always as quick ns some thinks. ’ ’ “ Why... why not 1 ’ ’ shud-

“Not half so strong nor harsh ns the rope 1 ’ll be pleased to see you dangling from on Execution Dock! You're under arrest and I’m taking you back to England to stand trial just as fast as I can float the ship.” Squire Trelawney, Dr. Livesey and Jim looked up from the jewels and doubloons dripping through their fingers at Smollett’s words and gazed in silence at Long John Sil-
ver.
“Aye, aye, sir,” said that worthy, raising his hand to his forelock. As they sailed away the following day, Tom Morgan and Ephraim Post, marooned on the island, knelt on the sandy beach and hold out imploring arms, but Captain Smollett turned his eyes from them. Long John Silver was confined in the brig where he spent his time pacing up and down, the parrot on his shoulder. At the back of the brig

“It’s terrible!” moaned Jim, covering his face with his hands. Hurriedly he took a key from his pocket and unlocked the door. “There! The lolly boat’a at the gangway! Y on're free from here! But I don’t know how you’ll get by Ben Gunn.” Silver’s eyes sparkled with joy, but he acted the martyr. “No, Jim, it’s my medicine! And you'd be n party to cheating justice.” “No, you paved my life, and I’ll

bearing a tray of food which he silently passed in to the prisoner. “thank ’ee, Jim, but old Long John’s belly don’t receive food very joyful.” He sighed nnd Jim moved his hands and feet uncomfortably. “I asked the Captain, Long John. He says he won’t let you ou deck
until ive reach Jamaica.”
Silver’s eyes perked up at mention of Jamaica,-then he sighed. “Think he’d grant fresh air to a man who won’t be breathin’ it much longer,
wouldn’t you I”
“Y-y-yes,” said Jim, distressed.
Silver brightened up.
“Well, matey, the point's this”— lie gestured with his head to the wall back of him —“your treasure’s all Mowed away safe and sound and old John stowed next to it — caged up like tn African baboon!” Ho laughed harshly. “Have you counted
it yet, Jim?”
“No.”
“Now there’s that much a mermaid could flip aboard some night,' take twenty or thirty thousand pounds and you'd never miss it,
would you!”
“No, I guess not,’’ replied Jim
After nn awkward himself. “Well,
serve...” nnd betook himself away. With Jim out of sight, Long John Silver moved some boxes that covered the spot where, with a knife he had concealed, he was trying to hack his way through the bulkhead to the
treasure beyond.
When they reached Jamaica harbor, an English frigate lay at anchor not far away. In reply to Smollett's signal, the" commander replied for Smollett to come abonrd. As he was going overboard into the gig, with the Squire nnd Gray, Smollett called to Ben Gunn who sat on a coil of rope at the mir.zen mast, a pistol in his belt, cutting a slice from a chunk .of cheese in bis tmud and smiling “Eyes peeled now, Gunn! I want no bumboat craft coming alongside!” “A British ship of the line!” cried the Squire. “And tomorrow we may have the pleasure of seeing Silver hanging from her yard-arm!” Jim’s heart went heavy as he heard the Squire’s words and it was with a bad and morose spirit that he sought out 1 ong John, bearing a bot-
tle of rum.
“ Well, matey, come to let old John mt for a breather! ’ ’ Jim shook bis hesd sadly as he
Ah, matey... Well, so' be it, matey Jim.” He tried to rise but couldn’t make it. Some weight seemed to bo holding him down. “Hum, Jim, help me up...my rheumatic again. Damp in here. Where’s Ben Gunn!” , “Sitting by the mizzen mast on
guard.”
“You go aft and fetch me a pistol, .. Oh, it's not far Hen. Him and I were old shipmates! 1 wants it for protection ashore.” Helped up to his feet, Silver, the moment Jim was gone, gripped the bottle by the neck and crept up the companionway, picked up a belaying pin and sneeked up behind Gunn and struck him on the side of the head. Gunn slipped from the coil of rope to the deck, and Silver put the bottle of rum besride him. Jim cried out at seeing Gunn prostrate on the deck when he came running up with the
pistol.
“TchI Tch!” said Silver, quickly. “That’s powerful bad, Jim — left to guard a ship and lies here in drunken stupor.” He pocketed the pistol nnd hobbled to I be gangway and held out his hand. And now Silver was genuinely affected. “Well, matey, what old John's got to tell you, he don’t know how :•
pause, he oxcuacd ! wy-• • H won’t mean you’ll be fot1’vc luncheon to giving me for anything I’ve done.
It's just, for the mates wc migkt
have been.”
“Long John, you won’t be a pirate any more!’’ pleaded Jim, chok-
ingly.
“Honesty is my course from now on, Jim. Shiver my timbers if it ain’t.”
As he spoke a bag slipped from under his coat nnd plunged heavily to the deck. “I’m glad that happened, matey,” said Silver, solemnly. “It is what I was trying to tell you nnd didn’t know how. I.... I rut through the bulwark iuto the treasure hold mid took that one sack of gold — before I promised, to be honest, Jim! And now it’s off my conscience.” Jim grabbed the bag of gold nnd thrust it into his hands. “Take it, matey. You’ll have to buy food and...” He choked up. Long John took the parrot from his shoulder and gave it to Jinu “Feed her well, Jim. Some day you may want to go back to that island and get the bar silver. Old John’s your man then!” He slipped dosva into the gig and Jim, tears in his eyes, watched take up the oars and row for his Ufa.
