A Mystery of the Sea By EUNICE BLAKE The night was pitchy dark as Captain MacArthur, master ot the bark Penguin, stood on the deck of his ship listening to a sound that greatly disturbed him. He thought he heard a bell attached to a buoy. But It was bo faint that he was not sure that what he heard was not one of those ringings within his ears that some persons are subject to or a freak of his imagination. There It was again, this time a trifle more distinct. The Penguin was coming westward and was midway between Gibraltar and New York. The Azores and Madeira had been left several hundred miles behind. True, clouds had prevented an observation for several days, but Captain MacArthur bad so much sea room that he had not the slightest fear of a near shore. Indeed, he was 1 in the middle of the Atlantic ocean. Nevertheless he was approaching a bell buoy, for the tolling came with the Irregularity of the waves. Fearing to approach any nearer to it, he gave orders to the helmsman to steer In a circle while the lead was being thrown. The boson reported no bottom, but the captain’s fears were not allayed. The sound of the bell was rapidly growing more distinct There was the same Irregularity of the strokes throughout, Indicating that it was tolled by the waves. MacArthur had heard these sounds as long as he had been at sea, and they had always arisen from the same instrument a bell buoy. There can be nothing more calculated to throw a man off his equanimity than one ot these paradoxical occurrences. We hear or see or feel something; we know what It is, and yet we know that It is not what our senses tell us It is. It Is liable to come to us In dreams, but rarely when we are awake. Captain MacArthur momentarily dreaded to strike a sunken rock, and yet he knew that there was no such danger within a thousand miles of him. He asked the few men who were on deck with him if they heard the tolling, and all said they did, but none of them could give any explanation of it. Some of them knew little of navigation or geography, but there was none so uninformed that he did not know that there were no sunken rocks in the middle of the Atlantic ocean. Yet there is always an uncertainty to break down one’s courage. Might there be in that vast wilderness of waters one rock remaining for centuries undiscovered? Might not ships that have sailed never to be heard from have been lost on this infinitely small point In so vast an area? Nonsense! If such were the case there would be no bell buoy to warn ships away. And if there were such a rock protected by a buoy It would be on the charts. Something like this was running through Captain MacArthur’s mind. Probably his was more keenly alive to the matter than any of his crew because on him rested the responsibility for the lives of all and of the ship. There were one or two of the more superstitious wbo gave a different explanation of what they heard. One imputed It to evil spirits who were using it to drive the ship away from deep waters or waters clear of other ships on to an area of danger. Another considered it a tolling for a ship that had at some time gone down on that very spot. But while every one listened and thought not one spoke his Interpretations of the mystery. As the sound of the tolling Indicated approach by its increasing distinctness, so having reached a maximum. It indicated recession by a gradual dying, till at last it was heard no more. Then the captain breathed a sigh of relief, which was imitated by the others. The mystery, whatever it was, had passed as mysteriously as It had come. But It came again. The next day came a storm from the west, and the Penguin, after beating up against It, at last was obliged to turn and ride before it By evening the storm had spent Its force, and the ship was again put on her course. Near midnight was again heard that irregular melancholy tolling. This second visit finding the crew tired and depressed from their experience with the storm, had a keener effect upon them than the night before. Moreover, superstition seizes upon us when we are worn out Captain MacArthur looked troubled. His officers listened to the strokes in silence, while some of the crew muttered prayers to heaven for protection from this unknown evil. Again the sounds approached, reaching a maximum of distinctness, then died away. But in this case they were longer, and the strokes clanged louder, as if made by fierce waves. In the morning the outlook reported a ship on the starboard quarter. She was without mast or sail and seemed to have been disabled, doubtless by the recent storm. As the Penguin approached her the crew heard again the mysterious tolling. The captain, who had brought his glass to bear on her as soon as he heard It, lowered the glass and said: “The riddle is solved. What we have heard is the bell of a derelict." And so it turned out When a boats crew stepped on the stranger’s deck they found that the bell cord had rotted away and left the clapper to swing as the ship was tossed about by the waves. Married At So. Bend Mr. Sam P. Starr, son of Mrs. Henrietta Starr of Goshen, and Miss Ethel Clyde, of South Bend, were married at 4:30 o'clock Wednesday afternoon in So. Bend. Miss Clyde has played for dances in Syracuse.
