Redwood Morton WA,perliai", the young
eat ship owner in Philadelphia. He had In
herited his wealth from a father who had
prospered In liuslnesj.and the name ol Mor
ton was worth everything on exchange. At
the date of the openlne of our story, he
owned but ono vessel-and she, even, was
for sale. He said he Intended to leave the
maritime trade, and many people believed
that he was Roing to marry and retire to
quiet life on his wealth.
His riches did not make him ostentatious
His bachelor apartments were well, but not
luxuriously, furnished, nnd his large circle
of acquaintances wondered why ho did not
come out more to their liking. Hut ho had
his reasons, his prejudlcfs, and, as the read
er shall see, lit bates and loves.
'So you are going down in the Petrel.'one
of his acquaintances said to him one bright
afternoon,
'Not down to tho bottom of the sea : but
down to the orange groves of Cuba,' smiled
Morton.
'As the Petrel will be sold upon her return
I have determined to take leavo of her In
last voyage.'
'Willyou take any passengers?'
Jtone. Did you wat t to go V
No; but a female acquaintance of mine
would be pleased to sail in the Petrel.'
'A woman, eh ?' ejaculated Morton, with
a merry twinkle in his hard eyes. 'Why,
our conversation is getting romantic. Where
does the lady wish to go?'
To Havana.'
We shall touch there.'
just to ner liking ; out as you say you
will convey no passengers, she must content
herself a while longer on terra firma.'
No j do not consider me positive, Far
land,' Morton hastened to say. 'A lady pas
senger might add much pleasure to the voy
age ; and, beside, an affaire du creur might
result from it. I am a bachelor, you
see."

produced some wine of Rhenish vintage,
'If your acquittance would call,' Morton
remarked, as the conversation had returned
to the would-be passenger.
I will seo that she docs. You sail-
when?'
To-morrow.'
'She will call this afternoon.'
'Good I I will brush up a bit, dust my
furniture, and prepare for her reception,'
A few minutes later Dott Farland left
Morton's quarters and walked away.
'Ha ! you'll never seo Cuba if you take
her with you 1' he muttered to himself.
'When you see her I think you will-udhero

Redwood Morton, you think I have over

ueais some wounus, Dut not sttcu as you
make.'
Dott Farland was a good-looking man of
limited means. Though barred from the
best society of the eity,hls poems were read
and admired there, and he loved to boast
that verses, written on the gaming table,
wero quoted in the model family circle of
the best avenues. He was a fertile poet,but
his associations kept him down.
From Morton's house he went straight to
a well-known European hotel, in theparlorof
which be met a tall woman, with great blue
eyes and fair auburn hair, She sat at the
window, attired in walking costume, and
smiled when he entered.
'Well, what success?' she asked, anxious
ly, and with much impatience.
'Tolerably fair,' he replied. 'He wants
to see you.'
See mel' exclaimed the woman. 'No,
no; at least not now.
'Then you caunot sail in thel'etrel, which
departs to-morrow. You can dissemble,
Bertha ; be will believe that you have for
gotten the past, and he will gladly take you
out with him.'
'Once at sea, and he will know that I have
not forgotten,' cried the woman, clenching
her hands while her eyes flashed. 'To sail
in the Petrel, you think I must see him ?'
'I know you must,' said Dott Farland.
'To-day, then ?'
'Before night.'
'Then be it so. I will go at once,' Ber
tha said, firmly. 'I must sail In the Petrel.'
The afternoon was drawing to a closo when
Redwood Morton received the would-be pas

'What a passion 1' exclaimed the ship
owner, 'liut hates and curses do not sluk
ships. I believe that Dott Farland has a
hand in this. I have not forgotten the time
I dashed a goblet of wine into his face at
Beechwood for the sake of this same Bertha
Walker. Then her beauty dazzled me, but,
when I saw the conquest upon which she was
bent, I turned away and incurred her ever
lasting hatred. Lottie, I fear for your dear
self, now,' he said in a low tone. 'She ridi
cules the love I have given you ; bad she
been a man should havo resented the in
sult. Girl, if you will, you shall sail in the
Petrel to-morrow, for now that the tigress is
unchained, the hart must be protected.'
He ceased, put on his hat, and left the
house.
The city lamps were lighted when he
entered an unpretentious house among tho
suburbs.
A fair young girl met him in the parlor
ana blushed when he kissed her.
This girl was Lottie King, and the person
called 'doll-faced' by Rertha Walker in her
anger. She had not passed her eighteenth
year, was fragile, but very beautiful; and
not so tall as the ship-owner. Her father
was dead; hut she lived with her widowed
mother whom sho helped to support with
her needle. I do not know aught of her first
acquaintance with the shipowner, but it was
plain that they had long been friends anfl
lovers.
Before the mother Redwood Morton laid
bis plans.
Ho was going out in the Petrel on her last
voyirgu under his ownership, and he wanted
to take Lottie with him that she might enjoy
the tropics. The scheme delighted the girl,
and before he left that night he had the prom
ise that she would go.
When he reached his quarters he found
the Petrel's captain awaiting him. The old
salt bad to report that several of the crew
had deserted, and received orders to secure
sailors in their places before sailing.
That very night two men entered a small
law office on Arch street. One was well clad
and handsome and the other was a sailor, as
his peculiar walk indicated. After entering
the room no gas was turned on, but the men
Beated themselye3 near the window, aud the
light of the moon fell upon them.
'I'll give you $1,000 to do the job said the
well-dressed man.
The sailor opened his eyes.
'I will take it if you will tell me why you
want the job done,
'That is none of your business, to be plain
about it,' was the reply' If you do not want
to take the offer, I will hunt another man,
for I tell you that the Petrel must be sunk
on this voyage.'
The speaker roso to his feet and picked
up his hat which ho had placed on the
table.
'We can't bargain, then,' he resumed.
'Come, let us go down.'
No, I'll sink her tor one thousaud,' said
We cannot bo far fiom the coast" ho said
to the Petrel's second officer on the third
night of tho storm. If wo can but weather
the gale till day all will be well.'
'But I fear we cannot ; the storm Increas
es at every moment, and to add to our peril,
tho Petrel is aleak.'
'Aleak, cried the owner ; 'the bark Petrel
aleak in such a storm as this?'
'Aye !'
'Why did you not tell me before?'
I dared not. Your sweetheart Is on
board, and I could not, Morton.
Great fate I' exclaimed the owner. Are
we sinking rapidly?'
Not very rapidly ; but we are liable to go
down suddenly.
Methinks I hear tho water in the hold
now. Wait for another hash of lightning.
There, I saw a long stretch of coast then.
Did you see It ?'
'I thought'
At that moment the captain's voice was
heard.
'We aro going down, master!' he cfied.
'The coast is not far oil'. I will lower the
boats.'
'Quick, then 1' cried Morton, and sprang
toward Lottie King's stateroom.
'Bertha Walker's curse P he ejaculated. 'I
never thought it would be heard.'
A minute afterwards he reappeared on
deck with Lottio in his arms. The lightning
flashing every minute, revealed the pale fa
ces of the crew, and the first boat dropped
over the straining Petrel's side.
We've been scuttled, master,' the captain
said, coming up suddenly. 'One of tho new
men did it the sailor, I think.
'Where are they?'
'The sailor is missing; there stands the
other tho landsman.'
Redwood Morton ltoked at the person
designated by the captain, and a gleam of
astonishment lit up his eyes.
'Watch him,' be said to bis officer. 'I
will first seo Lottie in the beat,'
He saw tha woman he loved deposited in
the boat that rocked on the billows at the
Petrel's bide, and was about to reascend to
the deck when the ship was suddenly torn
away, and the next flash revealed her set-
ling.
The master saw the boats tall over her,
and the men lowering themselves by the
chains and ropes.
'Look. Lottie I' he suddenly cried "Be
hold that person w'lio remains on deck I'
'I see,' said the cirl. 'Why does he not
try to Bave himself?'
Cherished plans may fail. That person
is Bertha Walker I'

raised her veil, au ejaculation of surprise fell
from his lips.
This is a surprise, Miss Walker,' he said,
recovering. We have not met lor live
years. Indeed, I did not know that you
were in the city, and had no idea that Mr.
Farland referred to yon iu his conversation
several hours since.'
'I am the lady referred to,' she replied,
with a faint smile.' I desire to go to Ha
vanna.and must thrust myself upon your
kindness, The Petrel, I believe, sails to
morrow ; no other vessels follow for several
weeks, and they are very precious to me. I
have Interests Iu Havana that must be look'
ed after; hence my eagtrness to depart.'
She finished, and waited for him to speak.
For a while Redwood Morton looked his vis
itor in the eye, and slowly rose from the
chair,
Miss llertha Walker,' he said slowly, tho
Petrel will sail without you.'
The next instant the woman was on her
feet, facing him with flashing eyes, Her
face was white, and her lips quivered with
Illy-smothered passion.
'I am content,' she said, 'but let me tell
you that I will yet havo my revenge. Red
wood Morton, you do not know me as some
men do. I have crushed hopes before this,
as I would crush an egg shell In my hand,
My very fate drives ships upon rocks, and
mv hate will drive you to despair. I know
that doll-faced girl who believes thit you
love her. You love a woman 1 pshaw 1 Red

your feet. I say this to tell you how I hate
you and everything on which you smile
The very grass you tread the nag that
waves over your ship. I will encompass
vour destruction, and boldly this, I will
curse your ship till heaven, to close my
mouth, enwraps you In a tempest which
shall seud you to tho bottom you and your
accursed bark.'
She looked like a rjueen of tragedy as sh
the sailor. 'I guess I ought to know why
you want the work done,
Good I your hand on that, said the em
ployer, 'Now, go down and enlist to night ;

our money,
Tho men left the attorney's office together,
and after an hour had passed one returned
alone.
The sailor had been accepted by the Pet

Everything works well,' tho man in the
law office said to himself. 'Redwood .Mor
ton, there is more than one way to win a
woman, and after my man sends you to the
bottom of the Bea, I will make a bride of
Lottie King.'
Ah I he did not know that Lottie King
was to sail in the Petrel.
When the morning came, he emerged
from a fine hotel, and went down to the an
choraee and looked at Morton's shin.
Mine at last, Lottie King,' he murmured
and turned abruptly, for he heard tho echo
of the name. 1

'They will marry on their return, I sup

'If they ever return yes,' was the reply,
If the Petrel reaches Havanna, all on
board safe, they may wed there.
The face of the listener grew deathly pale,
and he glanced from the men to the Petrel,
whose bright sails were beginning to nil.
'There she goes,' exclaimed Dott Farland,
May the wind and the waves send them to
the bottom of the sea.'
'Yes : and the girl he has taken with him
Come, Dott, let us drink to his destruction,'
The men walked away, leaving the mau
who had sent the sailor on board the Petrel
standing alone.
His eyes seemed ready to start from their
sockets as he gazed at the vessel slowly mov

his lips:

The next morning several pieces of the
wreck drifted ashore, and to one clung the

Lottie dressed her for the grave, and kiss

Redwood Morton beleived that the re
vengeful woman had planned the scuttling
of the ship, if, indeed, she was not au actual
participant : but she knew nothing of the
dastardly deed. She was following the own
