A LIFE-STORY.
"Or.« flay when I ar growing tall and old,
Ani wise enough lo wander where I will.
Then 1 shall climb the height and iind the
gold
That hides behind the hill!"
80 thought a child, whose home was In the
vale.
Watching nn amber sunset fade and die.
Telling herself the children's endless tale
Of life's sweet by and by.
Tears passed, Bove came, she climbed the
height with him.
Rut only saw the glory In his gaze!
Earth was so bright, and heaven's gold so
dim
In thqse enchanted days!
More years went by, and she was all alone
In the sweet valley of her early past:
The dream came back, and faith in things
unshown
Was found again at last.
One eventide when she was gray and old,
And wise enough to know the Higher
Will,
fihe climbed the height, and then she found
the gold
That hides behind the hill.

SYNOPSIS.
Master Ardlch, Just reached his majority
or.d thrown upon his own resources, after
stating his case to one liouthwick, a ship
master, Is shipped as second mate on the
Industry, bound for Havana. Mr. Tym,
the supercargo, descries a sail. The strange
vessel gives chase, but is disabled by the
Industry's guns. In the fray one of the
crew is killed and liouthwick is seen to
fall. The captain Is found to be dead, but
the Industry Is litttle damaged. Sellinger,
first mate takes charge and puts Into Sld
mouth to secure a new mate. Several days
later, when well out to sea, an English
merchantman Is met, whose captain has a
letter addressed to Jeremiah Hope, at
Havana. The crew of the vessel tell
atrange tales of the buccaneer Morgan,
who Is sailing under the king's cotnmls
eion to take Panama. One night a little
later, the English vessel having proceeded
on her course, a bit of paper Is slipped into
Ardick's hand by one of the sailors. This
Is found to be a warning of a mutiny plot
headed by Pradey, the new mate. Ardick
consults Mr. Tym. They resolve to secure
the mate, but I'radey, eavesdropping In
the cabin, makes through the door and
arouses the crew. Capt. Sellinger joins
Ardick and Tym. The crew break through
the now barricaded door, but are forced to
retire, having lost seven of their number.
Finding themselves now too short-handed
to manage the boat, I'radey decides to scut
tle and desert the vessel, taking his men
off in the only available boat. The captain,
supercargo and second mate soon discover
their plight, but hastily constructing a raft
get away just before their vessel sinks.
The next mornlr.g a Spaniard draws near
them. The mar In the rigging shouts: "If
you would board us, take to your oars. Be
speedy, or you will fall short." On board
they are sent forward with the crew, be
ing told they will be sold as slaves on reach
ing i'aiianm.
CIIAPTEH VIII.—CONTINUED.
I pot below, and in great weariness
put down Mr. Tym's box and fetched a
glance around. By degrees, as I be
came accustomed to the duskiness, I
made out the features of the place.
It was low for the bigness of the
ship, and was furnished after a very
poor and rough sort. The bunks and
hammocks were old and fit to drop
«ipart, none of tlie timbers or work of
the ship were smoothed except by the
friction of use, and a mere dilapidated
fence served as a bulkhead to part oil
the cook's quarters. Luckily the
smells of the place, ill as they were—
for all was disordered and dirty—were
not of the worst, for at this time both
a windward and a leeward port stood
partly open, and the passage of the
small breeze through served to sweep
out the eliiefest of the odors.
We did not come by a good knowl
edge of the plactr instantly, for it was
somewhat dimly lighted, the port on
the larboard side being closed and that
upon the starboard standing scarce two
Inches upon the hook, but upon peer
ing about a bit ot first one feature and
■then another came oat.
We had taken two or three steps for
ward, and 1 was casting a glance in
the direction of the cook's furnace,
when an object nearly concealed by it
moved, and this I presently saw was
the cook himself. He had been sitting
on a box, with his elbows on his knees,
or in some manner bowed forward, and
rose up as we stopped and looked alert
ly at us. lie was a little fellow, in
clined to be pursy, and near all his
figure was hidden by a long white
apron, his face, however, coming out
In the winks of a short pipe. I dis
covered that he had light hair, which
Is not common among the Spanish, and
this made me notice him a little more
than I should otherwise have done.
He came out from his place, seeing us
halt, and made a little civil gesture,
upon which I bowed gravely and gave
him good morning.
"Beunos clias," he responded, and
then, to my great surprise, softly
added: "But gude marning in the
.aukl tongue, if sae ye'll hae it."
He took out his pipe as he spoke and
crossed over to us.
"What, a Sandy!" I cried, delighted,
"and what is he doing here?"
I seized his hand and gave it a most
cordial grip, as did also my compan
ions. "(Jae a bit cautiously," he whis
pered, with a meaning nod toward the
forecastle. "Ye mauna seem owcr
pleased. You'll find this a pleasant
fillip," he added in Spanish, "and able
in all weathers. I take it yonder is
where you are to sling your ham
jmocks."
My companions caught the point he
would make, which was to avoid tlife
jealousy or suspicion of the boat
swain, and they did not interrupt,
while I returned a suitable answer.
"I'eteetion to sling your hammocks
3100," he swiftly whispered, as I ended.
"Likewise say bawldly that ye need a
mickle rest, and wad hae a bit drink
,#nd a sup."
I nodded and asked aloud for a pipe.
"Mine is broken," 1 said in Spanish,
"and you know what a seaman is with
out his clay."
"I am to ask the boatswain to grant
us a little time below," I whispered to
my companion. "Feign overcoming
weariness as we pass out."
With this I signed to my companions
to follow, and returned to the fore
castle. The boatswain had lighted his
own pipe and was sitting on one of the
men's boxes, firing away in leisurely
puffs.
I made heavily along to him, exag
gerating my real weariness, and pre
ferred my request.
"Aye, if you Wke," he replied, care
lessly. "Yonder, in that corner, you
will lind three hammocks. Sling them
and afterward take your bite. Aye,
and have a turn with the pipe. A sea
man is naught without his clay, and
you will be fitter for the work. 1 '
I thanked liini and translated the
talk to my companions.
We were not long, saving that we
dared not mend our pace too suddenly,
in slinging the hammocks and dispos
ing of our few effects.
It was now the beginning of the first
dog watch, and none of the men were
in the forecastle. The time was sea
sonable, and we hastened to begin otir
confab with the cook. We asked him
first what had brought him on a Span
ish ship, for we Britons are not often
found on such, and in answer he gave
us a brief but consistent story of ship
ping from a Scotch port and in a smart
blow falling overboard, to be picked
up just in the nick of time by a Span
ish coaster. She carried him to Mala
ga. he said, his original port being Car
tagena, and from there he had been
glad to ship on the I'ilanca. llis story
ended, we fell to questioning him on
our present surroundings. What was
the I'ilanca, and who were these fine
people she carried?
"Aweel, the Tilanca is naethingbut
a common sort of merchantman," he
answered, "and her trade is maist
times betwixt Havana and the straits,
but just noo she is a special charterer
frae the king. She is carrying Don
Perez de Guzman, governor of Pana
ma, to Cliagre, and the auld noble ye
clavered wi' Is the man."
"But now a word as to our own state,
Sandy," I began. "Or, first, I should
be thankful for a better grip of your
name."
"It'll be a cordial to hear ye speak it;
these loons canna," he answered, with
a sniiT. "It's Donald Mac Ivraeh, frae
Clagvarloch."
"Then, friend Donald," I went on,
"what think you of our prospects?
they not something dubious?
"1 canna say nae," he answered, hi<=
countenance sobering. "Ye are like
to be ser'd wi' 110 sweet sauce ance ye
reach Panama."
"Let it rest so," said Mr. Tym. "And
now another question: Who are al!
these other bravely dressed people?
I noticed both men and women."
"Will it be brawly dress fowk?" said
Maclvrach, brightening. "Xay. but we
hae the governor's leddy—the auld
dame wi' the dour look and the bit
whiskers —rtiotigli it's no sure ye wad
see them, either, along wi' the man
tilla, and sic like —and for anitlier grit
ane, Don Luis Delasco, a count by title,
and'rich in land and gowd, but sum' in
body, and an ill tyke to look upon. lie
Is the governor's son-in-law, and is i»ot
to be envied, they say, sic a deil's anc
scauld is her leddyship. Amang the
ithers are Don Lopez Castillo, Don En
rique de Cavodilla, and Don Leon de
Cruzon. They are hidalgos, and friends
o' the governor, and three mair proud,
preceese auld cocks ye'll gae far to
find."
We were very well satisfied with this
description, and indeed, somewhat sur
feited, especially in view of the tempt
ing smells from the cookery. Mac
Ivracli hastily inverted another box,
hunted up three pannikins, with
spoons, which lie placed upon it, and
poured out the mess from the pot. It
proved to be a delicious onion stew.
We lost no time in proving it, which I
will say now pleased my palate more
than anything I ever remember of eat
ing, and in this wise I continued —be-
ing no whit before my companions—
till the pot was empty.
Mac Ivraeh now crowned his hos
pitable efforts by producing pipes and
tobacco, and when we had moved the
boxes about, that we might take more
comfortable postures, we raked a coal
from the furnace, and with great ease
and pleasure proceeded to light up.
Our stomachs were satisfied, we were
cozlly by ourselves, and the ship was
traveling very pleasantly along, so
that, for the time at least, we might be
said to be in a state of comparative
content. This was all the more grate
ful after the long hardship and ex
posure of the raft. 111 the discourse
that followed we answered freely Mac
Ivracb's questions, he having till now
but a scant knowledge of us, and con
trived to impress him, as I thought,
with the advantage to himself in con
tinuing his friendship and good offices.
Not long after this some of the crew
came down, an 4 though none forced
their company on us we conceived that
it might not be wise to prolong our
confab, and accordingly gave the COOK
a sign and broke up. In 110 great while
afterward the boatswain summoned
us, and we learned that we were pres
ently to be sent into the watches and
report for duty. This was done, and
we found that the captain was chosen
for the first mate's watch, and Mr.
Tym and 1 for the second mate's, or
starboard watch. It seemed that we
had four hours each, continually—
that is, watch and watch.
At four bells Mr. Tym and I were
called, and we left the captain to turn
in (he being weary enough, as indeed,
were we), p.nd repaired to the deck.
CHAPTER IX.
Nothing noteworthy happened dur
ing our watch, little, Indeed, pressing
to be done, and the Spaniards too laey

or too indifferent to set us tasks. I
had Mr. Tym always in my eye, ready
to give him a lift should need be, but
all passed without the call.
That night passed uneventfully, and,
as 1 may as well add, to be brief, so
did the next three days. The weather
held fair, with moderate winds, and
there was nothing to put a strain upon
anyone.
Meanwhile that this time was pass
ing my companions and 1 had come by
a better knowledge of things touch
ing the voyage and the governor's
plans. It seemed we were to make but
one more port before reaching Chugre,
that being a place called Baracoa, in
the eastern part of the island of Cuba.
There the governor was to trai.sact
some business and obtain such fresh
stores as we needed, and thence meant
to fetch straight over for Chagre.
On the morning of the fourth day
after our rescue something of a tari 11-
ing and in part of a dreadful sort hap
pened, and this I shall now proce»d to
detail. Mr. Tym and 1 were lyi'ig in
our hammock*, it being our watch be
low,when I thought I heard some small
stir 011 deck, followed by the bawling
of voices, as though delivering com
mands. I sat up and listened, 'or I
could not guess what was iu the wind,
and as I did so the ship suddenly Legan
to saw up and down.
"What is doing?" queried Mr. Tym,
sitting up in his hammock as I had
done.
"It is passing singular," I said, and
with one mind we rose and sculfetl into
our shoes, having a keen desii'2 to
solve the mystery. In the forecastle
beyond we met the cook, who hat. just
descended the ladder, lie was a little
out of breath, as though from hurry,
and his looks showed something had
happened.
"Hoots!" he cried, without waiting
for us to speak. "We are a' in a peekle.
A buccaneer will be oot yonder."
"A buccaneer!" I cried, in surprise
and joy. "Are you certain? Nay that
is a pickle that is right enough. When
did he heave in sight?"
"lie has been showing a' the watch,"
he answered, "and now we are rising
him fast. Gin ye are e'er sae wal
pleased, ye wad be wise to hide it,"he
added, under his breath.
I was quick to see the wisdom < 112 the
suggestion and returned an answering
nod. "Come, Mr. Tym," I said, in a
lower and soberer key, "let us g« and
have a look at this pirate."
I spoke the word pirate with pur
posed emphasis, knowing that the fel
lows in the watch—most of whom
were now sitting up in their bunks or
slapping about in their bare feet —
would hear, and so far understand me.
"A pirato!" went from one to an
other. The most sluggish bounced out
in a twinkling.
Leaving thecook to finish with them
—or those who would stay to hear—
Mr. Tym and I hastened up the ladder.
Truly enough, the sun was in our
faces, and the I'ilanea wa» driving
eastward, close hauled.
Directly astern, and I guessed now
about four or five miles distant, wi.s
the well-defined canvas of the sup
posed buccaneer. There was no saying
anything about liitn, of course, with
out a glass, and I could merely guess
that he was quite a little smaller than
the Pilanca. We might be raising him,
but of course that would not be ap
parent without longer inspection.
There was no great change in the
weather. The wind had strengthened
a trifle since we went below and there
was more heat! to the seas, but other
wise everything stoo'l nearly the same.
In this part of ifie ship the watch
hung about the braces, as though for
orders, and there was an anxious, sub
dued jabber running round,but no par
ticular confusion.
Aft I found the poop cleared of bright
gowns and petticoats, the prudent old
governor thinking, doubtless, it might
be wise to offer as few allurements as
possible, and in their place were five
or six of the shining, armored guards.
Others of these ting men were dis
posed about the quarter-deck, and, all
told, I guessed the entire company was
on duty. The governor himself, a
somber-lined cloak flung over his gay
attire, was walking to and fro on the
poop, and Capt. Placido was spying with
aglass from the wether mizzen shrouds.
It went grievously against the gov
ernor's pride and that of tly. dons to
run away, but in prudence no other
course seemed open. Besides, the safe
ty of the women was to be considered.
The foe had the ad vantage of a nimbler,
handier-working ship, and doubtless
mustered) an equal or larger crew.
We discussed the matter at some
length, and decided that a great water
castle like the I'ilanea, with relative
ly small sails and bluff bows, must be
inferior at plying, and that some excel
lent trick of seamanship would be need
ed if we were to shake off a fellow like
the buccaneer.
"And jet," added Capt. Sellinger,
"there is ono point In our favor—l
mean in favor of the Tilanca —the wind
is stiffening. Should it continue she
can carry onto beat this fellow, and
may yet escape."
"I conceive," said I, "that we three
should arrange some definite plot or
plan of action. Let us do so while yet
we have the time."
"That I say amen to," said the cap
tain. "Mr. Tym, as your brain is more
fertile than mine, conceive something."
"Let us rather all consider," an
swered the supercargo. "Say that we
do so while this watch lasts, and then
presently confer."
"Agreed," we s;fltl; and in order to
get the use of our thoughts tlio'bet
ter, as well as to avoid suspicion, Mr.
Tym and I (hereupon left the captain
and mingled with the crew.
The Spaniards looked rather more
sourly than usual upon us—which, per
haps, was 110 great wonder—but. noth
ing was said, and we secured a quiet
roost upon the 'midships weather-rail.
Mr. Tym and I did not talk, for when
we w ere not observing the pursuer we
were busy in reflection, and I tried to
forget the chatter behind ni© And tive
dinning along of the vessel while J Hiade
the most of the time.
I confess 1115' brain refused to re
solve anything'—or anything of mo
ment—and it was at hist with some
vexation and doubt of the whole mat
ter that I gave up and jumped off my
perch.
The stronger wind, ns it seemed, was
now helping us, for the sail astern no
longer enlarged, after the former fash
ion. Indeed, 1 thought the Pilanca
was nearly holding her own. Indue
time our watch went on, and till the
other relieved us the supercargo and I
were about the deck.
It was now the time, that we were
to meet to discuss our plans, and ac
cordingly Mr. Tym and I slipped up
from below (where we had pone with
the rest, to seem the more natural) and
joined the captain. II<? had us to the
weather bow, near the fore-deck, where
was no one at the time, and without die
lay we began.
There will be no need to give the full
ness of the talk. In the end we de
cided upon the scheme proposed by
Mr. Tym and slightly amended by the
captain. It was, in brief, that we
should construct a little float or raft,
011 which, as soon as it'became dark,
or it was evident that the Pilanca was
to escape, we should boldly put off.
We could make this cask of odds and
ends to be obtained for us by the cook,
and the launching would be from one
of the 'tween-deck ports.
Our plot laid, the next thing was to
begin to carry it out. The cook, as we
expected, was blithe to help us. In
deed. he seemed, I thought, inclined to
go with us; but presently, as I started
to find out more exactly aboil* it, he
shifted the subject, lie appeared, how
ever, fully enlisted in our behalf.
The materials for our raft being
readily found, were put together.
Four casks were used to form the
ends (it must necessarily be very nar
row, to pass through the port), and all
was made fast with some strong line
and a few nails.

These gems were found in what is
known as the Kettle Moraine of the

One diamond of 1 3-10 carats, one of
1-10 and one third of carat were
found near Butte, Mont., a short time

very beautiful garnets.
On the bars of the Missouri river, in
Montana, sapphires of small size but.
fair quality and good in quantity are
being taken out by companies formed
for the purpose. Several fine beryls
have been unearthed in Maine. In
North Carolina some good specimens
of emeralds have been discovered. To

An officer of the Ilengal lancers, who
was seized by a tigress, owed his escape
to a curious accident. The tigress
seized him by the breast of his coat
and shook him till he became uncon
scious. On recovering he heard a
strange noise at a little distance, as if
somebody was sneezing violently. It
was the tigress herself, lie slowly
turned round and gave a furtive glance
in that direction, lie could hardly be

slinking off with her tail very much
between her legs and sneezing most
violently, and making the most piteous
grimaces. The truth dawned upon him
like a flash of lightning. In the opera

How His Hars Must Tlnjjle.
The sultan of Turkey is most inquisi
tive as to what is said and written
about him abroad. Every day transla
tions are laid before him from the news
papers of the world, and these are all
closely perused. His majesty, by the
way, is a bad hand at suffering. Atone
time he wanted to have an aching tooth
removed, and dared not. Eight slaves
had molars drawn out in his presence
that he might have an opportunity of
judging the extent of suffering entailed,
and finally the sultan decided that he
would rather bear the pain than under
go such an ordeal.
Telephone Wire Thieve*.
For some time past Parisians have
had occasion to complain of defects in
the telephone service. Blame was
officially thrown first on the influenza,
anil subsequently on the disturbance
caused by tunneling for the Metro
politan, but n third explanation is sug
gested by the arrest of a gang of men
who have been stealing telephone wires
for months. Their occupation gave
them access to sewers, and armed with
Insulated nippers, they helped them
selves daily to as much copper wire as
they could carry away.
