THE FR I VATF, WAR"
m LOUIS JOSEPH NCE "the
CHArTKlt XXI (Continued)'
GARVIN had muBtered all frand, I found !
the deck was alive with hurrying shapes j
there were calls nnd the rattle of steel,
and dull, heavy thumplngs on the planks
I peered over the side for a short whllft,
but saw nothing beyond a brief stretch of
slate-colored foam nenr the Clymene's water
lino: then strnggled oft and groped my way
to tho nfter twelve-pounder.
The men were loading the weapon, and
laughing nnd Joking. I watched with n
sort of fascination, a little awed by these
warlike preparations. As for the men,
they seemed to tako it for granted that we
wero to fight for our liberty. If It came to
a pinch j nor did they Impress me as at
all averse to the prospect of open wnr.
I dare say they wero old hands at such
scenes; for they took It In n way that
compelled admiration. Only one or two
nnd these the younger men, plainly unsea
soned I 'found casting furtive glances oer
tho rail, with pallid faces and strathed
lips, as though momentarily expectant of
tho apparition of the Asp or the scream
of a shell.
These won my sympathy. I myself was
not happy,
Amtdshlp, Garvin was Instructing a
cluster of men about tho torpedo tube. He,
too, seemed to take It for a certainty that
there would bo fighting; for ho was very
particular, and left nothing essential un
explained or so It seemed to me.
Shortly after, ho went aft to tho other
tubo and Btarted to Instruct Its' crew also.
I lingered a moment, then turned nervously
nwny. As I did so, there canio a hall from
the lookout a frenzied screech;
"Ship ahoy! Dead ahead 1 Port port
f'r yer life 1"
I grasped at tho Intelligence that another
vessel was lying across our bows, and found
myself stumbling forwnrd headlong upon
the slippery deck, my henrt In my mouth
A frantic chorus of shrieks, cries, oaths
ascended from our decks. The men rnn
hither nnd thither, for tho moment, aim
lessly I thought. I blundered Into ono or
two nnd caromed off before reaching my
obJectle point tho bows. A hasty glance
backwnrd toward tho wheel showed mo a
scene of utter confusion, made chaotic to
tho eye by tho swirling reefs of fog that
hung, faintly luminous, over us, magnifying
all things.
But ahead and so near that my heart
seemed to stop entirely for tho Instant
there loomed tho shape of n vessel, so
placed, I thought, that wo wcro surely
doomed to ram her amidships; as big ns a
mountain, to my excited vision bulking
hugo nnd uneadablo nbovo us, riding tho
waves heavily, as with conscious weight
and power.
As In a dream, I saw her long, slaty
sides draw near us so near that I fancied
I could hao touched her with nn oar.
I saw her open portholes, tho cluster of
white faces with protruding eyes that
fringed the rail, tho open mouths of cannon
sliding past, grim and menacing. I even
heard tho roar of commands nnd Impreca
tions that seemed, In a way, to hover over
her and dimly, subconsciously, I recog
nized tho words nnd oaths as German, even
as I got a fugltlvo Impression that tho
faces that for an Instant glared Into mine,
then were lost, were of a Teutonic cast.
For a iM minute, that lingered like an
age, collision appeared lnovltablo. I believe,
that I stopped breathing; I know that I
clutched the rail so fiercely that my hands
ached with the strain of it nftcrwnrd.
But as It passed, the stern of the Bhlp
was for an Inctant large before my eyes.
I saw, and consciously at tho tlmo regis
tered her name, sprawled large Vistula.
V011 mav latch if you will, but I'll swear
that the name, somehow, struck a cold chill
Into my very iltals. I don't know why this
was so; but I distinctly recall clinging to
the rail and shuddering, my gaze fixed as
If fascinated on tho spot where tho word
had appeared.
And then n strange and terrible thing
happened strango and terrible at least to
us. to whom it came utterly without
warning
The bhlp had vanished ccmpletcly ; I my
self was Just ri covering from the shock; our
decks were quieting, ordor was being re
stored. Suddenly the fog was split as If by a
sword of flame; a column of ruddy orange
tire stabbed out from It from the place
where the Vistula had been. A deafening
roar filled my ears, like u clap of heavy
thunder. And tho bolt fell upon our decks.
A ventilator seemed to rlre bodily Into the
air, as though snntched from Its supports by
some tnwslme, giant nana; 11 nung sus
pended, quivering, before my astonished vis
Ion, then abruptly seemed to fall apart,
upllntered Into atoms of metal,
Simultaneously I saw a deep furrow ap
pear, as though turned up by a giant plow,
across the deck. A considerable portion of
the port rail disappeared as If by magic,
with a tremendous tearing and ripping
sound.
There followed nn Instant's silence on the
part of the crew a silence of profound
amazement, v herein our minds strove vain
ly to grapplo with the sickening truth. In
It, a rain of splinters and bits of Iron be
gan to fall upon the decks; and It was

ABOUT LITTLE GIRLS' HAIR
Dear Boys Of course, you know that in tajking to thousands of my Rain
bows. I must not say too much about girls or about boys. It must be boys AND
girls or children.
But today I want to talk to you, because I know the girls will read what
I say if I address my remarks to you. Girls are not half as curious as we
n,.a nn-r nre thiv nt Wlotia. This is merely my opinion.
' I want to ask you boys if any of you ever noticed how beautifully girls
do their hair up in the back! How wonderfully they tie the bows with those
charming ribbons 1
When I had beautiful hair (which left me without PARTING) it was all
I could do to keep it looking like anything, even when I could see it in a
looking-glass.
No wonder I Bit behind some girl and wonder how she does up her wonder
ful hair. ... . ,. ,
Just try doing something to the back of your head and see how hopeless
you are!
What wonderful things girls are J
"slick up" something one cannot see,
I think it is nice once in a while to tell a girl how nice her hair looks.
So your kindness for today is to tell some girl how nice her hair looks.

ended by n sudden and terrible shriek of
mortal agony
Dumfound?J, I started forward a paco or
two, then stopped ns If myself shot, staring
with terror at tho sight that lay beneath
my eyes of a Thing, that had been Man,
a mnss of disjointed nnd Bundered parts,
fouling the detks for ynrds about with tho
huo of blood.
Beyond, thero lay another, less awfully
mutilated, still living nnd filling tho air
with heart-rending moans. I could not look
that way I merely knew that it was there.
With an effort I wrenched myself away,
staggering back to tho rail, thero to lean
over nnd look down Into th sllmv oily,
crawling sea, my nerves terribly njangle.
Dull, I heard yet another report. Some
how It seemed moro distant and tho shot
appeared to extend Itself harmlessly. At
any rato, If It struck us, I had not Btrength
to turn to see what damage It might have
created. I was very III.
Tho fog was lifting. Ahead lay nn end
less waBte. tho color of blued Btccl, darken
ing with tho gathering shades of evening
The early winter night was Bhroudlng tho
horizon with sablo curtains, but within the
amphitheater of tho seas a Ilttlo light still
hold tenaciously.
Far to port I saw again tho white, ghost
ly shape of tho Myosotls and, ns I looked,
her lights wero down. But It was not with
her that I was now concerned ; my Interest
lay not In tho safety of my Heart's Desire
of that I was assured, tho distance be
tween us was bo great ; It was not our own
lives; and my gaze went nstern, seeking
tho Asp nnd that ship, named tho Vistula,
which had used us so evilly.
They wero following that I saw at once.
Tho Asp, as nearly as ono could say, camo
plunging on dend nstern and seemed to
hnvo lost In tho race. I Judged her two
miles distant. The Vistula was far nearer.
Less than a mile lay between her prows
nnd our stern post. As I looked a tongue
of flamo leaped out from her bows and
something sped, singing, to port
"A twelve-pounder," Sovranco declared
Judicially.
I dare surmlso that I turned a blanched
nnd frightened countenance upon him ; I
remember clutching his arm.
"Tony!" I cried. "In God's name, man,
what does It mean?"
"It means that wo'ro up against It, Gor
don to adopt one of your pet American
Isms," ho roturned with an unconvincing
attempt at lightness His own features were
gay with apprehension, his llp3 drawn thin
and tonse.
"It means," ho translated moro serious
ly, "that wo are hounded by both Britain
and Japan there!"
I turned In tlmo to catch a flash of light
from the Asp's bows. Some time afterward
tho report came' to our cars.
"It means." said Sevrance, "that we
have tho choice of hauling to nnd sur
rendering, or being riddled by those de
Btroyers, my boy. God knows how that
Jap got Into these waters, but there Bho la !"
"Jap!" I echoed. "What under heaven,
Tony "
"That boat that fired upon us that's
what I mean," he retorted Irritably. "She's
Japanese."
"She's not "
"Take the glasses and look at her flag,
then." ho cried Impatiently. "What do you
know nbout It, anyhow?"
MWny but. Tony, ls 'Vistula a Japanese
word namo?"
"What's that got to do with It. man?
Vistula'? No ; that's German, of course "
"But that ship fs the Vistula, Tonyl I
saw It lettered on her stern "
"Vistula!" interrupted Garvin. "But the
Sevrance seized me by the shoulders.
"Gordon," he cried, shaking me roughly,
"what are you saying, man? Do you un
derstand? Are you sane? That ship '."
"I am perfectly sane quite competent."
I expostulated, "I saw the name as sho
sheered off, when we were near running
her down. I was standing up there. In
the bows "
"By Ood!"
Sevrance stared blankly Into my eyes.
"German!" he repeated, wetting his lips.
I call anybody wonderful who con
ested In those babies when I nm not Inter
ested In them"
"You are -very wise," replied Mrs. Gi
raffe. "I wish my husband -was on the
board of something, but it, Is yery ex
pensle. It costs $109 to be one of the
governors of the Babies' Hospital and "
"What! You say flOO? You Ju wait
until I see my husband. You say $100?
Well, well! Where did he get it?"
And with that Mrs. Elephant started back
home.

"The Vistula I" He shooK nls head. "The
Japanese flag Is, then, merely a blind "
Garvin struck In, throwing his remark
to us oVer his shoulder, as ho stood facing
nstern, his eyes on tho Vistula.
"Mr. Traill's right, sir," he said. "That's
tho boat. I thought I'd seen those lines
somewhere before, gentlemen. I remember
her now saw her launched nt Wllhelms

got about as much ehanco of getting nway

Sevrance looked nt me, shaitlng his head
thoughtfully. 'Tho devil to pny, Gordon I"
he snld, "Tho devil to pay!" A sudden
flash of comprehension Illuminated his eyes,
"Do you think Gordon do you think?"
I nodded, knowing that ho had Von Holz
born In mind' "He's quite capable."
Tho Vistula fired again, and the projectile
clipped very closo to Us, I remember
agucly hearing a chorus of excited com
ment from the men.
I caught Garvin's eye, heavy with mean
ing; I looked down the deck and saw the
mon standing nt quarters a warlike sight,
In n way, as thoy waited attentive and ready
by tho guns and tubes, and ono that Bent
tho hot blood hammering Into my temples.
I nodded agreement to Garvin,
"Tony, you remember what you Bald a
bit bnck while we were down thero In the
cabin?"
Soranco shook his head. 'What?" ho
asked Indifferently,
'That you'd not hesitate n mlnuto If jou
had n German boat to deal with, Instead
of a British when wo were considering
resisting tho Asp, you know?"
Ho seemed to Jump suddenly from In
decision to decision. "You'ro right!" ho
cried eagerly. "We'll Iene tho Asp out of
tho question for the tlmo being. It Is a
German boat, now, and by tho Eternal, Gor
don, we'll give her a Bkln full of flght If
sho persists!"
I could almost have fancied our words
overheard by tho Germans, or that their
glasseo had shown them Sevrance's clenched
nrst as ho turned and brandished defiance
of the Vistula.
"If it's war you want," ho cried, "you'll
have your All of It, my friends!"
And on tho Instnnt, twin Bpurts of flamo
leaped from tho Vistula's bow guns. Ono
of our boats swung far out on tho davits
and collapsed like a crushed eggshell. Tho
rain of splinters, fortunately, proved harm
less. Garvin sprang to tho after torpedo-tube,
whoso crow stepped asldo respectfully to
givo mm way. with eager hands, he
clutched the firing mechanism then turned,
with shining eyes and excitement visible
In the quivering of his limbs.
"D'ye mean that, Mr. Sevrance, sir?" he
cried "Shall wo reply?"
"Reply? Instantly!" roared Sevrance,
exalted with rage.

THE steamship Sirdar was caught in a typhoon
and wrecked on a desert island in the China Sea.
The only survivors were Iris Deane and "Jcnks," the
steward. Jenks was not what he seemed. Iris
Deane quickly discovered it. What happened to the
two on the island is the theme of a delightful story,
"The Wings of the Morning," by Louis Tracy, which
begins in Saturday's Evening Ledger.
