CHAPTER II.
Jim knew something of the outside
of Junks, but he was not prepared,
when he went down that night with
his charts, for the confusion of cargo
and coolies and eolllns and day-cooking
Places and other things that littered
the decks. Jim had sense enough to
haul the rudder up a few feet; he knew
that a junk's rudder goes far below
thtoottom and he allowed a foot extra
to Krh-Tze'B estimate of the ship's
depth. Then they staggered out Into
midstream very early, and never had
the city of his birth looked so beautiful
to Jim as when he feared he would not
come hack to see it. lloliur clown Har
den lleaeli he discovered that the junk
would answer to her helm If you put it
Over enough and that she had a fair,
though Oninese. notion of sailing, lie
took chaeRe of the tiller by stationing
three t'hinese on each side of it and
standing a little forward gathered their
pigtails into 'his hands, throv right and
three lift, as though tiiey had bcs'ii the
yoke-lines of a row boat. Krh-Tze al
most smiled at this. He felt he was
getting good cure for his money, and
took a neat polished bamboo to keep
Jiin RakeJ Her with His Spy Mass.
the men attentive, for he said this was
no time to teach the crew pigeon Kng
lish. The mote way they could get on
the junk tlie better would she steer, and
as soon as sin; felt a little confidence in
her Jim ordered the big rustling mat
sails to be hauled up tighter and
tighter. Tie did not know .their names
at least tiny name that would be like
ly to Interest a Chinaman but Krh-Tze
had not banged about the waters of the
Malay archipelago for nothing, and as
he went, he rolled forward with the
bamboo the sails rose like eastern In
cantations. Early as they were on the river a big
American kerosene ship was ahead of
them in tow, and when Jim saw her
through the driving morning mist he
was thankful. She would draw all of
seventeen feet, and if he could steer by
her they would he safe. It is one thing
to scurry up and down the James and
Mary in a pollee-tug without responsi
bility, and quite another to cram a
hard-mouthed old junk across the same
sands alone, with the certainty of a
thrashing lf you came out alive. Jim
glued his eyes to the American and
saw tlvat at Fultah she dropped her
tug and stood down the river under
sail. He all but whooped aloud, for he
knew that the number of pilots who
preferred to work a ship through the
James and Mary' without a tug was
strictly limited. "If U Isn't father It's
Dearsley," said Jim, "and Dearsley
went down yesterday with the Han
coota. If I'd gone homp last night
Instead of going to Pedro I'd have mot
father. He must have got his
ship quick, but father is a very
quick man." Then Jim reflected
that they kept a piece of knotted rope
on the pilot brig that stung like a wasp,
but this thought he dismissed as be
neath the dignity of an olficlatlng pilot
who need only nod his head to sot Krh
Tza's bamboo at work. As the Amer
ican came round, just before the Ful
tah sands, Jim raked her with his spy
glass and saw his father on the poop
with an unllghted cigar between his
teeth. That cigar, Jim knew, would be
smoked on the other side of the James
and Mary, and Jim felt so entirely safe
and happy that he lit a cigar on his
own account. This kind of piloting
was child's piny! His father could not
make a mistake If he tried; and Jim
with his six faithful plg-talls In his two
hands had leisure to admire the perfect
style In which the American was han
dledhow she would point her bow
sprit jeeringly at a hidden bank as
much as to say: "Not today, thank
you, dear," and bow down lovingly
over a buoy as much as to say: "You're
a gentleman at any rate," and come,
round sharp on her heel with a flutter
and a rustle and a slow steady swing
Bomethlng like a woman staring round
a theater through opera glasses. It
was not hard work to keep the junk
near her, though Erh-Tze set every
thing that was by any means settablo
and used the bamboo very generously.
"When they were almost under her
counter and a .little to the left, Jim
would feel warm and happy all over,
thinking of the nautical and pllotic
things he knew. When they fell more
than half a mile behind he was cold
and miserable, thinking of all the
things that he did not know or was
quite sure of. And so they went down,
Jim steering by his father, turn for
turn, over the Maepur bar with the
semaphores on each hunk signaling
the depth of water, through the West
ern Oat and round the Maknaputtl
Lumps and In and out of twenty places
ench more exciting tharn the last, and
Jim nearly pulled the Hix plg-talls out
for pure joy when, the last of the James
and Mary had fallen astern and they
were walking through Diamond harbor.
From there, to the mouth of the Hugll
things are not so bad, at least that
was what Jim thought, and held on till
the swell from the Hay of Ilengnl made
the old Junk' heave and snort and the
river broadened Into an Inland sea,
with Islands only a foot or two high
scattered about It. The American
walked away from the Junk as soon as
they were beyond Kedgeree, and the
night came on and the water looked
very big and desolate, so Jim promptly
anchored somewhere In the gray water
with the Saugor light away off toward
the east, lie had a great respect for
the Hugll and no desire whatever to
find himself on the Caspar sand or any
other little shoal. Khi'-Tze and the
Vrew highly approved of this piece of
seamanship. They set no watch, lit no
lights and at once went to sleep. Jim

lay down between a red and black
lacquer cotlln and a little live pig In a
basket. As soon. as It was light he be
gun studying his chart of the Hugll
mouth and trying to llnd out where In
the river he might be. He decided to
be on the safe side and wait for an
other sailing ship and follow her out.
So he made an enormous breakfast of
rice and boiled lish while Ehr.Tze lit
tire crackers and burned gilt paper
with ostentation. Then they heaved up
their rough and tumble anchor and
made after a big, fat, iron, four-masted
sailing ship heavy as a hay wain. The
junk, which was really a very weather
ly boat and might have begun life as a
private pirate in Annum thirty years
ago, followed under easy sail; und the
four-master would run no risks. She
was In old McKwen's hands and she
waddled about like u broody hen giving
each shoal wide allowances. All this
happened nce.r the outer Flouting Light
some hundred and twenty miles from
Calcutta and apparently In the open
sea. Jim knew old McKwen's appetite
and had often heard him pride himself
on getting his ship to the pilot brig be
tween meal hours, so he argued that if
the l Hot brig was getable (and Jim
himself had not the ghost of a notion
where he would be) McEwen would
Und her before 1 o'clock. It was a
blazing hot day und MoEwen lldgetted
tlie four-master down to Pilot's Hldgo
with what little wind remained, and
sure enough there lay the pilot brig
and Jim felt cold up his back, as Khr
Tze paid him his hundred and twenty
rupees and he went overside In the
junk's crazy dinghee. McEwen was
leaving the four-master In a long slash
ing whale-boat that looked very spruce
and pretty, and Jim could see that
there wus a certain amount of excite
ment among the pilots on the brig.
There was his father, too. The ragged
Chinese gave way In a ragged fashion
and Jim felt very unwashen and dis
reputable when he heard the click of
McKwen's oars alongside, and Mc
Ewen saying: "James Trevor, I'll
trouble you to come along with me."
Jim obeyed, and from the corner of
one eye watched McKwen's angry
whiskers stand up all round his face
like the frill of a royal Bengal tiger,
wliile his face turned purple and his
voice shook.
"An Is this how you break the regu
lations o' the port o' Calcutta? Are ye
aware o' the penalties ye've laid your
self open to?"
Jim said nothing. There was not
very much to say, and McEwen roared
aloud: "Man, ye've personated a Hugll
pilot, an' that's as much to say ye've
personated me! What did yon yellow
heathen give you for an honorarium?"
"Hundred and twenty," said Jim.
"An" by what manner o' means did
ye get through the James an' Mary?"
"Father," was the anwser. "He went
down the same tide and I we steered
by him."
McEwen whistled and choked; per
haps It was with anger. "Made a
stalkin' horse o' your father. Jim, boy,
he'll make an example o' you."
The boat hooked the brig's chains
and McEwen said, as he rolled on deck:
"Von's an enterprising cub o' yours,
Trevor. You'd better put him to the
regular business or one o' these tine
"He's a Resourceful I ad for All That He's
Such an I nllckcd Whelp."
days he'll be acting as pilot before he's
qualified and slnkln' Junks In the Fair
way. If ye've no other designs I'd take
him as my cub, for there's no denyln'
he's a resourceful lad for all that he's
an unlicked whelp."
"That," said Trevor, reaching for
Jim's left ear, "Is something we can
remedy," and he led him down below.
The little knotted colt that they kept
for general purposes on the pilot brig
stung like hornets, but when it was all
over Jim was an unlicked cub no longer.
He was McEwen's property, and a week
later when the Ellora came along he
bundled over side with McEwen's
enameled leather handbag and a roll
of charts and a little bag of his own.

CENSUS LESSONS. '
Tins ruinous Gates of r.astlo Harden Xow
Swing outward.
Robert P. Porter, superintendent of
the lEleventh census, writes In the
Humanitarian: In lli80, the population
under 10 years'of age was a little under
1!7 per cent.; lu 18W, it was only u little
over 24 per cent. This statement may
be put In another way, namely, that
whereas In 18S0 KM) American families,
taken one with tho other, consisted of
505 persons, a similar 100 families at the
present day would on.ly be composed of
UIU individuals. Concomitantly with
this decrease In the home population,
there has been not only a diminution
in the number of immigrants, landing
in the United States, mil the tide has
actually turned, und the gates of Castle
(lardon may now be said to be swinging
outward rather than. Inward.
Among the many causes of this di
minution may be mentioned tho .in
creasing tendency of our population
toward city life. Fifty years ago. In
ISto, out of every l.ontl persons, light y
llve only lived in towns, and !II5 in the
country. Successive censuses show an
Increase in the town population and a
necessarily proportionate decrease of
the country population, until, lu ISWI,
out of every 1,000 souls, ;ioo are now
resident lu cities having a population
of more, than S.000, only 700 being resi
dent lu the country.
The national wealth, made up of real
estate, with Its stock anil Implements,
mines and quarries, with their ma
chinery, railroads, telegraphs, shipping,
canals, and other miscellaneous forms
of tixed capital, is estimated to amount
toslxty-tlvethousand millions of dollars.
While the wealth of the country has
been Increasing, the public debt of all
kinds, whether national, state or mu
nicipal, has declined In the ten years
about one thousand millions of dollars.
In spite of the increase in tenancy, the
actual number of dwelling houses has
Increased at a greater relative rate
than the population. The value of the
piopcrty held by religious bodies has
Increased sixfold since 1S50, while the
number of churches has increased
threefold. The most striking results of
the eleventh census may be summar
ized us follows: A sharp decline in the
birth-rate as a whole, and a distinct
diminution In the raite of Increase in the
negro population; a tendency of the
rural population to migrate into large
towns; an increase in tenant farming,
which increase Is not so much due to
mortgage foreclosure as to the fact ihat
In the middle western states the farm
ers have moved down, and have let
their farms to tenants,

From the New York Times.
The sale of the Metropolitan hotel re
calls a trade by which A. T. Stewart
got the best of Boss Tweed's son u.nd
obtained one of thi historic buildings
in New York. A man of the name of
Kichards built on Fort Washington
heights the only dwelling of Its kind
ever built in America. It was known
as "The Castle," and was built by its
owner to imitate a castle he had seen
In Austria. He died shortly after com
pleting it. and after a few years it
was purchased by the famous William
M. Tweed for $:L'0.000. Tweed and his
associates had laid out very extensive
Improvements In the neighborhood and
a boulevard to run through the sec
tion, which was to cost the city an
enormous sum.
The Castle was directly in the path
of the proposed road, and he expected
to sell the property to the city at an
enormous advance. Before the Wash
ington heights boulevard was complet
ed, Tweed was dethroned, and nearly all
the Improvements he projected fell
through. Then A. T. Stewart, who had
supplied the furniture for the Metro
politan hotel, then run by Tweed's son,
stepped in and made a trade whereby
he secured The Castle for the settle
ment of his claim for the furniture in
the hotel, amounting to about $1:10.000.
Stewart thus obtained the property for
a little over one-third what It had cost
Tweed. Stewart turned the property
over to his partner, William I.lbbey, In
a transaction, und for many years it
was the 'home of that venerable u.nd
only surviving partner of the once fam
ous merchant! prince of the world,
