Tills was a little mmo than I had bar gained for As I stood on the misty ili-clv it cnine homo to me thut thu 13n tciinlye was not only cuiijing warlike Btoies for the Cuban lebels, but also a pait) of men to Join theli Links 1 had been ery leady to necept what llsk theie mlsrlit lie In tutus to turn the Spanish Hank and see something of the war fiom tho Uulun point of -slew, but now It oicutieJ to mo lather forcibly what if vve should be captured? I toilless that, for the moment, visions of a speedy coiirt-inuiUttl followed by an e'qunll) speedy execution, in whkli I inlght beai a pium'nent if not aKiee.ible pait stood out with nmuliig; clearness against the Marditrroutiil ot misty cloud into which we seemed to be plunging with eei liietf"iin:r speed. Aftei all, theie was some comfort In that. The Untoipiio, if that weie In deed In r urine, was e idently a smait vessel, and it was mote than likely she would euti) us salcly thiough. The visions of captuie, tilal and speedy ex ecution, which mj ac(iualntiince with Spanish methods In Cuba had made veiy life like, faded away, and gave place to almost holiday ipeilences among the lebels, Lucked by a plctuie still mine attiadKe of the time when I should find my way by home means into Havana. This mtant for me a ctitaln house In the subuibs, whtie I could almost see ejes that gtew' bilghtei, If that v eie possible, ut my cunilng How lone my reverie had lasted, I can baldly guess, but it was intetiupt nl by the sound of a footstep which I ltcognied as that ot my late compan ion, und in another moment he came tip to me. 'A line night for us," se said, iltjly, "but haidly so irood for enjoying a v'iew." I turned lotincl so as tv get a better Idea of his appeal an eeby the light of the bolitiiy lamp, as I replied: Not much :isic of our being uvei hauled, I suppose, is theie?" 'Not much hereabouts, anyhow," lie bald, with a soit ot chuckle, which lin piessed me tin fnvoi ably. The lamp light shone on his lace, and gave me, for the fust time, an oppoitunity of funning a clear impiession of its fea tutes and explosion. It was a hand some face, ceitainly, with good fea tuies, bright, dnik eies and a iiulck, nleit air that He piomibe of Intelli gence and piomptltude. His skin was swat thy, tliousn haidly moie than ux posuie at sea. to tioplcal suns might easily account f jr, and his hair, which Mas bhoit, was black in appeal ance. On the whole, a face that might be long to a gallant sailor, and one likely to command he favor of women, with out lorfelting the confidence of men. The thought pa-ssed thiough my mind in a moment that his laugh was the Moist of him, and then I dismissed the impiession it had made. I suppose theie's a good chance of Ik lng o.-i hauled in Cuban waters?" I paid. He hluugged his shouldeis, though -very slightly, and again he gave tho same curious chuckle as he itplled, carelessly: "Oh, I guess there's ilskb. Most of us are paid for thut, I leckon. Anjhow, ou can make ouiself comfoi table In the mean timewe'll not sight a Spaniuid for thli t -six houis. "in that case I think I'll go below," hnid I. "I bhould like to see all theie Is to be seen when the time comes" "All light, sir. I'll bee you get the chance; and you'll be all the moie lit if J ou turn in now." I went below, and making the best of things, found my wa to the stufly little beith pointed out to me by the black stew aid. Oui vojage was pleasant for the next two dajs, and I improved my ueiiurtlnt nntewlth my oiiginul companion, who occupied, I dlscoveied, the position of second olllcei on boatd the Enterprise IT WAS A HANDSOME TACE CER TAINLY. Ho was, I found, excellent company, nndhad the additional lecomniendatlon that he knew many people and places In and about Havana that weie fumll lni to me. Ho also knew the coust well, and I moie than suspected that it was rathei on this account, than uny other, that lie occupied Ills pietent position on boaid. He beemed well dis posed to 'cultivate my acquaintance, and talked veiy frankly to me In le turn, and It was from him I learned that we weie giving all the islands a wide beith, Intending to reach the southeastern toast of Cuba as if fiom Jamaica. Thl, of com be, meant a longer tiip, but for borne reason it fceemtd to be piefened by those in c liaige. It was on tho third day out, and the afternoon was well udvanced, when liiy friend Thompbon told mo that at last we were heading for our destin ation. H had been by far the most dlbgieeablu day of the voyage. The weather was slngulaily hot and op pi essive, and tho sun was going down in an angiy, coppery haze. Wo had only twice sighted other vessels dm lng the day, und both of these were caigo n y OR . CUBA LIBRE, f by Hugh II. Lusk steamers flying the Utltlsh ling I looked aiound the hoi Iron, us Thomp son gave me the Information that by leckonlng we weie only some thlitv llve miles fiom our destination, and re plied: "Well, we've been in luck m) fai, and I suppose we should get ashore by moinlng I don't eate how soon we do; Hint sunset lenilnds me of one or two wild nights I can lemem bei In Havana." I thought Thomp son cast lather an anxious glance lound the hoilzon for a moment befoie he answered. "Yes," he said, "It's going to blow, but we'll lie snug enough in the bay we'ie heading for now, unless it blows a hurilcane." He took another look lound us as he spoke, and then went foiward to whete the c aptalu and chief olllcer w ere stand ing talking. Jly remark about the rORGING SLOWLY AHEAD weather had been only a sudden' thought, suggested by the look of the sunset at the moment, but now it seemed to me tl.at the seamen them selves shaicd the impiession. For the last hour or two, the sttamei, although going bteadlly, had ev Idently not been at her full sped, but now I noticed that, as if in consequence of what passed at the Intel view between the otllcers, almost Immediately the speed was Inci eased. I stood and watched the sun sink slowly to the sea line, then dip into the ciimson watei, and then, at last, as if with a plunge, go out of sight, throwing up into the sky a wild halo of misty lights, like some vast volcano In ei notion. I should hav e stayed on deck, but piesently Thompson came along, and advised me, in l fiiendly way, to go below anil get some bupper. "You'll want it befoie morning, I guess," he sal J, "whether theie's a btoiin oi not." "You expect one, then'" I asked, as I follow td him down the companion stalls ' "Expect It? Well, es, we'ie sure of wind, but it mav not be much befoie we get In. We ought to bo up with the land in two houis" He spoke setlous ly, and I felt ure he, was moie than usually glad that we weie not far fiom a place of safety. It did not seem to affect Thompbon's appetite, however, for he made a hearty meal, a peifonnance which It was hard to Imitate. I found myself listening anxiously for the flist sound of the wind, and I could hardly avoid a stait at eveiy noise that came down to us fiom the deck oveiliead, ab if It Indi cated the beginning of a huiilcane. Nothing alaimlng happened, however. My companion was In no huny to fin ish his meal, and I didn't caie to show my uneasiness by leaving him. When at bust I i cached the deck it was daik. As jet tlie wind had not come up, but eveiy now and then I could heai a long, low moan, like that of some huge wounded creatine sighing out his pain foi down below tho hoilzon The ves sel was ploughing her way thiough the heaving ocean, ind to my fancy she seemed to pant in her eagerness to i each hoi haibor befoie thestoim came on It appealed aa if we should accom plish it, too. The time slipped away, minute by minute, ns I held on by tlie btaunchlon and watched the sea und sky. Tlie moan of the coming wind, Indeed, grew more persistent and loud, as it crept after us ovei the black ocean, but still it had not leached us, and now we were neaiing the land Giadually something giew out of the mist. It was only a vague, formless shadow at first, but moment by mo ment it giew distinct and definite it was tho land," We were not far off now, and If only wo had calculated oui couise conectly we should bo in shelter befoie the stoim could leach us. It was a near thing. I listened to the inci easing note of thut sttange, dlsmnl moan that ciept over the com plaining sea, and as I did so I turned alwavs more anxiously to the shadowy coast on which we weie lushing at such a headlong pace. Yes, we would leach it now. Even In thut gray half light tlie high land was taking foim and substance we could not be fai off. And now an order was given, and suddenly I realised that our speed was dying away. It was Just then I fe)t the Hist of the storm. It came w 1th a quick gust on my cheek, and at the bame moment tlujte was a new tone in tho wind It had been a moan, so far, but now it was rising to a loai, though Its stiength had not i cached us yet thank heaven, I felt the ship swing round to the motion of the helm, we were entering the bay. At thut moment It came! Theie was a quick Hash through the mist ahead, und then a loud loai that swelled and lolled in long, reverberations ajalnst the face of the hills It was a cannon. A quick older In the captain's hoarse voice was followed by the leveise ac tion of the strew, as we strove to stop her vvrty. A few moments of Intense, wild expectation, rind then another v Ivld Hash, followed by another re echoing roai, and It seemid to me as I stialned my eyes that I could see thiough the darkness the outline of a large vessel, with lofty mnsts and tow ering sides, forging Flowly ahead "hut of the shadow. Not an Instant was lost. The EnterpilKe swung lound sl lentlv In tho diiectlou opposite to Hint in xv lilt li I had seen that shadow, and again the quick tlnob'of the sciew' told me thut we were making for the open sea In prefeience to facing the guns of a Spanish man-of-war. Till then I had foi gotten the storm. The gicaloi und more unc.Xtioited dangci had banished tho othei nt leasti for the moment. My eyes, and I suppose the ejes of eveiy other soul on boaid, weie watching eageily for the next Hash, or the appearance of out Span ish eneinv It came at lust; this time nut one, but .three, and witli the nun there was n hiss and a scieam, that passed wide of us Indeed, but mnde me shi Ink instinctively at my Hist expel -knee of vat. Nothing had stiuck us, howevei, and we lushed pantl.ig on our couise All ot hoi minute, nil 1 'e emeiged fiom Hie shelter of the wooded point which Thompson had told me would enable us to lie sung while we dlschuiged, even If It blew half u luuilcane It was doing that now, I thought, as we weie caught in the lleice sweep of the wind, and In n moment hail exchanged one kind of danirer lor'anothei. The stoim had come up luting the few minutes we had been In shcltei, and alieady we weie In the midat of a confusion cf seething, leaping waves that lOoe as EWSS tlimHH OUT Or THE SHADOW. if by magic. The vessel faced it bravo 1, but I did not believe that she could make much piogiobs The wind iushed howling atiobs the deck and momen torlly swept 3h-is of spiny over ev ei j thing. I stood and held on by the stauncliton, but neaily eveivbody else took lefuge below. And so it went on. Fot a time, we had heuid the lepoits of the cannon, but they had died away behind us, oi weie lost in tlie loai of wind and sea atound. Still we stiug gled on We must have been battling for houis against w ind and sea, though no doubt m fancy exnggeiated the time, when suddenly theie lose out of the cloud In fiont a thientening bhad ow. Could It be land? At the veiy moment when I saw It a daik ilguie ciapt along the deck undei the shcltei of the bulwaik. and 1 lec-ognls-ed Thompson. I pointed to tlie black shadow ahead, but did not tiy to speak, as It seemed useless in the liot of the stoim He stopped bc-bide me; he put Ills lips to my ear and bhouted the woids. 'Only live minutes mote stick close to nw!" I understood him. TO BE CONTINUED. UAiumom: or ax r..Mpr,itou. Kaiser William's Is Prolinlil the .Host i:tciisiio in the H orld.

He told the story thus: Once when we w ere living on the fai in a man came along anil wanted t bu a certain cow. I offered him another, but nothing would do but the one he had pointed out. Then 1 told h'm that that ccw vvps one 1 had given to m wife and that I could not sell it without h i consent 'Well," said the man, "wouldn't she sell the eow ?"
