Nojngo to Corca. As soon as he "Gull"
Is out at sea the Anicrlc ms appear and tho
Chinese nro Imprlsonul below. All these
procautlons ntc In vain, however, for by
tho next day Captain IWynor Is Mitlt-Ilcd
that a swift junk tint H folohvlng them
Is none other thin that of Wong-Lot. Cap
tain lUymir elcoldes to bring tho brig
nbout In tho wind to wait for tho Junk.
When tho latter has overtaken the brig, a.
bout puts off fiom the Junk There nro
three n.n In It and theic Is nothing nbout
them to indicate pliates, but Captain Hay.
1101 Is pusltlve that tho one. who comes
nboanl to bpeak to hint Is tho famous
Wong-Lee himself,
TAUT II.
Captain Itnymir could speak tho Chi
nese latiKtinfei' like a native, anil tho
convci nation, between him and 'Woiig
Leo was held In that tongue.
'I nm s-ony to trouble you," hesan
the lli.ite, as tho captain advanced,
"but I have loht mv mate and three
men. Last night at midnight "io honid
some one hall from the water, and a
boat was low tied to the rc-cuo. A sud
den simnll came up and the junk wn-
tiilven ua, I think the boat must
hae been picked up when daylight
came."
"He lies, of coutre," said Capt. llay
nor to me ns he Inteipieted the state
ment, "but we must appear to swallow
him whole."
Thin turning1 to Wong-Leo he ex
pressed his legietM at the loss of the
men and his hopes that they had been
picked up. We hadn't been anything
of them, but otlur crafts weio s-alllng
to and fro. We weie m short-handed
and the men were so busy that a poor
lookout had been kept. He compli
mented the man on the spoort of his
junk and tin way she was handled, mid
boldly stated that our baik was going
down the Gulf of Slam to take out cai
go from a wteiked mi ichantman. It
was p'aln by tho twinkle In Wong-Lee's
eyes that lit didn't believe it, but he was
a good dissembler. Ho exptcsseil a
cuil alty to look the ship over. Wo
Knew little his game, but were ready
foi it He had a glass of wine In the
cabin and mndo good use of his eyes,
but not a w canon did he see He en
tend the foiecasile with the escuso
that he wanted to constiutt one for the
Junk but his Idea was to discover If
tin n was a watch off duty below. He
was aboard for a full half-hour, and

thanks He was hound for tho north

"The smiling, deceit ul old repro

in vor. She would probably have fifty
or sixty men nboard, with muskets,
cutlnssis and stlnk-pots, and If she
once got alongside we should have our
woik cut out for us. The Celestials
met with In America nre not flghteis,
but the man who nigucs that tho Chi
namen at home, and especially tho
mnrlncis, won't fight nml light des
peiatcly knows mile about them. That
same Wong-Lee onre attacked a
French conetto canylng eighteen
guns and two hundred men, and
though ho had only seventy men be
hind him, ho c.tmo near making her a
piise. AVo should hnve been a fool-i-h
lot of men to think of lighting the
Junk except ns a last resoit. Oui
object was to dodge her, nnd we went
about It at once. L'veiy sail which the
balk could canv was sptead, and for
a time wo were leaving her behind.
When we weie about live miles ahead,
however, sho began to hold her own.
As the wind was light no great tun
was made dining tho day, and at sun
set, having obtained our westing, tho
bnik was headed for the south. If
tho junk was bound for the northern
I'hllllplnes she would still hold to her
west. To our suipilse she did so, but
here again Wong-Lee was not sharp
enough to fool a Yankee sailor. He
went off on his course so slowly that
we knew he must bo dragging a
bunch of spars astern, and the crafts
were not over seven miles apart when
daikness closed down.
Just then we had a racket aboard.
The pilsonerb in the hold got to quar
reling, and when I went down to quiet
them t found that one had loosened his
bond-, and nearly killed a companion.
Tho assaulted man asked to be taken
to tho captain, nnd when his request
was compiled with he said:
"I am no pirate, but an honest man.
Three ot the men below aro pi
rates, and one Is a brother of Wong
Lee. They knew that the money wai
to go In the bark. That junk we saw
astern this morning Is after tho money.
We weie to get loose tonight nnd light
j ou and make signals to the junk. Two
of us would not join, and Wong-Leo's
bi other has given me a beating"
Tho man was as earnest It was de
cided to release his companion and
make use of tho two, while the pliates
were doubly secured. We went away
to tho south with all lights out and
two points off our course, and had the
biee.e held we should like have seen
tho last of tho pliatlcal Junk. Nut It
did not hold. At about 11 o'clock It be
gan fining down, and at midnight we
were becalmed and enshiouded in a
fog. Wo might calculate that the
Junk had changed It3 com he und head
ed after us as soon ns night fell, nnd
that iho was now not over live miles
away. Our first move after losing
steerage way was to stow every sail
and haul taut the yards. That Wong
Lee's Junk carried sweeps was a sure
thing, and It was Just as ceitaln that
he had taken our bearing and would
come pulling down In seaieh for us.
The fog and the calm were to his great
advantage, and we were a pretty sober
lot uf men as arms weie served out
and we wire distributed the length of
the ship. It was understood that wo
would do our best to repel boaulers,
and that If overpowered we should re
tieat to tho cabin and hold out ns long
as possible with this necessity In
view we watered nnd provisioned tho
place, and some planks wero got out
of the hold to form barricades. Tho
released Chinamen bald they wero anx
ious for a fight with the Junk, but the
two Malas wero detailed to watch
them und give orders to cut them down
at the first sign of treachery. This
1 rccaution was well taken. Much as
we had come In contact with tho
heathen, our captain didn't know the
extent of their cunning.
At about half-past one o'clock with
the fog so thick that you had to touch
a niun to seo him, and with tho sea
perftctly cjlm, wo heard tho noise of
sweeps, and the junk was pulled past
us ut the dlBtancfl of a biscuit's toss.
That she shaved us close wo could tell
by feeling a movement of tho air, and
by tho ripples from her sweeps break
lug against our sides, Sho shot on for
perhaps half i mile, and then turned
and caino back. Wong-Leo knew our
position within half a mile, and ho
was going- to take chances ot plumping
Into us in the fog, Tho Junk passed us
a bit further away this time, and just
as eho got opposite both Chlnamen.who

started to hall, I say started, for the
Malays wore closo at hand, and tho
first notes weie only uttered when the
Chinamen lay In a heap. The cry, such
qs It was, ijjuBt hnve reached th Junk,
ns tho sweeps stopped work for a mo
inent, but hearing nothing further she
continued her search. It has always
seemed to me that tho Junk didn't
run us aboard, She passed and re
passed us at least eight times, and
once sho eamo so neur that wo thought
her sweers would Htrlke tho bark. Af
ter pulling back and forth for a couple
of houis uhc niado off to the south, and
by and by passed out of hearing. An
hour Inter there was a little breezo
aloft. Our upper palls felt It, but down
on deck thcro was1 not enough nlr to
us nlong for six or fceven miles: before
clnyllqht rnme and we got real wind,
but to our disgust tho Junk was In
plain view In tho north, und not over
live miles away. As there were hnlf a
dozen other walls In sight we had no
fear of her, and knowing that lcceptlnn
would no longer avull us we put tho
bark's head on a true course for Sara
wak. All day long the junk hung In our
wake, neither gaining nor losing, nml,
to our disgust, the wind began to fine
llaro a candle. This breeze sneaked
down again as the sun went out of
sight. While thote was no nppearance
of a fog, the night promised to be a
dark one. Wo made as leady as could
be when the daikness came, and us
soon ns we lost sight of the Junk wo
hauled up to the west by live uolnts.
Wo kept a breeze until midnight, giv
ing us nbout three knots an hour, and
kuHs ojo.u ot.im u3not 'sn ijsi -ji uat
that "... T.dlm would not last long.
We had had a man aloft with the glass
for three hours, but he had not once
made out the junk. At a quaiter to
twelve ho still reported nothing In
sight, but half an hour later, as the
bark was lazily rising and falling on
the ground-swell, the pirate suddenly
appealed, coming up astern and close
aboard. The lookout aloft had piob
ably fallen asleep. The Junk was be
ing moved by her sweeps, and theie
was Just lime to cull' the men sleep
ing on deck when she ran ua aboaid
on the poit-quarter. Such yells and
shouts ns the pirates uttered would
have made a band of Indian wan lots
envious, and they had men ready In
the rigging with stink iots, and oth
ers with grappling lions. The Chinese
stink pot Is an open Iron pot filled with
some honible smelling compound, and
curnlng for about ten minutes. The
odcis given out will prostrate a man
almost as quick as a bullet. We knew
they would come, and one of the Ma
la s was detailed to look out for them
a in kick them oveiboard.
As the crafts came together about
forty pirates atempted to board us.
Hvery man of us except the Malay
open file nnd If we had had only the
junk to deal with I am suie wo could
have beaten her off. Wong-Lee had a
card up his sleeve, however. He low
ered two boats, filled them with men,
and, whllo we weie bravely holding our
own, they boarded us on the starboard
bow and came runnlg aft. We had two
men down nt the time, both dead, nnd
a third badly wounded. Hveryone saw
they were to many for us, and nt the
call of the captain there was a precipi
tate retreat to the cabin. When we
came to count noses we found our
selves live shoit. The one aloft was
still up there, and we knew two were
dead. The missing two were Malas,
and from their desparato manner of
lighting we had little doubt that they
also lay dead on the deck. We were
thus i educed to nine men, and while we
weie cooped up in the cabin the pirates
had possession of the decks. We ex
pected them to make a rush at the
dnois, but no such movement came.
They first cleared the decks of the
dead, heaving each body into the sea,
and then we felt the Junk working her
way ahead until dear of us. No shots
vvero fired at us, and for a moment we
were puzzled to know what the fellows
wero nt. Then wo suddenly felt the
bark heel to a bieeze, followed by a
Jerk and a tug, and Captain Itaynor
glow led out:
They've got our tow lope aboaid the
Junk, a prize ciew on board bote, and
we are bound tor old Wong-Leo's head
quarteis! Hy daylight he'll have us
among tho Islands to tho west, and we
might as well ?ny good-bye to each
other right now!"
We had all plain satl on tho bark,
and tho pirate In charge appeared to
know how to handle her, but the Junk
sailed tho faster and kept tho tow
rope taut. Wo could hear the fellows
moving about on deck, and, though
thby made no effort to get nt us, wo
were In a btate of expectancy every mo
ment till daylight finally broke,
