a woman iu the
; street, act. on the impulse to
turn
ana iuiiow cer, ana in tbat one
thoughtless moment shapes the desti
ny of bis future life. Tbe Captain,
seeing the canoe on tbe beach, acted
on a similar impulse when be took
the paddle and shaped Lis reckless
course for tbe tabooed island.
Reaching tbe shore while it was
still dark, he did one sensible thing
he hid tbe canoe so tbat it might not
betray h'm when daylight came.
That done, he waited for the morn
ing on tbe outskirts of tbe forest.
The trembling light of dawn re
vealed tbe mysterious solitude around
him. Following the other limits of
the trees, first in one direction, then
in another, and finding no trace of
any living creature, be decided on
peatrating to the interior of the is
land. He entered the forest.
An hour of walking brought him
to rising ground. Continuing the
ascent Le got clear ot the trees, and
stood on the grassy top of a broad
cliff which overlooked the sea. An
open hut was on the cliff. He cau
tiously looked in and discovered tbat
it was empty. Tbe few household
utensils left about, and the simple bed
of leaves in a corner, were covered
with fine, sandy dust. Night birds
flew blundering out of inner cavities
ia the roof and took refuge ia the
shadows f.-omjthe forest below. I; was
plain that the but had bee a uninhab
ited for some time past.
Standing ia the open doorway and
considering what he should do next,
the Captain saw a bird flying toward
him ot the forest. It was a turtle
dove, so tame that it fluttered close
up to bim. At the same moment the
sound of iweet laughter became aud
ible among the trees. His heart beat
fast ; he advanced a few steps, and
stopped. In a moment more the
nymph of the island appeared, in her
; white robe, ascending the cliff in pnr
I suit of ber truant bird. She saw bim,
' and suddenly stood still, struck mo
, tioaless by tbe amazing discovery
that had burst upon ber. Tbe Cap

percbed oa her shoulder as she gave

Tbe Captain's arm held her tenderly

solitudes of tbe forest. And then tbe
dove fluttered before them, a winged
messenger cf love cooing to his
mate.
VI.
Tbe night bod come, and the Cap
tain had not left the island. Aimala's
resolution to send him away ia the
darkness was a forgotten resolution
already. She had left bim persuaded
ber that he was ia no danger so Ion?
as he remained in tbe hut on tbe cliff;
and she had promised at parting to
return to him, while the priest was
still sleeping, at the dawa cf day.
He was alone ia the hut The
thought of the innocent creature
whom he loved was sorrowfully as
well a3 tenderly present to his mind.
He almost regretted his rash visit to
tbe island. "I will take her with me
to England," he said to himself.
"What do I care for the opinion of
the world ? Aimata shall be my
wife."
The intense heat oppressed him.
He stepped out oa the cliff toward
niidni?bt. in search of a breath of
air. Tbe first shock of earthquake
(felt ia tbe ship while she was inside
tbe reef) shook the eround he stood
on. He instantly thought of the vol
cano on the main island. Had he
been mistaken in supposing the cra
ter to be extinct ? Was the shock ot
earthquake that he had just felt a
warning from tbe Tolcano, communi
cated through a submarine connec
tion between tha two i.!and3 ? He
waited and watched throagh the
hoars of darkness with a vague sense
of apprehension, which was not to be
reasoned away. With the first rays
of daybreak he descended into the
forest, and saw the lovely being
whose safety was already precious
to him as his own, harrying to meet
him through tbe trees.
She waved her hand distractedly,
as sb,e approached, hico. "Go j'1 she
cried ; "jro away in your canoe be
fore the island ia destroyed !"
He did bis best to quiet her alarm.
Was it the shock of an eartquake that
bad frightened ber ? It was not on
Ir tbe shock ot an carbonate, it was
something more om'nous still which
had followed the shock. Ihere was
a lake near the temple, the waters of
which were supposed to be neated
by subterranean fires. The lake bad
risen with the earthquake, had bab
bled far'oasly, and then melted away
in the night Her father, viewing the
portent with horror, bad gona to tbe
cape to watch tbe volcano on the
main island, and to implore, by pray
ers the sacrifices, the protection of
tbe gods. Hearing this, the Captaia
entreated Aimata to let him see the
emptied lake, in the abscence of the
priest She hesitated : bat bis inCa-; islanders were on tbe alert (in super

One . f the boats was lowered into!
ihe water under commaud of tbe
second mate, who had taken the
"bearings" of tbe tabooed island by
daylight. Four of tbe men were to
go with him, and they were all to be
well armed. Mr. Dnacalf addressed
his final iD?tructions to the officer in
the boat
"Yon will keep a lookout with a
lantern ia the bows. When yon get
a-nigh tbe island, and will lire a gun
and sing out for the Captain "
"Quite needless," iaterposed a
voice from the sea. "The Captaia is
here!"
Without taking the slightest no
tice of the astonishment be had
caused, the Captain paddled his
canoe to the side of the ship. In
stead of ascending to the deck of tbe
Fortuna, he stepped into tbe boat.
"Lend me your pistols," he said
quietly to tbe second officer, "and
obliga me by taking your mm back
to tbeir duties on board." lie looked
up at Mr. Duncalf, and gave some
further directions. "If there is any
change in the weather, keep the ship
standing off and on, at a safe dis
tance from the land; and throw up
a rocket from time to time to show
your position, hxpect me on board ;
asain by sunrise." i
"What !" ctied the mate. "Do you
mean to say yoa are going back to
tbe island ia that boat all bv your
self?" T am going back to the island,"
answered the Captain, as quietly as!
ever, "ia this boat all by myself."!
