AHenry! !" exclaimed the old man, earn
estly, "this is downright foolishpess. Ye
can't help US by stayin'; and two'n be
enough If wust comes to wust."
"John Norton" returned the, young
man, solemnly, "say no more, I shall stay
with you and the lad. II we live, all
will live. If we die, we win die togeth-
er, for will not leave you"
"Beit as you say, then, boy yin, let it

Lightning il scarce quicker than WI
the motion Of Herbert, as be darted for
ward into the smoke, which was rolling
up in great volumes from the front part
of the boat. ass
BY this time the forward half Of the
vessel was almost one sheet of flame. "A
column Of FIRE rose out of the forward
hatch fifty feet into the air, but was mer-
cifully blown onward by the force of the
gale. From this the trapper and the lad
were at least safe, but the flames were
now breaking over all restraint. The
deck itself was being burnt through, and
sections were falling into the hole. The
stanchions and the timbers of the bull.
warks were already in full blaze. The
outer edges Of tho upper deck were cir

house had begun to kindle. The flames
we're already eating their way toward the
stern and would soon be in the rear of
the, two men who were standing half
hidden in the smoke at point which
would soon be the very centre Of the
confagration. But they never flinched.
They stood in the exact position where
they were when Henry left them; the
trapper still holding the trumpet in HE
hand, and the lad still gazing steadfastly
ahead. .ts.,.. "a
"Toll them to port two points. said the
Lad, quietly.
The old man placed the trumpet to his
lips, and through the brazen tube his
voice poured steady and strong:
"The boy says, Tell 'em 20 port too
