THE CAPTAINS LAST LOVE.
El WILkIE COLLINS.

"UArrKRy.
What was the lost captain doing? and
what chance had the crew OF finding
him that night
He mad committed himself to his des-
peratc adventure, without forming any
plan for the preservation of his own
safety. without giving even momcntary
consideration to the consequences that
might follow. The charming picture
that had been seen through his telescope
had haunted him night and day. The
image of the innocent creature, secluded
from humanity in her island solitude.
was the one image that filled his mind
\ man passing woman in the street
acts on the impulse to turn and follow
her. and in that one thoughtless moment
shapes the destiny of his future lite
The captain. seeing the canoe on the
beach. acted on a similar impulse when
! he took the paddle and shaped his reck-
less con Sc tor the tabooed island.
Reaching the shore while it was still
dark, he did one sensible thing-ne hid
III" canoe :" that il might not betray him
when the daylight came. That done, he
waited for the morning on the outskirts
OF the forest
The trembling light of dawn revealed
the mysterious solitude around him
Following the outer limits of the trees.
first in one direction, then in another.
and finding n" trace OF any living crea-
turc, he decided on penetrating to the
interior OF the island, He entered the
forest
An hour of walking brought him to
rising ground. Continuing the ascent,
he got clear of the trees and stood on
the grassy top of 4 broad cliff which
overlooked the sea. An open hut was on
the cliff. He cautiously looked in and
discovered that it was empty. The lew
household utensils lett about and the
simple bed of leaves in the corner. were
covered with fine. sandy dust. Night birds
flew blundcring out OF inner cavities IN
the root, and took refuge in the shadows
of the forest below. 1t WAS plain that
the hut had not been inhabited for some
time past.
Standing at the open doorway, and
considering what he should do next. the
captain saw Il bird lying toward him
out OF the forest 1t was Il turtle dove,
so tame that it tiuttered close up to him.
At the same moment the sound of sweet
laughter became audible among the
trees His heart beat fast; he advanced
n few steps and stopped. In a moment
| more the nymph OF the island appeared,
in her white robe, ascending the cliff in
pursuit OF her truant bird. She saw
him, and suddenly stood still. struck
motionlcss by the amazing discovery
that had burst upon her. The captain
approached. smiling. and held out his
hand. She never moved; she stood be-
fore him in helpless wnndcrment; her
lovely black eyes fixed on him spell
bound; her dusky bosom palpitating
above the fallen folds of her robe; her
rich red lips parted in mute astonish-
ment, Spell-bound on his side, feastng
his eyes on her beauty in silence. the
] captain, after L while, recovered HIM

The night had come. and the captain
had not left the island. Aimatas reso-
luton to send him away in the darkness
was forgotten resolution already. She
had let him persuade her that he was in
no danger SO long as he remained in the
hut on the cliff; and she had promised at
parting. 10 return to him. while the
priest was still sleeping, at the dawn Of
day.
He was alone in the hut. The thought
OF the innocent creature whom he loved
was sorrowtully as well as tcnderly pres
ent to his mind. He almost regretted
his rash visit to the island. Il will take
her with me to England" he said to
himself What do | care for the opinion
OF the world? Aimata shall be my wife"
The intense heat oppressed him. He
stepped out on the cliff toward midnight.
in search oil breath of air. The first
shock Of earthquake telt in the ship
while she was inside the reef shook the
ground he stood on. He instantly
thought Of the volcano on the main
island. Had he been mistaken in sup
posing the crater to be extinct? Was

felt a warning from the volcano, com
