A quics glance = as exchanged between

reassurins look seemed at once to di-pel
her fears.
Major Upton, noticing the glance,
frowning, said to HI, daughter, Come.
Bell, let us 60 below"
Winfield had been a suitor Of Bells
since sLe came to visit her father al Bonn
bay, some months before. The girl ia.
vored him, but not SO the major, who
wanted her To choose wealthy lover.
Bell was beautiful, with a form of
uArivaled grace, brown eyes, clear,
pearl-white skin, with little color, and
dark golden hair that fell in ripping
masses over pair of magnificent shoul-
ders. The lieutenant watched her ad-
miringly until she disappeared in the
cabin.
"No harm shall befall her, not while l
live" he thought, as he now glanced un-
easily towards the coast. 1--WE have arms
aboard, have we mott" he added aloud to
the captain.
cay, az, sir; but it is not likely We
shall be attacked. We are full two
leagues from the coast, and before we are
near enough to he boarded breeze will
spring up, have no doubt"
A few hours later night closed round
the ship. The sky was covered by thick
clouds which obscured the moon and
seemed tn betoken that breeze would
spring up before long.
Meanwhile the ship having drifted a
league nearer the coast, the lieutenant
thought the captain very careless not to
have more than his one lookout posted
forward on SO dark night.
Before eleven o'clock the quarterback
was deserted by all save the officer of the
watch, a lazy fellow who was now
stretched on the carpenters chest half
asleep, while the watch forward, as
Winfield (who stood leaning over the
rail amidships) could perceive by the
light of lantern in the fore rigging, lay
reclining on the hatch, some Of them
snoring.
Not feeling sleepy, the lieutenant re-
solved to 90 aloft on the mizzen topsail
yard and watch for the first sign of a
breeze. Arrived on the yard, the gloom
was SO intense that he could not see the
waters below, although he still gazed in
that direction. Was it reality or imag-
ination7 He thought he could detect the
dim outline of something shooting around
the ships stern.
He was about descending, when, the
NOON parting the clouds, flood of sill
very light was poured down on the ship
and water, revealing sight that filed
the young man with horror-a scene 80
sudden and unexpected that his heart
seemed to stand still.
While he was aloft Bell Upton had
come cut on the quarter, deck, and now
steed with her back to the rail, about
two feet from it, her head bowed as if
in deep thought, TO that her beautiful
white face sbone like polished ivory in
the bright moonlight. Then unseen, un-
heard by the young girl, q Hindo0, with
