Four months later the Chrysolite was
unloading a general cargo in Mauritius
HarbOr. Capt. Anderson had thought
II Ovef.
The quay was quickly covered with
Manchester bales and Birmingham
cases; aud it was not long before the
tackle at the ~mainyard arm was set
a-clicking, as the baskets of sand ball
last were hove up to be poured into the
empty held. No such Injuries were
there as steam winches, nor any Of those
modern appliances for tightening labor.
Instead, five or six hands piled the pom
derous WORK at the winch handles,
the labor being substantially aggravated
by the heat OF a vertical sun. A spell
at the orthodox hand winch in the
tropics is an ordeal not to be lightly
spoken Of, and sailors have the very
strongest objection to the work. 1t re-
Quired the utmost vigilance on the part
Of the Captain, therefore, to prevent
feebler spirits from DESERVING. He was
able, however, to reckon a full crew as
he steered out OF Port Louis Harbor and
shaped his course for Ceylon.
Some OF the hands had grumbled at
not having more liberty to go ashore.
In an excess Of passion Anderson made
answer;
"To your kennels, you dogs! I'll put
you ashore soon enough, and I'll
ram you'll stay there longer than you
care for!"
at was indiscreet language, and the
men puzzled over II. They concluded
that the skipper meant to obtain their
Imprisonment ST the next British port
they should touch for mutinous conduct,
and knowing he was = man OF his word
they assumed the best behavior.
Captain Anderson had not changed
for the better. Hitherto he had main
tanned a frmness OF discipline bordering
upon severity, and he certainly had
never relaxed from that attitude. Now
he had become an an incOmprehenSible
mixture OF indulgence and cruelty. The
two elements were incompatible, and
the more intelligent of his officers were
not long 10 p%erceiving that there was a
vicious and variable wind In their su-
perlor's moral atmosphere, under which
his canvas strained or tapped la
cOuntably. They imagined, to pursue
their W figure, that his hand did not
grasp the reason tiller with its custom
airy grip, and that his bark was left
more or less to the conflicting guidance
Of other Influences. Many a time since
his departure from England had the old
sailor been stung with remorse 1t the
unwritten tenor OF his present commits
sion. He would frequently try TO look
the whole thing in the facs-would en-
deAvor to account for the acceptance OF
an offer against which his old self re.

Business and professional women may
be roughly divided into two classes
those who have struggled and fought to

seemingly dropped into some lucrative

To the latter class belongs Mrs. Jusna
Achey Neal, who presents the rare but

With a rapid movement he gains the
forecastle and roars into II; "All hands

many In their shirts alone. They are
all sleepy, but the business In hand will
soon cure them OF this.
They stand by. The helm is put
down, and quickly the Chrysolite veers
round In process OF reaching the other
tack. Will she do it? No. She trem-
bles almost in the teeth Of the wind,
misses stays, and falls off again on to
the tack.
Anderson cannot understand it, old
sailor as he is; he puts the helm down
once more; once more she misses.
Back the mainyard! SILVER the
%foreyard!"
Soon every stitch OF canvas on the
mainmast is swung about to face the
breeze, while that on the foremost is
hauled in. Although she Is going at
eight knots that should check her.
But it does not.
"Mizen-topsail braces thenl" Quick
as thought the lee braces are Stacked
of, and those on the weather side made
taut. Still she is mol checked. Strange,
too, for the breeze is stiff. Anderson
feels she in the stream Of a strong cur
rent.
There had been no need to say what
was the u of danger. The heavy
boom Of breakers rose above the tread
of feet, the clashing of spars and the
chorus OF curses.
Meanwhile. MI. Grant has finished his
calculations below, He has found for a
result that the ship is among the NAL
dive reefs. He Is certain there must be
some error in his work, and he set him
self to revise his figures. But the breeze

loose with lung and boot heel and um-
