the keel, and extends along the bottom
or the cruiser for about ninety feet. The
injury has every appearance of having
been made by a jagged rock.
Boss Carpenter Spears said that he

II can be noticed that the injury
caused the big cruiser to leak slightly, as
water exudes from the inside along tn

The Court OF Inquiry took a look at

Why, Grit! Where are you goingT'
ed directly for the Poiyanthus,
out to the reef, after fish," was the
answer
That's where we are going, n were
going in the schooner, too. Mother said
fish, but so far as l hav heard she
didn't say what kin OF fish, SO, of
Spanish mackerel, kingtish, yellow
tails or drums, You know that We can't
find those shut of the reef any morc'n
skin. Besides, sister. it's our very last
chance for a sail In the old Poly. She's
going to he sold, or rather given away
tomorrow, and I don't suppose Wen
ever see her again oil own another
boat"
or course, this was convincing, for
Matey not only dearly loved to sail, but
was firm In her belief that whatever Grit
said or did was right, Thus an hour
later saw the little schooner, after "A
glorious run across the broad Hawk
Channel, anchored just inside the great

huge breakers were dashing themselves
into showers OF glistenlng spray. The
fishing was superb, and so absorbing
that the sun was sinking into its bed OF
crimson n gold ere either Grit or
Matey thought of starting for home.
men AT ltUSNn lNtN were ready u kO
and attempted to get up the anchor. All
their strength on the windlass failed to
nudge II. \ nuke had caught beneath
some great punch OF coral. and with
hoylike carelessness Grit had neglected
10 provide a trip line, II was quite lark
before he abandoned the attempt to re-
cover their anchor and said chcerfully,
Never mind. Matey girl. 1t won't hurt
us to stay out here over night, and as
Don as II comes light again, III dive
down there, n see what is the matter.
I'm not going to cut the cable and lose
that brand new anchor unless have TO,
that's sure.
So they cooked n supper OF nsh and
made Themselves SO comfortable in the
snug little cabin that they rather re-
toiced in their adventure than otherwise.
So soundlyN did they sleep that night
that not until he was flung from his
locker ON the cabin loo did Grit
awaken to the fact that the Poly was
pitching madly and that a gale was
shrieking through her taut rigging.
Calling 70 Matey the boy sprang on the
deck. where he was well-nigh beaten
down by the furions squall OF wind and
' rain that Just then hurled itself against
the schooner, T,-.T "
