changed my mind had time been given
me, but as soon as morning broke the
steamer was cast loose from the dock,
and in few hours the increased mo-
ton plainly told that we were out on
the ocean.
I determined to bide my time for q
day or two, and, although the confine-
ment was irksome, braved it out until
the sun had risen and set four times.
My reasons for this representation are
not easily explained, but an indefnable
feeling of dread made me hesitate, and
las the sequel proved saved my life.
There were several things which I had
noted from my hiding place that caused
me to wonder. In the first place the

name of the steamship to be) carried a
surprisingly large crew, although the
majority of them were not visible until
the second day out. And, for another
thing, the strict discipline that had
always heretofore seen on shipboard
was not maintained; for almost every
evening was occupied in carousing, and
! never heard the slightest protest from
the captain or any of the officers Of the
deck. Finally the fragments of con-
versation which I overheard between
two of the sailors impressed me as be.

A MaRnanlmous Act.

Matabeleland, in South Africa, where
the natives are in revolt against the
English, adjoins the South African re-
public, and is q part of the extensive ter
ritory administered by the British
South Africa company. Doctor Jane
son, who led the raid against the Beers,
was the administrator of this territory.
In view of these facts, and the strained
relations still existing between the
South African republic and England, it
was an act of unusual magnanimity
when President Kruger offered the
governor Of Cape Colony a force Of
burghers to 60 to the relief of the wom-
enand children whose lives were threat
ened by the Matabele rising ut Bulu-
waEo. The offer was declined, but it's
generosity makes it notable. Youths

Pretty Household Linen.

Violets, which still figure so fashion
ably on our hats and capes and evening
gowns, have lately carried the siege
from wardrobe to linen press, and
napery for breakfast table and bedroom
daintily embroidered with violets in
natural colors has become popular. The
idea originated in France, where en-
broidery is, before all, a high art, and
damasl< tea table covers, breakfast
cloths, fine linen sheets, ETC., embroid-
cred in forget-me-nots, roses, orchids
and violets, all in silks and natural
colors, make delightful addition to the

piles of snowy linen. - Chicago Journal.

eXnlDltlOn OF lack OF discipline, 1t was
certainly lucky find for me-, and I
made no delay in breaking off loaf of
the bread and munched it greedily.
The greater part of the cut was oc-
cupied by large number of packing
cases, and while making my way over
them was surprised to discover by the
hollow sounds given forth that they
were seemingly empty. Just about the
middle of the cut I almost fell into a
small space which had been left between
two cases in slowing; and in recovering
my balance wrenched loose one of the
boards on the side. Again my idle curl
osity proved my curse, for without any
set purpose lowered myself down and
crawled inside the huge box through
my improvised opening. To my great
establishment, found nothing but a
layer of stone ballast in the bottom;
and reasoned that doubtless the other
cases were similarly equipped, and that
the weight was to keep the boxes from
being shifted in heavy sea; although,
as they were closely wedged in between
the bulwarks this extra precaution
seemed supurfuous.
Then in an instant I had made the re-
solve that was to cause me so much
danger and anxiety in the next few
weeks-but unfortunately no hint or
suspicion came to me in time.
Here, reasoned, was an opportunity
especially sent by Providence for my
benefit. Unless betrayed Ky some I'M
foreseen complication, could lie I'M
suspected in this snug hiding-placc un-
til the vessel was far from land. The
stewards stores would supply the nee
essary food; and, best of all, some dis
tant land would probably afford me OPP
portunities that my own country seemed
to deny me. I would become a stow
away, brave the captains wrath, and
strive to win his sympathy by working
industriously at any work that he might
set me at. To will was to act; and with
scarcely pang Of conscience I conveyed
ten loaves of bread and few cans of
beef and tongue to my hiding place;
then, piling the rocks around the sides,
found myself in comfortable if not lux

up the steep incline, and as I started to
swing off the end to the deck, almost
walked over the recumbent figure OF a
man. Before I could recover my
startled faculties and retrace my foot
steps, the sleeping sentinel gave groan,
and had barely time to drop down be-
hind water-butt before he arose to his
feet and commenced pacing backwards
and forwards. Here was a predicament
Indeed! knew that if discovered
should be handed over to the ignorant
police Justice who would be utterly un-.
moved by any statement that might
make. Unless I could get off the ship
at some other point, or the sentry should
once more relax his vigilance, I should
probably be caught and sent to Jail as
a vagrant, if not an actual thief. 1t
may we'll be imagined how cursed the
idle curiosity that had led me to place
myself in such an unenviable position.
But repining was worse than useless.
I determined to reconnoitre the posi-
bilities of escape, and watching my
chance when the sentry's back was
turned, i stole away in the darkness.
The steamship, as near as'I could Judge,
was Of the typical tramp" class, with
spardeck cut away between the masts
for the better accommodation of cat
tie shipments. In the forward cut I
stumbled over quantity Of stores,
which had seemingly not been taken

flour, canned goods and as nearly as I
could judge, several hundred loayes Of
bread were piled up in Q disorderly man
mar. Much as I marveled at this further

possible for rue to find a niche in the

On certain sunny afternoon I man

out to the end of the pier esconced my

With the exception of these lights,
which were, of course, situated we'll aft,
no sign of life was visible; and although
stood alongside the gangway between
