While we we're temporarily absent
from Red Star man came along and
jumped our claim. There were three
Of us and we could have routed him
out in no time, but there had been Q
change from the old order Of things.
A county had been laid out and named,
officers elected. and the sheriff said
We must 60 to law with the jumper.
We therefore applied TO the justice Of
the peace. He knew nothing whatever
Of law, but had An inherent sense Of
right and Justice. l,.s
"Boys," said he, when he had the
facts in the case, II amt sure about
the law. Al I take It, NO man can be
sure. This critter has jumped your
claim, sure nun, but II you 60 to law
about II he may hold possession for
six months and then beat you at the
end"
But what shall We do7~ was asked.
"Thar's two ways open to you. You
kin diskiver that . wild yarmint has
taken possession of that hole in the
ground. Pears TO me that I should
dislkiver."
"But what II you did discovery"
"Wall, II ] had . claim and Q wild

I should sorter saunter down that
way"
"And whatf
"And sorter draw nigh and open on
him with my guns. Varmints don't
hev NO right In law. They 10 just var
mints Thar ar three of you with
two guns apiece. Pears to me that
you might drive the varmint out"
That was enough for us. Our claim
was down II feet, and the report
quickly spread that "varmint" was
down the hole. The trio of us ap-
preached II from different directions,
and the Jumper" did not know OF our
presence until we began rolling rocks
down on him. Then he resorted to his
guns, but after . fusillade he surren-
dered and came out. He ran OF to the
same Justice to state his case, and
when he had finished his honor re-
piled:
"Wall, wall, told 'em how it would
be IL they went to mixin' up things.
Under the old order Of things you was

you ar varmint Jumpers had some
rights, but varmint hsin't got none."

would look after them now? His wages
were l6 per months. on that he had
had but small chance to save. Well, he
supposed the shipmasters' society
would do something for her, but she
would have to give up her little house
at Forest Gate, and drop from the posi-

house. He thought of his own life, Of
his hard, ill-used boyhood, ca bin boy in
Quebec timber ship; Of his manhood,
spent in unremitting toll in all parts
of the world; of the various ships he
had commended, In each of which he
had been expected to use less coal,
less paint, fewer provisions, and to 90
with smaller crews than ia the last.
He thought of the blackguards he had
had to command as crews, and the
trouble he had lad with them. Well,
he'd not had much fun out Of life, and
now he was going to find out what It
al meant. Anyway, he had always
done his best for his ship.
His eyes fell on the dead body of the
fireman. That tool II the man should
indict him at the bar Of the last judg-
ment he would answer there. az hs
would have answered to an earthly
court; I'm my Judgment II was nec-
essary for the safety of the men In my
charge" A sudden quiver warned him
she was nearly gone, and he rose to his
feet for one last look to windward.
As he looked into the binding spray,
he saw a large wave come out Of the
mist, and knew II would swamp her.
He gripped the rail- with both hands,
and his lips moved In Q half-forgotten
prayer. ''Our Father. which art" and
the wave swept ON. But the saraband
had gone. The skipper had gone TO
meet his fireman where "there shall
be NO more sea."-Templs Bar.

that starts for the boat before tell
him, shoot; understand, ALP"
There was low murmur from the
men, and the skipper con&inued:
"Nfr. Smith will take charge Of the
boat"
The mate, with look at the slsip-
per, climbed into the bost % she hung
In the davits. Fhs skipper then called
the names Of the crew he proposed to
send in her, sending first the sailors,
20 that the mate might place each IN
his proper station in the boat, before
the Aremen, etc., who would be Of no
use IN the critical rnaneuvers Of eet-
ting her away from the ships side,
crowded her up. But these same are
men did not understand his reason
and thought he was showing undue
preference to his own men, and, Q
heavier sea than usual striking the
steamer, there was q cry Of: "SheS
going down, and he's sending the sail
ors drsti" and rush for che boat
"Etand haokt" cried the sAipper.
Crack! and the leading Arsmsn
spread ont his hands and pitched on
TO his face, rolling in . limp bundle
down on 70 TIE lee rail. The rest Of the
men stopped. They might - we'll be
drowned - shot, they thought. and
they huddled together, looking with
horrifed glances at their dead COM
rade. The skipper paused, lowered his
revolver. and then called the nAxt
name; they had learned their lesson,
and went quietly to the boat, which
was got safely away, and drifted out of
sight In the mist Of the gale.
The other boat was filled without
any mishap, and the skipper, the only
man left on the deck, lowered her, she
also got clear away, and drifted out to
the full length Of her painter. The
skipper walked aft to wait for them to
haul up again. He had TO pass the body
Of the dead man, and he did not look at
1t. The boat was hauling up ON the
painter, and was getting close; the
skipper got on the rail ready to jump. 4
At that moment q fireman, the brother
Of the man he had shot, reached over
the boat's bow, and, with . cry Of
BLAST you, stop and drown with Bill"
cut the painter.
The distance between the ship and
the boat began to widen instantly, and
IN spite OF the frantic efforts Of the
sailors at the oars the deeply laden
boat was swept away and blotted out
IN the mist. The skipper got down
from the rails, and made his way back
to the bridge deck. He had Just ten
minutes to live. Ten minutes to pre-
pare for the next world, after 40 years
at seal
he climbed up on the bridge again,
