"Then he went of into the thick
bush which covered the mountains in
the interior of the island, where no
white man could catch him.
"Next morning l had to bear my
share of the joke. When the Lieutenant
came on shore, he found me sitting on
the veranda, just where Wilkinson had
been a couple Of days before. He made
sure he had got his man. 1t was no usa

taken off to the man of war, and gave

man, he saw the joke, though it was
against him.
j. "We've been sold,' he said; most
damnably Sold, and then he told his
officers, and they all laughed together.
"They treated me we'll on board when
they found that was innocent, and I
got them some Samoans to guide the
party which went into the bush in pur-
suit of Jack, but it was no manner Of
use their trying to catch him, even il
the natives had not taken care to lead
them astray. So after fooling around in
the bush for couple of days, climbing

"And did Jack get off, after all:"
asked, for l could not help sympathizing
with the cunning scoundrel.
"Oh, Jackl" concluded the trader.

"When the lieutenant heard this, be

Don't be In too much Of hurry
said Jack. You'd better go slow. It's a

went off with the lieutenant, and the
captain, knowing nothing of the coast,
was very glad to accept him as pilot,
and gave him $40 for his services too.
"On the passage round Jack spun
them long yarn about the savage ma
tives Of Tanuna. They were terribly
fierce, be said, always fighting, and
Wilkinson would probably stir them up
to attack the landing party and SO pre-
vent his arrest. They ought to go ashore
with q strong, armed force and, If pos
sible, field gun or two.
"The advice sounded reasonable
enough to the captain, and, Of course,
the officers and men were delighted at
the prospect of scrimmags.
1T was quite little army which
landed that afternoon. There was
whole bargeload Of sailors and marines,
all armed to the teeth, and couple Of
small cannon, which they pointed at the
big round chiefs house in the center Of
the village. You may be sure the peace
full people Of Tanuna were scared out Of
their wits.
1T was Jack 8 turn now, and he made
the most of it. He called all the chiefs
together into the marae-that's the open
space in the center of the village where
they always do their talking-and held
long fono. The lieutenant stood by all
the time, not understanding word Of
what was going on. Jack told the trem-
bling Samoans that the great Queen
Victoria in her palace Of the big seas
had heard Of the way in which one Of
her people had been treated and had sent
the man-of.war to blow the village into
the air, to hang all the chiefs and to
carry off the rest of the people as slaves.

LIBRARY NAY BE REODESEP.

A16RAhx MAX DE REODESEP.
Since the closing. of the Pub.
lie Library in September last it
has been a cause of regret to our
citizens, and many times it. has
been remarked that it should be
reopened if circumstances should
make it possible. With this end
in veiw, Mayor Scott has practi-
cally obtained the free use of a
suitable room. and an entertain
ment for the benefit of the pro
ject has been spoken of and if
desirable to those parties most
interested will be given on the
18th of March. For such an en-
tertainment Mr.. D. H. Moon,
who is known to all as a most
public spirited man, states tina,
his daughters, the Misses Moon.
and others from outside, will
tender their services gratis. and
with little effort on the part OF
local talent most interesting
literary and musical program
could be arranged. Quite a fuDo
for necessary incidental expen
ses could thus be raised. and we
believe the result would amply
repay the necessary effort on
the part of the Library Associ-
