WE'RE FINALLY SOUTH BOUND

OF THE COURSE OF EVENTS TILL, WE
WE'RE FINALLY SOUTH BOUND.
Some one beatpd me shouted, and
there was rush rf the men and cries,
and in the midst CT it / saw the little
supercargo dart from some place aft
and raise the captains head. | leaped
to the poop ladder and flung myself up.
and then | turned to the poor captain,
with whom it had Jared, indeed, after
the worst. His lower face. save for the
chaps, to which some beard hung, had
been shot away, and he was a dead
man, even before l had stopped to speak
to the sailor.
This is sorrowful business" said the
supercargo, rising with a sigh, and COW
ering the shattered face with his pock-
ct handkerchief. "He was a brave man
and true"
| summoned three seamen, and with
great tenderness we brought down
Capt. Houthwick's body, which we laid
for the time on the quarterback, COW
ering it with tarpaulin. When these
things were attended to the mate dis
patched us again forward, and for
handling and better speeding of the
ship. The Dutchman's crippled fore
mast continued to fret him, but he
would not give over, and SO for long
time we both kept ourcourse, though the
Industry all the while made a small but
steady gain. 1t must have been half
an hour after this that Master Sellinger
called me, and upon my responding said
that he must now retire to the cabin
for little, the further disposition Of
the voyage standing to be settled, and
that meanwhile was to command the
ship. With that, and upon my ascend
ing to the quarterback, he made a
sign to Mr.. lynn and they both went
below.
After a little Mr.. Tym and the mate
returned to the deck, their counte-
nances, though sober, cleared, as I
thought, as it might be they had set
tied their business to their minds.

turned to see whether the mate was
ready-I mean ready to have the ship
luffed, SO that he could secure his aim
Il heard low, dull boom, and, as |
whirled again, ball of smoke blew out
from the bows of our pursuer and
wreathed off to leeward.
"He's firing at the moon," said the
mate contemptuously, and now l saw
that the excitement had struck the
color from the mans cheeks, save for
little patch of red which showed
under the sea-burn, and that his
nerves were strung high and firm.
AT the gun!" called the captain
from the poop. Are you ready, Mas
ter Sellinger?
"All ready, sir!"
"Then to the braces, men! Luff!"
he roared back to the two fellows at
the helm.
The ship came handsomely into the
wind. and as she dipped to the bottom
of a hollow the mate gave a swift
glance along his gun and applied the
linstock.
He had loaded while l was below,
and l knew not what the charge was,
but it must have contained a scat
ter-load, for l saw a tremendous dim
pie all over the water, just outside of
the Dutchman's forefoot.
"a good beginning!" shouted the
captain. "Have at him again."
We got upon our course once more,
and meantime the gun was reloaded
"Ha! he's showing his teeth at last!"
cried the mate, pausing with his fuse,
which he was blowing up in his hand.
He pointed toward the enemy, and
10! two ports in the bows had opened,
and in each was the round target spot
which marked the muzzle of gun.
"He has discovered that something
besides swivels will be needed" said
Mr.. Tym, who had come, without our
perceiving him, among us. NAY, but
he is about to give us the compliment
of his VIII ole broadside."
A tremendous, crashing roar, and
sky full of smoke followed. l think
stopped, but | am not sure, and the
next that comes clear before me is
that a great splinter from somewhere
overhead struck the deck near me and
gave queer sort of elastic spring, and
went overheard. l confess l jumped
back, and as did so l ground my heel
upon something soft, and had to make
another spring to prevent falling. By
this time / had backed nearly to the
quarterback, and, the smoke having
now almost blown away, l leaned
against the break of the deck and
looked around. The spot where had
stumbled first arrested my eye, and

I'M THE LIFE OF A LEAF.

How many lives have come to grief
How many parted been
Since TO the light this fragrant leaf
Unfolded fresh and green.
How many shining bubbles burst
How much has passed away
Since this sweet leaf, bud at first.
In natures bosom lay.
What stubborn fights. what cities stormed.
What splendid victories won
Since this soft leaf. divinely formed.
First looked upon the sun.
Squadrons twain. Kingdoms pride.
Have vanished from the scene;
Thousands have perished side by side.
And still the leaf is green.
A naughty foe has felt our power.
Our leniency no less
Since this leaf to the sunny shower
Revealed its loveliness.
Its daybreaks brief have been as bright.
Its sunsets few have burned,
Yet thrones have shook since to the light
AS unto life is turned.
Here. on this hilltop where the wind
Blows from the far-off sea,
1t looks before not, nor behind,
Nor mourns melodiously.
And yet: How much OF human grief.
How much of anguish keen,
Since to the light this fragrant leaf
Unfolded fresh and green!

Did you make ,our Grnin-o thi.unx,

Here are the latest directions: Use one
tablespoonful of Grain-O to two cups of cold
water. Mix the Grain-O with half an egg
and add the water. Be sure to measure. J
After the water gets to the boiling paint
let boil for fifteen to twenty minutes Use
cream and sugar to suit the taste. If YOU
have not cream use hot milk.
A lady said: The first time | drank
Grain-O | did not like it, but after using it
for ten days and forming the habit, nothing
would induce me to go back to coffee"
This is the experience of all. If YOU will
follow directions, measure it every time
and make 1t the same and try it for ten
days, you will not go back to coffee.

WANTS THE PARK
The Kalihi Proposition
Discussed.
A Correspondent Who Would Liz g

Honolulu. II. l.. Dec. Is, 1899.

Honolulu, II. l.. Dec Is, 1899
| Editor Advertiser: AS a teacher il
| the government school in Kalihi.
| most heartily favor the action of oul
citizens in their effort TO provide a re
creation park for Kalihi children.
For more than year, We have plac-
ed a strict tabu on the small forms Of
gambling games so much indulged in
here and there over the city, and as
much as possible we have discour-
aged it at home and on the streets.
AS a substitute and counter-action,
We have encouraged base ball, foot
ball, etc, as more wholesome games.
However, there is no place, outside Of
our small and ill-suited school grounds
for such games. Since the streets are
not very we'll adapted 10 base ball
playing, the children indulge in such
dirty demoralizing games as playing
marbles for keeps, button games, and
dice throwing.
are Objectionable 1t is recognized
feature of the kindergarten that
games educate children morally and
socially, and that the character of the
education depends directly on the
nature of the games. Most children
get their first lesson in personal rights

playing with other children. Except
ing the influences of education the
boy on the streets today will be the
citizen of tomorrow Then it is the
province of the government, and more
directly that of the parent and teach
er to direct the children in their pas
times.
The fact that one kalihi boy has
been near deaths door and that anoth-
er is now wearing stripes, all as a re-
suit of the hoodlumism attending the
present places and methods of pas
times, affords a strong argument in
favor of a change.

play it in preference to playing mar
bles, if there was a suitable ground
for such a game. At the risk of dis
turbing the Sunday quietude of our
neighborhood, we have invited the
boys into the school-yard to play,
rather than have them playing on the
streets.
A good park with ample recreation
grounds will benefit Kalihi morally,
socially and physically. The govern
ment band might occasionally favor
this district with some music.
AS there are no convenient places
for public bathing in Kalihi, a swim
ming pool like that at Moanalua might
be constructed. Then with pleasant
surroundings, wholesome pastimes to-
gether with our Kalihi breezes, there
would be much needed good done to
this district as we'll as an added at
traction to the whole city.
Very respectfully,
J. N. TAGGARD.
