hauled up on the sand. and, with q screech of fright. doubled back over the lower bridge. Picking up good sized lump of coral, threw it with al! my might and struck him fairly be- tween the shoulders. That settled it; he ran as if the devil were after him, not daring to look round.
 Since arriving at Agana, had be- come acquainted with the islander Miguel, who had presented the church with his e1ligy in wax after recovering from his strange and terrible disease, well enough to remember the proa in which he always sailed. This lay not far from my own; and it seemed em- inently fitting that the owners ghost should put to sea in it. Lest anyone should have nerve enough to watch the proceedings, l propped the figure in the stern, where, concealing me, it would show distinctly, then sailed around the island to Tarofofo as fast as the craft would travel. Upon reach ing the cove, 1 secured Br'er Miguel among the rocks on Point Paicpouc in such way that, while invisible from the outside. no one could enter the bay without seeing him. Considering the possibility of discovery by some one with sufficient education and cour-
 - +o investigate the thing, it scerned risky to put it on the point where my Assure was.
 There was no time to reach the town again before daybreak; so. running up the east coast to point where the island was less than four miles across, lashed the steering paddle in such a way that it would carry the proa straight out to sea, and set it adrift.
 A valley which lay along the easter ly base of Tiniquio opened out in the neighborhood of Agana, and by six o'clock l pushed through banana patch directly in the rear of the gober- nador's house. As it happened, there was no one in the patio, and, mounting to my room unooserved. 1 came down again directly with couple of towels. Having had no sleep, and considerable hard work, felt just rocky enough for good swim; it also seemed an excel lent excuse for early rising in case any one should have noticed my move ments.
