Teen, and the observers in the coming
tower had come to believe that the
dreary solitudes of the ocean door were
utterly untenanted.
But one day Dolly, who was on the
lookout, gave call. and the doctor,
who was working with the others at
the crank, bade Guthrie go up to the
coming tower and see what was amiss
"Look there, Alan" cried Dolly,

She put over the wheel a couple Of
spokes, and for moment the great eel
was dropped by the lantern rays and
passed out of sight. But the next in
slant it had worked itself into the glare
again, and then, keeping the light
squarely on to it, Guthrie saw to his
horror that it was undulating slowly
through the water in the direction of
the coming tower.
"Call the doctor, Alanl" cried Dolly
in alarm.
Guthrie went to the ladder and shout
ed, and the doctors long legs came
tumbling up the steps three at time.
But before he arrived the beast had
gained the ketch's decks, and it's great
snakelike head was nuzzling against
the glass windowed ports of the coming
tower.

the abyssmal depths, something damned
in one of the pumps. Tom Jelly and
Hans Spiedernichel who had gone to
man the forward pump, came tumbling
aft again with horror written on their
faces and announced what had &C.
CURED. The fear of death came upon
every one of the listeners. Even Cain
Laversha, whom nothing up to that
point had moved into any expression
either Of pleasure or of pain. dropped
his ham colored face into the hollows
Of his hands and groaned aloud.

Pierce, be lost to ZEE, an the warm all

thikky."
''Hold your din, you great fool!" said
DR.. Tring angrily on hearing the tail
end of this lament and go and put
some beef into the break of the pump.
Something may smash if we put too
much force into it, y hazarded Guthrie,
"and if it does the wafer will come in -
eff it does, +" replied the doctor in a
husky whisper. '.it will be quickly over
with us. That will be better than stay

oxygen and then sitting helpless till we
choke by slow degrees. Col"
Guthrie went with the others. They
strained and strained at the break of
the force pump, heaving it up and down
against pressure apon which their
combined might made no impression.
But at last something gave way. There
was a rush of water. They stopped
their efforts and listened. Then,
"Hoch" cried spiederaichel. who was
lying with his ear clapped up against
the iron plating. 'sHochl It wass ge-

They turned to the pumps again. Re
lieved of the obstruction, these worked
freely once more, and in a very few
moments the Eureka was at the sur
face.
What exactly had gone wrong was
never found out for certain, but DIR.
Tring conjectured that fish or some
other sea animal had got pinned in one
of the valves and SO prevented its work
ing. Be that as it may, the danger was
fearful one, and, when the Eureka did
come to the surface, she lay there for
two days before DR.. Tring and the cap
tain could bring themselves to order
another descent.
And once, too, they encountered an
other submarine peril that none of them
had counted upon. Fish there were in
plenty in the upper stratum where the
daylight penetrated, and. as has already
been said, they were by no means shy,
but came swimming and shooting
around the ketch, evidently full of Gu.
riosity to see what the strange thing
might be which had come into their
domain. But in the heavy depths be-
low, where the soft CLEAN which filled
the upper regions gave place to coaly
blackness, no life whatever was to be

THE FINDING OF THE SANTA cArARNA

THE FINDING OF THE SANTA CATARINA.
AS soon as he saw the great eel DR.
Tring turned out the lights with snap
and passed down an order to empty the
tanks as fast as the water could be
driven out of them. All hands worked
with will, and very soon the Eureka
was leaping surfaceward again in rapid
bounds.
OF what was occurring on her decks

the ballast tanks had been freed Of wa

proved task almost too great for
them. But at last it was done, and the
ketch was slowed round to ride bows on
to the waves.
Then there was leisure to look around,
and the sight which met the eyes was
cruel enough, for the pounding seas
had made sad havoc while the Eureka
had been rolling helpless in their trough.
Nine days after the adventure with
the giant eel Dolly made mistake
which was the cause of giving great
disappointment to the whole crew. This
is how it happened:
The Eureka had sunk quietly down
to within fathom or SO of the ooze,
and the doctor, who always directed
the upward and downward movements
of the vessel himself, left the coming
tower and went down to help the others
on the crank. Dolly remained in the
coming tower alone. The wheel worked
easily. She had the pinnacle in front Of
her and was well able to steer compass
course, and as the pace which the hand
driven screw gave along the sea floor
was slow, and Dolly's brown eyes were
very keen. she was easily able to keep a
smart lookout at the same time.
The other seven members Of the crew
had been grinding stolidly on at the
hateful screw shaft for some hour and a
half, saying little to one another, and
(some of them at least) thinking of lit
tie, for the monotony of the never end
ing work had knocked the spirit out of
them. But Of sudden they were cleo

Clarksville, Texas, where they will
show next season. We had the
pleasure of meeting Mr.. Clark, who
is an actor that has reached the
top of the ladder of preferment, and
found him a nice, entertaining
gentlemen, free from any stage
rout or assumed superiority over
the balance of mankind. He walked
around to the Hardin's Opera
House site and expressed himself
well pleased at prospect of our city
having an opera house for next sea
son. While looking at the plan OF
the building, be asked Mayor Har.
din who was present, where is
your dressing rooms going to be?'
and the mayor enlightened him, by
telling under the stage, and behind
the wings, on raised platforms. Mr.
Clarke looked amused and said he
had played in some theatre build,
ings, where there were no dressing
rooms at all, and went on to say
that in Philadelphia, a stock com
pany built and almost completed a
large theatre building, before they
discovered that the architect had
made no provision for dressing
rooms, Mayor Hardin told the ac-
tor, will have plenty of dressing
rooms and they will be heated by hot

That time lis the equivalent OF
money, but few people seem to re-
alize. Our most successful business
men know it well, and when one of
the hstless, Indifferent class come in
and delay them in their work, it is
with the greatest of difficulty that
they restrain themselves from be-
/ ing curt or unciyil toward them. A
real live business man feels that he
has not half enough tlme to do al
| that is in his heart and mind to ac-
complish. And the workman, who
| is not what the Bible terms an "eye
servant" is careful not to loiter or
waste his employers time, in con-
versation or otherwise, but stead
fastly attend to his duties faithfully.
One and all should remember that
time and opportunity once passed
can never be recalled, and make use
of same constantly.

people than are killed in war, The
