CAPTAIN WOOD RESUMES.

CAPTAIN WOOD res CMES.
After an interrninab!e drive, still
bound and gagged, l at last found my
self on 4 narrow bed, probably a cabin
berth. The notion the noises, the
odors around, soon satisfied NE that
was on shipboard and at sea.
must have been in 4 state of semi
stupor, the result Of i'll usage and want
of food. for only reused myself with
difficulty on hearing my name called
aloud. realized then that my bonds
had been cast loose; there was no gag
in my mouth; I was so far free that
l could use my limbs and speak if
choose. I was in 4 smaH cabin, only
dimly lighted through the closed port;
but it was still daylight, and from the
wash against the side knew that the
craft, whatever it might be, was in
the open sea.
Three men were in the small cabin,
croWding up and filing it completely.
Two stood over me, one of whom l
| recognized as LaWford, the American,
| and when saw his face realized how
deep laid was the plot against me. Be-
hind was u third, a coffee colored
negro, who took no part in the pro-
ceedings, except to show his white
teeth in a truculent grin from time to
time when referencesWas made to him.
The spokesman was a tall, thin, Ian
tern jaWed man, with a goatee beard
and a big slouch hat. His accent was
strongly corroborative Of the land he
hailed from.
you'll be mad with us, guess, Mr..
Wood, for this rough handling" he
began, slowly revolving an unlighted
cigar between his lips; ''but we've got
our reasons, and they're good-to us,
anyhow. I may first observe that you
are in our power, and that we can dc
what we like with you"
"Pshaw! The first ship passing. liner
or man-of-war, will set me free"
cried contenptuously.
.'That's SO, if you could commu
nicate; but we shall prevent that, ]
reckon, by keeping you below, unless
you swear to do no such thing" r.

the advice was considered good, al
though the skipper did not much like
the job Of entering a strange place in
the dead Of night.
There were more difficulties made
next day, and it was quite late before
the major and set foot on the Fleur-
de-Iis. Some more big French toads
had come off from shore-a magistrate,
one or two doctors, and an officer Of
gendarmes-and they had begun a

there had been wounding and attempt
ed murder, SO they said, on board the
yacht. -.
The long ana the short Of it was
that the rogues had fallen out among
themselves; with good reason, too,
from the point Of view OF some Of
them. McQuahe, the colonel from
Klondike, had fallen out with Luwford
for assisting our captain to escape
from the yacht, and loosed off at him
directly Wood was missed. He was q
quick shooter and had pretty we'll filled
Lawford up with lead, SO full that it
might go hard with him. y
But, at his own request, they let
Major Thornhill have some talk with
him, in which little light was thrown
on recent proceedings. William Wood

shore in the a:ngey. He, Of course
was the man Joe had seen.
Questioned as to the confidential
papers, and whether they were OF
board, Lawford shook his head.
'The duke has stuck to them
There's money in them, a big pile, AMI
he's crossing the pond by tomorrow's
mail to sell them to Uncle Sam. Guess
you won't overtake him, and if you try
to stop him on landing he'll have the
American government on his side
They're hungering for those papers
you bet.''
"You are positive they are no

way would be to row out in the dingey;
so he ran her back into the water and
pulled out to the sea, coasting the far
side and giving the yacht a wide berth.
When almost off it, a fierce row broke
out aboard. Six. shooters were let off,
several shots, pretty quickly followed
by yells and curses. Joe saw that the
disturbance was heard on shore; lights
began to dance about in the village,
and the alarm was given.

Enthusiasm is a good thing In its place,
but it is to be doubted If even the big
surplus In the national treasury warrants
the officers of the government to indulge
In sentiment by cable at SIT per word.
The commander of the Oregon cabled
Secretary Long that he could patch the
holes in the battleship in a short time
and proceed to Taku for duty, and asked
for instructions. The following is the re-
ply he received:

side Scarborough to keep the average
family month-and in the midst of this
embarrassment Of riches the secretary is
not at all embarrassed in swelling his
cable messages with parlor conversation.
In more than one particular it is a good
thing the Oregon was not lost. There
is no telling what it would cost If the

and Is In absolute antagonism to our at
titude both in the Philippines and Porto
Rico. If our future policy toward Cuba
is to be guided by It, we will have pre-
scented to the world spectacle which L.
in itself a glorious contrast to the atti-
tude taken by every other nation through
out all history in like situation. from
the days of the Roman empire to the be-
ginning Of the twentieth century.
Every friend Of Cuban liberty should
unite in the demand that before the close
of the present political campaign this
people shall have clearly made known
their purpose, beyond all possibility Of
withdrawal, to surrender all Jurisdiction
over Cuba by a given period. From all
we know Of those In control of the situa-
ton at Washington it is far from being an
improbable circumstance that, in case Of
the reelection Of the president. all the
professions made regarding Cuba will be
nullifled and course of policy adopted
toward the Cuban people similar in prin-
ciple to that which has been made to pre-
vail in our relations to the people Of the
Philippines and our other territorial pos
sessions.
