Councilmen Sanders and McNeil got down to figures and ascertained by a great deal of addition and subtraction that 50 cents is less than fl; even less than 40. When they had carefully proved their work and satisfied them selves that the Enterprises bid of 50 cents was the lowest, Councilman Sanders moved that the contract be awarded the Enterprise. Councilman Fickas contended that 14 was less than 50 and so muc h less that it would amount to the taxpayers to 200 or more dollars a year. But he didn't prove his work like Messrs. McNeil and Sanders; just made an off-hand statement which was given no credence by his col leagues, who awarded both the publish ing and job printing contracts to- the Enterprise. MT. Fickas said NO, and so would Councilman Dyer, that pal lageum'' of the peoples liberties, that care -taker of the taxpayers, have voted "No,' but he was lying at home writhing with cramps in his stomach and other irritating intestinal insurrec- tions which had risen up in his midst late in the afternoon. Those cramps will be lamented bv the city taxpayers IS mulr1 as they were by Councilman Dyer. While they cost him great pain and several hundred groans, they will cost the taxpayers great pain and sev- eral hundred dollars. But even a watchdog. however faithful he may be. is subject to cramps. The Enterprise has no job printing plant, but Council- man McNeil has.
 
 tracts Messrs. McNeil and Fickas en- gagged in a little word play which served as a diversion for the audience. The lie was passed. but a little discre- ton and the big table between averted a bodily collision.
 The Berham porch ma.ter came up again in the shape of a resolution to the effect that as MT. Benham had not removed what tine council had been pleased to term a nuisance, the city marshal remove it at once, whereat Mir. Benham and his attorney, Judge Kibbey, came before rne council and pleaded for the structure. They agreed to remove the two large buttresses, which constituted the principal objec- tions to the building and the revised plans will be submitted to a special meeting of the council this evening.
 A case similar to that of MT. Benham came up when Creighton and Ambrose applied for permit to build sleeping rooms over the front porch of the Creighton building. The application was referred to the street and alley committee.
 An application of Fifield & Gallagher for permit to erect a porch on the west side OS the C'Neil building was granted.

office to inquire about a statement she had read in The Republican that Miller was going to China in the interest of the San Francisco Examiner. She wanted to know from what source the information had come, for she hardly believed it. She said Miller had weakness for giving out stories of inn aginary expeditions and imaginary per formances. Her excuse for her interest in the matter was that she was ali old friend of the poet and his family.
 The superintendent of the asylum said last night that her case was not a serious one, but that she would be re- stored in a few days.

There was a murmur among the
crew. These dark-skinned fellows were
not all murderers because they were
smugglers. They had liked Torrevo.
and they bore Starne no love for kill
ing him. They liked Rob, and while
they were not the kind to mourn II
they heard of his death somewhere
else. they were not quite ready to have
him killed under their very noses.
Rob heard the murmur, and in
stinctively knew that some of the men
were friendly to him. and opposed to
Starne's brutality. He quickly turned
and addressed them.
Men. l have sailed with you!" he
said. "Torrevo was your friend and
mine. VIII you let this man kill me?"
There was no answer from the crew.

The boat which had brought Torrevo
to shore was there, with two of the
crew.
Where Ell Capitan?" asked one.
II have not seen him." said Rob.
"Is he ashore?"
Him go far. Him leave at night.
Where him go?"
He'll come back all right" said Rob.

Hide from Senior Elvin! Ho! Him

He can't see down in the hold OF
the Black Cat, said Rob.
During the voyage to Brazil and back
many of the crew had grown fond OF
Robin their own savage sort of fond
ness. They all feared Elvin. but none
loved him.
Gomez" said the one who was do
ing the talking.
Rob stepped into the boat. they
showed OFF. and in a few minutes Rob
was on board. The situation was at
once explained by Rob. and the crew
promised to help him. He was snug
ly hidden in the hold. and his last
words were:
III anybody comes after me, don't
say am here. But tell Torrevo when
he comes"
Rob remained for sometime hidden
there, and wondered what kept Torrevo
so long. He could see nothing, hear
| nothing. He could feel the motion OF
the schooner, and knew she was still at
anchor.
At last he heard the sound of the
der way.
"Torrevo has come back" said Rob-
exultingly. Now l am all right"
He still remained hidden for a time

He drew pistol from his belt. AS
he raised 1t to aim at Rob. the boy
suddenly felt giant arm on his, and
he was swung round behind powerful
fellow who took his place before
Starne.
mo shoot! said the dusky giant
Starne, who had now lost all con-
troll of himself, and had no caution in
him, turned white to the lips at this
unexpected interruption.
Get out Of the way!" he yelled. DO
you know that boy is a traitor?"
mo shoot" said the man, stolidly.
He must die!" said Starne. He is
placing us all in danger. He knows all
our secrets. He is the nephew of Hor-
ton, OF Buenos Ayres, and knows that
we have arms stored in the cave:
knows that we are planning to over
throw the government. and knows
who the men are who are with us. II
he lives and escapes from this schoon-
er, he will have us all shot. He did
write letter to his uncle, but got it.
I tell you he must die"

giant, with face that was impassive.

in the crowd.
He berry good boy. What for he
must die?" asked one, who had heard
every word of Starne's explanation.
ITO save your life and mine!" said
Starne. Then, with an angry glance
around, he added, And because say
so. l will not only shoot him. but
every man who interferes, as WELL"
Quick looks of anger greeted this
speech. Starne was not aiding his
cause any by rousing the anger of such
men as these.
Rob, whose senses were rendered
more acute by the danger he was in.
saw at once that Starne had created a
feeling against himself. He was quick
to take advantage of it.
Every man who sticks to me will
be rewarded by my uncle!" he called
out. What II this. man does kill me?
Does he think that the letter he re-
ceived was the only one 1rote? Be-
fore week has passed this gang OF
plotters will be in prison. Where will
you be, then, II you follow him? But

you, and everyone will go free"
At this there was rising sound of
approval in the crowd

CHAPTER XIV.

| A look Of demoniac hate came into
the face OF Lemuel Starne.
"Oh, ho!" he cried. so you are on
board. eh! Well. really, this is quite
a pleasure, Mr.. Rob Cleverdale.
Rob stared In amazement, and felt a
thrill of terror. Then Starne had
learned who he was.
This is quite bit of masquerad-
Ing" continued Starne. pointing to
his Spanish clothes. "A gift from your
dear uncle, l suppose. Your Uncle Ter

He laughed exultantly, and his fam
could be expected from this terrible
foe.

Rob's own letter. and handed it to him.

"Oh, you are sharp enough" said
Rob, resolved not to let this arrant
boaster see how much afraid he really
was. But when the government seizes
you and your gang. then we'll see."
You will never see that time" said
Starne, growing more and more ugly
all the time. and scarcely able to main
tain the composure he had assumed.
He wished to taunt and torture the
young American before he killed him.
The dusky. swarthy crew, seeing that
something unusual was happening, left
their work on board, those who could.
