But after eight months Pambe fell
sick with pneumonia, contracted from
long standing still in slush; and, much
against his will. he was forced to lay
down in his two-snd- -sixpenny room
raging against fate.
The kind gentleman sat by his bed
side and grieved to find that Pambe
talked in strange tongues. instead OF
listening to good books. and almost
seemed to become "a benighted

call Nurkeed. Quick. God has sent
him.
"He wanted one Of his own race"
said the kind gentleman; and. going out,
he called "Nurkeed" at the top Of his
voice. An excessively colored man in a
rasping white shirt and brand new slops,
a shining hat and breastpin turned
round. Many voyages had taught Nur-
keed how to spend his money and made
him citizen OF the world.

Show him up, sar;;" and he followed into
the room. One glance told the stoker
what the kind gentleman bad over
looked. Pambe was desperately poor.
Nurkeed dove his hands deep into his
pockets, then advanced with clenched
fists on the sick, shouting: "Hya.
Pambe, Hya. Hee- ah! HULA, Heb.
Takilo! Takilo. Make fast aft, Pambe.
You know. Pambe. You know me.
Dekho, jee, Look. -- big fat. lazy

Pambe, beckoned with his left hand.
His right was under his pillow. Nur-
keed removed his gorgeous hat and
stopped over Pambe till he could catch
faint whisper.
"How beautiful said the kind GEN
tleman. ''IIow these Orientals love
like children
"SIit him out" said Nurkeed, leaning
over Pambe more clocely.
Touching the matter of that fish
and onions" said Pambe-and he
sent the knife home under the edge Of
the rib-bone upward and forward.
There was a thick sick cough. and
the body of the African slid slowly from
the bed, his clutching hands letting fall
a shower OF silver pieces that ran across
the room.
.Now / can die," said Pambe.
But he did not die. He was nursed
back to life with all the skill that money
could buy. for the law wanted him; ard
in the end he grew sufficiently healthy
to be hanged in due and proper form.
Pambe did not care particularly; but
it wac sad blow to the kind gentleman.

THE LIMITATIONS OF
PAMBE SERANG.
by RCDYARD KIPLING

Ii you consider the circumstances of
the case. it was the only thing that he
could do. But Pambe Serang has been
hanged by the neck till he is dead. and
Nurkeed is dead also.
Three years ago, when the Elsass-
Lothringen steamer Saarbuck was coal
ing at Alden and the weather was very
hot indeed. Nurkeed, the big fat Zanzi.
bar stoker who fed the second right
furnace thirty feet down in the hold, got
leave to 60 ashore He departed a
"Seedee boy" as they call the stokere;
he returned the full-fsdged sultan Of
Zanzibar-His Highness Sayyid Bur
gash. with bottle in each hand. Then
he sat on the forehstch grating. eating
salt fish and opions, and singing songs
OF far country. The food belonged to
Pambe. the Serang or head man of the
Lascar sailors. He had just cooked it
for himself, turned to borrow some salt,
and when he came back Nurkeed's dirty
black fingers were spading into the rice.
The Serang is person of Importance.
far above stoker, though the stoker
draws better pay. He sets the chorus
of "Hya! HULA! Heeah. Heb" when the
captains gig is pulled up to the davits;
he heaves the lead, too; and, sometimes,
when all the ship is lazy. he puts on his
whitest muslin and big led sash and
plays with the passengers children on
the quarterback. Then passengers give
him money, and he saves it up for an
orgie at Bombay or Calcutta or Pulu
Penang.
"Oh. you fat black barrel. you're eat
ing my food" said Pambe. in the Other
Lingua Franco that begins where the
Levant tongue stops, and runs from
Port Said eastward till east is west, and

.'Son OF Eblis, monkey-face, dried
sharks liver, pig-man, / am the Sultan
Sayyid Burgash. and the commander Of
all this ship. Take away YOUR garbage"
and Nurkeed thrust the empty pewter
rice plate into Pambe's hand.
Pambe beat ii into basin over Nur-
keed's head. Nurkeed drew his sheath.
knife and stabbed Pambe in the leg.
Pambe drew his sheath knife, but Nur-
keed dropped down Tito the darkness Of
the hold and spat through the grating
at Pambe, who was staining the clean
foredeck with his blood.
Only the white moon saw these things.
for the officers were looking after the
coaling and the passengers were tossing
in their close cabins. "All right said
Pambe-and went forward to tie up his
leg-"we will settle the account later
on"
He was Malay born in India; married
once in Burma, where bis wife run
cigar shop on the Shwe-Dagon road;
once in Singapore. to Chinese girl; and
once in Madras. to Mohammedan wo-
man, who sold fowls. The English
sailor can not, owing to postal and tele-
graph facilities, marry as profusely as
he used to; but native sailors can, being
uninfiuenced by the barbarous inven-
tions Of the western savage. Pambe was
a good husband when he happened to
remember the existence Of wife; but
he was also very good Malay; and it is
not wise to offend Malay, because he
does not forget anything. Moreover, in
Pambe's case blood had been drawn and
food spoiled.
Next morning Nurkeed rose with
blank mind. He was no longer sultan
