They were crossing the bay when the
accident occurred and the young skipper
dug his heels very angrily into the deck
planks of the brIGge and listened to the
adorned tale of the engineer with a su-
perabundance Of patience The surplus
expression Of Mr. Jameson was at times
particularly appalling, and covered more
than half of his story The pitch of it
was this: The crank shaft of the tramp
Tudor had long since seen and ended it's
better days, and having lately been sa-
verely worked by the hard d-iven en-
gines had from sheer ami utter wear
ness of an oVertaXei old age, fa' len into
sections on the flooring of the engine
room.
When the expansive account was fin
ished. Capt Bennett put a question TO the
engineer:
can you fix her up, ami how long
would the job take?"
The engineer thoGghtfully applied a
wad Of grease black waste to his Pc

triumph over your enemy, to be too sar-
castlc-for the tables may turn" He
looked hard and earnestly astern where
three faint lines and the bulge of a
steamers blue funnel pricked the clouds.
Meanwhile the Tudor and her bait were
connected, during which the owner ana
master Of the Miltiades groaned at his
folly. 1t was the moral of the proceed
ings that hurt him most.
So, with all arranged, Bennett rang up
his engines full" and shouted down the
engine room tube, Mr.. Jamie1)n, some
dirty weathers coming on. Give it her
for all she's worth. You save the oranges
and Ill save your neck. Though, you
beggdr," he mumbled as he capped the
brass piping, you don't deserve IT,"
Then he glanced at the big oncoming
steamer, hull down, and, blessing his
luck, set his course along the great
steamer track straight for the rock ISL

During the dark hours the Tudor with

uGly seas of Biscay bay in grim SOL
eInnity and loneliness.
Two gaunt and very ragged looking
tTysails and staysails ballooned from her

hardly have been Of use to an up to date
mail boat, much less to the Tudor, built

sire proVokingly turned her fat bows to
al points Of the compass, and waliowed
and poked in the shimmering crested

Her enraged skipper watched her
movements as he paced athWart the

seas, dipping her ugly nose as she came
and exhibiting a round, rusty side to
the glinting red of the sinking sun
The stranger, no doubt seeing the Sig
nails flying from the Tudors masthead
and span, and interpreting them as the
promise of something that lay rich to
