Then the five rogues and their mate,
Crystal, entered their boat and rowed
toward the Gypsy, which lay athwart
with her head at south.
There was a single cabin window in
the stern of the snow, and when they
had got it in view they saw it was
open-a heavy glazed frame-and the
woman stood in the middle of it like
a picture.
rope was looking through his glass
at the woman in the window.
Il did not notice that window in her
cabin" said he to Crystal while the
men were hosting the boat. What
does she say"
IF | was a Prussian could tell yer,
Pope" answered Crystal.
"Our leaving that ship af1oat and
the people in her to be rescued and
to tell their story proves, Jonathan,
that we are new to our trade" says
Pope grimly. The old red-pawed
wolf, after sacking her, would have
sunk her and all she contained, living
and dead. But l am determined to
carry out my scheme" says he, with
one of his arch looks, "as politely as
possible. And you know I've been
praying while you've been away that
We may have the luck to fall in with
one Of Duncan's or Peterson's ships"
These had been among those whom
he and Crystal had served. and Peter
son was the man who had made prom
ises of command to Crystal which he
did not keep. Crystal ground his
teeth.
All the morning was passed in stow
ing away the plumber and repairing
the trifiing damages aloft. Shortly
after eight bells (noon) the Prussian
brig was on the horizon and a large
ship was apparently heading for her
Pope watched them with curiosity;
| the large ship passed the brig and
sailed on. and by two O'Clock the plum
dered vessel was out of sight. The
! Gypsy was held to her course of west
| by south and no notice was taken of
the ships in sight. Not likely that
Pope would plumber in the sight of
help. He wanted darkness or a lonely
sea girdle.
In the afternoon Pope and the other
captain walked the deck together and
talked over their plans and hopes
The seamen in various parts of the
brig loafed and lounged, and some at
tended to such trifiing jobs as the
boatswain put them to, and all of
them smoked to a man.
Il should like to know" said Crys-
tai, taking Pope's cigar from his hand
to light his pipe afresh with it, "It
you've got any more fixed and clear
ideas as to the division and the Sc
curing, every man, to the plumber
his whack; for" he suffered, Sup
pose | am to take up a thousand
pound"
"A plague on your modesty," inter
rupted Pope.
Five thousand pound then" cried
Crystal, shouting the words with some
momentary emotion of excitement
How do you propose that I'm to deal
with that lump Of metal so as to bring
1t OFF without being challenged, tried
and hanged?"

while the pirate crew came storming
to the quarterback.
Forward with ye," yelled Pope,
flourishing his sword about the ears
Of the fat captain.
Away with ye." bawled Crystal,
striking the mate a thump between
the shoulders which set him running.
And amid cries and excavations, and
the stamp of feet, and the laughter of
men along the rail of the Gypsy, the
whole of the crew, with the immense
swelled captain among them, were
swept forward and tumbled into the
forecastle through the little scuttle
and battened down.
A few of the men were left on deck.
The others followed Captain Pope and
Captain Crystal down the companion
hatch into the strangers living room.
A lamp of several tints of glass
burned under the little skylight. I'm
der the lamp, at a square table, per-
fectly visible in the white luster that
streamed downward, sat a stout wom-
an in a hat with a large feather
trembling round it. and two immense
Iy thick lengths of hair pale as hay
lying in braids like sennit upon her
back. She held her fat hands clasped
upon her lap, and some fine rings
flashed upon them. Pope took heed
of this. He made her one of his lofty
bows and exclaimed, Good evening,
madame, do you speak English?'
She stared at him motionless. He
her with that tongue. She continued
to stare at him. Pope, though a pi-
rate, was not pickpocket, and find
ing the lady mute, stirless and sense
less with terror, he cast his eyes at
the rings upon her fingers, and at a
bright gold chain round her neck. He
put his hand upon the rings. Instant
ly the poor woman sent up an ear
splitting shrek, yet she remained
seated, though she fell back in heI
chair.
Il don't mean to hurt YOU" said the
captain. But" and grasping her
wrist he deXterousTy drew the rings
off her fingers, pocketed them, and
with great agility whipped the gold
chain over her hat. These things the
captain put into his pocket.
Crystal came out of the afterhold
of the main and reported the contents
So far as it was possible to gather by
the light of the candle and the bulls
eye, he had discovered cheeses, hams
some casks of what he thought might
prove Hollands, casks of moist sugar
and many cases of tobacco.
The other cabins contained little
that was useful or valuable. Pope
went on deck. The weather remained
very dark and quiet. The locked yes
sci rolled softly on the long breathing
of the sea, with an occasional thumI
or jerk that was made SOL and harm
less by tenders.
The ten armed seame- who had fol
lowed the two captains into the yes

Crystal, likewise the woman, must
be kept locked up till the horizons

released. I'm for having her stuff

You're right, cap'en," shouted one
of the seamen.
Get these yards braced forward
Mr.. Crystal" said Pope, Il leave you
in charge here"
He went quickly forward into the
bows, listened attentively, but no
sound proceeded from the imprisoned
men below. Then in leap or two he
gained the deck of his own brig.

Pope sat down on ms rKynghr ant
his square companion seated himself
beside him.
Il quite agree with you." says Pope,
that burying schemes ought not to be
entertained I'll not lightly hazard
what it will have kept my neck IN
jeopardy to get But should not the
egg first be laid before we talk of
sitting upon it?"
"Ay, but consider this" exclaimed
Crystal, glancing at the fellow at the
helm, who was trying to overhear
them: you're going to cruise in such
degrees for certain ship. She ap-
pears on a sudden" Pope rolled UP
his eyes with devotional look. 1--WE
board her: we find as much treasure
as will satisfy u.s." Again Pope looked
up to heaven, and the man at the
wheel, catching the word treasure,
strained his neck. "And so you've
got your egg" continued Crystal, "in
a manner of speaking all in minute.
Should not the Matching of it have
been settled? AS soon as we've got
what we want you and nell wish to
go clear"
LAS fast as we can storm through
it," answered Pope.
Then, sir, we ought to have our
plans cut and dried now that we are
heading for the Spaniards course"
Crystal said, burying a dark-ended
stump of forefinger in the bowl of his
pipe and going to the side to spit into
the sea.
Pope smiled at his square vigorous
figure, and on his returning said,
The scheme I'm disposed to fix upon
is this: We shall doubtless fall in
with small vessel of handy size, aft
er we have looted the Spaniard. You
will take charge, and | will man her
with a few of the best of our people.
We will sail in company till We come
to the place that's agreed upon by all
hands; we will then transfer our share
Of the booty to your vessel, and | shall
surrender the brig and the mems
share of plumber remaining in her, to
them. What dye say" asked Pope.
with a twinkle in his eye that was like
a raindrop trembling in a breeze.
Crystals face worked with the
chewing of the cud of thought. He
said, When take charge of the other
vessel all the plumbers to be left
aboard here?"
Till we come to an agreed place"
answered Pope ut is q scheme"
said he with a shrug, seeing disaffec-
ton in the square mans countenance.

snap his finger.
And where will this brig go?"

Look to Your Sleeyes.

The changes in the sleeves. like
those Of other parts of the dress, are
gradual, but steady. The undersleeve
effect is paving the way for the long,
sloping shoulder that belonged to our
grandmothers' gowns. To match
that, bodice trimmings will slip lower
on the corsage and the peculiar fall.
ing off effect that we see in old
daguereotypes will before long be in
vogue. This effect is already notice
able in some of the models intended
for high-class trade-the trade that
deals with the individual rather than
with the class. The first token of this
oncoming, style is seen in the pushing
up of the puff from the wrist toward
the shoulder. Some French models
sent over have, in fact, the well-de-
fined shoulder puff that was worn for
ty years ago in the days of hoop
skirts and berthas.

Velvet TRIMMING,

Chiffon velvet is a new and very
beautiful trimming material, and one
which will not become too common,
as its price puts it beyond the reach
of most purses. The material is so
light in weight and so soft in texture
that a half yard can easily be
crushed in the palm of ones hand. 1t
comes in all the new shades and is es-
pecially lovely in mauve and purple
tones.

With WaIkinu Skirts.

Very short wash petticoats or silk
knickerbockers should be worn I'M
der the walking skirt. 1t is impossi-
BILE to keep a petticoat of the usual
length clean and trim for any length
of time after going into rain and mud,
and considerations of health as well
as of daintiness demand a suitable
undergarment for rainy weather wear.
There is no way in which women may
take cold more quickly than by hav-
ing a mass of damp ruffles whisking
around the ankles or shoe tops.

pack it in small oranges. Cut the or

cream frozen very stiff, press togeth-
er and lay on ice for the short time
before serving. If the halves do not
adhere, tie with narrow white rib.

This also trims the short bolero, the

Blue Wolfe Skirt and White Waist.
A pretty frock for pretty little girl
has a skirt of navy blue voile. 1t is
laid in sun-ray plaits,. which fall from
a pointed yoke. With this is worn a
shirt waist of fine white linen
trimmed with Mexican drawn work.
A fiat Panama hat goes prettily with
this simple little outfit. The plated
skirt is ideal for small girls, as it
gives so much freedom from heavy,
clinging materials. Such a skirt,
when made of light serge or brillian-
tine. will keep it's shape for months.

In a lecture delivered in Chicago re-
Gently DR.. Lyman Abbott said: De-
stroy the home, and the nation will
perish; destroy the nation and leave
the home, and the nation will grow
up afresh.' It goes without saying
that the learned editor of the Outlook
uttered a great truth. He might have
added that the patriot and philanthro-
pist of today can engage in no nobler
cause than in furthering any move
which looks to providing homes for
the homeless. Millions of those who
now toll in our larger eastern cities
never can and never expect to have
their own homes in the city. A rent
ed "home" is not a home in the full
sense of the word. The preservation
Of what remains of the public lands
for actual settlers and home builders
and their reclamation by national ir-
rigation works, is q work than which
there is no surer way to preserve the
nation, for it will open the gate to real
homes for millions now homeless.
