"You are a prize indeed" he said.
1--WE will keep you. In oDeylhg tne
orders of the ameer and taking to Bo-
khara a bride for the prince we receive
nothing but good words FOR duty done,
while Hafz Effendi gets the money.
But with you we can do as we please.
You are lovely enough to sell to a
prince and line III purses with gold"
.Haye mercy! Have mercy!" cried
Alma. falling on her knees and holding
up her clasped hands in supplication.
Have mercy on my friend who is still
ON the hay! Save his life. set him free
md do with me what you will!
Karakal looked a moment into her
upturned, fearful face. Then, with a
grin, he went on deck.
Push that hayboat OFF, be shouted.
Let the infidel die or escape as he
may. Push him off"
.sIn Gods name do not separate me
from my wife!' shouted Harvey des-
perately.
Your wife." repeated Karakal. with
a laugh. "She does not say so. She
says you are but a friend. she mas
found another friend on the ship,
who is as beautiful as herself, the
daughter of Biartelkis, the merchant
of Tifis. They will get along togeth-
er, and at Bokhara they will become
the brides of princes. But you! We
cannot make money by taking you,
and you might prove troublesome. The
storm is past. You have plenty of
fodder and will not starve. Hay Is
good. All beasts eat hay"
With a shout of laughter b men
showed away with their spears, and as
the wind filled the sails of the long
black sloop Harvey, enraged and filled
with alarm for Alma, was floating
alone on the Caspian on a boat filled
with water. the load of hay settling
deeper and deeper in the sea.
, 1904-07-13

S was MS uanSer, ne reSarueu
it as nothing compared to the danger
that threatened Alma. He was al
most exhausted from hunger, cold and
grief. The boat slowly drifted in a
southern direction, making toward the
eastern side of the Caspian. 1t drift
ed out of the ordinary course of navi-
cation, and he watched in vain for a
passing vessel. He watched as long
as possible the course of the ameer's
sloop and reasoned that it was making
for the nearest Bokharan port. Night
came IN, with no reScuing vessel in
sight. Hour after hour he drifted,
hoping almost against hope, eve think
ing of Alma and of a way to help her.
About midnight il seemed to him that
the rocking motion of the boat had
ceased; that it had become stationary.
Here is a pretty mess!" he exclaim-
ed. II wonder if this old hulk has run
aground. The Caspian Is shallow, but
l did not think a BOA like this could
run aground in the middle of it."
An examination in the dark was not
easy. Harvey slid down the pile of
hay, cropping about with one hand
while he chung for safety with the 9TH
er. He fancied he saw a faint light
glimmering some distance from him,
but it disappeared as suddenly as it
had come. He saw the light again, a
quick passing from one point 10 anoth-
er, but showing for a moment only.
Now. that light is not on a vessel"
Harvey reasoned. 1T is a lantern car
ried around by a person who is walking
on land. If drifted aground here, GER
ta1nly there cannot be water enough at
h a place to float any kind of vessel.
I've probably drifted on the shore of
some island. Is it a hospitable island,
or will be worse off in the clutches of
the inhabitants than where | am? The
wind may drive mt off again before
morning and a vessel pick me up. But
island? And how can I investigate
without attracting attention."
Soon there was another CLEAN of
light such as might come through an
open door from a light within. A man
WAS standing between Harvey and the
light. He seemed to be looking toward
the hayboat, but soon disappeared into
the INT place from which came the
mysterious light.
st is al island" said Harvey. 81 am
now resting on a shoal, and the water
cannot be very deep between this and
the island. I'll swim ashore and risk
it."
He removed some of his clothing,
made a bundle of it and slid off into
the water. To his surprise he could
stand on bottom. Carefully he felt his
way. For a short distance the water
grew more shallow. Then it got deep
er. and he was forced to swim. After
a short swim he again felt the ground
under his feet, and he waded on to dry
land. The shore was sandy.

TWO JAPANESE ARE MISSING.
Jump Overheard From the lndrapura

While the steamship Indrapura was
on her way up the river from Astoria
last Saturday night two Japanese dis
appeared and were probably drowned.
The men were stowaways and were
discovered aboard shortly after the
vessel got away from Yokohama They
had secreted themselves In the hold
Upon coming on deck they were or
dered into irons ON the trip up the

ship, but their absence was not OBJ

manner In which the men came 10

expressed the belief the stowaways
were surely drowned. as they could not
possibly have swum ashore with the
irons attached to them. Many In
stances OF this kind have occurred and

Iieved to be responsible for the dis
appearance of the men.
