offerings sold up to 26c

gentleman, in a long military cloak,
and soft black hat with wide
brim. Fer few men stood with their
heads above the line of her bulwarks,
straining their vision in evident
alarm and amazement at their pur-
suer.
The boatswain had leveled the long
piece fair at the stranger, when Pope
saw that she had put her helm down
and was slowly rounding, with faint
tremor of canvas, as though fear
shook her into the winds eye In
stantly the captain began to roar out
orders. "A boat was lowered, twelve
men armed with cutlasses and pistols
tumbled into her. Pope took charge
with q sword at his side and pistol
in his bosom; and Crystal with folded
arms and a stern black face, stood
at the quarterback railing looking
on.
The boat swept alongside Pope and
eleven men sprang aboard with
fiuorished cutlasses, but so far from
meeting with any resistance they
found clear deck. One figure alone
remained. He was the tall man in
the cloak and black soft hat.
He was noble-loolzing old gentle
man, perhaps seventy years Of age,
wonderfully erect, a martial figure.
He threw his head back when Pope
approached and exclaimed in a calm
deep voice:
why have you boarded me, sir?@
Pope answered, I'VE are gentlemen
Of fortune. We are sailing the high
seas in search Of an estate and you'll
help us in that quest"
He could not but be deferential to
the fine old fellow. He was a gentle
man by birth, an Irishman. the son
OF a clergyman. and no fierce and
bloody pirate as yet.

So the order was given for the guns
to be loaded, and the small arms
served out. They loaded the carron-
AIDES, and ran them out. The two long
guns were also loaded; the boats we're
seen to, all was made clear for action.
Hoist the ensign said Pope.
Haul up your courses, and back the

The little vessel was hove-to right
athwart the course Of the approaching
craft, which might now be some two
or three miles off. The sails of the
stranger we're remarkably white.

tai, looking at Pope, who made no
answer.
The stranger came ripping along
toward the brig with pathetic unsus-
piciousness. And she was now within
half mile. perhaps within reach of a
trumpet, when all of sudden, as
though the Gypsy's true character
had been discovered, her length of
broadside with its high sheer of bow,
like smack's of these days, drew
out, and she was off
Fill on your fore-topsail, Mr. Crys-
tal," roared Pope. @Grindal jump for

Tom after her, as the brig brings her

The boatswain rushed forward.

stood in chase.

CRYSTALS face cleared a little and he
smoked thoughtfully and in silence.
Pope eyed him askant, somewhat
darkly, but on meeting his gaze his
face lighted up with one Of his fine
cordial, Irish smiles 1t was clear
from this and further discourse they
held that they had as yet formed no
plans after they had obtained as much
plumber as would satisfy them.
The crew made merry in the dog
watches that evening, wearied as they
well might be after the labors Of the
night Just before shutdown the boat
swain Grindal lurched through the
yellow sheen to the quarterback.
Captain Pope" said he, "the men
ha'n't seen their flag yet Is there
any objection to its being hoisted, that
all hands may make sure of the colors
they sail under?D
Certainly" says Pope with great
heartiness. Pipe all hands aft and
let them salute the flag with a glass
of grog apiece"
Grindal chirruped somewhat tipsily,
and the crew came tumbling on to the
main deck. A bucket of gin was
drawn and the hands were ordered
not to drink till the flag tloated over
them.
Pope went to the fag-locker just
Rbaft the wheel and took out little
Dale Of stuff that was like pail rolled
up. He bent this weired flag to the
main-royal signal halyards. Then took
turn round his hand and shouted
TO his man to bring him and Crystal
glass Of grog. He then addressed
few words to the pirates, and,
tweaking the line he held, the flag
at the masthead broke and blew out
large, glossy, and black at the ravens
wing again the fading scarlet over
head.
The whole ships company roared
out three cheers, and then drank. the

The night passed quietly; and the
day came along draped in sober gray,
with long lead-colored swell freclkled
by some sea-fowl within gun-shot Of
the quarter. In the afternoon Of this
day, the sky being gray and dry and
the sea-line clear, sail sprang up
right ahead. The two captains were
at dinner when the boatswain put his
ugly face into the skylight and report
ed her. Both came up leisurely
knowing the wind TO be little more
than small draught, Pope with his
radiant spyglass under his arm. He
leveled it at the sail; Crystal peered
at her through the briggs telescope.
Shall we attack her or pass her
with civil salute?" said Pope.
Speak, Crystal"
The square man considered. When
he spoke his speech was slow, his de.
livery solemn and he looked fierce

But why sir? But why?" cried
his lordship, suddenly exhibiting
signs of agitation. What would you

my vessel and the men? Name the
price of a ransom, sir?" He stretched
forth his hand, which trembled ex.
ceedingly. ANY sum in reason you
shall have, If you will suffer me to

Pope cooked his ear at the word
ransom; it gave his an idea wholly
new to him. He reflected, staring into
the eager gaze Of my lord kept fast
ened upon him. Then his face
heightened, he glanced at his men
who stood near, and said to the noble
man:
We're not brigands, we can't talk
of ransoms. You and your crew must

Many Citizens of Lewiston Protest Against Grant.
ing Franchise to Nezperce CO.Opera.
tive Telephone Company

The telephone company for the past
few days, has been circulating a re-
monstrance against the granting Of a
franchise to an opposition telephone
company, allowing them to establish
an additional exchange in Lewiston.
The petition was signed by a con-
siderable number of the business men
and it would seem that the sentiment
against having two exchanges is very
general.
Mr.. McGillivray was seen today and
said: I'VE are willing to go ahead
and install a common battery multiple
system. provided we are given some
assurance that a telephone war would
not be precipitated on us. We will pre-
sent to the council tonight, a written
statement, signed by myself and duly
approved by our president Mr.. Sabin,
in which will be set forth, i'm detail
the work we propose to do, binding
ourselves to complete it within GER
tain specified time.
This would give Lewiston a tele-
phone plant such as only few towns
on the Pacific coast now have, and
know of very few towns in the east
with the population that Lewiston has
where this class of telephone service is
installed
