he's sober and come to his senses" He
went below.

said Greig. eff do I'll be strung up to

And just then Brogger was sitting UP
in his bunk chewing his fingers and trying
to reconstruct the lost days. He had
elusive visions of strange interiors; he
tasted strange drinks; his head ached
with horrid drugs; he recalled strange
snatches of talk by strangers. And out
of the phantasmagoria of his jumbled
vision there came sometimes the power
full and brutal face of Chance of the firm
of Chance &, Bluffson.
Some hit me-" he said aloud. And
Jack Eales, who was wide awake, heard
him. Where am I? I'm in a dirty
fo'c's'1e." He seemed to remember vague
ly that he had been out on deck in the
night. He looked up and saw Eales'
face dimly. What ships this?" he
asked
1T amt ship" said Eales, "this is
Hades'
Brogger showed his head dismally.
at amt -youre jokin' with me- What
am I dom here? Is this my ship?"
You was shipped in her. said Eales.
You came aboard in Astoria. Your
names Juggins.

they says, to add to it all And it's a

"In go-In go aft" said Brogger

Just then in came one of the port watch,

Turn out, turn out, my bully boysi"
The starboard watch yawned and
groaned and grunted and showed TN

tea and grub.

UNWARRANTED ASSUMPTION

| T was at the summer school for teachers.
The professor of sociology was young and
good-looking, also he lecturing.
At the end of the first form sat the substi-
tute teacher. She too was young, and her
gown of shimmery stuff was immensely be-
coming to her. Of the latter fact the SUBJ
stitute teacher entirely aware SO she sat
with downcast eyes and seemed demurely I'M
conscious when the professor of sociology ad
dressed some of his most brilliant remarks
directly to herself.
The professor of sociology was speaking of
marriage; but something-his youth perhaps.
or the subtle influence of the summer weather
had lightened the gravity of his theme in
such wise that he handled it playfully, and
half reverently half humorously, he quoted
the final sentences of the ceremony used by
the church. His voice was pleasant. the last
words of the well-known formula falling melli-
fuously from his lips. AS he ended, he
turned again with smile and bow to the
substitute teacher.
THERE he said impressively. "See how
easily you are given awayl"
The substitute teacher raised her shy eyes,

have it, the first person he ran against
was the new skipper, who looked at him
| fercely.
Where the deuce are you running
tor" asked Greig, giving him a push in
the chest that sent him reeling.
Pm Captain Brogger," said Brogger
with the most lamentably mean air of
dignity 1t sat on him like frock-coat
on a gorilla.
THE deuce you are!" said Greig. so
you're still drunk? Mr.. Plump, do you
recognize this mani"
Plump truly denied that he saw the
least resemblance to the dead skipper
Call Mr.. Dodman," said Greig
Dodman said he couldnt see the faintest
likeness.
Then how do know you ALI" asked
Brogger.
Its my belief you sailed with us
| three voyages back, " said Dodman. Il
seem to have seen you somewhere
That will dor said Greig go r'ard
and behave yourself, or you'll find out,
whether you're Brogger or Juggins or the
Lord Muck from Bog Island, that I'm
Captain here. Bo'sun, set this man to
work, and keep your eye on him!"
And Brogger went for ard like lamb,
and in less than two shakes of lambs
tail he found himself getting paint out of
the bo'sun's store-room in company with
Curlett and Jack Eales
What's all this bally paint for, Cur
1ett?" asked Jack.
Blamed if l know!" said his mate.
But the other men were rigging up
stages, and getting them over the side,
while the bo'sun mixed the paint. 1t
was blue. The bo'sun went up to the
new hand and took him by the collar
Ere, you skew-pin, take this pot and
this brush and get down in this
stage!"
"What for?" asked Brogger. I'm
Pm"
"Oh, no, you amt" said the bo'sun
quickly, you amt him by a long
sightl"
Its blue paint" said Brogger weakly.
Its b1ue!"
Very blue" replied the bo'sun dryly.
"And all that's white you'll paint blue
He half lifted Brogger on the rail,
and watched him Chamber down upon
the stage. A strange quick ripple of

to Ea1es, who was sitting on the stage
with him.
Its good sea compliment to them
that's gone" said Eales. Paint, you
beggar, paintl"
The bosun put his head over the rail
eff you don't get to work, Juggins, I'll
have to come down there and talk with
you" -
The man who was spoken to knew of
old what terror the bo'sun could be,
if he liked He shivered, and dipped his
brush in paint. After he had made
few feeble strokes the bosun's head dis
appeared, and Brogger whispered to Eales
"Who's it for?"
It's for poor old Brogger, said Eales:

TO BOOST COTTON
HIGH HOPES FOR SUCCESS OF
THE NEW BULL POOL.
A GIGANTIC COMBINE PLANNED
Backers of the Gigantic Combire Are
R.ch and Capable Men-Won't
Go Below 10 Cents.

New Orleans, La, Oct. 2.-F-aak B.
Hayne, famous cotton man, returned
to New Orleans yesterday after three
months stay in the East. He brings
the first direct personal news of the
new bull cotton pool forming in New
York He is a member Of it. Although
refusing to discuss the personnel of
the pool, Mr.. Hayne declared it his be-
lief that this would be the most gi-
gantic combination of cotton operators
ever formed and that the cotton cam
paign would be even more effective
than the previous one, when the cotton
market of the world was virtually
cornered Mr.. Hayne stated that the
cotton bull pool, of which SO much
has been said in the past three months,
Is not myth of the newspapers, but
is in actual existence. The men FORM
ing the deal are very rich men and,
taken as a whole, the pool is the
strongest that has been organized, and
Is well able to take care of any deal
which they undertake. This pool, he
said, has been bullish since July, and
he himself had been bullish since July,
Il believe cotton is cheap at the pres
ent price," said he, land l think that
the crop will not be more than 10,50O,-
900 bales. believe that the crop will
be moderate one, while the consump-
tion will be enormous. | do not think
that any month will sell below 10
cents for the whole year."

JAPAN'S BIG BLAZE.
Army Storehouse at Hiroshima Has
Been Burning for IL Hours.


Toxic: A fire that broke out in an
army storehouse at Hiroshima at l
O'Clock yesterday morning and contin-
ued for more than three hours de-
stroyed twenty temporary buildings,
ing principally of provisions and cloth
ing. The cause of the fire is being
investigated. A large portion of the
clothing was removed from the new
storehouse before the fire started. The
extent of the damage is believed to be
comparatively slight. There was no
loss of life.
A later telegram from Hiroshima
says that the fire was still burning
at | o'clock yesterday afternoon. In
addition to the twenty buildings con-
tanning clothes and provisions, seven
others filled with fodder were Destroy
ed Although the buildings were con-
structed of light material, they con-
tanned an enormous amount of stored
goods, and the structures being Of in
fammable nature, the flames were dlf-
ficult to extinguish, despite the despe-
rate efforts OF the troops. The fire
was discovered at O'Clock and sprea
with great rapidity. 1t was probably
of incendiary origin. The loss is va
riously estimated at from $2.O00,O0O
to S5.OOO,0OO.

The Mississippi Valley Road Suffering
From Floods.
Vicksburg, Miss, Sept. 30.-The
Steady rains of the past two days have
done considerable damage in this Sec
tionfi though not in the city proper.
The cotton fields are feeling the effects
badly, while the truck farms are also
damaged. Owing to the washout at
Bayou Pierre, near Port Gibson, all
railroad traffic on the New Orleans d.
vision between New Orleans and
Vicksburg is annulled. There has been
only one passenger train each way ev-
cry day for five or six weeks. and the
washout annuls everything.
Superintendent Porterfield and Road
master Downs are camped at the scene
of the trouble with large force.

Vardaman's BLESSING.

Washington: The following dispatch
from Governor Vardaman OF MISSISSIPPI

Hon. H. d. Money, Philadelphia: I
