A STIRRING STORY.

Three nights after the Sophocles had
left Albany, West Australia. nn out
break OF fire was detected In the store
room. Officers and men alike took
turns In descending into the hold. "As
they went down." said one Of the crew,
''they collapsed and had to be hauled
up again. They were laid out Oh the
matches and brought round, but when-
ever they recovered they were ready
to go down again. The captain himself
was overcome by the fumes. The
fourth officer lost consciousness three
times, and the second officer twice.
Once the latter had to be dragged
from the hold by a life line"
Still, however, the fire made head
way, and the captain determined to
turn back to Fremantle. The Sopho'
cles was then fully 400 miles from that
port. The captains first desire had
been 10 spare his passengers-many OF
whom were ladies-any anxiety, and
he was SO successful in this that only
the gentlemen knew that fire had
broken out. And so, with fire raging
below, the Sophocles made for port
The engines were worked to their ut
most capacity, and the ships hose was
kept constantly playing on the fire
Men were lowered into the holds by
relays. with life lines around their
waists, and worked until they had to
be dragged back to the fresh air and
safety. Night and day they toiled
sustained with little more than cof1ee
and ships biscuits, handed to them by
the ships stewards.
No precaution was omitted to insure
the safety OF the passengers and crew
| in the last resort. The life boats were
surreptitiously provisioned, that tht
ladies might not be alarmed. Thf
officers, when they were not helping tt
| put out the fire. went about their ordi
nary duties with cheerful faces. Ant
stili the women in the after part of tht
ship knew nothing Of their immlnen
danger.
Fremantle was reached at last, ant
all anxiety was put at an end. Tel
days later the Sophocles. her ruinet

with eighty tons of lead bars and log
