which the island abounded, and sailed
them down, and caught and cured a
great quantity of fish which was TAX
en- to Auckland New Zealand) every
few months in a small cutter they
owned, or sold TO the Whaleships, to-
gether> with the salt pork and vege-
tables. The house was large and COM
fortably furnished, and the only dis
turbing element in their lives was the
frequent shocks of earthquakes which
shook the island.
During the time that the firewood
was being shipped, Christie stayed on
shore at the settlers house, and his
health improved slightly by the rest;
Tom remained with him at night, but
during the day spent his time with
two of the settlers sons. either shoot
ing pigeons, which were very plenti-
full in the mountain forest, or fishing
in the deep waters of the bay in which
the steamer was anchored. Meanwhile
the energetic Clancy and his men had
altered the fire bars of the steamer 8
furnaces, so that either wood or coal
could be burned, and Christie was we'll
pleased, when on the evening of the
third day he went on board, and found
every available inch of deck space piled
up with logs of firewoOd as high as
the sheerpOles, with only narrow alley
ways on each side of the ship, so that
the hands could pass fore and aft with
out inconvenience when working the
running gear if the vessel should be
under canvas only And Christie had
great hopes of meeting with strong
northeasterly winds in the vicinity of
the Paumotu archipelago. and so still
further economic his fuel.
During his stay on the island the
hOspitable settler had several times
pressed Tom to remain there for an
other month, when he would give him
passage to New Zealand, but Tom.
who had only told him as much of his
story as he deemed advisable declined
the offer with many thanks. One rea-
son for this was, that he was now GER
tain that Miss Denison and his sister
knew of his safety, and that he would
return home Sooner or later; another
was that he had in a manner pIedged
himself to Christie to stay with and
assist him with the navigation of the
steamer during his. illness; and third
ly, and lastly, his whole soul was
aflame with the desire for adventure
and the wild longing to see strange
lands and strange peoples, and he often
congratulated himself upon his knoWI-
edge OF Spanish, now that he would
certainly see South America. Perhaps
TOO, he might come across his former
friend Bob SetenhouSe, although Cal
lao was long cry from Valparaiso
where Bob was living. Then. too. three
OF the male members of the Bell fam
lily, who had made voyages to the Arc
TIC IN American whaleships, had fired
MIN with the desire to do the same
thing, and a wide vista of HIS fut11ra
lay before him like some great and IN
Known sea suddenly revealed to one
who, standing upon a mountain ton
sees 1t lying before him gIinting and
sparkling under the roseate glories of
the rising sun.

CHAPTER XIII.

The captain Of the Aztec City was a
Scotchman, named Seaton two of his
officers were Americans, and the crew
of five and twenty were, he informed
Clancy, a collection of dead-beat loaf
ers and thieves, put on board by the
Frisco Crimping houses
He told Clancy his story as briefly
as possible. The steamer which was
a cumbersome, and very old vessel of
sixteen hundred tons, had sailed from
San Francisco nearly six weeks before
for Sydney, via Honolulu, carrying a
number Of saloon passengers for both
ports. A week after leaving Honolulu
the crew began TO show a mutinOus
disposition, and ended up by broaching
cargo, and providing themselves with
all the liquor they wanted. Then to
add to Captain SeatOn's troubles, the
steamer Sprang a leak, and although
some Of the crew had worked at the
pumps fairly well. most of them had
told the officers that the ship could
go down as far as they were concerned,
and they had plenty of liquor and pro-
visions in the fo'scle. But" Seaton
went on. 1--WE have a bit of a pull on
them. Last night my officers and 1
managed to secure ten of them after
bit of a tussle, in which pistols were
used on both sides, though no one was
killed. / have the bTutes safely in irons
now in the after-part of the ship. where
they can't be rescued, and where a
diet Of biscuit each and water for
three or four days, will take some of
the deviltry out of them. The rest
of them are a little more civil this
morning, but I can't trust them, and
am afraid they will set the ship on fire.

and the shrill cries of thousands of
green and golden-hued parakeets feed
ing upon the sweet berries Of the baso1
"a species of cedar.
It was nearing sunset when Tom and
his companions returned. Each of the
natives had shot a goat, and Tom had
as many pigeons as he could carry.
He had had a delightful day, for in
addition to excellent sport he had as
cended to the summit of the highest
peak, and examined the ruins of an an
cient native fortification which crown
ed it; and then 1000 feet below he had
seen the placid blue waters of Ahurie
harbor shining in the sun with here
and there tiny moving specks, which
he knew were canoes passing to and
fro between the 'AStec City and the
shOre,g or engaged in fishing.
AS they came into the village they
were met by the young sailor Frank,
who had been anxiouSly waiting Toms
return for some hours.
1.-The captain is very i'll, sir, so. i'll
that the priest thinks he cannot last
through the night. And he wants to
see you"
Throwing down his birds, and giving
his gun to Toa, Tom, with Frank. set
off towards the mission house, which
was a mile distant, and halfway up
the verdured side of a spur OF the
mountain he had just descended.

Synopsis of Installments l to "
Tom DenisOn and his sister Sabbie are
left in charge of their Aunt Christina,
owing to the death of their father and
mother at the hands of bushrangers in
Tasmania. Aunt Christine is a woman
who has lived all her life in the
cramped environment of an English
country village, and has very little idea
as TO the management of boys. Tom
is spirited lad, but kindly withaL,
who has made up his mind to a life
al sea, in which determination, he has
been encouraged by an old sea captain,
for attending whose death-bed Tom has
got into severe trouble with his aunt.
A kindly clergyman, Canon Cooper,
recOnciles the pair, and persuades Aunt
Christina to try more lenient methods
with the lad. There is not much time
allowed for the exercise of this better
understanding, however, for on return
ing from town in his boat Tom is blown
out of the harbOr and Is picked up
by a strange steamer about whose
movements there is an air OF the great
est mystery. Though in partial ignOr-
ance of what kind of a ship he is on
Tom soon becomes reconciled to his lot
His aunt in the meantime has received
a letter from the captain of the ship
announcing Toms position, and on in
quiry IN Sydney she finds that the
ship is the WaTrigal belonging to a
Mr.. PattermOTe, from whom Christie,
the man who has picked up Tom, has
stolen her
