and the firm jaw of the young six

Puzzled and troubled, Bradley ex-
tended his hand. and the captain
clasped it firmly in his own. For a
moment it seemed that he was about
to say something more, but he did not.
Giving the second mates hand a
squeeze, he dropped it and settled
back in his chair, smoking and appar-
emily thinking hard As he thought his
lips frightened. and the Scowl settled
more firmly between his brows Five
minutes of silence. and then the skip
per threw the half finished cigar into
a corner and rose to his feet His tone
was sharp. and there was no trace Of

He went on deck Immediately and,
after moment, Bradley followed him.
The rebuff was so unexpected and so
undeserved. the circumstances con-
sidered that it hurt the young man
keenly His pride was touched, and
he made NJ his mind that Captain Tit
comb should have no further cause for
complaint 50 far as interference by his
second officer was concerned. AS for
the captain. he kept to himself and said
little to an one during the afternoon.
The new first mate came on board
that evening. He was a thick set
ieavy man, who talked a great deal,
swore profusely and laughed loudly at
his own jokes. He seemed TO know his
business aud, as the captain would
have said. caught hold at once.

Bradley thought of his conversation
with Captain Titcomb and the affair
did not seem 50 miraculous. but lie
knew the captain would not wish him
to explain and so said nothing.
