Still grumbling over the cold injus-

from an adjacent locker. As the con.

more eloquent and convincing, and
the mate grudgingly acknowledged
the beauty of the proposed scheme,

in which he finally promised to play
his part. A stipulation that his officer
should personally superintend the
loading of the death-dealing weapon
was cheerfully acceded to by the tri-
umphant captain.
Mrs. Bardell and her pretty daugh.
ter, arriving on board the good ship
Uncas the following morning, were
fiattered and surprised by the manner
of their reception. Capt. Boggs, re-
splendent in a gold-braided cap and
jacket, the latter glittering with high
ly polished brass buttons, swelled per-
ceptibly with exultant pride as he
bowed magnificently to his visitors.
He almost regretted the fact that the
Uncas, being engaged solely in cargo
traffic, carried no other passengers
who might have witnessed his exalted
state. The dignity of the proceedings
was somewhat married by the ire
pressible grins of the deckhands who
formed the escort Of the party, but
with this trifiing exception all passed
off smoothly.
From the moment the Uncas cast
off from the wharf at Buffalo and COM
menced her voyage, the autocratic
sway of Capt. Boggs assumed truly
gorgeous proportions. The crew, en-
tering into the spirit of the thing,
cringed before his scowl like the alb
ject subjects of some savage mon
arch. His slightest orders were is,

crew tried to murder me-"
How awful" breathed the girl,
while her mother groaned in horror.
"Did-did you shoot anyone?'

briskly. 1T was their lives or mine,
you see."
Il had no idea such terrible things

Bardell, thoughtfully. Strange that
the papers never mention anything
about it,

veracious Mr., Boggs. "'Sides which
the owners are rich men with lots of

hushed up, so that the public don't
get to hear of it."
But there's your mate" suggested
the girl. "He-he's such quiet.
good-looking fellow, and not a bit
like ruffian."
The captain eyed her suspiciously.
Looks amt everything" he COM
mented grumpily. "Brennans as bad
as the rest, only he knows what to ex-
pect If he bats his eye at me-"
Miss Bardell said no more, but her
behavior to the mate that night was
extremely gracious, and much to
Boggs surprise she paced the deck
with the second in command for
nearly an hour while the CAPTAIN
glared wrathfully at them from his
station on the bridge. The highly
gratified Mr.. Brennan was not uncon
scious of the interest he had awak
ened in the breast of his fair compan,
ion. and he improved the shining hour
by dwelling pathetically on the hard
fate of seamen condemned to stand
the abuse of tyrannical captain.
