fired at him point blank. The bullet
went wide, and there was a sound of
shattering glass. Gregory's hands
clenched themselves on Horble's, and
the revolver twisted this way and
that under the double grasp. Horrible
was painting like steam engine; his
lower jaw hung open. and he cried az

face; there was an agonized light in
his eyes, for his forefnger was break

and he moaned and ground his teeth

supreme desperation for the pistol.
Getting it in the very nick Of time,

Horrible sank at the first shot, and
received the second kneeling. Then
he toppled backward, and lay in
twitching heap against the drawers
below the bunk, groaning and cough
ing. Gregory, with averted face,
gave him another shot behind the ear,
and another through the mouth, and
then went out, sick and faint, shut
ting the stateroom door behind him.

tecting the covert reproach in the
others voice.
Horrible was plainly i'll at ease. His
face turned a deeper red. He was
on the edge of blurting out a dis
agreeable remark, and then hesitated,
making an inarticulate sound in his
throat. Like everybody else, he was
afraid Of the labor captain.

"And cooks?" said Gregory.
"And cooks" said Horrible.
II know she can sail a boat against
anybody said Gregory, wincing at
the remark.
Horrible spat in the water and said
nothing. His fat, broad back said
palmer than words: You're an in.
truder! Get out!"
II believe she's aboard this very
minute said Gregory, with a strange
smile.
She's ashore, 1 tell you," said Hor-
BILE, sullenly.
It'll just run below and make sure"
said Gregory.
He slipped down the little compan-
ion way. looked about the empty cabin
and peered into the semi-darkness of
the only stateroom.
"Madge!" he cried. "Madge!"
Horrible had not lied to him. There
was not a soul below But on the
cabin table he saw Madge's sewing
machine and half-made dress of cot
ton print. She had always been fond
of books, and there, in the corner, was
her little bookcase, taken bodily from
her old home in Nonootch. Scattered
about here and there were other things
that brought her memory painfully
back to him; that hurt him with their
familiarity; that caused him to lift
them up and hold them with sort Of
despairing wonder: her guitar, her
worn, lock-fast desk, the old gilt pho.
tograph album he remembered so
we'll. He sat down at the table and
buried his face in his hands. What
a fool he had been! What fool he
had been!
He was reused by the sound of Hor-
ble's footsteps down the ladder. With
his head leaning on his hand, he
looked at the big naked feet feeling
for the steps, then at the uncouth
clothes as they gradually appeared,
then at the fat, weak, frightened face
Of the man himself. He grew sick
at the sight of him. Would Horrible
strike him? Would Horrible have the
grit to order him of the ship? No;
the Internal coward was getting out
the gina bottle or square-face and
two glasses.
"Say when," said Horrible.
When" said Gregory
Horrible tipped the bottle into his
own glass. A second mates grog!
One could see what the fellow drank.

ing both elbows on the table, there's
something you ought to know; I love

Horrible gasped.
"Shes mine!" said Gregory.
Horrible helped himself to more gin,
and then slowly wiped his mouth with
the back of his hand.
You're forgetting she's my wife,"
ne said.
"Iu give you = thousand pounds

Org.
You can't sell white women" said
Horrible. "She amt labor"
"A thousand pounds" repeated
Gregory.
II won't sell my wife to no man."
said Horrible.
The pair looked at each other. Hor.
ble's hand felt for the gin again. His
speech had grown a little thick. He
was angry and flustered, and a dull
resentment was mantling his heavy
face.
I'LL go the schooner" cried Greg.
DRY. "The Northern Light, as she
lies there this minute, not a dollar
owing on her bottom, with s2O0 of

Capt. Cole" said Horrible, "Madge
has told me how near it was a go
between you and her, and how, If you
hadn't cleared out so sudden the way
you did, she would have married you
in spite of old Blanchard. But when
you went away like that you left the
field clear, and you mustn't bear me
no malice for having stepped in and
taken your leavings. What's done's
done, and it's sorry game to come
back too late and insult man who
never did you no harm"
"Oh!" said Gregory.
IF you choose continued Horrible
in his tone of wounded reasonable
ness. you can make a power of mis-
chief between me and Madge. don't
think it comes very we'll from you to
do it; ] don't think anything that
calls himself man would do it;
least Of all a genelman like yourself,
whom we all respect and look up to.
Capt. Cole, if you've lost Madge. you
know you can only blame yourself"
II don't call her lost" said Gregory.
Capt. Cole said Horrible, calmly,

take another drink, and then we'll
say good-by."
I'm not going till 1 see Madge,"
said Gregory.
Horrible began to tremble.
IT'S for Madge to decide" added
Gregory.
Decide WHAT" demanded Horrible
IN husky stutter.
Between you and me, old fellow"
said Gregory.
"And you've the gall to say that on
my ship, at my table, about my wife!"
exclaimed Horrible, punctuating the
sentence with the possessive.
"Yes," said Gregory.

The sun was in the east,
And merry bIitheful company,
Met at a public feast.
Around the room rich banners spread,
And garlands, fresh and gay,

Some called for bitter. some for stout,
And some for rosy wine.

Scarce sixteen summers had he seen,
No specious snare he feared.
