"The Ell Cid, Valparaiso to Buenos

"And the others? Do they live?"

valiantly to put all these horrors

I could no longer keep back the one
question which trembled on my lips.
But you. Doris, you! Do you still
mean what you said yonder? Are
we only saved to lose each other?
Have you heard? Do you know any
thing OF him?"
The red blood flooded the pale
cheeks the long lashes yelling the
gray eyes.

YES" | answered, my voice trem-

fully. But are you sure her husband
| Is dead?"
Regarding that fact there is no
possible doubt, Mr.. Stephens. We
were in port at Valparaiso barely
three hours. but long enough to hear a
brief account of the affair. 1t seems

your party. 1t was his own haunting
conscience that put the idea of the
| ghosts Kelly tells about into his head.
You will tell her the story?"
"Yes," 1 said, not venturing to look
| into his face, realizing that he under
stood.
| l sat there, it seemed for hours, en-
! deavoring to muster up courage for
my task as I watched, far in the dis
tance, the darkening outlines of Cape
Flores. At last l went slowly down
the companionway into the cabin.
| Slowly and falteringly at first, but
| gaining control of my voice as l pro-
ceeded, I told her all, marking the
pallor of her cheek, the horror in her
eyes. For another age I sat silent,
gazing across the deserted cabin out
through an open port, afraid to dis
turb the motionless woman beside me.
Finally my fingers, almost uncon-
sciously, crept across the rail of the
settee until they touched her own.
Doris" I whispered, pleadingly,
confused by her silence, SIS it possible
that you already knew this?"
She did not raise her bowed head,
but I felt the soft pressure of her
hand.
Yes, Jack, II knew" she ac-
knowledged, doubtfully. Sanchez
told me in the boat when he felt
himself to be dying. 1t was then l

But l couldn't tell you'll could not

But now we both know"
She lifted her eyes suddenly, eyes
misty with tears, and I realized the
truth forever.

"When?"
There was long pause, in which
heard her rapid breathing.
"They-they tell me / can, get pas

Her hand tightened on mine, and
she dropped to her knees, her face
buried in the coverlet.

control my voice sufficiently for re-

l continued to gaze at her my heart
throbbed with love which became
sacrifice.
Doris" l managed to whisper at
last, whatever you believe to be
right will think right also. Only let
me be alone for a little while--just a
little while, until can fight this out
and conquer"
She lifted her head, her hand on my
hair, her gray eyes looking frankly
into mine.
II thank you, jack" she smiled
tremblingly. The next moment was
alone.
While was sitting up and partially
dressed that evening, Marsden, the
chief mate, came in and told me brief
ly the story of our rescue.
I'VE were considerably to the west
of our course" he said, gravely, "be-
cause we had met headwinds and a
heavy sea all the way down the coast.
It was just at daybreak when we
sighted your boat in longitude 7S de-
grees west and latitude SO degrees,
IL minutes south. I've been knocking
about at sea for 30 years, Mr. Ste
phens, but l never saw more pitiful
sight than that longboat presented
when we got up alongside. The lib

and for a minute or two / didn't think
there was living soul aboard. There
! was a man forward lashed down with
ropes, dead; man and woman were
wrapped up in blankets amidships,

closed. Close up to the stern another
woman was lying with her arms about

alton that could lead her to the en-
brace she had ever refused me! Mars.

"A big fellow held to the tiller as
IL he was froze there, but he'd dropped
down until his head hung dangling as
the boat rocked. There wasn't one OF
them took any notice Of us until we
were fairly alongside. Then this big
sailor lifted his head and stared dull
eyed like he thought he saw vision,
and when spoke to him the woman
that had her arms about you stag
gered to her knees and began to cry.
Good Lord, sir, but 1t made my heart
ache. and never saw SO much misery
in any human face before. Well, we
fell to, and got you all on the Ell Cid,
hoisted the whole outfit over the rail,
and, barring the dead man, reckon

 In 1S44 Mir. Dobson. who later be came famous member of tue Royal academy, WAS q young man earning modest income as master of the gov ernment School of Design at Birming- ham, One evening in December in- stead of writing his usual letter of Christmas good wishes to friend it occurred to him to substitute a pie torial greeting, and, taking q piece of card about twice as large as q modern postcard he began to draw on it. In the center of tue three panels into which he divided his design he sketch ed q family group raising glasses to- the health of distant friends aill.d d seaSouAbIe, environment Of iloi.y and mistIetoe. While on each side of this festal scene he drew q picture of q deed of charity.

Salve showed good form, bat re-

runs scored against him. Dobson
threw the ball away in the second
inning, allowing two OF the locals TO
cross the pan. and another run cam
across when Shaw made a mess Of

the Colts would have won easily.
Levy was the particular star for the
Shoemskers. his hitting and fielding

one-hand catch of Dobson's long drive
IN the fourth saved the game. as the
drive would have been good for the

In the second game Vance held the
Champs completely at his mercy and
let them down with three hits. He
did not pass q man and struck out
