ON the gangway above where pair
of long brown legs had been but now
were not. On the heels of that fruit
less shot he sent another, this time
with nc murderous intent, but to
warn the captain on the bridge. Here
at last was an issue forced, animus
proven, assassination indisputably at
tempted.
He sprang for the coInpanionway,
was half way up it in a thought, his
heart hot within him, mouth dry with
thirst for that lascar's blood. Not
third time should the man escape his
judgment at the hands of O'Rourke,
he swOre.
A stentorian roar Saluted him as he
gained the deck-a below choked and
ending in sickeniag gurgle.
O'Rourke in a flash swung on his
heel. simultaneously he came face to
face with Quick. He could have csseu
aloud IN pity.
The captain swayed before him,
massively built figure clothed all in
white, huge arms trembling towards
his head, revolver dropping from a
nerveless hand, his chin fallen for
ward on his chest, a stupid, weary
smile on his face, and a dark and hid
eous smear spreading swiftly over the
bosom of his shirt.
A cry Of horror, despair and rage
stuck in the wanderers throat. Quick,
who had hailed his appearance on the
Rance at Alden as harbinger Of good
luck had been foully murdered. His
dominant emotion of the moment. an
intense and pitiful solicitude for the
dying man. threw him of his guard.

O'Rourke glanced at the helmsman,

left him in possession of the bridge

Danny lowered his voice to hoarse
whisper. "Kape yer eye on thot black

of Bloodthirstlness.

A man who was caught in the act
of skinning 6 neighbours sheep, COW
cred his embarrassment by declaring
that no sheep could bite him and live.
The logic of this is equaled by that
of the Yankee soldier who once had a
narrow escape from an enraged gan
der. The men of certain Maine regi-
ment, which was in the enemy's coun-
try in 1862. considered the order mo
foraging" an additional and uncalled-
for hardship One afternoon about
dusk, a soldier was seen beating a
rapid retreat from the rear of a farm
house near by, closely pursued by a
gander with wings outspread, whose
feet seemed scarcely to TOUGH the
ground, and from whose beak issued
succession of angry screams. The
fugitive was not treasured by the
cries of the gander's owner: Hold
on, man, hold oni He won't hurt
youl" Call off your ganderl Call
him Off" shouted the fleeing soldier.
Neither man nor gander stopped until
inside the camp lines, when the sol.
dier's friends relieved him of his
fierce pursuer with the aid Of the butt
of musket did that gander think
he could chase me like that and live!"
the soldier exclaimed, as he surveyed
the outstretched bird; but he said
nothing of the baited hook, with cod
line attached, which might have
thrown light on the unfortunate gan
der's strange actions.

OF discussion intended to discover the
needed reforms in the use of wireless

tee investigating the Titanic disaster

inquiry.
Tomorrow the officers and crew of
the sunken ship will be released and
will be free to return to their homes

national Mercantile Marine, will be
quizzed searchingly as to his ideas OF
regulations to make repetition of the
disaster impossible

wireless telegraph; f. M. Sammis,
chief engineer of the American Mar
conf company; Wireless Operators
Bride and Gotham; passenger, Hugh
Woolner, of England and Fourth Of
ficer Boxham. Of the Titanic, were the
days witnesses. Virtually all agreed
that better regulation of wireless COM
munication at sea was essential.
1t was made clear early in the hear
ing that the committee already had
made up its mind to advocate legisla-
tion preventing wireless operators on
shipboard from holding back details OF
disasters. Mr.. Marconi and Mr.. Sam
mis- both acknowledged that mistake
had been made in sending messages to
Bride and Gotham, on the Carpathia,
not to give out anything until they
had seen Marconi and Sammis ashore.
Senator Smith held out no promise
as to when the officers of the White
Star line would be released, but it was
the general understanding that they
kokuld be fred as soon as Mr.. Ismay
is examined. This, it was expected,
would be freed as soon as Mr.. Ismay
