ENDING OF SEA FEUD
By J. C. PLUM M R.

Let him go. To hades with his bloomin' knife. Let the dago loose" and Tom Bradd struggled to free him. self from the grasp of two brawny sailors who held him. MT. Buck, the lean, sinewy mate. had his arms in- terlaced about Nicolas waist. utterly unmindful of the cruel looking stiletto shaking in the powerful Italian hand.
 Captain Newton advanced to the main hatch. his long, patriarchal beard falling to his waistband.
 Stop it, gall darn ye. stop it." he thundered I'm short handed now, anG l won't have any man killing on this here hooker. Batten down your ieelin's. you two fellers, till you get to Rio Grande, and then you can chop each other into bits and devil take what's left, 1ut there's to be no chop pin on the Apollo"
 The two sailors released Bradd, who recommended the work he had stopped to fight Nicola, and the Italian, find ing himself free from the mates hold. walked dignitiedly forward and went below. The crisis had been passed. temporarily at least.
 What begun the feud between the men no one knew. Y existed when they shipped in New York and they had spat hate at each other during the voyage, but this was the first time an actual collision had been threat ened
 It's only put off," remarked old Ned. oracularly: "bloodll fly yet"
 There were several days of bright sunshine calm sea and cloudless sky, and on one of these mornings the mate ordered Nicola to some duty on the fore-topgallant yard. The Italian looped a line about his neck and grip. ping marline spike in his teeth climbed the weather rigging. Just as ne swung himself over the top he lost his hold and fell like a plummet into the sea.
 Man overheard" yelled O'Nelll who was at the wheel, and he flung a life buoy over the rail.
 The skipper was on deck in one jump.
 "Heave her to-" he shouted.
 Braces" came sharp and curt from the mate, and the men hurried to obey, casting glances aft.
 "He's a goner,"' exclaimed Mr. Buck
 "No, there he is," said sharp-eyed ONeill, pointing over the lee guar ter, and there, sure enough, was 3 black speck the head of Nicola He was swimming. but slowly and laborl ously.
 The brig had been brought to and the boat ready, when cry came from tue poop.
 Hi, hi! Shark, see him!"
 Abeam was the triangular fin of 8 shark cutting the water as it made g straight course for Nicola.
 Its all up," muttered the mate; nothing can save him now"
 There was a splash. and to our as tonishment Bradd had leaped over board and was swimming fiercely. He lay a course which must bring hin between the shark and Nicola.
 Having laid right angled cours, Bradd gained on the shark, which wal swimming in a straight line for the Italian and was a cables length ahead of the fish when he reached { line with the slowly swimming Nicola and then he seemed seized with con vulsions. He splashed the water witl his hands and legs, reminding one O the actions of :. duck which ha' reached a pond after a long. dry lanf

 Lobbyists Are Subpoenaed.
 The lobby hunt took on a significant aspect when it become known that several men mentioned as lobbyists in testimony so far, and who have been sitting in the hearing room, were there because of subpoenas from the committee. Among these were Henry T. OXnard, a beet sugar manufactur- CT with interests in many states; Frank C. Lowry of New York who has been leading the free sugar agi- tation; Buford Lynch, whose activi- ties have centered about patent medi cines, and Frank German and Allan Irvine, manufacturers agents
 Chairman Oyerman said 50 subpoe nas had been issued by the commit tee. Overman said the committee will call not only the men already sub poenaed but manufacturers who have been most active in conducting cam paisns against proposed tariff sched- ules.
