SEA SAVIORS

mable materials as cotton, resin, pine tar,
and turpentine, caught fire. Answering her
signals of distress, the Seminole, then sta
toned off the coast of North Carolina,
steamed to the rescue. After tremendous
work, amid constant danger, the officers and
crew of the cutter got the fire under control.
Before they did so-for the fire ran into the
second day-gas accumulated in the hold
of the Berkshire and caused an explosion
which blew off the hatch covers. After that
there was real panic. But the men from
the Seminole finally quoted everybody and
transferred the twenty-one passengers to the
cutter. The Berkshire and her cargo we're
valued at five hundred thousand dollars.
One of the horrors of navigation, particu-
larly coastwise navigation, is derelicts. Lost
souls of the sea, rudderless, helpless, their
only function is one of menace and danger to
vessels that are manned. Whenever one of
these floating engines of destruction is sight
ed by any commander, the news of it goes
by wireless to the towers of Al hngton or to
some other station. After that it is matter
of day or few hours before cutter is at
work towing the derelct into port, or, if she
is of no value or her rescue is impossible,
sinking her to the bottom, so as to re-
move any possibility of her hurting other
ships
Not long ago the Captain of cutter in
Alaska waters was told that a young native
boy had a blood clot on his brain. The Cap
tain took aboard the boy. his father and

mother and little sister, and carried them to
hospital.
Two cutters have lately been cruising the
tumbling waters of the North Atlantic tax
ing observations of the amount of ice there,
its thickness and the direction of its move
ments, with the view of getting up mass
of information about the dangers of icebergs
to Atlantic traffic. No sailor believes that
they can prevent a disaster such as that
which sank the Titanic; but they can warn
ships by wireless, and gather information
that will greatly lessen the probability of
such catastrophes.
The charity to the sick child and the study
of the Arctic threat are not very similar ac-
tions; but they show over what wide range
the work of the revenue cutter men extends.
And all of it-dangling on lifelines, dis
covering derelicts, dragging drowning women
from icy waters, extinguishing fires at sea
is done by less than two thousand men at a
cost of less than two and one-half millions
of dollars. How little the service costs can
be realized distinctly when it is remembered
that each dreadnought the navy builds now
is at an expense of ten million dollars.
Congress and the regulations do not pro-
vide many medals for these mighty mari
ners; but, if there is Valhala for valiant
sailors, their standing in eternity will be at
the top. They are the warriors of the waves
and each one of them could tell you stories
that would excite the envy Of Rudyard Kip
ling.

not be denied, and he faltered, Lets see
you said the other day you would reimburse
us for all
Reimburse nothin'l ought to make you
reimburse me for the money I've put into
your worthless paper; but 1 won't. I'll just
keep that to see that you make your word
good about Steele; SOS l can kick your
playhouses over any time you don't play
fair with him. You see, Wardheim, don't
trust you in any way. l know you to be a
crook, liar, and a hypocrite. And from
this time on you'll know there's little of
your paper held by a man who has that
opinion of you. You'll think about it quite
a lot. You'll feel as if you were expectin' to
be arrested any time, just like you made
young Steele feel. It'll get your goat in
time-you see if it don't!'
He got to his feet, slipped his pistol into
his pocket, put his stiff, uncomfortable hat
on his head, and went to the door. "At just
noon tomorrow 1 shall call on the prosecutin'
attorney to ask him if he's wantin' one John
Steele for anything at all. If he says no,
that there's nothin' against that young man,
you and me are quits-for this time. If he
says yes, l open the ball against you, and
every company you're mixed with, before
the courts close, just as sure as there's a God
in HeavenN
The door opened and shut, and long,
free-sounding steps echoed in diminuendo
through the corridors as he passed out.
At the same time the next evening two
- trains departed from the Union Station,
one carrying Jack Steele, rehabilited, toward
Washington, the other carrying seemingly
contented old frontiersman westward; but
before these two parted one Of two of those
nearby overheard a last remark and Won
dered thereat.
at don't matter what the old mans get
tin back there" said the frontiersman, cts
your duty and you owe it to him to bring
him out West with you, and it's your job,
as long as he lives, to make him forget all
about it. III have somethin' open for you
by the time you get back. Cut out this wet
eyed stuff and tryin' to thank me. 1t makes
me sick! To hell with it,"
Apache Tom smiled to himself in the
train, after he had reduced himself to shirt
sleeves, thrown perfectly good derby hat
out of the window, and dug crumpled old
felt from handbag; but it was not such a
wonderfully gleeful smile as he gave some
six months later when, seated in the office
of a new frontier commercial company he
had financed, he opened a freshly received
newspaper and read therein that ]. Anthony
Wardheim, mushroom fnancier, whose scan
da1ous failure had stirred certain Eastern
city, had been arrested just as he was trying
to escape aboard an Atlantic liner with a
large amount of stolen funds carefully con-
cealed in double bottomed trunk.
@Your old friend played the game double
to the last, he remarked dryly as he tossed
the paper to his manager, and then grinned
sidewise at quiet old gentleman who ap-
peared to have nothing to do beyond ad-
miringly watching his only son.

stockholder in the bank, in this bondin' COM

NOV and then through this, possibly the
- longest speech he had ever made in his
life, he was interrupted by the financier, who
ran gamut of emotions, to end in mere
groveling 1impness He tried to speak; but
nothing save queer noises came from him.
