when Viking was in the neighborhood
of Copper and Bering Islands.
1t was then that the lookout on the
Lewis saw, far on the horizon, Il
smudge of smoke, and then the lean
hull of the Zabiaka was raised. Now
the Lewis tried running, but her heels
were not fleet in the heavy sea and the
Zabiaka steadily overhauled her, so,
failing to distance the Russian, Nc
Lean ordered about ship" and steered
straight for the patrol. Head on for
the Russian he sent the big Lewis.
Lightly the Zabiaka danced out of the
way, with little puff of smoke belch-
ing out of a starboard rifle. Throwing
over the helm, the skipper again sent
his craft crashing at the patrol, and
that sent his ship swerving away. ap-
parently in flight, with the Zabiaka in
pursuit.
But the Russian had gone scarcely a
dozen of her own lengths before she
turned and helplessly wallowed in the
trough, for a chain cast at her pro-
peller by Vikings crew when the Lewis
rammed at her the second time had
disabled her. So the first blood was
drawn by Viking in his encounter
with the Russians and he put back for
a British Columbia port with all speed.
When next he sailed outside the
three mile limit. few weeks later, he
captained the Carmencita, or so she
was called when she cleared from San
Francisco. But once on the high seas
she became the Acapulco, with q Mexi-

States, at her fore. Still disgruntled
