MYSTERY OF THE OCEAN
STAR. By w. Clark Russell. y

TT was on August q, 1877. that the
steamship Guide plunged through
i miles of the thick fog and out Into
sunlit stretch CT sea. In the con-
ter Of this open space the Guides cap
tain saw a bark with all sails set. A
second glance showed the puzzled cap
tain that something was very wrong
with the bark. Not a figure was to be
seen on her decks. She was darling
from side to side at the caprice Of every
breeze gust. Somewhere aboard her q
bell was solemnly tolling.
The Guides captain sent his first
mate and a boat crew across the inter-
gate.
The mate and two or three men
boarded the bark-her name was the
Ocean Star-and shouted. No reply
came to their hail. The decks were va
cant.
The bell. whose tolIlng they had
heard. swung to and fro to the roll OF
the vessel. The mate muffled its grue-
somely noisy clapper. Then he made a
tour OF inspection.
In a coop. were several live chickens.
In the galley a coal FIRE was burning.
And in a kettle over the Are chicken
was boiling. The fire had evidently
been lighted during the past half hour.
The Deserted Vessel.
Next the mate went below, his awe
stricken men following him with visible
reluctance. In the forecastle everything
was In order The cabin was tidy. But
nowhere, on board was there a sign Of
human life
The mate and the men looked at one
another In superstitious terror. This
sort of thing was beyond any human
calculation. There had been no storm.

The Ocean Stars log was found. It
ten days. Yet there was every reason
to think the Ocean Star had been de-
serted for less than an hour.
The mate returned to the Guide with
his amazing report. The steamships
captain was less interested in the mys-
terry than in the chance OF earning sal
wage money by getting the bark safely
to port. So he put a working crew
aboard the Ocean Star.
Next day the newly named bark sailed
into view or rowboat. In II were four
seamen. nearly dead from thirst. They
were rescued and carried aboard the
Ocean Star. There. when they could
speak. they told their story.
They were survivors of the Ocean
Star, and their report cleared up the
mystery.
A Hoodoo Voyage.
From the outset the voyage had been
one long series OF calamlties. Men had
fallen overheard. Men had been killed
by dropping from the shrouds. Men had
died from a fever epidemic At length
only six had remained alive. One Of
these had fallen into the sea. Four
more had jumped into a boat and
rowed back 'for him. leaving the fifth
to hold the bark in stays while they
were gone.
The fog had surrounded the four.
They had lost their way and had
fioated, helpless, ever since. The Nth
man had evidently tumbled overheard
or had committed suicide by drowning
just before the boat crew from the
Guide had arrived upon the scene.

Shadows to tired eyes, music to pain,
