poned the time when the sea should
/ close over her.
But in the book OF fate the Mary
/ Nye was not destined to perish by wa
( ter alone. Among her HETEROGENEOUS
/ Coastwise cargo which had nt been
| unloaded, from the small hold back Of
the main hold, were two sacks of un-
sIaked lime. After a time a trickle
of water found it's way to these, and
they began to smoke.
The first person to be aware OF the
smoke was Gunsdorf It filtered into
the main hold before it found its way
to the deck. GunsdOrf at the moment,
with a kind Of diabolical eagerness.
was trying to calculate the rapidity
with which the water was rising. This
was difficult matter, owing to the
motion Of the vessel.
When he smelled the smoke his
heart almost stopped beating. he was
frightened. Water and dynamite had
10 terror for him. but death BY fire
had always been his nightmare. He
was like a man waking after a great
drunkenness, during which. let US say.
he has committed some crime which

commission had seemed a reasonable

a prey to the most awful terror and
r6mOrse.
In short. the man had recovered
from his mur!erous and suicidal mad
ness. Re was sane-a rational crca-
turc. who realized what he had done.
and that the deed was in vain. and
that he alone would be destroyed

/ dirty little ship, Amidship was a
hold, formerly used as a container for
| Goldfish; it still smelled of them. The
hatchway giving access to this hold
was open, and into it Gunsdorf de-
scended. II seemed TO him, after ex-
ploring the schooner from stern to
stem, to offer the best means of con-
ceaiment. The little cabin aft was
cleaner. It would be the choice Of the
triumyirate for their own quarters.
Gunsdorf was half crazy with IA
tigue. In a far corner of the hold
he found a pile of sacking and flung
himself down on them. But there was
something hard among them that hurt
him. He groped for this, and found
that it was a powerful two-handed
augur, fixed with an inch and a half
bit.
He pushed it to one side and in a
moment was sound asleep. I
Barclay was restless: the cabin was
stuify and verminous; he preferred the
deck and the open air. So II hap
peued that in passing the main hatch,
in a luIl Of the wind, he heard a sound
OF a man snoring lie had left Semmes
and Sturteyant complaining OF the dis
comforts Of the cabin. Captain Nye
was at the wheel, the two men and
tie boy forward.
Here, " thought Barclay. we've got
a stOwaway aboard. Some poor SON
of.a-gun Of a wharf rat, | suppose"
He stroiici aft.
There's someone asleep in the
main hold" he said.
The he'll there is'" ..
You can hear him snoring IL you
listen in the hatchway.'
Wei, let him snoro."
Gradually it dawned upon Barclay

rolled precariously when she had
drifted out OF the lea of the doomed
schooner, and when she hit the rough
water she rolled quietly over and float
ed bottom up.
The shock of the cold water revived
GunsdOrf so that he cid not at once
drown. He succeeded in getting hold
Of the boat and keeping his head out
Of water.
Over the inverted bows Barclay
crawled out of the water and lay
sprawling on the arched. slippery bot,
tom Of the boat. From this advanta.
geous position he looked about eager,
~ TO see whom he could help. OF
that whole party only Barclay and the
boy could swim. Sturtevant and
Semmes, if they ever came to the sur,

that the presence on the schooner o
a man unknown and unyouched FOL
was not pleasant So he descended
into the hold, struck match. and had
look at the sleeper's face.
Then very softly he returned to the
deck. half closed the hatch. and
thrusting his head through the open
ing that remained. ht called loudly:
Wake up, there"
The snOres ceased and wers fol-
lowed by kind Of sleepy groaning
'Gunsdorf" called Barclay in a
sharp, incisiye voice, "can you hear
me-"
4 hear you
What are you doing on this boat?"
No answer.
Well, yCull not be able to do al,y
mischief You seem TO like it down
there. am going to close this hatch
so that you cant open it. You will
not get out until the boat Is back OF
her starting point. The captain is a
safe man. You will not find out from
him where | have been set ashore. So
goodnight to you"
GunsdOrfs s answer was to fire two
wild shots from his automatic. Bar
clay slammed the hatch to and sue
ceeded in fastening it so that it could
not be opened from below.
Then he went once more to the cap
tain and talked to him for some time
in an undertone. After that he walked
Sturteyant and Semmes to tell them
what had happened.
He's been insane for some time"
said Sturtevant. He wouldn't stop
at anything. | hope to God he hasn't
got stick of dynamite with him. He'd
think nothing OF blowing himself to
pieces If we went. too"

He had only an automatic with a few
cartridges in the magazine, and an in

automobile was all in vain, was it?
He'd show 'em-damn EN-!
And his hands, their strength re-
freshed by hatred, insanity and sui
cidal daring, sought and found the
big auger and began to bore a hole
through the bottom OF the schooner.
He would drown, but so would they,

Gunsdorf laughed aloud, and at once
