"Smartly done-hard down with
your helm therei That's it; now let
her play off slowly"
He caught sight of me. All the saw
age brutality of his nature had been
brought to the surface by Dorothys
singing words, and he sought now
some fit opportunity to give it vent.
Before l could move, he had gripped
me by the collar, and swung me about,
so that the light streaming out from
the cabin fell directly on my face.
"What the devil are you doing, loaf
ing aft here? I've seen you hanging
about for ten minutes, never lifting 3
hand. Who, are you anyhow"
Joe Gates, sir"
"Gates-another damned English
mani How did you ever get aboard
here?"
1t was the returning LeVere who
made explanation before I could reply
Manuel brought him on board last
night. Picked him up drunk ashore

have any idea who 1 am, Gates?"
"No. sir-only that you are one of
the officers"
81 AM the first officer and in COM
mand at present. Pedro Estada is my
name. Now, you damned English
whelp, remember that!"
Before I even suspected what was
coming, his unexpected action as swift
as the leap of poised tiger, he struck
me fairly between the eyes with the
butt of a pistol, and l went down
spraWling onto the deck. For a mo-
ment I seemed, in spite of the vicious
ness of the blow, to retain a spark of
consciousness, for / knew he kicked
me savagely with his heavy sea boots !;
l felt the pain, and even heard the
words, and curses, accompanying each
brutal stroke.
"You drunken dog! You whelp of 2
sea wolf! You English cur! Take
that-damn you! And that! You'll
not forget me for awhile. That's it
-squirm. I like to see it. When you
wake up again, you'll remember Pedro
Estada. How did that feel, you grunt-
ing pig? Here, LeVere, Manuel, throw
this sot into the forecastle. Curse you
here is one more to jog your memory"
The heavy, iron-shOd boot landed
full in my face, and every sensation
left me as l sank Imply back, bloody
and unconscious.

The fellows sent down from the
main chains to the boat brought the
injured captain up first. This required
the services of three men, his body
hanging limp between them, his up
turned face showing CHASTITY in the
flaming of the torch thrust out over
the rail. To every appearance it was
apparently a corpse they handled, ex-
cept for their tenderness, and single
groan to which the white lips gave ut
terance, when one of the bearers
slipped, wrenching the wounded body
with sharp pang of pain. Once safe
ly on deck, the three bore him across
to the after cabin and disappeared
down the steps.
Estada had already swung himself
up into the chains, while Anderson
and Mendez were lifting the girl to
her feet, and rather roughly urging
her forward. Her eyes reflected all
the unutterable horror which for the
moment dominated her mind, while
her looSened hair, disarranged by
struggle, only served to intensity the
pallOr Of her face.
'.Hustle her along lively, boys
shouted back Estdda coarsely. eff she
won't move, give her a shove. Then
tie her up again, and take the turn of
a rope round her. What do you think
this is-a queens reception? Move
lively, senorita," in mock sarcasm.
Her gaze settled on him, where he
hung far out, grasping a backstay,
watching the movements below, and
her slender form Strengthened as by
the acquisition of new strength.
eff these creatures will take their
hands off me-" she said, using their
tongue without a tremor in the clear
voice. 81 can easily go up alone. What
is it you are so afraid ola woman"
The expression of Estada's face
promised an Outburst of profanity, but,
instead of giving it utterance, he lifted
his cap in a sudden pretense at gal
lantry.
'Your pardon, senorita," he said in
a tone of mockery. eff you have come
to your senses at last, it is well. Leave

Yanks Like French Souvenirs.

Yankee soldiers are keeping the
French shops busy these days. Sou
venirs of France are all the go. Among
these souvenirs are brooches bearing
the arms of different cities. The head
of the famous Lion Of Belfort, the stat
ue of Bartholdi, the sculptor who de
signed the Goddess of Liberty, is an
other favorite. The Lorraine cross
has also proved very popular with the
Yanks. This symbol has two sets of
cross arms instead of one. 1t appeals
particularly to the Americans because
of the part which the Yanks played
in Lorraine during the war. The Red
Cross dog and the lucky white ele-
plant charm are other French SOU
venirs which the Americans are pro-
curing in large numbers to take back
to the states.-The Spiker, France.

CHAPTER XII.
A Friend in the Forecastle.

I slowly opened my eyes to find N.Y.
self lying in an upper bunk of the fore
castle. Memory soon returned, stimu-
lated no doubt by the aching of my
body where Estada had so brutally
kicked me with his heavy boot. The
heavy rolling of the bark clearly evil
denced that we were already at sea,
and bucking against high wind. 1t
was a dark, dismal, smelly interior,
amply large enough, but i'll ventilated,
and inexpressibly dirty. l must have
been lying unconscious for several
hours. I rested back, feeling of the
numerous bruises on my body, and
touching gingerly the dried blood
caked on my face. No very serious
damage seemed to have been done, al
though every muscle and tendon ap-
peared to be strained and Iacerated.
Clinching my teeth to keep back a
groan, | succeeded in sitting upright,
my head touching the upper deck, as
[ undertook to survey my surround
ings. About half the hunks seemed to
be occupied, the figures of the sleeping
men barely discernible.
AS I sat there, staring about at this
scene there wa, stir within the up
per berth on my own level, and an ups
lifted face appeared suddenly in the
yellow flare of light. It was mani
testify an English face at first glance,
rosy of cheek, with chestnut beard. A
pair of humorous, gray eyes surveyed
me silently, and then, apparently salts
fed by TIE scrutiny, the owner sat up
in the bunk, revealing powerful Shout
ders, and round, bull neck.
"Ahoy, mate" he said pleasantly,
endeavoring to speak low, the effort
resembling the growl of bear. "HoW
