CHAPTER Ix-continued

+Why7" demanded Captain Scraggs, instantly on the defensive.
 Mot that I'm hoIdin' any grudge agfn you, ScTaggsy," said Mir. Gibney affably, "but I wouldn't a-hud you no more now than I would when we was runnin' in the green-pea trade It's because you ain't got no imagination and the Maggie ain't big enough for any purpose Havin' the Maggie sort of puts crimp in my plans"
 Rot" snapped Captain Scraggs ~r7e had the Maggie ovefhauled and shipped new wheel, and she's a R1ighty smart little boat, I'll tell you I'll land them arms tn Descanso bay ell right
 "I Know you wflk- said Mr. Gibney sadly. That's jus; what hurts. You see. Scraggsy, I never intended 'em for Descanso hay in the first place There's nice healthy little revolution fomentin' down in the United States Of Colombia, with Adelbert P. Gfbney pfayin' both ends to the middle. And there's a dog-hole down on the Gold coast where i intended to land this cargo. but now that Scab Johnny's gone to work and sent me a bay scow. 4nstead of a sea-goin' steamer I'm in tf1e nine-hole instead O dog-hole. I can never get as far as the Gold coast with the Maggie. She can't carry coal enough to last her."
 "But I thought these guns and things was for the Mexicans," qua -versd Captain Scraggs. 'Scab Johnny and Lopez told me they was"
 Mr. Gibney groaned and hid his face in his hands. "Scraggsy," he said sad ay, 'ft's a cinch you ain't used the past four years to stimulate that fmagi- nation of yours. Of course they was purchased for the Mexicans, but what was to prevent me from 1ettin' the Mexicans pay for them, help out on the charter of the boat, and then have me divert the cargo to the United States of Colombia, where I can sell .em at a clear profit, the cost bein' aothin' to speak of? Now you got to come butti:I' In with the Maggie and what happens2 Why, I got to be hon. sst, of course. F. got to make good on nay biun aud what's in it for me?

gle rested an Instant in the trough the sea-and a deckhand jerked the lanyard. Instantly MT. Gfbney clapped the long glass to his eye.
 Good direction-ovef,'' he mur-
 nured- ''Ill lay on her waterline next time" He jerked open the breech, elected the cartridge case, and rammed another cartridge home. This shot struck the water directly under the schooner's bow and threw water over her forecastle head. MT. Gibney smiled, spat overheard, and wfnked confidently at Captain Scraggs. ssLike spearin' fish in a bath tub," he de- clared. He bent over the fuse setter "Corrector three zero," he intoned, -four eight hundred.' He thrust a 'cartridge in the fuse setter, twisted it, slammed it in the gun, and fired again. "Over." he growled.
 Something whined over the Maggie mile beyond her.
 'Dubs,' jeered MT. Gibney, and sighted again. This time his shrapnel burst neatly on the schooner. Almost simultaneously shell from the schooner dropped into the sacked coal on the forecastle head of the Maggie and enveloped her in black pail of smoke and coal dust. Captain ScraggS screamed.
 ''Tit for tat," the philosophical 5fb- ney reminded him. "We can't expect to get away with everything. Scraggsy. old kiddo." The words were scarcely out of his mouth before the Maggie's mainmast and about ten feet of her ancient railing were trailing along side. MT. .1ibney whist1ed softly

through his teeth and successfully my heart to ruin that crafts canvas he declared, and let her have 1t once more.
 My Maggie's tail is shot away Captain Scraggs walled, 'an' I only rebuilt it a week ago." Three more shots from the long gun missed them, but the fourth carried away the cabin, leaving the wreck of the pilot house, with the helmSman unscathed, stick ing up like a sore thumb.
 Turn her around and head straight for them." the gallant Gibney roared. She's smaller target comin' bows on. We're broadside to her now.'
 "Gib, will you ever sink that Greaser?'' Captain Scraggs sobbed hys- terically.
 Don't want to sink her." the super cargo retorted. ''Shes a nice little schooner. I'd rather capture her. May be we can use her in our business, Scraggsy," and he continued to show CT the enemy with high bursting shrap- ne1. When the two vessels were less than two miles apart the one-pounders came into action. It was pretty shoot ing and the wicked little shells ripped
 
 through roll of butter. MT. Gibney slid flat son the deck beside his gun and Captain Scraggs sprawled beside him.
 "A feller," MT Gibney announced, "has got to take a beatin' while lookin' for an openin' to put over~the knock out blow.< If the old Maggie holds to-. gether till we're within a cable length O that schooner an we ain't all killed by that time. I bet Ell make them skunlzs sing soft an low"
 "How?p Captain Scraggs chattered.
 "With muzzle bursts," MT. Gibney replied. '.I'I set my fuse at zero, an at point-blank range I'll just rake everything off that schooner's decks. Guess I'll get half a dozen cartridges set an ready for the big scene. Up with you, Admiral Scraggs. an' hold the fuse setter steady."&
 I'm agin war;" Scraggs quavered. 'tGfb, it's sure h-fl."
 .sRatsi- It's invigoratfn', Scraggsy. There ain't nothin' wrong with war, Scraggsy, unless you happen to get killed. Then it's like cholera. You can cure every case except the first one"
 They had come inside the minimum. range of the Mexican's long gun now. so that only the one-pounders con tinued to peck at the Maggie. Eyt- dently the Mexican was as eager to get to close quarters as MT. Gibney, for he held steadily on his course.
 "Well, it's time to put over the big stuff" MT. Gibney remarked presently. Heres hopin' they don't pot me with rifle fire while I'm extendin' my com pliments."

 Too late" said the philosophical Gibner. Were in Mexican waters
 now, and she can cut us off from the
 bay. The only thing we can do is to
 run for it and try to lose her after dark. Tell the engineer to crowd her to the limit There ain't much wind to speak of, so I guess we can manage to hold our own for a while. Never theleSS, I've got hunch that we'll be overhauled. Of course, you ain't got no papers to show, Scraggs, and they'll search the cargo, and cOntiscate us. and shoot the whole bloomin' crowd of us. I bet a dollar to a doughnut that fellow Lopez sold us out, after the fashion of the country. can't help thinkin' that that gunboat was there just a-waitin' for us to show up."
 For several minutes MT. Gibney. con- tinued to study the gunboat until there could no. longer be any doubt that she intended to overhaul them. He made out that she had long gun ford with a battery of two one-p0und- CTS on top of her house and something on her port quarter that looked like Maxim rapid-fire gun. About twenty men, dressed in white cloth, could be seen on. her. decks.
 Presently int rupted by Captain Scraggs pulling at his sleeve.
 You was gunner once, wasn't you, Gib?'' said Captain Scraggs in a. trembling voice.
 ''You bet I was" replied MT. Gibney.' My shootin' won the trophy three times in succession when I was on the old Kearsarge. If I had one good gun and a half-decent crew, I'd knock that gunboat silly before she knew what had hit her"
 "Gib, I've got an eidee," said Captain Scraggs.
 ''Out with it," said MT. Gibney cheer fully.
 There was four little cannon low cred into the hold the last thing before we put on the main hatch, and the am nunition to load 'em with is slowed in the after hold and very easy to get at"
 MT. Gibney turned a beaming face to : ne skipper, reached out his arms, and folded Captain .Scraggs in an embrace hat would have done credit to a grizzly bear. There were genuine tears ,f admiration in his eyes and in his voice when he could master his emo tions sufficiently to speak.

gie, feed me to the sharks, for I won't be worthy of the blood that's in me. Pipe all hands and lift off that main hatch. Reeve block and tackle through that cargo gaff and stand by to heave out the guns.
 But Captain Scraggs had repented of his rash suggestion almost the mo- ment he made it. Only the dire neces- Sity of desperate measures to save the Maggie had prompted him to put the idea into MT. Gibney's head, and when he saw tse avidity With which tue lat ter set tc work clearing for actfon his terror knew no bounds.

Golden Pennies

Sir Robert Hornes forecast of a return of the gold sovereign to com mon circulation may recall that the first regular gold piece struck in England was-a pennyI This became part of the currency in 1257, and weighed about 45 grains, being the equivalent of 20 of the contemporary silver pennies. Its prototype was the benant. a gold piece belonging to Byzantium, which had been current for centuries, but the English penny was a far better executed coin than it's original. It appeared but once in our coinage and only two or three examples have survived. No one in England will be sorry for the disap- pearance of the paper currency of war times.-Montreai Family Herald.

against three boys, one or whom is now
In the reformatory. These boys were
charged with conspiracy to steal an au-
tOmobile. The evidence against the other
two was insufficient. Three cases were

dence and in those cases no further evil
dence was Obtainable One case was
reversed on an appeal to the Supreme
Court because of the insufficient evidence

OBREGON'S JOB
COVETED; NEW
REVOLT BEGUN
YilIareal, Former Minister of.
Agriculture, Leads in At
tempt to Overthrow.
ENLIsTS GONZALES AID

SAN ANTONIO, Texas. Jan. "a
new revolt to overthrow A1varo Obregon
as president Of Mexico has been started
by Antonio villareal. former minister Of
agriculture in the Obregon cabinet, &C
scording to official information received
here today.
VillareaI. now in the mountains near
Monterey, Mexico, has enlisted the aid
of Gen Pablo Gonzales at Laredo and
the Carranzista followers here, according
TO the report and processes to have lO,-
900 men ready for the field. The Obregon
troops, during the last three days, are
reported to have made more than &oo
arrests in connection with the new rev.
olutionary plot. United States agents
are expecting V1llareal to cross the IN
ternationaI boundary to further his rev
dictionary activities.
According to information received by
United States operatives in Mexico. the
Carranzista supporters and the follow
ers of Ger. Pablo Gonzales are to join
in a united movement into Mexico from
border points with troops secured by
Billereal. The exact time for the move
ment to begin has not been ascertained.
II is understood, however, that 1t is
planned for the latter part OF January
or the early part of February.
Candido Aguilar, son-in-law of the late
President Carranza, who is now playing
the role of a gentleman farmer near here,
denies any knowledge Of such move
rnent, tut other Carranzstas close to
Aguilar claim that they have been ap'
preached and are in q receptive mood.
II has been known for some time that
General Gonzales at Laredo has been
quietly working with his followers along
the border accumulating arms and am
munition, preparatory to making another
attempt to overthrow Obregon.
The viIlareal revolt is held by United
States agents to be significant, in view
of the fact that the huge oil tax pay
