The Last
Day
By PHILIP E. STEVENSON
8 by western Newspaper Union.)

WHEN Yeng-see' the new galley
w cook, came aboard the Shansi
Maru at San Francisco, his oriental in
telllgence told him that he had Joined
an exceptionally erratic crowd of men.
His eastern calm had become used to
the antics common to white men, but,
carried to lengths reached by Nansen
the bOs'n, Clark the radio man, and
Araqui one Of the seamen, the amuse-
ment involved was no longer intelligi-
BILE to Yeng-See.
One day, Yeng-See squatted against
the deckhouse beside the galley door.
Andy, the Scotch quartermaster, was
beside him, talking, as he loved to do,
about China and the eastern view Of
life.
Their casual, lazy talk-the best
kind of talk in the world-was broken
into by Clark and Araqui with news.
LOCKER, Yank"-they called him
Yank because he dlsdained to use the
pidgln English, and spoke almost like
an Amerlcan-"that poor ham-an'-egg-
err Clio wants to make bet with
yer"
"YesT Yeng-See knew they were
at one Of their eccentric jests again.
'He bets you'll walk out this here

the morning."

the side. What day, Clark?
Tomorrow Here, Wen write It
all down"
Andy smiled. While the others were
gone, busy with the document, he took
Yeng-See by the arm.
How would you like four quid,
Yank? Dollars are good money these
days. Blimeyw
Yeng thought that, on the whole, he
would like them
There was some whispered argument
between them before the others, their
forces greatly augmented. returned TO
read their agreement, as follows:
"Gillo here now, and Yeng, the cook,
agree to bet. Clio bets Yeng walks
ont his galley door between one and
three In the morning. Yeng bets he
don't stakes 500 gold"
