substance which furnishes the earth
with light and heat. Its average dis
lance from the earth is about 90 900 900
miles, so far away that it would take

These eruptionS, resembling some
what the eruptions OF an active vol

sun in all directions and with great
speed, the velocity being at times as
high as 800 miles a second. And they
shoot out to distances of sometimes
nearly half a million miles. Of course,
under ordinary conditions, these cannot
be seen. but they are distinctly visible

bulwarks.
The seamen's cries of "Yo-ho-ho!"
and Haul an hold" became stifled on
the instant. Only gasps and spluttered
curses came from the submerged, strug-
Cling mass Of humanity. The entire
starboard watch, hauling on the weather
main-braces, were washed across the
main hatch to leeward on the end Of
the rope to which they chung with des-
peration. The ponderous steel yards
aloft, suddenly taking charge, swung to
and fro wildly.
From the break of the poop Capt
Evans voice yelled in frenzy: STEADY
tight those braces, men! Do you want
the masts and spars about your ea5s?"
In response the second mates head
suddenly emerged from the riot OF water
from his eyes with the back Of his hand,
and fIoundering about like a porpoise,
he gasped: Catch turn with the end
of that brace. some onel Quick, catch
turn with 1T"
A big, raw-boned Swede seized the
tail end Of the rope with his two hands
and, fighting his way down to the lee
rail, caught turn with it to Delaying
pin. "All fast to an iron pin," he splut-
tered with sigh of relief.
But the danger was not yet over
The braces were still slack. and every
time the swinging yards brought up
against them they strained and cracked
almost to breaking point.
Inspired by the masters cries Of adj
monition, the men struggled up to wind
ward and hung in punches to the va
rious ropes, on which they pulled with
renewed energy. Fresh cascades of
water streamed over the rail and
through the scupper-holeS. tearing some
of the men from their grasp and wash
ing them round the decks like so many
ninepins.
The stronger held fast and with one
arm locked around shroud or stay con-
tinued to haul with the other. The

responded gamely. The yards moved,
and came square.

"Aloft and loose the topsl and forest.
Keep her on the move, boysl"
Black, oilskinned figures clambered up
the rigging and out on the swaying
foot-ropes q hundred feet above the
deck. A moment later punches Of white
canvas bellied from the yards, thrashed
wildly in the captivity Of their bunt-
lines and clew-lines; then gradually
spread to the wind as the men on deck
hoisted on the halliards and sheeted
them home.

Sardine3 Fight

"The little sardine herring certainly
has to fight for its life. If it weren't
that the sardines raise such big fam
lilies, they'd have passed out of exist
ence years ago." declared Capt. White
as he helped his grandson Ted to an
other big sardine covered with mus
tard.
why, what's so hard about the sar-
dimes life?" asked Ted, who loved to
hear the old fisherman tell about the
different kinds of fishing.
We'll, the sardine happens to be the
favorite food of whales, sharks, por-
poises, dogfsh, cod. pollock, haddock.

other seafowl, too, are very fond of
dipping down into the water and Sc
curing a sardine dinner.
''Many's the time I've been around
sardine fishing. It's quite q business

THE natural hangout of the sardine

of the public affairs Of Importance took
place. 1t is here that the ancient
Cabildo still stands next to its neigh
Dor, the Cathedral of ST. Louis. It was
built in 1795 as Government house
and palace of justice during the Spanish
occupation; within its ancient walls
took place all the important meetings
OF the Government. Here, too, took
place the formal transfer of Louisiana
from Spain to France, and also the
transfer of the same lands from France
to the United States. Lafayette was

The Cabildo is used today chiefly as
