The knowledge that the path of duty lay straight before him' cheered his tortured soul. No man could say he erred In trying to save his children. That was a trust as solemn as any conferred by the Elder Brethren of the Trinity. He placed a hand on Pyne's shoul der, for this youngster had become dear to him. "Had I a son," he sald, "I should wish him to be like you. Let us strive to forget the evils that threaten us. Brooding is useless. If need be, you will take charge of the lower deck. There is starvation allowance for three more days at the worst. But 1 hate the thought of starting the new scale to-morrow." "It may not be necessary." "Candidly, I fear it will.

"Able men, the best of sallors, the niost experienced of engineers have striven for half a century to devise some means of storm communication with ayrock lighhouse placed as this is. They have failed. There is none." "That's good," cried Pyne quite pleasantly. "Where is.your pouch? I feel like a smoke. If I hadn't fired that quesfion at you I should have wasted a lot of time in hard thinking." y Brand had to scheme that night te each the store-room unobserved. he Falcon, steaming valiantly to her observatiop post near the buoy, aided iim considerably, H® permitted the hight watch to gather in the service room ¥, hilst he supplied the men with tobacco, and stationed the officer on the gallery to observe the trawler in tase she showed any signal lights. ' Since the attempt on the lock Con stance gave the key to- her father After each visit. For the rest, the in- mates of the pillar were sunk in the lethargy of unsatisfied hunger. Con stance and Enid, utterly worn out with fatigue, were sound asleep in the kitchen, and the tears coursed down the man's face as he acted the part of a thief in securing the measured nilowance of flour and bacon for one meal. The diet of one hungry meal for eighty-one people gave twenty. seven hungry meals for three. He pught to have taken more, but he set his teeth and refused the ungrateful task. It is oft-times easy for a man to de- cide upon a set: course, but hard to follow it. "A week!" he murmured. "Perhaps ten days! That is all. Pray Heaven 1 may hot go mad before they die!" Pyne, watching the light, knew that Brand had succeeded. The Falcon went, gradually the watch dispersed. "Where is the hoard?" asked Pyne, making believe that they were playing some comedy "Hidden in the kitchen 'jockers. 1 could obtain only. distilled water. You must persuade the girls in the morning that something went wrong with the apparatus." As opportunity offered, Brand trans- ferred the tins to the lockers of the Bervice-room. Pyne, who missed noth- ing shook his head when it became evident that the last consignment was Can noth- "Not much there," "I wil take fierce cry. "You ought to."

It was not until a burst of spray drenched the lantern that Brand knew of a change taking place. The wind Was backing round towards the north. i The barometer fell slightly. It por tended either more wind and dry weather, or less wind accompanied by Fain. Who could tell what would hap- pen? Fair or foul, hurricane or calm, all things seemed to. be the ungovern- able blundering of blind chance. { When te rock was left in peace after the fall of the tide, Pyne prom- dsed to keep the light in "order if Brand would endeavor to sleep until day-break. Rest was essential to him. 'He would assuredly break down ulider the strain if the tension were too long maintained, and a time was coming when he would need all his strength, mental and physical. "Here have 1 been snoozing in odd corners ever since I came aboard," urged the American, "and I have noth- ing to do but starve quietly. It's ri diculous. My funeral is dated; yours isn't. You can't be on deck all the time, you know. Now, just curl up and count sheep jumping over a wall or any old game of the sort until your eyes close of their own accord." Brand yielded. He lay on the hard boards, with a chair cushion for pil low; all the rugs rescued by Con- stance were now needed in the hospi tal. In less than a minute he was sound asleep. "That was a close call," mused Pyne, "In another hour he would Have cracked up. He's a wonder, anyhow." The lighthouse-keeper slept until long after daybreak. Pyne refused to sllow anyone to disturb him, Soon after seven o'clock the watch reported that two vessels were ap- proaching from the Bay. One was the Falcon, and the sailors soon made out that the other was the Trinity tender. from Plymouth. When they were both nearing the buoy, Brand was aroused. It was evident that the brief rest had cleared his brain and restored his self-confidence. Instantly he took up the thread of events, and his first words showed how pleased he was that someone of authority in the light- house service should be in active com- munication with him. Through his glasses he distinguish- ed Stanhope on board the Trinity steamer, standing by the side of the inspecting-offider of the South-Cdast lights. Other officials were there but near Stanhope was a tall elderly man, unknown, and certainly a stran: ger in Penzance. 4 The Falcon was now chartered by press-men, so the civilian on the offi- cial boat was evidently a person of consequence. Indeed, Brand imagined long before Pyne was able to verify the impression, that the newcomer was Mr. Cyrus J. Traill, whom he had falled to notice in the poor light of the previous evening. He knew quite well that the exper fenced chief of the lighthouse service would appreciate fully the disabilities under which he labored, with eighty- one mouths to feed from a stock al- ready far below 'the three months' maximum, The first telegraphed question be- trayed the prevalent anxiety. "Hope all is well?" { } What was he to say? Was it not best to speak boldly and let the men know the truth, not alone as to their present desperate plight but revealing the measures he had devised for the protection of the light? He could not make up his mind to launch out into a full explanation that instant. 80 he signalled: "Everyone alive, but many cases of grave collapse." Stanhope was again the signaler-- evidently he had arranged matters with the Admiral at Portsmouth--so Brand expected the prompt reply: "How are Constanee and Enid?" "Quite well and cheerful." The tall man near Stanhope bent closer. "Are Mrs, right?" Brand assumed that the lady was in no worse condition than others. Con- stance, telling him the state of the sick during a hasty visit, had not men- tioned her name. So he sent the needed assurance, Vansittart and Pyne all safely stored away. +and went on forlornly: "Suppose no effort can be made to open communication?" To his great surprise the answer came: "We are 'constructing a raft. When the tide falls this afternoon we will try what can be done." Ab, how glad he was that he had not obeyed his earlier impulse, and horrified the anxious rescuers by a prophecy of lingering death for many, with the prelude, perchance, of mur- derous excesses committed by men on the verge of madness. If that story had to be told he would not flinch, but it was a grateful thing that the hour of its telling might at least be defer- red. A long message followed, a string of loving words from relatives ashore to those known to be imprisoned on the rock. During the merely perfunctory reading off of the signals his active mind was canvassing the probabilities of success or failure for the venture of the afternoon. It was high-water about three o'clock, and, in his judg- ment, with the wind in its present quarter, about northwest by west, the cross seas which would sweep the reef and engulf the lighthouse at half-tide would render it wildly impossible for any #aft ever built by man's hands to live in the immediate vicinity of the rock. However, -the issue lay with others now. He knew that they would do all that brave men would dare. He was tempted to make known the inspiring '|news to all hands, but refrained, be- cause he feared ultimate failure. Be- neath his feet was a human volcano. Stirred too deeply, it might become active and dangerous. So the apathetic multitude in his charge, hungrily awaiting a scanty morsel of food which only provoked content with the long statement writ ten eut by the purser and read by him at thé door of each room. Pyne took to Mrs. Vansittart the news of his uncle's presence on the steamer. "If you would like to see him," he sald, "I have no doubt Mr. Brand will let you stand on the gallery for a little while." She declined, excusing' herself on the ground of weakness. "In this high wind," she sald, "it will be very cold out there, and any further expqsure would make me very nate. true enough," he Ba Agsed: though he wondefed why | sel, what it failed to gratify, must rest' Traill. Had she forgotten the urgency of her words over night? He Jad car ried her instructions quite faithfully to Brand and the latter smiled at the fantasy. A "Time enough to think of such things when we are assured of the Jady's departure," he said, and they left it at that. . Thinking to interest her, Pyne told her of the crowd on the Falcon. "Mostly reporters, Brand thinks," he said. "What a story they will build up in the New York papers. It will be more fun than a box of monkeys to get hold of this week's news and read all the flapdoodie they are printing" But Mrs. Vansittart was not to be roused from her melancholy. She dreaded the least physical suffering. Privation was' a new thing in her life; To-day she was inert, timid, a woman who cowered away from the door and was obviously anxious that he should leave her to the quiet misery of the packed bedroom. As the day passed, a wearisome Iteration of all that had gome before, 2 new feature in the relations of the crowded community made itself dis- 1greeably apparent. Men drew apart rom each other, singly, or In small groups. An inconsolable gloom set- led on the women. By some means, 'he knowledge spread that they might til starve to death in the heart of Wis cold dungeon. = They began to loathe it, to upbraid its steadfastnes: with spoken curses or unrestraine tears. The sanctuary of one day was becoming the tomb of the next. Nc longer was there competition to look at land or sea from the open windows Everywhere was settling down a pal of blank, horrible silence and suspi clon. Even Constance yielded fo the com mon terror once when the men of the watch escorted the bearer of a tray load of provisions to the occupants oi the coal-cellar. "Enid," she whispered, "did you see the light in their eves? What is it: Does hunger look that way?" "It must be so, vet it is almost unbe Hevable. They are far removed from real starvation." "One would think so. jut it is so hard to realize things beforehand. And they have nothing to do. They are brooding all the time. We are slave of our imagination. Many a sick per son is allowed to eat far less than these: men have been given, and the deprivation is not felt at all." "What will become. of stance, if we are detained many days?" "Dear one, do not ask me, not think of such things)" "But dad is thinking of then. 1 watched his face when I took hima scrap of food just now, and--' "Hush, dear Let us hope." There was a clatter of feef down the iron stairs. The men of the watch were hustling to unbar the iron door A solidly built, circular raft had been lowered from the Trinity tender. An assistant-keeper, wearing a cork jacket, with a rope about his waist was clinging to a stumpy Mast in the centre. Two stout guide-ropes manipulated from the deck of th ne and the flat, unweildy mass of timber was slowly drifting nearer the lighthouse with the tide The door of the column opened to wards the east, so the wind, with its pelting sheets of spray, was almost i the opposite quarter, and the stout Con- for us, here We must pray--and granite shaft itself afforded some de | gree of protection for the The scheme sig steamer was a OST « None but a lunatic would endeavor fo approach the rock itself, but there was a chance that the raft might be made to drift near enough to the door permit a grapnel to be thrown across the rope held by the gallant volunteer on the raft.

The assistant-keeper, kept afloat by his jacket, was hauled, half drowned, back through the choking froth, whilst_the wave which overwhelmed the raft curled up a spiteful tongue and almost succeéded in dragging out several of the men stationed in the doorway. { With a clang the fron shutter was rushed into its place, and when the sailor wab rescued the Trinity boat steamed away to try and secure the raft. So joyous hope gave way once more to dark foreboding, and the only com- fort was the faint one to be extracted from the parting signal: "Will try again next- tide."
