CHAPTER XI--Continued. if: LeVere shouted an order, and a SQd~ #en flare was . lighted araldshlpe.the circle of flame illuminating a part of the deck, and spreading out over the |vi!d expanse of water. Scarcely had • minute elapsed before It came sweeping into the radius of light--at first a dim, spectral shadow, scarcely to be recognized; then, almost as suddenly, ..revealed in all Its details--a boat of ilze, flying toward us under a lug sail, keeling well over, and topping the sea dwells like a bird on wing. LeVert tailed for men to stand by, the fellows "fashing past me to their stations, but. In the fascination of the moment, I fniled to move. I could do nothing but jstare out across the intervening waiter, with eyes fastened on that swiftly K,' approaching boat. I must see, I must fe; -*^know the message It brought; what Ifc * 'ftory It held of the tragedy. Manuel held the tiller, with Estada seated be- Vj side him, Ieaofcig forward, and ges- » liculating with one band, as he direct- -'j, rd the course. I had never seen these two, yet I knew them beyond a doubt. |;i Meudez and Anderson (at least -1 sup- It- •' . jposed these to be the two) were poised «t the sail halyards, ready to let the straining sheet down at a run, while ~ I'ochose crouched low" in the bow, his black hand uplifted, gripping a coil of ! ropi. Their faces were all turned forward, lighted by the flare from our deck, and I felt a shudder of fear run ever me--no expression on any countenance spoke of defeat; even the ugly features of the negro beamed with delight. But was that all? Was that all? Surely not. Forward of the single mast was stowed the chest, while in ihe open space between the helmsman and the two sailors were stretched two motionless bodies. LeVere, gripping a stay-rope, and leaning well out, hailed In Spanish. "Ahoy, the boat! You can make It?" "Ay!" came back Estada's voice. "Stand by to fend us off. Call all bands, and break anchor as soon as we are aboard." •> "Very well, at*.:' Where la Captain Sanchez?" Hstada pointed downward In-swift, expressive gesture. "Here at my feet--badly hurt, but will recover. Send two men down to help when we make fast. Now, Corhoae-- let go of your rope; watch out above !* 1 stood, gripping hard at the rail, nnd staring down at the scene below, as the men In the boat made fast. felt paralyzed, and helpless, unable to Estada had already swung himself up into tfie chains, wtille Anderson and Mendez were liftinfe 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 Intensify the pallor of her face, "Hustle her along " lively, boys," shouted back Estada coarsely. "If 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 queen's reception? Move lively, senorlta," in mock sarcasm. Her gaze settled on him, where he bung far out, grasping .a backstay, watching the movements below, and her slender form straightened as by the acquisition of new strength, k "If these creatures will take their hands off me," she said, using their tongue without a tremor In the clear voice. "I can easily go up alone. What Is It you are so afraid of--a 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 gallantry. "Ycur pardon, senorlta," he said In a tone of mockery. "If you have come to your senses at last. It is well. Leave her alone, men. Now, my beauty, I am taking you at your own word--a step, and then the protection of my hand. We welcome you, as a guest aboard." A moment and she had attained the deck. Estada chose to continue playing the fool. "Thanks, senorlta--thanks," he began' softly, and again bowing before her, cap in hand. "We greet yon with due honor aboard the Namur--" "Enough of that, you coward, you murderer," she broke In coldly. "Do not touch nor speak to me." She turned her back on him, thtks coming face to face with LeVere, who stood enjoying the scene, a wide grin on his dark face, revealing a row of white teeth under a jet-black mustache. "You, sir--you are an offlcerT* "I have charge dF the deck." "Then where am I to go?" The mulatto, surprised by the sudden question, glanced Inquiringly toward Estada, who had already completely lost his sense of humor. "Go!" the latter growled. "Why send the wench below. I'll see to her later, and teach her who' Is the master here. Off with her now, but be back butt of a pistol. and I went down sprawling onto the deck. For a moment 1 seemed, In spite of the viciousaess of the blow, to retain a spark ol consciousness, for I knew he kicked me savagely with his* heavy sea bootai I felt the pain, and even heard th< words, and curses, accompanying **cf brutal "stroke. "You drunken dog I Too whelp of » sea wolf I You English curl Take that--damn you! And that! You'll not forget me for awhile. That's 11 --squirm. I like to see It When yov wake up again, you'll remember Pedro Estada. How did that feel, you grunt* lng 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 I sank limply back^ bloody and unconscious. CHAPTER XII. . / -- A Friend In the FbreeistTS." I slowly opened my eyes to find myself lying in an upper bunk of the forecastle. Memory soon returned, stimulated no doubt by the aching of my Dody where Estada had so brutally kicked me with his heavy boot The heavy rolling of the bark clearly evidenced that we were already at pea, and bucking against a high wind. It was a dark, dismal, smelly Interior, amply large enough, but ill ventilated, and Inexpressibly dirty. I 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, although every muscle and tendon appeared to be strained and lacerated. Clinching my teeth to keep back a groan, I succeeded in sitting upright my head touching the upper deck, as I undertook to survey my surroundings. About half the bunks seemed to be occupied, the figures of the sleeping men barely discernible. As I sat there, staring about at this scene there was a stir within the upper berth on my own level, and an uplifted face appeared suddenly In the1* yellow flare of light It was manifestly an English face at first glance, rosy of cheek, with chestnut beard. A pair of humorous, gray eyes surveyed me silently, and then, apparently satisfied by the scrutiny, the owner sat up in the bunk, revealing powerful shoulders, and a round, bull neck. "Ahoy, mate," be said pleasantly, endeavoring to speak low, the effort resembling the growl of a bear. "How do you feel--pretty sore?" * "Ache from head to foot," I answered, Immediately feeling his friendliness. "But no harm done." "I saw part of It The damn black brute kicked savagely enough, but at that you're lucky; It's the Spanish style to use a knife. I've seen that cock slash a man Into ribbons for nothing at all--just to show he was bad. Haines tells me your name is Gates, and that you are English." "That's right; I shipped first out «f Bristol." "So did I, mate--twenty years age though, and I never went back since. My name Is Tom Watklns. Let's Bhake; there is quite a sprinkling of us Britishers aboard, and we ought to hang together." He put out a big, hairy fist, and I gripped it heartily, decidedly liking the man as his eyes frankly met mine. He appeared honest and square, a fine type of the English seaman. "Tom Watklns, you said. May I ask if you were out on the bow-sprit along with Haines last night?" "Just afore the longboat come in? Yes, we were there." "Well, I was down below, hanging to the cable, and overheard you two talking together. Somehow, Watklns, yop do not seem to me to fit In exactly with this gang of pirates; you dont look to be that sort. How long have you been with them?"

Hook on the boat, Manuel, and let her drag; we must get out of here in a hurry. All ready, aloft?" "Ay, ay, sir." , "Then sheet home; how is It farthere; every prospect of security defended on my joining the crew. Yet only one thought gripped me--Sanchez was not dead! And that other body? That of Dorothy Fairfax, without doubt yet certainly not lifeless. If •heir prisoner was the girl--and who vise could it be?--she remained alive, helplessly hound to prevent either struggle, or outcry, and destined to a fate far worse than death.

Murdered Civic Leaders and Sacked Homes Before y Quitting Rigau 15,000 ILL FROM STARVATION Captain Forman Makes an Official Report on Conditions to the Amarl? can Relief Administration^** No Bread for Weeks. Mew York.--Before the bolshevlsts abandoned Riga they murdered most of . the civic leaders, played machine guns on the persons In one prison and sacked the homes of the wealthy, according to an official report received here by the American relief, administration. This report, made by Capt. Howell Forman, head of the administration's Baltic mission, and forwarded by Herbert Hoover, director general of the organisation, asserted that Inhabitants of Itiga, heartened by the nrrlval of American supplies, had turned on their oppressors and now were hunting down bolshevlsts and executing many daily. The report warned that "a large radical element Is left In the population, and failure of the authorities to provide food until the city can get on Its feet again might lead them, with the assistance of the bolshevlsts still in hiding, to attempt another uprising." Even with the arrival of American supplies food conditions were pictured as distressing. "'Roof rabbits"--bolnhevlk* for house cats--are bringing almost prohibitive prices, as they are virtually the only form of meat available. * 15,000 Persons 111. Captain Forman reported that 187,- 000 persons---nearly 15,000 of whom are seriously ill from typhus," effects of starvation and other causes--are receiving a meal a day from 50 American kitchens, while American bread Is being distributed from 90 depots. With an eptdemic of dysentery feared in the approaching warm season, American medical experts are studying the situation to decide what foods are most urgently needed. •'Before the bolshevlsts abandoned the city they opened the doors of one prison and drove the prisoners Into the yard, wffere machine guns played upon them," said Captain Forman's report. "The bodies of seven clergymen and a number of women were found when troops entered the city. •'Under the bolshevik reign occupants of handsome residences were moved into slums and hordes of ruffians invaded richly furnished apartments. Houses of the wealthy were ransacked and furniture, clothing and Jewelry shipped into the Interior. - "To be well dressed In Riga today Is dangerous. A grim local jest says 'if a man Is well dressed he Is a bolshevik; if in rags he is harmless.' "The bolsheviks divided the population Into three classes for distribution of food. To receive this daily ration applications had to be made for cards, but as applicants were often thrown Into prison Instead of Vecelving cards, many were frightened Into staying away and starving.- - " "BEST MEDICINE - FOR WOMEN"; What Lydia E. * Vegetable Compound Dkl j t For Ohio Woman. ; v ' "Feeble men and women stood in line for hours to receive their rations, and often there was no bread for weeks. When there was any extra food, such as meat, fats or. vegetables, bolshevik commissaries were the only ones to benefit. No food was to be had in open markets. "The bolshevik ration being insufficient the Inhabitants either starved, or if they had property exchanged Jewelry or clothing for bits of food smuggled Into the city by peasants from the country. Exorbitant prices were demanded. Bright-hued bolshevik currency, printed in vast quantitleSf .was thrown about In the streets, being praeUcally valueless. "Curious iTOwds still gather on the water front at Libau watching white flour unloaded from American shlpB of the American relief administration. Women and children in warehouses pinch flour from the floor and eat It raw from their finger tips. Stevedores scrape lumps of wet flour from ship decks and secrete it in bootlegs.

SCRAP BIO WARSHIPS Great Britain to Dispose of Vessels by Auction. Ma«x of >00 .That Have Outlived U»» 'fulness Hold High • Plaa»{.'IJl~ Nival Hlitoiy. '• London.--Nearly 200 warships of the British navy, most of which have outlived their usefulness, are to be sold to the highest bidder as soon as they can be cleared of their guns, etc. Among the vessels to be disposed of are several which have a high place In? naval history and around which hovers an Intense sentimental Interest. A somewhat similar Step was taken by the admiralty In 1904, when a large number of obsolete vessels were disposed of. At that time a great hue and cry was raised, as many persons feared that the strength of the navy would be seriously Impaired. But, as a matter of fact, the sale of the ships resulted In making the navy stronger than ever and the coming sale Is expected to have a similar effect. The removal of obsolete vessels In 1904 had a two-fold purpose, and In both respects was Justified by the war. It set free the personnel needed to start the nucleus crew system, and placed out of commission ships which did not give an adequate return in fighting efficiency for the cost of their upkeep. Widespread Interest will be aroused by the revelation of the names of ships to be removed from service. Sentimental Interest In his majesty's ships of war Is strong, amounting almost to reverence, evoked by such an ancient monument as Nelson's Victory. Among the ships now to be disposed of are many which have been brought prominently before the public eye. Several have flown the flags of distinguished officers, and not a few have made records In connection with the war. More than 100 destroyers, comprising the "A" to "F" classes, are now classed as noneffective, and 97 of them, including 21 for immediate disposal, appeared in the list of, April 9. There will soon, therefore, be no destroyers in the navy launched before 1909. All the toi"pedo boats, except the 36 turbine-driven boats of the coastal type built In 1906-09, are being cleared off, and 46 are In the list Perhaps the most interesting unit of this group Is torpedo boat No. 079, which in the naval • maneuvers was commanded by King George," than a lieutenant in the navy.

Competition for passenger trade among steamboat companies on the Hudson river in the early days of steam navigation went so far sometimes that it defeated Its own ends and was somewhat amusing In the retrospect. Such was the case with the Armenia, one of the first boats built which was fast enough to make most of the trip from New Tork to Albany by daylight. This was for the purpose of attracting passengers who wished to view the beautiful river scenery, but for fear that scenery alone would pall on the passengers, the own ers also Installed a steam calliope. The calliope was simply a series of steam whistles pitched In various keys of sufficient number to play simple tunes. The Armenia was considered something remarkable when she first appeared, as Indeed she was. The demand on her boilers for steam to blow the calliope whistles was so great, however, that the expense of furnishing the passengers with steam tunes as well as speedy transportation was more than the owners could afford. The story is told of a CatsklU back woodsman, who, while visiting a river town for the first time, saw, the Armenia plying along before dawn, spouting sparks and smoke and with all her discordant whistles blowing On his return home he told a wonder ful tale of seeing the devil going up the river in a sawmill with all the denizens of hell on board shrieking In awful torment. 4-ii- Jispute Between Italy and Austria Over Art Collections. Italians Particularly Anxious Recover Former Austrian Emperor's "Florentine Gem." Vienna.--A new turn has been given to the dispute between Italy and Austria over art collections by the statement that former Emperor Charles has carried off to Switzerland the Imperial jewels, the whole of which a«*e regarded in Austria as being his private property, but claims for which have been filed by Italy, particularly the Florentine diamond of 133 1-3 carats. The Italian commissioner, Professor D'Ancona, has stated that this diamond formed part of the collection left to the city of Florence under the will of Anna Maria Medici, but that It was carried off by the house of Austria In 1748 when Duque Leopold became emperor of Austria. He said the Austrian government had been notified of Italian claims to this Jewel months ago, and If it permitted Emperor Charles to carry It away It would be necessary to obtatn possession of It again. It Is unknown here whether the emperor has disposed of the diamond while In Switzerland in order to pay his living expenses. Professor D'Ancona has carefully traced the history of this remarkable stone which, legend relates, was lost on the battlefield of Granson by Charles the Bold, duke of Burgundy, six centuries ago. A It was picked up and believed to be a piece of glass and sold for a small sum. It found Its way to Switzerland, where It was sold for 11,000 ducats to the duke of Milan, and brought to Rome In 1001 by Ferdinand Medici. It has been on exhibition of late years In the Hofburg museum. • Professor D'Ancona pointed out to the Associated Press correspondent that the Austrlans cannot claim that in surrendering this stone they would be injuring Vienna's art collection since they were willing to part with It to the fbrmer emperor who Is now a private citizen and has left the coun- .
