I’ve got some self respect left ylt." That was all, and Bradley wondered. Under such circumstances uccidcuu , AL-A It was odd advice from a mate, but, as Bradley could see. to his astonish- ment. there was no need of telling Cap- tain Titcomb. It was plain enough that the latter knew his crew’accondi- tion and deliberately ignored it. Men stumbled past him, and he looked the other way. Simple orders were bun- gled, and he did not reprove. Only once that evening did his wrath blue out in the old manner. A sailor was ordered by him to do something and. “'They \e got rum with 'em, all right. " he whispered. ‘But we’ll be to Boston tomorrcr, and there ain't no 11.40 startin' a row till daylight. Then some of these smart Alecs ’11 find out w ho 8 who In a hurry or my flat don' t W'ei ,;h w but It used to. Better not lay uothiu' to the skipper," he added. “No use to worry him." But though Swensen and-the Portu- guese cook and one or two more were sober. the rest of the crew were not. Mr. Burke confessed as much to Bred- ley. He liked Bradley, too, and had pro- seuted the latter with a miniature mod- el of a three masted schooner In 1 bottle. beautifully done and such “put- teriug" work that it was a wonder how his big, clumsy fingers could have made it. By 9 o‘clock the signs of drunken- ness were so plain that even the first mate had to admit the fact. Only 1 very few of the men were strictly I0- ber. One of these was the biz Swede. Swensen. Oddly enough, this man had stuck to Captain Titcomb's undone: every voyage since one trip on which the skipper had knocked the light out of him. The novelty of a good sound thrashing was, apparently, just what the giant had needed, and for the man who had "licked” him he entertained tremendous respect and almost love. "Cap’n Ex. he knock the tar out of me.“ said Swensen. “He stand no foolin’. He‘s a man. Hey?" me:- the skipper nor Mr. Burke cared it was none of his business. But he was uneasy nevertheless. “I guess not. If I thought so, I’d km the whole”â€"halt dozen descriptive ad- jectivesâ€"“lot. They can’t play with But in spite of Mr. Burke’s fierce- ness Bradley wasn’t satisfied. He be- lieved that if the first mate had let him alone he would have found the liquor. However, he thought it nel- He gave the fellow a kick that sent him flying, and. turning to Bradley, said in a confidential whisper: “Ain’t it queer how a share drunk’ll stick to a man? I’ve seen ’em come aboard so full that they stayed so for a week afterward.” me, blank, blank ’ “I think they’ve got the liquor down tor’ard here.” “No, sir.” “You’re mighty close to it. Why”â€"-- and here the first mate swore steadily for a full minute. “Do you know what I’d do to a man that brought rum aboard a vessel of mine? I’d use his blankety-blanked hide tor a spare tops’l and feed the rest of his carcass to the dogflsh. Git out of here, and re- member I’m watchin’ you sharp.” The sailor began a further protesta- tion, but Bradley choked it at! and shook him savagely. The first mate. hearing the scuffle, came hurrying‘up. “What‘s the row. Mr. Nickerson ?” he “This man’s drunk, and I want to know Where the rum came from.” Mr. Burke scowled fiercely. “Look here,” he shouted, “is that so? Are you “Well, don’t say it again.

He hated to flak another snub from the mate. and be fully realized the danger or interfer- ing with a superior ofllcer, but Captain Titcomb was not in command, and here was Swenaen's testimony to back his own that the schooner was running mile 1 bradley had been brought up to dis- courage fnmmarlty with men baton the mast. “What are you talking about? he asked sharply.

If Burke was right. he had no buli- nesa to interfere; if he wasn’t right. the Thomas Deane waa shaving the ahoais altogether too close. He went below, found Captain Titcemb aleep- in: quietly and a little later came on deck again to lean on the rail amid- shipn and once more stare at the fac- gy darkness. A big figure loomed close beaide him. It was Swensen. and he obvious- ly wanted to speak. “Well. Swensen.” said Bradley, “what is it?" The Swede leaned forward and. chad- “I couldn’t sleep, so I came on deck a minute. Isn’t she pretty close in? I thought I saw the Skaflt light Just , ‘Turned the Rip an hour or so ago.” Burke’s tone was distinctly unpleas- nnt. “What are you doin' here?" Bradley leaned on, the rail and look- ed over the water toward where the shore should be. As he stood there the haze blew aside for a moment, and he saw not more than two miles away and ahead of the schooner the twinkle of a light. Then it disappeared again. He walked aft. One of the new hands was at the wheel, and there was a dis- tinct smell of rum in the vicinity. “Who gave you that course?" “Mr. Burke, sir.” Burke was standing by the fore- shrouds, looking over the side. He started when Bradley touched his arm. “Excuse me. Mr. Burke.” said the second mate. “Where are we?” But Bradley would not go to bed. He was worried about the captain and even more worried about the schooner. He did not like Mr. Burke, and he was by no means sureâ€"judging by what he had seenâ€"that the mate knew how to handle a crew. About 2 o’clock he de- cided to go on deck. The cook looked hastily at the lad- der. then at the captain. Then, nod- ding emphatically. he whispered: “Ya-as, sir. They most all drunk. I never seen so much drum on schooner â€"not on Cap’n Titcomb's schooner, anyway, and I sail with him for five year." “Thoma, he done it,” said the cook. “the line, she git mess up by the"â€" “He was drunk.” broke In Bradley. “He’s been drunk all the afternoon.

Burke’s teeth clicked to- gether; he seemed to rise from the deck and fell backward at full length almost under the feet of Swensen. Bradley shared the sailor from the wheel and gave the latter a whirl. The schooner shlvered. turned slowly, the booms swept across her deck, and she heeled over on the other tack, with her nose pointing well away from the beach and toward the open sea. The man Thomaâ€"he was half drunk and naturally stupidâ€"obediently plac- ed the handspike in the first mate‘s ward, and it was lucky for him that he did so. Burke’s fist whiued put his ear. and the next moment the two mates were clinched and struggling in the little space between the deck house and the after rail. Bradley did not attempt to strike; his sole idea was to get to the wheel. Therefore he merely warded off the furious blown aimed at his head and struggled silent- ly, but the one sided fight could not last long. Burke gradually backed his opponent to the rail, and then without turning his head he shouted: “Thoma, pm me a handspike. Livo- ly, you"? ed to meet him. show you who’s running this craft!

When the second mate entered the stateroom he found the skipper sitting ontheedgeottheberthwithnhig bandage on his head. but looking very bright and like himself. He seemed oddly embarrassed when Bradley came in. For a moment or two he did not speak. The second mate, who had expected a scorching rebuke and was prepared to meet it. was sur- prised at the madness of the first re- mark. I “Now, then, Brad,” said Captain Tit» comb. “set down.
