Owen Kettle that, whatever cir- cumstances might betide, he was al~ var neat and trim in his personal ap- pearance. Even in most affluent hours he had never been able to afford an ex- pensive tailor; indeed. it is much to be doubted If. during all his life, he ever bought a scrap of raiment anywhere except at a ready-made establishment; but. in spite of this, his clothes were al- gays conspicuously well-fitting, car- - tied the creases in exactly the right place. and seemed to the critical on- looker to be capable of improvement in as one point whatsoever. He looked spruce even in oilskins and high boots. Of course, berng a sailor, he was handy with his needle. 1 have seen him take 3 white drill jacket, torn to "4 L1 - _.:ek The Adventures of g Captain Kettle} “AC .1 "unuv u..-- flbbons in a. rough and tumble with muttnous members of his crew, and fine-draw the rents so wonderfully that u; tunes of the disaster were com~ pletely lost. I believe, too, he was ca. ”Me of taking a roll of material and euttzng it out with his knife upon the deck planks. and fabricating garments a.) mitio; and though I never actually ‘ ' 1' aw him do this with my own eyes, I did hear that the clothes he appeared h a: Valparaiso were so made, and I marveled at their neatness. It was just after his disastrous ad- venture in Cuba: he trod the streets in n state'ot utter pecuniary destitution; his cheeks were sunk and his eyes werehaggard; but the red torpedo; board was as trim as ever; his cap m 'spic and span; the white drill clothes with theirâ€"brass. buttons were the usual miracle of perfection; and even his tiny canvas shoes had not as inch as a smudge upon their pipe-clay. Indeed, in the first instance I‘ think it must have been this spruceness, and nothing else, which made him find favor in the eyes of so fastidious a per- Ion as Clotilde La Touche. But be this as it may, it is a fact that Emma Clotilde just saw the man from her carriage as he walked along the Paseo de Colon. promptly asked his name and, getting no immediate reply. dispatched one of her admirers there end then to make his acquaintance. The envoy was instructed to find out who he was and contrive that Donna Clotilde should meet the little sailor a dinner in the cafe of the Lion d’Or that very evening. The;dinn_er was given in the patio of the cafe where palm fronds filtered the noonbeams and fireflies competed with , s s_-n.- “wavyâ€"u...â€" _.___ the eXectric lights; and at a. moderate computation the cost of the viands would have kept Capt. Kettle supplied with his average rations for 10 months _‘ LL:- _w~b4‘ L..- w. v._°' _ or a year. He Was quite aware of this and appreciated the entertainment none the worse in consequence. Even the ehampagne, highly sweetened to ault the South American palate, came most pleasantly to him. He liked cham- pagne according to its lack of dryness, and this was the sweetestvwine that am ever passed his lips. The conversation during that curious goal ran in phases. 'With the hors 'd'oeuvres came a course of ordinary :dviiities; than for a space there rolled out an autobiographical account of some of Kettle's exploits, skillfully and 'painiessly extracted by Donna Clotil- do" naive questions; and then, with the cow and cigarettes a spasm of volition shook the diners like an ague. - LL 4 _-_ _AAA“AD+, : man it may_ b9 w vvu- -.â€"- wuu â€"- _-7 V 7 Of a. sudden one of the men recollect- eihimself‘ looked to this side and that BY CUTCLIFFE HYNE Wm ny m1. an!» M‘Clav’s Pandora Rang ”3“» St. John. 3.3..

But presently; he made up his mind. and spoke again. ? “I'll accept your offer, miss, to com- mand the navy. and I'll do the work well. You may rely on that.

"I rowed out here to the rendezvous to tell you the Cancelario is at moor- lngs in Tampique bay. and that the senorita would like to see you make your beginning upon her.

For a minute Silva stared in silent wonder. “Then, Captain." said he. “all I can think is, that you must have enormous trust in your crew." Capt.

You see, sir. they were most of them living in Callao before they ship- ped, because there's no extradition there; and so they're rather a toughish | crowd to handle.” “What a horrible time you must have had!" “There has been no kid-glove work for me, sir. since I got to sea with this rose garden; and I must say it would have knocked the poetry right out of most men. But, personally. I can't say it has done that to me. You'd hardly believe it, sir: but once or twice, when the whole lot at the bmtes have been 1 raging against me, I've been very nee.» Ely happy.
