Heaven alone .knows what our track would have looked like on the chart, but. it’s my belief that we were getting to the westward at the rate of about twenty miles a day for the best part of a week, I lost all lcount of time; and, though it seems {hard to be.ieve, I was aCLually begin- ‘ning to feel quite important as the commander of a big vessel on the high iseas. We fed well and we slept well lâ€"at least Elsie and I did; as for You lSing, I don’t know whether he ever Eslept at all. He did all the. cooking, 'kept everything clean and tidy, and was ever ready when called hpon. Be- sides all this, he had won his way in- 'to the affections of Elsie; and I .aimost felt a pang of jealousy when ll heard her clear laugh at some of {the quaint antics he cut in order {to amuse her. Had it not been for : the one haunting dread of being over- lhauled by a junk, I believe we 'should have been quite happy. For the terror of the past tragedy hlad faded from our minds. and the sea was kind and gentle, the soft breeze blew sweetly, though it varied a great deal,- making our task of trim-- ming the yards in order to keep the vessel somewhere near her courseâ€"due westâ€"an uncommonly heavy one. ; Then it fell a flat calm. Now, I‘ had, even at that early age, all a sail- E or’s horror of a calm. and this one troubled me more than any I had yet experienced. The silence was almost. unbearable. I could not rest day or nightâ€"it lasted three daysâ€"for more than an hour or so at a time; and when Ifell asleep from sheer wearj- ness I always woke with my heart thumping furiously and in an icy sweat of fear. The inaction got up, on my nerves, so that I began to hear 5 trange noises, and to imagine that the (lead crew were among us, grieving be. ‘ cause we were yet alive. and schem-. in; to secure our company. This v ’ â€" L â€" ' ' 'J ‘â€"’"'°" o.erboard; but seeing what a dread he. had of them, I stowed them all in I the late skipper’s berth under his bed- place, tn two large drawers, which I llocked and nung the key round my neck. Then, for the first time, I be- gan to think about wolking the ship. Uniortunatey I had not the faintest idea 01' which wts the best direction to steer in, for ! did not know, with- in at least a th. usand miles, our posi- tion. .1 imagined, of course, that we were somewhere south of Formosa, s and between that great island and the IPnilippines; but that was vague in the extreme. And I was in hourly terror or being sighted by a wander- ing Junk 01‘ whate.er character, feel- ing certain of a barbarous death at the hands of any of You Sings coun- trymen who might happen to find such a pride as the Blitzen. How I longed tor the sight of a smokewreath {esuooning the hot-ison! 'l‘hat vision WOUId have nearly set me crazy with joy. hat I suppose we were far out of the tract; of steamers, for we saw no sign of one. i Aided most manfully and sensibly' gby Xou Sing. 1 clewed up the royals and toggzlllunl. sails with a View of making the vessel easier to handle, and with a great deal of labor man- aged to hunt up the course, mainsail and foresatl, as well, taking the gear to the. capstan where it was too heavy for our united efforts, until those great squares of canvas hung snug as they COllld. be without being actu- ally iurled. Then, atter long cogita-g tion, I. deciJed to make for the coast' of China, which I knew‘ "must be west or us, and trust to a merciful God to bring us in sight of either some» ClViiiACLl port or ’snip before-any of those cairn, merciless pagans came across us. Now we each tool: a regu-f I-.. ._2 _ A 1 comd not bring myself to the poinn of heaving all those pxjetty things turn to perish had nearly arrived, when, going down into their store- room under the cabin for some rice, he tountl himself in a sort of trap from which he was unable ‘to escape. Tnere: he would certainly have per- ished of starvation, instead of sharing the unknown fate of the remnant of his tyrants, but for our intervention. And in various quaint ways he gave me to understand that he considered his life to belong to this ship and her crew, of whom the child asleep and my small self were now the sole re- presentattves. l on such sealarers as they dared attack lwilhout fear of reprisals, and who lwere all deliberately slain after they lhad been plundered and their vessels lscuttled. Then the wretches .had lturnetl their bloody hands against i each other, and by so domg sometyhat Iaton for their innumerable crimes j by rit ding the world of two-thirds of ‘ the gang. The survivors then loaded u,» all the most valuable of the stored t,.untlet° ino the most seaworthy junk they possessed, and, din-sting her of (1:1 suspicious appearance, sailed for some tort where they intended to dis- pose of their loot. Again Nemesis overtook them; they had befou;ed the seas too long. They stealthily mur- dered one another as Opportunity served, until there were hardly enough 01' them left to handle the junk. You aing was a slave who had none their cooking. ha\ing been spared for that purpose alone out of the en- tire crew of a large barque they had surprised one night. boubtless his l CH AFTER III. This discovery marked a new depar- ture in our relations toward each _0ther. Hitherto I had looked upon 1 You Sing as I might have done upon 1a big fait hiul dog, but never dreamed of credi ing him with any intelligent ini iative. His behaviour so far had cetainly justiiieal me in this opinion; but now he became completely trans- formed. In the most energetic panto- mime, and “'ith strangely severe stlu ggl‘es to enunciate a few words of my language, he endeavoured to ex- plain to me the origin of all these treasures. I did not tind it hard to understand the general drift of his attempt to enlighten me because I had already susyecled something of what I was now gathering from him. Roughly, it was to the effect that the cargo ue had re 'ieved the junk of was the aetumu ated hard of a nest of tila e~_ who had Ion}! been playing up_- While we had been thus busy the ris- ing pail of clouds had imperceptibly. grown until exactly half of the con-| cave above was perfectly blackâ€"black l as the adit of a coal-mine. The other ‘ half astern was of an ugly green tint, 3 as unlike the deep violet of the night | sky in those latitudes as could well be imagined. Its chief peculiarity, f though, was its light. That segment 9 of the. sky was full of glare, dif- fused light that was even reflected on : to the vessel, and yet could not be; traced to any definite source. The; contrast between this uncanny radi-E ance and the crepe-like darkness of. the other half of the sky was tremend- ous,.and of itself enough to inspire fear in the breast of any creature liv. ing. Presently, as we watched in strain- ed silence, came the. beginning of what swart roof of cloud, or whatever that gloom was built’ of, and in a hot {puff of Wind the destroying genie of the tropics lifted the opening strains of his 53.

My hope was that in Qhe first burst of the tempest the big sails that- were loose would blow away, and that the vessel would then heave her- self to naturally, athough I knew well enough. that if caught by the lee she would probably capsize or drive under stern foremost.’ “-‘ th: els of the: earth had broken through the sea and was thus disfiguring the beautiful face of the heavens. Tearing myself away from the dis- abling fascination of the sight, I re- turned to the poop, noticing with much satisfaction that my trembling had almost ceased. 1 found You Ding and Elsie sitting- on a hen-coop watch- ing with solemn faces the rising gloom ahead in perfect silence, all their pleasant play at an end. Meeting iou Sing’s eye, 1. read therein a refleCLion of my own concern, and in an instant. we understood each other. Doubtless, it being his native countr ' he understood the ominous signs far better than 1, although even the child could see and. feel that something ter- rible was impending; and as 1â€" “eat up to her to coax her below he murmured in my ear two words of pure Chinese, which, because they have passed into the English language, I understood at lonce, “Ty fosng!” They ran: 7â€" .._-.. c-vvvu-a “““‘V‘J9 the painfu‘ly changed luminary sank slowly into LhaL black mounuin of gxoom and disappeared.

But I was deperately uneasy, fearing that l was going to be tery ill. I left the deck and descended into the cabin, seeing, to my astonishment, several rats prowl- ing uneasxly about. They took scarce- ly any notic: of me, and I was too upset to obey the momentary impulse to chase them. I sank down on a set- tee and tried to collect myself, but I was too uneasy to sit Still, and soon wandered out on. the main-deck again. A3_,_l I was lolling against the useless wheel watching,- with eyes that ob- served naught, the fantastic efforts of You Sing to amuse Elsie, when an appalling feeling of dread' suddenly came over me. - lt was as if I was go- ing to be violently sea-sick, and af- fected my limbs to such an extent that I slid down from the wheel to the deck. This disabling sensation was happily only momentary in its effeCL, so that state of mind grew upon me to such an extent that at last 'I dared not leave You Sing, clinging to him as the one hope I had of ever- again seeing the ‘land of the living.

A word or two from ‘him, in an unintelligible jargon, would set her dancing with delight, and it was only during his unavoidable absence from her for a short time that. she ever seemed to feel the mis- ery of our position. .â€" _ A - .
