ports That a Profit May Confl-
dontly Be Looked For.
Tho business of breeding pearly
mussels artificially has been carried
so far by tho United States fisheries
burcnu that a money profit Is confi
dently promised.
To produce In this way 1,000 baby
mussels costs about 20 cents. When
they nro full grown 13,000 of them
will weigh n ton. Thus tho cost of
producing n ton of pearly mussels of
ninrkot slzo (If nil survived) would
be, as exactly reckoned, $2.08. Assum
ing n loss of r0 per cent, tho cost
would bo MO.
Pearly mussels occasionally yield
valuablo pearls, but commercially It Is
tho shells, uttllzablo for mother-of-pearl,
that uro Importantly to be con
sidered. Tho fisheries bureau has devoted Its
attention wholly to the propagation of
superior varieties of mussels, thp
shells of which linvo at present tinio

Truth Is always a friend to thoso

1011.
WE WERE bound out of Lon
don with n general cargo.
The wind dying out, wo hart
to como to anchor In tho Downs. The
crow had been grumbling uboutfhe
grub; and wero now grumbllnf, yet
more. I wns second olllcer, y.nd to
mo enmo the cook saying: "Jit. Itoyle,
would you mind testing t'.ils?" and
banded me a bit of n ship's biscuit.
"Sugar, molnsses, tea r.nd pork If
they call 'em that they're all tho
same rotten mess, sir."
Tho biscuit wns bnd, nnd though It
wns not my place to do so, I took It
to Cnptnln Coxon, but got nothing
from him except curses nnd the coltl
advice to mind my own affairs. Mr.
Duckling, tho first olllcer, added a few
obsequious remarktr on his own ac
count. Tho result wns thnt the crew,
getting no redress, refused to make
sail on the ship, nnd were put ashore.
Next morning a crimp came down from
London with a fresh crew.
A fair wind sprang up, tho ship was
got under way, but we wero -not clear
of tho channel when tho new crew
were nlso complnlnlng of the grub.
Hot words were passed between them
nnd the cnptaln, so hot that tho cap
tain hnd to tako notice. lie finally
promised to put Into somo hnndy port
In Spnln or elsewhere along tho route,
nnd lay In n fresh supply of ship's
stores.
"What Injustice In tho meanness of
owners and cnptalns!"I thought. Hero
wore good snllors and ordinarily harm
less men who might be. mndc Into crim
inals, and all to the end that our
banking balance might bo kept large
nnd our nntionul power supreme. With
out tho British sailor there would
bo no British empire, nnd what
treatment Is meted out to him I He
submits to hardships and danger,
nnd receives low wages, poor food nnd
mean living quarters; even should he
bo granted a homing for a grievance,
nineteen out of twenty persons np
polnted to Investigate the troublo aro
qualified neither by experience nor
sympathy to render a Just verdict.
Tho Grosvenor, of which 1 wns sec
ond olllcer, was n fnst-salllng, full
rigged little ship of fiOO tons. The cap
tain, under owner's orders to make
whnt time he could to Valparaiso, was
out to drive, her. We wero rushing
.along under n press of canvas when
we ran over a small craft of some kind.
I got a glimpse In the dark of n mast
and a sail bel'oro they vanished un
der us.
No word enmo to bring her to. I
asked Cnptaln Coxon, who wns on
deck, if ho was not going to try to
savo tho possible survivors.
"Snvo bo hanged 1 Why didn't thoy
keep out of the way?"
1 know what I wanted to say; but
It Is In tho power of a ship's cnptnln
to Injure, even to ruin, the future of
an olllcer under him. I held my tongue.
Wo ran Into n threo days' gale. Wo
had a terrible time, but managed to
live through It. As It was moderating
wo sighted a wreck, a most mournful
nnd piteous sight. It was In my
watch, and 1 ordered the ship luffed
to have n better look ut her. What I
Baw was nn arm projecting through
her deck-houso window. I nt once
called tho cnptaln and asked for In
structions.
"Keep her away I" was his order.
I called him n murderer nnd ap
pealed to tho men. Thoy cried to
save tho lives on tho wreck. Tho cnp
taln then allowed mo to take a boat's
crow and see whnt I could do.
After a hard struggle our boat mado

the wfSMBHPMPMliMrimllsh ship,
At no HttTeirT!l j. ..mlnlong the deck
to her house, where I found a young
girl nnd her old father. Another man
was also there, alive, but Insane. See
ing a pannikin of fresh water, this
man grabbed It, draining it nntl
dropped dead.
When we were back aboard the
Grosvenor, I for my pnrt In the res
cue wns put In Irons.
This wreck Incident, ndded to flic
ther needless abuse of tho men ari
tho further failure of the captain
live up to his promise of putting
for better food, Inflamed the crew
yond endurance. They watched tlJ0lr
chance, rushed the poop In the ntfgiit
and killed the cnptaln. They hen
killed Mr. Duckling. They might niuvo
killed me, too, notwithstanding vlinl I
had shown sympathy to theni hut
somebody had to nuvlgntc tlio ship
to within fifty miles of the Florida
const, which was where they Intend
ed to nbandon her nnd row irshorc.
navlng the snfety of tho yjung girl
nnd her father as well as mjf own life
to think of, I ngrecd to acp. as uavl
gntor.
I wns having my supper 1n tho cablr.
under the new regime wiy.cn I felt a
touch on my nrm. I locked up. It
was Miss Robertson, the rescued girl.
Before I could prevent, her she took
my hand and kissed It,; She told mo
then of tho wrecked ship. Her fn
ther, a wealthy Liverpool merchant,
was tho owner of the ship, which had
been bound home Hcom Cape Town.
After the storm, the ofilcers nnd crew,
fearing the ship Twould sink under
them, hnd taken ylo the boats. She
nnd her father hfad spent a terrible
three days on th(V wreck, nnd now her
father, nlrendy a) nervous wreck, wns
shaken nncw by tho frightful threats
of the mutlncers here. She trusted to
mo for the snffety of her father and
herself.
nor trust Inspired mo with a new
energy. To snve them I was now
ready to pTiny any game whatever with
Stevens, who wns the leader of tho
mutineers. Our boatswain, who had
not wlihed to join them, but to save
his life hnd done so, wns on my side.
It vns he who tohl me that Stevens
waj Intending to scuttle the ship bo
fo'ro taking to the boats, and so lcavo
rne and tho passengers to our fate.
We planned to frustrate htm. By
this time we hnd taken Miss Robert
son Into our confidence. One night
our boatswain apparently fell over
board and wns drowned; but he had
not fallen overboard It was n box of
ten-penny palls, which I hnd thrown
over tho side. This wns the night be
fore that day when Stevens went be
low and bored the auger holes which
wero to do for the ship ; but as fast as
Stevens bored a hole, the boatswain,
who hnd been hiding below for thnt
very thing, followed nnd plugged It up.
Thinking ho had scuttled tho ship,
Stevens came on deck nnd led tho crow
to the boats, grinning evilly nt Miss
Robertson nnd myself ns he did so.
They hnd not rowed far from tho ship
when tho boatswain showed himself
on deck. Stevens saw him. "We've
been tricked I' he cried, and headed
back for the ship. Tho wind was ris
ing nt the time, but there wns not
enough way yet on the ship to outrun
tho boats. They tried to board us by
tho main chnlns. As they did, the
boatswain with n handspike nnd I
with n revolver killed or hurled bnck
Into tho sen nil but one of them. That
one wns not so bad as the others, and
wo saved him to help work on the
ship. Throughout tho fight Miss Rob
ertson, who had been gaining strength
every hour, held the wheel so thnt tho
ship should not be caught abnek ana
tho spars como down on us.
Wo had now to work the ship to tho ,
nearest land; but the Increasing wind
mndo It dnngcrous with our meager
crew, to keep sail on her. We worked
llko dogs to reduce sail, but the wind
beenmo too much for us. It came on
us llko a solid wall; tho sens rolled
to our tops. Spars cracked nnd hung
down over our decks. Only nfter the
most exhausting toll did we manage
to clear awny the most dangerous ol
the broken spars. In the height of II
poor Mr. Robertson died. 1 read the
eleventh chapter of St. John over his
body.
In time tho wind abntcd; but the
sea, continuing to tumble nntl ronr,
strained our ship so that she sprang a
leak. There were not enough of us to
keep her pumped out. We pumped
till our urms fell to our sides; but ol
no avail. When the water wns to our
main chains we took to the boats;
and It was then, when we believed we
were doomed to die. thnt Mary Robert
son and I confessed our love for each
other, she tho daughter of n wealthy
man nnd I n poor, penniless snllor.
The sun wns setting; tho sky, far to
tho north nnd south, u golden color;
tho sea wns n purple glare, tho heav
ens n tender green nnd blue; and
while wo were gazing on nil this glory.
tho ship went down.
That night, before tho rough seas
could swallow us, n steamer picked
us up and took U8 home.
