"I left her in port," replied Captain
Bland, "and I'm hero waiting for her."
Popo foil back with a wild look at
Crystal, and Btruck his thigh a slap
that soundqd llko a shot.
"Good mercy I" crltd ho with a dull,
rather palo face. " 'TIs a Bmall world,
Captain Bland. Tho Madro's tho ship
wo aro waiting for,"
Tho beardod skipper looked under
a frown, withhis black slow eyes at
him, gathered his board to a point In
a lelRuroly clutch of Ills fist, and said,
without amlling, "Wo must go into
partnership," at which CryBtal broke
into a moro gcnulno explosion of
laughter than Popo had over heard
fly from his lips.
"Who Is thlo gontloman7" Bald Cap
tain Bland.
"Captain Crystal, my chief officer,"
nnawerod Popo.
"I bollovo wo havo met," said Cap
tain Bland. "Wasn't you onco mas
lor of a Httlo barquo with a cargo for
London from Kingstown, Jnmnica?"
"Tho William Pitt," said Crystal.
"I boarded you off Turk's Island."
Crystal frownod, reflected, and an
swered, "Yds, I recollect. Your visit
Iwns brief, and your usage handsome."
"You had nothing aboard good fqr

"Pray stop below," said Popo, who
Iworo a faco of chagrin. "Grindal, bco

grog to toast us in," and ho went down

and Captain Crystal following.

"Sco hero, Captain Bland," cried
Popo, "thero aro two of us on this Job.

"So!" cried Popo, his faco lighting

and no man can ask for moro. Your
hand on that bargain, friend;" and ho
stretched his arm.
', Captain Bland gravely squeezed
Captain Pope's fingers. "A prosperous
voyage, Captain."
CHAPTER XIII.
The Madre.
Nothing answering to tho descrip
tion of tho Madre hovo in sight. Popo
had not known until ho met Captain
Bland that ships from Cadiz for two
or three years in succession had been
taken by pirates, Ho -consulted with
Crystal, and they agreed it was pos
Blblo that tho commander of tho
Madro, fearing to bo plundered, had
shaped a course for the Horn widely
remote from, that pursued by his
predecessors.
Four days had passed since the
Julia Morton parted company. Popo
and Crystal wero sitting at dinner. A
piece of salt beef steamed upon tho
table; a boiled fowl lay before Crys
tal; on a Httlo brass tray, suspended
Irom tho upper deck, swung three or
four bottles, containing as many dif
ferent sorts of liquor.
Popo, after receiving a leg of fowl
upon his plate, Instead of falling to,
sat eyeing his companion steadfastly.
"Crystal," said he, "I have mado up
my mind to quit this barren, cursedly
hopeless bcciio to-morrow and go for
tho Antilles. It is a horrible disap
pointment, but wo must face it llko
men. Before I take this fresh step
I will call the crew aft and hold a
council with thom."
"They'll oxpect it," said Crystal,
helping himself to a glass of the Earl's
champagne.
Just then tho boatswain called
through tho skylight:
"Three sail, right ahead, aro re
ported from tho t'gallant yard, blr.
Heading for us."
"Right," and tho boatswain's ugly
face vanished.
After swallowing another tumbler

of grog apiece, the- two captains went
on deck.'
It was not until flvo bolls, half-past
two, that tho threo Ball sprang into
sight ahead; two Bhowlng from tho
deck before tho third. It was plain
thoy wero keeping company and sail
od closo together. Popo and Grindal
had been watching tho ships on tho
bow through the telescope intently
for Bomo tlmo in silence, when Grindal
exclaimed:
"Tho Httlo 'un to tho right is a
Bchooner. She's under small canvas
whllo t'othor shows all sho's got to
spread, and tho amldshlp vessel," ho
added aftOr n pause, letting tho glass
Blnk from his oyo and Bpeaklng in a
hollow voice, whllo ho fastened his
wicked bloodshot gaze on tho com
mander's countenance, "is a frigate
aa I should say by tho hlsto of the
tawB'ls, of all fifty guns."
"Quick! tho glass!" shouted Pope.
Ho wrenched It with the violence of
a sudden passion of excitement out of
tho boatswain's hands, looked, and in
a note of thunder bawled:
"It's an English frigate, as you say,
convoying tho Madro, that's half
wrecked aloft, and tho schooner Julia
Morton is her prize, by heaven!"
Ho then rushed aft, roaring, "Shift
your helm two points; let tho shift be
gradual! Grindal, trim with caution!
A holllsh trap to stumble on! AH ot
a sudden, too!" Ho was blood-red with
sensations and passions.
Popo was perfectly right; but then
no seaman ntded by a glass could
havo mistaken; tho schooner was un
doubtedly tho beautiful fabric com
manded by Captain Bland, and tho
ship with her fore-topmost gone an
swered In overy mlnuto point to tho
description Popo had received of tho
Madro do DIos.
"Damnation! she's after us," bellow
ed Crystal.
And Buro enough tho frlgato might
bo seen with yards slowly squaring,
rounding slowly out from her con
sorts, and as sho brought her bow
guns to bear upon tho Gypsy, flash!
and her most intolligiblo hint of
thunder veiled the fok'sle In blue pow
der smoke.
Tho brig was put dead beforo tho
wind. Hor people tolled In frantic
haste, and In a frenzy of desire to
escape; for well did thoy know tho
penalty that many of them would have
to pay If that shapely cloud of soft,
swelling whiteness astern brought tho
grinning artillery of the hull below
within easy reach of tho Gypsy's
spars.
"I expect that scoundrel Bland has
peached," says Crystal fiercely to
Popo, while the two captains stood to
gether near tho wheel watching their
lofty, swaying pursuer. "Does ho
gain on us?"
"No," answered Pope, with the sud
den decision of conviction. "But
curso seize this swell! Is It tho fore
runner of a calm? Then we are dead
men, Johnny. Or Is there wind bo-
hind It?"
"I bellevo I seo wind in that sky,"
answered Crystal, looking into the
southeast. "What shall you do If she
overhauls us?"
"Strike," answered Pope.
"I'll not bo taken alive," said Crys
tal. "So help mo God, I will shoot
myself when you strike, if, after fight
ing them, I am alive. I'll not swing."
Again tho frigate tried the range;
to no purpose. All tho pirates looking
as ono man could not Beo where tho
shot hit tho water.
Thero could be no question that tho
Gypsy was not only holding her own,
but that sho was distancing hor pur
suer. When her people made sure of
this, their savage exultations broko
out. They filled cans of gin and rum,
and Popo, flourishing a glassful, roar
ed out:
"Here's to our bravo Httlo sweet
heart. Hero's to hor darling hoels, my
lads. Drink to her drink to hor!"
And a roaring huzza went up from
the crew.
"If they're going to broach the liquor
casks in this fashion," muttered Crys
tal in Popo's ear, making a dreadful
faco as he slowly turned his eyes
from the frigate, "thero'll bo no fight
ing whon fighting's wanted."
"There'll be no fighting anyhow,"
answered Pope. "What! with a fifty-
guh ship, and Bay four hundred and
fifty of a crow? A Blnglo broadside
would blow us Into ribs."
At four o'clock in tho afternoon tho
frlgato was still in chnso, but tho light
breezo and tho keen entry of tho brig
had helped hor as though with tho
gift of an auxiliary screw, and now
when you looked at tho man-of-war
you saw that she was sunk to her
ports, but still sho hung astern, a full
majestic moon of canvas deadly in
resolved pursuit.
"Ain't tho wind sennting," said Grin
dal to Captain Pope, creasing his
nose and snuffling as he brought his
wicked eyes to bear on his comman
der, t
"Wo may havo it out of southeast,"
answered Pope, "I Bhall keep all on,
everything abroad, dead boforo It until
wo can sail her into darkness which
can't ho far off; though flro selzo that
buu! d'yo notico how alow ho nlways
Is in his going when night's wanted
in a hurry?"
It was a famous saying of Nelson,
"that at sea a good deal must bo lcftN
to chance," and very often chance,
which is another name for fortune,
will show mercy to tho undeserving
even to pirates, though a meritorious
frlgato has been sweating astern all
day In their wake. For by six o'clock
tho Bky southeast was painted a
threatening dark gray with a mass of
loqse stuff sulkily scaling off it; and
now it was that both Popo and Crys
tal stood waiting breathlessly; it was
llfo or death to them; thoy stared into
the horizon and their faces looked
their tremendous intentions. Each
man as ho gazed saw tho brig filled
wltn men-of-warsmen and his own
corpse crimsoning the white plapk
with a great bullet wound In his head.
No! these starving master mariners
had hoisted the abhorred flag for a
fortune, not for a gibbet.
Then with no further scanting the
wind shifted all of a sudden slap with
tho run of the bwcII.
"Starboard your holm! Starboard
your helm!" roared Pope. "See what
aro they doing yonder?"
Such a cheer as a man reprieved
from death would Bend up to heaven
or being a scoundrel plrato would send
down to tho devil, broke from Pope's
deep throat as ho dropped the tele
scope and turned to Crystal. Tho fri
gate with a shift of wind had down
helm and was bracing her yards up to
join tho two vessels out of sight be
hind tho rim of tho sea. She had
abandoned tho pursuit.
With a huge oath Crystal dashed his
cap on to tho deck, shouting, "What
an escape!"
Scarce had ho said this when all
hands began to seo what had hap
pened and they fell mad. The decks
were covered with dancing figures,
the air was split with their hideoua
roars of joy.
CHAPTER XIV.
The Thetis, West Indlaman.
Nothing happened the next two
days. The crow were bitterly dis
appointed by the oscapo of tho Madre.
They admitted that their commander
had not deceived them. That sort
of fortune over which tho black star
trembles had admitted thom to a sight
of tho object of their cruise; but for
Bland and his accursed schooner, tho
Spaniard might havo been theirs.
However, it was to bo tho next
ship; Captain Popo had sworn it. Cap
tain Crystal had echoed the oath. Tho
men, defeated In their greed, wild to
get money and end tho , dangerous
cruise, were furiously determined.
It was a Sunday morning, fair and
peaceful; one of those Bweot, warm
mornings, which at sea mako you
think of tho glad music of tho moun-
Ing lark, whllo memory calls up the
woodland scene, tho dusty road, the
little highway Inn.
Crystal had come up from breakfast,
leaving Pope at table, and Grindal, re
lieved from his watch on deck, waa
rolling forward, when a loud, clear
voice, sang from tho fore-top-gallatf
yard, "Sail ho!"
(To be cpntlnucd.)
Artificial Babies.
A genius has invented a mechanical
baby designed for tho use of ladles,
when traveling, who wish to secure
the solo use of a compartment of a
railway carriage. Here Is an extract
from his printed circular:
"Common traveling infants yielding
Intermittent cries of fear, and capa
ble of being put into the pocket, 10s.;
second class, crying not too loudly,
but lamentably and lnsupportably,
20s.; third class, full squallers, with
a very piercing and aggravating voice
of flvo octaves, 2; tho same ar
ranged as a prompt repeater, 2 6s.;
fifth class, first quality, capable of
continued squalling, 3. These babies
can not only be set going in a moment
(as Indeed can most living ones), but
they can also bo stopped as quickly,
which, tho natural ones cannot."

Caustic Criticism.
R. K. Munklttrlck. editor of Judge,
tells a good story of one of his neigh
bors out in tho wilds of Now Jersey.
Tho said neighbor, whllo In a prepara
tory school, concluded that he would
one day startlo tho world with his
lofty literary style.
Having devoured many works of
rhetoric, ho finally landed In Harvard,
where ho determined to begin with
his "startling" tactics. Ho prepared,
at great longth, an essay that ho sayB
ho considered a masterpiece of sub
limo and lofty style. When it camo
back ho was quite astonished to find
tho following brief criticism written
across ita face in large blue-pencil
letters:
"Don't you think you took a pretty
long run for so short a slldo?" New

An Early Chamberlain 8peech.
Some fanciful stories aro being cir
culated about Joseph Chamberlain
and his oratorical powers as a youth,
i but from what a friend of his says
when at school. In fact, he could
never be Induced to speak, and in tnia
he- somewhat resembled tho retiring
Arthur Balfour. One day one of the
masters of the school asked Chamber
lain to make reply to a speech which
had Just been delivered by ono of tho
older students of the debating class.
'I he hour c'ame, and with a firm step
Chamberlain mounted the platform.
With perfect outward self-possession
he faced the audience and made his
bow a low bow. Every one waited
expectantly. People became anxious
when the young man again bowed
but said nothing. Then a titter went
round among tho boys. Suddenly tho
coming colonial secretary, with a look
of utter despair, sidled off the plat
form wHti another bow, not having
said one word.
ART OF'P.cST.
May Be
Acquired and Used
With
Great Benefit.
Complete and restful polso of tha
body and mind Is an art not easily
gained.
Perhaps nothing brings ono as
much content, comfort, happiness
and pleasure as thoso conditions of
easy, restful, resourceful and well
balanced mind and body, that mako of
work a pleasure and the daily llfo
happy and peaceful.
Tho nervous housewife busy with a
hundred duties and harrassed by child
ren; the business man, worried with
tho press of dally affairs, debts, etc.,
cannot enjoy the peace and restful
reposo and healthful nervous balance
unlesn they know how.
There is a way. First and foremost
tho stomach must bo consulted. That
means leaving off coffee absolutely,
for the temporary stimulant and the
resulting depression is a sure ruin to
the nervous system, and the whole
I condition of health and hannlnnsn
resta upon stomach, nerves and mind,
Start with the Btomach, that is tho
j keystono to tho whole arch. Stop
i "sing things that break down its
Pwer' "Pset ,ts nervous energy and
I prevent tho proper digestion of tho
food and tho consequent manufacture
1 of healthful blood and nerves, bratn
and tissues.
. When you quit coffee take on Pos
turn Food Coffee. That ia like step
ping the payment of interest and
starting on a career where you aro
loaning money and receiving interest.
The good results are double. You
stop poisoning tho system with coffee
and start building up tho broken down
nerve cells by powerful elements con
tained in Postum. Theso are pure
food elements ably selected by ex
perts for the purpose of supplying
Just the thing required by Nature to
perform this rebuilding.
I Theso are solid substantial facts
and can be proven clearly to tho sat
isfaction of anyone, by personal ex
perience. Try the chango yourself
and note how tho old condition of
shattered nerves and
worried mind
changes to that feeling of restful polso
of a well balanced nervous system.
The managing physician of a hygi
enic sanitarium in Indiana says that
for five years In his practice ho has
always Insisted upon the patients
leaving off coffee and taking Postum
Food Coffee with the most posltlvo,
well defined results and with satisfac
tion to tho most confirmed coffeo
toper.
