She prompt ly assumed the appearance of a help less cripple, signals of distress wera hung out, and a Somali in her rigging waved his loin cloth to attract atten tion. The atranger came on, decreasing the distance which aeparated the two boats until suddenly, when the dhow was some 200 yarda away, tba Kitty broke out her flag and fired a blank shot across the bows of the dhow. The heada of tbe twenty men could be counted upon the big dhow, and as tbe sun glinted upon the barrels of tbelr rifles the Kitty became aware that it waa not Impossible that she bad tackled an ugly customer and a valuable prize. - Lieutenant Bevan and Petty Officer Halstead were standing together when an answering shower of bullets rained upon them.

He gladly gave two heavy grips to the porter, and heaved a sigh as he signed for a room, and asked especially for a bath. "Yon look worn out," said Irving Doollttle, the clerk In charge, as the man leaned on the counter. "Well, I bave a right to be," said the man, "for I have walked all the way from the station, lugging those grips." "Why didn't you take a car?" asked the sympathetic clerk. "I simply didn't have tbe price. I was afraid to take a cab because I would necessarily hsve asked for cred it, and I wasn't sure that you would take me in when I am absolutely pen niless." "What's the matter? Been held up?" "Well, Just the same thing. I got caught with a scalper's ticket, and I didn't have money enough to pay my fare down from Chicago by just twen ty cents. What do you think of that for hard lines? I thought I would be gay yesterday and save a little, so I bought a ticket from n broker for $11. Oh, It looked like a good ticket, all right, till the conductor saw it. Tb.n be looked at It, tucked it in his pocket and said: " 'No good. Come up with the fare, or off you go I' "It was a case of dig. He bad the ticket, and what was I to do? I put up all I had, which was just about $12.30, or twenty cents short of tin fare." , " 'Will that do?' I asked him. S 'It would ordinarily, because I'd pass the twenty cents myself,' said be, but I've got no mercy on a Bcalper or a scalper's customer. So you'll huve to dig again.' "I dug, but not another red could I find. Finally I borrowed twenty cents from the porter on the strength of one of my grips, and I actually had to leave my watch with a barkeep across from the station to get tbe coin to pay that nigger before he would give me my baggage.
