CHAPTER XV.—(Continued.)
“1 must «ay," replied Philip, "that,
whenever 1 have fallen In with that
vessel, mischief has ever followed."
‘‘Ves .el! why, what was there In that
vessel to frighten you? She carried
too much sail, and she has gone
down.”
"She never goes down,” replied one
of the seamen.
"No! no!" exclaimed many voices;
| "but we shall If we do not run back.”
"Pooh! nonsense! Mynheer Vander
decken, what say you?"
“I have already stated my opinions,"
replied Philip, who was anxious. If
possible, to see the ship one more In
port, "that the best thing we can do
is to bear up for Table Hay."
"And, captain,” continued the old
seaman who had Just spoken, "we are
all determined that It shall be so,
whether you like It or not; so up with
the helm, my hearty, and Mynheer
Vanderdecken will trim the sails.”
"Why! what Is this?" cried Captain
Barentz, "A mutiny on board of the
Vrow Katrina? Impossible! The
Vrow Katrina! the best ship, the fast
est In the whole fleet!”
"The dullest old rotten tub!" cried
one of the seamen.
“What!” cried the captain, "what do
I hear? Mynheer Vanderdecken, con
fine that lying rascal for mutiny."
"Pooh! nonsense! he's mad," replied
the old seaman. “Never mind him;
come, Mynheer Vanderdecken, we w
obey you; but the helm must be up im
mediately,”
“1 did object to receive them." stat
InK that they ought to go out In some
vessel which wan not so Incumbered
with troops, bo that they might re
main on the main deck; but they re
plied that the Invoices were made out
and could not be ultered. But now to
act. My Idea In to keep the hatches
on, so as to smother It If possible."
"Yea," replied Krantz, "and at the
same time cut u hole In the deck Just
large enough to admit the hose und
pump as much water as we can Into
the hold."
"You are right, Krantz; send for the
carpenter and set him to work. I will
turn the hands np, and speak to the
men. I smell the Are now very strong;
there is no time to lose. If we can
only keep the troops and the women
quiet we may do something."
Two hours later, however, the fire
had gained such headway that they
had to take measures to abandon the
ship.
The eolumn of Are now aseended
above the maintop—licking with Its
forky tongue the topmast rigging—and
embracing the mainmast In Its folds;
and the loud roar with which it as
cended proved the violence and rapid
ity of the combustion below, and how
little time there was to he lost, The
lower and main decks were now so fill
ed with smoke that no one could re
main there; some poor fellows, sick
In their cots, had long been smothered,
for they had been forgotten, The swell
had much subsided, and there was not
a breath of wind; the smoke which
rose from the hatchways ascended
straight up in the air, which, as the
vessel had lost all steerage way, was
fortunate. The boats were soon In
the water, ami trusty men placed In
them; the spars were launched over,
arranged by the men In the boats and
lashed together. AU the gratings were
then collected and firmly fixed upon
the spars for the people to sit upon;
and Philip's heart was glad at the
pro:-pert which he now had of sav
ing the numbers which were em
barked.
The captain stormed, but Philip, by
acknowledging the superiority of his
vessel, ut the same time that he blam
ed the seamen for their panic, pointed
out to him the necessity of compli
ance, and Mynheer Barents at last
consented. The helm was put up, the
sails trimmed, and the Vrow Katerina
rolled heavily before the gale. Toward
the evening the weather moderated,
and the sky cleared up; both sea and
wind subsided fast; the leaking de
creased, and Philip was In hopes that
In a day or two they would arrive safe
ly in the bay.
As they steered their course, so did
the wind gradually decrease, until at
last it fell calm; nothing remained of
the tempest but a long heavy swell
which set to the westward, and before
which the Vrow Katerina was gradu
ally drifting. This was a respite to
the worn-out seamen, and also to the
troops and passengers who had been
cooped below or drenched on the main
deck.
The upper deck was crowded; moth
ers basked in the warm sun. with their
children in their arms. The rigging
was filled with the wet clothes, which
were hung up to dry on every part of
the shrouds, and the seamen were
busily employed in repairing the in
juries of the gale. By their reckoning,
they were not more than fifty miles
from Table Bay, and each moment
they expected to see the land to the
southward of It. All was again mirth,
and everyone on board, except Philip,
considered that danger was no more
to he apprehended.

But their dtffiru 11lew were not sur

where it was more exposed to the
swell. This retarded their labor, and,
in the meantime, the Are was making
rapid progress; the mainmast, which
had long been burning, fell over the
side with the lurching of the vessel,
and the flames out of the main deck
ports soon showed their points above
the bulwarks, while volumes of smoke
were poured in upon the upper deck,
almost suffocating the numbers which
were crowded there; for ail commun
ication with the fore part of the ship
had been for some time cut off by
the flames, and everyone had retreated
aft. The women and children were now
carried on to the poop, not only to re
move them further from the suffocat
ing smoke, but that they might be
lowered down to the raft from the
stern.
it was about 4 o'clock in the morn
ing when all was ready, and by the
exertions of Philip and the seamen,
notwithstanding the swell, the women
and children were tafely placed on
the raft, where it was considered that
they would lie less in the way, a» the
men could relieve each other in pull
ing when they were tired.
After the women and children had
been lowered down, the troops were
next ordered to descend hy the lad

quitted the gangway and gone down
below. Commending himself, and
those embarked with him, to the care
of Providence, he at last fell asleep:
but before the bell was struck eight
times, to announce midnight, he was
awakened by a rude shove of the shoul
der. and perceiving Krantz, the second
mate, who had the flrst watch, sland
ing by him.
“By the heaven above us, Vander
lecken. you have prophesied right. Up

“On tire!" exclaimed Vuuderdecken.

I "The main hold."

pcared to bo who should first escape,
though, except by Jumping overboard,
there was no escape. Had they watted,
and (as Philip would have pointed out
to them) have one by one thrown
themselves into the sea, the men in
the boats were fully prepared to pick
them up; or had they climbed out to
the e:’d of the lateen mizzen-yard,
which was lowered down, they might
have descended safely by a rope, but
the scorching of the flames whi-h
surrounded them and the stiffocati n
from the smoke was overpowering ;.id
most of the soldiers sprang over the
taffrall at once, or as nearly so as pos
sible. The consequence was, that there
were thirty or forty In the water at the
same time, and the scene was as heart
rending as it was appalling; the sail
ors In the boats dragging them in as
fast us they could—the women on the
raft, throwing to them loose garments
to haul them In; at one time a wife
shrieking as she saw her husband
struggling and sinking Into eternity;
at another, curses and execrations
from the swimmer who was grappled
with by the drowning man, and drag
ged with him under the surface. Of
eighty men who were left of the troops
on board at the time of the bursting
out of the flames from the stern win
dows, but twenty-five were saved.
There were but few seamen left on
board with Philip, the major part hav
ing been employed in making the raft
or manning the three boats; those
who were on board remained by his
side, regulating their motions by his.
After allowing full time for the sol
diers to be picked up, Philip ordered
the men to climb out to the end of
the lateen yard which hung on the
taffrall, and either to lower themselves
down on the raft If It was under, or
to give notice to the bouts to receive
them. The raft had been dropped fur
ther astern by the seamen, that those
on hoard of It might not suffer from
the smoke and heat; and the sailors,
one after another, lowered themselves
down and were received by the boats.
Philip desired Capt. Barents to go
before him, but the captain refused,
lie was too much choked with smoke
to say why, but no doubt that It would
have been something in praise of the
Vrow Katerina. Philip then climbed
out; he was followed by the captain,
and they were both jeetdved into one
of the boats.
The rope, which had hitherto held
the raft to the ship, was now cast off,
and It was taken In hy the boats; and
In a short time the Vrow Katerina
was borne to leeward of them, and
Philip and Krantz now made arrange
ments for the better disposal of the
people. The sailors were almost all
put into boats, that they might relieve
one unother in pulling; the remainder
were placed on the raft, along with
the soldiers, the women and the chil
dren. Notwithstanding that the boats
were all as much loaded as they could
well bear, the numbers on the raft
were so great that It sunk nearly a
foot under the water when the swell
of the sea poured upon it; but stanch
ions and ropes to support those on
board had been fixed, and the men re- ,
mained at the sides, while the women
and children were crowded together in
the middle.
As soon as these arrangements were
made the boats took the raft in tow,
and, just as the dawn of day appeared,
pulled in the direction of the land.
The Vrow Katerina was by this time
one volume of flame; she had drifted
about half a mile to leeward, and i
Capt. Parentz. who was watching as
he sat in the boat with Philip, ex
claimed: “Well, there goes a lovely
ship- a ship that could do everything
but speak. I’m sure that not a ship
in the fleet would have made such a !
bonfire as she has. Does she not burn ■
beautifully- nobly? My poor Vrow i
Katerina' perfect to the last; we never
shall see such a ship as you again. |
Well, Pm glad my father did not live j
to see this sight, for It would have [
broken his heart, poor man.”

SOUTHERN UTE RESERVATION
Indian Land* In Colorado Opened to
Kettlere.
The opening of the Southern Ute
Indian Reservation has at lust been
accomplished. This vast area of arable
lands, fifteen by sixty miles in extent,
lies on either side of the Denver & Rio
(lrar.de railroad, South and East of
Durango. Under the law, the Ute In
dians are entitled to 374 allotments,
leaving about 630,000 acres subject to
entry under the desert homestead, tim
ber and townslte laws and the laws
governing the disposal of coal, min
eral, stone and timber lands, and as
the Indians may lease their allotments,
Intelligent white men will soon con
trol many of them at reasonable rent
als. The lands embrace both valley
and mesa, or uplands, but the supply
of water for Irrigation is many times
the amount required, making the lands
suitable for grain and grasses, veg
etables, alfulfa and fruit trees. Clover
often yields three and one-half tons
per acre. The stock industry gives
promise of almost unlimited growth.
The lands allotted to the Indians ag
gregate 60,000 acres and are generally
in compact form. They may be leased
for three years for agricultural pur
poses and ten years for mining and
grazing lands. These leased lands are
exempt from taxation and free from
• cost of water charges as the Indians
own the canals and ditches. The rental
is generally a small amount in cash
and from one-third to one-fourth of
the crops. The ludlans may be hired
to work at low wages. This money and
the $50,000 which Is to bo paid to the
Indians annually by the government
"forever,” means plenty of the circu
lating medium In the locality at all
times. Homestead settlers ure required
to pay not less than $1.25 per aero,
fifty cents of which, ppr acre, shall be
paid at the time of (Ding. This pro
vision shuts out the professional boom
er and invites men of thrift and en
ergy and Industry. These will be the
last of the public domain entries in
Colorado. It is the last chance for
cheap, fertile and enviable homes. The
land offices are at Durango, Colo., the
terminus of the Denver & Rio Grande
railroad. The traveler from the mid
dle West should take the Missouri Pa
| ciflc System to Pueblo where he will lie
taken by the Denver & Rio Grande
which la the only line reaching the
Uto Indian Reservation. It fraverses
for 60 miles the most desirable por
tions of the lands subject to entry.
The ethics cf wills has been cur
iously Illustrated in Germany. Herr
Myer, owner of a brewery at Johannes
burg. left to the town of Stettin $75,000
to build a museum. The municipal cor
poration. however, on presenting the
usual petition, was informed by the
minister of the interior that the em
peror refused his consent for the pres
ent, as the will violated a moral duty
toward idigent relations who had been
excluded from all benefits by the will
of the testator. The town was there
fore called upon by the minister first
to Indemnify the needy relations of the
deceased.

permanent shape last week at a meet
ing of the beads of the several depart
ments and general superintendents,

It was determined to replace the pres
ent dilatory process of running the

volving an expenditure of three weeks'

W. H. Mllburn, John Holmes, M R
Dagger, li. L. Stetson, of Uuena V'Uta
county, Iowa, report as follows of the
Canadian North-West as to Its suit
ability for farming. and the advan
tages it offers to the agricultural im
migrant from the United States:
“We came here solely to look up im
proved farms and. if suitable, to se
lect such as pleased us best. We have
not visiteil the homestead districts at
all, though we believe them to be very
inviting. Our inquiries have been
conilned solely to the district around
Ilartney. Deloralne and towards the
Souris River in Manitoba. Our im
pressions of all that region are in
every way satisfactory, and we have
d< cided to go back to Iowa at once,
and. having disposed of our several
Interests there, to return to Manitoba
in the month of March next. and. ef
fecting our purchase of Improved
farms, which we And we can do at
reasonable rates, Immedlatejy begin
farming. We are greatly pleased with
all that we have seen tn that part of
Western Canada. The soil we And to
be more than equal to that of our own
country for wheat-growing, and tho
oiher conditions of climate, schools,
markets, etc., arc all that we could
wish for.
"To show what an energettc man
can do we may mention that we found
one such at Hartney who had rented
a farm on shares, receiving two-thirds
of the returns as his share of the
crop. Whpn he came to sell his own
produce he found that his two-thirds,
when converted Into cash, was enough
to buy the farm he rented out and
out, which he accordingly did. and is
now Its owner. It is our intention to
induce as many of our friends as pos
sible, who are practical farmers, to re
move from Iowa to this country,
where we hetieve there is a better
future for the industrious man than
Is now to he found anywhere on this
continent. We are wett known In our
par of the state of Iowa, and wt> in
vite correspondence from its residents
In all parts with regard to this re
gion of Western Canada which wo
have visited, and to which we intend
to return."
