saw the boat-puller pass a rifle to the
hunter. Wolf Larsen went amidships
and took tha coll of the throat-halyards
from Its pin. Then he peered over the
rati with leveled rifle. Twice 1 saw the
hunter let go the steering-oar with one
hand, reach for his rifle, and hesitate.
We were now alongside and foaming
past
"Here, you!" Wolf Larsen cried sud-
denly to the boat-puller. "Take a
turn 1"
At the same time he flung the coll
of rope. It struck fairly, nearly
knocking the man over, but he did not
obey. Instead, be looked to his hunter
for orders. The hunter, in turn, was
In a quandary. His rifle was between
his knees, but if he let go the steer-
Ing-oar In order to shoot, the boat
would sweep around and collide with
the schooner. Also he saw Wolf Lar-
son's rifle bearing upon him and knew
he would be shot ere he could get his
rifle into play,
"Take a turn," he Bald quietly to the
man.
The boat-puller obeyed, taking a turn
around the little forward thwart and
paying the line as It Jerked taut The
boat sheerod out with a rush, and the
hunter steadied it to a parallel course
some twenty feet from the side of the
Ghost.
"Now get that sail down and come
alongside!" Wolf Larsen ordered.
Once aboard, the two prisoners
hoisted In the boat and under Wolf
Larson's direction carried the wound-
ed boat-stearer down Into the fore- ]
castle.
"If our ive boats do as well as you
and I have done, we'll have a pretty
full crew." Wolf Larsen said to me.
"The man you shot—ho Is, I hope—"
Maud Brewster quavered.
"In the shoulder," he answered.
"Nothing serious. Mr. Van Weyden
will pull him around as good as ever lu
three or four weeks."
"But he won't pull those chaps
around, from the look of It," he added,
pointing at the Macedonia's third boat,
for which I had been steering and
which was now nearly abreast of us.

angles to it and fluttering and flapping
In the wind. The hunter and boat-
puller were both lying awkwardly In
the bottom, but the boat steerer lay
across tho gunwale, half In and half
out, his arms trailing in the water and
When we hove to, a hasty though or-
derly confusion reigned. The boats
came aboard from every side at once.
As fast as the prisoners came over
the rail they were marshaled forward
Into the forecastle by our hunters,
while our sailors hoisted In the boats,
pell-mell, dropping them anywhere up
on the deck and not stopping to lash
them. We were already under way, all
sails set and drawing, and the sheets
being slacked off for a wind abeam, as
the last boat lifted clear of the water
md swung In the tackles.
There was need for haste. The
Macedonia, belching the blackest of
smoke from her funnel, was charging
down upon us from out of the north-
east. Neglecting the boats that re-
mained to her, she had altered her
course so as to anticipate ours. She
was not running straight for us, but
ahead of us. Our courses were con-
verging like the sides of an angle, the
verttex of which was at the edge of the
fog-bank. It was there, or not at all,
that the Macedonia could hope to catch
us. The hope for the Ghost lay In
that she should pass that point before
the Macedonia arrived at It.
"Better get your rifles, you fellows,"
Wolf Larsen called to our hunters;
and the five men lined the lee rail,
guns In hand, and waited.
The Macedonia was now but a mile
away, the black smoke pouring from
her funnel at. a right angle, so madly
she raced, pounding through the sea at
seventeen-knot gait—" 'Sky-hooting
through the brine,'" as Wolf Larsen
quoted while gazing at her. We were
not making more than nine knots, but
the fog-bank was very near.
A puff of smoke broke from the
Macedonia's deck, we heard a heavy
report, and a round hole took form In
the stretched canvas of our mainsail.
They were shooting at us with one of
the small cannon which rumor had
said they carried on board. Our men.
clustering amidships, waved their
hats and raised a derisive cheer. Again
there was a puff of smoke and a loud
report, this time the cannon ball strik-
ing not more than twenty feet astern
and glancing twice from sea to sea to»
windward ere It sank.
But there was no rlfle-flrlng for the
reason that all their hunters were out
In the boats or our prisoners. When
the two vessels were half a mile apart,
a third shot made another hole In our
mainsail. Then we entered the fog. It
was about us, veiling and hiding us In
Its dense wet gauze.
The sudden transition was startling.
The moment before we had been leap-
ing through the sunshine, the clear
sky above us, the sea breaking and
rolling wide to the horizon, and a ship,
vomiting smoke and fire and Iron mis-
siles, rushing madly upon us. And at
once, as In an Instant's leap, the sun
was blotted out, there was no sky,
even our mastheads wero lost to view,
and our horizon was such as tear-blind-
ed eyes may see.
It was weird, strangely weird. I
looked at Maud Brewster and knew
that she was similarly affected. Then
I looked at Wolf Larsen, but there was
nothing subjective about his state of
consciousness. His whole concern was
with the immediate, objective present.
He still held the wheel, and I felt that
he was timing time, reckoning the
passage of the minutes with each for
ward lunge and leeward roll of the
GhoBt.
"Go for'ard and hard-a-lee without
any noise." he said to mo in a 1q*'
voice. "Clew up the topsails first. Set
bare. No wrathful Macedonia broke
Its surface nor blackened the sky with
her smoke.
Wolf Larsen at once squared away
and ran down along tho rim of the fog
bank. His trick was obvious. He had
entered the fog to windward of the
steamer, and while the steamer had
blindly driven on Into the fog In the
chance of catching him he had come
about and out of his shelter and was
now running down to re enter to lee-
ward. Successlul In this, the old simile
of the needle In the haystack would be
mild Indeed compared with his broth-
er's chance of finding him.
He did not run long. Jibing the fore
and main sails and setting the topsails
again, we headed back Into the bank.
As we entered I could have sworn I
saw a vague bulk emerging to wind-
ward. 1 looked quickly at Wolf Lar-
sen. Already we were ourselves
burled In the fog, but he nodded his
head. He, too, had seen it—the Mace-
donia, guessing his maneuver and fall
lng by a moment In anticipating It.
There was no doubt that we had es-
caped unseen.
"I'd give five hundred dollars,
though," Wolf Larsen said, "Just to be
aboard the Macedonia for five minutes,
listening to my brother curse."
"And now, Mr. Van Weyden," he
satd to me when ho had been relieved
from the wheel, "we must make these
newcomers welcome. Serve out plenty
of whisky to the hunters and see that
a few bottles slip for'ard. I'll wager
every man Jack of them Is over the
side tomorrow, hunting for Wolf Lar
sen as contentedly as ever they hunted
for Death Larsen."
Wolf Larsen took the distribution of
the whisky off my hands, and the bot-
tles began to make their appearance
while I worked over the fresh batch of
wounded men In the forecastle. I had
seen whisky drunk, but never as these
w#s flushed and vivacious. Her wit
was playing keenly. and she was enjoy
lng the tilt as much as Wolf Larsen
and he was enjoying It hugely. For
some reason though I know not why.

he drew nearer, tha firing ceased.
No noise, understand, no noise."
When all was ready, the word "hard-
a-lee" was passed forward to me from
man to man; and the Ghost heeled
about on the port tack with practically
no noise at all. And what little there
was—the slapping of a few reefpolnts
and the creaking of a Bheave In a block
or two—was ghostly under the hollow
echoing pall In which we were
swathed.
Wo had scarcely filled away, It
Boemed, when the fog thinned abruptly
and we were again In the sunshine, the

to the skyline. But the ocean was
men drank It, from pannikins and
mugs, and from the bottles great
brimming drinks, each one of which
was In Itself a debauch. But they did
not stop at one or two. They drank
and drank, and ever thfe bottles slipped
forward and they drank more.
The steerage, where were two
wounded hunters, was a repetition of
the forecastle, except that Wolf Lar-
sen was not being cursed; and It was
with a great relief that I again
emerged on deck and went aft to the
cabin. Supper waa ready, and Wolf
Larsen and Maud were waiting for me.
While all his ship was getting drunk
as fast as It could he remained sober.
Not a drop of liquor passed his lips.
He did not dare tt under the circum-
stances, for he had only Louis and me
to depend upon, and Louis was even
now at the wheel. We were sailing on
through the fog without a lookout and
without lights. That Wolf Larsen had
turned the liquor loose among his men
surprised me, but he evidently knew
their psychology and the best method
of cementing In cordiality what had
begun In bloodshed.
His victory over Death Larsen
seemed to have had a remarkable ef-
fect upon him. The previous evening
he had reasoned himself Into the blues
and I had been waiting momentarily
for one of his characteristic outbursts.
Yet he discovered himself In splendid
trim when I entered the cabin. He had
had no headaches for weeks, his eyes
wero clear blue as the sky, his bronze
was beautiful with perfect health;
life swelled through his veins In full
and magnificent flood. While waiting
for me he had engaged Maud In ani-
mated discussion. He seemed voluble,
prone to speech as I had never seen
him before. The discussion was on
love and, as usual, his was the sheer
materialistic side, and Maud's was the
Idealistic. For myself, beyond a word
or so of suggestion or correction now
and again, 1 took no part.
He waa brilliant, but so was Maud,
and for some time I lost the thread of
tiie conversation through studying her
face as she talked. It was a face that
rarely displayed color, but tonight It

As he had read pessimism into
Omar, so now he read triumph, stln^
lng triumph and exultation, Into Swln-
burne'B lines. And he read rightly,
and he read well. He had hardly
ceased reading when Lonls put hit
head Into the companionway and whis-
pered down:
"Be easy, will ye? Th« fog's lifted,
an' 'tis the port light l» a steamet
that's croBsln' our bow this bleBsed
minute."
Wolf Larsen Bprang Q» deck, and so
swiftly thai by the time we followed
him he had pulled the steerage-slide
over tho drunken clamoT and was on
his way forward to close the forecas-
tle-scuttle. The fog, though It re-
mained, had lifted high, where It ob-
scured the stars and made the night
quite black. Directly ahead of us I
could see a bright red light and a whtt®
light, and I could hear the pulsing of a
steamer's engines. Beyond a doubt It
was the Macedonia.
Wolf Larsen had r«turned to the
poop, and we stood in a silent group,
watching the lights rapidly cross our
bow.
"Lucky for me he doesn't carry a
searchlight," Wolf Larsen said.
"What If I should cry out loudly T"
I queried In a whisper.
"It would be all up," ha answered.
"But have you thought upon what
would Immediately happen?"
Before I had time to express any de-
sire to know, he had me by the throat
with his gorilla grip, and by a faint
quiver of the muscles—a hint, as It
were—he suggested to me the twist
that would surely have broken my
neck. The next moment he had re-
leased me and we were gazing at the
Macedonia's lights.
"What If I should cry out?" Maud
"I like you too well to hurt you," he
said softly—nay, there was a tender-
ness and a caress In his voice that
made me wince. "But don't do it, Just
the same, for I'd promptly break Mr.
Van Weyden's neck."
"Then she has my permission to cry
out," I said defiantly.
"I hardly think you'll care to sacri-
fice the Dean o' American Letters the
Second." he sneered.
We spoke no more, though we had
become too used to one another for the
silence to be awkward; and when tho
red light and the whlta had disap-
peared we returned to the cabin to
finish the Interrupted supper.
If ever Wolf Larsen attained tha
summit of living, hp attained It then.
From tlmo to time 1 forsook my own
thoughts to follow him, and 1 followed
In amaze, mastered for the moment by
his remarkable Intellect, under tha
spell of his passion, for he was preach-
ing the passion of revolt. It waB In-
evitable that Milton's Lucifer should
be Instanced, and the keenness with
which Wolf Larsen analyzed and de-
picted the character was a revelation
of his stifled genius. It reminded me
of Talne, yet I knew the man had
never heard of that brilliant though
dangerous thinker.

Bonus System in Japan.
The highest salaried man In Jupnn
dues not receive enough money In that
form to pay for gasoline used by his
automobile, fur salaries of the man-
ngers of business corporations are in-
significantly small, says the Japan
Times. Salaries, however, are not the
total Income of business men. Under
the Japanese custom there Is a liberal
bonus system, and the bonus amounts
to 300 or 400 times the monthly salary
In some cases.
The Mitsui company is regarded as
the biggest corporation in Japan nnd
their directors are noted for their
large Incomes. Each director Is said
to receive In the form of a bonus
ahont $100,000 a year, although his
salary tnny be only $250 a month.
Here's a Tip About Hotel Guests.
In the American Magazine u writer
says:
"Here's a funny thing, by the way,
that I've noticed about hotel guests:
You have a soiled towel in a room,
and the guest will probably complain.
But you can leave a busket of paint
and a paperhanger's scaffold In the
hallway, and compel the guest to
crawl»under a stepladder to get to his
room, and he will put up with it
cheerfully—because he knows you
are painting or papering by way of
making an improvement, and he Is in
sympathy with that. It doesn't cost
i.iuch to make over a carpet so that
a bare spot In front of the dresser
will be eliminated, but such little de-
tails are a vast help lu making a
hotel prosper."
Unbreakable Windows.
Repeated coats of raw or boiled lin-
seed oil applied to a newly meshed wire
fabric will give a good substitute for
window glass. The wire may be used
for many purposes, and Is especially
good where glass might easily be
broken. The fabric may be dipped in
the oil Instead of applying it with a
brush.
Stevenson as a German 8py.
It Is interesting, says the London
Chronicle, to recall that Stevenson
has recorded his imprisonment in
France as a German spy. so foreign
looking waa he In appearance. An-
drew Lang found his appearance at
twenty-eight was anything but that
of a Scotsman, and the lame difficulty
pursued the novelist through life,
more especially on the continent
"It is a great thing, believe me," he
wrote in tha Inland Voyage, "to pre-
sent a good normal type of the nation
you belong to," and, as he says in the
same chapter. "I might come from any
part of the globe, it seemB, except
from where I do."
Salt Water Improves Coal.
In recovering cargoes of coal from
sunken vessels it has been discovered
that the combustion of coal Is Im-
proved by submergence In salt water.
Coal subjected to the action of sea-
water for a number tit yearn will burn
almost entirely away, leaving only a
small amount of ash and no clinkers.
Crates of coal, each holding approxi-
mately two tons, were submerged by
the British admiralty to 1903, and at
different times since certain of them
have been raised and experiments con-
ducted. The tests all have been la
