CHAPTER XIV—Continued.

"By (he tall o* the Great Sacred
till," chattered ScraggR. "Gib's right."
McGuffey was plainly disappointed.
"I hadn't thought o' that at all Gib. 1
teen cherlshln' the thought o' lammln'
the whey out'n that mate, but If you
say so I'll give up the Idee. But If
brlngln' the Maggie II Into home wa-
ters Is Invltln' death, what In blue
blazes're we *oln' to do with her?"
Mr. Glbr.ey smiled—an arch, cunning
smile. "We'll give her to that inur-
derln' mate, free gratis."
Captain Scraggs bounded out of his
chair, struck the hot deck with his
bare feet, cursed, and hopped back
Into the chair again. McGufTey stared
Incredulously. "Gib, my dear boy,"
quavered Scraggs, "say that agin."
"Yes." continued the commodore
placidly, "we'll just get shet o' her
peaceable like by givln' her to this
mate. Don't forget, Scraggsy, old tar-
pot, that this mate's been passln' hlm-
«elf off foe you In Honolulu, an' If
there's ever an Investigation, the trail
leads to the Maggie II. This mate's
admitted being Captain Scraggs, an' If
he's found with the schooner in his
possession It'll take a heap o' evidence
for him to prove that he ain't Captain
Scraggs. We'll Just keep this here mate
in the brig while we're disposing of
our black coral, pearl, shell and copra
In HonoJulu, an' then, when we've
cleaned up, an* got our passages
booked for San Francisco—"
"B- t who savs we're goin' back to
San Francisco?" cut in McGuffey.
"Why, where else would men with
money in their pockets head for. you
oll-soakcd piece of Ignorance? Ain't
you had enough adventure to do you a
•pell?" demanded Captain Scraggs.
"Me an' Gib's for goin' back to San
Francisco, so shut up. If you got any
objection, you're outvoted two to one
In the syndicate."
McGuffey subsided, growling, and
Mr. Glbney continued:
"When we're ready to leave Hono-
lulu, we'll bring this mate on deck,
make him a kind Christian talk an*
give him the Maggie II with the com-
pliments o' the syndicate. He'll think
our sufferln's on that island has
touched us with religion an' he'll be so
tickled he'll keep his mouth shut.
Then, with all three of us safe an' out
o' the mess, an' the evidence off our
hands, we'll clear out for Gawd's coun-
try an' look around for some sort of a
profitable investment."
The commodore sighed. "She's a
love of a boat an' it breaks my heart
to give up the only command I've ever
bad, but the fact Is. Mac. her posses-
sion by us Is dangerous, an' we don't
need her. an' we can't sell her because
her record's got blurs on It. We can't
convey a clean an' satisfactory title.
Anyhow, she didn't cost us a cent an'
there ain't no real financial loss If we
give her to this mate. He'd be glad to
get her If she had yellow Jack aboard,
an* If he's caught with her he'll have
to do the explalnln'. When you're
caught with the goods In your posses-
sion. Mac. it makes the explalnln' all
the harder. Besides, we're three U
one, an' If It comes to a show-down |
later we can outswenr the mate."
Captain Scraggs picked his snaggle
teeth with the little blade of his jack-
knife and cogitated a minute.
"WeU," he announced presently, "far
be It from me to fly In the face o' a
felon's death. I've made a heap o'
money, follerln' Gib's advice, an' bust
my bob-stay if I don't stay put on this.
Gib, It'a your lead."
"Well, I'll follow suit. Gib's got all
the trumps," acquiesced the engineer.
"We got plenty o' dough an' no board
bills comln' due. so we'll loaf along-
shore until Gib digs up somethln'
good."
"How about Nells?" quer'ed Captain
Scraggs. "Ho we continue to let that
ex-deckhand In on our fortunes?"
"If Nells Halvorfwn had asked you
that question when he cnm(4|o rescue
you the day you lay a-d.vln' o' thirst
on that desert island, wouldn't you
have said yes?"
"Sure pop."
"Then don't ask no questions that's
unworthy of you," said Mr. Glhney se-
verely. "1 don't wont to see none o'
them green |wa trade ethics croppln'
up In you. Scraggsy. If it wasn't for
that Swede the scn-gulls'd he plckei'
our bones now. Nells Hnrvorsen Is In-
cluded In this syndicate for good."
"Amen." This from the honest Mc-
Guffey.
"Meetln's adjourned," said Cnptaln
Srt-aggs Icily.
Under the direction of the crafty
commodore, the valuable cargo of the
Maggie 11 was disposed of In Hono-
lulu. Purlin the perl ml while the
schooner lay at the dock discharging.
Captain Scraggs and McGuffey pru-
dently remained In the cabin with the
iicrfldtous tnn'e In rder that, should
an lineM'imt'nn be undertaken later
t>y the Treasury department, no man
{night swear that the real Phlneas
Scraggs, filibuster, had been in Hono-
lulu on a certain date. The Kanaka
crew of the schooner Mr. Glbney man-
aged to ship with an old shipmaster
friend bound for New Guinea, so their
testimony was out of the way for a
while, at least.
When the Maggie II was ffnally dis-
charged and the proceeds of her rich
cargo nestled, In crisp bills of large
denomination, In a money belt under
Mr. Gibney's armpits and next his ras-
cally skin, he purchased tickets under
assumed names for himself, Scraggs,
McGuffey and Halvorsen on the liner
Hllonian, due to sail at noon next day.
These details attended to, the Mag-
gie II backed away from the dock un-
der her own power and cast anchor off
the quarantine station. The mate was
then brought on deck and made to
confront the syndicate.
"It appears, my man," the commo-
dore began, "that you was to# anxious
to horn in on the profits o' this expe-
dition, so in a moment o' human weak-
ness you did your employers an evil
deed. We had it all figgered out to
feed you to the sharks on the way
home, because dead men tell no tales,
but our sufferln's on that Island has
caused us all to look with a milder
eye on mere human shortcoming. The
Good Book says: 'Forgive us our tres-
passes as we forgive those what tres-
pass agin us,' an' I ain't ashamed to
admit that you owe your wicked life
to the fact that Scraggsy's got religion
an' McGuffey ain't much better. But
we got all the money we need an'
we're goin' to Europe to enjoy It, so
before we go we're goin' to pass sen-
tence upon you. It Is the verdict o'
the court that we present you with the
power schooner Maggie II free gratis,
an' that you accept the same in the
same friendly sperrlt In which It Is
tendered. Havin' a schooner o' your
own from now on, you won't be
tempted to steal one an' commit whole-
sale murder a-doin' It. You're forgiven,
man. Take the Maggie II with our
blessln', organize a comp'ny, an' go
back to Kandavu an' make some money
t'or yourself. Scraggsy, are you a-wil-
lin' to prove that you've given this
errin' mate complete forgiveness by
shakin' hands with him?"
"I forgive him freely," said Captain
Scraggs, "an' here's my fin on it.'
The unfortunate mate hung his
head. He was much moved.
"You don't mean It, sir, dt> you?" he
faltered.
"I hope I may never see the back o*
my neck If I don't," replied the skip-
per.
"Surest thing you know, brother,"
shouted Mr. McGuffey and swatted the
deluded mate between the shoulders.
The Unfortunate Mate Huno Hi«
Head. He Was Much Moved.
"Take her with our compliments. You
was a good brave mate until you went
wrong. 1 ain't forgot how you
sprayed the hillsides with lead the day
Gib an' Scraggsy was took by them
cannibals. No, sir-eel I ain't holding
no grudge. It's human to commit
crime. I've <;omn)ltted one or two my-
self. Good luck to you, matey. Hope
you make a barrel o' money with the
old girl."
"Thanks." the mate mumbled. "I
ain't deservin' o' this nohow," and he
commenced to snivel a little.
Mr. Glbney forgot that he was play-
ing a hypocrite's part, and his gener-
ous nature overcame him.
"Pog my cata." he blustered, "what's
the use givln' him the vessel If we
don't give him some spondulicks to
outfit her with grub an' auppJIea? Poor
devil! 1 bet he ain't got a cent to
bless himself with. Scraggsy, old tar-
pot, If we're goin' to turn over a new
leaf an' be Christiana, let's sail under
a full cloud o' canvas."
"By Neptune, that's so, Gib. This
feller did us an awful dirty trick, but
at the same time there ain't a coward-
ly bone In his hull carcass. I ain't
forgot how he stood to the guns that
day off the Coronados when we was
attacked by the Mexicans."
"Stake the feller, Gib," advised Mc-
Guffey, and wiped away a vagrant
tear. He was quite overcome at his
own generosity and the manner In
which it had touched the hard heart
of the iniquitous mate.
Mr. Gibney laid five one-hundred-
dollar bills In the mate's palm.
"Good-by," he said gently, "an' see
If you can't be as much of a man an'
as good a sport hereafter as them
you've wronged an' who's forgive you
fully and freely."
One by one the three freebooters of
the green-pea trade pumped the
stricken mate's hand, tossed him a
scrap of advice,lind went overside In-
to the small boat which was to take
them ashore. It was a solemn parting
and Mr. Glbney and McGuffey were
snuffling audibly.
The next day, as the Hllonlah
steamed out of the harbor, bearing the
syndicate back to San Francisco, they
looked across at the little Maggie II
for the last time, nnd observed that
the mate was on deck, superintending
three Kanaka sailors who were hoist-
ing supplies aboard from n bumboat.
Commodore Glbney bade his first
command a misty farewell.
"Good-by, little ship," he yelled and
waved his hand. "Gawd! You was
a witch in a light wind."
Seven days after leaving Honolulu,
the Hllonian steamed into San Fran-
cisco bay. The syndicate could net
wait until she had tied up at her dock,
and the minute the steamer had passed
quarantine Mr. Gibney hailed a pass-
ing launch. Bag and baggage the
happy quartette descended to the
launch and landed at Melggs wharf.
Mr. Glbney stepped Into the wharfin-
ger's office and requested permission
to use the telephone.
What's up, Gib?" demanded Cap-
tain Scraggs.
I want to 'phone for a automohile
to come down an' snake us up town
In style. This syndicate ain't a-goln'
to come rnmpin' home to Gawd's coun-
try lookln' like a lot o' Eyetallan ped-
dlers. We're goin' to the best hotel
an' we're goin' In style."
With the assistance of the wharfin-
ger an automobile was summoned, and
In due course the members of the syn-
dicate found themselves ensconced in
a fashionable suite In San Franclsco'B
most fashionable hotel. Mr. Gibney
stored the syndicate's pearls in the ho-
tel safe, deposited an emergency roll
with the hotel clerk, and banked the
balance of the company funds In the
names of all four ; after which the syn-
dicate gave itself up to a period of
Joy unconfined.
At the end of a week of riot and
revelry Mr. Glbney revived sufficiently
to muster all hands and lead thera to
a Turkish bath. Two days in the bath
restored them wonderfully, and when
the worthy commodore eventually got
them back to the hotel he announced
that henceforth the lid was on—and
on tight. Captain Scraggs. who was
hard to manage In his cups and the
most prodigal of prodigals with steam
up to a certain pressure, demurred at
this.
"No more sky-larkln'. Scraggsy, you
old cut-up," Mr. Glbney ordered. "We
had our good time comln' after all
that we've been through, hut it's time
to get down to business agin. Riches
has wings. Scraggsy, old salamander,
an' even if we are ashore, I'm still the
commodore. Now, set around an' we'll
hold a meetln'."
He banged the chiffonier with his
great fist. "Meetln' o' the Maggie syn-
dicate." he announced. "Meetin'll
come to order. The first business be-
fore the meetln' Is a call for volun
teers to furnish a tnoney-makln' Idee
for the syndicate."
Nells Halvorsen shook his sorrel
head. He had no Ideas. B. McGuffey.
Ksqulre. shook his head also. Captain
Scraggs wanted to sing.
"I see It's up to me to suggest some-
thln'." Mr. Glbney smiled benignly, as
If a money-making idea was the easiest
thing on earth to produce. 'The last
thing I remember before we went to
that Turkish bath was us four visltln
a fortune teller an' havin' our fortunes
told, past, present an' future, for a
dollar n throw. Anybody here remem-
ber what his fortune was?"
It appeared that no one remembered,
not even Mr. Glbney. He then-lore
continued:
"The chair will app'lnt Mr. McGuf-
fey an' himself a committee o' two
to wait on one o' these here clairvoy-
ants and have their fortunes told
agin."
McGuffey, who was as superstitious
as a negro, seconded the motion heart-
ily and the committee forthwith sal-
lied forth to consult the clairvoyant.
Within the hour they returned.
"Members o' the syndicate," the com-
modore announced, "we got an Idea.
Not a heluva good one. but fair to
mlddlln'. Me an' Mac calls on this
Madame de What-you-may-call-her an'
the minute she gets a lamp at my mlt
(It Is worthy of remark here that Mr.
Glhney had a starfish tattooed on the
Iw'k of his left hand, a full-rigged ship
across his breast, and a gorgeous pic-
ture of a lady climbing a ladder
adorned the Inner side of his brawny
right forearm. The feet of the lady
In question hung down below the fringe
of Mr. Gibney's short sleeve) she got
up an' says: 'My friend, you're mak-
ln' a grave mistake remalnln' ashore.
Your fortune lies at sea.' Then she
threw a tit an' mumbled something
about a light haired man that was
goin' to cross my path. 1 guess she
must have meant Scraggsy or Nells,
both beln' blondes—an' she come out
of her trance sbiverln* an* shakin'.
"'Your fortune lies at sea, my
friend,' she kept on sayln'. 'Go forth
an' seek It.'
"'Gimme the longitude an'.latitude,
niaam,' I says, 'an' I'll go out.'
'"Look in the shlppin' news in the
papers tomorrower,' she pipes up.
'Five dollars, please.'"
"You didn't give her five dollars,
did you?" gasped Captain Scraggs.
"Why, Gib, my dear boy, I thought
you was sober."
"So I was."
"Then, Gib, all I got to say Is that
you're a sucker. You want to consult
the rest of us before you go throwin'
away the funds o' the syndicate on
such tom;fool Idees as—"
McGufTey saw a storm gathering on
Mr. Gibney's brows, and hastened to
Intervene.
"Meetln's adjourned," he announced,
"pendin' the issue o' the papers to-
morrow mornln'. Scraggsy, you
oughter J'lne the Band o' Hope.
You're ugly when you got a drink In
you."
Neils Halvorsen Interfered to beg
a cigar of Mr. Glbney and the affair
passed over.
At six o'clock the following morn-
ing the numbers of the syndicate were
awakened by a prodiglotls pounding
"Meetin" o* the Maggie Syndicate in
My Room," He Bawled. "I've Found
Our Fortune."
at their respective doors. Answering
the summons, they found Mr. Gibney
In undress uniform and the morning
paper clutched In his hand.
"Meetln' o' the Maggie syndicate In
my room," he bawled. "I've found
our fortune."
The meeting came to order without
the formality of dressing, and the
commodore, spreading the paper on
his knee, read aloud:
"FOR SALBeCIIEAP
The stern-wheel steamer Victor,
well found, staunch and newly painted.
Boilers and engines In excellent shape.
Vessel must be sold to close out an
estate. Address John Coakley, Jack-
son Street wharf."
"How d'ye know she's a fortune,
Gib?" McGuffey demanded. "Lemme
look at her engines before you get
excited."
"I ain't saying she Is," Mr. Gibney
retorted testily. "Lemme finish read
In' r He continued:
"REPORTS PASSING DERELICT
"The steam schooner Arethusa,
Grays Harbor to Oakland Long wharf,
reports passing a derelict schooner
twenty miles off Point Reyes at six
o'clock last night. The derelict was
down by the head, and her rail just
showed above the water. It was im-
possible to learn her Identity.
"The presence of this derelict In
the steamer lanes to North Pacific
ports is a distinct menace to naviga-
tion. and It Is probable that a revenue
cutter will be dispatched today to
search for the derelict and either tow
her Into port or destroy her."
"Gentlemen o' the syndicate, them's
the only two Items In the shippln'
page that looks likely. The question
is. In which lies our fortune?"
Nells Halvorsen spoke up. giving It
as his opinion that the fortune-teillns
lady probably knew her business and
i>iat their fortune really lay at sea.
Tne derelict was at sea. How else,
then, could the prophecy be Inter-
preted?
"Well, this steamer Victor Isn't ex-
actly traveling overland," McGuffey
suggested. He had a secret hankering
to mess around some real engine*
again, and gave It as his opinion that
fortune was more likely to lurk In a
solid stern-wheel steamer with good
engines and hollers than In a battered
hulk nt sea. Captain Scraggs agreed
with him most heartily and a tie vote
resulted. Mr. Gibney Inclining toward
the derelict.
"What're we goin' to do abont it,
Gib?" Captain Scraggs demanded.
"Wlten In doubt, Scraggsy, old tar-
pot, always play trumps. In order to
make no mistake, right after break-
fast you an' McGuffey go down to
Jackson street wharf an' Interview
this man Coakley abont his steamer
Victor. You been goin' to sen long
enough to know a good hull when yon
ae* It, an' If we can't trust Mac to
know a good set of Inner works we'd
better dissolve the syndicate. As for
me an' Nells, we'll go down to the
Front an' charter a tug an' chase out
after that there derelict before tne
revenue cutter gets her an' blows her
out o' the path o' commerce with a
stick o' dynamite "
Forthwith Mr. Gibney and Neils,
after snatching a hasty breakfast, de-
parted for the waterfront, where they
chartered a tug for three days and
put to Hea. At about ten o'clock Cap-
tain Scraggs and McGuffey strolled
leisurely down to Jackson street wharf
to Inspect the Victor. By noon they
had completed a most satisfactory in-
spection of the steamer's hull and
boilers, and bought her In for seven
thousand dollars. Captain Scraggs
was delighted. He said she was worth
ten thousand. Already he had de-
cided that heavy and profitable
freights awaited the syndicate along
the Sacramento river, where the fann-
ers and orchardlsts had been for
years the victims of a monopoly and
a gentlemen's agreement between the
two steamboat lines that plied be-
tween Sacramento, Stockton and San
Francisco.
On the afternoon of the third day
Mr. Glbney and Nells Halvorsen re-
turned from sea. They were unutter-
ably weary and hollow-eyed for lack
of sleen.
"Well, I suppose you two suckers
found that derelict," challenged Mc-
Guffey.
"Yep. Found her an' got a line
aboard an' towed her in, an' it was
a tough Job- She's layin* over on the
BerUeJey tide flats, an' at lowtlde to-
morrow we'll go over an' find out
what we've got. Don't even know her
name yet. She's practically sub
merged."
"I think you was awful foolish, Gib,
huyln' a pig in a poke that way. I
don't believe In goin' In blind. Me
an' Mac's bought a real ship. We
own the Victor."
"I'm dead on my feet," growled the
commodore, and jumping into bed he
refused to discuss the matter further
and was sound asleep In a Jiffy.
Mr. Gibney was up bright and early
and aroused the syndicate to action.
The tide would be at Its lowest ebb
at nine thirty-one and the commodore
figured that his fortune would be ly-
ing well exposed on the Berkeley tide
flats. He engaged a diver and a small
gasoline launch, and after an early
breakfast In a chophouse on the Em-
barradero they started for the wreck.
They were within half a mile of It,
heading right Into the eye of the wind,
when Captain Scraggs and McGuffey
stood erect In the launch simultaneous-
ly and sniffed like a pair of—well,
sea dogs.
"Dead whale," suggested McGuffey.
"I hope It ain't Gib's fortune," re-
plied Scraggs drily.
Shut up," bellowed Mr. Gibney. He
was sniffing himself by this time, for
as the launch swiftly approached the
derelict the unpleasant odor became
more pronounced.
"Betcher that schooner was in col-
lision with a steamer," Captain
Scraggs announced. "She was cut
down right through the fo'castle with
the watch below sound asleep, an'
this here fragrance appeals to me as
a sure sign of a Job for the coroner."
Mr. Gibney's eyes flashed, but he
made no reply. They had rounded the
schooner's stern now, and her name
was visible.
"Schooner Kadiak. Seattle." read
8craggs. "Little old three sticker a
thousand years old an' cut clear
through Just abaft the foremast. Mc-
Guffey, you don't s'pose this here's a
pirate craft an' Just bulgin' with gold."
"Sure." retorted the engineer with
a slow wink, "tainted wealih."
Mr. Gibney could stand their hack-
ling no longer. "Looky here, you two,"
he bawled out angrily. "I got a hunch
I picked up a lemon, but I'm a-willln'
to tackle the deal with Neils if you
two think I didn't do right by the
syndicate a-runnin* up a bill of ex-
pense towin' this craft into port. I
ain't goin' to stand for no kiddin',
even if we are in a five-hnndred-doilar
towage bill. Man Is human an' bound
to make mistakes."
"Don't kid the commodore. Scraggsy.
This aromer o' roses is more'n a
strong man can stand, so cut out the
josh."

WIG TOO SMALL FOR FRANKLIN
Representative From the New Amer-
ica Had to Appear Before French
King in Bald Pate.
Benjamin Franklin was about to be
presented to the French king on the
occasion of bis first visit to France In
the capacity of representative from
the new America. The court custom
of the time demanded that one going
to an audience with the kins must
wear a wig of the proper fashion. A
count, who had Franklin in tow. sent
a wigmaker the day before to take
Franklin's measure and fit him out
for the audience. The wlgmaker ar-
rived at Franklin's lodgings, measured
the poll of the great American fore
and aft and around and about and
took his departure. An hour before
the audience the wlgmaker returned
with the wig. But when Franklin at-
tempted to put It on It would not
fit; he couldn't begin to get It on his
head. "Sir." said Franklin to the
wlgmaker, "your wig is unfortunately
too small for my head."
"Fardonnei mot, monsieur," replied
the wlgmaker, "your head Is vastly too
large anil quite beyond the fashlou of
the court."
Franklin appeared, therefore, at
court with his bald pate and shaggy
gray hair.—Detroit Free Press.
