Miss llrevvster loohcd up languidly
from lier book during the first jinrtot
this rccltnl. Then she sprang sudden-
ly to lier foot and threw the book on tlio
deck.
"Who li It thnt vvill tnhe the tele-
grams?" slic asked the steward.
"The mntc miss. There he in stand-
ing yonder miss."
She niiulc her vvny quickly to that
official.
"Will you take n cable dispatch to be
Kent to New York?"
"Yes miss. Is it u. long one?" he
awked.
i "Yes it is a very long one."
"Well iniss" was tlie nnsvver "y
liocn't linicli time to write it. We
lenvc now in a few minutes."
"It is all written out; 1 hac only to
add a few words to it" Miss llrevvster
nl once Hew to her stateroom. The
telegram about the mine was hoon lie-
fore her with the- words counted and
he silver and gold that were to pay for
it piled on the tabic. She resolved to
run no risk of delay by having th"
message sent "to collect." Then she
dashed off as quickly as she could n.
brief and very graphic account of th
disaster which had overtaken the
Caloric. If tills accoiuit was hlightiy
exaggerated. Miss Ilrcwwstcr had no
time to tone it down. Picturesque and
dramatic description was what she
aimed at. Iter pen flew over the paper
with great rapidity and hlu looked up
tvery now and then through her state-
room window to see ilungii? fulni the
ropes tlie boat that vv us to make the at-
tempt to reacli the Irish coast. As nlif
could thusfccc how the preparations for
the departme were going forward siu
lingered longer than she might other-
wise liav o done and added line after line
1o the dispatch which told of the dis-
ustcr. At lust she saw the men take
their places in the long boat. She
hurriedly counted the words in the new
disjiatch she had vviitten and quickly
frcm her purso plied the gold that was
nece.ssary-to pay for their transmission.
Then she sealed tiie two dispatches in
nil envelope pqfc tlie two piles of gold
Into one after rap'dly counting them
iignln cast u quick look up at the still
"Stand Btlda; I have no time to talk with you."
motionless boat grasped the gold in one
hand the envelope in the other an 1
sprang to her feet but as she did so she
gave a shriek and took a step back-
ward. Standing with her back to the door
was Hditli Longvvorth. When she
had entered the stateroom Miss Urevvs-
tev did not know but her heart beat
wildly n.s she saw tho girl standing
silently there as if she. had .risen up
through the lloor.
"What are you doing here?" slio-de-niaudcd.
"i am lieie" Kiihl Miss Ixmgvvorth
"because I wish to talk with you."
"Stand aside; I have no time to talk
with you just now I told jou I didn't
want to sec you again. Stand aside I
tall you."
"1 shall not stand aside."
"What do you mean?"
"I menu that I shall not stand aside."
"Then I shall ring the br and have
j on thrust out of here for your impu-
dence." "You shall not ring tho bell" said
IVilth calmly putting her hand over the
white china arrangement that held in
its center the black electric button.
"Do i ou mean to tell me that you in-
tend to keep me from leaving my own
Kl.itcroom?"
"I mean to tell you exactly that."
"Do jou know that you can be im-
prisoned for attempting such a thing?"
"I don't care."
"Stand aside jou vixen or I will
strike you."
"Do it."
For a moment the two girls stood
there the one flushed and excited the
other apparently calm with her back
against tlie door and her hand over the
electric button. A glance through the
window showed Miss Brewster that the
mate had got into tbu boat and that
they were steadily lowering away.
"Let me pass you you wretch I"
"All In good time" replied Kdith
Tongworth whose gaze was also upon
the boat swinging in midair. Jenny
Ilrcwster saw at once that if it came
to a hand-to-hand encounter she would
huve no chance whatever against the
Knglish girl who was in every way her
physical superior. She had her en-
velope in one hand and the gold in tho
other. She thrust both of them into
her pocket which after some fumbling
she found. Then she raised her voice
in ono of the most appalling screums
VMth Longvvorth had ever hcuid. As
if innuswertothatcar-piercingscreani
there nroso from thestenmer a loud
iind ringing cheer. Both glanced up
to see where tho boat was but it was
jiot in sight. Several ropes were dang-
ling down past the portholes. Miss
"firewater sprang up on the sofa and
with her small hands turned round
ilia screw which held the deadlight
closed.
Judith Longvvorth looked at her w ith-
out making tiny uttempt to pi event the
unfastening of the vv iudow.
.Tcnnlo Brewster flung open the heavy
brass circle which held the thick green
glass and again she screamed at the top
of lier voice crying "Help!" and "Mur-
der!" The other did not move from her po-
sition. In the silence that followed
fiio steady splash of ours could bo
v-i i
htnrd mid again n rousing cheer rang
out from those who were left upon tin'
motionless steamer. Edith Ixmgworth
raised herself on tiptoe ami looked out
of the open window. On the crest of
n vvave 500 yards aw nv from thcvuswl
she saw the boat for n moment appear
showing the white glitter of her sl
dripping oars; then it vanished down
tho other side of the wave Into the
tiotigh of the sea.
"Xovv Miss Brewster jou are at lib-
frty to go."
CHAITEU X.
After Kclitli Longvvorth left lur
Jennie UicwstiT indulged in n brief
spasm of hysterics. Her good sense
however speedily got her out of that
and as she became more or Ioh calm
she began to wonder why she had not
n-Miulted the'girl who had dared to im-
prison her. She dimly remembered
that she thought of a fierce onslaught
at the time and she also remembered
that the fear of the boat leaving during
tht low had stnjcd her hand. But now
that the boat had left she bitterly re-
gretted her inaction nnd grieved un-
availing' over tho fact that she hail
stopped to wiitc the account of the ills-
ut.lcr which befell tho Calorie. Had she
not done so nil might have been well
but lier great ambition to be counted
the best newspaper woman in New
ork and to show the editor that she
was equal to nnj'cinergencj that might
arise had undone her. While it would
have been possible for her to scud nvvuj
one telegram her desire to write the
second had resulted In her sending none
tit nil. Although she impugned her
own conduct in language that one
would not have expected to have hoard
fioin the lipsof u daughter of a million-
aii c lier anger against Kdith Long-
vvorth became more intense nnd n
fleice desire to have revenge took pos
sesion of tlie fair correspondent. She
lesolved that she would go up on deck
and shame this woman lie fore everj-
bodj. She would attract public attcn-
tfon to Jhe affair by tearing I'dltli
Longvvorth from Jier deck chair and
In her present state of mind Rhe had
mi doubt she had the strength to do it.
With tlie yearning for revenge fleice
and stioug upon lier tlie newspaper
woman put on her hat and departed for
the deck. Like an emaged tigress she
passed up one side and down the other
but her would-be victim was not vis-
ible. The rage of Miss Brewster in-
ci cased when ln; found her piej' was
not where she. expected. She had n
fear that when she calmed down her
iivv n good sense would assert itself mid
her levenge would be lost. In coini;
to and fio along the deck she met Ken-
jon and Fleming walking together.
Fleming had just that momcntconieup
to ICcnjon who vvns moodily pacing
the deck alone nnd slapping him on
the shoulder asked him to linve a
drink.
"It seems tome" lie said "that. I never
have had the pleasure of offering you
a drink since we came on board the ship.
I want to drink with everybody who is
here and cseciailj' now when some-
thing has happened to make it worth
while."
"I mn ' cry much obliged to you" aid
John Kenjon coldlj- "butl never drink
with unyhody."
"What never touch itatall? Xotevcn
nlc?"
"Not even ale."
"Well I nm astonished to hear that.
I thought everj- Englishman drank ale."
"There is at least one Englishman
vv ho docs not."
"All right then no harm done and
no offense given I hope. I maj' my
however that you miss a lot of fun in
tins vvoild."
' 1 piesume I miss a few headaches
also."
'"Oh not necessarily. I have one great
recipe for not hnv ing n headache. You
Ret this Is tlie philosophy of head
aches" and then much to John's cha-
grin he linked arms with him and
changed His step to suitlvenyon'b talk-
ing all the limp ns if they were the most
intimate friends in the wrold.
"I have a sure plan for avoiding u
headache. You see when you look into
tlie mutter it is this wnj'. The head-
ache only comes when you are sober.
Very well then. It is ns simple ns A 1J
C. Never get solicr; that's the waj-1
do. I simplj'keeponandiievergot sober
so I have no headaches. If people who
drink would avoid the disagreeable
necessity of ever getting sober thry
would be all right. Don't j'ou see what
I mean?"
"And how about their brains in the
mean time?"
"Oil their brains arc all right. Oood
liquor sliarjKjns a man's brains wonder-
fullj'. Xovv j-oii trj'itsomc time. Let
me have them mix n cocktail for jou. I
tell j'ou John a cocktail is one of the
finest drinks Unit ever was made nnd
tli is man ut the bar when 1 came on
bom d he thought he could make a cock-
tail but he didn't know even the rudi-
ments. I have taught him how to do
it mid I tell j'ou that secret vill he
vv nrtli a fortune to him because if there
Is anything Americans like it is to have
their cocktails mixed correctly. There's
no one man in all England can do it
and verj few men on the Atlantic serv-
ice. But I'm graduallj' educating thein.
Been across six times. They pretend to
giv j'ou American drinks over in Eng-
land but j'ou must know how disap-
Kiinting t hey inc."
"I'm sure I don't sec how I should
l'novv for I never taste mij' of them."
"Ah true; I had forgot ten that. Well
I took this barkeeper here in hand and
lie know s now how to make a reasonably
good cocktail; and as I say that secret
will be worth monej' to him from Amer-
ican passengers."
John Kenj'on was revolving in his
mind the problem of how to get rid of
this loquacious and generou. Individual
when he saw sailing down upon them
the irate figure of Miss JcnnieBrewster
and he wondered what was the cause of
the look of bitter iudlgnation flashing
from her ej es. He thought that she in-
tended to address the American poli-
tician but he was mistaken. She came
directly at him and with her fist
clenched said in a loud voice:
"Well John Kenyon what do you
think of your work ?"
"What work?" asked the bewildered
n;au.
"You know very well what work I
mean. A fine specimen of a man you
are! Without the courage yourself to
prevent mj' bending that telegram you
induced your dupe to come down to my
stateroom and brnzenlj' keep inc from
bending It."
The look of utter astonishment that
came upon the face of honest John Ken-
yon would have convinced any woman
in her senses that he knew nothing at
nil of what she was speaking. A dim
idea of this Indeed flashed across the
young woman's heated brain. But be-
fore she could speak Fleming raid:
"Tut tut my dear girl jou an- talk-
ing too loud altogether. Do yon want
to nttract the attention of everybody
on he deck? You nmstn't ninUc a
scandal In this way on boa id ship."
"Scandal I" she cried. "Wo will soon
see whether there will be a scandal or
not. Attrnct the attention of those on
deck I That is exactly w hat I am going
to do until I show up the v iliainy of this
man jou nrc talking to. lie vvns the
concoctor of it mid he knows it. She
never had brains enough to think of It.
He was too much of a coward tocarrj' it
out himself and so he set her to do Ids
dastnrdlj piece of work."
"Well well" said Fleming "even if
lie has done nil that whatever it is it
will do no good to attract the attention
to it here on deck. See how everybody
Is listening to what vou are saying. Mj'
.1 1-1 .... 4-11. !..
dear girl you arc too angry to talk just
now ; the best thing j ou can do is to go
to j our stateroom."
"You shut your silly mouth will
you?" she cried turning furiously upon
him. "I'll thank you tomliul yourovvn
business and let me attend to mine. 1
should have thought that you would
have found out before this that I um ca-
pable of attending to my own affairs."
"Cei tnluly certainly my dear girl"
misvvcied tlie politician soothingly.
"I'm sorrj' 1 can't tell you all to come
mid have a drink with mmind talk the
inn tier over quietly. That's the correct
wny to do things. Xot to stand here
screeching on the deck w ith ev-ry budy
listening. Xovv if you will quietly dis-
cuss tlieiunttcrwltli John here I'm sure
everything will be all right."
"You don't know what vou are talk
ing about" replied the young lady. "Do
jou know that 1 had an important dis-
jiatch to send to the Argus and that
tliis man's friend doubtless nt his in-
stigntion came into mj' room nnd prae-
ticullj' held me prisoner there until the
boat had left so that 1 could not send
the dispatch? Think' of the cheek and
viliainj of that and speuk to me of talk-
ing wildly!"
A look of relief and astonishment
came into Kenjon's face that quite con-
vinced tlie newspaper woman more
than all his protestations would have
done that he knew nothing of the es-
capade whatever.
"And who kept you from coming
out?" asked Fleming.
"It is none of your business" she re-
plied tartly.
"If you vv ill believe me" said Kenyon
nt last "I knew nothing whatever of all
this so you see there is no use speaking
to me about it. I won't pretend I um
sorrj  because I am not."
This added fuel to tL ; (lame and she
was about to blac outaguin when Ken-
yon tinned on his heel mid left her and
Fleming standing facing each other.
Then the young woman herself turned
anil quickly depai ted leaving the aston-
ished politician cntiicly alone so that
there was nothing for him to do but to
go into tho smoking-room anil ask
somebody to have a drink with him
which he promptly did.
Miss Brewster made her waj' to the
captain's room and rapped at the door.
On being told to enter she found that
officer seated at his table with some
charts befoio him and a haggaid lool.
upon his face which might have
warned her that this was not tlie proper
time to air any personal grievances.
"Weil?" he said briefly as sli
entered.
"I came to see you. captain" she be-
gan "because an outrageous thing lias
been done ou honid tlirs ship nnd I dc
sire reputation what is moie 1 will
have It!"
"What is the 'outrageous tiling?"
asked the captain.
"I had some dispatches to snd to
Xew York to the Xew York Argus on
whose staff I am."
"Yes." said tlie captain with Intel est;
"dispatches relating to what has hap
pened to tlie ship?"
"One of them did the other did not.'
"Well 1 hope." said the captain "you
have not given mi exaggerated account
of the condition we arc in."
"I havegiven uoaeeouutatallsimply
because I was pi evented from sending
the cnbh'ginm.s."
" Mi Indeed" said the captain a
look of lellef coming over Ids face in
spite of ins efforts to conceal it. "nuq
pray what prevented you from sending
your cablegrams? The mate would
have taken any messages that were
given to him."
"I know that." cried the young
woman; "and when I was in mj' room
writing the Inst of tlie dispatches a
person who is on board as a passenger
htTL Miss Longvvorth came into my
loom and held me prisoner there until
tile boat had left the ship."
Tlie captain arched his eyebrows in
astonishment.
"My dear madam" he said "you
moke' n cry set ious charge. Miss Long-
worth hns crossed several times with
me and 1 nm bound to suy that a more
well-behaved joung lady I never had
on hoard nry ship."
"Extremely well-behaved she is!"
cried the correspondent nngrilj'. "She
stood against mj' door mid prevented
me from going out. I screnmed for
help but mj scrcaniH were drowned in
tlie cheers of the passengers when tlie
boat left."
"Why did j'ou not ring your bell?"
"I couldn't ring my bell because she
prevented me. Besides if I had reached
the bell It is not likely anybody would
luivo answered It; everybody seemed
to be gawking after the lxat that vvua
leaving."
"You can hardly blame them for that.
A great deal dejicnda on the safety of
that boat. In fact if you come to
think about it. you will sec that what-
ever grievance j'ou maj have itis after
nil a very trivial one compared to the
burden that weighs on me just now
and I cry much prefer not. to have any-
thing to do with disputes between the
passengers until we are out of our pres-
ent predicament."
"The predicament has nothing what-
ever to do with it. I tell you a fact. I
tell you that one of your passengers
came and imprisoned me in my state
room. I como to you for redress. Now
there must be some law on shipboard
that takes the place of ordinary law on
land 1 make this demand officially to
you. If you refuse to hear me and re-
fuse to redress my wrong then I have a
large republic to which 1 can appeal
through my paper and perhaps there
will also lie a chance of obtaining just-
ice through the law of tlie lund tow nlch
I nm going."

A COUNTERFEITER CAUGHT.
Tlie Police of Syracuse Mul.e nit tin-
lMirlnut Capture.
On Monday the 15th Harold Marquiscc of
Uticn N. Y was nrrcstcd in Syracuse N.
Y. ou a warrant swoin out by the Dr. Wil-
liams' Medicine Co. rlinrginghmi with forg-
ery. On the 15th of December Muicnusco
visited a pilot o enginvcr in Syracuse say-
ing he was the leprcscntativo of tlie Dr.
W'lliiams' Medicine Co.nnd arranged for the
making of n full set of pintcs for the direc-
tion sheets labels etc. of the fnmous Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. News
of this reached the home oflice nnd no lime
was lost in arranging for his iiriest when he
should return for tlie pintcs. He returned
cu the 15th nnd vvns accordingly nrrcstcd
and is now in jail in Syracuse awniting ex-
amination which oicurs on March 2d.
Thin arrest moves to he un important

the police alco found counterfeit coin both
in the trunk nnd on his person; nnd in a
search of his npartments in I'tica found a
complete outfit for counterfeiting consist-
ing of crucibles bellows nickel lend
bismuth antimony n small blacksmith
forge n charcoal furnace and several pins-tcr-of-paris
molds. The United States mar-
shals want him jutt as soon ns Dr. Williams'
Medicine Co. arc througli with him and no
doubt ho vv ill be sentenced for n iong pe-
riod. In selecting Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for
his counterfeiting operations he showed his
knowledge of the proprietary medicine busi-
ness; for these pills are in such great demand
that they are easily sold nt any ding store in
the United States. His scheme was tovvnrk
tlie country druggists and cell his imita-
tions at a discount of from2percent.to5per
cent. explaining the reduced price by the
fact that he had picked them up in small
jots nnd nt a discount from dealers who were
overstocked. Hy working fast and making
long jumps he would have secured many
hundreds of dollars in a short time. Tlie
proprietors of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are
most fortunate to have caught tlie rogue be-
fore be had fairlv started nnd to have thu
kept these spurious goods out of the market.
