man, wearing an ancient palmiest
hat, ant smoking on the tiatrh main
lug, ami him Nella llalvorsen ail
dlVUMIMl.
“Ay# hane want to mm* Cap's
Scraggs." hr said.
Tlir tall ilark man sto***! erect an*1

“What ilo yon want?" hr aakril de
llhrrntrly, anil Ihrrr waa a subtle
menace In hla tonra. Aa fur N'rlla
llalvorarn, thlnklag only of tin* sur-
prise hr had In atari- far hla alii em-

"Ayr bant* want Job."
"Well, I'm Captain Hcraggs, and I
limrn'l any Jah far you (let off my
hunt and wnlt until you’re Invited be-
fore you rami- ahanrd airnln."
For nearly n minute Nell* llalvor-
ai-n atared open-mouthed nt the tpuri-
nua 4'm|ilnIn Scraggs, while slowly
there alfti-il through hla brain the na-
tion that hr hud hiippened across tlir
trark of n deep and hland.v myatery
of the aeiia. There wna “aunietlilng

not he certain of until he had paved
the way far a complete Inventlgntlnn,
and aa a preliminary step toward
that end lie rllncln-d hla fist and
aprang swiftly toward tlu- bogua sklp-
per.
“Ayr tank you banc d —n liar," hr
mattered, and struek hainr, straight
and true, to the point of the Jaw.
The man went down, and In an In-
alant Nell* waa on top of him. Off |
came the Bailor'a belt, the hands of
the half-stunned man were quickly
tied behind him, and before l*e had
time to realise what hnd happened
Nells had rut a length of eon! from
a trailing halyard and tied Ills feet
aacuri-ly, nfter which he gagged him
securely with hla handanu handker-
chief.
A quirk circuit of the ship con-
vinced Nells llalvorsi-n thnt the re-
mainder of the dastard crew were
evidently ashore, so he descended to
the cabin In search of further evi-
dence of crime, lie wits quite pre-
pared to And Captain Scruggs’ mas-
ter's certificate In Its familiar oaken
frame, Imaging on the cabin wall, hut
lie was diimfoundetl to observe, hang-
ing on the wall In n similar and
equally familiar frame, the certificate
of Adelbcrt I\ Glbney ns first mate
of steam or sail, any ocean and any
tonnage. I ’.nt still a third framed
certificate hung on the wall, and Nells
again scratched bis bend when he
read the wording that set forth the
legal i|ualltlcutlons of Bartholomew |
McGuffey to hold down a Job as
chief engineer of Coastwise vessels
up to 1,200 tons net register.
It was potent, even to the dull- I
wltted Swede, thnt there had been
foul play somewhere, and the achoon- !
er’s log, lying open on the table,
seemed to offer the first means nt
hand for a solution of the mystery. '
Eagerly Nells turned to the last en-
try. It was not In Captain Scraggs'
handwriting, ami contained nothing
more Interesting than the stereotyped ■
reports of dally observations, cur- |
rents, weather conditions, etc., In-
cluding a notation of arrival that day
nt Honolulu. Slowly llnlvoraen
turned the leaves backward, until nt 1
last he was rewarded by a glimpse of |
a different handwriting. It was the
last entry under thnt particular hand-
writing, and road us follows:
“June 21, IS—. Took an observation at
noon, am) fln-1 that we are In 4* S .
lTS-t W. At this rate should lift Trnana-
tholo early this afternoon. All hands
well and looking forward to the fun at
Tuvana. Pent a new flying Jib thla morn-
ing and had the king and Tabu Tabu
holystone the dei k. A. I*. G1HNET.”
Nells llulvoraen sat down to think,
and after several minutes of this un-
usual exercise It appeared to the
Swede thnt he bad stumbled upon n
c'ho to the situation. The last entry
In the log kept by Mr. Glbney was
under date of June 21st—Just eleven
days ago. and on that date Mr. Glh-
ney hnd been looking forward to some
fun at Tuvana -tholo. Now where waa
thnt Island and what kind of a
place was It?
Nells searched through the rnhln
until he entne across the hook thnt Is
the hlble of every South sea trading
vessel—the British admiralty reports.
Down the Index went the old deck-
hand's calloused finger and paused at
"Friendly Islands—page 177;" where-
upon Nells opened the book at page
177 and nfter a five-minute search
discovered that Tuvana-tholo was a
barren, uninhabited Island In latitude
21-2 south, longitude 17S~4'.i west.
Ten days from thp Friendly Islands,
the paper said. That meant under
power and sail with the trades abaft
the beam. It would take nearer fif-
teen days for the run from Honolulu
to that desert Island, and Nells Hal-
verson wondered whether the ma-
rooned men would still he alive by
the time aid could reach them. For
by Minn- sixth Bailor sense Neils Hal-
vorsen liecnme cmvlnced that Ills old
friends of the vegetable trade were
marooned They had gone ashore for
some kind of a frolic, and the crew
had stolen the schooner and left them
to their fate, believing thnt Ihe cast-
aways would never la heard from
and that dead men tell no tales
lie rushed on deck, carried hla pris-
oner down Into the rnttii and locked
Ihe door on him. A minute Inter he
was clinging to the Jacob's ladder,
the canoe shot In to the side of the
vessel at Ids gruff command and
piis-e-l on shoreward without missing
a stroke of Ihe paddle. An luair
later, accompanied by three Kanaka
sailors picked up at random along the
water front. Nells llalvorsen was
pulled put to the Maggie II. Iler
crew had not returned and Ihe bogus
i-hpialti was still triced hard and fast
In the caldn.
The Swede did not bother to Inves-
tigate In detull the fo**d and water
supply. A hasty round of the acboon
er convinced him that she hud at
least a month's supply of f<ssl and
water. Only one thought surgisl
through Ills mind, and that was the
awful necessity for haste. The an-
chor came In with a rush, the Ka-
naka luiya chanting a tong that
Bounded to Nells like a funeral dirge,
and Nells went below and turned the
gasoline engines wide open. The
1 Maggie II swung around and with a
long streak of opalescent foam trail-
ing behind her swung down the bay
and failed nt last In the ghostly moon-
light beyond Diamond head; after
which Nells llalvorsen. with murder
In hla eye and a tarred rnpc’u end In
his horny fist, went down Into Ihe
cabin and talked to the man who
posed as Captain Scraggs. In (he end
lie gut a confession. Fifteen minutes
later he emerged, stnlllng grimly, gave
Ihe Kanaka boy at Ihe wheel the
course, and turned In to sleep the
sleep of the coiiaclenct-fre# mid the
wen ry.
Darkness was creeping over the
bench at Tuvana tholo before Mr.
Glbney could smother the despair In
his heart sufficient to spur his Jaded
Imagination to working order. For
nearly an hour the three castaways
had sat on (be bench In dumb horror,
gating seaward. They were not alone
In this, for u little further up the beach
the two FIJI Islanders sat huddled on
their haunches, gazing stupidly first
nt the horizon and then nt their white
captors. It was the sight of these
two worthies that spurred Mr. Glh-
ney's torpid brain to action.
"Didn't you say. Mac, that when we
left these two cannibals alone on this
Island that It would develop Into a
case of dog eat dog or snnu-thln' of
tliHt nnture?"
Captain Scraggs sprang to his feet,
his face white with a new terror.
However, he had endured so much
since embarking with Mr. Glbney on
a life of wild adventure that Ills

nerves had become rather Inured to
Impending death, and presently his
fear gave way to an overmastering
rage. He hurled his hat on the sands
and Jumped on It until It was a mere
shapeless mg.
“Let’s call a meetln’ of the Robin-
son Crusoe syndicate," said Mr. Gib-
ney.
"Second the motion." rumbled Me-
Guffey.
“Carried," said the commodore.
“The first business before the nn-etin’
is the organization of a expedition to
ehase these two cannibals to the
other end of the Island. I nln’t got
the heart to kill ’em, so let’s chase 'em
away before they get fresh with ns."
“Good Idea," responded McGuffey.
whereupon he picked up a rock and
threw It nt the king. Mr. Glbney fol-
lowed with two rocks. Captain
Scraggs screamed defiance at the en-
emy. and the enemy fled In wild ills-
srdi-r pursued by the syndicate. After
a chase <>f half a mile Mr. Glbney led
hla cohortii back to the b**arh.
“Let's build a fire -not that we
rieisl tt. hut Just for company—and
sleep till loomin'. Ity that time uiy
Imagination'll Iw In workln' order and
I'll s, lie me a br- ,ikfu»t out of tills
< but forsaken hole."
At the first hint of dawn Mr. Glb-
ney, true to hla promise, waa up and
scouting for breakfast. He found
some gooncya on a rocky crag and
killed half a doz.i n of ihi-tu with a
dull. On hla way back to camp he
dliw-ovrred a few luindfiila of aea salt
In a crevice between some ps-ks, and
Ihe syndicate .breakfasted an hour
later on nsist gismey. It waa oily and
fishy but an excellent substitute for
nothing at all. and the syndicate was
grateful. The breakfast would have
been cheerful, In fact, If Captain
Scraggs had not made repented P-f
cp-nri- to his excessive thirst. Me*
Guffey lost patience In-fore the meal
was over, and cuffed Captain Scraggs.
who thereupon subsided with teura in
his eyes. This hurt McGuffey. It was
like snlt In a fresh wound, so he put-
ted the skipper on the hark and
humbly naked hla pardon. Captain
Scraggs forgave him and murmured
something about death making them
all equal.
“'I ln- m-xt business before the syn-
dicate," announced Mr. Glbney, “la a
search of this Island for water."
Tlu-y searched all forenoon. At In-
tervals they caught glimpses of the
two cunnlbnls skulking In-hind sand
dunes, hut they found no water.
Toward the center of the Island, how-
ever, tin* soil was less barren, and
here a grove of coconut palms lifted
their tufted crests Invitingly.
"We will camp In this grove," snld
the eonimodop-, “and keep guard over
these green coconuts. There must he
m-Hrly a hundred of them and I no-
tice a little taro root here and there.
As those coconuts arc full of milk,
that Insures us life for a week or two
If we go on a short ration. By bnth-
In' several times a day we can keep
down our thirst some and perhaps
It'll rain."
"What If It does?" snapped Captnln
Scraggs bitterly. "We ain’t got noth-
in’ hut our hats to catch It in."
"Well, then, Hera way, old stlck-ln-
(lie mud," replied the commodore
quizzically, "It's a cinch you’ll go
thirsty. Your hat looks like a cul-
lender."
Captain Scraggs choked with rage,
mill Mr. Glbney, springing nt the near-
est palm, shinned to the top of It In
the most approved sailor fashion. A
moment later, Instead o* coconuts,
rich unctuous cuqscs began to de-
scend on McGuffey and Scraggs.
“Gib, my dear boy," Inquired
Scraggs, “whatever Is the matter of
you?"
"That hound Tabu-Tabu's been
strippln" our coconut grove." roared
the commodore. "He must have spent
half the night up In these trees."
"Thank the Lord they didn’t take
'em all," said McGuffey piously.
"Chuck me down a nut. Glh," said
Captain Scraggs. “Fin famished.”
In conformity with the commodore’s
plans, the castaways made camp In
the grove. For n week they subsist-
ed on gooneya, taro root, coconuts
and coconut milk, and a sea turtle
which Scraggs found wandering on
the beach. This suggested turtle
eggs to Mr. Glbney, mid a change of
diet resulted. Nevertheless, tla- un-
accustomed food, poorly cooked ns It
was, and the Inca of water, told cru-
elly on them, und their strength
failed rapidly.
At the end of n week, all hands were
troubled with Indigestion and McGuf-
fey developed a low fever. They had
lost much flesh and were a white, hag-
gard looking trio. On the afternoon
of the tenth day on the Island the sky
clouded up and Mr. McGuffey predict-
ed a willlwnw. Captain Scraggs In-
quired feebly If It hns good to eat.
That night It rained, ntul to the
grent Joy of the marooned mariners
Mr. Glbney discovered, In the center of
n big sandstone rock, a natural reser-
voir that held about ten gallons of wa-
ter. They drank to repletion and felt
their strength return a thousand-fold.
Tabu-Tabu and the king came Into
camp about this time, and pleaded for
a ration of water. Mr. Glbney, swear-
ing horribly at them, granted tlielr re-
quest, and the king. In his gratitude,
threw himself nt the commodore's feet
and kissed them. But Mr. Glbney was
not to he deceived, nnd after furnish-
ing them with a supply of water In
commit calabashes, he ordered them
to their own side of the island.
On the eighteenth day the Inst drop
of water was gone, and on the twenty-
second day the Inst of the coconuts
dIsa|q-eared. The prospects of more
rain were not bright. The gooneya were
becoming shy and distrustful and the
syndicate was exi»erienclng more and
more difficulty, not only In killing
them, but In eating them. McGuffey,
who hnd borne up uncomplainingly,
was slinking with fever and hardly
ible to stagger down the beach to look
for turtle eggs. The syndicate was
sick, weak and emaciated almost be-
yond recognition, and on the twenty
fifth day Captain Scraggs fainted
twice. On the twenty sixth day Mr-
Guffey crawled Into the shadow of a
•tunlcd Uilumwa bush and started to
pmy!
It was the finish. The commodore
knew It, and aat with bowed head In

There was a cotumotlou on iteeka, and
then to Mr. (iltiney a dying ears came
faintly the shouts and sings of the
black boys as a whaleboat shot Into
the breakers and pulled awIftly toward
the bench. Mr. Glbney dreamed that
a white man sat In the stem sheets of
this whalehuat, and a* the boat
tombed tlie beach It si-emed to Mr
Glbney that this man sprang ashore
nnd ran swiftly toward him. And—
Mr. Glbney twisted his suffering lips
Into a wry smile as lie realized the
oddities of thla mirage--It seemed to
him that 'Ids visionary white man
bore a striking resemblance to Neils
llalvorsen. Nells llalvorsen, of all
men! Old Nells, "the squarehead"
deckhand of the green [tea trade! Dull,
how legged Nclla, with hla lost dog
smile anil hi#—
Mr. Glbney rubbed his eyes feebly
and half staggered to his feet. What
was that? A shout? Without doubt
be had heard a sound that was not the
moaning of their remorseless prison-
keeper. the sen. And—
"Hands off," shrieked Mr. Glbney
a ml struck feebly at the Imaginary tig
ure rushing toward him. No u*e. lie
felt himself swept into strong anus
and curried an Immeasurable distance
down the bench. Then somebody
threw water In his fact* and pressed a
drink of brandy and sweet water to
his parched lips. Ills swimming senses
rallied a moment, and he discovered
thnt he wns lying In the bottom of a
whaleboat. McGuffey lay beside him,
and on a thwart In front of him sat
good old Nells llalvorsen with Captain
Scraggs' head on Ills knees. As Mr.
Glbney looktsl at this strange tableau
Captain Scraggs opened his eyes,
glanced up at Nells llalvorsen, nnd
spoke:
"Why If It nln’t old squarehead
Veils," he muttered wnnderlngly. “If
It ain't Nells, I’ll go to hades nr some
other seH|mrt." lie closed his eyes
lignin and subsided Into a sort of leth-
nrgy, for he wus content. He knew he
wns saved.
Mr. Glbney rolled over, nnd, strug-
gling to his knees, leaned over Mc-
Guffey and peered Into his drawn face.
"Mac, <vld shipmate! Mac, speak to
me. Are you alive?"
B. McGuffey, Esquire, opened a pnlr
of glazed eyes nnd stared nt the com-
modore.
"Did we lick 'em?" he whispered.
“The last I remember the king was
puttin' It all over Scraggs.v. And that
Tabu hoy—was—no slouch." McGuf-
fey paused, and glanced warily around
the boat, while n dawning horror ap-
peared In his sunken eyes. “Go back,
Nells—go hack—for God's sake.
There's two niggers—still—on the—
Island. Bring—'em some—water.
They're cannibals—Nells, but never-
mind. Get them—nhoard—the poor
devils—If they’re living. I—wouldn’t
leave a—crocodile on that—hell hole.
If I could—help It."
An hour Inter the Robinson Crusoe
syndicate, Including the man Friday
nnd the Gont, were safe aboard the
Maggie II, and Neils llalvorsen, with
the tenra streaming down his bronzed
checks, was sparingly doling out to
them a mixture of brandy nnd water.
And when the syndicate was strong
enough to be allowed all the wnter It
wanted, Neils llalvorsen propped them
up on deck and told the story. When
he had finished. Captain Scraggs
turned to Mr. Glbney.
"(Jib, my dear boy," he said, “make
n motion."
“I move," said the commodore, “that
we set Tabu-Tabu and the king down
on the first Inhabited Island we can
find. They've suffered enough. And I
further move thnt we readjust the
ownership of the Mnggie II syndicate
and cut the best Swede on earth in on
a quarter of the profits."
"Second the motion,” said McGuffey.
“Carried," snld Captain Scraggs.
“We got a quorum without him. aa'
besides this bualnraa la Just between
us three."
“MeetlnH com# to order" The
commodore tapped the hut deck with
hia bars heel twice. “Haul away,
Mac." *
“I move you. gentlemen, that It be
the sense o’ this meetln' that B. Mc-
Guffey, Esquire, be an' be la hereby

death on that there desert Island. iKi
I hear a second to that motion?"
"Seii-nd the motion," chirped Cap-
tain Scraggs.
“The motion's denied." announced
Mr. Glbney firmly.
“Now, lisiky here, Glh, that ain't
fair. Didn't you fight Tabu-Tabu an'
didn’t Scraggsy fight the king o' Kan-
davu? I ain't had no fight In' this en-

"Mae, It can't he done nohow."
"Oh, It can't, eh? Well, I'll Ju«t bet

CHAPTER XIV.
The lookout on the power schooner
Maggie II had sighted Diamond head
la-fore Commodore Adelbert P. Glbney,
Captain Phlnens P. Scraggs. and En-
gineer Bartholomew McGuffey were
enabled to declare, In nil sincerity (or
at least with ns much sincerity as one
might reasonably expect from this hand
of roving rascals), thnt they hnd en-
tirely recovered from their harrowing
experiences on the desert Island of Tu-
vana-tholo, In the Friendly group.
At the shout of "Lnnd, ho!” Mr. Mc-
Guffey yawned, stretched himself, nnd
sat up In the wicker lounging chair
where he hnd sprawled for days with
Mr. Glbney nnd Captain Scraggs, un-
der the awning on top of the house.
He flexed his bleeps reflectively, while
his companions, stretched at full
length In their respective chairs,
watched him lazily.
“As a member o’ the Mnggie syndi-
cate an’ ownin’ nn’ votin’ a quarter In-
terest." boomed the engineer, "I here
by call a meetln' o’ the snld syndicate
for the purpose o' transactin’ any an’
all business that may properly come
before the meetln’.”
"Pass the word for Nells Halvor
sen," suggested Mr. Glbney. “Bless
his squarehead xoul," he added.

go hack an' save ’em, an’ It took us
two days to heat up to the first in
hal-lted Island an’ drop ’em off—”
“But a cannibal’s like a dumb beast.
Glh. He ain't responsible. This mate
knows better."
‘Ah!” Mr. Glbney leveled a horny
forefinger nt the engineer. "That's
where you hit the nail on the head.
He’s too fly, and there's only two
way# to keep him from flyln’ away
with us. The first Is to feed him to
the sharks nnd the second Is to treat
him like n long-lost brother. I know
he ought to he hove overboard, but 1
ain't got the heart to kill him In cold
blood. Consequently, we got to let
the villain live, an’ If you go to heatin’
him up. Mac, you'll make him gore nn’
he’ll peach on us w hen we get to Hono-
lulu. If us three could get hack to San
Francisco with dean hands. I'd say
lick the beggar an’ lick him for fnir.
Bnt we got to remember thnt this mate
was one o’ the original filibuster crew
o’ the old Maggie I. The day we
tackled the Mexican navy an' took
this power schooner away from ’em,
we put ourselves forty fathom plumb
outside the law, an’ this mate was
present an' knows it. We’ve changed
the vessel's name an’ rig, an’ doctored
up the old Maggie’s papers to suit the
Maggie II, an’ we’ve give her a new-
dress. But nt that, It's hard to dis-
guise a ship in a live port, an' the sc
cret service agents o' the Mexican gov-
ernment may be a-layln' for us In San
Francisco; and with this here mate
agin us an’ ready to turn state’s evi-
dence, we're pirates under the law, an'
It don't take much imagination to see
three pirates swingin' from the same
yard-arm. No, sir, Mac. I ain’t got
no wish, now that we're fixed nice nn'
comfortable with the world’s goods, to
he hung for a pirate In the mere shank
o’ my youth. Why, I ain't fifty year
old yet.”

If
Fact That Is Well Known to Mariners
May Be News to Some of Ou.*
Readers.
A boy dropped a hall into a small
hole and could not get It out, so he
poured water Into the hole, thinking the
ball would float to the surface. As the
hall was slightly heavier than the wa-
ter It remained on the bottom. Then
the boy thought of mixing salt with the
water, since he knew salt water would
float heavier objects than fresh water
would. He tried this and was reward-
ed with the floating ball.
This particular fact Is demonstrated
at the mouths of rivers. Objects roll-
ing along the bottom of a river, too
heavy to come to the top, will rise
when carried out to sea. The rule nl*n
applies to boats. A ship with a cnrg-i
on the sea will sink sometimes a foot
or two on entering a fresh water port.
If she leaves the port with her cargo,
she will rise on entering the ocean.
For that reason a ship may be loaded
apparently too heavily at a pier and
still be all right on the waves.
In building a dam, the fact of salt
water's being heavier than fresh must
ba remembered.—Kansas City Star.
