Urbanely he desired to bave the honor of being acfuainted with their names. Lord Jullan, sick with horror of the spectacle he had just witnessed, ecmmanded himeelf with difficulty to supply them. Then haughtily he de- manded to know in his turn the name of their aggressor. *I am Don Miguel de Espinosa,” he 18 answered. *1 offer you no violence. On the contrary, 1 have saved your lives.” Don Miguel's smile persisted. “Meanwhile it is your lives that will cost you dear. rich man; and you, milord, ase no doubt alse rich. I will consider and fix your ransom." ’ CHAPTER XIX. The Meeting. The Milagrosa, with her consort, the Hidalga rolling after her, ran straight into the arms of Captain Blood. 'That happened early on the fcliowing morning. Don Miguel came upon the Arabella at a time when, separated from the Test of the fleet, she was alone and at a disadvantage. Miss Bishop, newly risen, had come out to take the air on the quarter- ‘deck with his lordship in attendance <'whén she beheld the big red ship that had dace been the Cinco ‘Llagas out “of Cadiz. The vessel was bearing down ‘upon them, the long pennon ivith the cross of St. George fluttering from her main truck in the morning ‘breeze. ~ They advanced to the poop-rail, and watched the bustle. ~Telescope in hand on the quarter-deck, Doo Miguel was jssuing his orders and signaling to his consort, in response to which the Hidalga had drawn steddily forward until she was now lbflm‘ of the Mila- 088 The Arabella was advancing now along a course which, If continued, must carry her straight between the two Spanigh ships. The Admiral raised his hand; in the waist, below him, a trurapet blared, and immediately the gunner on the prod touched 6ff his guns. As the thunder of them rotled out, "his lord- ship saw ahegd beyond the English ship and to larboard of her two heavy splashes. Almoést at once two suc- ceasive spurts of flame leaped from the brass cannon on the Arabella's's beak-head, dnd scarcely had the watchers on the poop seen the shower of spray, whero one of - the shots struck the water near them, than with o repding crash and a shiver that shook the Milagrosa from stem to stern, the other came to lodge In her forecastle. To avenge that blow, the with both her forward guns. But Hidalga blazed at the Englishman, even at that short = range—between two and three hundred yards—neither shot took effect. - At a hundred yards the Arabella’s forward guns, which had meanwhile WASH KIDNEYS IF THEY HURT Take Salts to flush Kidneys if Back pains or Bladder hothers Flush your kidneys with salts, oc- easionally, says a noted authority, who telis us that too much meat and rich food may form uric aeid, which almost paralyzes the kidneys in their efforts to expel it from the blood.

A moment they stood looking into each other's eyes. “WE MEET AGAIN AT LAST.” HE SAID. “I HOPE YOU sARE SATISFIED."” now upon the Enghshman, the Mila- grosa and her consort would also be firing into each other. Too late he crdered his helmsman to put the til- ler hard over and swing the ship to larboard. At that very moment the Arabella seemed to explode as she swept by, Eighteen guns from each of her flanks emptied themselves at that point-blank range into the hulls of the two Spanish vessels, The Milagrosa staggered slowly ahead, a gaping rent in her bulwarks. Instead of holding to her course as Don Miguel had imagined that she would, the Arabella had gone ahout under cover of smoke, and sailing now in the same direction as the Mila- grosa, was converging sharply upon her across the wind. There was a rattle and clank of metal as a dozen grapnels fell, and tore and caught in the timbers of the Milagrosa, and the Spaniard was firmly gripped the tentacles of the English ship. « Beyond her and now well astern the vell of smoke was rent at last and the Hidalga was revealed in desperaté case.
