G i o i -1 CAPTAIN A.E.DINGLE L/‘P. IN G 1924 b, BRENTANO'S INC_Af) @ TR SESLRVER. LEAS €D et BEGIN HERE TODAY Alden Drake, formerly a sailor, now grown soft and flabby through a lite of idle ease, visits Sallortown, where he moets— Joe Bunting, a seaman, with whom he drinks himself off ls foet in a barroom. Awakening next morning Drake hears «— Captain Stevens of the Orontes denounce him as a “dude.” Angry, Drake sncaks aboard the Orontes as one of the crew, but is recognized by Stevens and soundly trounced on two different occasions. Drake is put down on the ship's articles as Boy, thereby shaming him be- fore— Mary Manning, daughter of the owner, who is a passenger on the Orontes. Captaln Stevens develops into a wooer, but Mary appears not to realize that he is madly smitten with her. A shyness prevents him from speaking his love, however. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY ‘When the noon observation placed the ship within two days' eall of Table Bay, and preparations were afoot for coming into port Captain Stevens made arrangements for the entertainment of Mary during the stay! Bhe forgot her uneasiness, thawed towards him, sent him into the Seventh Heaven of delight with her eagerness. They sat at the sa- loon table, poring oven a Cape Town guide book, long after the midday dinner had been cleared away, The steward was making his inventory of stores ready for re-victualing; and Drake was helping him in the Jazaret beneath the saloon. “You can stop at a hotel, Mary, and have a high old time,” Stevens sald, looking steadfastly into her animated face. She glanced up at him with sharp reproof in her eyes, but he never #gaw that. He only saw the fair beauty of her, and it maddened him. He gathered her in his powerful arms as she half rose, and glued | his lips to hers, while his breath fssued hissingly from his nostrils in “Oh, would you dare!” she cried, half stifled. “You shall pay: Stevens laughed madly, and gmoth- ered her in a fieréer hug. “Help!" she cried, “Steward!" Loyal Tke clambered out of the hatch, wid d with fear. He could | not ignore that cry; neither could | he ignore the fact that the skipper HE COULD NOT IGNORE THE t HE MUST ATTAC he was not one half as sirong as | Buster Bear. Mr. Mugguns could tussel very pushed and pulled and tugged and | hugged an twisted and turned until | something went, “Rip!” and there stood Mr. Mugguns without th Buster Bear disguise. “Aha!

The stranger's volce sounded shocked. Drake laughed aloud. “Whatever for?" ce here, Mister,” cut in Stevens' volce harshly; “until 1 have some- thing better than your say-so to heave me out, I'm master o' this ship. Drake stowed away. He was allowed to sign on, instead of being hove overboard, Ship's boy, he fis You can call him Mister Drake, all you want, but he's ship's boy here, and he's In irons’ because I put him in. That's reason enough for any ship master,” “You won't improve matters by taking this tone, Captain,” the strange voice went on. “Here is my authority from Captain Manning. Here is a letter from Mr. Drake's lawyers, also one from Captaln Manning, which I may only deliver to Mr, Drake persopally in your presence. Will you kindly have him brought here?” Drake lay back and laughed until he ached, visualizing Jake Stevens’ face at that moment. - Then the hatch was lifted, 1ke crept down and unlocked the part of his frons which fastened him to a stanchion, and helped him to clamber into the raloon, still handcuffed, still smil- ng. “Mr. Drake, I scarcely expected to meet you like this” said a sol- emn-looking individual in decorous uttire, stepping forward and taking Drhake's hand with an expression of horror at the irons. Drake was en- joying it all hugely. He glanced at Mary; her blue eyes were wide with wonder. Stevens glared blackly at fhim over the top of a sheet of note- paper. The solemn man proceeded, holding out two envelopes: “Mr. Drake, I am Fielding, of Fielding and Pow acting on the instruc< tlons of your Jawyers at home in your behalf, Here are the japers concerning your purchase of the Orontes, Captain Stevens does not appear willing to believe that he has placed his owner in irons!” Mr. Tielding's tone and look as he ut- tered the words did complete jus- tice to the dignified old school to which he belonged. “If vou will be good enough to open and read those letters,” Drake In FACT THAT IT WAS THE SKIP- the foe he must attack.

He knew when seas diminished to gentle | he heard the weird cries of | men braces; later at| clewlines and buntlines. He heard the toot of a tughoat, then the syd- | lcn uprighting of the ship as the | salls were spilled finally and the | tug started to pull her in. He heard | the faint howling of the men furling the big courses | “We'll_haul — ah!-And furl— An' psy Paddy Doyle fer 'ls boots!"” | Drake only essed at hours or time.

Mr. Tielding adjusted his glasses higher up his thin nose. Two seamen en- tered the companionway and clump- ed down the stairs. One staggered under a heavy sea-chest, canvas covered, tasseled, and grommetted. The other shouldered a sea bag, full packed and padlocked. Mr. Adams | was heard bidding them be careful in a voice so charged with ama ment that Drake was forced again to laugh outright. “Hadn't you better release Mr. Drake?" Fielding suggested again with a troubled glance at Stevens to have te rcad a client’s corre- spondence in such circumstances.” “Captain Manning's letter to me tells me I'm to surrender com- mand,” Stevens gaid harshly. “Who the nominee of the Il be the man to “Then give me the ke Stevens,” laughed Drake, holding out his hands. “I have purchased the Or- ontes =0 that 1 may command her myself.” Drake paused. “On the whole, I think you had better unlock the irons, Captain Stevens, Since' you are master of the ship until a formal change is made at the Custom house,” he smiled. “There is no reason why there should be hard words or feel- ings. 1 shan't hold this ironing mat- ter against you, Perhaps you had excellent reason. I'm sure we shall continue the voyage in harmony, and you—" “What?"” yelled Stevens, fumbling with the handcuft key. “Me go on with you as master? I'd see your neck as long as my arm first! .
