I told him I wanted to buy a Diank et. MMe sald he was too busy and to come later. As I walked past the donkey engine room I noticed that the en gine was going, It was turning « pump out of which a big stream of bilge water was tseuing, The water flooded the deck and ran out of the) scuppers as the ship lasted to lee-| ward. FINDS FRIEND OF JACK LONDON I asked the donkey-engine man what he was doing, He was built Uke an ox and had @ sort of bovine good nature about him. He had been @ friend of Jack London's and had helped Jack build the Snark. One of his priceless possessions waa an auto- graphed copy of the “Sea Wolf. Me told me he was pumping out leakage from the ship's bottom. “A wooden ship ain't no good un- til she begins to leak,” he remarked as I showed surprine, Every watch, night and Gay, for the whole trip he had to start the donkey engine and pump the bark out. WATCH AND WATER STOLEN I went back to the slop-chest and| persuaded Hector to sell me a bian ket. I paid $4 for it It was some! better than the one I had bought from Meyer, but it was very thin. When I went down to my bunk I remembered I had carelessly left my watch under my pillow, I looked there and found it was gone. Worse sti, my precious bottles of water had also been stolen in my absence. My new bed in the small boat was much better, The soot from the smoke stack of our Chinese galley blackened everything about me, in- cluding myself, and every in @ while an ambitious wave’ would spray me, but I covered my bunk with a piece of old canvas and was very snug. The fresh alr wag tonic and I felt much better. CAUGHT BY FAIR WIND For four days we tig-sagged across the Pacific, trying to gain headway Against the norwester. Finally a fair wind caught us and for two days we held our course, making a good eight knota, Then suddenly we ran into a dead calm. The bark, with all salle up, rolled on big greasy swells as help leas an & cork. ‘The deep indigo of the ocean stretched infinitely aii about us. Gooncy birds had taken the place of the seaguils and were flapping foolishly for what refuse they could snatch They were ally black crea- tures, which seemed to come from nowhere by the thousands. We were “a painted ship upon « painted ocean.” TOSS COINS TO BRING LUCK For two days we moved not « yard forward. Capt. Joo clattered back and forth in his wooden shoes angrily. Finally in desperation he started to fling coins overboard to Propitiate the gods into letting loose the chained winds. But it was use jess. Tt was fatrly warm and the decks were alive with men. Even several of the Chinamen came up from their dark corner and slopped about in their cloth slippern Woe ie our meals in the open, using the covered pig pen for a table. I tried to wash out my biack towel In salt water, but only made it blacker. MEALS WORSE, FOOD TURNS BLACK The meals were getting worse, The cabbage which had helped to make several of the meals edible, was turning black and had to be abandoned. ‘We had started with bakers’ bread, but the dampness had started to turn it mouldy and we could not eat tt. One day we had been given fried bacon and bafled potatoes for break- fast, a treat we were allowed once a week, Most of the time our meals were composed of pota . beans or rice with “salt horse,” a cheap type of corn beef which most of the time was as inedible as had been the tough stew of our first meal. One time we had been given tripe, but it was so tough and etrong that it went overboard to the gooney/ birds, MEANT GOOD STORE TRADE All this meant, of course, good business for the Mexican store and | the Chinaman. We were given no fruit, but we could buy canned) pears, peaches and pineapples for 60c | a can. We never saw an egg in our meals, | but we could buy eggs at Bo a piece. | Small oranges could be had at either | store for 60c a dozen and apples at | MINISTER GETS OUT OF PRISON California Man \s Paroled After Seven Years SAN QUENTIN PENITENTIARY, .
