But they feared to spenk, scarce dared to breathe fully, Were oblivious of the hazard of their own situation, terrible only fn the unusuai stillness of the sea. Now Burke was not tn the wrecked cabin for more than fivw minutes, the anxiety of the men waiting having led them to magnify the moments ridiculously; and when he came on deck again, Kenner, who stood in the prow of the lifeboat, could no longer restrain himself. “Burke!” he shouted, ‘for heaven's sake, speak! Have ye found anything?” To this shout of a question Burke gave no answer, but he beckoned them with his hand to come aboard; and Mes- cenger and Kenner, leaving the other two to hold the boat against the rush of the tide, sprang up to the deck and atood with him. The American was quivering with fear, but the Prince showed no emotion, though he said as he came to the broken booby-hatch: “Y'm supposing that it's worth our while to go below,” and with that he swung himself down the rope that Burke haa hitehed'aft, and entered the saloon, But Kenner continued to stand upon the slippery deck, while the nerves of his face twiched; and he could not keep hts ‘hands still. A moment later Messenger clambered up as he descended, and burst into a hearty fit of sniggering laughter—the nervous result of the unspeakable strain. . “Kenner,” sald he, ‘come and look for yourself, So far as Tear see avery sbilling of the bullion is Just where I left it!" What" cried Kenner; and with that he rolled over upon the eck ina faint, so that, !f Burke had npt held him, he would have gone down Into the sea. ‘One. boat-lond was taken out of the saloon and then, coast- fmg:'along the rocks of the’ shore, they sought for a plate to conceal their treasure. After much search tt was found—a natural harbor’ which seemed to be cut hy mature just for their own purpose. Not only did a channel ef the sea somo eight feet wide run into this haven, giving meter even at the bottom. of the tide, but the passage turned somo thirty feet from the shore, and thére disclosed a perfect flord, with ollffs eixty feet high, almost shutting out the sky overhead, and a still basin of water which had all the aspect of & lagoon. = It was in all things such a harBor as they might have prayed for, and when, they ‘being just come to the head of {t, the moon sent radiating beams down through the white canyou and a thousand pinnacles of rock glinted in the yellow Dght, there was a wild picturesqueness about thelr retreat which surpassed description. ‘Burke’f first exclamation when the boat grounded was one of delight. “Look you,” sald he, “there's a rock bottom at the turn of the passage, and a pool two feet deep there. You couldn't want better if it had been made for you. Drop the stuff there, and there it Iles till the day of judgment for all the sea'll do to it." ‘ At these words they dolled the freight into the sea-pool, where it sank with a heavy splash; and then, scarce con- renting to walt, as Burke insisted, for cloud, which was coming up with a gentle westerly wind, to coyer the moon, they pushed heedlessly to sea, and by dawn a second load fay in the calm water of the cove, and the men prepares | In!the Ight of the day for their own concealment and for that of, their boat. At night they rowed out for another load; Having pegsed to row for a spell that they might shape the best course possible to make the inner pool, they were sud- fenly startied by a low cry from Fisher, who had the tiller, and whose eyes were glued upon the reef. “prince,” said he, ‘is that a man moving on the poop there, or can’t I see straight?” “By gosh! {t is a man!" sald Burke, chiming in, cried: “Two men, sah, and @ keg for to lug, by golly!" If a gunshot had come among them, you could not have surprised them more shatply. For some moments they sat speechless, laying upon their oars, and watching the two fellows who were deliberately hauling one of their kegs into a boat anchored on the shoreward side of the islets, but whose mast stood above the ledge with a triced- up lug-sail flapping to the breeze, So busy were they that no sound of the approaching ship's boat had disturbed them; nor did they see her as she lay with her crew atupefied and wordless. And when they had lowered the keg of bullion, they disappeared into the cabin again, seem- ingly unconsclous. pf observation or of danger. But Mess- enger had already made up his mind, and, pulling out his tevolver, he said; I “Mark your man, and shoot straight! knives, and it's best fought apart, I go firs He went lightly, down the ladder as he spoke, and, the Spaniards immedjately turning, he shot at the one upon the left hand; but the fellow raised his arm as the trigger fell, and the bullet split the bone of it and spent Itself in the far cushions. ‘The other, with a pitiful cry upon his lips, whipped out his knife and dropped under the wrecked table, ‘wiiere Burke shot at him twice; ‘and each time he groaned as though the bullet had burned bis body. Meanwhile the lantern had rolled over at the jar; and in the utter dark- ness (for they yet lacked the light of the moon) Messenger cloned in upon the fellow who had been wounded, and hugged him in a fierce embrace, so that he bawled with ‘the pain of the arm which ‘was broken, and yet fought to hold off the revolver. which’ was so mear to his temple, Such a struggle could scarcé Nave endured for two minutes but for the intervention of the man under the table, who, of a sudden, slashed with his knife at Messenger's legs, and cut one of them from the knee-cap to thé shin. smart of the wound and a touch of the knife in the other compelled the Prince to let his man loose, and, fiing-4 ing bim with a great effort upon. the floor, he deliberately shot at his body as he Jay; but the pain nad unnerved utm, and at the fourth shot only did the Spantard quiver wi his limbs draw up In the contraction of death.

Thus for a spel’ they rolled about on the floor, the one now as farce us the two, enraged and hopeless in the terrible combat, In- deed, the daring of his struggle was beyond description; and Purke was upon the very point of unconsciousness when & chance move brought st to an end. ‘The great American was, as 1 have sald, near to being choked. So strong was his agony that he rolled at last right round under the Spaniard's clutch; and, thus turhing Is body, the sheath of his knife struck Messenger's leg. Furke himself could not speak; but his partner felt the touch of the haft, and, holding to the doomed man's arm with one of his hands only, he dfew Burke's blade from the sheath quickly, and with savage etrength drove it into the soft body again and again. Yet etill the man was not done with, for as the others rose up he of a sudden, in a horrid contraction of fis muscles, slashed flercely with the hand that held his knife; and at the stroke he laid open Burke's face from the temple to the chin, sending the huge scoundrel: howling from the cabin to the deck, where he lay, with oaths upon his lips, near blinded with his blood. Thither Messenger followed hirh, white and sick with the shock of re- ction, sweat gathering thick upon his forehead, his ragged clcthes torn the more, his legs scarred and slashed—yet with his nerve as ready and his purpose as ect as at the begin~ ning of it. f “Burke!” he cried, when he came to the top of the com- nion, “where are you? Did you get cut, man?” “Cut!” yelled Burke, “cut! Look at me; I gu ccals on my ctieek—burn his body! I'm plinded!"" Messenger bentedown and looked at the upturned and hideous face. He ahuddered os he saw it, and, pulling at his soft linen shirt at the throat, he tore off a great piece and bound up the wound clumsily, while the other howled child- ishly with the pain’ of it. ae “That'll hold you till we're ashore,” said the Prince, as he orked with deft fingers; “get into the ‘boat and take/a pull the spirits. You, there, Joe! bring her in and come aboard.” While they rowed madly for shore. gun boomed dnd rockets flared. The wind had risen to a fete, and yet in the | giare of the rockets they saw a ship ashore and along the ch a swarm of hurrying meh, Thé) wrecjerg .were at work. They had scaiwely reached ‘thelr haven and stored the gold when Messenger and Kenfer hurried out to watch the evil crew. Along an upper road a party of horsemen passed, led by a woman.

Burke's giant constitution enabled him to recover rapid- ly, and on the seventh night, they watched for Ken- ner's coming, they saw another ship lured upon the rocks and wrecked under the direction of the Spanish hag. After that Messenger was all curiosity to know more of the woman and her people, and with Fisher set out to dis- cover what he might, They followed a path up a valley and came upon a wall up which they clambered and found béheath their feet a rude stone building and heard the volces of many men below them. ‘I, when reading the papers which deal with these mo- ments of episode, have often thought that the whole future of the men who survived the Semiramis might have been different had Messenger quieted the curiosity which led him to this gate, They were, as I say, perched upon the roof of a stone buflding Incased in the very skle of the oliff; but they peroelved, when they looked from this, that a comparatively wide path ran along the side of the ravine some thirty feet below them, and the house, or whatever it was, upon which they stood had a frontage to the path; yet from its dilapida- tion they judged that it was now not used, and that thus their position was less dangerous than they had at first thought. §o plain was this at last that Messenger began Recor’-br thn task.’ Over a million stitches were the Union Nothing Ud like bs would ruin a Make no m Iam what I am by the sufferance of the | If not I will put 1t In another form, by the assertion that there morrow if the great majority of the people 40 willed and the manipulation of the ballot-box prevent the expression of the will of the th and’ never can be great enough, to dofeat the will of @ large majority of the “Why am Ia boss?
