The swordfish is at his breakfast, paying no more attention to the smack than he would to a soap box, or an ocean liner, or any other trifle. | He is the boss of the deep blue sea, !and he values no man, Swordfishing 1s at its height to-day. The season lasts only from the mid- dle of June to the middle of August. After that there is little doing; so the crew are as anxious as if their last dollars were awaiting the turn of the wheel. Shang picked up his harpoon as }soon as he had buckled the strap | around his waist that holds him fast in the pulpit.

Buttoned.” That means that the har- poon went clear through the big fish and tripped, or buttoned, on the fur- ther side of his stout body, When the swordfish had spent most of his strength towing the keg, the sloop ran down near it—each smack has its casks marked with a differ- ent device—and Arthur threw a dory over the side, put in a sort of bale- hook, a lance, which is a long knife- blade at the end of a three-foot pole, and after making sure that the bell was in the boat, to help pick him up in case of fog, set out to “'tend the fish.” Ho rowed the dory alongside the keg, fished it in with the hook, set it on the floor of the dory and began to haul in the line, At the first touch the wounded monster felt the stab of the harpoon renewed in his vitals, In- stantly he came to the surface to look for his enemy.
