HE Ocean King bad once been a palatial liner, plying between England and India, carrying gallant officers, beautiful women and Jewel-adorned nabobs. But steam was replacing sail, and at B last the ancient windjammer was degraded to the job of collier | Her channels had been changed to plates with dead-eyes above the ra!l and the lower rigging’s spread was curtailed. The masts had been reduced and her yards shortened; and she now carried stumps fore and | mlzzen-topgallantmasts, The former liner was a tub. A gruesome story still clung to the Ocean King—the story of an Italien seaman who had long ago been murdered in the forccastle and whose | ghost was supposed to haunt the shrouds aud the hold wud to whisper | ghostly warnings to the crew. | When the Ocean King sailed on her first voyage as a collier the BIOBAET TAS. DDDTT officers did all they could to keep her new crew from hearing of this, but the story was brought aboard by the carpenter, who had picked it up from an old waterside gossip, And at once tt spread through the forecastle. Sailors are superstitious, but they are not eaally scared by mere hear- say. And as time went on and no one saw or heard the host, the men talked lews about tt. Then, one day, two of the youngest members of the crew—Jim ant penmenan —were sent aloft by Green, the second mate, to clew up and furl the 1 iain royal. Before the task was haif completed they slid to t deck again and stood trembling and stam “R Phantom nee mering beiore the mate, They both declared they had heard a voice up there wailing: “Jim, your mother wante you!" | ‘Tho mate thought {t was a trick, but they swore it was trie. And, swiftly, from bow to stem the news was spread that the ghost was aboard | and up to Ite old games, The crew waxed nervous, almost demoralized, Next day the cook went three times to the skipper, declaring each time that the latter had called him, The captain denied that he had called and again the ghost got the credit. One night there was @ terrible commotion forward. Green ran to find lout the reason. A half dozen white faced men vowed they had just heard f& voice from the depths of the hold moaning: | “It's a terrible thing to be a ghost and not be able to get out!” The second mate summoned the captain, They agreed there must be fa stowaway in the hold and that he had gone mad, The hatch wae lifted, |and every one heard the same faint votce muttering: “There's no uae looking, you'll never find me, I'm not to be seen.” The captain glared about him to eee if any of the shuddering men were | daring to have a Joke at his expense. And again came the voice, from another direction this time: “You couldn't catch me because you couldn't see me!" After this not even the officers tried to deny that there was a ghost on the Ocean King, And daily the terror waxed stronger. Another night, some time afterward, during Green's watch, the second mate was called forward to listen to @ volce that seemed to come from ¢he | water beneath the boweprit, | “Whichever aide we look, hee on the other,” chattered young Diok to the mate. “Listen, at | “I'm hero," sald a thin, faint volco from tho side opposite that where |the men were clustered. “If dt ain't old Nick.” sputtered Sam, a foremast hand, “I”—— “You're a Mar, Sam," whispered tho voice, Green wheeled suddenly and seized Dick, who stood close bestte htm, Walking the boy out of earshot of the others, the mate eald fiercely: "Bo you're the ghost! To keep your secret you should have given my elbow @ wider berth.
