WHO'S WHO AND WHAT'S + APPENED. iw HEN the whaler Good Luck, out of New Bedford, was wrecked at the Fire Mountain, a volcanic island in the North Pacific, in 1889, one of the two survivors was JOHN WINTERS, who wrote down {fn his log of the finding of vast quantities of ambergris, the substance so valuable because of the demand for it as a perfume base, and of the storing of the precious stuff in one of the innumerable caves in the island. His log goes on to tell of the strange fate of his companion, who believed that the weird noise coming out of a myste- rious hole in the island was the voice of » man he had murdered calling him and, finally crazed, had jumped into the pit. Winters, according to the | fearing the same fate for himself, abandoned the istand in a small boat. the jotted down the position of the cave where the ambergris was stored in code on a piece of skin and inserted it in the binding of his log book. Demented. he ts picked up and brought to Honolulu. There he dies, leaving his log, with the cipher message of such tremendous value, in the hands of the keeper of a Chinese resort. In this place, many years later, LITTLE BiLLY CORCORAN, hunchback steward of the brig Cohasset, recovering from a spree, a cidently finds the log among the Chinaman’s col- lection of odds and ends. He judges from the description that the Fire Moun- tain, with its many caves and queer lava formations, including one that looks like an’elephant's head, is the one which gave refuge not long before to the Cohasset's crew when chased by a Russian gunboat for violating the rule against trading for seal skins with the Siberian natives. SQUARE JIM DABNEY is the blind captain of the Cohasset. His tractive granddaughter, RUTH LE MOYNE is mate of the brig. They are told of the log and the hunchback’s opinion that their island was the one where the great store of i ee ; ambergris was hidden.
