Braud took the Instrument. "Why don't you come this way? The others will follow." he bellowed, "There are women and children down lielow. They must lie saved first, and they cannot climb tlie maat." was the reply. "All right, but send up a couple of sailors We are abort handed here." "Rlght-o," sang out the other cheer ily. though he wondered why three men should anticipate difficulty. Down hr went. Without waiting. Brand and the glrle hauled lustily at the ro|»e. It was no child's play to hoist a heavy pulley and several hun dred feet of stout cordage. More than once they feared the first thin rope would break, but It wns good hemp, and soon tbe block was booked to the strong Iron stanchions of the railing. To make assurance doubly sure. Brand told Enid to take several turns of tbs spare cord n Found tbe hook au<l the adjacent rails. Meanwhile, Constance and he saw that the rope Was moving through tits pulley without their assistance. Then through the whirling scud lieneatb they made out an ascending figure clinging to It. Roon be was done to the gallery. Catching hlta by trine and collar they lifted him Into safety. Ho was one of the junior officers. and Constance, though she hardly expected It. expert diced a momentary feeling of disap pointment that the first mau to escape was not tlie handsome youth to whose cool daring some nt least of the ship'« company would owe their Ilves. The newcomer was a typical Briton. “Thanks,” he snld. "Close shave. Iiave you a light? We must signal after each arrival." Knld brought the small lantern, and the stranger waved It twice.

A similar problem, with a different point to I* determined, was «s-cupylug the active, mind of the "American youngster” who had solved the knot tleat proposition put forward during that eventful night. Ho watched tbe forwarding of shrieking, shuddering or Inanimate men. He timed the operation by watch, as the reflected light from lamp was quite sufficient for the pur- pose. Then lie ap[»roarhrd tbe captain. "Bay. skipper.” be cried, "bow long do you give the remalua of ber to bold outF "It Is not high water yet.” waa the answer “1‘erbapa liulf an hour.

That's thirty In half an hour. Fifty of us will travel a heap quicker at tbe end of that time If your calculation holds good." The captain, who appeared to be tn 0 atu|»or of grief, rouaed himself.

"Now, Mr. Tyne, you next." cried the chief officer, addressing the youug Phil adelphian, who, mfrablle dlctu, bad found and lighted a cigar. “Guess I'll swing up along with tbe captain." was the answer. "t’p with him!" shouted the csptalu fiercely, himself helping to loop Pyne to the fourth officer. All others had gone, The officer« were leaving the alilp In order of len- lortty, the juniors first.' Just as tbe qusrtet were about to swing clear of the ship the captain grasped Pyne’s I hand. "Thank yen. lad." he said, and away they went.
