Ten People Dead and Properly
Loss I IB Reach $100,000.
ENTIRE OULF COAST IS SWEPT
Seawall Built After Former Devasta
Saves City From Complete
Destruction.
Galveston, Tex., July 22. A hurri
cane equaling in violence the one that
devastated this city nine years ago,
wept in from the Gulf of Mexico yes
terday, did $100,000 worth of damage
in the city proper, coat the lives of
about a dozen people, cut off all rail
and telegraphic communication with
the mainland and then Bwept on inland,
leaving a wake of destruction and suf
fering behind.
Owing solely to th e warnings sent
out by the weather bureau that had
first detected the storm in the Carib
bean sea, the shipping at the port
here escaped damage, all vessels being
made snug before the fury of the gale
struck. The 17-foot seawall, built
two years after the former devastation
of the city, kept the huge waves from
eating away the land as they had done
before, but this wall was not sufficient
to keep the water from the lower
streets, from whence- it poured into
the warehouse cellars, damaging thou
sands of dollars' worth of goods.
Ten people were drowned in the
water that swept over a portion cf
Tarpon pier, seven miles from the
city. They were washed from the
rock promentories into the gulf and
the bodies have not yet been recovered.
During the height of the gale a
heavy dredge which was at work in
the channel behind the island, broke
from its moorings and was swept into
the steel railroad bridge that connects
Galveston with the mainland. The
impact of the blow at once severed tel
ephone and telegraph wires, and for a
time fears were felt on the mainland
that a repetition of the disaster of
nine years ago had occurred.
.Sweeping westward, the tropical
storm, which had been central over
the gulf for 24 hours or more struck
Galveston Bhortly after 11 o'clock. The
wind attained a velocity of 68 miles
an hour, and heaved the waters of
Galveston bay up against the island
and flooded the section that had not
been raised. The water backed up
into the main streets. The principal
damage, however, was conBned to the
beach front, where bath houses and
pleasure piers were swept away, but
shipping was not disturbed.
A hurricane for East Texas was fore
casted early in the day, and when the
storm broke, Galveston was prepared.
The inhabitants of the few scattered
bouses sought safety, as did the ves
sels riding at anchor in the bay. The
fury of the storm soon abated and the
anxiety of those who entertained fears
of another tidal wave were thus early
relieved. So short was the duration
or the storm, that a Mallory line
steamer, booked to start for New York
shortly after noon, left on time.

LOSS IS HEAVY IN LOUISIANA
Grave Fears for Safety o People in
Small Towns Entertained.
New Orleans, July 23. That there
was greater loss of life in Southwest
ern Louisiana than that reported up to
1 o clock today is confidently belie vad.
Several hundred people have taken
refuge in the United States biological
station at Cameron, La. The waters
of th gulf last night covered a large
portion of the parish, rising to a point
within six inches of the high water
mark made during the storm which
destroyed Galveston nine years ago.
Much stock has been destroyed.
The gravest fears are etui being en
tertained in connection with the fate
of many persons at coast towns. Be
tween Calcasieu Pass, La., and Sabine
Pass, Tex., there are several hundred
people who have failed to get into com
munication with the outside world
since the hurricane. Heavy damage
and possible loss of life is feared at
Johnson's Bayou, La.
Reports of damage at settlements
and towns as far south as Brownsville,
Tex., are coming in.
It is reported that many houses were
wrecked in Brazora and Allenhurst.
At Richmond, an interior town, 50
houses are reported to have been par
tially wrecked.
On account of anxiety felt over the
fate of 1,000 or more persons in at
tendance on the State Baptist Young
People's encampment at Palacios, on
the coast of Texas, an effort is being
made to reach that point All tele
graph wires are down as the result of
a storm which swept the entire coast.
Further loss of life is reported from

tide. It's nearly full, and then it will
turn in about an hour, 1 should say."
She looked at the little chatelaine
watch she wore, and gave a cry of dis
may. 'But that will be 7 oVlivk and th.n

aunt will be worried half out of her poor
old head."
"They dine too earlv : the mlo. the

Nie turned a trifle inmeriouslv to
wards me. "Still, that is the hour, and
I must be getting back. What answers
to the problem have your frequent studies
brought?"
"The first Is to wait until the cause
way is dry," I answered, avoiding her
eyes and looking out to sea.
Hut that Is out of the Question." she
said, with the faint hint of a tannine
foot upon the dec. The touch of au
thority made me stubborn.
'There's a fine view of the sunset
from here, though not so fine as from
the cliff beyond my house. You should
see that some evening when you're not
afraid of mirsing dinner."
She looked me over while I kept my
face away, and I could feel the struggle
whether resentment or amusement should
have the upper hand. The latter finally
won. "Please help me to get home. Mr.
" she began.
"Felix Selden ," I supplied her, "though
I'd much rather you stayed here, Miss
and I in my turn bung question
ing.
"Barbara Graham," she answered quite
frankly. Then suddenly she laughed, and
I was forced to join her. "Come, Mr.
Pirate, now that are properly known to
each other, and I have thanked you for
your compliment, will you think of a way
to save my poor aunt from nervous pros
tration? If you will, I promise some day
to go without dinner and come to see the
sunset from your cliff."
"It's a bargain," I said, and strode res
clutely across the deck to the tide where
the causeway ran.
"But how? What are you doing to
do?" came in surprised accents from Miss
Graham.
I stopped and turned. "You will not
wait for the tide, and you must not wet
the slippers, so there's only one way
left."
"And what is that?' she asked.
"For me to carry you ashore."
I happened to be looking at her, and
her face went pink of a second, pink
over the brown of the sun.
"But." she stammered, "I don't think
that would do."
"It's the only alternatlvce," I said,
positively.
"Are you sure,' she said, "that you
are strong enoueh.?"
I looked at her slender figure and
laughed. "I have not lived out of doors
for nothing." I answered. "I could car
ry you from here to the Shifting Shoal
vender without tiring."
Again came the infectious laugh, ap
parently at the thrill of the adventure,
and I found it impossible to keep from
joining her.
"Rut it's time I made the boast good,

picked her up in my arms, careful to
keep the little slippers and her skirts
clear of the waves.
"You must put your arms about my

"Must I?" she said quite demurely, and

I walked back through the woods and
up the beach. The western sky was fair
ly ablace with color. It seemed that a
beacon flamed through the pines upon my
cliff.
Have you ever known such a beauti
ful afternoon, Charles?" I asked my man
at supper.
"Never, Mr. Felix, never."
I was sitting so that I could look out
of the window at the sea.
It was unusually glorious, even for
Alastair, wasn't It?" I pursued.
Yes. sir. It certainly was. sir. even
for Alastair, sir." .
After supper I had my coffee on the
balcony and sat there and smoked and
wondered how long It had been sine a
petticoat had boarded the Ship.
CHAPTER III.
The weather next morning was just
right for a ride, and sending for my
horse, I made a great circuit of the
woods, coming back by the marshes
about noon. As I galloped past the up
per end of the lowlands I heard a voice
calling to me, and, drawing rein, waited
until the voices owner appeared. This
proved to be an extremely . sunburned
young man dressed in very loud tweeds.
lie carried a fishing-rod over his arm.
and a fish-basket dangled from his shoul
der.
'I say, do you know the country here
abouts?" : he inquired. "I've lost my
way, and I m infernally hot and tired.'
He looked it; his lips were almost as
mutinous as those of a spoiled child, and
even the tut or nls soft felt bad bad a
dejected aid. . (
'Where do you want to go?" I asked
In return. "The Penguin club lies about
three miles off to the east
"Yes, thaft it." he said. "I'm a Pen
guinlte, worse luck." He dropped the
fishing-rod and tried to kick some of the
mud from bis boots. ."I came out to get
some fishing at S this morning, and not
a bite have I bad, nor a morsel of food
tasted since. My legs ache at the thought
of that three miles yet to go. Isn't there
farm-bouse somewhere near where
could get something to eat?"
The appeal in his eyes was so plaintive
that I could not help smiling. Thereat
he smiled back. . : . '
'It's a beastly pickle, isn't It?" be
said. "The next time I'll arrange to
have a man follow me with lunch.
It was only a quarter of a mile to my
cottage. "Come along with me," I said.
"I'll fix you up."
He grinned gratefully, and trudged
along beside me until we came lo the cot
tage. I called for Charles and sent him
off with the horse, . By the time he re
turned, my guest was feeling consider
ably better, having postponed famine by
the aid of whisky and soda. He sat
down to dinner with the air of a king
come into his own. For a time he ate
silently but strenuously, then he looked
up at me. ,
"They don't give us such food at the
club, no, 'sir-ee, and as for the wines,
they csn't compare with your claret.
Funny to think of finding such things
down here in the country, awa of at the
end of an empty beach. I didn't know
there was a civilised man within fifty
miles of here. Do you bsppen to come
from New York?
"Originally," I made answer. "But It
was some time ago."
"Funny thing, New York," said my
guest "When I'm back there I think I'd
like to be out in the open country, but
as soon as I have my wish I'm crazy
for the old burg. I've been down at the
Penguin now for more than two weeks,
and I don't suppose an hour of the day
passes when I don't long for the scenery
of Broadway. The worst time la at
night. I can sit on the club porch and
fairly hear the Elevated sizzle by. Some
times it seems as if I really couldn't
stand it any longer."
"Why do you?" I asked. ":
"There are reasons, good and suffi
clent reasons," he answered, with a slow
smile. "Reasons for which I might be
living In Kamchatka as well as any
where else.

in an upward spiral. "So little differ

"History teaches that people are al

"However. I don't blame them. Im

Islip looked at me with a merry twin

He did not seem disposed to explain
that position, and I would not press him.
After a time w adjourned to my bal
cony and sat there enjoying th day, car
rying on a somewhat desultory conver
sation. I found that I liked this man;
there was a frank camaraderie Shout
him, an openness of face and spirit, that
irresistibly appealed. He seemo! the
better sort of young New Yorksr, thor
oughly optftnistlc, slways st his ease.
I could e he hsd the knack of knowing
how to dress; even his loose, baggy Out

"Do you ever shoot st gulls?" he
ssked, noting the birds that wheeled con
tinually in from sea and over th cliffs.
No ; it s bad luck to shoot them. In
stormy weather, when sailors can't see
their hands before their faces, they can
hear the beating of gulls' wings and look
out for hidden rocks. On comes to

I dare say. It must be beastly work

I voften think that when I'm In bed

We smoked for a time In silence.
"What a contrast," Islip said at length,
"between this quiet beach and the folks

asked.
'A goodish number."
'Who are they?" I Inquired Idly;

broke off definitely.
I changed the subject. I didn't care
very much about the rest of th guests

A little later Islip took up bis fishing-
rod and his empty basket, and we walked
up the beach together. At the farther
end I pointed him out his road home,

It was plain that he could n t keep his

there on the beach, then I watched him
climb the rocks and disappear. It was
pleasant to have company, 1 considered,
but for some reason I found the Ship,
