('uplnin Stevens might have thrilled to it under different H renin -Btnnccw; hut ho did not. llu had withdrawn into a grim, sullen shell of taciturnity which only cracked or huff coed when Mary wan on deck. In the days that followed, tins An gel of peace hovered a bit further nwiiy from the Orontea than usual. After the firnt few days of settling flown, when, men and mates not yet acquainted with each other, the inn ten of necessity seemed hard until they .knew the men, the fluent harmony had ruled the tall clipper. The men were as good as the average, if not bet ter; the mates knew their work and did not drive the men unncceanrily. But the devil seemed to have entered into Captain Htevena. He ordered the mates to work the men at jobs and hours out of reason. The matcB bad to do ft. Instead of peace, there was smoldering discontent in the fore castle, and the men blamed Drake for It. Even Joe Bunting and Nick Coombs, both friends, grumbled that he bad brought this upon the men by daring to put up. a fight when the akipper hammered him. , Drake took all their grumbling with a laugh. He was sorry for them, but told them to blame the skipper rather than him. It was the skipper who started in to hammer him, not he the akipper. But all told, there was tin rest in the forecastle where before had been peace. 'Erbert Oats asked to be shifted ever to the other watch. He was afraid of Tony. Tony was bound to kill Mmt he said. 'Erb was laughed at by the mate. He took his tale to the skipper, who ran him out of the cabin by his collar, and told the mate to tie a rattle around his neck. And Tony grinned evilly at the panic be was starting. Tony and the Doctor formed themselves into a gang of two. The Doctor, dirty at first, dirtier as the Toyage rolled on, was an outcast Hot even the apprentices stopped to toady to him for privileges. Instead of flattering him so that they might Cook their Dog's Body In the after noons for supper, they went boldly to the mato and secured the privilege officially. That made the Doctor hate the mate. Soon there would be trouble wltU the crew, too; for the food, good enough, was spoiled by bad cooking. Tony was a good man to wing in with. He handled a knife like a man, did Tony. Thus the Doc tor reasoned. And old Bill Gad , gett, the bosun, after settling down to a comfortable voyage with a crew who knew their work, found himself suddenly as be-damned and outcast as the Doctor; and all becauso he was ordered by the motes to work up the men. Drake had in turn done all the hu miliating jobs of the ship. The ap prentices woro given the, brnsswork to clean, and he was given the morn ing job of cleaning out the chicken coops and the sheep pen.

Chips overhauled tops and cross trees, mast fids and rigging screws; saw to hia tarpaulins and', batten wedges. Then came tho night when the Doc tor was wnshed out of hia galley, bombarded by blB pots, and smothered in a sticky mass of dough which would certainly have brought his end as a cook had It ever been mado into bread. Tho Doctor never knew that his narrow escnpo from drowning had saved hia life for a little while longer. But the sea that cleaned out hia galley filled the deep main deck. It held the ship down perilously. It was no time for crncking on. ,'Two 'and send down th akys'l yard! roared old Jf ill Gadgett. Young Tubba and Sims sprang into the main rigging. Strong young sail ormen they were, whatever faults might have been theirs in other wnys. They raced each other for precedence at the futtock rigging, each striving to bo first over the top. They fought lor Iirst place in the narrowing top mast rigging. Tho apprentice on the royal yard heard thorn cursing .each other above the shrieking of the squalL Wondered why they were coming ap.

The royal was finished, the ap prentice climbed into (lie topgallant rigging bcBido them. They felt tho skysail billiards pull, tight as men on deck swayed away. Then: "Lower away easy, skysail hal liards!" The Blender yard crept down into sight. "Hold on!" bawled tho un seen man aloft. Thero was n very brief pause while ho cast off the up per yardorra brace and lift, then: "Lower away handsomely! All clear!" and a figure flashed downwards by a backstay to the deck. "That was Drako sent down the skysail yard, air. Did It alngle handed," the second mato told the skipper when tbo ship waa snug ajrain. "I'll have the police investigate him in Capo Town!" the captain growled.
