TAKE Stevens stood in tin swishing
water that rolled across his legs
knee deep in the (cuppers where lie
bad brought up. Ho tiU held on to
the barred grating that had been the
ben coop door. The leather hinges
flapped on the wood, yet und slippery.
Jake's face slowly turned purple; un
dor his blond curls his blue eyes
diminished in size until they appcurcd
like twin points of fire set under
flat blond eaves in a mask of fury,
liiu tooth shone out ludicrously, lie
1 seemed to be grinning up at Drake.
" You tnlkln' to me?" h snarled.
"Because if you are, captain or no
captain, I tell yon to go plumb to
bell! If you'd been lookin' after your
ship, instead o" "
"Go ahead!" snarled Stevens. I
let no man use that tons to mo. Clear
away, there!"
"Leave that boatl Corns up here,
Mr. Stevens! That is an order!"
There was that in Drake's voice now
which penetrated even tha shell of
Stevens' fury. To disobey meant
insubordination. The men kuew bet
ter than to carry on. Drake had
sees the film of wind creeping over
the ikv. which could sot be seen dur
ing those confused moments down in
the flooded wa'st. lie would not
lose rjrecioua time for ft few fowls.
Btevena mounted the poop ladder sul
lenly. Mary stepped aside, and witn
difficulty refrained from screaming.
She saw the two men face to face.
And never before had aha so clearly
Men them compared In all their
atrenrth and weakness.
"I'm here, captain I" announced
Stevens belligerently.
"I lee yon are. Mister Stevens,1
sodded Drake. 'What was that you
answered, when I spoke to you just
now?"
"How do I know? Can a man re
member the words he says when has
bait drowned? Might ha' said any
thing.
"I ram ember what I said," pursued
Drake, evenly. "I ask what you let
those fowls out lor. I believe I
called you a elnmsy fool."
"Ay, and I told you to go plumb
to belli" shouted Btevena in mad
rage. "What about it? hey? What
about it?
"I sea you do remamber. Toull
apologise, Mister Stevens."
"I'll see you damned 1"
Mary stepped into the companion
way, her hands pressing at her hot
cheeks. Thera stood two men.' Both
had wooed her, each after his own
fnshion. She saw bitter conflict
nbrewlng between them now, far
more bitter than any before. And
now she could not be sure where the
victory would go. She knew Stevens
for an iron man; would 'Drake prove
true steel? And, moot disturbing of
all tilings, there was a subtle doubt
in her heart now whether she wanted
iron or steel to ensure. It was a
now doubt, conceived and born with
. in the brief apace of time that roll
ing sea took to upset thlngB. And
. it frightoucd her us she had novcr
felt frightened before.
"I'll see you damned!" repeated
Take Stevens, and swung on his heel
with finality in every line of his big
body and bold head.
"At six bells, Mister Stevens, you
will bring an apology to my cabin,"
said Drake in the same even tons.
"Othorwiso, you will complote tho
passage in tho forecastle."
Stevens flushed around nt that.
But Drake had gone below as ho
uttered the words, scarcely noticing
Mary as aba cowered in the dim com
pnnionway. As for Mary, she shrank
aa far from his as she could, then,
terrified by the apalltng sense of ca
lamity which overwhelmed all her
earlier fears and made them seem
childish, she ran out on deck and
gripped Stevens by the arm.
"Oh, Jake, don't start more
trouble!" ah pleaded, and the eyes
which ehe raised to bis astonished
face were brimming over.
"What do you care?" he retorted
with a bitter laugh. "You want to
aee that dude walk hobnailed over I
me, don t yon?"
"I care mora than yon think.
Jake," sd persevered. "And you
didn't tell him to go to hell when he
almost got clubbed to death dragging
yon out of that drunken fight in
Capa Town!" Iler eyoe were big and
dark and angry now, and she met
his gate directly.
"If you're half tha man you say
you are, you'll be at the captain's
door with your apology at all bells,"
she said. Then she turned and left
him.
Bnt at six bells he knocked on
Drakes door, cap in hand.
Mary spent a lot of time over her
toilet that evening. She went in to
supper dressed aa If for a gay party.
Drake, tnri'led with her sparkling
vivacity, yet resented those few mo
ments she had spent on deck. He
kenw quite well what it must have
tost the mat to make that grumb
ling apology awhile, ago. Tet Mary
ought to know that he did not like
her to break his rule abont speaking
to the malo while on watch.
"Mary," he started to aay, "you
must not"
"Oh, Just a minotef she inter
rupted him, springing up and run
ning to her cabin. While digging
Into her trunk for pretty clothes to
Wonr at supper, she had taken out
n ninh Jongg set purchased In Cap
Town. She had almost forgotten she
had it. Hut sight of It reminded her
Hint It might well serve a good turn
)W; and shs had laid It on her bunk.
Now, through sheer necessity to stop
the reprimand that was on his lips,
hhe flew to the game as to a refuge
from something terrible.
So they pleyed at playing a game
which neither knew, and whirh Jake
Stevens knew still less, since he hail
never heard of the game. Such a
muddle they made of it. Hut it di
verted their thoughts.
Itut the steady rush of the wel
come breeze did not blow awav that
perfect politeness which had become
the accepted relation between Cap-
tain Drake and his first mule, Try
aa the might, Mary could not keep
Vier mind off that outward form of i '
friendship which she felt sure wa f
but the ahinilig cloak covering an j
t vil thing. It waa the on thing, so
far as she haw, keeping utter peace
from the ship.
Off watch, Jake Stevens often

mor, That alone made her afraid.
lie stood beside her on the poop

"Mary, J wanted to talk with you
a long tiino now," said .hike (Steven?
with something like awkwardness )ii
his manner. ,
Ho grew inoro ill ut ense. J lis fee4,
shifted and his big hand crumpled
up the fleecy sheekukin until she
wanted to nc renin at him. lie mut
tered as if the words stuck. Then,
with a rush, he said:
"You kissed that minor chap on
the Green Point road.
The surprise of it left her staring
st him with lips parted and blue
eyes at their widest. Something in
her face must have comforted him,
for he smiled. Bewildered though
she was at the apparently irrelevant
turn of his talk, she was obliged to
smile back at him in very relief that
he smiled.
"What did yon do it for?"
"Ileal!, I don't know. Impulse,
perhaps. I felt glad that horrid
fight was over and you were all
safe."
"I'll tell you," said Jnke, and the
smile hovered over him again, un
certainly now, declining to settle.
"You said you kinsed hin because
he had saved the life of the man you
Then you stopped. Hut yon meant
the man you loved, didn't you,
Mary?" Iler eyes fell before his
dork, passionate gaze. There was
a wistful note In his voice, too,
which saddened her. She knew well
enough what was coming next
"Did you mean me, Mary? Or did
yen mean ?"
Blushing furiously Mary sprai.g
from her chair, hurling her work
broadcast over the deck, and rnu be
low, leaving Jake Stevens there with
his question unanswered yet answered
plainly enough. His breath whinUed
through his teeth. lie felt murder
out. The ship swam forward In
peace, and into the peace his stormy
temper hurled dark discord.
"Call all hands!" he ronred. "You,

turn out all hands and sweat up
everything all around the ship! Get
a move on!"
