By nightfall they were not gaizing at all; and when morning game, bringing a dropping wind and moderating sea, the inrush was gaining on them unmistakably and alarmingly,
In the afternoon Captain Pennosby took Counsel of Captain Cribsley, erst of the mohooner **Seaspray," and the result of the
wpference was presently soon when the
order went forth to clear away and provision the boat.
Below in the cabin, Mrs Fennesby, hag. ged from stooplessness and physical fear: beside her Minie, with the illogicalness of childhood, was softly crooning n lullaby, The child looked
when Captain Pennes- by, heavy-eyed and grimvisaged, entered, "Where aro wa now, Father she asked And the captain said,God knows," and Lissed her, Then to his wife-It's all over, lass. We'll have to leave her. Got A fow things together for yourself and Mimie.
She understood, and her stupor fled be fore the necessity for action. She began to bustle about the disordered cabin.
The captain returned to the deck, Ithad: fined wonderfully since morning, The wind: had dropped to a breeze, and all the sava- gery had gone out of the sea. The sun was dipping westward in a clear sky. Some of the hands were still at the pump, and the scuppers were gurgling gaily, but the sluggish movements of the wallowing bull told their own tale..
Captain Cribsley, leaning against the rail glanced at the wreck of the foremast. I'm

Rubbish, Crib. Captain Pennesby's bearded face flushed momentarily with its native goodnature. Fortune of the sea, and it's not the first time, we've been.

A monient later he called

He dived below, and reappeared in a few minutes, carrying Minie. His wife clung to his arm. The crew crowded the boat
alongside.
Now, Crib," said Captain Pennesby, jump down, and I'll lower these pas engers to you.'*
Cribsley eyed him deliberately, but made you go down,"he

Captain Fennesby's lips twitched as he steadied the child to the deck..

One of us'll have to stay, and'—with sud- den ferocitydamme, I'm the man ! ⠀
The woman stood motionless, as one un- comprehending. In the boat an impatient voice complained of the delay; the Cat- pahoaved sluggishly with the sea's motion.
Then Captain Cribaley cursed energetical- ly and exhaustively and swore by all things. sacred and profane that he would drown, bang, burn or rot, but let Pennesby bo trowned he wale not. All of which Cap- sain Pennesby heard with the glow in his eyes that comes to a man who finds hist friendship justified. The next instant he was entreating, commanding, finally raging -and consequently foolish.

At 11 o'clock on Sunday night a regi--- ment of infantry marched to this thorough fare from Smolna Street, when somebody fired on then, whereupon the troops were ordered to forin a square and fire fron four sides.
Any criticity of the troops must be qualified by the fact that they are fighting under trying conditions, being contantly ex- posed to snipers and occasionally stabber 50,000 men by passers by. Generally the troops are

this is the date when Japan began to understand what books really wore, and how advantageous it was to be able to record facts systomatically. Of course it would take even the most intelligent of Japanese some time to assimilate a script which, even now, is the despair of most Europeans, and only the privileged possession of a handful. It would take still more time to utilise these newly discovered characters for purposes of exchequer or administrative record. Ac cordingly the first accurately recorded date of any kind in Japanese bistory is the pour A.D. 461, and all before that is an absolute blank, except in so far as Japanese tradi. tions and yards' may be supported by the specific and sober statements of Chinesa historians.

But it is an idle wind that blows no- one any good, and at the meeting of the Shanghai Gas Company they permitted themselves a long crow on the superiority of gas for lighting, heating and power. And in the face of the many just complaints lodged in connection with the electric lighting, the French Settlement is well advised to have the incandescent gas system in the streets, and the residents elsewhere, as I myself can vouch, heartily wish that they were domiciled there also.
