This surinise agreed with his own theory of the storm, as indicated by the sea. Mr. Emmett held out a clenched fist with thumb jerked towards the reef. “I wouldn’t breathe a word if he wasn’t gone,” he said, “but the old man was drivin’ her too hard. I knew it, an’ the chief knew it”â€"he meant the chief engineerâ€"“but he wouldn’t lis- ten to either Mac'or me. Fact is, he UV“ UV v-vâ€"v was fair crazy to set up a new record for the boat. She’s been crossin’ the Atlantic forty times a year for up- wards of twenty years, and the recent alterations, although they added fifty feet to her length, only increased her engine-power in proportion.” “You surprise me,” broke in Brand. “You speak as it the Chinook were nearly as old as this lighthouse, yet I have never even heard her name be- fore.” _ __ IUI V. “You know her well enough all the same,” said the other ruefully. “This is her maiden voyage since she was altered; an’ they rechrlstened her, tooâ€"always a dâ€"â€"â€"-d unlucky thing to do. I say. Bless your heart, man, she is the old Princess Royal. Eh? What’s “Certain! Well, surely I ought to know. I have passed most of my ser- vice with the company in her, and when I took a crew to Cramp’s to navigate her to New York after she was smartened up I little imagined I! would see her laid by forever the next; time we saw the lights of Old Eng-1 land. My goodness, even what was left of the old girl ought to know her way better’n that.” “But what did really happen?” “Drivin’ her I tell youâ€"drivin’ her full pelt to land the mails at South- ampton twelve hours ahead of sche- dule. With that awful sea liftin’ her. and a shaft twenty feet longer, what could you expect? Poor Perkins! A rare hard worker, too. Now he’s gone down with the ship an’ over two hun- dred passengers an’ crew.” He guffawed mournfully at Brand’s involuntary exclamation: . I L A- “Juaglng â€"by the number saved I feared that more were lost." “It’s the off season. you know. The passenger list was light. For the Lord’s sake, think of what it might have been in May or June!" "It is bad enodgh as it is. All has not ended with the disappearance of the vessel.” The sailor shot a. sharp glance at Brand. “You can’t be thinkin’ anyone was to blameâ€"" he commenced. But Brand waved aside the fancied impu- tation. “Blame!" he said. “With a broken shaft! In that whirlwind! No. no. I sent for you to talk over the new difficulty which has to be faced. There are food. water and fuel here for three men for two months. If you do a little sum you will find that the available stores on the basis of full rations will maintain eightyâ€"one people for two days and a quarter.” H “"But we’re.on1y six miles from the mainland.” Mr. Emmett had not yet grasped the true meaning or the fig- ures. “I have been here more than once for six weeks at a stretch, when, for all the assistance we could‘ receive. we might as well have been within the Arctic Circle.” mAgain the sailor jerked his thumb towards the reef. “Is it as bad as an that?” he queried anxiously. “Yes." “But six weeks. Good Lord!" Mr. Emmett had done the little aum._ “That is exceptional. A week is the average unless the unexpecth happens, after a gale like this. And la week win test our endurance to the lmlt.” Mr. Emmett whistled softly. A grisly phantom was creeping at'him. He shivered, and not from cold. “By Jove!” he said. “What’s to be done? “In the first place, you must help me to maintain iron discipline. To leave the rock to-day or to-morrow will be an absolute impossibility. On thenext day, with luck and a steady moderation of the weather. we may devise some desperate means .of land- ing all the active men or getting fresh supplies. That is in the hands of Providence. I want you to warn your officers, and others whom you can trust, either sailors or civilians. Bet- ter arrange three watches. My daugh- ters will have charge of the stores. By going through the lists in the store-room I can portion out the ra- tions for six days. I think we had ibetter fix on that minimum.” “Of course I will back you up in every way,” said Mr. Emmett, whe felt chillier at this moment than at any time, during the night. “I know you are acting wisely, but I admit I am scared at the thought of what may happenâ€"ii those days pass and no help is available.” Brand knew what would. happen, and it was hard to lock th secret’ in his heart. He alone must lve. That Was essential, the one thing carved in stone.upon the tablets of his brain, a thing to be fought out behind bar- ICU UUUI. lev-vv- â€"â€" Whatever else took place, ii men and women, perhaps his own sweet girls, were dying of thirst and starva- tion, the light must shine at night over its allotted span of the slumbering sea. There, on the little table beside him, lay the volume of Rules and Regfilations. What did it say? “The keepers, both principal and assistant, are enjoined never to allow any interests, whether private OY- otherwise, to interfere with the dis- charge of their public duties. the in- portance of which to the safety of navigation cannot be overrated.” , There was no ambiguity in the words; no halting sentence which Opened a way iorauman to plead: “i “-.. - u... 4-; UWUCU D “-J 5"- â€" .â€"â€"--._ _ thought At test.” Those who buried the rule meant what they add. hio man oogld bend the “eel” of their 1113 Continued from page 6. 9” THE DURHAM CHRONICLE To end the intolerable strain of his thoughts Stephen Brand forced his lips to a thin smile and his voice to say harshly: â€"â€"â€"-_â€" _._.L “If the worst comes to the worst, there are more than three thousand gallons of colza oil in store.

If so, we would ask you to enquire amongst your friends the value of Zam-Buk for this ailment! You cannot but meet with some one who has proved how excellent it is. Mr. II. E. Hill of Shevlin, Msu., writes .--»“I suffered e long time with piles end tried numerous remedies, but without efl'ect. Heving tried e ssmple of Zem-Buk end being encouraged by the result, I persevered, using two boxes. It worked like magic, end effected s complete cure in a. very short time.” 0 Mr. Jamea Ruddy of Killaloe, Ont., eaya z-â€"“ I eufi'ered greatly from pilea. The pain from theseâ€"as anyone who sullen from them will knowâ€"wee al- most unbearable. I tried first one remedy and then another, but all with. out efl'ect. Then I heard about Zamc Buk and determined to give this won- ' denial balm a trial. I obtained a supply; and commenced with the treatment, and to my great joy, after parse eranoe with Zam-Buk, I obtained per ent relief from the agonizing pain of the pilea. Having been cured by Zam-Bn-k I heartily recommend the helm to all anfl'erera. ” um 0061p octet. WH AT HE FEARED To be continued.
