I'd give my commission t o see him agrain. Captain Kichard Debney of the British navy, commander of the man-of-war Cormorant, was entertain! some friends in the harbor of San Francisco, and the talk turned upon "Ted" Debney, his brother, who had re signed from the navy several years before because he had chivalrously prevented a, French cruiser from bor ing" holes in a wretched opium smur-srling- craft. "Ted" was impulsive, brave, daring" and loved alike by his superiors and his men. "Have you ever g"ot on the track of Ted?" "Once I thought I had at Sing-apore, but nothing" came of it. No doubt he changed his name. lie never asked for, never got the leg-aoy which my poor father left him." An hour later they were aboard the Cormorant dining" with a number of men asked to come and say g-ood-bye to Mostyu, who was starting for Eng land the second day following, after a pleasant cruise and vioit with Deb ney. Meanwhile, from far beyond the yellow lane of light running" out from Golden Gate there came a vessel, sailing- straig-ht for harbor. She was a larg-e, old-fashioned cruiser, carrying" g"uns, and when she passed another vessel she hoisted the British ensign. She looked like a half obsolete cor vette, spruced up, made modern by every possible device, and all her ap pointments were shapely, and in order. She was clearly a British man-of-war, as shown in her trim dressed sailors, her good handful of marines, but her second and third lieutenants seemed little like English men, and, indeed, one was an American, and one was a Hollander. There was gun drill, and cutlass drill every day, and, what was altogether singular, there was boat drill twice a day, so that the crew of this man-of-war, as they bavv Golden Gate ahead of them, were perhaps more expert at boat drill than any that sailed. Their general discipline did credit to the British na.vy. But they were not given to understand that by their commander, Captain Shewell, who had an eye like a spat of steel and a tongue like aloes or honey as the mood was on him. This was most noticeable when he was shut away from the others in tlie cabin. Then his whole body seemed to change. The eye became softer, yet full of a sort of genial deviltry. The next evening, just after dusk, after having idled about out of sight of the signal station all day. Captain Shewell entered Golden Gate with the Hornet of no squadron. But the officers of the signal station did not know that, ami simply tele graphed to the harbor in answer to the signals from the Corvette, that a British man-of-war was arriving. She came leisurely up the bay, with Cap tain Shewell on the bridge. He gave a low whistle as he saw the Cormo rant in the distance. He knew the harbor well, and saw that the Cormo rant had gone to a new anchorage, not the same as British men-of-war took formerly. He drew away to the old anchorage he need not be sup posed to know that a change was ex- "MY QOD! HOW COULD YOU DO IT?" pected; besides (and this was impor tant to Captain Shewell), the old an chorage was nearer the docks, and it was clear, save for one little lifeboat and a schooner which was making out as he came up. As she came to anchor the Cormo rant saluted her, and she replied in stantly. Custom officers who were watching the craft from the shore, or from their boats, gave up hope of any excitement when they saw and heard the salutes. But two went out to the Hornet, and were received graciously by Captain Shewell, who, over a glass of wine in his cabin appropriately hung with pictures of Nelson and Col iingvood said that he was proceed ing to Alaska to rescue a crew ship wrecked on an island, and that he was leaving the next day as soon as he could get some coal, though he feared it would be difficult coaling that night. Still, he did not need a great deal, he said which was, in deed, the case but he did need some, and he knew thfvt for his own safety and the Hornet's that he must have it. After this, with cheerful compli ments, and the perfunctory declara tion on his part that there was noth ing dutiable on board, the officers Lsdfc hi Hi. if re at si pleased with hi "1 1 i Mil It V .lk yfl mm courtesy, saluted as they left the) ship's side by the marines and sailors star-ding at the gangway. As soon as it was very dark two or three boats pushed out from the Hor net and rowed swiftly to shore, pass ing a customs boat as they went, which was saluted by the ofiieers in command. After this boats kept pass ing back and forth for a long time be tween the Hornet and the shore, which was natural seeing that a tirst night in port is a sort of holiday for oiUcers and men. Close watching would have dis covered the fact that there were a few people on shore who were glad to see the safe arrival of the Hornet, and who, about 1 o'clock in the morning almost fell on the neck of Captain Shewell as they bade him good-by. Then for the rest of the night coal was carried out to the Hornet in boats instead of her coming to the dock to load. By daybreak her coal was aboard cleaning up then came, and prepara tions to depart. Captain Shewell's eye was now much on the Cormorant. He had escaped one danger, he had landed half a million dollars' worth of opium in the night, tinder the very nose of the law, and while customs boats were patrolling the bay, but there was another danger the inquisitiveness of the Cormorant. It was etiquette for him to call upon tho captain of the Cormorant, and he ought to have done so the evening before, but he dared not run the risk, nor could he run it this morning. And yet if the Cormorant discovered that the Hornet was not a British man-of war, but a bold and splendid impostor, made possible by a daring ex-olheer of the British navy, she might open fire, aud he could make but a sorry fight, for he was equipped for show rather than for deadly action. He had got this ex British man-of-war two years before, purchased in Brazil by two adventur ous spirits in San Francisco, had se lected his crew carefully, many of them deserters from the British navy, drilled them and at last made this hold venture under the teeth of a fortress, and at tho mouth of a war ship's guns. Just as he was lifting anchor to get away he saw a boat shoot out from the side of the Cormorant. Captain Debney, indignant at the, lack of eti quette, and a little suspicious also for there was no Hornet in the Pacific squadron, though there was a Hornet, he knew, in the China squadron was coming to see the discourteous com mander. He was received according to custom, and was greeted at once by Captain Shewell. As the eyes of the two men met both started, and Captain Debney most. He turned 1 white, and put out his hand to the ' boatside to steady him self. But Cap tain Shewell held the hand that ha 1 been put out, shook it, pressed it. He tried to press Captain Debney for ward, but the other draw back to the gangway. "Pull yourself together, Dick, or there'll be a mess,"said She well softly. "My God, how could you do it?" re plied the brother, aghast. Meanwhile the anchor had bsen raised and the Hornet was moving toward the harbor mouth. "You have ruined us both," said Richard Da bney. "Neither, Dick! I'll save your bacon." He made a sign, the gangway was closed; he gave the word for full steam ahead, and the Hornet beiran to race through the water before Cap tain Dabney ffiiessed his purpose. "What do you mean to do?" lie asked sternly, as he saw his own gig falling astern. "To make it hard for you to blow me to pieces. You've got to do it, of course, if you can; but I must get a start." "How far do you intend taking me?' ' "As far as the Farilones, perhaps." Richard Debney's face had a sick look. "Take me to your cabin," ho whispered. What was said behind the closed door no man in this world knows, and it is as well not to listen too closely to those who part, know ing they will never meet again. They had been children in one mother's arms; there was nothing sin common between them now except the old love. Nearing the Farilones, Captain Debney was put oft in .an open boat. Standing there alone, he was once more a naval officer, and h called out sternly: "Sir, I hope to sink you and your smuggling cxaft within four-and-twenty hours!" Captain Shewell spoke no word, but saluted slowly, deliberately, and watched his brother's boat recede till it was a speck upon the sea as it moved toward Golden Gate. "Good old Dick:" he sard at last, as he turned away toward the bridge, "and he'll do it if he can. " But he never did, for as the Cormo rant cleared the harbor that evening, there came an accident to her ma chinery, and with two day's start, the Hornet was on her way to be sold again to a Sonth American republic. And Edward Debney, once her cap tain? What does it matter? His mother believes him dead let us do the same. How Fnakei Move ho 1 Climb. A snake moves by means of his ribs and the strong scales of the abdomen, to which the several ribs are attached by a series of short stout muscles. These scales take hold of the surface over which the reptile may be passing, and aid the creature in gliding along. In this manner they climb trees, of ten with great agility, either ascend ing spirally or climbing straight up the trunk, but in the latter case a rough-barked tree is always necessary.
