CHAPTER XIIICONTIN ED
Mr Morton slowly paced the saloonwith his hands behind his back andhis head bent forward as in deepcontemplation In a short time MrRockwell returned He gave Mr
a questioning look In responseMr Morton shook his head gloomily but said not a word His com-panion showed no surprise nor didhe evince much disappointment LikeMr Kent he saw no hqpe for immediate relief and had resigned himself to aWhit results He selecte-da book from the shelves and readquietly until dinner was announced
Dinner was served at six oclockThe weight of entertaining fell 6n-
Pfestor and Vincent While the tatter gentleman had not yet been ableto attract the attention of Mr Carmody he was satisfied that he wouldhave an abundance of time in whiohto explain his plans Mr Mortonhad acquainted his associates withthe failure which thus far had attended his negotiations He yet heldout hope but It was faint Whencoffee had been served Hestor aroseand said
Gentlemen we are now not farfrom Cape Cod During the evening T-
am going to send a man ashpie withletters You will find stationery inyour staterooms I suppose that allof you send word assuringyour families and that youare alive and well You can do sobut you must not enter intQ any particulars about this outing You canInform those in whom you are concerned that you are safe that youwill return to them after a reasonablelength of time or you may make anyother statement not connected withbusiness or with your present whereabouts Hand me the letters unsealed and I will examine them andhave them mailed during the night-I should have all of them in my pos-session before nine oclock
about me asked Mr Vin-cent
You are included said Mr Hestor
There was no hesitancy in accepting this invitation The thought thatthey could speedily communicatewith their loved ones lifted a greatload from their minds For an hourHestor acted as censor on these letters He mode but few changes andthese of cowse rendered it necessary to rewrite the rejected letters-In the meantime the yacht hadrounded Cape Cod and dropped intotIle quiet waters of the bay
Shortly after nine oclock thedinghy was out on her davitsand lowered into the water A youngman in a business suit such as wornfor everyday service by the averagecitizen acted as mail carrier Propelled by the sturdy arms of a sailor the little craft disappeared inthe darkness Two miles away tilelights of Provincetown flickered inthe distance
At about one oclock in the morning when most of the passengerswere asleep the dinglTy made anoth-er trip ashore and returned withoutthe mail messenger He was landednears Boston and on the followingmorning made a rapid journey toSpringfield Mass and Albanythence to New York city and Brooklyn reaching Philadelphia late thatnight In these cities he posted theletters which as has been told werereceived with so much joy The nextday he left Philadelphia for CapeMay late that night a boat camein from the ocean and anhour laterhe was on board the Shark
From the time the san dunes ofCape Cod faded away in he nightuntil six days had passed the passengers and crew of the Sharkcaught no sight of land Manywere sighted but Capt Waters sodirected the course of the yacht thatnone came within Kignalling diatanceand generally remained hull downon the horizon
It was cloudy most of the timesand by the temperature alone wasit surely known that a southerlycourse was being taken Thursdaynight was uncomfortably warm andthe following day when the sun cameout from behind the clouds theshade from the awnings was foundgrateful On Friday the signs thatthe tropics had been entered wereunmistakable
When Mr Pence awoke about threeoclock Tuesday morning he was
alarmed He was certain thatsomething serious had happened Anunearthly silence prevailed The en-gines had stopped and for thefaint buzz of the electrical machin-ery there was no sound on theShark The bOOt had lost all mo-
tion It no longer rose and fell tothe heaving of the seas
Mr Pence hurriedly dressed andwent on deck A seaman was jmcr-ing back and forth on the after-deck Mr Pence looked out over tbport side of the yacht A huge wallof rock to j almost over hishead in ftmjight of the nascentmoon the Snark seemed to restin the center of a vast amphitheaterof beetling rocks and crags Hereand there he oould make out thform of palm and to his earscame the distinct sound of fallingwater as of a cascade To the eastthe cliffs threw a long shadow overthe lake in which tie yacht was ancho a The moo had just acalii

Youre right he said I see himHes a big un observed the captain as he handed back the glasses-
If you want to watch some funcome up forward gentlemen he almost shouted Hurry up the bom-bardment is about to begin Comealong Mr Morton I will show yousome sport for your livesHestors excitement was contagious
Look over on the bank theresaid Hestor Do you see somethingthat looks like a log
I do said Mr Kent Mr Morton also made it out as did mostof the party i
Its a gator an alligator anda whopper said Hestor I wont doa thing to him
HestOr sprang to a polished pieceof machinery and dropped behind aslanting steel guard a marinestood by the side of this bit ofmechanism which was recognized ata glance as a rapidfire Hotchkissgun Mr Pence gave it one look andretreated behind the deckhouse MrMorton and the others looked onwith keen interest

Hestor jumped back from the gunHe took one look through the gaseous from the weapon threwhis cap in the air danced

During this incident and in all thehappenings of this eventful day Hes-ter conducted himself as if the ar-rival and landing on this spot wasan ordinary event which had beenpleasantly anticipated by all on thej

It may seem like egotism to callthis Hestoria he said as theywere seated at the breakfast tablebut I practically discovered the
place and in common with manyother explorers gave it my nameIf you gentlemen do not like thename you can call it Havens Havenor Rockwells Reef or VincentsLand or anything you choose Itsvarious topographical features areas yet not fully explored and areunnamed going to suggestthat we honor Mr Morton by giv-
ing his name to this beautiful bodyof water we are now on We willcall it Mortons Bay
Thank you said Mr Morton Iappreciate and accept the honor
I have some surprises in store foryou said Hestor when the meal wasfinished We will go ashore directlyand look on something more attractive than dead alligators or croco-diles as Sidney insists on callingthem Ah Capt Waters has the tideturned sufficiently to make a land-ing
There is now 14 foot of waterat the landing was Capt Watersanswer We will have the gang plankoh shore in ten minutes
The panorama unrolled before thegaze of the voyagers on board theShark as she slowly headed for a
shelving rock was one of surpassing beauty Imagine a pearshapedlake about a mile at its greatestwidth and a mile 3nd a half in lengthwalled in by rocks and crags whoserugged slopes were by thesplendid foliage of the tropics Nature in some fantastic mood hadcreated this spot and then as if appalled at her work had wreathed itwith flowers and chastened its outlines with the harmony of fern vineand palm The narrow inlet leading-to the ocean was guarded by twogreat rocks which seemed to over-hang and threaten the intrepid sailorwho dared explore and ravish thebeauties which nestled within Theserocks were fully 400 feet in heightand unlike those surrounding thelake were free from tree or verdure Through the portal thusformed the ocean with its deep andglorious blue showed in contrast tothe dark background of these cragsThe surge of the sea came wellingthrough this gate but soon lost itspower and on the further shores of-
i the lake its ripples came as but-I the flutter of the deep breathing ofthe sea
The shores were lined with boulders which had tumbled down fromcrag and peak At intervals therewere grassy stretches of meadowdeep enough to form a foreground-to the darker beauties of cliff or Tarvine Here and there a brook trickledfrom the heights or found its tortuous way through unknown dellsAnd everywhere a lavish profusionof flowers The base of one cliffwas aflame with the red of someflower the name of which was unknown to any of the party To addto this riot of color there wereflocks of parrots of many and bril-
liant hues while of humming andmocking birds there seemed to bemillions Overhead an eagle circled-on Jieavy pinions and the waters ofthe lake were dotted with flocks ofwater fowl
About a thousand feet from thesouthern shore of this sheet of wa
Hestor had named Mortons Bay was a small island Itwas a gem of an island Basalticrocks reached up from the liquiddepths of the bay and its northernend was a crag probably 100 feetabove the surface of the lake Tothe west it sloped gradually downand at low tide there was a sandbar It was on the inner edge ofthis bar that Hestor had sighted thecrocodile Tall slender cocoa palms
with their crowns of graceful leavesnodded in the morning breeze Cau
camphor and dragon trees addedtheir beauty to this tropical bouquet The base of the rocks was hidden in giant pond lilies ivy andother climbing plants which fes-tooned the sides of the cliffs as ifstruggJing to join the masses offlowers which the rocksabove
But the water had treasures notless beautiful At a depth of 50 or60 feet the bottom of the lake wasclearly visible Looking over thesides of the yacht the voyagerswho were nov approaching theshore saw swarms of fish whosesides reflected the colors of the rain-bow
Color is born in the tropics Itdies atthe poles In the chill of theaxial antipodes black and whitealone survive In the warmth of thetropics all objects animate arid in-
animate vie with each other to outrival the imagination the artistand blunt the pen of the writer
It looks like a big aquarium dontit said L Sylvester Vincent as hegazed the water Look at thefish under those rocks Ill betthose are angel fish I saw some justlike them at the aquarium down atthe Battery in New York Say butthere are some beauties down thereIt looks as if it had been built forthem The rocks are covered withmoss and there is a tunnel justlike I saw in the aquarium Ithought-at the time that the fish in NewYork had a pretty soft snap butthese fellows here have them beatin a walk I wonder if theyre good

EARRINGS WORN FOR
All Oraameata Woa by HKBUMBeluga They Are Oldest Re-
corded la History
Although few women in recent yearshave been wearing earringsion still survives and at functions ofselect society pendants of brilliantsare still frequently Of all tkfornaments used by human beings
are probably the oldest so far shistorical research has been able todetermine date from the remotest antiquity the earliestmention ofthem being in Genesis in the time oJacob about 1732 B C This antiquityhas been confirmed by the finding offcostly and elaborate specimens in
by Dr Schliemann in Etruriaby Castellan and in AngloSaxon
in England Their use at firstwas not ornamental butsuperstitiousstates the Chicago Chronicle
Amulets consisting of inscribedprecious stones of metal werewornsuspended the neckfrequently from the ears Augustinespeaks strongly against earrings wornas amulets in his time It is a note-worthy fact that the ears of thestatue Venus de Medici are bored evi-dently for earrings
The fashion of men wearing ear-rings which is still common inamong the fishermen ofEngland with Portuguese sailors andmany others is a survival of the super-stition that they were a protectionsagainst evil Many of the Italians imNew York wear earrings for this
CURLING AND HURLING
Been Played
Curling the game that was for Along time furtively indulged inby a few braw laddies has beenplaced on a substantial footing withnumerous teams 1
wellcontested tournaments v
has been wrested from the mo-nopoly of a few professionals and today a handball court is a popularfeature of every wellequipped
club Discus throwing that theGrecian youths excelled in at tIleOlympian games has recently becomea regular scheduled feature of alEbig athletic meetings More recent-ly the royal and ancient game of golfhas been transplanted from the hillsof Scotland to the heights of c
Hudson where it languished for j
years under the popular suspicion that it was merely a gamecunningly devised to lure gouty oldimen into Jtaking muchneeded exer-cise Then it began to grow in
favor until today tees andputting greens dot the country almost as thickly as baseball fields and
15000000 is spent for golfingimplements says the Brooklyn Eagle
But hurling is far more ancientthan any of these The Scotchmanproud of the antiquity of golfto the timestained documents
