"so you've come for that story. ey?" It was my old friend Captain Cummings, skipper of the Red Ar- row, whc'd spoken these words. had just boarded his trim craft which lay anchored in the her- bour at Charlottetown after her long and eventful voyage from the land down under.

The jovial old salt led me at once to his cozy cabin where we drew up seats before a small table that supported a bottle. drinking glass- es, and a lot of cigars.

"Have one," said the skipper. pushing the cigars temptingly under my nose. "You'll find 'cm

okay. I reckon. And in that bottle, is some of Australia's finest bran-

dy - twenty-five years chi and smooth as silk." Here he paused to pull the cork

and pour a couple of stiff d-rinks. Then we lifted them. clicked our glasses gently together. and let the stuff run into our bellies without further ado.

"By the way. Captain," I ven- tured after we'd lighted our smokes. "I'd lilae to get the low down on that - that latest sen yarn of yours - that cne about the whale that made Moby Dick look like a pin-fish."

F:r a long minute Captain Cum- mings looked me straight -in the eye. Then leaning hack ccmfort- ably in his chair. he began his curious narrative.

"The sea contains many mys- teries; strange and curious crea- t1:.re.s that landlubbers never even hear about let alone see. As for myself. I've seen griffons. mer- maids. sea-bishops, and what have you! But: that whale. scn, Ah

what a creature it was! As I al- ready said, it's a powerful strange story, so be sure you do not mis- quote me."

"Writers seldom break a dence." I smiled. "Shoot!"

The Red Arrow was twelve miles from the port of Sydney. I had just left the cabin and joined the male on the lower deck when we heard a terrific noise like the sound of in great waterfall. Just then the mate grabbed my arm

confi-

and shouted, ”I'har she blows! Good heavens. Captain, did you ever see a whale spout such a stream of water?

"Before I could make reply. a great deluge of water descended

on the deck. soaking every man to the slain and causing the ship to sway back and forth till I thought

we were going to Davy Jone:.' locker.-. ”I immediately gave orders:

full speed ahead and in less than ten minutes the Red Arrow had overtaken the cause of all our woe.

"Well, son. it was a sight never- to-be-forgotten. an experience which few have ever lived through.

(ienly it rose high out of the water and with a lightening movement, threw its mighty tail across the deck.

"The Red Arrow trembled bow to stcrli and might easily have been dragged beneath the surface had not the creature pull- ed its tail away in time. I now or- dered th.-it the shin be put to her full speed. but too late. The whale dash-dived to ("me up squarely
