CHAPTER XII (Continned.)

While I was thus thinking ahd de- bating, a boat put off from the pirate

ship and came toward me. Coming tlongside its crew climbed on board

the brig, and judging it best to be civil,

laam and a cordial marhaba, come. I might have saved my pains. Instead of returning my salutation, the leader came forward with drawn sword, demanding to know whether there was any treasure on board, and intimating that if he caught me in a lie my throat would be cut on the spot. I aysured him that I knew of no trea- sure, but invited them to search for themselves, since there might be secret

covered.

“Thou shalt be guide,” said the fel- low, “and, as thou valuest thy life, a true one. the taste of steel.”

I meekly complied, cond .ictirg them faithfully into every corner above and beldw, fae the fear of death gives won- drous fidelity. They examined deliberately as they went along, prob- ing with their sword points into dark recesses and sounding with the hilts the boaris for concealed chambers, sometimes even kicking furiously in their fits of chagrin as time passed and no discovery was made.

in an ugly inclination to hold me re- sponsible for their ill luck. Thev would

spurt out angry questions about the former occupants of the brig, and be-

fore I could reply turn upon me with menaces that more than once fairly brought my heart to my mouth. One fellow, muttering that I was playing the innocent just a little too much, thrust at me _ ferociously s\vvord, saying that if I did net wish to be cut in two I had better make a clean breast of it. Fortunatelv he was not close enough to do damage, and on my answering him, with a fervency that must have carried conviction to the heart of a stone, that I «new no more than he did, he passed on with a@ curse on my stupidity and blindness.

Feeling their way foot by foot and taking nothing for granted, they went over the whole interior of the ship— hold, forecastle, cabin, officers’ quar- ters, and all—questioning, contradict- ing, threatening, and every minute getting more and more frightful with looks of disappointment and rage.

My poor belongings they scattered

like chaff, appropriating what they ecrsidered worth carrying away and effectually disposing of the remainder by cutting and tearing it into shreds and then throwing the rags into the sea. beside mv clothes they tock all

The others followed quickly, and we rowed away, leaving the Bird of Para- dise in a sheet of fiame. Almost in the same moment my company of rats sprang into the water and struck out

gallantly for the shore. In spite of fear I could not help giving them a hearty “ well done,” for farewell. CHAPTER XIII. IN THE HANDS OF THE PIRATES. Immediately on boarding the Arab

set sails, and

flew away to sea, with a smart breeze on our port quarter. The ship was a queer one, but it was soon proved

that, however odd in appearance, she was an uncommonly swift and grace-

ful sailor. She carried three masts, lateen sails, and a jib. The fore and mainmasts were without tops or top-

She carried no colours, nor did any inscription, such as ships usuallv bear, give a hint of her port or na tionality. Finally, though light, she was well armed. (The vessel was the dreaced Xebec, the terror of the hich

seas when Alg still of

Arabia.) Every stitch of her ocherous canvas was crowded on, and beautifully she swept 2clong, keeling and dipping un- der the bellying sails, the bright green water swishing from her gleaming sides and the snowdrift flying from her fore foot in a way that would have made pleasure-seekers dance for joy.

Even I felt the gladness of the rush-

rerine corsairs flourished, evil repute on the coasts

and

of

ing, arrowy motion, though, on the whole, the speed was more ominous

than inspiring, seeing what a doubtful dance might end the trip.

The strain of dark uncertainty was somewhat re.ieved by the diversion of &tudying the crew, who were a living epitome of the fashions, past and cur- rent, of pretty nearly all the nations of the earth. Probably no company cof equal size ever displayed alike variety of costumes. A¢suredly none could beé

It was wonderful how that strange- ly-built ship behaved, how sensitive she was to the gentlest pressure of the helm, how clean, quick and gra eful were all her movements, and how she rushed on her course when she got her head.
