There was a lioreo competition on Pu}>el

lie was a good mechanic, and kept
the machinery in as good working order
as il was possible to keep it.
The Occident's engine was probably
Mm most eomplieated and unt runt worthy
pn.ee of machinery alloat. Sometimes
the .steamer would make excellent time,
uisily distancing any steamer on the

(lur orders were to make time at all
ha/.anls. The traveling public on Puget
i nv't \UV\?* in t\\iinn days fur
safety, tu.d a great deal for arriving at
their destination in the shortest possible

The ('aptain knew every foot of the

t lie Occident lo her desl itinl ion. Years

The purser was a young man w ho had

energetic, wide awake, red bailed am!

made him a great favorite on thr

The steamers of both lines left tie

Starr growled a little at baring the <
DgiDe-roum "littered up with passen- <

"Oh, we can't be particulat these c

"Yes, Billy has polished her up pretty <

"Well, do your best, hoys, to get her
through on time," said the Captaintj
walking slowly uway, coughing as he
went.
Promptly at the hour the start was
made. The complicated old engine
creaked and strained ns its many parts
were put in motion. Starr handled the
engine. I stood l?y ready to give assistance.
When we were olT. I never saw the
Occident engine work more smoothly.
With n good pressure of steam, the Tarioiih
parts click-clacked merrily, and the

during the whole tri|> when either Starr
or myself was not w itching that engine.
"I'lease, air, how soon before wo got
there?"
The little girl was fast asleep, but the
boy was sitting bolt upright. They were
healthy-looking ehfldreu, poorly but
neatly dressed?the little girl very pretty,
with a tangle of brown curls about
her flushed fa? e as she lay asleep in the
corner.
"Where are you going?" I asked.
"To Seattle, and we want to get there
awful ipiick, if you please, sir."
"What's your hurry?"! asked, amused
at the boy's earnestness.
"Mother hasn't seen Ally and me for
more than four months!" said he, coudent
ly.
"How's that?" I asked.
"Why, you see, father and mother
moved up to Seattle and left us with
gmwdimv tilt they got settled. We wore
jpung by the other line."
"Were you, indeed! And what
ebnnged your minds?"
"Oh, the purser met grandma on the
doc k, and said he'd take eare of us, and
he just kind of run us oil this boat. It's
a good boat, isn't it?"
I smiled, knowing If'irry" Watkius's
way of picking up passengers.
"And who's to meet you in Seattle?" J
"Oil, mother. She's expecting us, uad

her last letter she was 'most cra/.y to
see me ami Ally. My father he's got a
job at fishing on the Sound. He's a

The hoy stretched out his anna to
their utmost extent.

over the luilf-dcor.
"Of all the nights I ever sow on the

"Iley! but we're stepping otT lively tonight,

"Yes, she's doing pretty well tonight,"
1 said, "but there's no telling (
how loug it will last. She's very uncertain."
"Well, I'll rcliovo you of these children

"I wouldn't like to have anything

glanced out, I ?m startisd to hear ?|?cculiar
roar, which I knew did not coiire
from any part of our steamer. Almost
at. the same moment, right on our portquarter
aft, there appeared a great luminous
glare through tbo fog. At the
tame time the blast of a steam whistle
sounded, and following it,' a scream of
terror on our l>oat, mad a muifle.l shou'
out of tho fog.
Before I had time to use Uiu speak in/
tube, the quick, sharp claug uf the gou
sounded, giving the signal to go ahead
followed immediately by the full-s|>ocd
bell.
I sprang to the starting bar, but in\
heart sunk like lead as 1 went. In :
moment mv worst fears here realize
tho engine would not inova. Frantically
1 strove to stnrt it, but /without avail.
Again and again came thl sharp, impatient
clung of tlic gong, and 1 heard
once more the sercatn or terror.
V knew that ?/ that engine could lie

prevented, but in spite of all my efforts,
it remained immovable.
Just then Starr, aroused by the. stopping
of tho engine an 1 the cnmmotiun,
rushed hnlf-dressed into the engineroom.
1 saw him seize n large wrench,
and run forward among the works, and I
ucver saw him again.
The noxt moment came a grinding
crash. Tho Occident heele 1 sharply over
to the starboard. The bow of the Navigation
Company's steamer, which had overhauled
us while we were running at halfspeed,
struck us ou tho port-quarter aft
of the paddle-box, aud cut through the
guard deep into the hull of the Occident.
Amid the crashing timbers, and tho
clouds of steam escaping from a broken
pipe, Harry Watkins came bounding into
the eugino room.
"Billy," ho shouted, "I must look
after thp?o clrildfcu.' promised to!"
lie snatched up the little girl, who bad
awakened and was crying loudly.
The Occident would probably sink in
a few minutes, for there was a hole in
her side through which tho water was
rushing with frightful speed. It had already
readied the furnace fires.
Borne life-preservers hung in the engine
room. These I seized, aud throwing
two to Watkins, buckled one upon
myself and another on the boy.
I looked around fot Starr, but could

Seeing tlirtt I could bo of no further
line in tile engine room, I followed Watkins,
who, carrying tho girl and leading
the boy, was stumbling to the starboard
gangway.
In the meantime tho matos and crew
were occupied iu getting out tho boats, j
which were few and almost useless.
Tho frutoiteued Chinamen wero quiet
alter tho lllst shock, and patiently subThe
stcam^with which wo had collided
had drifted away in tho fog, but
her shrill whistle could be heard uot far
away.
As Waikins reached tho rail of the
sinking steamer, a boat in charge of the
second mate, full of jiassengers, was just
pushing olT.
'Mump in, Watkins I" cried the officer. I
"lb-re, take these children I" sai-1 the
imrscr.
"Can't?hardly room for one," said
the man. While lie spoke, the men In
the I) nit, fearing she would he overloaded,
pushed ofT.
The Ocjideut was sinking rapidly. It
was plain she could lloat but a few moments
longer.
" \Yo must jump iuto the water, ami
try to get its far away from the wreck as
possible," I saiil. 'The boats from the
other steamer may pick us up.'*
We made our vvat^ to the stent, as that

"Mere, Watkins, let me take care of
the Itov!'' said I. "You can't look after
thciu both "
"tVU right, Billy, Don't lose him.
Their mother is waiting at Seattle for
them, and 1 promised to sec them safe
there."
I grasped the boy by the hand, a;,d
holding mot last, jumped iuto the chilling
waters of the Sound. Watkins, holding
the little girl in his arms, followed
immcdiatclv after tuc.
We all lose n.ar together, and drifted i
rapidly away from the wreck. So dense
was the fog that, in n few moments, we
ost sight of everything, although we
'ould plainly hear the cries and screams
tf the drowning people.
Presently Watkins exclaimed: "Billy,

T saw that the life preserver he had

loss of her husband, and of joy that he
had not left her penniless. She had re- j

And there isn't a state or

the risk to give your money'
