P.Cranch, in Scribner. PURSER WATKIN& A PK1ZE STOIIY. i Tlierc tvas a fierce competition oil Pupet Sound between two rival lines or steamers. Fcr a long time one company had controlled the tratlic between Victoria and Tacotna, but when sonic enterprising incu started an opposition line, there was a sharp struggle between the two. I obtained a position as assistant engineer on one of these opposition boats. She was a steamer culled the Occident, brought from San Francisco, where she had been used about the Bay. Starr, lie was agrim, elderly man, who never spoke unless he was addressed, and thou replied in the fewest words possible. lie was a good mechanic, and kept the machinery in as good working orderas it was possible to keep it. The Occident's engine was probably the most complicated aud untrustworthy piece of machinery afloat. Sometimes the steamer would make excellent time, ( easily distancing any steamer ou the Sofiud. At other times she could, only with the greatest difficulty, be made to move at the rate of eight miles an hour. * Miiiuiiniy rue trip irom victoria to Taconin. touching at Port Townscud aud Seattle, occupied about twouty hours; Konit'times we would do it in seventeen, and again we would be twenty-five or thirty hours on the trip. Once, to our great chagrin, we were foity hours on the way. Our orders were to make time at all hazards. The traveling public on Paget Sound civrett little in tVioau days for safety, at.d a great deal for arriving at their destination in the shortest possible time. The Captain knew every foot of the Sound by day or night, lie never tied up for storm, fog or darkness, but drove the Occident to her destination. Yens 1 of exposure to the rains and fog bad given him a disease of the Inngs. Often lie stood in the pilot-house all night when lie shcti d have bccu in bed, hut ho had a fan ily dependent upon him, and must her,) going. The purser was a young man who had been educated to the business on the Columbia ilivcr. lie was bright, dapper, energetic, wide-awake, red-haired and rcd-mousiached. Ilia obliging disposition made him a great favorite on the Sound. He was, too, always looking out for the interests of his employers, i The btcijDici'a of hotii hues lelt the fares and freights "to a very low figure, nnd the rush of business was tremendous. Our lower deck was crowded at every triplwith freight and Chinamen, while every shite room was occupied, nnc Hie saloon tloor often covered with matt rcsses. As the-hour for departure approached, there were crowds shouting, pushing and' struggling on the docks; freight wits being rupidjy. run on hoard, and carriages and wagons were in seemingly inextricable contusion. t *1 x/ii ir.vMj occasions Harry "Watkins, our purser, seemed to bo everywhere at once, securing business for his boat by menus that were extraordinary and ofter comical. < hie evcniug we lay at Tacoma, pre paring for the trip north. The hour ol starting was ten o'clock, and it lacked but twenty minutes of the time. Oui trip down lracl been the fastest on record; we had distanced our competitor bj more Than foiiv hours, and taken tin crcffhr of the business ul l'ort Townsenc and Seattle. ! J was in good spirits, and even Georg< Starr's grim face relaxed a little when h< looked over the machinery, which, aftei hard work, we had succeeded in getting into passable shape. "If wo don't beat our own record this dip," I said, clambering down aftei making some complicated repairs, "I'm 1 mistaken very much." "Don't be too sure," said Starr. Having a few moments to spare, ' ' went to the gangway of the boat nno glanced out. It was a cold, dripping ' night. The fog was so dense that th< f lanterns on the dock made little points 1 of yellow light, revealing nothing. 1 Trucks loaded with freight were com- 11 ing down the gang-plank with a crash ' ind a rattle. c 1 was just turning away when Ilarrj v A'atkins came sliding down the gang r* AM UUV Ukl? ?1V WTII If* I t% ^ If 111^ ** girl, while with his other hand he dragged i boy about nine years old. tl "Ifadn't time to go around by tin inssongcr gangway," lie said, breath it icssly. "Ilere, Billy," as he caught o< ight of me, "stow tlic.se kids about tin ngine room somewhere whore it's warm. w i'hey'ic 'most frozen, poor little things!

'I lie little giri, who was about foui -pi ears old, was trembling violently from ftrT )!d and excitement. I made my way j)C in fully among the piles of freight and owds of Chinamen that blocked the ^Cl nin deck to the engine-room, through .miriow passage piled high with freight. rot The engine-room was a comfortablt nee. '1 lure was a broad cushioned ,IO( at across the end. j|,c As I eume in, the Captain was leaning rcr one of the half-doors that opened j j to the side passages, talking with the lief-cngineer. Ho was on his way to caf 4 pilot-house to spend the long, cold, ?n. ct night there. No one else on hoard in capable of running the Occident iu ? cli a fog as this. His glistening eyes, 9t?l Mow cheeks and harsh, hacking cough ! for d plainly enough that he should have 1 CRI11 n in his bed rather than in the pilot- ^ ise. [ placed the little girl in one corner of mac cushioned seat, and told tho boy to not ub up beside her, and keep perfectly surc et. ' df tl \ " -v> _ ? Starr growled a little at having the of engine-room littered up with paasen- oei gers." 'Oh, wo can't be particulat these c0, times," said the Captain. ''There's no ^ part of the boat where Watkins wouldn't <}c stow people for the sake of getting business. I hope we'll make as good time sig us we did comiug down." mm "There's no depending on that ma- gu chine," said Starr. She looks pretty well now.*' MkMftB W Captain. v *3^* wl 'Yes, Billy has polished her np pretty * bright." But he shook his head aa he poke. . . ci "Well, do your best, hoys, to get her through on time," said the Captain,| ^ walking slowly away, coughing as he, . went. a Promptly at the hour the start was ^ made. The complicated old engine, j\ creaked and strained as its many parts gQ were put in motion. Starr handled tho engine. I stood by ready to give assist-, ance. When we were off, I never saw the ^ Occident engine work more smoothly.., With a good pressure of steam, the various pnrts click-clacked merrily, and tho ^ boat moved abend at a good rate. I stood tho first watch. Before Starr . retired, he went to look for the Naviga1 tion Company's boat, but returned aud said that lie coul'l not seen teu feet from j g the guard. About half an hour afterward I sat down upon the broad, cuskioued seat on tjertrto the boy, keeping tnj eye upon the engine. There were not many momenta during the whole trip when cither Starr or myself was uot witching that engine. J^r "Please, sir, how soon before we get there?" p| The little girl was fast asleep, but the ru boy was sittiug bolt upright. They were ro healthy-looking children, poorly but ^ neatly dressed?the little girl very pret- nc ty, with a tangle of brown curls about her flushed face :i3 she lay asleep in the cr corner. "Where nre you going?" I nsked. tit "To Seattle, aud \vc want to get there ha awful quick, if you please, sir." sp "What's your liurry?"I asked, amused of at the boy's earnestness. gu "Mother hasn't seen Ally aud me for de more than four months!" said he, con- ' dently. c\* "How's that?" I asked. pi "Why, you see, father and mother th moved up to Seattle und left us with grandma till they got settled. Wo wore afl gotug by tlio other line." "Were you, indeed! And what av chaugcd your minds?" "Oh, the purser met grandma on the a dock, nnd said he'd take care of us, and lit he just kind of run us on this boat. It's ru a good boat, isn't it?" re I smiled, knowing Harry Watkins's way of picking up passengers. gi "And who's to meet you in Seattle?" "Oh, mother. She's expcctiug us, and won't be far off, I guess. She said in qc lier last letter she was 'most crazy to see me and Ally. 5Iy father he's got a job at fishing on the Sound. He's a j.; great fisherman. He's caught salmon so . Tbo boy stretched out his arms to their utmost exteut. Just then Harry Watkius looked in over the hnlf-dcor.

"All right," said he, "I'll just make rpjf0j a pillow for the little girl, nm> settle the tj)Cn boy right." theri He opened the door and came in. In j a few minutes lie had arranged a very j)0|(i comfortable bed for both. , "Oh, I'm used to it," he said. "I'm ( the oldest of a family of nine.

Almost the same moment, right on our port- { larter aft, there appeared a great lumi>us glare through tbo fog. At the 1 uia time the blast of a steam whistle ( uuded, and following it,' a scream o( 1 rror on our boat, aud a muffled shou* it of tho fog.

I saw him seize n large wrench, d run forward among tho works, and I vcr saw him again. The next moment came a grinding ash. The Occident heeled sharply over 1 the starboard. The bow of the Nnviga >n Compauy's steamer, which hail overlulcd ua while we were running nthalfeed, struck us on the port-quarter aft the paddle-box, and cut through the lard deep into the hull of the Ofcciint. Amid the crashing timbers, and tho " luds of steam escaping from a broken pe, Harry Watkins came bounding into 6 e engine room. Billy," he shouted, ' ! must look J tcr. th<??o children- ^iTomised^o!" He snatched up the little girl, who bad rakencd and was crying loudly. The Occident would probably sink in r few luiuuies, for there was a hole in | ;r 8ide through which tho water was shing with frightful speed. Ithadalady reached the furnace fires. ; Some life-preservers hung in the cnne room. These I seized, and throwg two to Watkins, buckled one upon yself and auother on the boy. I looked around fot Starr, but could >t see him. He died at hi! post. Seeing that I could be of no further e in tho engine room, I followed Watns, who, carrying tho girl and leading c boy, was stumbling to the starboard ngway.

I hoard lately of a pathetic case or onelincss which comes to a stranger in i strange land, when suddenly deprived }f a life-long companion, under the most painful circumstances of doubt and mystery. The wife of a Frenchman employed is a designer in one of our great tex tile manufactories missed her husband, apon whom she was dependent for support. Weeks passed away, ami as he wa9 known to have money on his person it was feared he had met, as the rcportsrs say, with foul play. At last his body was found floatiug near one of the britigea nn Charles Iliver. Upon it was discoverer i $2500 which the Frenchman had secreted in his clothing as a safer place than a saviugs bank or deposit vault, and suspicions that lie was murdered for his money wcie abated by the discovery. As for the widow, she was a vietim r?f conflicting emotions?of grief for the loss of her husband, nud of joy that ho had not left her penniless. She had resolved to remain in this country till he was found dead or alive, but now she means to go back to France and open a little shop in Paris, where she has friends.?Boston Post.

One has reputation?another has not. One has confidence, born of sue* cess ? another has only w hopes." Don't ?take it for granted that all patent medicines are alike. They are not. Let the years of -uninterrupted success and the tens of thousands t>f cured and happy men and women, place Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription on the side of the comparison they belong. And there isn't a state or territory, no ? nor hardly a country in the world, whether its people realize it or not, but have men and women in them thatre happier because of their discovery and their effects. Think of this in health. Think of it in sickness. And then think whether you can afford to make the trial iT the makers can afford to take? the risk to give your money/ back as they do if they do1 not benefit or cure you. ''S> y|s?|?
