FORTUNE'S KNOCK. They say that Fortune knocks at a Aman's door but once, and if he toesn't hear, and rise up and let her hl li, sho never troubles him again. 1 Whether it is always so or not, I ao s hot know, but I have seen more than ode man who has "missed his ohance" in life, as the saying is, and has been stranded on a lee-shore ever a lince in consequence. One of these was Sam Truefelt, an ild shipmate of mine, who sailed al along with me in several vessels, the Black Swan especially. He and I w slung our hammocks in her fo'castle a three voyages running, and might have done so for years if it hadn't d been that the Swan was wrecked just d as she was getting home from that third trip, on Margetson's Point, at A the mouth of Seaville harbor. Most of us were Seaville boys, and ii we went home to dry our clothes at- P ter the coa3t-guard had rescued us U from the Swan's deck. If Captain Peterson hadn't been so terribly anx- a lous to get home that night, and not tried to run inside in a northeast Jale, it never would have happened. But that's neither here nor there. What I am going to tell you about was how Sam Truefelt missed his chance, and _it came about ih this 9' way: ft Sam was considerably older than ti me. He was an A. B. long before 1 t rst sneaked aboard the old Casco g and got toor to sea as a stowaway, from that working my way up along till I'm captain. So Sam sailed in the old brig Dreadnaught, which h same was broke up while I was still a lad, and he sailed more than one voyage in her, too. Captain Bromley commanded the Dreadnaught, and old sailors tell dreadful stories about his brutality, and about the general wickedness of d his crews. He couldn't get none but the worst men to ship with him and Ll more than once had to drive 'em into the fo'castle at the point of his re. volver an' keep 'em there till they'd t sleep off the liquor they got hold of. U For there was always liquor on tal a aboard the brig, and the crew would I ,et at it occasionally. Sam was a young rellow and he was wild. His first trip on the Dread. naught came pretty near being the ruination of him and by the time he'd gone twice with Captain Bromley he''d got regular tough. That voyage things went worse than ever and part . )f the crew mutined. Of course they failed in ther at. tempt and, in some way, one man a was killed. Ielf-defence" was what the captain called it, but he had a pretty full crew and one man-es. pecially a troublesome one-wouldn't be missed Sam was. proved to be one of the ringleaders of the mutiny and the captain swore he'd punish b him so that he'd be sure to remem And sure enough he did, for he marooned the poor fellow on an island at which they touched for water. The Dreadnaught was bound for the b Cape of Good Hope, and the capta~n promised to touch for him when theya came hack, "providing," as the old man said drily, "he'd got enough ofa Sby that time." WelL it wasn't much or an island, t) hut there was enough to eat and the Dreadnaught wouldn't be gone more than two weeks or so, and Sam reck oned he could stand it. He was rid b: of the brig anyway, and of her otti- d cers and men, and for a dpell he ti, really hoped that they wouldn't come E back for him, for he'd begun to see a where his wild cou.se was leading f him. After a while, however, he found st ;he loneliness well-nigh unbearable, i And he began to count the days till fu the brig snould come back. For the silence on that island, which wasn't n< much more than a coral reef, was *C rwful. l The island was one of the Bahamas ~-a turtle island, as seafaring people tall them-and there was little possi- s1 bility of any other vessel appearing h to deliver him from his captivity. C Nqevertheless, he kept a signal flying e from the highest portion of the place, and even thought seriously of light. ig a beacon lire by night. When he'd been a little over a ,nonth on the reef a heavy gale came up, lasting two days and nights and y my! how it did blow! The morning b athe third day, the storm be'ng aroken,, when the sun rose the iignt revealed, not half a mile from the ~ shore and running head on, a trim E little schooner, under bare poles. "Lucky it got light just as it did," a thinks Sam. "If it hadn't, them fel. al iers would have run ashore." But as minute after minute passed w and the vessel didn't change its ta course, only yawing now and then as though the helmsman was steerinu unsteadily, Sam began to think tha~t st something must be wrong aboard the fil strange schooner. Hot a moving oh ject appeared upon the deck and it t wasn't long before the Crusoe realized H that she was abandoned. at There didn't appear to be anything the matter with the craft, but there she was, sailing straight on to the island, without a hand to guide her. Sam ran down to the shore, b* kicked oti his boots and outer cloth- tl ing, and plunging right through the surf, struck out for the schooner. She was approaching the island slowly, for there wasn't a thread of st sail spread, and he had taken the ' desperate chance of swimming out and saving the vessel from destruc Lion. b< He was a strong swimmer and It tt spite of the waves, which were run- - ning pretty high after the blow. he got to the schooner, caught her fore. :hains, sand clambered aboard. WVhen he had brought the schoonei about and she lay head to the wind and was dIritting but slowly, he made an examination of her condi tion. Her bulwarks were smashed some and all her deck lumber carried away; .but the hatches had been bat. tened down and she'd shipped little water tbelow. The crew must have been neediessly frightened arnd abandoned the schooner in their ter ror, for upon souinding the pumps Sam found that the hold was almost try. In the forecastle were the ham: inocks and ches.ts of three men and ps near as he could tell two others 2 had occupied the cabin. Five men 2 were an ample crew Ior the little C schooner, and upon examination Sam rane tat there wer nrrisons iD0 as pantry to last a Conidefkble voy Ce. The cabin itself was packed al. tost full with boxes which proved > contain cigars and liquors. The Aid, when he went below, held the unie sort of cargo. It didn't take uch guess-work to understand the booner's business. She was from avana, doubtless bound for the nited States, and undoubtedly iose goods were never meant to pay; duty. The schooner was a smwu er. "Well, the rightful owner having )andoned he, the vessel, whicb as called the Bonaventure, was )thing but a derelict and Sam saw once that there was money to be ade out of her. The cargo was )ubtless very valuable and all he ad to do was to sail her into some merical port and demand salvage. itb the stiff breeze that was blow g, he could do that In a few days, roviding the weather didn't ohange. ad that wasn't liely. Sam could navigate atter a fashion, id he didn't hesitate none to speak . He was glad enough to leave at island in anything, so he set hat sails he could and bore away to is northward. The weather remained fair for iree days and Sam spoke a vessel )ing south and got his exact bear gs. The little Bonaventure sailed ke a fairy and he was just about ckled to death over the fact of hit >od fortune. According to his be ef, he would be a rich man for lifE hen he got his salvage, and he asn't far from right. The pace began to tell on him, wever. He could only obtain lit, e cat-naps and he was fairly sick >r want of sleep. But he kept up ad all might have gone well if it adn't been for that cursed liquo: hoard. Sam bad got a taste for the stul ring his two voages in the Dread aught, although he had never )u. hed it before, and having so uch of it lying around. handy was o great a temptation. Then, he tade himself believe that If he took little it would help to brace him p for the remainder of the trip. Well, he broke into a box and optied one bottle and that settled There might as well have beel obody aboard the Bonaventure af ter iat, for he was too hazy to know bat he was about. He drank eeply o' the potent stuff and finally ,aned up against the rail and went ist asleep letting the schooner sal! i she pleased. And that night she please to run ross the bow of a big ocean steam up and the larger vessel cut hey wn to the water's edge. It was only by a merciful Provi nce that Sam was saved, but he ianaged to cling to a spar till morn. ig and was then picked up by a ark bound for New York. But the onaventure, with her valuable irgo, was a complete loss and so am steD;ed ashore in New York as oor as ever.

The editor h: Instructed his Washington correspor ent upon three points only-one, th it was desired that the corresponde should write the whole account himse so that it could be consecutive, sy: pathetic and free from the raggedne which is inevitable when two or thr men are engaged in preparing a lengt report Next, the editor wanted it p upon the wire sheet by sheet; last all, he was anxious to have it compli in the home office by 10 o'clock at nig] Mr. Raymond's achievement did x compare eltlger with endurance or swi ness of work with what this cori spondent must do if he were to mi the requests of his managing editor. The Jail where Gulteau was to hanged was three miles from the te graph office.
