" ' "Yoamnst have leen in some-pretty tight places at different times, Roger. We know what you got the cross forj bat I suppose that the chances were often very nearly as heavy against yon." The man who made this remark was seated opposite his friend before the cheer ful fire in the smoking-room of a London military club. Both had the bronzed face3 and prematurely grizzled bair which be token long sojourns under almost tropical skies. The one who had been addressed as " Roger " was slighly the elder, and upon his broad chest bore the tiny scrap of ribbon that indicated that the wearer had won that most prized of English decora tions, the Victoria Crosa. He did . not re. ply fof a minute or two to his compan ion's words. Apparently they had called up many reminiscences, few of which were agreeable, but at last a smile lighted up his leatures, and he said : - " es. old boy ; I've very often thought my lite wasn't going to last a second long er ; but the most awkward moment I ever ' put in wasn't in the tield." " No Then I presume it was when you were besieged in the Residency during the Mutiny?" . "It wasn't in action at -all." -It was on board ship." " Wreck " - "No. That is. to say, the ship wasn't - wrecked, but I thought I was." " Tell me about it. ' , " Well, I don't mind. It's twenty years ago, and the telling can't hurt any one now. Still, you will understand that the names I shall give you are not the true ones, and you must promise not to try to find out what those were." "All right: I'll be content with the etorv." . . "Here goes, then," said Roger, setting lumself back in his chair. " ft occurred just after we'd finished up the last of those black devils. I had pretty nearly got over the wounds I received in the aiXair for which the Queen gave me the cross, and I reported myself as tit for duty, The colonel. however, bless his old heart! wouldn't hear of it, and insisted on my taking a year's leave. There was no . canal in those days, and the Tleasantest way of going home then and I don't know that it isn't now was one of the fine clipper ships round the Cane. 1 was fortunate enough to get a cabin to myself on . board the Wtnchetert of Greene's line. The purser, Watson, I had met at' some mess dinners in Calcutta, and he promised to make things as pleasant as nosslble. We had verv few nassenzers. mostly invrlld officers, two -er .three the ladies on deck when we sailed, and none of thm Impressed tine as being specially charming. - The captain, whose name was, we 11 sav. John Smith, looked like one of the regular, navy. He wore a uniform and sword, and ws very severe "Of aspect and stiff of bearing. I found out afterward that he was a regular mart! - net. and the half-dozen midshipmen and the minor officers stood in considerable awe of him. On being Introduced he favored .me with a formal grasp of "the band, and jerked out a few words of hav ing neara oi me Dei ore. "We did not begin to, drop down the nver tiu me aay was lainy aavancea, ana I had scarcely cot my traps in order when it was time to dress for dinner. In those days the captain would have been insulted if his passengers did not turn out in full evening toggery. We soldiers were seated t at table in accordance with our rank, and J son my best thanks. I should have at once proceeded to act on his advice, but it occurred to me that it might be as well to sound the captain, and see if he would be willing to perform tne ceremony. You see, I wanted to have everything sure be fore I put my fate to the test. I waited through one day for a favorite opportunity to speak to the captain on deck, but "he never uiyimju me to snare nis waix. so the next morning 1 sent message by his boy, asking if he could spare me a few minutes. The boy speedily returned with a request that I should follow him to the captain's cabin. " I found the: great man sitting at his table looking over a chart. - Somehow or other he appeared to me to be uaosoaUy fomldabl - . .. Good-moraine: Carjtain Hamilton i a said, as he waved me to take a seat. . Can I do anything for you V -"'Well, captain, it's rather a delicate matter, but I wanted to ask yon something V They are absolute, sir, he answered; a little sternly.. 'Why do you ask t Da you want some one' put In irons for insult ing you V ,. , ' " ' Not exactly, captain. The fetters that I would like you to use are of a different kind the matrimonial ones.1 "The devil you say 1' he exclaimed, jumping to his feet, and his face lighting up with a sailor's quick sympathy for a lqve affair. 'So you have lost your heart to one .of my passengers t Pray which is it t' " i - " 1 Well captain,' I answered, I know I can trust you l not to let this go any further at preseit. It is Miss Latimer. " I didn't quite like the look that came over his fate ; Is it possible, 1 thought, that this old sea-dog is a little bit gone in that quarter himself t " He gave me plenty of time to think before he made any verbal comment on my announcement. His first words were : . .... " Pray, sir, have you spoken to the lady on the subject of your hopes ?' . " Not yet, captain.' '"Has she gfcen you any encourage ment to think that the love you feel is re turned by her t' "'No, captain; but- she has been very kind to me, and has talked to me' a great deal, and seemed to like to have .me talk to her.' x 'And on these faint grounds you base your hopes V " I didn't at all like the tone in which he made that remark, and I was about to re ply a little haughtily. I suppose he saw the expression on my face, and he stopped aie from speaking by holding up his hand. " -Con t say any more. Captain Hamil ton. I ought to have stopped you before. 1 couldn't possibly marry you to the '.ady.-'- " Why not, aptain Smith V I asked, rather w arnrly. . ' Because, sir, I couldn't very well mar rv you to my otm ivile.' . " What V I almost shrieked. ' "My wife, he answered firmly. -'I am sorry you should be placed in so un pleasant a position. It is partly "my fault, but much more that of your own youth and rashness. Yon are an officer and a gentleman, and will respect the secret I am obliged to confide to yon V "I felt so utterly crushed that I was Scarcely Sensible of where I was. Cer tainly 1 did not fully understand all he was saying, but I managed to retain sense enough to bow my head to token of a seut. ! ' Iwa8tnaried,, said the captain, when I was last! home, to Miss Xatimer, who Wa ieft irorTimnpiifieii unn vaM i tcrfuniM5i.tw ud,' surroundings. . She dreaded to be left in England alone. ' The owners of this line do not allow their -captains to have their wives with them even as passengers. We -therefore decided to keep our . marriage secret, and my wife booked as a passenger under her maiden name. Not a soul on board except your self knows the truth. I trust to yon to keep it sacredt for 1 don't want to retire yet for a voyage or two." - " I am sure i don't know how I got from his cabin to my own, but once in the lat ter, I bolted the door, and never came out till the next morning. I can't tell if the cap tain ever confided to his wife what took Flace in his cabin, but I sometimes fancied could see in her face when her eyes Jell on me, an expression of mingled pity and amusement that I never noticed there before. One thing I was sure of, however, that was that when I became more famil iar witn her l ma not tbinx her quite so as I had only just got my. company, I was , pretty as 1 did at first.

This I did not at first feel in clined to regret, as the prospect appeared that we should be a little more tree and easy than were the fogies up at the top. But when I had fairly got settled into my place, I looked toward the captain, and Immediately began to deplore my insig nificance. Seated on his right was the prettiest girl 1 had ever seen. Her eyes were well, "it's no use giving you an auctioneer's catalogue of her charms, has mf svmpathy You lust picture your ideal, and she ' would come very near it.

Well, she proved to be just as charming as she looked, and before I turned in for the night I was deeply, desperately in love. - ' . .
