" ' i;:;;,-.S. ., The East Indian backed away, bow ed prof oundy, mumbling something in articulate, and sprang up the steps. i Danny looked after him, for a moment ; hesitant, then put down the tray, and : pursued. He caught the flicker of the lascar's cummerbund as the latter es I caped to the deck, and himself arrived at the forward end of the' promenade .'Just in time to see a-white shape dls- appear into the steerage companion way. tsj.w:.:;:'vv;"; Vrvv:'!.: " "I'd take me oath," said Danny re flectively, "thot he's the naygur thot came aboard at Sues.

' known locally as Aden Back Bay, the . Pan Juab" came to anchor, O'Rourke, from the lower grating of v the steamship's accommodation lad' "... der, signaled to one of the swarm of hovering dlnghys, and waiting for it to come in. reviewed the anchored ship ' P'ng, gathered tr'ansientiytogether in f that spot from the four corners of the r earth, and shook his head deepondlng- ; iy. : r A yerow-halred 1 Somali . boatman - shot his little craft in to the grating: O'Rourke dropped upon the stern-seat t and took the tiller. "Post Office pier," i he said curtly. The dinghy shot away ' with dipping, dripping oars, while the ' Irishman continued to search among the vessels for anything that seemed : to promise the speed necessary for bis ' purpose, and failed to discover one. - " 'Tis hopeless," he conceded bitter . ly as the boat wove a serpentine wake - in and out among the heaving bulks. V'Aud, I'm thinking, 'tis the O'Rourke ' who will presently be slinking back to confess he bragged beyond hla pow- rs." The fool that ye are, Terence, i wlth-'your big words and your fine promises, all empty as your purse! 'Tis ont of patience I am with ye en "tlrely!" . . Doubtless he made the' very picture " of unhappineps. .. - ; . 80, at least, seemed to think a man 1, lounging in a dilapidated canvas deck - chair beneath a dirty awning in the . stern of a distant tramp steamer; 'Vhc raiting the shoreward-bound with v a -pir rf r.r- ty binoculars, bad chanced v lo Uiw upon O'Rourke. , "books' as If he hadn't a friend In 1 the world," said the man: audibly. ' "Looks as if a letter from home with sash draft 'ud cbout BU his little bill." He grunted in pleased appreciation jf his own ttibtla lt ; A short man he was, stout, yery much at bom in , irlmy pajamas and nothing else,-, with ' lyes small, blue, informed with twlu illng humor and set in a' florid coun tenance bristling rwllh a three days' Crowth of grayish beard. He swung iht glasses again upon " O'Rourke, and, "Helll". he exclaimed, lifting hp with stimulated interest ' "Well, by jinks!" said the stout man. "Who'd a-thunk it?" T - ; Ee got up with evident haste and waddled forward to the bridge, where . be came upon what he evidently need : d in bis business: a huge and bat- . tered megaphone. Applying this to his lips and filling hi lungs he bel lowed with a right good will, and his ' hall, not - unlike the roaring of . an . 'amiable bull, awoke Aden's echoes: "0-o llourke!" " - - .- . : "Good morning," murmured the Iran man, lifting- his head . to stare about bltn with Incredulous ' curiosity. "Who'a that barking at me?" ' ' ' The pajama'd person continuing to . ibout at the top of bis voice, by tfint of earnest staring the Irishman evtint- . ualiy located the source of the up roar. "Now who the dlvvle might ye be?" he wondered. , "Ananias, me friend" to the boatman "row to the ' steamer yonder where the noise comes ' from." '-'. Whereupon the stout man, seeing tho boat alter its course, put aside the megaphone. And again peace brooecd ' over Aden. , - On nearer approach to the (ramp, O'Rourke's -smile broadened "1 to iK.iacd grin, and airily he waved a baud to the man with the voice. "Jimmy Quick!" be observed with nrftlgned delight "FIth, I begin to believe tht tC luck holds, after all!" u)ou uia fiieul ana suestea iniflllt ing!y: "DUik?"

" waving ettn'--ft chair, Quick, still a-gurgle,: wandered off, unearth ed a bottle, beamed upon his visitor, asked a dozen questions in aa many breaths and, without waiting for an answer, waddled off again to return with a brace of dripping soda-water bottles. "Schweppe's," he said,-', pat ting', their ' rotund forms tenderly; "and the last In our lockers all In your honor, colonel. ; .' A v 'So?'! commented O'Rourke.1 "Hard up, la it? 'Tis not the O'Rourke. who would be wishing ye ill, captain; dean but, faith, meself's not sorry to bear that word this day. I'm thinking me luck la sound, after all." ' "Quick had again vanished. Present ly O'Rourke heard his mighty, voice booming down an engine-room ventllar tor., - "Dravos! . Dravos,' you loafer! dome up and see a strange. sight!" lie came back, still vibrant with an elephantine sort of Joy. "O'Rourke," he panted, mopping a damp brow with the sleeve of his Jacket, "you're a good sight for sore eyes. . Never did we meet up with you yet but there came a run of luck." - " 'Tis good hearing," said O'Rourke, smiling. A slight little man slipped a bald head, relieved by ragged patches of gray hair about- the temples, apolo getically into the cabin door. "The top of the day to ye, Dravos!" said O'Rourke loudly, for little Dravos was partially deaf. "And how are the engines?" " ' The engineer carefully hitched up his trousers and regarded the wander er with temperate geniality. "Good afternoon, Colonel O'Rourke," be replied, clipping bis words mincing- With an Unconscious, Surprised Oath, ... O'Rourke 8tppsd Aside. ly. ;" "Very ' nicely, I thank you." He shook hands, sat -down on 'the edge of a berth with the manner, of one who fears be Intrudes, and glanced searchlugly at Quick, "If you're go ing to serve the drinks, cap'n," he snapped acidly, "hump yourself!" He accepted nis glass with a dis passionate air and drank hastily after a short nod to the guest, as one who sacrifices his personal inclinations to the laws of hospitality, But from his after-glow of benevolence, O'Rourke concluded that thedflnkiiad not been unwelcome. t . "What brings you here?" demanded Quick In a subdued roar. ' . n've a Job for ye, If so be It ye're not otherwise engaged and if ye can do It." Quick slapped a huge thigh delight' edly.

"Ye shall have It, within reason." . Dravos rose and sidled towards the door, a faraway look In bio pale eyes. "You strike the bargain, Quick," be said; "I'll have a look arougd the ennlne-room."

Every consideration of practicability business expediency and good adminis tration. Mr. I'e Graw says, "favors the plan as being a probable source of large revenue and great public accommoda tion. ; i -;; . ... : - "' ' .. Mr; DeGraw bases his recommenda tion on th ground that the expenditure for rural service, is , increasing . much more rsp;dly than the receipts, and the parcels post, he eaya would provide much additional revenue. "' In the past year the rural mail re ceipts were 17.670,000, while the ex penditures were 137,130,000, ., For the present year there has been appropriat ed $42,790,000. while it U not expected that there will be any appreciable in crease in receipts The loss will become greater each year, Mr. DtGraw nys. unlets parcels poet ie established to help. ' ' . ' - There are at present more than 1 .0.iO, 000 miles of rural mall route, and the average irtilrage a day for each carrier is 24. 19 miles In the pa t year 577 routes wee added, making the present totaillCMJ. , More than 13,000,000 letters and p tr eats were received at the dead letter office during the year.Jlhe daily receipts averaping 44,600 pieces, an increase over th previous year of 8 par cent. PARCELS OS Ice Covered Ncuse and Trent Ei vers, Roads Still In Bad Condition Travel Almost Impossible For the first time in ten years both Neuse and Trent rivers wore frazen over yesterday morning. : The ice was so thick on Neuja river thatiearly in the morning before the sun had suffici ent time to thaw the frozen sheet of ice, many skaters were seen on the ice off Eesfc-Front street. However, it waa rather dangerous sport and when one youngster broke through, fortunately in shallow water, the skaters decided that the sport was not worth the risk and returned to their homes. ' Snow and ice still cover the streets and roads and it was almost impossible for horses to keep their foothold oh the slippery pavements. So bad are the. roads leading into the city Postmaster Basnight would not allow the rural free delivery men to venture out and will not do so until travelling by conveyance is practicable. Practically ihe same conditons pre vails all over this section. In Pamlico county the roads are in such condition that travel is simply impossible and it is the same in other sections of Craven. Much of the snow and ice was melt ed during yesterday and if the sun. con tinues to thed i s rays in this section again today, much more of it will die- Lappear and travelling will be easier and safer.
