The white cliffs of Knglurid glow
! dim in the distance, and out of the
other horizon looms the shore o Krun

escort lazily keeps pace with them
A sudden signal from th*- lording
i destroyer causes instuntenous change
■ in the whole convoy. The leading de
I strover has come to a dead stop right’
athwart the course of tin* troopships.
The speed of the transport.' drops.
( The word ‘‘.Mine" goes round from
! unith to mouth, and everybody n
i board rushes to the side to s-\
A mine it is sure enough As the
! transports draw near it can be seen
! floating scarce a cable's leuvth from
j the destroyer's quarter. Only a rniaP
patch of its rounded hulk shows nnovo
the surface. But the small patch is it
with the deadly horns, a touch of
which fires the charge of explosives
Vs th * transmits move on at n tar
! ter-specd. one destroyer lingers be
hind. It moves a safe distune** away
from the floating mine. Then comes
the rattle of its machine-gun. The gun
-ner is firing at the mine. Suddenly
there comes a spurt of flame .tml
, smoke, drowned immediately by :t
huge spoilt of seething water as the
mim* • xplodes. The destroyer ’’osumes
! its place at the head of the co’nmn.
The airship drifts brick to give th«*
•‘All riear". at a signal from th * load
er the convoy resume- full-speed, and
further in ideni the passage is com
, pleted.
As th ' first transport steams with
in the breakwater of the French port,
a seaplane comes swooping in bon' i
the sea. Four red bombs are tucked I
side bv side under its light-hand w*ng ;
but three of the four arc1 mis.'ingj
i from the rack on the other side. 1 he (
captain of the troop-ship notes this j
through his glasses and remarks up- j
