$1 ' . ^ ?????? ?? struck:bya whale. ; A. Little Schooner Gets in the Way of a Slonstep And is Overturned and Dragged Out of Sight by the Leviathan. "What do I know about whales, sharks, squids, and other animals of the sea?" echoed Capt. Carter of the brig Mary Jane. "AVait till I light my pipe and I'll reel you oil a yarn which I can bring witnesses to swear to." "In 1S79," he continued, after getting his pipe alight, "I owned a small schoon ere til led the Fly, and I had her in the shell trade. I used to gather them on Santa Rosa Island, and from thence along the coast clcar around to Cape St. Bias. My crew was composed of a negro, who acted as mate, and two boys. Being a wee bit of a craft, and dodging among the islands most of the time, we did not need much of a crew nor any great amount of seamanship. It was in August of the year I have named that one afternoon we were about midway between Santa Rosa and the cape, and about fifteen miles off the land. "VVe ^ were headed for the cape, and making about three knots an hour, the wind being light and the weather fine. One of the boys was at the wheel, the other asleep, and the mate was splicing a rope. < I stood on the port bow looking at a broken spar floating a few hundred feet off. There was no sea on, and the Fly ( was on an even keel. Suddenly, and without a breath of warning, the schooner was lifted clear of the water j nrifll fl lYrnnf r?.wl ?? 1 1 ? 1 .. -v.. Viuoii UI1U null" UI1 IIUI UCillU I ends. It so happened that 110 one was j 1 thrown overboard, but before wc could exactly understand what had happened i the craft, turned turtle. i "The first thing I knowed I was on ' aer bottom, with one of the boys alongjide o' me. I had a small keg o' powder 'n the cabin, and my first thought was that we were blown up. I didn't cl-ug < to this idea more'n a minute, however; for, as I got the water out o' my eyes, I. : < ;aught sight of a great black mass along- | i ^ side, and in a second more made out the afreat square head of a whale. The water jist there was at least ninety feet deep, but it had been roiled up until it looked like a mud hole for an acre or two around as. I got it through my wool pretty soon that we had been struck by a whale, and that the old leviathan of the deep was still alongside. In fact, I could have touched his nose with a twenty-foot pole. "Now, one of the singular things is that we hadn't seen the spout of a Avhale that afternoon. Indeed, it is rare for ^^ne to run in so nigh that coast. Of ' ^^^vurse, there might have been a whale ^flNB^orting around and wc not sec him, but the chances are that that fellow had made a run of several miles under water. When he came up to blow he foumd the Fly in his way, and he threw her off his nose as a bull would toss a gadfly. The blow must have dazed him, however, for it was a good three minutes before he moved a iin. I could look into one of his . p,. eyes, and by and by I noticcd it take on r malicious twinkle, and he gave his flukes a flirt and backed off about a hundred feet. He was mad. He thought ue naci been attacked by some enemy, and he wanted revenge. "Well, sir, that consumed critter was coming for us. Being light, the Fly was high and dry ont of water, and offered a pretty fair target. He uttered a snort, swung his flukes about, and came bead on, striking the schooner fair amidships. He knocked the two of us twenty feet into the water, and he made a hole in her side through which you could have flung a water butt. The blow broke her all up, but as the water poured in she only settled down until her bottom was a wash. When the boy and I got our eyes clear we noticed that the yawl, nigh full* of water, was floating a little way off, and we made for it. While I hung on to the bow he climbed in and bailed her out, and in about ten minutes we were afloat again. Meanwhile the whale had his nose agin the upset schooner, as if smelling cf her. She was between us and him, and it was a lucky thing for us. We iiadu't so much as a splinter to paddle with, and the breeze seemed to have died away about the time the Fly went over. "By and by old leviathan backed off ^vi U.IUI.UVI ivuuu, a 1114 mm! xie went further, and he came faster, but as the Schooner had settled down he slid up on her bottom until his weight settled her down and let him pass over. As he floundered over she rolled heavily to starboard and his flukes were no sooner clear of her than she righted herself. In so doing both masts snapped off, and a tangle of cordage covered the water. The Fly hadn't ballast enough to sink her, but she was down until her rail was almost awash. The yawl was too small potatoes for the whale, or he reckoned on finishing the schooner first. He lay quiet for a short time and made another dash at her. He was kicking up such a sea that we could n't exactly make out how he got fast in the wreckage; but fast he got. There was such a tangle of ropes that he probably drew some of them iuto his mouth. Then the fun came to a cliJ max. Wc had drifted away until well clear of him, and apprehending no im^ mediate danger. 'Wliftt commotio] that old chap kicked up when lie found himself toggled I lie rapped the water with his flukes until the sound could bo heard a mile away, and he rolled his huge bulk to startfbard and port until he raised a sea heavy enough for a ten-knot breeze. By and by he seemed to get rattled, and off he went, towing wreckage, schooner, iind all. . He muflc the most tremendous efforts to get clear, but as this was impossible, he headed right out to sea, and at length was lost to sight. About midnight that night we were picked up by a coaster.

The Bull. Unlike the mule, the bull seals his declaration of war with the front end of his body. And while the mule is satisfied with an attitude of calm and philosophical belligerency, the bull nearly frightens his victim to death with unseemly demonstrations of wrath before finally tossing him into the great beyond. The heels of the mule may be the favorite resort of the uncertainty of life, but on the fore-front of the bull sits a nightmare of rampageous fury that is worse than death. I was once chased over a ten-acre lot by an angry bull, and I know whereof I speak. The day of doom will not be a fragment of a last year's circumstance to what I experienced on that occasion. He fucd me, as a billiard-player ^vould say, while yet I lingered half way through the fence, and I thought the end of all things had come, especially the front end of the I 11 4 1. t* mm. yvim to uu intents and purporses the final cataclysm had, indeed, broken loose. The fence tumbled down upon me like, aud the beautiful, bucolic landscape was lacerated beyond recognition. To add to my misery, some one. struck me with the butt-end of a brick house, and jammed a church steeple through my left leg. And as if I had not achieved enough glory for one day, the horizon was rent in twain, the blue vault of heaven collapsed, and a big fragment of the sky fell on the small of my back. My friends afterward tried to convince me that all this was a figment of my agitated imagination. They cruelly scouted the idea that I was punctured by a churcl steeple, and substituted therefor an ordinary 'way-down-on-the-Suwannee-Rivei horn. They even went so far as to insinuate that the landscape was not much hurt, and that it was only the demolitioc of mv two-dnllnr-nn<1-n-hnlf - I ? that made me think the graves were giving up their dead. But I carry with me down this vale of tears a game leg and n twisted spine-as proof of my assertions. There is one good point about the bull ?he can't climb a tree.?Wathingtor JIatchet. The School of Patience. My dear boy, if a man can only cultivate patience and strength, it seems to m< he will be a good neighbor, a pleasani man to do business with, a safe man t< trust and the kind of a man the world loves, even though he lack wisdom, anc hath no genius, and can't tell a good story or sing a note. How much does th< fretful, restless, hurrying old world ow< to the patient man, who finds his strensrtl <4in quietness ?and confidence," who cai be patient with our faults, our fancies our wickedness; who can be quiet whei the softest word would have a sting; wh< cau wait for storms to blow over and fo: wrongs to right themselves; who cat patiently and silently endure a slight un til he has forgotten it, and who can evei be patient with himself. That's the fcl low, my boy, who tries my patience anc strength more than any man else witl whom I have to deal. I could get alonf with the rest of the world well enough if he were only out of it. I can meet al my other cares and enemies bravely anc cheerfully enough. But when mysel oomes to me with his heart aches anc blunders and stumblings, with his owi follies and troubles and sins, somehow hi takis all the tuck out of me. My strcngtl is weakness and my patience is folly when I come to deal with him. He tire me. He is such a fool. He makes th same stupid blunder in the same stupit way so many times. Sometimes, when think I must put up with him and hi ways all my life I want.^o give up. An< then the next time he comes to me wit) his cares and the same old trouble h seems so helpless and penitent that I fee sorry for him, and try to be patient witl him, and promise to help him all I can once more. Ah, my dear boy, as yoi grow older,* that is the fellow who wil try you and torment you, and draw oi your sympathy, and tax your patienc and strength. Be patient with him, poo fellow, because I think he does love you and yet as a rule you are harder on hit than any one else.?Burdette in Brooklyn Eagle. A Carriage and Fair. Smith?I thought you told me thai Brown had got along in the world so wel that he had a carriage and pair? Jones?"Well, I told you the truth. S.?You did, eh? Why, he is work ing as a laborer in the navy yard. J.?Well, that is all right. A mai that gets into the nary yard is gettioj along in-the world, and the carriage an< pair I referred to were a baby carriag and twins.?Boston Courier, A lonng *Un. A man in pursuit of a goose for his dinner was attracted by the sight of a plump, extra-sized one, i 4'Is that a young: one?" said ho to the rosy-clieeked lass in attendance. "Yes, sir, indeed it is was the reply. "How much do you want for it?" he asked. "A dollar, sir," "That is too much, I think; 6ay fiveeighths and here's your money." "Well, sir, as I would like to get you j as a steady customer, take it." The goose was carried home and roasted, but found to be so tough as to be uneatable. The following day the man accosted the fair poulterer:? "Did you not tell me that goose was young which I bought of you?" "yes, sir, I did, and it was." "No, it was not." "Don't you call mc a young woman? I'm only ninetween?" "Yes." "Well, I'vr heard mother say, many a time, that he was nearly six weeks young f er than me." ^?? Chimneys. In the year 1200, chimneys were scarcely known in England. One only was allowed in a religious house, one in a manor i house, and one in the great hall of a castlc or lord's house; but in other houses the smoke found its way out as it could. The writers of the fourteenth century seem to have considered them as the newest invention of luxury. In Henry YIII.'s reign, the University of Oxford had no fire allowed; for it is mentioned that, after the students had supped, having no lire in winter, they were obliged to take a good run for half an hour to get heat s in their feet before they retired for the night. Holinshed, in the reign of Elizabeth, describes the rudeness of the pre1 ceeding generation in the arts of life, i "There were," says he, "very few chimi ncys; even in the capital towns the tire ( was laid to the wall, and the smoke issued out at the door, roof, or window. The houses were wottled and plastered ovei 1 with clay, and all the furniture and utensils were of wood." In 1G39 a tax of two shillings were laid on chimneys. A Lively Impression. Not long ago the doctor's small boy wanted a pair of rubber boots. The doctor tried to reason him out of it, but the youngster persisted in his demand. Finally, the doctor told him a little story?one > he had read in the newspaper. The boy was all attention, and the s'ory proceeded: ( 4'A little boy in Pittsburgh had been given a pair cf rubber boots by his father. He waded in the water with them?water ran over the tons of the boots?bov took A *f i cold?mother put his feet in hot water? . grew worse?doctor came?little boy died . ?undertaker?funeral." The little boy listened attentively to the end of the story, and the father was congratulating himself i on the impression he had made, when with i a long breath, the youngster asked: '"What t did they do with the boots?" Don't Deceive Children. k The welfare of all babies would be greatly advanced if they were regarded more frequently iartho light of real peo^ pie?of individuals. Babies of eighteen i months old are quite capable of" forming an opinion in regard to their nurses and mothers, and one must be hardened indeed not to feel the close scrutiny of those , clear eyes that have as yet been troubled by no guile within. We ought not to ' deceive the small&t child, and should t begin right, in this respect, from baby) hood. | Resuscitated. "I was walking thestrcet," said a philanthropist, "when a poor woman with - two children attracted my attention. They i were suffering. I stopped them. The j husband had died that morning, and they l were penniless. 1 wrent to their home, and there I saw the poor father. I gave ? them money, and left the home of sorrow, i I thought, when I reached the street, that 3 I had not given them enough, and mountt ed the three flights of stairs. I knocked at the door, and the poor dead father 1 opened it. I left." i Effective. A Tennessee' judge was once presiding 1 in a case where a woman was being tried , for some offense in which the evidence was clearly against her. At the close of ' the trial the judge, in giving the case to ? the jury, said: "Gentlemen, you have 1 heard the evidence and know the law." j Then, after a pause: ' 'There is no punj ishment a man can inflict upon a woman and still be a man." The woman was ac* quitted by the jury without leaving the J box. e " ^^ """ "NV.TTRAT.nTA Aim Pirrnvimrair am ? ?
