A TURTLE’S HEART.

A turtle, weighing probably N*ia»e
twenty-live or thirty pounds, wan pur
chased yesterday about noon by the
manager of one of the club* for the
purpose of converting It Into soup. 11l
h.»«d was cut off at 2 o’clock and the
shell and contents hung up In a 000 l
place In the rear yard.
Four hours lau-r II was taken down,
the shell eut off and the rest thrown
Into a tin pan.
The chef then proceeded to clean and
prepare .he edible parts for today s
soup.
At roven o'clock or full live hours af
ter the reptile had been decapitated, Its
heart waa seon pulsating and throbbing
with the rhythm and preciseness of
clockwork, expanding to Its full capac
ity and then diminishing again, ap
parently with as much force, vigor, and
regularity, as when it was peacefully
reposing, with Intact anatomy. In the
mud at the bottom of the river, or
basking on a log itv the sunshine.
A turtle evidently has gnrat tenacity
in more ways than one.

The conduct of everybody, the erew.J
the pasaengert and especially lh*' lady
patengers. was In the highest degree
cqo) and praiseworthy. There was no
fear expressed, oo erl*» and no alarm.
Tb* capta’n gave bis order* and they

a portion of ttv cargo consisted of ex

It was about 2 o’clock In the morn

brightly in the distance, that an ocean
tug hound for Norfolk came along and
sixty odd occupants of tbe boats
were token off, packed like sardlrtes
aboard the tug. and her nose turned

A pile of blankets were on hand, also
to be used as temporary clothing. Tho
water was smooth all tho time and the
moon came up shortly before the sight

Several of the passengers brought up
gripsacks containing attire and valua

they wore promptly thrown overboard

He was taking no chances and bu

The ship's cat, the mascot, having
been on board eight years, was lost.

In summing up. the roremies*
