DRILLING ADVENTURE
>F A WBAUNQ BLIP ON TEE
JAPAN SEA.
5 rag 1 red Through a Tarrifflc Storm by
a Wounded and Angry Whale Until
the Ship Ws Almost a Total Wreck.
Prom the yew York Preis.
We were in the Japan sea, cruising for
ght whales.
Our ship was the Georgetown of New
edford, Capt. Williams, an old sea dog,
ith lists like the knots on an oak tree and
tremendous breadth of shoulders.
The man had the reputation of having
iptured tho largest whale ever caught in
iese eras —a humpbacked “fellow,”
bich, on being tried out, yielded 140 bar
ds of oiL
The skipper was proud of his fame as a
tillful whale hunter, which, in fact, was
mil deterred. He could throw the barbed
-on further than most men, and was al
ays cool and self-possessed in moments of
xe greatest peril, whether it was during
is fights with the monsters of the deep or
ith the angry elements.
It was a close, sultry day. Far and near
he surface of the sea was unbroken by a
.ugie ripple.
A yellowish vapor or haze had, however,
or gome hours been noticed to windward,
t seemed to rise slowly and to spread
rradually over the blue, unclouded concave
ibove us. The sun meanwhile had assumed
i singular appearance. It had turned to a
iery red oolor, and was surrounded by a
{teen and blue ring which seemed to revolve
-ound and round it.
Finally a hollow, humming noise was
neard, as if some brazen instrument was
oeing blown by unseen beings far above our
leads.
Ac the same moment, from aloft, like the
wild cry of some distant sea bird, we heard
the voice of Hindok, the Kanaka boat
steerer, who kept a lookout at th mainmast
bead.
“There blows 1 There—there—there bio w
ew-s!”
“Whereaway?” yelled Williams, through
his speaking trumpet.
At the same moment the sun-browned
faces of all the men on deck were turned
aloft.
"Three points off the lee bow—two miles
off—a try right whale, sir. There blows!
blows! blows!”
"Call all bar.ds!” roared theciptain.
This was done, and all hands fallow came
bounding on deck.
"Stand by the boats!’ was the next order.
The boat steerers—young, aotive fellows,
ill of them—sprang into their respective
>oats to get their lines and “craft” in readi
less.
“Lower away!” ordered old Williams,
vith lightning celerity making his way to
he dyck.
The four bmts dropped splashing into the
oa, and the next moment away they went
tfter the whale.
Xu about half an hour we lay on our oars,
'siting for the whale to come up.
Hindok stood in the bow, scanning the
mean with his eagle eyes. He was as flue
boking a specimen of an islander as was
ever seen. His frame was tall and supple,
Us arms long and sinewy, his shoulders of
great breadth and bis chest round and deep.
“Do you see anything yet?” inquired Wil
liams.
"Nothing yet see. sir,” answered the
inlander, casting a dubious glance around
him.
The haze bad filled all the air and the
sun’s light was darkened ominously.
The humming noise previously alluded to
had growu louder, nnd we could all see a
great line of white water tearing down to
ward us from windward.
Suddenly Hindok, pointing ahead, whis
pered:
■‘There, dat fellow, sir!”
“Your oars, men,” hissed the captain
through bis set teeth.
We seized the oars and the boat glided
swiftly and noiselessly toward where the
ripples ahead showed that the whale was
coming up.
We had not got half way there when up
came the leviathan, shooting straight from
the sea, his whole monstrous form revealed,
his fins outspread like a pair of wings.
A moment he remained poised apparently
on tho very end of his flukes, then down ho
came, striking the sea like a thunderbolt,
and sending the sprays flying in a white,
binding shower all arouud him.
' ‘Now, Hindok—give it to him!” screamed
Williams.
A litio of steel blue light went through the
air, then another, and we were fast.
Hindok bad put both irons in the whale at
the distance of six fathoms.
With a backward rush the monster nearly
struck the boat. The vapor from his s pout
came into our faoes, and the heat, thrown
over upon ber starboard gunwale, was
nearly oapsized.
Down went the whale the next moment,
sounding, and away went the boat as if
drawn by lightning, with the lint bumming
and drumming around the loggerhead, and
her gunwale nearly on a level with the
water.
Nearly at tho same moment the storm
struck us
Ail around us the wind howled with ter -
rific fury, and the foam and spray, almost
blinding us, drenched every man to the
skin. The ocean seemed one mass of white,
boiling water, in which the dragged boat
was buried so often that we were nearly
swept from our thwarts, while the tub oars
man , whose duty it was to bail, vainly en
deavored to keep the craft dry.
The air had darkened with the flying
rack and scud, which, in tom masses, were
blown hither and thither like phantom de
mons come to seize us and drag us down to
the depths below.
At last the whale came up, and we heard
old Williams give the order ta “Haul lino
there!”
Haul we did, but it was like hauling along
U' der ihe surface, for the boat now was al
most continually buried.
Iu fact, when we wero near enough to
enable the captain—who, according to cus
tom, had changed places with Hindok. tak
ing his station at the bow—to hurl hislauce,
the boat was full of water.
Williams, however, standing unmoved,
threw his lance. The whale felt it, and,
writhiujJ, turned, making straignt for the
boat.
“Stern! stern!” screamed the cap lain, as
he spoke main planting the lance iu the
monster’s body.
W’e endeavored to obey, but a great mass
of blinding water, with spray and foam,
struck us, aud over went the boat.
„ Ihe lust object I saw at that time was
v -►>>. Williams, s.atod astride the capsized
coat, churning away vigorously at the
wbaio. Then I lost consciousness.
When I came to 1 became sensible of a
•ort of flying motion, as if I were being
borne through the air.
I opened uiy oyee to see myself in the
arms of Hindok, who sat astraddle the cap
sized boat, which mas dashing along through
the water, drawn by the whale. The storm
was still raging, and the effect of the black
rack aud scud, with the white, boiling sea,
hghted by the ghastly glare of the sun
i-truggling through the vapor, was to weird
and singular that for a moment I half be
lieved myself in some unearthly region.
Hindok, with his black huir streaming on
the blast, and his wild eyes Hashing a lam
i>nt glare, added to the strange effect of
the scene.
“Where am If” I inquired.
“All right!" answered Hindok.’ “Boat
'’•pelze; capting hurt whale so be no can go
down. All right. We get whale.”
“Where Is the captain I”
“Don’t know. “Guest other boats pick
up."
“How came you to pick m# upf”
“Boat strike you on hogd. You go faint.
Ma by you. Ala pick y<di up ana gat on
**iat with vou."
As I had now fully recover*! my aanase
llleduk, < autioning tnm to hold oa hard to
the txest e lieal, let go of mo.
1 eeiambled along behind bias, aod there
we two were towigiug to a oapetaed beat la
a storm, with a whale to injured that it
could not sound dragging us onward.
On, on, on.
The teas flew up around us and the spray
nearly blinded us, yet we clung firmly to
our bold.
I glanced behind me several times to see
the other boats, almost out of sight astern.
tossing in the caldron of waters, their
crews evidently watching us. Still further
astern, with the black rack almost hiding
her like a curtain, lay the good ship under
close reefed malntopsail and foretopmast
staysail.
Meanwhile there was the whale, our
“ocean horse,” drawing us on, his spout
ascending now and then with the noise of
thunder.
The sharp keel made our position very
uncomfortable, and yet we were obliged to
maintain it, as any motion sideways would
insura the rolling over of the boat, which
we could not then hope to regain.
It seemed to me as if the speed of that
whale would never relax. Away he went
to the leeward, now and then rising out of
the water, revealing bis great body with
the two irons stiokiog in it. 1 had never
before obtained such a good view of the
whale in motion.
The vast back of the monster was fully
showd every time he arose from the creamy
waters. Tbere was his hump, so thickly
covered with barnacles as to resemble a
hillock of oyster shells, with here aud there
a broad cut, which hod healed up, but be
tokened that this was not the first time he
had felt the barbed irou. It was, however,
the singular appearance of the huge head
which most impressed me. Long and ill
shaped, with its duuiobtlve eyes, tbere was
something so uneartnly in its appearance
every time it was lifted up that I involun
tarily thought of the fables of sea monsters
which 1 bad read when a child, and which
had first inspire! me with the desire for a
sea life.
Drenched and shivering, the situation of
Hindok aud I was, meanwhile, anything but
comfortable, with a rushing pain in my
head, about the region of the temple, vrhicu
told me that 1 had been (truck when I first
tumbled into tho sea.
Oa—on —still on.
Now I glanced behind me, no more to see
ship or boats. All were hidden by distance
and the black rack of tbe storm.
The speed of tbe whale, however, had now
begun to abate. His motions were palpably
more feeble, and his spouiing became weak
and less frequent, aud sounded mournfully,
“Soon die now—hooray!" cried wild Hin
dok, as tho whale at last spouted blood.
The blood came every* moment thicker
and slower. The boat’s speed now was
nearly stopped. •
Finally over went the monster on his
side, the blood now rising scarcely six
inches above his spout hole. He swain
feebly, describing a half circle, aud then—
he died.
“Got whale?’ cried Hindok, moving his
hands joyfully. *•
“Ay,” I answered, “but where is the
ship?”
“Never mind ship,” answered the wild is
lander,his mouth fairly watering as he look
ed toward the vast, upheaving body of the
monster. “We got whale.”
We now coutrived to right the boat and
bail it out, wheu Hindok lashed It to the
whale.
And thus we lay, outriding the storm, far
away in mid-ocean, not knowiug when or
how we would be picked up.
By night the storm had abated, but there
*a< as yet no sign of the ship.
We were both hungry and thirsty, but
every drop of fresh water and all the salt
meat and biscuit usually carried in whale
boats had been spilled out by the capsizing
of the light craft.
We did not sleep a wink that night.
In the morning still no sign of a sail.
Another day passe 1 and now our parched
tongues clove to tbe roof of our mouths.
On the next day we were nearly driven
mad for want of water. Hindok’s wiid
eyes rolled in bis head and several times I
saw him fasten them cu me with a sort of
hungry look, and I knew the vulture like
feeling that animated bis breast.
Another day—still no sail!
At midnight of the next day, which had
passed as the others, I lay weak and help
less in the bottom of tbe boat, when I saw
a pair of eyeballs flashing into my face.
It was Hindok, who now caught mo by
the throat, his uplifted sheath knife gleam
ing.
Vainly I struggled. The point of the
knife pricked my fieeb, wheu the fellow
suddenly released rue.,,
The sound of croaking yards and blocks
was heard right ahead.
It proved to be our ship, which soon pioked
us up.
We found the captain and all hands safe
aboard and told our story.
As soon as we had partaken of refresh
ments the captain shook hands with Hindok
and complimented him far so pluckily hold
ing on to tbe whale.
As to the men, they gave three cheers and
carried us into the forecastle on their shoul
ders to listen again to our story of that wild
ride on the capsized boat.
OLD HOTCa’S CREED.
Over In Boston He Booms Ben Butler
and Tom Paine.
From the New York Journal of Finance.
This is the way Old Hutch is represented
as talking iu a Boston cafe to a group of re
porters:
"I am not crazy,” he said. "I am only an
old man who has gone up the mountain and
is going down into the valley of death.
Happy will it be for me when I get there,
whatever may be the effect on the public.
Death is thp end—Eternal Sleep—Tbe old
theory was:
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep,
If 1 should die before I wake.
I pray the Lord my soul to take.
"Now 1 say:
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord I may never wake.
“I will not finish it"
“Cremation is the thing, gentlemen, I tell
you I believe in it.
Then "Old Hutch” branched off into
poetry and quoted in tones that could be
heard a block away portions of “Lockslev
Hall” and the plays of Shakespeare. He
declared that Walt Whitman was one of
the greatest of poets.
"Hve read all poetry,” said he. “Folks
tell me, ‘Why don’t you keep the books you
buy? What’s the use? After you’ve read
them why not give them away ? Why don’t
you reporters read Dickeus, Voltaire, Whit
tier ; that’s the stuff.
"I’ve been thinking I’d hire a reporter: I
can get one for about 110 a week.”
Again "Old Hutch” chuckled.
Risiug in his stookings. towering far
above everybody present, the man of mill
ions demanded to know if anybody knew
who was tbe author of the grandest aud
noblest sentiment ever uttered. Then in
stentoriau tones he said: “Tbe world is my
country; to do good is my religion.”
From the further corner of the barroom
came the answer:
“Tom Paine.”
That struck right to the heart of "Old
Hutch,” and he strode over to shake bands
with the responsive individual. Seated
once more, he went on:
“Tbe world is my country; to do good la
my religion. That ought to be on the front
of Young’s hotel, and on every lainppoetin
Boston-.”
A reporter had been enjoying the hoepl
tality of the Chicagoan for some time, and
prop-eed a little appollioaris. “Old Hutch”
objvoted, told the young man he oouldn’t
afford to speud tbe money, at the same time
drawing out a roll of bill* and laying a $lO
and *9O note on the table.
But he had to put them back in hie
wallet.
"Who Is the brtoulert mao in tbia coun
