EN In our line of busi ness lmvo pleuty of queer experiences," _ suld n veteran bar pi lot, "hut i think the strangest that over fell to my lot happened In 1803, right after tlie great hurricane that swept down tlie south const and drowued so many poor Usher folks on the little Isl ands. The storm blew Itself away on n Sunday,” the pilot went on, “and next Sunday morning, having nothing In particular to do, 1 decided to take our stenmer, which was a'handy little twelve-knot craft, and go for a two hours’ ruu out into tlie gulf from South Point to see wbnt I could see. The water was still full of driftwood and wreckage from the flshenneu’s cabins, hut wo noticed nothing In particular until wo had been out about «u hour. Then one of the men «m the boat sighted a big red can buoy .over to the sou'west. It was a Govferinuout mark that had broken away from ills .moor ings, nnd lie suggested’ lent we go and see where It belonged.

The chiul was a hoy ot romteeu or thereabouts, nnd lie was sitting down with Ills bend hanging forward on Ills breast nnd bis arms stretched out and clutching tho planks, llo looked for mil tho world ns If 1m were ' end, but die was only asleep, nnd when I rang rblio bell he straight ened up nil of a sndden nnd glared at tlie ship like a person In a dream. All he Imd on was -a little shirt. And while we lowered a smnll boat and pulled over ‘o him he sat so, staring nml saying not a word. lie Imd strength enough to climb in, hut when We reached tlie ship he fainted "The poor boy bad lioen on that floating floor for seven days and twelve hours," continued the pilot. "He was the son of a C.nscon .oystermnu, who lived on Uriind Isle, tuid .the hurricanes had caught him alone in their cabin. It tore the ramshackle but to pieces and lie found himself adrift on the floor, which bad hung .together. How lie lived through the storm Is one of those mysteries flint can never be ex plained, but he was carried far oft tho coast, nml next morning was out of sight of land In (lie open gulf. Then followed a solid week, spent without food, water or shelter of any kind. 1 have been a seafaring mail all iny life nnd lmve known of nuiny wonderful escape^ from death on the deep wa ters, but never anything to comport) with this.

He bad been n very strong, sturdy fellow, and be fore the storm bad weighed ICO pounds. When we rescued him he weighed less tlmu 100. “Of course, most of wlint I hnve re lated we learned afterward, when he was strong enough to talk. As soon ns we got him aboard we headed for South Point, eighteen miles away, for ns had luck would have It, there was not n particle of food or liquor on the ship. Fortunntely, however, we hailed the fruiter Breakwater, and got a lit tle brandy und a can of condensed milk, nml It was marvelous how a few spoonfuls of nourishment revived the lad. At Quarantine I turned him over to tlie doctor, nnd !u a week be was practically .well. Then an uncle came after lilm, and I have never heard from lilm since.

Stcdman and J. C. Johnson, of Island Falls, came home recently from n trip Into the woods, where they lmve been exploring for a suitable lo cation for a set of lumber camps, and they are telling a story about being attacked by an immense bull’ moose, says the Lewiston. (Me.) Journal. It 1ms nlwnys been said by old hunt ers und guides that a moose would not bother n person unless they trou bled him, hut from tlie story of Sted- man nnd Johnson It would seem that It docs not make any difference. They were coming down the stream In a canoe and saw some distance nhead of them what looked to be a big black rock. Tlie current was very swift and the canoe was soon upon the object. Instead of being a rock It was a hull moose and he had his head burled nway to the foreshoulders In the wa ter In a search for lily pad roots. As the canoe neared the animal he raised his head nnd started for tho shore. The current made In toward tho shore nt that point and the canoe followed Its course. The moose entered tho bushes n short dfstance and just as tlie ennoe was passing him he turned nnd made for the men. He struck the craft with both fore feet ou tho how. Tho ennoe was tipped over and the men went down under It. Johnson came up to the top of the water and tho moose tnndo another lunge for him, but the men succeeded In getting away. Stcdiunn was caught under ono of the thwarts la tlie craft when It tipped over, and not until one end ot the ennoe had struck a rock nml pnrtly upturned tvnB lie able to extricate him self. The craft floated down tho rivet nearly half a mile and thnt night tho men slept under It on tlie shore. The next morning they went hack nnd re covered what goods they had lost, nnd with pieces of driftwood for paddles they succeeded lit getting home. They claim that all thnt saved them from being killed was the fact thnt the canoe tipped over. If the moose bad .ever got nt the men In the shal. low water ho would liavo suroly tram- 3Sod them to dentil. A Nunn Girl'll llmvery. Mrs. Cleorgo W. Irving, of New York 'City, who Is spending the season nt Morristown, N. J„ went out for a walk a few days ngo. She was acoompun lad by the nurse girl, Bessie Kane, wlio had charge of Mrs. Irving’s child, sixteen months old. While near the home of Frederick II. Uarrnbmnt Ills bulldog sprang nt the baby. Bessie grabbed tlie child nml raised It to her shoulder, whereupon the dog jumped upon her nml bit her lit the side. The girl held fust to the baby, and, pass ing It over to Mrs. Irving, told her to rim for her life. Tlie dog released his hold upon the *mirsr nnd sprang to ward Mrs. Irving, who was paralyzed with fright. Bessie grabbed the nul- mnl by the collar, nml, throwing him ov?r, choked him and finally sat upon his body to hold him down. Both women screamed for help, nnd fl man who works about Mr. Garrabraiit's place ran to their assistance.' lie grabbed up n fence ra II, hut when Ben- sic released the dog the animal mnde another dash for Mrs. Irving nnd tho child. Again the nurse girl seized him nml tried to choke lilm Into submis sion. Tho fni'in linml grabbed the dog, too, nnd held him uutll the two women with the child reached their boarding place ’ In safety. The dog was put to death by order of Ills owner. The waist of tho nurse girl was torn from her body, nml she was badly cut about the body nml arms by the dog's teeth. Dr. J. A. Campbell cauterized the wounds.

The two hoys were on their way home when the bird swooped dowu upon thorn, striking the younger brother and knocking him senseless to the ground. Before tlio elder brother could realize wlint Imd happened tho bird has struck lilm In tlie face and knocked him down. As. he started to got up he saw tho Infuri ated onglo coming at lilm a second time, nml, seizing a wagon spoke that was lying tienr, ho struck the bird as It came close to lilm, tujurlng It slight ly. A third time It ehnrged down upon tho hoys nnd seemed to ho mak ing for tho younger brother, who- was still lying on the ground unconscious, but tlio older hoy quickly got between his younger brother and tho eagle nml succeeded In striking It a blow thnt laid it dead nt his feet.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat. |V«’ S DanBeroun Voyaco * Deep-water sailors are npt to view with contempt tho seamen who go on coastwise ships, but those long- shoremeu are often skilful, nnd cer tainly they arc exposed to many dan gers.

It foundered ut sen In n furious gale, and the enptnlu and live men went down with It. Two seniricn, named Lewd nml Boblnsou, kept themselves afloat nnd found refuge ou the roof of the cabin, which had become de tached. To this the two men clung until tlio hurricane had spent Its fury. On tills novel raft they spent five days and nights, without food or drink nnd with very little rest, ns the waves frequent ly swept over them. Robinson twice slipped into the wa ter, but cncli time wns rescued by Lowd. In their hunger they nto part of their leather sea-boots, nnd when picked up by a passing schooner they were on the verge of delirium; but they were rescued In time, and soon recovered. Attacked by a Hornet. Snake. Peter Foster Causey, Jr., of tho United States Engineers, was with his assistants making a survey of the Mlsspllllon River, about ten miles from Milford, Del. He had been landed on the marsh by a boat's crew, and had set his transit to take a rapgo of tho poles when he saw coming over the hanks of the river what ho thought was a large rat. -As Mr. Causey had nothing larger than a lead pencil for defenrB, he cried out for help, and dis covered It was a large snake. The snake made several attempts to attack him, and then curled Itself un der Ills Instrument nnd swung Its head In the air, reaching Its fangs out, try ing to put one Into his leg. Mr. Causey signaled to his boat crew, wbo came to Ills relief and killed the snake. It proved to be six nnd a half feet long and of the Boston hornet va riety.

Now Ark In Jewolry. It is snhl that the Jewels at the Tarls Exposition worn worth crossing the ocean to see, ho exquisite were some of tho designs. The value of tho gems wns enormous, of course, hut tho nrt displayed In their mounting, wns what attracted the huge crowds that stood all day long In front ot tho glass eases containing (he jewelry. Among tho remarkable specimens of tlie “new art” In jewel tanking wns n clasp tlint reached half-way down the throat, mul wns about roar Inches In width. It was of bright turquolsc-bluo enamel cut like a cameo, a woman’s head surrounded with leaves. There were three of these bonds In different posi tions upon the clnsp, and each wns divided with diamonds nnd smnll lenves. A very handsome piece was an ornament for the front of a dross, hut could scarcely ho called a brooch, being of too Important n size. It had the body mul wlnga of a dragon-fly, most marvelously worked with enam els mid shaded stones, with the bend of a woman In pale green innlncliltc. A curious comb was In light gray tor toise-shell, something of the size of n Spanish comb, surmounted with branches of itllstlctoc.tbe leaves In gray enamel, and the little white berries 111 pearl. Another striking comb, to be worn nt tlie back of the head, bad colored opnl worked into bunches of hydrangea—a flower tlmt lends Itself very much to decorative purposes, and 1ms become very faslilonnblc of late.
