An Old Skipper's Tough Yarn.

Down in South street the other
day, says tho Pittsburg Bulletin,
they were talking about a schoon-j

out an old irarinor and said : j
Captain, it seems to me that I’ve
read or heard ot your brig being ,
struck.

yarn spinner.
"Where was it ?
Off Point Aux Barquos, a^out
15 years ago. Very strange case
that. Probably the only ono ol
the kind ever heard of.
Give us the particulars.
Wo,, » "’o were jogging along

took us, and the very first flash ot

and bored a hole as big as my log
right down through the bottom of
the vessel.
A nd she fonndcrcd, of course?
.No. sir, Tho water began rush*
ingand sho would havo foundered,
but there came a second flush and
a bolt struck my foro iop-gallnnt

turned bottom end up, and as it
came down entered the hole and
plugged it up light as a drum.

Superstitioiis Miners.
A remarkable story is told it;
connection with llio explosion oi
the Morja colliery in Wales. It is
stated that recently tho firemen o
the pit—men who are always se¬
lected for gravity and responsibil¬
ity—have heard inexplicable nois*
scs, “shoutings,” as they are called
in the workings, and that tl ct
has not been heard by ono per*
son alone, but by several, when in
company examining the pit. Fur¬
ther a miner returning to tho sur¬
face felt hismelf accompanied by
an invisible presence, which, al¬
though not seen by him, was per¬
ceived by the banksman to land on
the bank, and hastily make its
way' to the shed where tho injured
and dead are now carried. It is
alleged that these strange phenom
ona were described p.cviously to
the explosion and caused several
colliers to refuse to descend, in
spite of their thus becoming liable
to prosecution.—[Now York Sun.
