e w ora running down between the
Azores and Madeira when I got my first
sight of the whale which had been known
to too whaling fleet for five years ;
Wicked Bill. A whale known as Mocha
UiCK had a career of 10 or 12 rears An
other known as Dom *Pedro destroyed
'TA’-t boats and killed la men and passed
out of sight, after seven or eight years.
The whale known as Wicked Bill made
Ins debut, so to speak, off the Falkland
islands, Cape Horn, where he staved two
boats and carried off two harpoons be-
HE SEEMED TO STAND ON IIIS TAIL,
longing to the ship Yankee Land of Nan
tucket. He was estimated to be 00 feet
long, and at some time he had injured bis
head in such a manner as to leave a V
shaped scar plainly visible half a mile
away. Off the mouth of the La Plata
the same season lie staved a boat and car
ried off a harpoon belonging to the bark
Chieftain of Aberdeen. It was the cus
tom among whalers to “pass along" a
whale which had escaped after creating
any havoc, or which had displayed an
unusually ugly temper when attacked,
and after a couple of seasons Wicked
Bill was pretty well known to all whale
men. During the first five years of his
career this fish was credited with the de
struction of more than a dozen whale
boats, entailing a loss of almost as many
lives. During that time he was harpooned
nine or ten times. A Russian merchant
brig named the Orel espied him in the
north Atlantic one afternoon with a har
poon sticking out of his back and so
many coils of line around his body that
his activity was greatly interfered with.
Ho was rolling about on the surface
when night came on, and the brig left
him astern, but at 9 o'clock, without any
one aboard having caught sight of him
or suspecting his presence, became rush
ing down from the windward, struck the
craft amidships, and 15 minutes later she
was on her way to the bottom. The crew
got away in the yawl without water or
provisions, and the whale was circling
round the spot at the time. The boat
was fortunately picked up next’day, and
the whaling fleet was notified as fast as
possible of Wicked Bill’s latest move.
The whaling ship James Crosby of Sa
lem had a singular adventure with this
whale the next season. On the morning
of the 13th of April, when she was about
100 miles to the east of Capo St. Roque,
with the wind very light and the sea
without a white cap, the.fish rose to the
surface a cable's length to windward and
so quietly that the first sign of 10= pres
ence was the peculiar odor always given
out by whales. He was beaded the same
way as the ship, and for two hours he
kept her company. His identity was es
tablished at the first glance, and there
was no thought of attempting his cap
ture. On the contrary, orders were giv
en for the crew to move about as quietly
as possible, and the course of the craft
was changed from south to southwest.
The whale shifted his course to keep her
company. She was then headed due
west, but he still kept her company.
■When she was brought back to her orig
inal course, Wicked Bill was still a ca
ble’s length to windward. After a few
weeks a harpoon driven into a whale
rusts off close to what may bo called the
skin, and while that portion of the iron
remaining in his blubber may cause him
no pain it creates a swelling, which as
sumes a whitish appearance. Three such
spots were to be seen on the side of the
whale nearest the ship. He maintained
his position from 7 to 9 o'clock and then
suddenly and silently sank from sight.
Twenty^eight days later and 750 miles
to the southeast the Crosby lowered for
a whale just after dinner. The mate’s
boat got fast, and the fish towed her six-
miles to windward before he could be
lanced. He was in his death throes and
circling about when a w halo widen e\ or\
mun recognized as W icked Bill breached
close beside him, shot upward until he
seemed to stand on his tail and then fell
right across the other and carried him
out of sight. The line had to be cut to
prevent the boat being drawn under, and
neither whale was seen again.
My second glimpse of Wicked Bill oc
curred three ya»v :i ^ er ** ie ^ rs “’ and ^
am one of the i or six men still living
who got a last view of him. I was one
of the crew of the Plymouth whaler
Wanderer, and we sighted the fish about
miles to the west of the island of St
Helena. He was tail on to us and mak
ing slowly to windward when discovered
by"the lookout, and we therefore had no
show to identify him. I was aloft with
a glass when our three boats struck the
water and have always felt sure the
whale got instant warning. He stopped
almost at onco and began swimming in
a circle; When liis big bead swung
around. I plainly saw the big V shaped
scar and called out to the captain that
he might stop the boats. They had got
away, however, and as he did not put
much faith in the many tough yarns he
had heard about this fisli he decided to
let them have a try at him. It proved to
be the worst thing he could have done.
The mate’s boat had the lead and got
within striking distance first. As soon
**3 the harpoon entered, the whale settled
away like a rock and went down 850
Then lie turned and rushed for
surface like a wild locomotive,
feet.

fall. Ho rested a moment arid then
slewed around and started for the boat.
He caught it with a swing of his jaw and
made splinters of it and killed three men
at the same time. For five minutes the
mat**, who was supporting himself by an
ear, was alongside the fish and rubbing
against his body, but he finally pushed
himself clear and reached one of the
other boats. The monster had the three
boats at liis mercy, but for some reason
was satisfied with the destruction of the
first. Perhaps it was because the others
remained perfect!}- quiet while lie seemed
to be searching for them. Fifteen min
utes after destroying the boat he moved
slowly away, and-those who had escaped
liis fury returned to the ship. We were
at this time over half full of oil.
One hundred and fourteen days later,
when 400 miles west of the island of
Tristan d’Acunha in the south Atlantic,
we cut in our last whale, cleared the
decks of the tryworks and set our course
for Plymouth. We were full to the
hatches, and thus far had made one of
the best seasons on record. In about
three days we had the ship cleaned up
and most of the smoke and grease washed
off our bodies, and we were about to be
gin painting wlien at noon on the fourth
or fifth day after turning on our heel for
home a whale suddenly breached right
astern of us aiid not more than 300 feet
away. 1 was at the wheel at the time,
and wo were going off before a 4-knot
breeze from tne southeast. I heard the
whale as be broke water, and the sight
of him standing on liis tail caused me to
shout au alarm. Half a dozen of the
crew saw him as he fell back on tlie
water, and it seemed to all of us as if he
were going to strike the ship. His fall
raised three or four waves which pitched
the ship about as if we were lying to in
a gale, and though the monster settled
away out of right at once we had identi
fied him as Wicked Bill. It may seem
queer to you to read that every man
aboard, from captain to apprentice, was
badly frightened as soon as it was knowi
that our old enemy had hunted us down,
as it were. We had left him almost four
months before at a point 2,000 miles
away, and yet he had overhauled us, as
if he had been a steamer sent in search
and posted as to our cruising ground.
His breaching so near us was taken as
evidence of liis evil intentions, and some
argued that he had meant to strike the
ship.
All work was at once suspended, and
the men were ordered to move around
the decks on tiptoe. We hoped the levi
athan had not seen us, and that liis
breaching so close aboard was quite acci
dental, and after half an hour had passed
away without further sight of him every
body began to feel easier. A man had
just started aloft with a glass to scan the
sea when the whale rose to the surface
about a stone’s throw to windward. In
most cases a whale comes to the surface
head oh and thrusts at least half his
length out of water. In sounding he
generally goes down head first, and his
flukes whip the water as they disappear.
But a whale can rise to the surface in a
horizontal position so quietly as to
scarcely cause a ripple, and lie can settle
away as rapidly as if lie had tons of rock
pulling him down. Wicked Bill had
simply floated to the surface, heading
with the ship, and now we all felt that
mischief was brewing. We had all
heard the story of his keeping company
witli the James Crosby for a couple of
hours and then quietly going his way.
and we hoped to be equally fortunate.
Not a stroke of work was done aboard,
“HANG ONl FOR YOCR LIVES, HANG ON!”
and the men conversed in whispers and
kept out of sight as much as possible.
Our speed, as 1 stated, was about four
knots an hour. With the glass leveled
on the rail we could bring the whale
right alongside, but even then we could
not detect the slightest movement of
flukes or fins to give him progress. At 2
o’clock p. m., as he still kept his place,
the yards were quietly braced a bit, and
the ship fell off three or four points.' He
instantly altered his course to keep Ms
distance. After half an hour she was
brought back to her course, and lo! he
luffed at the same moment. From noon
till 5 o’clock we were as much depressed
as if we had had a corpse aboard. It was
5:05, I believe, when the whale disap
peared, but for an hour after that we
continued to speak in whispers and tip
toed about. I am satisfied that not one
captain in a hundred would have done
what ours did that evening. No living
man could charge him with cowardice or
superstition, but when supper was over
he called Ms mates and boat steerersinto
tlie cabin and said:
“While I hope we have seen tlie last of
the whale, I think it my duty to prepare
for trouble. You will therefore see the
boats overhauled and provisioned and
ready for hoisting out.”
Before 10 o'clock every boat was ready.
Tha wind had freshened a bit as the 6un
went down, and the nig’ Twas clear and
rtarlight. The watch was changed at
10, and everything ran smootMy until
in hour after midnight. Then the odor
of a whale sudddenly saluted the nos
trils of the men, and they looked to
windward to catch sight of a great black
hulk on the water, It was Wicked Bill
a<unn/ A whale cannot remain under
vvater fvbeyjp 50 minutes at. .the .extreme
liTnit, arid where fills' monster”lied juTT-T
the eight hours we could not guess. If
he had run to windward when he set
tled away at 5 o’clock, he had traveled
such a distance before coming up again
that we had failed to detect 1ns spout.
We had sailed at least 40 miles since los
ing sight of Mm, and yet he had some
how picked ns up again. Word was
passed around, and all hands turned up,
and from 1 to 3 we were in a state of
suspense. At about 3 the whale began
lashing the water with his flutes. We
had done nothing to arouse him. but he
probably thought it was time to begin
business. As soon as he began “fluk
ing” we prepared ourselves for a calam
ity, and it was not long delayed. When
he had churned an acre or more of sur
face to foam, he slewed around and
headed straight for us, but miscalcu
lated our speed and passed astern,
though clearing the rudder by not more
than five feet. As he rushed away to
leeward, swinging his head and thrash
ing the water, we luffed sharp up until
we were heading due east. Meanwhile
I was watching the whale through tlie
night glass- I think he ran u full mile
before turning. Whether he located us
by sight or sound no man can say, but
as he slewed around I saw that he would
come head on for our stern. As lie start
ed on his mad rush the ship’s head was
brought due north again in hopes to
avoid him, but ho changed his course as
well and came down on our port quar
ter. I believe that every man in tho ship
had Ms eyes on the furious leviathan as
he came bearing down upon us. His head
was carried so high that it seemed as if a
big rock was pushing along the surface,
and he left behind him a great wake of
foam and a sea which would have
swamped a yawl.
“Hang on! For your lives, hang on!”
shouted the captain as he saw what was
coming, and i5 seconds later there was a
shock as heavy as if we had struck a rock
while running before a hurricane.
Every soul aboard knew the sliip was
doomed. She was heeled to starboard
until almost on her beam ends, and the
instant she settled back there was a rush
for the boats. No one gave tlie whale
further attention, but every effort was
put forth to get the boats into the water
as the ship was luffed into the wind. Her
decks were awash as the last one got
away, and that was about 14 minutes
after she was struck. When we came to
look around for Wicked Bill, he had dis
appeared from sight, and no whaler ever
reported seeing him after that. It has
always been generally believed that he
received injuries that caused Ms death.
We were picked up three days later by a
Scotch whaler none the worse in health
for our adventure, but the small fortune
which that rich cargo would have given
every man if safely landed had gone to
the bottom of the Atlantic. It was a
funny coincidence that at about that date
an English naturalist published a work
in which he said the whale was as timid
as a hare and could not be goaded into
taking the offensive against its most re
lentless enemy—man.
People With Musical Kducations.
In extolling the value of musical edu
cation we ignore tlie notorious fact that,
as a rule, those who excel in the knowl
edge and practice of music excel in noth
ing else. With few exceptions great
musicians are cMldren in every other
branch of cultivation. They are defi
cient in the logical faculty and seem in
capable of acquiring exact knowledge.
No one ever heard of a musician who
was great as a statesman, or as a soldier,
or as an orator, or as a writer, or as a
lawyer, or as a doctor, or as a master of
any department of science. When we
bid our girls neglect their books and
their studies of life to concentrate their
thoughts on the keyboard, we invite them
to sacrifice their usefulness for the bar
ren satisfaction of being able to produce
more or less musical sounds.—San Fran
cisco Argonaut.
"Woman’s Passion For Odd Hiding Places.
The curious places in which women
conceal their valuables is every little
while brought to light by some accident
to the same. It was discovered at a fire,
for instance, that the savings of years of
a poor woman had been lost by the de
struction of a stuffed armchair, in the
crevices and folds of which she had
tucked away the bills. Again, a woman
going away for a day hides a box of val
uables in tlie ash barrel, and finds on her
return that some other member placed
it on the sidewalk, from whence it had
been emptied of its contents. Women
delight in hiding riches in old stockings,
in piece bags, in cushion linings, under
a board in tho floor, in books, any and
everywhere least expected and least safe.
—Brooklyn Eagle.
Not Up In Botany.
A widow who had just buried her
dead husband went to a florist’s and or
dered a rosebush and planted it on Ms
grave. She expected that it would take
care of itself, but when she visited the
cemetery in the fall to gather her roses
she was surprised to find that instead of
roses only tlie little red hips remained,
the petals having long ago disappeared.
She accordingly went back to the florist’s
and accused him of selling her a cran
berry bush!—Boston Courier.

Solved by Chance.
For centuries mathematicians had en
deavored to work out tho solution of a
problem of vast importance to the world
—namely, at what point shall certain
lines meet so as to give the most room
with tho least material and have the
greatest strength in a building? This
problem is said to have been worked out
by a noted Scotch mathematician, Mr.
McLaugMand, who fer many years had
been engaged in tlie solution. After al
most despairing of success he accident
ally discovered and thoroughly examined
the honey bees’ cell one day and im
mediately realized that the problem was
solved. After laborious and careful cal
culations he verified Ms discovery. It
was a surprise to the world to know that
what the mathematicians were in search
of for centuries was in common use by
the bee all the time, and no “fool” ever
realized it until the accidental discovery
of Mr. McLaughland. Then everybody
said “How easy it is!”—Boston Herald.
Improved Rubber Toys.
Rubber toys, on account of their dura
bility and hannlessness, have long been
a staple article and are today found in
the shops in much the same form as they
were a dozen years ago. An improve
ment in this line designed to give a new
impetus to theso goods has been patent
ed by Mr. Orville Carpenter of Paw
tucket, R. I., and by means of ‘which
such toys. Y'hen intended to represent
images of human beings and animals,
can bo made to illustrate the most mar
velous peculiarities without adding to
the cost of production.
This improvement consists in making
these hollow images of varying thick
nesses of rubber, so that when squeezed
by the hand the thinner parts expand
out of all proportion to tlie rest of the
image, producing an endless variety of
grotesque and ludicrous variations of
the same image, according to the amount
of compression given by the hand.—Ex
