Wide
Tlie Ships That are lai.t on the
Ocean.
From tho New York Tribune.
Oa the 20th of last January the good
clipper ship Farragut, Capt. Hardwinke,
sailed from Calcutta homeward bound-
From that time nothing hns been heard of
her, for the report that htr wreck had been
seen some 1,200 miles from Calcutta does
not appear to have any solid foundation.
She passed away into the ocean like so
many atanneh vessels before her, and the
irobabilily is that her fate will never be
known. Already Bhe has been struck off
tlie maritime list, which mean that she is
definitely given up as lost. The records of
marine disaster contain many more cases
of thi* kind than landsmen would be apt to
suppose. A ship leaves |>ort apparently
in good condition, her cargo well stowed,
her spars sound, and generally well found.
After that nothing is ever heard of her,
and conjecture is vain. A sudden squall
may have taken her aback and sent her to
the bottom stern foremost, or she may have
foundered in a gal. after all her boats had
been destroyed, or her boats may have got
away and perished one by one on the wide
ocean plains, t-emetimef, but rarely, there
has been u mutiny and massacre, and the
survivors may have made their way to
some tropical Island, there to live as
“beach-combers” or turn savage with the
When fire occur* at sea 6n a merchant
vessel, unless the weather is very bad at
the time, the crew generally succeed in get
ting away. A mutiny may be followed
by tlie burning of a ship as a means of de
stroying criminal evidence. In the China
seas there are still some pirates, and a ves
sel becalmed in the neighborhood of some
of-the islands scattered in group* there
might incur the danger of attack by the
w icked-looking junks that arc usually con
cealed in the passage* between the inlets.
In such case if there were no firearms on
board it might go hard with the ahip’a
company, hut a good supply of shotgunsor
rides in the haml* of white men is usually
a guarantee against Chinese pirates. Still,
many vessels have met their fate in that
unlucky region* and nothing has remained
to tell the story. Typhoons, arc doubtless
responsible for not a few mysterious disap
pearance* of ve*seis, and once in a while
probably a waterspout bursts over a ship
and sinks her suddenly with *11 hand*. In
the Indian Ocean furious squalls often
come up at night with a swiftness very
menacing to any heavv-spirred clipper
slipping along with studdingsails set alow
sed aloft, and here again is u possible
cause of destruction, and one which might
overtake the most cautious skipper if his
officers were less sedulous in consulting tlie
glass.
Occasionally the mysteries are presented
in the most bewildering way. Kuch a case
wns that of a vessel which several years
ago, was found drifting witli all sail set
and not n soul on board. All her boats
were on tlie davits, the materials for a
meal were in the galley coppers, the chro
nometers, compasses, charts and instru
ments were in the cabin, but no ship’s pa
pers. The name on the stern was painted
out; nothing had been left by which to
identify her. Yet all these precautions
had been taken deliberately, while the
final evacuation seemed to have been ef
fected with a suddenness suggesting mortal
panic. The men's things were all in the
toii-gallant forecastle; the captain’s and
officers’ eflects were all in their respective
cabins under the poop. The whole appear
ance of the vessel indicated that her peo
ple bad left her on the spur of the mo
ment, driven by some overmastering im
pulse or fear. She had encountered no
bad weather since the desertion. Her
ynrds were braced up ns for a trade wind,
mid there wns nod border on her decks or
down below. No line of writing was found
to give n clew to this dark secret of the
sea, and to this day it has remained an in
soluble puzzle to every seaman acquainted
with the facts. Sad and mysterious as are
disappearances sucli as that of the Furra
gut, it must be admitted that there is
something even more perplexing in the
discovery of derelicts abandoned so incom
prehensibly as was tlie vessel here referred
to. It should be added that she was not
leaking, nor were her spars sprung or
strained, and no reason could lie perceived
in anything about her for the disappear
ance of her crew and officer*.
IS1TTKN BY A H AT.
Keninrkabls Attack Upon a Deltnar Avenue
llahy.
From the St. Louis Republic.
It has often been said,and cases are cited
to that efiect, that rats, driven to despara-
lion by hunger or thirst, wilt attack a liv
ing human being. Their love for the dead
is proverbial, but it has now to be recorded
where a rat, living in a prosperous neigh
borhood where food is plenty, attacked a
baby with the evident intention of feeding
upon it. Tlie habv is the two-year-old boy
oi J. Boss Appier of the Appier & Hodge
Furnishing Goods Company on Olive
street, near Seventh. Mr. Appier and his
wife nnd family occ ipy a neatly-built,two-
story stone-front at 3911 Dclmar avenue.
Mr. Appier, his wife and baby, sleep in
tlie second story hack room, and during
the summer it is their custom to leave the
windows open and also the folding doors
leading into the front room.
Wednesday night they retired a* tuna!,
the baby being last asleep at the time in a
crib by it* mother's side. About 2:30
o’clock'yesterday morning the thunder
storm and heavy rain came up, and the
peals of thunder and flashes of lightning
awoke everyone in the house. Mr. Appier
:»-osc and put all the windows down and
shutout tin- dashes of lightning by clo-ing
the storm blind*. During all the thunder
storm and the excitement in the bedroom
the baby slept sweetly on. Mr. and Mr*.
Appier again retired, bat were hardly
asleep when the little one, with a K r.
of nniti and fright, bounded into tlie bed
ami huddled close to its mother’s breast,
trembling ns with a chili.
Mrs. Appier thought the child suddenly
awakened from a (earful dream, and tried
to soothe it by telling it no one was going
to do any harm, but the little fellow
would not stop crying, and threw himself
across his father, Mr. Appier got up mid
walked around the room with the child i n
his arms for h few minutes, and its crying
finally ceased. The baby was placed in
his little crib again, and once more it was
aoi*t. ‘ While walking with the child Mr.
Appier felt its clothes and found them wet
about tlie arms and breast, and he thought
the CUM was perspiring very freely.
Mr. Appier woke etraut 7 o’clock end
opened the blinds, letting in the sunlight.
As he turned to the bed he was horrified ai
finding blood all over it and upon his wife’s
face, shoulder* and night dress. Thought*
of dark deeds and cold-blooded murders
Hashed through bis mind. In an instant he
had pulled his better half into a sitting pos
ture nnd was overjoyed to find her alive. He
called her attention to the blood and she in
turn pointed to his night dress, which was
red with blood iron] top to bottom. They
glanced toward the baby, who was awake
and kicking, but before’either could
and kicking, but before citncr could gasp
words of horror, the little fellow held up
his right arm and crowed, “me, me.” The
little right arm, the night gown and the
bed clothes on the crib were clotted with
blood. The baby did not seem to be suff
ering and the frightened parents began an
excited examination of his anatomy. They
found that all the blood came from a
wound in the baby’s right arm, about two
inches below the elbow. How he received
the wound they could not imagine, and
without loss of time Dr. Wilcox was called.
He examined it aud said it was a rat bite.
It was then all clear to the
parents. A scratch on the middle
finger showed where the rodent had jump-
ed ; Above the wrist were marks of the
animal’s teeth in three separate places, but
ne|lher of them penetrn'rd lienesth the
skin. The fourth bile, l.oievi ,-, sank deep
into the hahy’s flrsli, muck u vein mid a
copious flow of bliMHl was the leault. Tlun
the baby awoke and jumped on its pareula’
bed, covering them »ith blunt. They re
member cow nf the Utile mttr’s endeavor*
to show what was aiiiag him, but which
they could not undenttmid at the time.
Dr Wilcox sai.l that if Die tishy had not
bledso profusely ho would hove lie. n |Hiis-
oned, and again, if he had let his arm
hangover the side of the crib, he would
have bled to death. The parents are ex
ceedingly grateful iliat the accident did
not result either way. A remarkable part
of the story is tli.il k rat has never been
seen in the neighborhood, and should oi.e
be there, it would find plenty of food in
the alley. It is thought ihv rat was
frightened by the thunder and lightning
ami rushed wildly a .«ut until it found
itself in the crib and then bit the baby.
