had just set In. During his exposure in the
boat he estimates that IL rained about half
the time. This rain was a godsend to him,
for without 1t he should have died of tn irst
With square piece OF driftwood he con-
structed q four-pronged spear for catching
fish. In each corner of this piece of wood
he made hole In which a pointed slip OF
bamboo was inserted, long and sharp
pointed. On the reverse side, In the center,
through another hole cut with his old knife,
was fastened handle, and with this i'm
piement Antonio speared fish enough TO
sustain life for some time. At night little
birds would slight on his boat or In the
water near it, and sometimes he succeeded
in catching one. These birds were very tame
and easily caught. Once be was reduced to
the extremity of having 10 live for three
days on the body of one OF those little birds
dried In the sun. But it must not be sup
posed that these were his only privations.
There were times when he had neither FISH
nor flesh to sustain him, and then, in order
TO keep his ebbing life from sinking away,
he was driven to expedients that
CAN NOT BE CALMLY CONTEMPLATED.
Part of the time he subslsted on the drifting
"sea grass" as be called 1t. All the imple-
ments OF his ingenuity, saved with himself
and the boat, are now In the possession of
Capt. Stanley, OF the Centsur. The only
member of the Toronto's company whose
name Antonio knew was that OF Smith, the
second mate. He also knows that the car
penter's name was John, but does not know
his surname. This Is accounted for by An
tonlo's inability to speak English. He barely
understands in that tongue the meaning of
some marine jargon. Even Spanish, his
only language, he speaks very imperiectly'
The people on board the Centaur have been
trying TO determine the exact length of time
Antonio was exposed. He is himself little
confused about the matter. He Is positive,
however, that he was in the long boat ''three
Sundays" and no ,Iture experience through
which he may pas tthough he Is still but "a
years old. con wipe out bitter recollection
going TO Greytown and passing near Nsvaza
the Centaur experienced violent hurricane.
This was about thirty-ive days before she
picked up Antonio, and she had meanwhile
passed int port, had discharged and taken
on board cargoes, and was on the return voy-
age. The Toronto was, as far as can be ascer-
tanned from Antonio, bark OF some five
hundred tuns burden, and was bound 10
Hull, England, with guano. Be did not
know whether she would touch at any other
port to complete the cargo. Before being
picked up it is supposed he drifted nearly
five hundred miles from the place at which
the vessel broke up. Antonio says the To-
ronto drifted toward the shore, after being
abandoned, before sinking. The castaway
is profoundly grateful to his rescuers, anC
captains permission. The Centaur was
thirty-five days fsom Greytown. She wal
five days north of Hatteras, encounterinl
| strong northeast and northwest gales, wheI
she sighted the drifting boat with its living
skeleton.

A STORY OF THE SEA

WHAT sHIPwRECKED MATE SAW on Gu
BA's CoAsT-FoUR DEAD BODIES ON A
REEF.
The New York Herald OF Sunday says
that Frederick Hoffman Is the mate OF the
brig Sarah s. Kennedy, now lying at the
foot OF Congress street, Brooklyn. He ar
rived here in the brig Palo Alto on the 30th
of October, with three sailors of the brig
Helen G.. Rich, which was wrecked on the
18th of September on Damas Key, on the
Cuban coast. Hoffman tells the following
thrilling story: 81 won't say anything
about the loss of the Helen G. Rich. She
was staunch brig, and another good ship
lies among those treacherous shoals and
keys. What you want TO know, take IL, is
the awful discovery we made after we were
shipwrecked. On the fifth day, after we
went ashore on the key, noticed not far off
several polls standing in the rocks. /
pointed these out to the captain and offered
to go over to the spot to see If there was
another wreck. There they stood, black
and sharp aginst the blue sky. They seemed
sometimes as IL they were signalling to me.
The captain said L could go over. A boat
was manned, and l rowed over with two OF
our sailors to the poles, which were about
two miles off. AS we bore near the shore.
found we were coming on wreck of great
ship, entirely dismasted, the black hull of
which was nearly all under water. When
we landed
WE FOUND EVERYWHERE SIGNS OF THE
WRECK,
bits of masts, spars, sails, and here and there
some rotten cordage. The Key was nearly a
half mile long. But, the most curious part
of all, near where we landed was round hut
of stones, piled foot or two high, and COW
cred with timber, hatchways and bits of OIL
cloth. Now, we went to work to take of this
strange root, and what should we see in the
bright sunlight but two dead bodies. They
were black and decomposed, but their
dresses showed that they had been sailors
like ourselves. They had on short monkey
jackets and rough pantaloons, but
the weather had rotted them into
rags. Under the drift wood near
by we found another body. This
one had on shirt, pantaloons and boots.
When attempts were made to move the
bodies they fell to pieces. No papers could
be found on the clothing, and no one can
tell how long those poor bodies had been
decsying in that desolate spot. The poles
had first seen were planted near the hut,
and probably some day flags of distress bad
been flying from their tops: but no human
eyes had turned that way. We rowed
around the hull, but she lay so deep we
could find no name. | reported to the
captain the discovery, and when we we 1t
to Sagua la Grande latter rowing In an
open boat for 81 miles-he reported he ca 70
to the American consul there. As not bit
of ship bread or other food was found near
the bodies, think those poor fellows must
have starved TO DEATH"

A wELIrMERITED SUCCESS

SONG AND SIN.

BEAUTIFUL BRUNETTE INFATUATES A NEW
YORK JUDGE, AND HE sUCCUAIRs To THE
FAsCINATIoN-DIsHoNoR TO THE BENCH.
The New York Sun says that in 1859 Miss
Jennie Bull, a beautiful brunette, probably
25 years of age, Joined the choir of Zion
Church. Judge Charles ii. Van Brunt, OF
the Superior Court, his fair wife and two
beautiful children attended the burcb, aud
the Judge was q vestryman and one
of the committee on music Judge
van Brunt was often in consuIta-
ton with the choir regarding altera-
tons of the musical programme, and it was
observed that between Miss Bull and him
self pleasant relations were soon estab-
lished. They chatted together alter service,
but. on account of Judge Van Rrunt,s
official connection with the choir their
chatting was not needed. Miss Bull sang
during the two succeeding years In Zion
Church, and then, without advancing any
other reason than choice, she Joined the
choir OF st. Marks church, at Second ave.
nue. and Stuyvesent street. Last spring
Judge and Mrs. Van Brunt were divorced in
by Justice Bslcom of the
Supreme Court, the cause being adultery,
according to
AN ALLEGED CONFESSION TO MRS. VAN BRUNT
in Paris. The separation was only nomi-
nal, at least apparently, Judge and Mrs.
Van Brunt living for several weeks under
the same roof at n West Thirtieth street,
