relates thrilling story of the escape Of
one of his ships boys from the nav of a
shark. The ship was in the tropics, with
wind enough to keep the canvass from
Topping. and one Of the apprentices
was over the weather side, cleaning off.
The captain, standing on the poop
deck, noticed that the boy was careless,
and warned him to look out for himself
and not tumble overheard. The ship
was going about three knots an hour, and
the sea almost as calm as a mill.pond.
The lad, in moment Of carelessness, lost
his balance, and fell from the platform
slung over the side. The captain saw
the accident, and threw him q ladder,
which the boy grasped, and clambered
up on the rounds as the ship left him
astsrn.
No sooner had the boy settled himself
on the ladder than brace Of large blue
sharks ranged up alongside, and actually
reared their heads out of the water In

The slow fighter was a tall
raw.boned specimen of the Pike county
breed, and when he arrived in the mining
camp the boys began to have fun with
him-to "mill him." as they call it in
the parlance of the mines.
He stood it for long time with perfect
equanimity, until finally one Of the party
dared him out of doors to fight.
He went. When they got all ready
and squared off, Pike county stretched
