SETTLING A BRITISH LION.

One day tbs Nipsic put into Gibraltar
to replenish its store of provisions. There
was an English man of war alongside of the
wharf, and on it was a tremendous big
black cat which shrutted up and down toe
main deck like British lion, but he tried
to initiate a camel as soon as he saw
Charles. The latter had his weather eye
open, and he asked the blooming British
beast to come on shore and have few
.ouEds. Immediately all the officers and
sailors CT both vessels gathered around,
and the fel1nes went at it tootl and nail
mostly nail. Betting was about even at
the opening round. but Charley had his
claws fast in John Bulls cats wool in
i1ffy, and in about two jiffies the British
fur and gore was scattered all over the
wharf, and the big fellow would have been
slain if Charley had not been beaten Off in
time.

It Saved the Ship.
Charley, the Mascot of the Man of Var
Nipsic.
Why the Vessel Was Not Wrecked in
The Disastrous Samoan Hurri
cane.

"The Nipsic was saved by a mascot,
said seafaripg man who had spent ears
aboard the vessel when he heard of the
terrible cyclone at Samoa. The Nipsic
was he only one of the three of the
American vessels that withstood the re-
cent hurricane. All the old salts lay the
good fortune of the Nipsic TO the fact
that the mascot was aboard. Sailors are
as superstitious as baseball players. and
indeed they may DE said to be even more
SO. The men on the Nipsic believe that
good luck will attend them just so long
as Charley stays aboard. To iniure the
cat would be serious matter should the
off ander be caught.

CHARLEY, THE MASCOT.

The first name Of the mascot of the
Nipsic is Charley, but nobody seems to
know his last name. Charley is a veter-
an Of the high seas, having been all
around the world number of times, and
he has painted all the big cities of Europe
red upon more than one occasion when
off on lark with his messmates. Thomas
Whelan, who was "a arine on board the
NIps1c for two years, tells some queer
stories ahont Charley.

A Fortunate Druggist.

MI. Edwin W. Joy prosperous druggist
on the corner OF Stockton and Market
streets, III San Francisco, probably never
dreamed of rivaling in wealth the medi-
cine kings of the country. But various
rumors having been floating around TO the
effect that ne has struck ii big, an Examiner
reporter was detailed to unearth the cause.
1t seems that about seven years ago an
English physician, great student of Bot
any, located in this city. His practice
was not extensive, and yet the few cases
that came to him attracted no little atten-
tionE His great success seemed to be in the
treatment Of liver and kidney disorders
and vitiated blood. He seemed almost
infallible, and his well-kept secret was as
much mystery as himself After his de-
parture Mr.. Joy determined to fathom the
secret, and copying all the prescriptions
he had filed for the erratic doctor, he
began a systematic analysis. He discov-
cred running all through the prescript-
ions for liver and kidney troubles, vitiated
blood and stomach disorders couple OF
vegetable extracts indigenous to California
so simple and so well known under homo
ly every day names TO every school boy as
to entirely dissipate the suspicion that
they were the active principles involved.
So certain, however, was Mr.. Joy that he
had discovered the secret that he embod-
led the new elements in a preparation of
Sarsaparilla to disguise the taste, and put
it before his customers under the modest
name of joys Vegetable Sarsaparina I'm
mediately the same stories came back OF
its astonishing effects, and the mystery was
solved, and the talk it has created 'has
already caused it to step into prominence,
and orders pour in daily from all over the
coast. And thus another California indus
try leaps into existence.-S F. Examiner

AoTDhIA. UREoUA:
The morning news., 1889-04-23

souri, to this port to-day on her maiden trip,
she having made but two voyages previous
to this, and both from Baltimore.
Tomorrow at noon Capt. Murrell, by in
vitation of the Maritime exchange, will
hold a public reception at their building,
and tomorrow night he will be the honored
guest at the annual dinner Of the Sons Of
st. George.
The final leave-taking between Capt.
Murrellland the passengers of the Danmark
was affecting in the extreme.
ENGINEER KAAs' DEATH
As to the death Of Engineer Kaas Of the
Danmark there was nothing to be learned;
thore we're no witnesses TO his tragic fate,
aad the only stories heard Of him were
simply matters of conjecture. The most
plausible aud most generally believed story
Of his death is that when he found the shaft
had broken, and was with every
revolution tearing n larger hole in
the Danmarks bottom he made an effort
to turn off the steam in order to stop the
machinery. Perhaps, in an unguarded
moment, or moment of excitement, or be-
coming bewildered, he caused the accident
which cost him his life. Whether it was
the explosion Of steam pipe or the fast re-
volving broken shaft whicn was responsible
for it, will probably never be known.
A FINE VESSEL.
The Missouri is a fine new steel vessel of
l,9OO tons register, built for freight oarry-
ing exclusively, but she carried her heavy
cargo of human life without accident aud
with tolerable comfort. She belongs
to the Atlantic transporter "Rd
Line" Capt. Murrell spoke admiringly OF
the manner in which the unfortunates so
unexpectedly thrown upon his charge had
conducted themselves. The see o of the
meeting between the gallant captain OF the
Missouri and the gentlemen who had gone
down the river in Peter Wright e. Sons
tug Newcastle to meet him, was very
affecting. At Chester tho signal ''You are
welcome" had been hoisted on the flag pole
of the maritime exchange station there, and
flags conveying response 70 this signal
were hoisted on the Missouri.
ovERPowERED THE CAPTAIN.
When the tug ran along side the storm
beaten steamer, those on board, incluline
near friends Of Capt. Murrell and represen-
tatives of the Thingvalla line to which the
Ill fated Danmark belonged, rushed up to
the captains lookout and overpowered him
with the warmth and fervor of their congrat-
ulations. Good boy, Murrell," !" "God bless
you, Captain" and similar exclanIations
came from the party and nearly all en-
braccd and kissed him, at the same time
shedding tears of joy to which the captain
was not ashamed to contribute his share.
Another affecting scene took place when
Rev. DR.. Holm boarded the Missouri and
went among tho people gathered on her
decks bestowing words of good cheer and
encouragement. Meeting Capt. Murrell, he
grasped his hand and exclaimed God
bless you'll God bless you, captain, for saw
ing the lives of these poor people, The
captain protested that he had only done his
duty, and hurrie1 away almost over
whelmed by the fervor of the congratula-
tons of the reverend gentleman.
