CAPTURED By JERSEY PIRATES.
Bioadthirsty Mosquitoes Boards = ship
ON Sandy Hook


New YORK, Sept. 21.-Captain He
blch, of the Hamburg American ship
Normania, has had an experience with
Jersey pirates" as he calls them, that
he is not likely to forget. "Early Sat-
urday morning." said Captain Hebich,
"when my ship was twenty-five miles
off Sandy Hook, / saw wedge
shaped black cloud swiftly moving in
our direction. Seen through q marine
glass the cloud was about ten miles
long and three miles wide at Its base,
from whenc il tapered 10 3 point.
When first seen it WAS about twelve
miles of and the apex of the wedge
was pointed directly at the vessel. The
moving body obscured the sun, and i,
by the great tycoonl it was cloud of
mosquitoes. They enveloped the ship
and attacked the passengers and
crew with bloodthirsty. voracity.
hree hundred steerage passengers
huddIed on the deck were assailed by
thousands of vicious mites that attacked
every exposed bit of skin. The men
swore like pirates, tie women yelled
and the babies shrieked. No one ever
saw such pandemonium on shipboard.
Had vessel passed its officers would
certainly have thought we had mu-
tiny on board. the crew aud passen-
gers rushed below, but they were no
better off there than on deck. for the
insects were so thick in the CABIN that
you could only with difficulty crowd
through them. We got the crew on
deck. but 80 busy we're they kept slap
ping and fighting their tormsntors that
they could not work the sh p. When
we reached Sandy Hook stlff breeze
come up and blew the mosquitoes sea-
ward. Everybody on board" he con-
cluded, ..was swathed in bandages cop
ping with arnics, witch hazel or am on
ia. But you should have heard the
emirrants' comments on . country IN
tested by such blood sucking creatures.
Many of them sald they would not re-
main here"
