The Story Told by the Luekiest Of Ali
KhaIerS.
The Mary D. Hume Stood the Voyage Very
Well, but She Came Down on
Slow Time.

The Iuckiest of all whaling craft, tho
Mary ID. Hume, came into port yesterday.
Such story of whaling a that of Cap.
tain Ben III ton. the master of the Hume,
was never told before.
II is the record OF a wonderful voyage.
IT was luck, luck, luck. from start to
finish.
The whalers took thirty-eight whales
the largest catch ever recorded.
The tale OF the lonely winter in the Arc
sic darkness is well tod by the captain,
and win prove of great interest to 1.-THE
Calls" readers.
People interested in whaling have for sew
eral days past been anxiously watching for
the arrival of the steam whaler Mary d.
Hume.
Their hopes were realized. early yesterday
morning by the long looked-for vessel COM
ing into port.
As soon as it was known she was inside
the Golden Gate dozens of boats put out TO
meet her.
Some were tugboats chartered by the
owners. others were small rowboats and
the latter included all the boarding house
runners in town.
The vessels could hardly hold the large
crowd that went out and boarded her and a
few of the men went away without being
able TO find place to hook on.
The men on the Hume showed their good
sense by not leaving the vessel until she
was safely locked at the oil works.
The whaler presented very battered ap-
pearanee. which it was impossible to get rid
of even with the large number of bright
eolnred flags that were run up.
Still she steamed along at a fair rate and
attracted great deal of attention from the
sailors along the front. many OF whom
shouted and waved their hats.
When she landed at the oil works pier
the crew sprang over the side of the vessel
as il the plague were after them.
A few of the men were affected with
