A Nineteenth Century Jonah-Jame:
Bartley's Experience

A Nineteenth Century Joneh-James
Bartley'5 Experience.
From the Great Yarmouth England Mercury.
Last February the whaling-ship Star of
the East was in the vicinity of the falkland
Islands searching for whales, which were
very scarce. One morning the lookout
sighted a whale about three miles away on
the starboard quarter. Two boats were
manned. In short time one of the boats
was near enough TO enable the harpooner
to send a spear into the whale, which
proved to be an exceedingly large
one. With the shaft in Its side the ami
NAL sounded and then sped away, dragging
the boat after him with terrible speed. He
swan straight away about five miles, when
he turned and came back, almost directly
towards the spot where he had been har-
pooned. The second boat waited for him,
and when but a short distance away from it
be rose 60 the surface. As soon as his back
showed above the surface of the water the
harpooner in the second boat drove another
spear into him. The pain apparently crazed
the whale; for 1t thrashed about fearfully,
and it was feared that the boats would be
swamped and the crews drowned. Finally
the whale swan away, dragging the two
boats after him, He went about
three miles and sounded or sank, and his
whereabouts could not be exactly told. The
lines attached TO the harpoons were slack.
and the harpooners began slowly to drag
them in and coil them III the tubs. As soon
as they we're tautened. the whale arose to
the surface and beat about with its tail In
the maddest fashion. The boats attempted
to get beyond the reach Of the animal
which was apparently in its death agonies,
and one of them succeeded, but the other
was less fortunate. The whalestruck 1t with
his nose and upset it, The men were thrown
into the water, and before the crew of the
other boat could pick them up one man was
drowned and James Barley had disap-
peared.
When the whale became quiet from ex-
haustion the waters were searched for Bart
ley, but he could not be found, and, under
the impression that he had been struck by
tue whales tail and sunk to the bottom, the

wELBoRN's STORY PARTLY CoRRoBoRATED
BRIDGEPORT, CONN, Feb. 15.-Albert NJ
Stanton, well-kuown citizen and treasurer
Of the Bridgeport rolling mills, received u
letter yesterday from man named Sols-
burg stating that the yacht Nyssa, formerly
owned by Mr.. Stanton, had been wrecked
off Norfolk Va.
Accompanying the information was the
request for good sized sum of money TO
put the yacht in shape again. The yacht
was MIR. StEntoD's property until last No
ve1nber. Then he sold ic 10 Charles e. Wei
born Of Brooklyn. From Weiborn Mr..
Stanton received two notes for the full
amount, the price being about 81, 500. Soon
afterward he gave the notes to a New York
man for another yacht which was better
suited to his tastes than the Nyssa.
Mr. Stanton thought no more of the
transaction until aoout Dec. L, when he
learned from the New York man that the
notes were Of no value. As the notes had
boen accepted without question, Mr.. Stan
ton, of course, held that he could not be ex-
pected to make them good. He had sup
posed that the paper was perfectly good.
The gentleman who had accepted them
looked at the matter in the same light and
at once declared war on Welborn. He has
been looking for him ever since.

survivors rowed back to the ship. The
whale was dead. and In a few hours the
great body was lying By the ships side, and
the men were busy with axes and spades
cutting through the flesh to secure the fat.
They worked all day and a part of the
night. They resumed operations the next
forenoon, and were soon down to the stom-
ach, which was to be hoisted 10 the deck.
Tbs ,workmen were startled
to fasten the chain about it to
discover something doubled up in it that
gave spasmodic signs of life. The vast
pouch was hoisted to the deck and cut open,
and inside was found the missing sailor
doubled up and unconscious. He was laid
out on the deck and treated TO a bath Of sea
water which soon revived him. but his
mind was not clear, and he was placed in
the captains quarters, where he remained
for a fortnight a raving lunatic. He was
! carefully treated by the captain aud officers
of the ship, and he finally began to get pos
session OF his senses.
At the end of the third week he had en-
tirely recovered from the shock, and re-
sumed his duties. During the brief sojourn
in the whales belly Bartley's skin, where it
was exposed to The action OF the gastric
juices, underwent a striking change. His
face ard hands were bleached to e deashly
whiteness. and the skin was wrinkled, Civ
ing the man the appearance of having been
parbolled. BARLEY aftirms thnt he would
probably have lived inside his house OF flesh
| until he starved. for he lost his sanses
through fright, and not through lack of air
He says that he remembers the sensation of
being lifted into the air by the nose of the
whale, and of falling into the water; then
there was a fearful rushing sound, which he
believed to be the beating Of the water by
the whales tail then he was ancomnassad
by fearful darkness, and he felt himself
slipping along a smooth passage of some sort
that seemed to move and carry him for
ward. This sensation lasted but an instant,
then he felt that he had more room. He
felt about him, and his hands came in con-
tact with a yielding Shiny substance that
seemed to shrink from his touch. 1t finally
dawned upon him that he had been swal-
lowed by the whale, and be was overcome
with horror at the situation. He could
breathe easily, but the heat was terrible

SKIN and to draw out his vitality. He be-
came very week and grew sick at the stom>
ach. He know that there was no hope Of
escape from his strange prison. Death
stared him In the face. and be tried to look
at il bravely; but the awful quiet, the
fearful darkness, the horrible knowledge
of his environments and the terrible heat
finally overcame him, and be must have
tainted, for the next he remembered was
being in the captains cabin.

he could pass a night without having his
sleep disturbed with narrowing dreams of
