The number of prizes that fell to En-
glish fleets and cruisers was enormous,
and many officers grew wealthy on
their prize money. and even common
sailors received sums that might have
made them comfortable for life If they
had only had the prudence to save
them. Certain frigates got the reputa-
ton of being lucky ships. 1t is almost
certain that the luck came from the
frigate being fast one; she had a
smart captain appointed to her, and he,
in turn, gathered round him smart
crew, and luck is always sure 10 be on
the side of those who know how to take
advantage of the chances.
When four Of our frigates captured
two Spanish treasure galleons in 1900
the net amount Of the dollars in them
gave to each captain $40, 900, to each
lieutenant e5,091, midshiprnen received
nearly $500. and sailors and marines
nearly goo. In addition to this, the
value of tine whole stores, rigging,
etc, fell to be divided. When Admiral
Buckworth captured greater part Of
the Lima convoy, he is said Ia have re-
ceived as his share e75,O 600, and each
of the captains e25, 600. In 1869, out
Of the Hermione, Spanish treasure
ship, one captain made SOS, 900. and
each common sailor got nearly $500.
At the taking of Curacao from the
Dutch, the spoil was so valuable that

An Imperial Rescue.

Emperors and Kings, when at home,
are very much like other people. and il.
is doubtless in the small amenities of
life that their real character shows it,
self most truly. An incident of the re.
cent visit of the Emperor of Russia to
his father-in-law, the King OF Dem
mark, at the palace of .Amalienborg, is
ereditable to the Gar, though it put
MIN for a moment in u ridiculous light.
Early one morning, soon after the
arrival of the Car at Amalienborg, the
sentinels who We're guarding the gar
den of the palace We're astonished to
see the Emperor come running out OF
the palace in slippers and shirt-sleeves,
gesticulating wildly and shouting
loudly.
The soldiers knew not what to do.
Had the autocrat of all the Russias
lost his reason. or been attacked by
some mysterious enemy?
The Car soon answered the question
by rushing TO a corner of the garden
where a great barking and bowling
was going on. From the window of
his sleeping-room he had seen one of
his big dogs make an attack on the IA
vorite black cat OF King Christian of
Denmark, and without waiting tosum-
mon servant or even to put on q
coat, he had rushed ont to rescae the
cherished pussy.
He saved the cat, and no doubt
earned the lasting gratitude Of the
King, his host.

WHAT THEY ARE GOOD Fer.


BRANDRETR's PILLS are the best medicine
known.
First-They are purely vegetable, In fact
a medicated food.
Second-The same dose always produces
the same effect-other purgatives require
increased doses and finally cease acting.
Ihird-They purify the blood.
Fourth-They invigorate the digestion
and cleanse the stomach and bowels.
F1th-They stimulate the liver and carry
off vitiated bile and other depraved secre-
tions.
The first two or three doses tell the story.
The skin becomes clear. the eye bright, the
mind active, digestion is restored, costive-
ness cured, the animal vigor is recruited
and all decay arrested.
BRANDRETR's PILLS are sold in every

sugar coated.-Ad.
