A SWordfish Kills a Whale.

Visitors to Monterey were entertained
recently by the sight of duel between
an immense whale and a swordhsh,
which ended fatally for the much larger
but more defenceless monster of the
deep. The whale was first seen by
party of bathers one pleasant afternoon
last week, and appeared to be enjoying
himself by lazily swimming about the
bay aud occasionally sending shower
of spray aloft like that thrown up by u
powerful fountain. The presence of the
whale or some other cause seemed to
frighten the small fish that abound In
these waters, and great schools pressed
closely inshcre, the water in places near
the beach being fairly alive with them,
while the surface was kept agitated by
their leaping into the air as though seek
ing to escape from some invisible enemy.
The whale followed the schools of fish
inshore, when suddenly there was a tre-
mendous splashing Of the water, the
great mammal was observed to move
hurriedly hither and thither, while the
contortions of his body and his strange
actions convinced the observers that he
was engaged in mortal combat with some
other monster of the deep. It was a
singular duel and it lasted for some time.
Nothing but the whale was visible, his
enemy never coming to the surface or
within range of those who were watch
ing the scene.
Finally the thrashing ceased, the wa
ter became calm, and the whale was seen
living motionless upon the surface OF the
bay. as if dead. This continued for
some time, but after about an hour he
seemed to revive, and after splashing the
water for sone time with his tail he
headed for the outer bay, where he was
subsequently seen by the aid of glass
to have resumed his motionless condition.
The following morning several per-
sons searched the beach to see if they
could find any trace of the previous days
combat, and they were rewarded by dis
covering the dead body of the whale
nigh and dry on the rocks only short
distance from Monterey. The body
was ConSluerdOly dUoSC lo"-"ote. AAA.AH
and the fins were extended, giving the
impression that the whale had come
ashore himself and afterwards died. 1t
appears, according to the testimony OF
those versed in such matters, that
whale dying in the water has his Tins
close to his sides, and the position in
which they were found lends color to
the belief that the monster was still alive
when it came ashore.
An examination of the body reiealed
the existence of several wounds on the
under side, which were of a character
such as could cnly have been inflicted
bv a swordfish and are conclusive proof
that it was duel between these two den.
izens of the deep that had been witnessed
the previous afternoon.
The carcass measured seventy-hve feet
in length, and the blubber was removed
and tried out. For several days the
stranded whale was the center tor the
entire country about, and many hun
dreds of residents and tourists visited 1t.

life presents no features of special inter-
est, and he had arrived at mans estate
being Just twenty. .one-when he began
to turn his eyes westward. Others of his
neighbors were of the same mind, party
was formed, and the start was made
May 1st, 1874. The way was tedious,
but not particularly exciting, and after
wintering in Oregon, Marshall and his
friends entered California, via Shasta, in
June, 1S45, coming down the sacra-
mento valley. Here the party separated,
Marshall going to Suffers Fort. For
several months he pursued the even
tenor of the dull life at the fort, stocking
plows, making spinning wheels, ,mending
wagons and doing such genera! carpenter
work as was required.
In August, 1s47, sutter started mill
at Coloma, on the American river, plac-
ing Marshall in charge of it, and it was
through the action of the water which
was used as the power of the mill that
gold was first discovered in California.
Among the debris which accumulated
first beyond the mill wheel Marshall saw
on that memorable day OF January "a,
1S4s, what he supposed to be pebbles of
unusual color and Of great weight. he
took them to Sutter, who after careful
examination and test of them with nitric
acid, told him they were gold nuggets.
This was the manner in which gold was
discovered in California.
The news spread like wildfre. The
residents of California sts ted in quest OF
the precious metal and the great gold
fever began which revolutionized the
Pacific coast. But what was other mems
fortune was the discoverer's ruin. Mar
shall engaged in mining with varying
fortunes in various sections, but finally
drifted back to the scene of his dis
covery, and died there in extreme pow
erty few years since.-Ssn Francisco
