American Merchantmen.
AS a rule, the Spanish American
merchantmen yer formidable float

disciplined soldiers. They mounted
many guns of heavy metal. The
''musketeers" were freely furnished
with those bell-mouthed trabucos
which belched out bullets by the
quarter bushel, and were excessively
disagreeable at close quarters; and
they were clothed in ~cuirasses of buff
which would turn a ball. The poop
and the ~forecastle were solid forts,
and the former was furnished with
semicircular galleries, from which the
defenders could fire with command

sides were the lowest, boarding must

leaped to the table and crunched the

snuffed out the candle with his long,

she Can Talk Now and Knows what
10 Said to Her.
Helen Kellar, the remarkable child
who, although born blind and deaf and
dumb, has accomplished SO much that
Is beautiful and inspiring, numbers
among her friends many persons Of
royal station in European courts who
never saw her. One Of these is the
queen Of Greece, who learned Of Helen
through Michael Anagnos, the director
Of the institute for the blind, when he
visited Greece some time ago. The In
terest which the queen took in Helen
was SO intense that she exacted from
Mr.. Anagnos a promise that he would
let her read every letter that Helen
wrote to him while he was at the
Greek capital, and when he was about
to return to this country p induced
him to permit her to retain several of
fine letters that she had read, which
are treasured very highly at the court.
The queen expressed on more than
one occasion her surprise mat Helen,
who is not yet in her teens, should
have SO remarkable a command Of the
unrest English, and limited that the
child might have had some assistance
in the preparation Of her wonderful
letters. But Mr.. Anagnos disposed Of
that thought by informing her majesty
that there was no person connected
with the institution who could write
English So faultlessly pure and sweet
as Helen wrote, since the little girl
never had had an opportunity 70 form
acquaintance with any but the loftiest
models of the language.
Helen has learned to %articulate, and
can speak as freely and fully as any
unaffected person. When she wishes
to hold a long conversation with any
body dear to her, she places one finger,
across the lips of the speaker and a
other on the throat at the larynx. In
fhis way she understands every word
that is uttered as rapidly as could be
understood by a person with good eye
sight and hearing.-Boston Globe.
