WANTED TO DIE RICH.
The Strange Resolve Of Sailor on a Sink
 ing Ship.

The Strange Resolve Of a Sailor on a Sink
 ing Ship.
 Many years ago, according to one of the yarns of the sea told by mariners who claimed to have been present, a British ship having on board large consignment of Spanish dollars for a house in Rio Jaheiro was wrecked on the Brazilian coast. Hoping to save some of his precious cargo the captain ordered some of the casks containing the gold brought on deck, but the ves- sel was so badly wrecked by the con tinuous pounding on the rocks, that it was soon found necessary to take to the boats without any of the treasure. As the last boat was about to leave the ill-fated craft, one of the officers, to make sure that no one was left on board, went back to make last tour of the ship To his surprise, sitting beside one of the casks with a hatchet in his hand, he found one of the sailors.
 Hurry up!" cried the officer. "We came within an ace of going off with out you"
 I'm not going" replied the sailor, giving the cask hearty whack with the hatchet, bursting it open, and laughing with delight as the coin I~n,.ed out around him. "Ive always wanted to die rich. I've been poor all my life, and this is my first and last chance. Go ahead. I'll stay here with my fortune"
 Argue as he might, the officer could not persuade the fellow to leave the gold with which he played as child with marbles, and he finally had to leave him to his fate.-Harper's Young paonla
