A Pirate in Bad Luck.

In the way Of well-defned and con-
spicuous ups and downs, few lives have
surpassed that of Bartholemy. He had
many adventures after the desperate
affair in the Bay of Campeachy, but
they must all have turned out badly for
him, and consequently very fortunately
for divers and sundry Spanish vessels;
and during the rest of his life he bore
the reputation Of an unfortunate pirate
He was one of those men whose success
seemed to have depended entirely upon
his own exertions, if there happened to
be TIE least chance of his doing aEy-
thing, he generally did it. Spanish oan-
non, well-armed Spanish crews, mana
cles, Imprisonment, the dangers Of the
ocean to man who could not swim,

fulforests impenetrabl BILE to common men
all were bravely met and trumphed
over by Bartholemy. Yet when it came
to ordinary good fortune, such as any
pirate might expect, Bartholemy the
Portuguese found that he had no chance
at all. But he was not common pirate,
and was, therefore, obliged to be con-
tent with his uncommon career. He
eventually settled in the island of ia
maica, but nobody knows what became
of him.-Frank Il. Stockton, in st.

Grafton himself was offered detail at
the academy, and rather than take his
bride to the far frontier so soon after
their marriage he accepted it, and there
they spent the summer; and there. in
July, Miss Frances Hayward Joined
them at Mrs. Grafton's urgent request.
and there did Randolph Merriam fall
deeply and devotedly in love with her,
and no one wondered. By far and away
she was the prettiest girl at the Point
that summer, and Merriam was con-
ceded to be mighty lucky fellow when,
very soon after the announcement of
Charlotte Hayward's forthcoming mar
rage to Edward Parry. he allowed him
self to be congratulated upon his en-
gagement to her younger sister.
And he had every right to consider
himself engaged. She had accepted his
attentions, his devotions, eventually his
ring and also his presents. He had
called upon Aunt and Uncle Mellen in
New York, the guardians of the girls.
and startled them out of all equanimity
by the announcement that Miss Hay-
ward had accepted the offer of his heart
and hand conditioned only on their con.
sent, which he besough them to give.

ABOUT WOLVES,
Some Interesting Facts Related b,
Hunters.

Hunters.
The gray wolf is a creature of the
storm, many think, because it is so
fierce, and because, like the eagle, it
plays in strong winds, seeking the ex-
posed places and delighting to get on
some point of rock where the gale blows
most fercely. One man says that It
requires an expert to distinguish be-
tween VOLTS howl and the shriekipp
of high wind
Wolves are good husbands, providing
food for their families with the ut
most care, hunting far and near, in,hard
times raiding sheep folds and the deer
covers with an impartiality that rouses
the farmer and. the swortsman.
Men who hunt for business kill the
wolves in business-like way. They
shoot COW or deer, sprinkle strychnine
on the flesh, and then go away.
Frequently wolves are near by
watching the hunter while he is at
work, but the man does not shoot them.
When the man goes the wolves come,
eat some of the meat and then go tum-
bling over the ground in mortal agony.
Wolves are knowing beasts. Arti-
fetal trap bats have few charms for
them, save when they can come in over
the back of a pen and, take the meat
without danger. They hunt in packs,
led by some beast of great prowess, that
has gained its leadership by fighting
all the wolves of the pack. The male
wolf will not bite female wolf.-For-

And stop they do, finding the broker

to look pleased at the coming of Wis

whenever an opportunity to gain an adj
vanced footing presented itself. In their
operations about Aguadores the Americans
were greatly encouraged by the work of the
fleet which poured heavy fire into the
lines of the Spaniards.
Admiral Sampson ordered the New York
Gloucester and Suwanee to attack the bat
teries recently placed to the east of Moro.
The vessels engaged the batteries at short
range and left only the SCARED hillside to
show where the batteries had been located.
The Massachusetts and the New York then
opened with their big guns, plunging a
heavy fire into the enemy's line. Common
shell and reduced charges were used for the
purpose and they demoralized the enemys
ranks. The shells were fired at high eleva-
ton, so as to clear the towering coast line
ridge.

noon the Iowa steamed within one thou
sand yards of Moro Castle. Admiral Samp-
son had signaled from the flagship for the
Iowa to engage Moro, but few minutes
later, just as the Iowa was about to open
fire, the annulling pennant was hoisted.

OFF SANTIAGO DE CUBA, July q via

disappointment is felt by the naval officers
over General Duffield's inability to cross the
stream at Aguadores which runs through a
gully. Had pontoons been brought from
Altares, the western bluff of Aguedores,
commanding an excellent position, could
have been taken and held under cover of
the fire of the fleet. There was trestIe

been partly destroyed at the western end.
