Evolution OF the wrecking Business.
Old British law thus describes
wreck and salvage: when any ship
OF boat is stranded or in sore dis
tress on any shore or tidal water Of
the United Kingdom any one assist
ing to save the lives of those on the
endangered vessel or to save the
vessel itself and its cargo shall be
entitled to receive from the owners
a reasonable sum besides expenses.
This payment Is called salvage. No
receiver of wreck is entitled to sal
wage. Salvage on account of preser-
walton of human life has priority to
all other claims for salvage"
History is full of accounts of false
lights and lures placed by dishonest
hands for murderous purposes. A
shipload of passengers may go to
the bottom for allthe wreckers may
care, go they gather a little profit
from the disaster. In ancient times
the British crown appointed a wreck
master, whose business it was to
take charge of and assist all strand
ed vessels and to prevent the plum
der that almost always accompanied
the breaking up of ship on an I'M
frequented shore. Our life saving
service is the outgrowth of the wreck
master idea. The life savers are
volunteers, although salaried, and
are among the bravest and strongest
hearted men in our land.
Only on exceptional occasions do
we realize what their services really
are. When a great ship, with hun
dreds Of passengers, is rescued from
the jaws of death the world won
ders, but these men, with the mus
cles Of steel and the eagle eye, take
their lives in their hands whenever
they go out to bring in some poor
fisherman or to gather up the scat
tered remnants of some unimpor-
tant marine industry. Wrecking has
been reduced to a science, and the
appliances and methods employed
in this work are among the most in
teresting constructions ever design
ed by inventive genius.-New York
Ledger.

The Brte1ess Barrister.
An attorney was taking q turn,
In shabby habiliments dressed.
His coat 1t was shockingly worn
n the rust had invested his vest.
His brooches had suffered a breach,
His linen and worsted were worse.
He had scarce q whole crown in his hat
And not a half crown in his purse.
And thus as he wandered along,
A needless and comfortless elf,
He sought for relief in Q song,
Or complainingly talked to himself:

And, In brief, I've meier had a briefi
