MARINE MONSTERS.
Sailors as a Glass Do Not Believe in
Sea Serpents.

F. T. Bullen in London Star.
To the curious in such matters il
must be intensely interesting to note
how vigorous, even in these latter
days, and in the most prominent CEN
ters of civilization, is the craving af-
ter one of the most ancient of all tho
worlds myths. An immense volume
might be written upon the persistence
of the sea-serpent legend, beginning
away back in the twilight of history
and carried right down into this pres
ent year of grace. And such a noun
tain Of apparently unimpeachable evil
dence might be collected in favor Of
the existence of such a monster or
monsters that the most skeptical Of
mankind, being unpossessed of any
personal experience of the matter
might well be excused for giving in
their allegiance to the belief in seq
serpents, even though they were rep
resented as hugely incredible as the
Misunderstanding specimen portray
ed in the Brahminic account of the uni
versal deluge.
But it will be found that, although
of course all the reports of sea SER
pents having been seen are received
from seafarers, seamen as a class do
not believe in the existence of any such
creature, Moreover if those reports be
submitted to careful investigation II
will invariably he found that there are
so many elements Of doubt attaching TO
the description of the monsters seen
that by-and-by the only clear thing
remaining about such yarns win be,
that something has been seen under
certain abnormal conditions which has
been hastily pronounced serpentlne in
character Afterward with the natur-
al tendency to embelish a story which
all narrators are prone to, definite de-
tails have been added until some hid
eous worm, worthy to take it's place
among the nightmares OF the "elder
slime has been evolved.
In the course of my wanderings I'm
little-frequented parts OF the watery
world have come In contact with many
queer fish-sO queer in fact, that feel
bound TO make every excuse for those
who, having been brought in contact
with such strange shapes for the first

the overcrowding of the car by the

reNeral mornings past as many as sixty
people have been crowded into the car,

According to the Brooklyn Eagle, Mr.
Francis Wilson, in "Cyrano de Rer-

effects by quiet and droll methods and

his humor.

of seats. Fortunately he was only
bothered and stupid, and not infuri-
ated. The shreks, the rushing people,
suddenly brought him to his senses.
and he stopped short and looked good
humoredly about, but a terrified lady
caught him by horn and another
raised her parasol and hit him between
the eyes with it. The poor animal
broke away again, and, finding his way
down passage, escaped into the field
in which the arena stands. 1t was
filled with cycles. The bull tossed a
lot of them about, and was sitting
down to quietness when he found him
self pursued by picadors, chulas, mata-
doris and toreros gendarmes and police
men, the latter armed with revolvers.
Again the bull made off. There was a
general discharge of pistols, but 81
wild was the firing that the wonder is
he only was shot. He made one more
rush when wounded, got entanged in
wire fence and fell. A bull fighter
then stabbed him in the neck, and there
was an end to the poor toro
The bull was from the pastures Of the
Duke of Verogna He was named Ro-
mito, and was black, powerful and
long-horned, Romito was one of those
bulls that Craze with sheep, and are
quiet as lambs unless teased. Before
1t left Spain it was taught to asso-
ciate the "Marseillaise" and Carmen
with teasing, which shows that bulls
can receive kind of musical educa-
tion. Both airs were played Yesterday
before the door of the toril was swung
back and Romito bounded into the
arena. The music, It appears, was on
his nerves when he leaped across the
palisade into the laps--of all people-of
