The pilots have another whale story to
tell. On this occasion there was no dis

dent in hurry, nevertheless.
One of the leyiathans. while out hunt
ing opened its huge jaws to take in a
mouthful of small fish and engulfed the

OF the mudh0ok must have hurt the mann
NAL, for it rose to the surface and started
OFT at the rate of about 4 mile Il minute
with the pilot-boat in tow. After going
about five knots the kedge line parted,
and pilots and crew went down on their
knees and said prayers. Capt Erskine
led the devotions.

The latter was already in bed, 50 Frs
dressed himself lcisurely and had inst
removed his shoes when the Oracle s.
gave 4 jump ahead that threw him off
his feet
The shock brought Capt Kortz out of
his bunk standing and in flash he and
Erskine were on deck, and then they saw
the cause Of their trouble. The whale
was running through the water. leavine
a phosphoresceat trail behind it, dragging
the, pilot-boat,' which was almost bows
under. Just as the men were PREPARING
to cut the kedge line it parted and When
hauled aboard showed mat it must have
come right away from the ring in the
stock of the anchor. The Oracle S
cruised all that night and it goes with

out was kept for whales as was kept
for ships.

recently. 'During the day they can be
seen spouting in every direction and at
night you can hear them breathing ali
around you. Pm glad that we escaped

might have been worse.'-San Francis
