Is my first mishap-Tm afraid, though.

months ago, boarded Spanish mer-

had to make oil the crew walk the
plank. Unfortunately, ring that the
captain had took my fancy, and I've
worn it ever since. Well, this meddle-
some fellow boarded me y sterday, and
would have got off unsupported had
it not been for the cursed ring. The
captain of the merchantman had been
friend Of this officer, wh) had given
it to him. His suspicious being ex
cited, he examined the ships pap pers,
and thus found out my last LIT 9

about. So he's going to hang us al.

The doomed men were taken aboard
OF the man-of-war. One by one the
pirates were slowly strangled at the
yards end. There remained only Mar
cissus and the Snowman
After you, said the latter, with a
tiendish grin. "You are younger than
l am."
The moose was placed around Mar
cissus' neck. st,lwart arms swung
him up to the yard. AS he drew up his
writhing limbs in his death agony. the
Snowman turned away his face.
"Well, it was his own fault" he
muttered, "but I'm half sorry for
him."
A few moments passed, and the two
men were again gether--but MT in

The Geography of Nome.


The geographical position OF the
Nome region is the southern face OF
the peninsnlar projection of Alaska
which separates Kotzebue sound on
the north from Bering sen on the south,
and terminates westward in Cape
Prince of Wales, the extent of the
North American continent. In a di-
rect line of navigation, it lies about
$500 miles northwest of Seattle and
10 miles southeast of Siberia. The
nearest settlement of consequence to
it prior to 1877 was st. Michael, 100
miles to the southeast, the starting
point of the steamers for the Yukon
river; but during the year various
aggregations of mining population
had built themselves up in closer range,
and reduced the isolation from the
civilized world by some 90 miles. The
Nome district as settled centres about
the lower course OF the Snake river,
an exceedingly tortuous stream in its
tundra course. which emerges from q
badly degraded line of limestone, slaty,
and schistose mountain spurs, gener-
ally not over 700 to 1900 feet ele, a.
ton, but backed by loftier granitic
heights, and discharges into the sea
at q position l3 miles west of Cape
Nome proper. Three miles east of
this mouth is the discharge of Nome
river. Both streams have tidal
course of several miles. .-Appletons'

The blind postman of Filgrave,
England has just been retired on a
pension. He lost his sight through
an accident, but his misfortune did
not prevent him from securing the
position of postman between Filgravc
and Newport Pagnell, distance o;
about two miles. He carried ont this
work daily for many years, relying
entirely on his wonderful memory, and
seldom making mistake. His dog
always accompanied him on his rounds,
and he always found many friends at
hand to tide him over any difficulties
that arose.

One of the queero't corners in the
world, is Chatham 1slanl, off the coast
OF Ecuador, and 600 miles west from
Guayaquil. The island abounds in
black cats, which live in the crevices
of the lava formation near the coast,
and subsist by catching fish and crabs
instead of rats. Other animals found
on this island are horses, cattle, dogs,
goats and chickens, all of which are
perfectly wild. The equator crosses
the island.
