and had left the island IN a German

islands.
Quite six years had passed before
I learnA h . somewhat curious man
ner, what became of "Flash Harry"
One day, In Sydney, New South Wales,
three captains and myself, all en-
gagged In ths South Sea trade, met fer
lunch At the Paragon hotel ON Ciroa-
lar Quay. One Of the company, .
young man who was q stranger to
me, had just returned from the Solo
mon islands. He was very familiar
with the whole group and It's muir
aerous. cannibal people. and had had
scme very narrow escapes and thrill
ing experiences, which he narrated.
later I heard that in 1884 he and all
his ships company had been killed
on the Solomon group.)
We were talking of the massacre
Of Capt. Ferguson and the crew Of
the Sydney trading-steamer Ripple by
the natives Of Bougainville island. in
the Solomon group, when the young
skippsr remarked. "Ah! poor Fcrgu-
son ought to have been more careful.
Why. the very chief Of that village at
Numa Nums-the man who cut him
down with tomakawk-hadk killed
two other white men. Ferguson
knew that, and yet would allow him
TO como aboard tims after time with
hundreds Of his people. and gave
him and them the run Of ths shipl
I knew tho fellow well. He told me
to my face, the first time I met him,
that he had killed and eaten two
white men"
"Who were they?" I asked.
"One was man trading for Capt.
Macleod Of New Caledonia; the other
chap was some beach-combing fellow
who had been kicked ashore at Numa
Numa by the skipper. ! heard he
came from Samoa originally. Any
way, the chief told me that as soon
a. the ship Mat had put the man
ashore had sailed, he was speared
through the back as he was drinking
from a cocoanut. When they stripped
on his clothes to make him ready for
the oven, they found he was tattooed.

wEppEp GIRL HE WHIPPED.
Illinois Professor CapituIated Before
Pupil While C~Onquering
Fair Pupil.

HAKRfsBURe, ILL.,, March 26.-The
story Of a cupid wedding at Stone
fort, - miles south OF this city, has
just come to light and reveals a bit Of
romance.
While the principal Of the public
school at Stouefort, a month ago, Prof.
W. w. womaek, was called upon to
administer a whipping to Miss Mary
Marshall, a fair pupil Of IS summers,
for d~lsebeying the rules q the school.
This was a hard task 10 perform and,
hoping to escape It, he gave her the
choice between a whipping and sus-
pension FROM school and she chose the
whipping, which the professor pro-
ceeded to publicly administer.
Daring the administering of the
lashes, the pleading face Of the pupil
met the eyes OF the professor, and
stern discipline vas famed into a
fame Of love and pity for the fair
culpriL He dropped his lash, hung
his haad 10 shame and only pride and
the presence Of the school prevented
him from asking her forgiveness and
drying the tears away.
A few days ago, a week after school
closed, the two we're married at the
home 0f the BRIDES parents in Stone
fort and are apparently as happy as
may be.
