sea mammals have layer of
II blubber under their skins; it
varies in thickness, from one
inch in small creatures to twenty-five
inches i'll right whales.
Whale blubber is tough and elastic,
SO that chains passed through and
under the blubber will generally hold
whale alongside of a ship during the
process of cutting in
The color of good, healthy blubber
is yellowish to dirty white, and a
peculiar pinkish tint seems to sufuse
it. Young whales have blubber that
is almost milk white.
Cutting in" a whale is a decidedly
difficult piece of work, that has been
defined as fine example of ingenious
marine engineering. The whale is
held TO the side of the ship by i'm
mense chains that pass to tackles high
UP on the thick masts. AS the men,
who climb down and stand on the
whale, cut into the blubber, the
tackles haul until they turn the whale,
very slowly, thus helping the men by
practically peeling the blubber off as
one would peel an apple.
The men are armed with weapons
that look exactly like spades. The
edges of these are kept keen by a
grinder, who is busy the whole time
sharpening the tools while the whale
is being peeled"
The blubber is cut in strips five or
six feet wide and twelve or fifteen feet
long, and as soon as such piece has
been loosened sufficiently, a hook is
passed into it and the mass is hauled
on deck.
There the 'leaners" cut away the
pieces OF muscles that cling to it, and
with chopping spades they cut the
strip into what they call horse
pieces" which are two feet long and
six inches wide.
These are taken by other members
of the crew who act as mincers. The
strips are laid on a 'lninclng horse, ;"
and are chopped into small slices that
are held together at the bottom by a
piece of skin which is left uncut, SO
that the blubber piece opens out like
book.
In this condition it is thrown into the
try pots.
These are immense iron caldrons
set in brick work, which is built upon
every wha1er when the whaling has
been we'll begun Fierce wood fires
are kept burning under them, and
every little while the flames are fed
by pieces of whale fat.
1t is a wonderful sight to see a
wha1er at night with the tryworks 60
ing. The ship rolls in the sea with
great, ruddy pillar of mingled smoke
and fire mounting higher than the
masts.
There is always great danger in
this trying out, but the whalers are
singular1y ski1fu1 in handling their
fires. Although they are SO hot that
The Saint Paul globe., 1904-03-06

the solder on the implements around
the furnace is melted at times, and al
though the caldron of oil would ex-
plode in case sudden lurch Of the
ship should permit wave to wash
into the boiling blubber, accidents are
rare.
When an accident does happen, as
when a sudden shower comes down
in the tropics and scatters the bub-
bling contents of the caldron, the ship
may be afre from end to end before
the crew can even lower their boats;
for the blubber no sooner bubbles
from the caldron before the fires of
the furnace catch it, and as whaler
is permeated with oil, the decks are
swept by flame as if petroleum or
naphtha had exploded.
Some of the most terrible tragedies
of American and British marine his
tory are those through which whalers
have passed when their ships took fire
in mid-ocean, giving them just enough
time to get into boats without scrap
of food or drop of water.

v " HEN DIR. Karl PeterS made
XAE his famous journey, during
Wv which he discovered what
he says positively is the
Land of Ophir of the Bible, he had
some thrilling adventures with lions
and leopards.
He tells this story about one of
these encounters:
"a negro came into camp and re-
ported that three lions had been seen
entering a thicket near the river. My
companion, Blocker, and | took our
stations near it, he being posted down
the river and | taking my position
near a great tree.
"The blacks circfed the thicket with
howls and yells and fired shots into it.
Almost immediately the bushes parted
and with tremendous, laundering
roar a magnificent lion bounded out,
He came galloping straight toward the
tree and l fired without having the OPP
portunity to take careful aim.
MY shot was a clean miss. | pre-
pared to give him the second shot out
of my double -barreled rifle and waited
in order to get good chance, But he
changed his tactics at the same mo-
ment that | gave him my first shot,
and sprang at me.
-Four blacks stood between me and
the beast at this moment, they having
rushed into the way at the critical mo-
ment. Hardly had they appeared in
his line of approach, before they. were
down, strucklo by the terrible fore
paws, with which he swept through
them like reaper using scythe.
Barely had they gone down before
he leaped straight to my side and fell
on fifth negro, who had stepped
from behind the tree He pulled the
man to the ground, ripped his talons
into the body, seized his victim by the
shoulder with his mighty teeth and
shook him as if he were a mouse.
II sprang aside far enough to get
into line to shoot; the lion was only
three feet from me now. At this Short
range | sent my second bullet into
him. | had to aim bit too high, as
[ feared to hit the man under him.
At the same time dared not aim high
enough to smash his backbone. as !
feared that l might miss owing to the
frantic motions Of the furious beast.
'As soon as | struck him, the lion
dropped his prey and turned at me.
For a moment we stood face to face.
He looked at me with his eyes green
with rage. At this moment saw,
from the corner -ef my eye, that my

for my life, but little expecting to

"The lion .crouched, roared and fell
in his tracks. Before T realized it, he
crawled toward the high grass and
disappeared in it.
"TIe was dying, and a little later we
found his body, only a few feet away
but dying as he was, he still managed
to cripple another negro for life; fo1
as he crept into the grass, one of the
beaters ran directly into him, and with

WHITE HOUSE A DRAIN
ON PRESIDENTS FUNDS.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3-President
Roosevelts elaborate entertaining at
the White House Is understood to be
compelling him to make deep inroads
upon his private fortune. The $780,
900 he receives as salary from the gov
ernment is far too small to stand the
strain of a constant succession Of re-
ceptions. dinners. luncheons. musicals
and teas.
Few of his. predecessors in ofiice
saved anything. and President Roose-
welt has surpassed all OF them In the
brilliancy of the functions which have
made the White House the real cen
ter OF Washington social gayety.
President Roosevelt is not an ex-
ceedingly wealthy man. When he
was elected governor OF New York
his fortune was estimated at $780,
900. He also derived considerable
revenue from the royalties on the sale
OF his books, and his elevation to the
presidency has since Increased their
popularity.
