Shootinn the Whale.

The Norwegian whale fisheries ex-
tend over nearly the whole Of the Arc
tic sea, from the north Of Norway to-
ward Spitzbergen and even to the Shet-
land islands. The whales are shot
from small steamers, the implement
used being the so called bomb harpoon,
an arrow shaped iron spear furnished
with line, which is discharged from
small cannon. The whale often
drags the vessel long distance until
1t becomes exhausted and expires. 1t
Is then lowed to the anchorage, where
1t is stripped of the blubber. This
whale fishery was begun by well
known Norwegian, Svend Foyn, in
1868. At first only the blubber was
utilized for train oil; now the bones
are crushed for manure, and the flesh
Is used for fodder.

body of seamen in New York. In the
course of his sermon he introduced the
following words:

we shall soon lose sight of land. But
what means this sudden lowering Of
the heavens and that dark cloud rising

The hands of every sailor were grip
ping the pews in front Of them, and a
wild excitement was in their eyes.
And when the preacher reached the
climax of his dramatic speech they
sprang to their feet in a body and
shouted, Take to the longboat"
