Shipwrecks and Courts Martial.

The custom Of holding courts martial
In the British navy after every case of
shipwreck has curious origin. In
1741 the Wager, one of Commodore
Anson's vessels, was wrecked Off the
coast Of Chile, most Of the crew being
saved. The men and some Of the jun
Tor officers held that they were no
longer amenable to discipline because
their pay ceased with the wreck, but
the captain, whose name was Dayy
Cheap, differed, treated them as mutt
neers and shot one Of his midshipmen.
He was then deposed, and most of the
crew made off In three of the boats.
Later when 1t was proposed to proceed
against the so called mutineers the law
officers or the crown decided that the
men had been correct In their view.
This discovery led to the framing OF
section 81 Of the articles Of war, which
provides that in the case Of shipwreck,
destruction or capture by the enemy Il
ship Is held to remain In commission
pending inquiry by court martial.

Tha Pics Of Brittany.

brittany Is all right" the travelled
man said cautiously. 'but beware of
the pigs there. The Breton pig Is not
fat and indolent like ours. He Is as
lean and fiery as wolf and twice a
VOLTS size. All over Brittany you see
him, staggering up and down the
white roads in search Of roots, berries,
frogs, anything-for he must forage
for himself-his master never feeds
him. Step out Of his way, or he will
snarl and leap at you.
