THE YELLOW FLAG.
A Ruse That Once Saved a British Ship
From CAPTURE.

An effective ruse de guerre In the way
Of flag flying was that practiced In the
Mediterranean at the beginning Of the
last century by Lord Dundonald while
cruising I'm the British ship Speedy.
This little brig had captured so many
OF the enemy's merchantmen that
Spanish frigate was specially fitted out,
disguised as a merchantmen, to bring
her to book.
Dundonald, In order to deceive the
merchant craft Of the enemy, adopted
similar tactics and disguised the Spec
dy as a Danish merchant brig. The
two disguised boats soon sighted each
other Dundonald ut once gave chase
and discovered his mistake when the
Spaniard suddenly revealed her true
nature and started lowering boat to
examine the Speedy's papers.
But Dundonald was equal to the oc-
casion. He hoisted the yellow flag
signal Of sickness. And when the
Spanish boat was within hail an Eng
lish officer In Danish uniform shouted
that they were only two days out OF
Algiers. AS the plague was raging In
Algiers, the ruse was completely sue
cessful.-London Chronicle.

A LIVING TORPEDO.
That odd Fish, the Electric Ray, 10 Q
Terror In His Own Way.

error IN MS SWn way
There Is a queer fish, bearing the
name torpedo, that In It's own peculiar
way Is a good deal Of terror. This
Is the torpedo. or electric ray, dweller
In the southern seas, which grows to q
large size, sometimes weighing seventy
or eighty pounds. This peculiar fish
has n nearly circular body, a short tail
and very small mouth.
The back Is brownish In color, and
the underneath parts are white.
The torpedo obtains Its name from
It's power Of giving violent shock,
similar to an electric shock, to any
thing with which 1t comes In contact
Whenever an enemy approaches the
fish emits from Its body kind Of elec-
tricity, which incapacitates the attack
er Immediately.
In capturing Its food the torpedo
finds this power OF use. Being very
inactive, 1t cannot pursue the small
fish which form It's diet, SO It lies In
wait until they swim close by and then
throws out its powerful shock. which
instantly renders them helpless.
If person touches this strange fish
he is attacked by cramp, which affects
the stomach, producing kind Of con-
vulsion. For this reason the torpedo
Is sometimes known as the "cramp
fish. ."-LOndOn Answers.
