3IY LAST SWIM AT SEA.
I cannot recollect ever learning to swim.
I 6vnru naturally, and in boyhood was
almost as much at homo in as out of the
water. Diving, an art in general only
acquired by long practice, was to me
easy from the beginning. My skill in
aquatic sports passed into a proverb, and
now that years have passed and I have
reached middle life the renown of my
ly hood's feats clings to me yet in my
native place.
Hut 1 am a swimmer no more; the love
that was so 6trong has given place to
such a loathing hate and horror of the
water that when I think of it a cold
shudder comes over me until the tide of
thought is turned. An adventure in
tropical waters was the cause of this.
It happened thus: I was on my second
vovage. The ship lay becalmed amid
tho Mol ticca Islands, on the passage for
China. It was near midday n the fore
noon watch. The sun's hottest rayg were
pouring clown upon the deck with scorch
ing violence, and vainly did I seek for
S'iuo cool tpot where momentary com
fort, at last, could be found. The pant
ing, half nude forms of the crew were
Fpread out beneath theshadeof a canvas
drawn over the forecastle capstan, which
they tried to persuade themselves yielded
some shelter from the heat.
Above, not a cloud could be seen In
the broad blue expanse of the sky, which
vined a heated caldron turned above
..j. Against it the Etately spars and
heavy white sails swayed with the roll
of the 6hip in royal idleness and majesty.
Too hot to work or to read, uneasy,
praying for a breeze which it seemed
wouIJ never come, I lounged about the
deck vainly seeking relief from my dis
comfort. (Jazing over the 6ide down into the
deep blue waste beneath, my eye sought
some object by wliich to note the vessel's
program- however 6low it might be, but
nothing could I see save water, dark and
unfathomable. The polished coppered
side of the bhip shone brightly out upon
the surface for a few feet, and as I
gazed upon its quivering beauty, and re
marked how very still we lay the thought
struck me, "What a chance for a swim!"
What a relief from all this broiling,
sweltering, oven like heat.
To think was to act. I turned to the
bovs.
"Here John! Billyl Jimmy! Let's
go in swimming, ever was such a
cliance!" cried I, springing down from
tho rail. "Let's sling the ladder over
from the fore chains so we can get up
the Fide easily, and we'll have a good
time; she isn't moving a bit; come, bear
a hand, and let's see who'll be overboard
lix.-t."
The ship's officers made no objection,
and I was quickly joined by four or five
cf my shipmates, each as anxious as my
self for something to vary the monotony.
The fore hatch ladder was quickly slung
an J Li.-1'.eJ to the tide, and we stripped
to p in.
Tiic re.t of the crew had gathered upon
the top gallant forecastle to watch our
antics. Only one old fellow, an inveter
ate growler known as "Briton," cau
tioned' U3 as he took his seat near the
rail:
"Yon young rascals had better keep
out of tile water, or the Eharks H gob
ble up some of you. There's plenty of
'em round for all you don't see em.
"Oh, you're alwavs croaking, you web
footed old barnacfe back!" cried Billy
Dipton, mounting the rail and poising
himself for a plunge. ""We never can do
anything but you must throw cold water
ouit."
' Oh, go ahead J go ahead I J don't car
v. hat you do; you re not obliged to take
mv advice, but if you were a eon of
mine you'd not go overboard In these
waters," growled Briton.
"Well, as I'm not your son, and as you
don't care what 1 do, here goes!" said
Billy, and suiting the action to the word,
ho sprang lightly to the rail, glanced in
mid
buried
Rising quickly to tne surface with a
shake of his curly head to clear his sight
of the water, which dripped from liis
hair, he gave an encouraging cheer to
tho rest and struck boldly out from the
vessel's side.
Emlioldened by his confidence, several
more began taking off their clothes to
join the merry band who were soon
tumbling about under the bow of spl&ah
lng water up at the lookers on above. I
was delayed through having to put some
guys to the ladder, until some seven or
eight had gone over the side. Their
houta and laughter and the fear that I
was losing half the fun hastened my
movements, as throwing my clothing
into my bunk I ran out and clambered
into the forechalns for a dive.
As I paused a moment to take breath
and cool my perspiring body slightly be
fore going In, I looked down upon the
merry scene of which I had been the
chief instigator.
Below me, clinging with one hand to
some ropes ends thrown over to them,
and actively spattering water upon each
other, were two of the less experienced
swimmers. Further on toward the bow
were three or four others more expert,
who were Tying with one another in
feats and pranks; diving under each
other, catching hold of feet and pulling
some other down, and ducking one an-
wuier unawares.
Away out, some hundred yards or
more, Billy Dipton was leisurely swim
ming about, rolling over and over por
poise fashion, floating and enjoying him
self hugely. As soon as Jbe saw me
ready to dive he called to me to join him
him and see how handsome the ship
looked from the distance.
"Stay where you are, Billy, and see if
I can't 'fetch you before I rise," I cried,
raising my hands above my head for the
plunge.
"All right," cried Billy, treading water;
"I sh'n't move. Come ahead."
Overboard I went, several of the look
ers on expressing their doubts as to any
one's ability to swim so far under water,
nd watching my progress the while. A
cheer greeted my appearance at the sur
face where I arose beyond Mrn. Crying
to me that he could beat that, Billy
struck out for the ship to prove his words.
lie soon gamed the chains and jokingly
calling to me that he believed I had
doubled the distance by going farther
out, took in hia breath and shot over
board like an arrow. So cleanly did he
enter the water that the slightest possible
ripple ruffled the surface of the deep as
it closed over him. I waited with watch
ful eyes for his reappearance. I expected
to see him rise between me and the ship,
for the distance was so great that It had
taxed my own powers, and I thought I
had him beaten.
Even as I was thtnUng this a cheer
from the forecastle warned me that he
had come up, and turning my head I be
held him some five or six yards beyond
me, a cheery smile upon his face and his
head cocked on one side as If to say:
"Beat that, my boyl"
Without a word I struck out to the
vessel again, not a little vexed at being
outdone, and determined to go so far
outside him next time as to deter hirn If
possible from trying again to beat me.
Reaching the ship I clambered up the
side and took my nlace in the UDier
chains ready for the plunge. The cap
tain and mate being doubtless as hard
mshed for amusement as we poor fel
ows forward, were leaning over the
quarter rail and watching our sport with
interest.
"Go it, Cus!" cried John Butler, as he
climbed out of the water to get a better
view. "Beat him this time so he won't
want to try again." Then, as he sur
veyed the distance at which Billy lay, he
added: "My stars, but that's a long dive!
eh, Briton?" turning to the old sailor
who had warned us against going into
the water. . ,
"Yes," returned he, "a deal too long.
If John Shark was to come along now,
what chance would Billy have to get on
board? The old man must be loony to
let you youngsters go into the water in
such a sharks' paradise as this. If I had
my way I'd masthead the whole bilin'
of you
"uo It, you old growl, your retorted
John. "I suppose you never had a swim
in your life, and now you're too old.
You've got the rheumatism yourself, and
don't want to see anybody else enjoy
themselves. Talk about sharks when
you're where they are. We haven't seen
one since we got among the Islands, and
I'm blest if I think there are anv here
abouts."
Standing there in the chains, with one
hand upon the sheer pole already to let
go and plunge, I heard Briton's remark
and John's reply. Something In the old
fellow's manner struck me more than
the former warning had, and as I lis
tened to John's answer, I could not help
feeling that the older sailor had all the
reason on his side. The swimmers had
begun to come on board and dress. I
almost made up my mind to stay on
board and yield the palm of diving to
Billy.
But they were all watching me, and
whispered, "Pshaw I Don't show the
white feather now I There are no pharks
about. It won't take three minutes to
eet outside where Billy Is and swim back
to the 6hlp. Then you needn't go in
again."
Still I hesitated, while mr shiDmates
waited to see what I would do.
"Never mind," thought I; "let 'em
wait. I'll stay on board the ship,"
I turned to call Billv in. Befnra I
I could speak, he sang out to me, "Come,
i Gus, I'm tired of waiting I If you're
going to give is up, say so, and 111 come
out. I've been in long enough."
That settled It. "Give It up? NeverP
thought I, the whole current of my f eel
ing at the tone of his banter, and; suit
ing the action to the thought. I made
ready to dive. I drew In my breath and
gathered for the plunge. In another
moment I should have been overboard.
I was In the very act of springing, when
the startling cry of "A shark! a shark'
came from the forecastle,
"Come out of the water, aUl Coma
out, Billy! Hurry, there's no time to
loser cried half a score of voices. Most
of the few men still In the water were
close beside the vessel. They crowded
to the ladder, and scrambled up it In
great haste and excitement.
For me the cry came just In time. I
grasped a shroud and saved myself from
going overboard, though I had already
gaintid such headway that mv bodv
swur g pjear of the side before I could
j regain my footing tn the chains.
1 v oce secure, i loosed aown lor my
shipmates, too anxious for their safety
to think at that moment of the peril I
had been In myself. The last swimmer,
save Billy, had gained the ladder, his
feet just clear of the water, as round the
bow, with silent speed, came the monster
of whose presence old Briton had given
sucn umery warning.

seemed unaware of Billy's being still in
the water, for bis attention had been
first called to those nearer the ship.
The mate and all who could were hard
at work lowering one of the quarter
boats, and shouting to Billy to keep off,
and not come any nearer the vessel.
With much presence of mind he obeyed,
rolling on his back and floating as lightly
as possible upon the surface. Several
hands had rushed to the forecastle and
galley for bits of beef or pork with which
to try to coax the shark to remain along
side until their shipmate could be picked
up.
The shark nosed at the various tidbits
thrown out to him, but he seemed mis
trustful, and to have an Idea that we
were trying to hoodwink him. He still,
however, remained by the ship.
ine Doac was aown. and nulllnir ran-
Idly toward the boy, when the noise of
the oars attracted the shark. He at once
set off " toward her, and followed In the
wake. Then began our worst suspense.
If he kept behind the boat, Billy might
be reached in time; but If he should put
forth his speed and pass her, there could
be no hope of saving him.
"Lie still, Billyl" shouted the captain,
as he wrung his hands, deploring his
carelessness in permitting us to go into
the water at alL "Lie Just as still as
you can, or you are lost!"
It was but a short pull, but the time
seemed long as tne men gave way with
a will. Behmd the swiftly moving boat,
and keeping pace with her motion, a
dark pointed fin cleaves the water. A
moment more and the boat is by the
swimmer, her bow gradually turning
away as she nears him. The fin draws
closer in her wake. As the boat swings
within reach, a man rises in the bow.
and leaning over, grasps the terriflea
boy by the hand, while the mate loudly
shouts. "Hold water, all!"
The boat's wav is stooped, and Billv Is
being drawn in over the bow. An ex
ultant cheer rises from the ship, where,
breathless with suspense, all hand are
watching the terrible race.
The rejoicing comes too quick! High
above the cheer Is heard a shriek, that
none who bear ever forget. The fin has
passed around the boat's stern, and in
stantly there is a sudden and fearful com
motion alongside. As Billy Is being
lifted into the boat, the shark so long de
luded and misled sees him. He is then
scarcely twenty feet distant. With a
lightning like dart he rushes upon his
prey just as he is almost clear from the
water.
Horror! He has his victim!
No!
He has missed the body by a hair's
breadth, but has caught the calf of Billy's
leg, from which, not quite grasping the
oone. ne nas torn naix tne nesn, and
nearly dragged him from the hold of his
rescuers. With this he sinks beneath the
waves, tho boat's crew driving at his
tough carcass with oars and boat hooks,
but making no impression.
The boat was quickly alongside the
ship, and Billy, limp as a rag and bleed
ing, passed on board. He had fainted as
soon as taken from the water, and just
as the shark seized him. Carrying him
into the cabin, his wound was dressed,
and restoratives applied which brought
him to life once more. Not for several
weeks did he fully regain his senses, and
it was many months before his leg was
well enough to admit of his walking.
Billy sailed the deep until he went,
years ago, to his long account. It Is al
most needless to say that while he lived
he never tempted the sharks by under
taking swimming exploits in salt water.
For myself, I have not swam since that
day when I was on the point of leaping
into the jaws of a shark. Clarence Puf

When I first went on the stage I man
aged to get myself disliked in more
ways than an ordinary mortal would
deem it possible. The first thing I did
was to "hoodoo" evervthinir. Now. I
didn't know what it meant to "hoodoo"
things, but I was always doing it. J
began in this way:
One night I came to the theater in
high spirits; it was raining torrents, but
what cared I for wind or rain? Wasn't
there a swell theatre party made up just
on my account, and wouldn't I shine In
the eyes of my old school friends as a
bright particular 6tar, even though my
part was not one of great importance?
In spite of my wet feet and dripping
umbrella I skipped hilariously into the
dressing room and greeted my sister
artists with a more than usually cheer
ful "good ovening." I took off my hat
and ulster and hung them up, then I put
my rubbers In the corner. We had an
unusually large dressing room, and there
were tnreo or lour of us dressing to

thought that would be a good place for

the sink to drain. Then I went into the
dressing room and began to get ready to
"make up." Now. ever since I was a
small chad I have had a reprehensible
habit of whistling. I have tried in vain
to break myself of It. Whenever I feel
particularly light hearted I find myself
w msiung away as merrily as if the old
proverb about "whistling girls and crow
ing nens nao never been heard of.
. BINd, BUT DO NOT WHISTLE.
I took out my cosmetics and began to
greaae paint my race, just as I was
about to make an amiable remark to one
or the girls she 6tartled me by crying out
in a peremptory tone, "Stop that!"
"Stop what?" I said.
"That whistling."
"Don't you like that air? Well, here's

"Stop!" they all cried, in a chorus.
