Th«* BtrwilXir L’Olonnoi* Wan Tortured 1 to I>«*ath by Indian*. , Iu St. Nicholas, iu bis series of ■ketcln s of '‘The Buccaneer* of Our Coast,” Mr. Frauk K. M < kton tells of the adventures of L'Olomiois, the Ft tichiu.m While coiisi in/’ •»• < t.g Hnn duus L’Olonnois ran his ve„.,el ashore Mr. Stockton says: Ah it was impossible to get their great vessel ufT the sand bunks the pi rn! • set to work to break her up and build a boat out of her planks. But when they began tho work they had no idea it would take so long to build a bout. It wns months before the un wieldy cralt was finished, and they oc cupied part of the time iu gardening, planting French beans, which were ripe in about six weeks, and gave them some fresh vegetables They also had Nome ol the ship's stores, and made bread, thus managing to live very well. L’Olonuois was never intended by nature to be a boatbuilder. and when tho boat was finished it was discovered that it had been planned so badly that it would not bold them all, so ibey drew lots to see who should embark iu her, for one half of them would have to stay until the others came back. Of course L'Olomiois went in the boat, and 1m reached the mouth of the Nicaragua river. There bis party was attacked by some Spaniards and Indians, who killed more than half of them and prevented the others from landing L'Olnuuoln and the rust of his men got safely away, and they might huve sailed hack to the island whore they had left their com rades, for there was now room enough for them all. Bnt instead they went to the coast of Cartagena. The pirates left on the island hy their heartless companions were ren-ned by a buccaneering vessel, hut L’Olounois bad now reached the end of his wicked ca reer. On the shores where he lauded he did not find prosperous villages and peace ful inhabitants to be rubbed, but instead tie came upon a fierce trilie of Indians called by the Hpaniarils “bravos," or wild men. These people would never have anything to do with the whites. It was impossible to conquer them or to pacify them. They hated white men. They iiad heard of L'Olouuois and his buccaneers, and when they found this notorious pirate upon their shores they were filled witii a fury sueli as tiiey had never felt toward any other of his race. Nearly all of the buccaneers were killed, and L'Olonuois, being taken prisoner, was put to death with most cruel tortures—a fate of which he had uo right to complain. DR. LYMAN BEECHER. The Great Preacher’s Peculiar Habits In Preparing Hi* Nrrmooi. Ur. Lyman Beecher’s pecnliar habits, shown by his method of preparing ser mons, are illustrated in Annie Field’s latest book, “The Life and Letters of Harriet Beeaher Htowe. " In her words: “If he was to preach in the evening, be was to be seen all day talking with whoever would talk, accessible to all, full of everybody’s affairs, business and burdeus, till an hour or two before the time, when lie would rush np into his Btndy (which ho always preferred should be the topmost room of the house), aud, throwing off his coat, utter a swing or two with the dnmbbeli* to settle the balance of his muscles, he would sit dowu and dash ahead, making quanti ties of bieroglypbio notes on small stub bed bits of paper about as big as the palm of bis baud. The bells would be gin to ring, and still he would write. They would toll loud aud long, and hie wife would say, ‘He will certainly be late, ’ and then would be running np aud down stairs of messengers to see that he was finished, till, just as the last struke of the bell was dying away, he would emerge from the study with his coat very much awry and come down the stairs like a hurricane, stand impatiently protesting while female hands that ever lay in wait adjusted hi* cravat and settled his ooat oollar, call ing loudly the while for a pin to fasten together the stubbed little bits of paper aioresniu, wuicn ueiug uuiy urcppeu into the crown of bia but and, hooking wife or daughter like a satchel on his arm, away he would start on such a race through the street* a* loft neither brain nor breath till the church was gatmd. Then came the process of get ting in through crowded aisles wedged up with heads, the bustle and stir and bush to look at him us, with a matter of fact, businesslike push, he elbowed his way through them and up the pulpit stuirs. ’’ The Krai Truth.

"I suppose that all of qh who felt the living, frenzied force of that awful on ihore hurricane will dream about it Dceuxionully ax long a* wo live, ” xatd an ex-bluejacket of tbo United Htates uavy now living in VVaxhington, who wax among the V'andalia xhip'i com puny at the time of the great naval dis aster in Apia harbor, Bauioa, in revert ing to that experience "For three or four year* after I got out of that me*e all Mufe and sound the memory of it Dik'd to gi t tangled up in my head when X wax asleep, and X would wake to a tremble and be unable to deep for the remainder of the night. Xiut time baa softened the craggier odgex of the re membrance of that horrifying black wind, and once in a spell nowadays I forget all a tout It for two or three days at a time. "There was one man in my mees on the Vandal ia who was never quite right after we went on the reef. I was ship mate with him for two years afterward, and his occasional wildness was plain to all bands, and men who've been ship mutex with him since—for he’s still in SL... ..nsXIS Soil ,1111 tliuf lm*u inul au Korl. ly haunted by the memory of the disas ter us he was when last 1 saw bim. This man was a shipwright, and his name was Turley. Before we had that bad blow Turley was as cheerful and aa chipper a man around decks as I ever swapped yarns with, hut when be got well of bis broken arms down in Apia he was a changed man. I never saw him crack a grin after the blow, and from a stout, husky fellow he beoame thin and haggard looking. He recovered all right physically from the thing, yon see. hut It sort of twisted bis head and preyed upon him. He swung his ham mock alongside of me on the Alert for two years alter we were sent up to duty on the west coast again, and it was a common thing for Tnrley to hop out of his hammock in a frenzy in the middle of the night in port or at sea, yelling like a madman: 'All bands abandon ship! She’s going to strike!' He created a lot of excitement up forward by doing this, hut after awhile the men got used to it and only turned over when they heard Turley howling. “It was the regular thing for the cor poral of the marine guard at the gang way to prod i he poor chap awake when he bad tiiet crazy somnambulistic spells and put him back in his hammock, for he’d come out of them as weak as a kitten and trembling all over. There were a number of us on the Alert who were washed np in the Samoan disaster, and naturally ouce in awhile we’d get to talkiug about it. But it didn’t take us long to find out that we couldn’t talk about It while Turley was around. The mention of the thing in bis hearing won Id bring an insane gleam into bis eyes, end he wonld suddenly begin to talk incoherently and at the top of his voioe about reefs and dragging anohors and all that, so that we learned to knock off Samoan hurricane talk when be was around. I don’t wonder much either. It was an evil enough blow to nigh turn any man's headgear topsy turvy. ’’—Washington Star. me tune in aimka. The settlements along the Yukon ars few and far between and consist, for the most part, of the same elements. There are the company’s store; tbs huts and tents of tbe natives; the orowd of howling dogs; salmon hanging in red strips burnished with copper tinges in the sun; little tots of ohildren; chatter ing women offering baskets moccasins and trinkets for sale, and here and there perhaps a squad of uniformed ohildren, marking tbe work uf some mission— good looking, oleau looking ohildren, but, whether Christianised or not, spoiled for living like natives again. The problem is, Wbat is to beooms of thetu? Along the banks are occasionally wet the rude huts and tents of small parties of Indians oouie hither to out wood for the boats or to fish, but, how ever simple the habitation, it must al ways have tile cache, or storehouse, propped upon posts to keep tbe supplies out of reach of the dogs, for these dogs can bite through a tiu can and almost climb a greeted pole in search of food. Tbe cache should have a place on the coat of arms uf Alaska it is universal. —"Tbe Hlver Trip to the K loud ike," by John Sidney Webb, lu Century. Uatu Taslsr.
