Xouth'a Companion. TEE 0E1Y YICTDCS. West Africa is known to all aavi gstors for lis few harbors and Its heavy surf, which at certain seasons rages lite a battle, defying the white man who would approach Its shores. The author of Tbe Jungle Folk of ." E. H. MHilgan. tells cf a suc cessful, sad to the observers aa amus ing, effort to reach shore at a point where the surf did not seem to be im psssabla. One day, when the beach seemed much better than usual, the captain nd ths ship's Burgeon ventured ashore. The captain afterward narrat ed the adventure of their landing to a mall but enthusiastic audience. He said that after waiting outside the surf half aa hour the head man sud denly gave tie order, and la a moment they were ia the breatera, riding on the top of one of them, and speeding toward the shore at the rate of "seven ty miles aa hour." The captain was la the bow of the boat, well braced and cushioned. But when tie boa struck the beach with the force of a railway collision, the doctor was thrown violently over two thwarts into the captain's bosom, whom be clasped about the neck with a steel l!ie grip. The next moment another breaker picked the boat op and buried it upon the beach, throwing both captala sad octor to a perfectly safe distance, where tiey sprawled trptm the sand. The doctor, still bugging the captains neck, and very much frightened, ex claimed,: "O captain, dear captain. Is there anybody kfDed but yem n,j A tMa Will.
