Warren suspectod a move ou tho part of tho roughs aud fixed tho guu ou a pivot, so that it would command the item of the boat aud tho approach to the treasure room. Ho heavily loaded the Kim und then throw iu a handful of j nails for scattering shot Tho attack, ho I was informed, was to bo luado at sun- j down, just as tho boat was rounding tho Pirate's covo, ubout 30 miles above S in Francisco. Warren and his men as sembled iu the bow and soon noticed a miinbir of men forming ou tho steru of tho boat ami others joining them from the cabin above by coming down the back stairway. Tho cannon was immediately rt-vcrsctl, and Warren and bis men drew their revolvers. 'Oo up stairs, or I'll turn her loose and mow you down liko wheat!' shouted Warreu as ho stood reaily to 'let 'er go.' ' 'Tho roughs, seeing that they wero outflanked, recoiled in disorder, and semo ran up stairs. Just nt that mo riant tho boat ran on a sand bar ami was keeled over, noarly upsetting her. Tiie roughs wero panic sWieken, doubt hss thinking this was part of tho pro cranime, and somo of them jumped overboard. Tho caunou also went over hoard. In a few hours, fortunately, an other buat camo ulong and hauled us off the bar, and we arrived safely at San Francisco with our $1,000,000 in gold du.t. No; those who jumped overboard did not get back. Wo would not let any body board us at that stage of tho pro ceuliims, especially as ws knew who tin y were.

Tho price ouo way by tho caravan route was I'l'.'O, ju about tlio co.t of a trip around tho world iu our day. Thaeko- ray's journey was a matter of months. Colonel ftcwcomu s a matter of weeks, that of tliol.a-t Indian uow a matter of a'ays. "Lieutenant Nagliorn waj tho man 0 to lay down and establish the caravan Mute. It soon became a regular freight and passenger line. It was from Suez to Cairo, a distance of iO miles, usually made in about three days. Tho freight was carried on tlio backs of camels, and the passengers rode in a rudo diligence drawn by mules. There wero caravan saries every fivo miles, where tho mules wero changed, and nt some of these there was food to bo had. Tho great standby was 'spatchcock. ' When the na tives iu charge of a caravansary spied an approa.-hing caravan, they instantly rushed out, cuught smno fowls, wrung their necks, ami an hour later served them, scarco dead, to tho travelers; beneo tho name spatchcock. That jour ney ueross tho desert was most trying to women and children, and the railroad from Sue to Cairo in 1 H.V.I was hailed as a vast improvement over the caravan method of travel. Tell years later camo tho canal.

Tlio vicious Levantines, of till eastern races, aud tho equally vicious Europeans from ev ery part oi tno comment sccuieu iu wako into activity only at tno approacu of a ship. Then ilaucohouste, gambling hells mid every sortof evil resort opened wide their doors to tho delayed traveler. Perhojis it is better now, or possibly worse, for in these days a single com pany pays more than 1 1,000.000 a year iu tolls, and there is au almost contin uous procession of ships through tno canal. "Tho Suea canal is in somo rospeots tho most wonderful waterway in tno world. As soon as tho traveler enters it bo realizes that ho is in tho hands of tlio French. A French speakiug pilot takes possession of tlio ship, and all oflicers of the canal aro Frenchmen. Tho gares, ol turnouts, where n ship waits to li t an other pass, aro in tno c-uargo i i uw French soldiers, and it is charming tc seo how they beautify thoir arid sur roundings. When tho sand or tlio desert is watered, it almost bursts with bow ers, and at overy garo ar a neatly paint ed littlo house nnd a blooming garden, while grass edges tlio canal, and tho dreariest region on eartli is transformed by French thrift Ono or tne mosi in trosting sights to tho canal in early days was to seo ono ship meet another. Tho passengers on each crowded for ward with greetings and tlio waving oi handkerchiefs, and thero wero tears from tho outward bound ut the thought of what the homeward bound wero soon to boo. Tho meeting of ships is now no longer a novelty. I oneo encountered tho Khedive Tewfik's yacht, with his harem on board, ns we rassed through tho canal. Of courso wo caught no glimpfO of tho ladies, but Tuwlik and Do Lesseps, who was bis guest, came out on tho spouson beam to greet us, and wo manned tho yards with native sailors in honor of tho two. "Tho canal passago is mado iu from 17 to 24 hours, und sinco .ho uso of powerful cloctrio lights has mado night :. ninii iii tho canal possible tho journey from England to India is mado with few serious delays.

One of ho curious features of navigation iu tho canal and tho Red sea is the absence of largo sailing craft Tho Rod sea is so t, .,t in with mountains on either coast that tho progress of a largesailing ship would bo extr,mciy now .. -tended with danger from sudden squalls. Such a passago of tho Red sea would be almost intolerable, for tho Seat is op rressive. and tho monotony of tho arid iainti.ills ashore is tedious beyond ex pression.

We do not say that our present supply ol gas and water is p.

It was one day, when cogitating on the vast machinery requisite to meet the demands of Londoners, and more espe cially to keep them in a healthy sanita ry condition, that 1 was led to visit the outfall works of Crossness, whero the sewage from the south side of Londoll is poured into the Thames.

The sewage in tho course of treatment Hows 11I0114; lingo reservoirs. Tho How is very slow, in order Unit the majolilyof solids may be deposited. It flows finally over a weir wall, and tbeiice into the river. This is called the diluent. This treatment necessitates the use of 15 to IS tons or lime per day, and t to " tons of protosnlphiilo of iron. The sewnge is drained oil Iho reservoirs every two days, and men go down and thmoiighly clean all the slndgo out, which is swept down to a siimp and pumped from thero into tho sludge set tling channels, where it undergoes 11 lur Iber draining. It is then let down into a lowet sl.ulge store and pumped trom I thero on to ships and taken tu sea. Fif I teen to twenty thousand tons per week ot sludge are sent to sea. Theie are five sludgeships altogether, which are sent out ut every tide. They go somo -10 miles away to tho Harrow deeps.

Some strange things get Into tlio sew ers of London, and now and again bu llies bavo been found. Such are some of tho most important features of a sec tion of the great machinery of tlio me tropolis, which never rests, never sleeps. Notwithstanding the room which exists for further improvement in thedisposal of its sewage, the reduction which has been brought uliout In the death rate of London In modem times is as notewor thy as it Is satisfactory. In tho latter hull of the seventeenth century the av erage mortality of Loudon is said to have been not less than b0 per 1.000, at tho end of the eighteenth century it had dropped to 50 per 1,000, while iu 1800 it had falh-n to 10.8 per 1,000. Tho main intercepting and principal blanch sewers which have been cnu structed for tho conveyanco of tho sew ago of London to tho two outfalls into the river Thames at Harking und Cross ness respectively measure aliout HO Eng lish miles. As illustrating the magni tude of London, it has been computed that tho streets und roads within the metropolis, if placed end to end in one continuous lino, would measure alsmt 3,500 miles, equal to tho distance from London to Lund's End, thence across tho Atlantic ocean to the mouth of tlio gulf of St. Lawrence in Canada ou tlio west, or going eustward would extend across tho entire continent of EuroKi and beyond tlio Urul mountuius Into Asia. So ono can nnderstnnd at a glance what it means to control its drainage, water supply, etc. Supposing we wero to employ animals to do tho work which our engines do for us in pumping water and sewage, wo should require four times the number of horses in the entire Kritish army, both at homo and abroad. This gives some idea of the labor In volved in giving us our water and tak inguwny our sewage.

It is, however, very often the Indirect cause nf death, either by bring ing disease to a climax or by rendering tlio sulfer. r more liable to its attack. If a man is convinced that his grief Is mora than he can bear, those who have studied the matter agree that, through Iho force of his own imagination, tho man w ill actually did from a "broken heart." The great Napoleon was killed by an internal disease, but it is supposed that it would not have been fatal had ut his spirits been so depressed through exile and ih feat. William Pitt, the or ator, is said to have died from a "bro ken heait, " caused by his great grief at the failure of his cherished hopes and plans.
