The Terriflo Battle Between a Wtiale and Three -Orcaa. Enemies Before Vbom tbe Giant of the Ocean Flees in Terror Their Singular Method of Attacking: the Monster. Hank Welsh, who has followed whal injf for many years, was lucky enough to be one of a crew beyond the gulf of the Holy Cross last spring that came upon a large whale in, distress, sur rounded by three monster orcas, or tillers, which, had him winded and badly wounded. The story of the fight was told as follows by Welsh to the San Francisco Chronicle: "We saw a big broadhead half a mile away to windward, and he kept a jumping; so hard that we knew he was in trouble. When we got closer we saw some thrashers or billers afoul of him, and the water for an acre or two around was bloody. The orcas were pretty big ones and very vicious, especially one which was fully twenty feet long, and when the whale went down a few fathoms - this old boy rushed down after .him, and gave.it to him hard. You see a whale can. stay under about half an hour, and he can go down four or five hundred fathoms without minding the pressure, but he can't do a single submarine trick ahead of an orca. These orcas sometimes chase ' a whale so hard that when he hits the bottom he breaks his jawbone- Well, this old orca followed the whale so savagely that he did not stay down over five minutes at a time, and when he came up he was jumped on by the other two, which kept watch on him like two hungry wolves. When he saw the ferocious gang he seemed to lose heart, for they were too quick for him. I think he was just about worn out or down-hearted or something, for he anchored for a second. This gave the big orca a chance to slide up and catch him by the under lip and bite a piece out. The old fellow lashed and dived, but down went another orca after him. "When the whale came up the orca had him by the lip, and the third one caught him by the tongue. Now, a whale's tongue is six feet long and weighs as much as a man. The way the orcas jerked it all out of him piece by piece and then ate off . his lower lip in spite of all he could do beat all the fights under the sun. How. that whale did'suffer till we got up and let a dy namite bomb into him. When Bill Peters lanced him he seemed to enjoy it, for he turned over and died easily." It seems to be agreed among all whalers that no fight ever seen equals the awful combats which these sea monsters wage against one another with unflagging ferocity. The orca is the only grampus or warm-blooded an imal of the ocean that constantly preys upon warm-blooded creatures of his own kind, preferably the whale, the largest of his species. The orca's hab its are predatory and his strength and ferocity are remarkable. "The orcas often travel with sword fish," said Capt. Thompson, an old whaler, "and I have sometimes seen a whole school in combat with four or five orcas and a few swordfish. When the swordfish get under a whale and the orcas commence to tear his under lip and tongue, which are choice mor sels for them, he seems to know his days are numbered. I don't know how long a whale can live after these sav age creatures attack him, but our crews have found several carcasses of whales which had bled to death from the wounds thus inflicted by their ene mies. I have also seen broken-backed orcas which had been struck by a whale's llue:;." Guaranteed Cure.

The leaf and stem of a nettle are literally clothed with erect hollow hairs. If one of these hairs is viewed under a microscope it will be seen that its free end, after tapering to a very fine degree of slimness, finishes as a little knob, while in the other direc tion, after gradually becoming more robust, it suddenly expands into a large bulb corresponding with the poison gland of the adder. . The point of the hair, says- "Good Words, is very brittle, 'and contact with our skin causes the end to snap off, leaving a hollow needle point which readily pierces our cuticle, and, pressing upon the bulb at the other end, the poison is forced though the central channel and inflames our blood. The tenderhanded who stroke the nettle are stung for their pains, because their gentleness has only served to break the brittle points and render them fit for piercing, but the rough-handed break the hairs at their thickest parts, where they are too stout to prick. Our common nettles, though they are capable of inflicting considerable an noyance upon many persons, afe too insignificant, nevertheless, to be in cluded among vegetable monsters, and we have only referred to them for the sake of making clear the enormities of some big cousins giants of the nettle family. These are, first, the Urtica stimulans and Urtica crenulata of the East Indies, species whose attack upon one's band is sufficient to cause tbe arm to swell with a most frightful pain, which lasts for weeks. But even these are milk-and-water nettles by compar ison with the Urtica urentissima, which grows in Timor, where it bears the sig nificant title of Daoun setan, or devil's leaf. The effects of its sting last for a year and have often produced death. Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that Contain Mercury, .
