Experience of an Amateur rirate on the
Chinese Coast.
It has surely fallen to the lot of few
men to come near starving to death in
a land of plenty, with over $900 in gold
in their pocket nay, by reason ol tnat
very fact. I had shipped at Rangoon
on board a steamer bound for btiangnai,
savs a writer. When I signed she was
flying Jardine'8 flag at the main, but I
believed she carried the ensign of every
nation and half the house flags of the
world in her signal locker. An opium
smuggler I was prepared to find her;
that her chief business on thewaters
was piracy of the vilest sort and unre
deemed by a glint 'of romance came
upon me certainly as a revelation.
We attacked no ships, as far as I
know, but, handled with marvelous
skill and knowledge of the intricate
coast navigation, she would run in after
nightfall among the rocks and banks
where one would expect a sampan to
take the bottom, while shrieks, flames,
the report of firearms and clash of steel
would testify to the descent of my de
lectable shipmates upon one or another
of the numerous fishing villages which
fringe the shores of the China sea.
After four months' duress I struck a
blow for liberty.- My little hoard of
morphia jealously guarded toward
this eventuality deepened the narco
tism in which the whole crew lay
stepped after a ghastly debauch as we
rode at anchor, and, forsaking all my
goods and chattels and seizing in lieu
such moneys as I could find, I dropped
into the dingey and pulled off, shoeless,
hatless, arrayed only in a shirt, trousers
and belt containing the above named
sum (close on 200), hoping to reach a
German gunboat which had been sight
ed in the offing earlier in the day.
But the night was thick and in less
than an hour I found myself close in
shore. The question of what to do was
speedily settled by the boat capsizing
among the breakers, leaving me no al
ternative but to land,. Day was break
ing and I lay till next morniog In a tomb
cut above the roud in the hillside, and for
the next three weeks I nearly perished
for lack of uourishment, not daring to
exhibit a gold pieces for I had no weap
on and would certainly have been
robbed and murdered.,
; I would gladly have thrown away all
but one piece, but there was no single
small coin In the turn total, and the re
sult would have been the same. Though
a good wnlker st that age (I had made
a record of 20 miles not long before and
could cover 300 a week without a blis
ter) I accomplished no more than 200
miles in 22 doyii traveling only by
ight and biding In tombs or ditches
II day, often rushing back to my last
deserted lair in terror of the advancing
sun when no suitable place of conceal
ment hove lu sight.
uith pndtly and plantains unatchetl
precariously here and there I managed
to exist during those awful weeks.
Chan-Chan Is not regarded a a terres-
rial paradise by those EuroiM'ons
whom fate malign tins compelled to
sojourn there, but Walballa was never
hailed with greater ecstacy by the
world-worn pilgrim than wan that ce
Mini sink by ruyaelf. Toward the
0th dny the smell of ment cooking !
solutely overcome meone morning, and,
I the peril of my life, I emerged into
he light of day, and laid f.donloua
bands and teeth on what I believed
was a rt of a baked rat, in the temn-
rary abaence of the legitimate landlord
thereof. London Standard.

THE BATTLE OF , WATERLOO.
If Grouchy Had rrevented Prussian Junc
tion with English-
; Napoleon woulif have won the battle
of VVaverloo had. Grouchy prevented tJie
junction of the Prussians with the Eng
lish army .because he would not have had
to fight two battles at once. ' FeW per
sons reajjzc that the so-called battle of
Waterloo was in reality a double battle,
somewhat like Jena and Auerstadt.
Napoleon ' fought one battle' at Water
loo against the English, - On the arrival
of the Prussians he was forced to go in
person toward Planchenhoit and there
fight another battle against the Prus
sian army.lcaving to Ney the conduct oi
the troops at Waterloo, It is a well
known maxim in war that a very great
or decisive victory cannot be gained un
less one commander makes , a serious
blunder, of which the other takes im
mediate advantage. It is very evident
that the fact of the emperor's having
to fight two battles at once, instead of
concentrating his attention on one
nlone,- enormously increased the posm
bility of a mistake. Moreover, Na
poleon did not have the able lieutenants
f his former campaigns. Dessaix, Klo-
ber, Lannea, and Bessiers were deud,
Massena and Macdonald had taken the
oath of allegiance to the Bourbons, and
Murat had split with the emperor.
Napoleon's personal attention was,
therefore, imperative. To Grouchy
lone all blame must be attributed, for,
had he prevented the union of the
Prussians with the English, the em
peror would have had to fight only one
battle at time, and coultl have givn
his entire personal attention to that
one hat tile.
In the second place, Napoleon would
not have been forced to Ilfht with 71,
947 men nga'.nst two arm im numbering
about 125,000 nearly tw to one

only Inferior In mere numbers, but fur
Inferior in morale and ex oerienee. The
chances would have been greatly in fu
for of the French. Then, too, the
French army was commanded by the
acknowledged masters of modern war
fare, whose brilliant auccrttsca at
Hivoll, Marengo, AiiHtcrlitz, Jena Fried-
land, Wngrinn, the Borodjiui, and Dres

Take Nearly Ten
, Yeara to Count It,
The following reniarkable calculation
on the length of trme which it would
lake a person tocount 1,000,000,000 re
cently appeared in an issue of an Eng
lish periodical: What is a billion?
The reply is very simple. In England a
billion is a million times a million.'
(1,000,000,000,000). Thia is quickly
written, ! and quicker still pro
nounced. But no man is able to
count it. You will count 100 or 170 a
minute. But let us suppose that you go
up at hfgh as 200 a minute; hour after
hour. At that rate you would count
12,000 an hour; 288,000 a day, or 105.-
120,000 in a year. Let us suppose now;
that Adam, at the beginning of his ex-
stence.had begun to count, and had con
tinued to do bo and was counting still.
Had such a thing been possible, he
would not yet have finished' the task
of counting a billion! To count a bil
lion would require a person to count
"00 n minute for a per;od of 0,512 years,
542 days, 5 hours and 20 minutes, provid--ing
he should count continuously. But
suppose we allow the counter 12 hours
daily for rest, eating and sleeping. Then
he would need 18,025 years, 319 days, 10
hours and 45 minutes in which to com-
letethetuRk!
A Raspberry Ice Cream.
The most delicious ice creams are
those flavored with fruit juicea or fruit
pulps. They do not usually contain
eggs; therefore, they are more like a
slicrlet than a regular Ice cream, ex
cept t hat milk or cream or part of both
are substituted for the water used In a
aherU't. Raspberry cream la one. of
the most delightful of these light
creams. Boil two uunrtaof raspberries
with a pint of sugar for ten niinutee.
Ptruin oil the juiee and squeeze the pulp
out of the rruoplierry. Add It slowly to
a pint of hoiking milk. Freeze thin mix
ture. When It is cooled, and Just before.
It Is ready to puck away, id a pint of
creoin beaten to a stiff froth. Pack
the cream away for three hours and it
w ill lie rrndy to serve. A delicate white
cuke, flavored with bitter almond, is
an excellent accompaniment to thia
cream. A cream inner or an equal quan
tity of chopjH'd pineapple, cooked In a
lint of sugar and ssrained, or of
M'ficlicM, niny Imi un-il. Strain the pine
apple or Ihe -nchc through a puree
Rieve that, will allow all tho fruit pulp
to pase through. . 1. Tribune.
