On board wore scvernl professionals besides "our tenor," and they were preparing to give us a free matinee, which turned out to be unique In more particulars 'thai tbls'one. The space Immediately In front of the pilot bouse was used for tbe stage, and we were ranged alc:;g the deck, tbe most of us seated, a few from ne. cesslty Btandlng, and sonio lolling against the outer railing, where tbo wind had a fair, cleau sweep at them. And bow col l and strong It blew that August afternoon, and bow the ship rocked! Tuo graceful- lollcrs shifted their positions' every now and then to mi re themselves from going overboard. Wo biittour.l our coats tight and turn ed the collars up as high as possible to keep from f.vezlng, aud to my certain knowledge tlr.ee of the party hud to leave between acts for something to warm them up Just as tbey do on html. The curtain rose to the Jolllcst musc that Bi:ely was ever picked from "an 'j.iniit." ntul n llttlo iloiiAnp tnnn.ut forth and made a graceful bow. And so we had found out at last she was an actress, and slie'had broken Cliff's heart! It happened this way: At the table opposite ours she sat three times daily, and Cliff, wltb bis eyes' upon her, had seasoned highly each morsel we took and each subject we discuss ed wit u comments oh her beauty and her clothes! She wore such a' fetching little biouseV w'lth'sucb pretty red cuffs and big sailor collar and abbreviated skirts, that she was JuBt the most Irre sistible little bit of bright springtime maidenhood that a man could flud;ou land or sen when wo first saw her. Hut one afternoon she came down wearing tbe regulation shirt waist ana a skirt so long that It laid full down on the floor all around. That dny we ate our dinner In" peace,' for Cliff, after one deep, reproachful glance, made nn exchange at table' and sat' for the bnl auce of the trip with his eyes turned to the unchanging sea! And now she was Just a little danc ing girl, nothing more, and we soon forgot that she had ever been anything else. Itnrely hud stage such a duncer or ..dancer siicb: a stage! She began with a slow, graceful movement that grew faster and faster as she went on and on till It seemed as If she was run ning a race with tbe rocking, dipping stage and the mad and merry music, and they each In turn with the sway ing, dancing girl; then all three togeth er, faster and still faster, till suddenly the music came to an end, the stuge for an Instnnt stood still, anil the girl, with' a bow and a smile that showed all her pretty teeth, stepped off and was Instantly reconverted Into one of those small, blight particles that go to make up the sunshine of tbo masculine world. Froin comedy to tragedy, stern and real, we passed with only a breathing space between. The first solium notes were drawn from the mellow strings of nn old violin, and tbo first words breathed by a voice so deep and rich that all things, save the sea, was hush ed to listen, "Rocked In tbe Cradle of tbe Deep." On no other stage can this song souud, can It be quite the same. 1 leaned far over the railing and looked down with a wondering, questioning gazo upon the murmuring waves. What were they saying' The answor came in that rich, mellow voice: "And calm and peaceful la my sleep, ltotk'd in the cradle of the deep." The unspeakable) magnetism' embod ied In those whve's'has surely been felt by every heart weary, heavy burdened wuuderer from' land. Just to drop overbonrd, one moment's wild agony, and then, secure upon the wave, to lay me down In peace to sleep. "I feci It sincerely." I looked up In surprise and found the speaker, a heartbroken man, Judging by his snd face and bis sadder voice, my vis-a-vis at' table, close beside m6. That restless, restless water has the same fascination for me! I have been ashamed of the feeling. I bave tried, but I cannot subdue It. And, after all, wby Is It not best to give up the strug gle and end It right here aud now? What Is the use of living on when all that life holds sacred Is gone gone be yond recall? That music, that music! It has aililcd the last link In the chain that fate Is drawing around me, and I am glad, for I long to be at rest! "And calm and peaceful is mjr eleep, Bock'd In the cradle of the deep." Softly be repeated the words, then looked at me and smiled. The struggle was over I saw It In bis face! With a hoarse cry, I sprang to my feet! I call ed for help; but, alas, It was too latel The music now was hushed and drown ed by another cry which passed from lip to Hp that cry that, once heard, will never be forgotten, "Man over board! Man overboard!" Sunny South. Victor Hneo on Shakeepeare. Rhnkesnenri. like .flCschylus. Is nrod- iirnl with the unfathomable. The un fathomable Is the Inexhaustible.

Ask my mate, him that's rowing that 'ere cou ple out yonder. We wers shipmates to gether on board tho lUJapootab In dlamau. Ills father, who is dead and gone this twenty Tears or enure, jvas carpenter aboard of hr. Chips we used to call him, and If you don't mind listening to arc old salt who's been round the world enough times to make a landsman giddy at tbe very thought of It I'll Just tell you of a little adventure we had wltb one of them man eating monsters. Well, one day we were becalmed on tbe line when says young Bill be was young says be, "I shall have a swim round for s cooler," for, belle? me, the sun whs that hot we had to throw buckets of water on the deck to keep It from catching Are. bo In he goes, head first, with hit clothes ou, and me and his old man looked over the side Just abaft the fort rigging to see him come to the top of the water again. But no 11111 could we see, and Instead of him came up a tremendous shark with his side sticking out as It he had a cargo Inside over and aboTo his reg ular bill o' lading. It was then as clear to us as the nose on our faces that poor Bill had dived clean down Its throat The poor old man had a fit right away, and we carried him below and put him In his hammock and then ran up on deck again In the hope that we should be able to catch the fellow. But It was nowhere to be seen, so after watching some time to no pur pose we went down below to see how the old man was getting on, snd to out astonishment and sorrow wo found his body nenrly cold and as stiff as the fly ing Jlbboom. We sewed him up In his hammock, putting tho grindstone that he used tc grind his tools with Inside to make It sink, aud laid the body on a batch with the union Jack spread over it for a nail Then the skipper read the funeral service, all of us standing round. As soon as the skipper had finished the last words, which I shall never for get they was so solemn the hatch was tipped up, and overboard the body went witn a splash, and all was over at least we thought so. Hut almost Immediately afterward up comes another Bhark a bigger one, it seemed, than the first certainly it was thicker. The boatswain at once ran for the shark hook and baited It wltb a Junk of pork and slung It over the stem, ami It was not many minutes before we had him booked and hauled on deck. Well, the first thing we did was to cut his tall off, for he was flapping 11 about, so that it shook the ship froml stem to stern, and we were afraid 1 would shake her to pieces. After we had done that we though we hoard a very strange noise inside o. him a sort of grating sound, like boat being dragged over a shlngl oeucn. So we set to and cut off his head an then ripped him up, when, what d'ycj ...i,n n tuit.n, nuuk BUUU1U V C OCB, 9 OOr grOI DorAlllohniAlll on.l ft... A nil, - his father sitting upright like two nabs, the youngster turning the grin stone and tbe old man sharpening 1 knife, intending to cut their way u of the creature s belly. You say I said the old man was dei Please don't Interrupt me, and I'll t you all about it There's no doubt but what he seem dead, but It was only his blood frcj with horror, and the Bbartt warm him to life again. What mtwlA klm ..... -iJ cm saia, was tbe Bllpperlness sua topsy turvlness of the place, for then was no rest at all, for one minute he was standing on his bead and the next on bis feet and then tossed from one Bide to the other, sometimes getting jammed between its ribs, and he won dered the meal didn't disagree with tbe flsb itself. But at last came the climax, and Bill thought It wag all over with hinr, fot down Its throat was shot a heavy body nice a sock 01 coais right atob of him nearly smothering him, a6 that he had scarcely room to move or breathe, and he must have been some tlma' Inscn alble, he said; whetVhd was'woke up by a louu report. He thought for a moment tbe crea ture had swallowed a powder barrel and It had exploded, but It was only the bursting of the canvas shroud tin old man was sewed up In, which bad blown up Ilka a paper bag; The noise In Its inside, Bill said, must have astonished the shark, for be again found himself standing upon his head, so he knew It was making for the surface, and on reaching there it open ea its enormous jaws ror air, when a flood of light entered between the rowi of teeth, which enabled Bill, on gain ing his feet, to take stock of his lodg ings, and the very first thing that ha saw was his old father crawling out from under the canvas like a chick from Its shell. Tbe old man had caught sight of the grindstone and soon put It Into work ing order, and on the flab ones more coming to the top and again admitting light Bill at once saw what was In the wind, mid they commenced bunlaesa at once, when they were startled by a sud den change in the shark's movements and soon they distinctly beard the sound of human voices, aud they knew they were saved. Well, we nil was bo thankful at theli miraculous escape from the Jaws of death that every mother's son of us on board took our solemn affidavits thai we'd never tell a lie or anything of that kind again, and me and my matt bare kept our words ever since. 1 ANOTHER PI0XEER DEAD.
