A story of the manner in whioh the hulk of the historio old Kearsarge, now whitening on Ronoador reef, is being despoiled by Caribbean sea wreckers, and of the awkard predicament of two of thorn who were at work npon her, is told by Mate Sohwolow of the schooner Frank M. Noyes, which arrivea irom San Andreas with coooaunta. On Oct 28, he says, while outward bonnd from Baltimore, the Noyes stood close into the Kearsarge's wreck. To the nrorise of all onboard a white flag was seen fluttering from the bones of the gallant old corvet, and soon after a small boat was seen pulling off from her. Captain Asqnini ordered the Noyes hove to, and in a few minutes she waa boarded by two bearded wreckers who said they belonged to one of the Carmen of islands. They told Captain As- A fortress is shown with onini they had been landed on the reefs Japanese soldiers storming it.

The Japan Mail says that even the game of chess is transformed, the figures being paint ed clay images representing Japanese and Chinese soldiers of various ranks. A long line of mechanical toys, either of tin or wood, by turning a crank, or by simple clockwork, are made to show Chinetft combatants in a large variety of unenviable positions, sometimes pursued by Japanese troopers, who make terrific sweeps with swora or lance in a bwmhj seesaw, or prisoners, caught by their cnes and trying to avoid the rising and falling blades. Clay figures representing Chinamen pleading for mercy are used as paper weights or desk ornaments. In another bit of mechanism a Japanese warship is gradually closing with a Chi nese vessel The latter is struck, her flag comes down with a rush, and the rinnmnd vessel sinks beneath the wild . tin waves.

Captain Asquini supplied the men with all that waa necessary to sustain them for some time to come, mey would not leave he reef, for they did not want to abandon their copper treasure.-They appreciated Captain Asquini's kindness, and to show it they wished to return to the wreck and take back to him some mementos of the famous craft A favoring wind made Captain Asqnini decline their offer, and soon the Nnves filled her sails and sped off to ward San Andreas.

Within two years he built several boats .nd anl.i them, and thus began the Herreshoff fame as boat builders. The oldest of the present generation is James Brown Herreshoff, a graduate of Brown university, who now lives in California..

Brown Herreshoff, who is the oldest bf the three blind brothers, is the busing head, of tho works at Bristol, and with his brother Nat shares the dis tinction of having produced many ol the fastest-boats afloat. He began whit tling out bouts as soon as he could use a jackknife, and when 14 built a good sized yacht for sailing on Narragausott bay.. About this time he was stricken with blindness, but he kept on building boats, with what success the world knows. Lewis Herreshoff, who is also bund, is a musician of some note. Nathaniel Greene Herreshoff, or "Cantain Nat." who is most widoly known as the designer of the Defender, is the mechanical genius of the lamiiy. He was graduated from the institute of technology, where he took prizes in physics and mathematurs. He was for a number of years employed at the Corliss Engine works in Providence, and at the same time did the designing for the Herreshoff company and . modeled most of their sailing aud steam yachts. Since 1877 he has given his entire attention to marine engineering and has design ed and built a number of boats whose speed and weatherly qualities have pro duced a revolution in yacht building.
