"We were only, a few hours out whén @ tremendous gale set in, and Satis ed with increasing violence an . The sea was moun- taitffolls, and 'tossed the schooner about' like a cork, now high on the crest, now plunged in the trough. The* 'decks were continually a-wash; great seas broke over her, and we all hdd many narrow escapes of bein swept into the sea as we craw} about on our duties. "For _four days we. battled against the' gales; our eraft ereaked and strained, but we hoped she would re- tain' tight till the gale abated. On the fourth day, however, the schoon- er strained fo that she sprang a bad leak, and the next thing we learned was that there was three feet of water in the hold, rising steadily. "All 'hands manned the pumps and toiled 'at' them despérately, without ceasing, day and night, for the best {part of 4 week. Had we rested we should have gone under, and even with the efforts that utterly exhaust ed us the water gained. "No help was in sight en the tumbl- ing ocean, and at last we began to de spair. In a last attempt to save the ship we threw the cargo overboard, yet with the decks only two inches above the water we were forced to look death in the face. "We had abandoned hope, when at the last moment, we sighted 8 steamer, We made frantic efforts to attract her attention, but she held on her course without seein "8uch a sight compelled despair, but life is dear, and \we toiled anew at the pumps of the pokr old stagger- ing wreck. Our two ts and most of the rigging were gone. "For 'twenty-four hours longer we worked like. slaves-with the grip of death upon us. And then, just as physical exhaustion was conquering ug at lash, we saw a large vessel rap- idly bearing down. She turned out to be the German Lloyd liner Main, commanded by Captain Jansen, from New York for Bremer. Our decks were then flush with the sea, and we had dearcely strength' to keep our sglves from being washed overboard. The heavy gale was still raging, but a lifeboat 'was launched from the liner, and they rescued us, with much difficulty and danger, ft was not easy to beliéve, 'is we stood safe on alive." prt -- "Truscott's Folly." {The 'election of Sir George Wyatt Truscott as Lord Mayor of London for next year calls to mind the fact that his father, Sir Francis Trus- cott, 'who Was 'Lord Mayor in 1879; was responsible for the Griffin that marks the site of Temple Bar. The heraldic beast, which, when set up, was the object of much derision, was popularly know. as "Trascott's Folly""--an appellation Jone. forgot: ten. The new Lord Mayor, like gen tal Sir 'William Treloar, has a soft place in his heart for the young. In August of this year a lad of 18 ears, who had absconded with near { $1,000 belonging to his employers, was brought before him at the Man. sion House. In the course of the evidente it transpired that, although only receiving-a weekly wage of $5, large sums in. cash passed through his hands daily. Sir George, 'after inquiries about hig character, sen: tenced the young fellow to only six weeks' in the second division. Sir George is no lover of the man who cannot hold his tongue, and on one oecasion imposed an extra fine upon a, cabman for hjs garrulity. The man was accused of having turn ,ed to 'the right, instead of the left, when driving out of Liverpool Strépt station, Londen--a regulation with whieh al! drivers are expected to comply: The defendant urged that he did not understand this regula. tion, and did not know what he was supposed to do. But he" pleaded his cause too lengthily and too frequent "Five shillings and costs," said & George, in giving judgment, "for talking so much. If you -had net talked so: much, I would not have fined you so much." Monte Carlo "Maxims." The recent roulette contest between Lord Rosslyn and Sir Hiram Maxim aroused such widespread interest in this country that dispensers of rou lette grheels and boards and counters found themselves quite unable tc meet the rush of orders for these ar- ticles. Sir Hiram, as is well known, is no believer in. "the man with a system," and is constantly amazed at what he calls" the lack of intelli gence in most of these gamblers." On one occasion he had taken great trou- ble to show the exact matheniatical chances of the game to an ardent "rouletter." The player listened in- tantly. At the conclusion, however he came out with 'a triumphant re- | futation of the scientist' s arguments. "Why, Sir Hiram," he exelaimed, "you have allowed nothing for good luck I" Ny A "A Plucky Little Beggar." When Admiral Sir John Fisher first entered the navy there were few more p ular youngsters in the serviee. ere never was such a plucky lit- tle beggar," remarked an old ship- mate, referrifig to 'those early days. "He was as quick as a monkey, keen as a needle, hard as nails; would do anything or go.afiywhere; didn't know what fear was, or that there was such a word in the language as 'can't'; and yet with it al} he was one of the Juictget most modest fellows I have the big ships eg that we were still , .
