t'!‘ J‘ ‘-Â¥ZfiIZâ€"3‘IFAMOUS MUTINIES Ethe fleet. WHEN BRITISH SAILORS WENT 0N STRIKE. â€"3â€" Richard Parker Rose From Sea- man to be “President of the Floating Republic.” Somewhat over a century ago, when England was fighting for her life, a mutinous spirit spread like the plague through a great part of And, strange to say, our Government was almost as helpless in face of the outbrcllc as Russia found herself. Our famous mutiny of the Nore commenced on April 14th, 1797. Quite unsuspicious of disaffection among his men, Admiral Bridport gave the order for the Channel Squadron to proceed to sea. But the seamen of his own ship, instead of obeying the order, ran up the shrouds, and gave three cheersâ€"the appointed signal of rebellion to the whole fleet. The men then made a demand for an advance in wages, to the amount of 303. per month; and an increase in their allowance of provisions. We Were at war with Spain, France, and Holland, and noâ€" thing remained to the Government but to yield to the men’s demands. Order was quickly restored, and the ships set sailâ€"all but three, which were left behind. But, curiously, our Government was as slow to carry out its prom- ise as the Russian hierarchy. On May 7th, a much more serious muâ€" tiny broke out on the ships moored at the Norc. It began when Admirâ€" al Colpoys ordered the men to go below and remain.quiet. They obeyâ€" ed at first, but very soon tried to force their way on deck. Admiral Colpoys thereupon ordered the Ma- rines to fire. Only a few oflicers obeyedâ€" KILLING FIVE MEN. The Marines threw doWn their arms and, the men, coming on deck, seized Lieutenant Dover, put a rope round his neck. and prepared to hang him. But, with fine bravery, the admiral stepped forward, saying: "If anyone is to blame it is I. I gave the order to fire." He and his officers were seized and locked in their cabins for twenty- four hours, after which they were sent ashore. Then followed a terrible state of things, under the leadership of Richâ€" ard Parker, who, from an able- seaman, Suddenly rose to be "Pre- sident of the Floating Republic.” The mutineers paraded Sheernesss with red flags, took ships out of the harbor, sent boats up the river to win over the ships lying at Long Beach. They stopped merâ€" chant ships going up and down, and effected a veritable blockade of London. By this time the mutinous fleet Was a very strong forceâ€" thirteen sail of the line, together with many sloops, frigates and gunboats. One of the favorite amusements of the men was to tie the officers to the end of a rope, attach a cannon ball to their feet, hoist them to the yardâ€"arm, and then suddenly DROP THEM: INTO THE WATER. What the Government did in these circumstances seems curious. They offered pardon to the men if they would return to their duty. And on May 29th they sent dowu three Lords of the Admiralty to treat with the rebels; but the latter be- haved with such insolence that the Admiralty Lords returned without doing anything. Soon, however. three mutinous ships deserted. Then, on June 9th, when “President” Parker gave the order to sail, no ship obeyed it. Next day the officers of the Leopard with a few loyal seamen, succeeded in cowing the mutineers aboard, and bringing away the ship. On May 13th Parker’s own ship, the Sandâ€" wich, surrendered, and that was the end of the mutiny. Parker and a number of the lead- ing spirits wore tried by court-mar- tial, and hanged on June 30th. The men of the whole fleet, however, got their "rise" in wages of 55. 6d. a month. an increased allowance of provisions, full pay while suffering from wounds, and other advantâ€" ages. . In 1801, at Dantry Bay, in Ireâ€" land, the men, complaining of bad food and other grievances, deter- mined that they would refuse to sail to the West Indies whenever the orâ€" der should be given. It never came to anything more than a general agreement to mutiny. But this was considered sufficient to justify the hanging of thirteen men. The men of the frigate Danae mu- “- “h. t r _.., .- .5". ,. 1.1.2:" A,t..._ YOUNG AS EVER IIIR. CHESTER .LOOMIS TOOK DODD’S KIDNEY PILLS. And From a Used Up Man He Beâ€" came as Smart as a Boy.

Perhaps the most interesting of all Bsitish mutinies was that of II.M.S. Bounty, in 1789, which gave us the little colony of Pitcairn Island. The Bounty, under the command of Ad- miral Bligh, went to Otaheite, for the purpose of bringing away some breadâ€"fruit for acclimitisation in the West Indies. -For six months the ship lay there, and the luxurious and free life demoralized the men. Soon after the Bounty sailed with her cargo, twentyâ€"three of the men seizâ€" ed the captain while asleep, with eighteen of the crew, put them in a | SCOTCH FISI'IERY FAILS.
