The cravings of hunger were reawaken

munching away at my newly acquired
rapply. while I still Btood a kind of
fascination over the body of ray victim.
1 How strange to be eating the food pre
pared for one who had no need for it !
To be tasting the flavor, whioh somehow
I did not altogether like, that possibly
he would have been tasting now had not
all power of taste snddenly gone out of
him forever! Then his Bible lying there
reminded me that we were both practi
cally of the same belief. Two Christians,
whose religion told them to Jove one an
other, meeting in the midst of i heathen

Will? - No, tratiwithont even a word of

r. And. a great Tembrse comes over me.
What right had I to take his life? By
killing him, in what torrent of grief and
ruin may I not have involved a wife and
bairns? Did I not fire before there was
need for it? In vain I tell myself that
had I not killed him he would have
gathered me. j
All feeling of animosity is drowned
in that of pity. At any rate if his com
rades find him, they shall know that we
"Rooi-batches" bear no grudge, but
have -some good feeling in us. May it
help to dispose them more peaceably to
ward us ! . . - .
So, after a very! short meal, I "stow
the ammunition and the remainder of
the food into my pocket Then I drag
tne body from where it lies, leaving
uujy Diaox, snining DK)tcn among tne
stones, into a shallow cleft between the .
rocks.! Here I turn it on to its back and
see the pale, dead face, the paler for the
contrast with its black beard in the
clear moonlight. I close the glassy,
'staring eyes and compose, the limbs in
their narrow bed, and then, with large
bowlders, I overbridge the grave and
fill up every crevice well with stones.

EXIT THE BLUEJACKET.
Ta . Modern Steam Battleehipe Athletia
Slora Flay BElnor Fart. : .
A proportion, of the bluejackets of any
fully tigged ship were necessarily ath
letes. "The "upper yardmen" in a line
of battle ship or a frigate were excep
tional men in this way, and much more
bo perhaps just about the time that sail
power was receiving its death warrant
than ever before. These young men had
to race aloft to nearly the highest points,
at top speed, eight or ten times : a week
when the ship was in harbor, to keep
their heads and maintain their breath
while '.'holding on by their eyelids," as
the phrase . went, and manipulating
with a careful and. measured order of
action the various and intricate arrange
ments for ''crossing' or "sending down"
the royal and topgallant yards. '. It was
all done at full speed, for it was uni
versally held Ihat-, the upper yardmen
gave a character to tne wnoie snip and
that one which was foremost in this ex
ercise was ever considered "the smart
est ship in the fleet " : The upper yard
men were always the coming men. They,
had most opportunities for distinguish-
. ing themselves, were the : best ', known,
and were most under the eye of the au
thorities. They developed great muscu
lar power in chest, shoulders and arms.
Their lower extremities suffered, and
one always knew the men who had been
tipper yardmen by .their tadpolelike ap
pearance when they were bathing.
But in the modern steam line oi bat
tle ship and frigate these extremely ath
letic specimens formed a very small
minority of the "ship's company, "-and
none of them could lose his turn at be
ing upper yardman so long as the ship's
reputation depended on the speed with
which the upper yards were crossed ana
sent, down. In harbor the rest of the
bluejackets had the handling of yards
and sails for exercise once or twice a
week, but at sea the use of sails for pro
pulsion grew less and less important,
and most of the work aloit was more or
an exercise and less oi a necessity.

A TURTLE,
Aa Old Sumiper fat to Sleep For a Short
: V .' Time. y ; -; "' ;,
I decided, to chloroform a large,
snapper and endeavor to learn some
thing of the actioa of the lungs and'
wnether it conld resist death in this
form. At the first application of the
saturated sponge to- the" snapper's
nose he darted' and seized it in his
strong mandibles and jerked it into
his shell.- Then I had him, and in
due time, by constant attention and
;with an outrageous expenditure of
johloroform, I completely subdued
the old fighting mossbaok. ; At last
the ludicrous sight of a thoroughly
anaesthetized snapping : turtle was
presented." It was an amusing spec
taclethis savage turtle,-lying limp
and apparently lifeless. : i I opened
its sharp, hooked jaws , and freely
handled his powerful but now nerve-!
less lees. This fellow. ancBsthe-
tized, with his flabby legs and lolling
head, looked much like the old dead '
mossbaoks which are found about
the marginsof ponds each spring. .
; Finally, after the: application of
the chloroform was discontinued for
a length of time, his seryioeable but .
ill looking . flippers began to vibrate
spasmbdioallyj very soon one of the
closed eyes was exposed and then
the other, muoh after themanner of
the opossum in emerging from one
of its voluntary lethargio spells. , In
time it perf eotly recovered and again
gave eyidenoe of its innate vicious
ness -by savagely -biting at "every
thing as before. - It is probable that
a snapping turtle could be ultimate-'
ly killed by constant application and
the expenditure of larg quantities
of chloroform, but it is not readily
done, as I convinced myself. The
reason for this is evident As soon
as the turtle comes under the influ
ence of the drug it lapses into a
, state not inaptly comparable to the
condition in which it passes the cold
months. In hibernation it probably
breathes much less frequently, and
also when under the influence of
chloroform ceases to breathe to a
large extent This the turtles and
other reptiles, can do, as they are
cold blooded and do.notrequire the
constant supply ot fresh air that is
indispensable to ibirds. and other
warm blooded creatures.
We may say: that the voluntary
act of stopping the respiration when
below the surface of the water cor
responds to the involuntary cessa
tion which ; spasmodically results
from anajsthesia. Therefore,
whether confined at the bottom of a
pool or subjected ' to the Continued
effects of an anaesthetlo, it is rea
sonable to suppose that a water tur
tle; either, the snapper or ! leather
back, could resist death for a long
time. If the snapper and soft shell
spend the colder months in the mud
and water, and this is stated as a
fact by many writers, then the crea
tures must -surely cease breathing
during their hibernation or .else
adopt an entirely different form of
respiration from the One made use
of : when on land. Interesting ex
periments might be made to ascer
tain , whether the snapping " turtle
takes its winter sleep in the mud,
dry earth ' or water. American

In the Carllst war of Spain, which was

supporters of Don Carlos, the pretender to
the Spanish crown then worn by Queen
Isabella. J -Ji-.i-' v

General Elio, who had spent 17 months
in prison by order -of Don Carlos, was a

Chicago,. August 6. The feeling in
the vicinity of the Chicago Stock Ex
change was quiet this morning, the ner
vODsneis incident to the first announce
ment of the Moere failure having ap
parently given - place to a more settled
condition. jTheeommittee appointed
by President Jamieson, of the Exchange,
held another meeting this morning at 10
o'cloek, expecting to hear some state
ment by the Moores looking towards an
adjustment of their affairs on a satisfac
tory basis. Confidence in the intrinsic
value of the securities involved and of
Diamond Match is especially felt.. Re
ports of curb sales of that stock at 170
could not be verified. That the banks
will syndicate the stock at some figure
protective of the loans is still believed to
be the most probable course after the
statement of the Moores.
The Republican State Convention of
Wisconsin was in session vesterday at
Milwaukee. There were six candidates
