During the year 1S0S no less than three trading vessels fitted out at Sina pore, for traffic in the .lava Sea mysteri ously di-appe-ared, and no trace of them could be discovered. Two more .were added to the list early in lSf'.,and about July 1 it was whispered around that a nest of pirates had been eliscovered on an island olf the north coast of Java. If the hews was true the chieftain of the an;r must be a bold fellow indeed, and needed looking after at once. The merchants at Singapore were talk ing of lifting out a ship to investigate when H. M. cruiser The Shark arrived. She w.;s o ie of the bld-fashiouel ten- un ln'iqs once so numerous, and at that time was euited in a survey of the south coast of liorneo, or about to be. As I was one of her crew lean relate what happened during the next two weeks tirstdianded. It seemed that the story of the pirate was accepted as a fact, for we over hauled our armament, took in a lot of ammunition and strengthened our crew by fourteen men before sailing. These men were drafted out of a crew belonsf intU) a man-of-war which had been wit eked on th Malay coast, and all we'teold hand-:. The e'aotain trot his bearings from .-ome so.frce unknown to us, ami when we left Singapore the brig was headed to t:.c east. We jogged alone; down tlu coast of Sumatra for a week without finding, any unusual inci dent, and though we spok a score ef e ralts none1 of them h.'.d any information about the pirate. The ere .v ha I begun to ridicule the idea when something oc curred to open our eyes very wide. One morning, about an hour after day light; we came up with a Dutch trader, which was taking care of herself. All her sails had been cut away, lopes were living in every eiircction and she was so low in the w.it u that we wondered why sho didn't go . down. When a boat pulled olf to her it was to find the cap tain mortally wounded aud his wife aud two sailors still and elead aud horribly mutilated on the deck beside him. We 'Ot him oil, but had no time to give the bodies burial before the little craft went elown. Theciptain was a man about forty years of age, ami though hardly alive when we found him he rallied enough to tell his story. The trader had been trafficking along the Java coast and had finally complete 1 his cargo and headed for Singapore, dust at sunset on the previous eeninghe had been overhaul'-1 by a native craft can r ing about for ty men. lie was thea about ten miles off the coast and about live miles south of ah island known as "(.Queen's Bower." lit had no suspicion whatever of the natives, and the first thing he knew they b varJb'd his craft and began to cut and slash. When they had finished the crew they began to plunder and strip the vesstd, and were with her until midnight. Before leaving they bored her full of holes, and we had reached her just in time to rescue the captain The first craft was joined by two others later on, and the three car ried at least a hundred elespcrate fellows. j The captain heard and understood euough j to satisfy him that they were an organ ized gang of pirates aud that they were also well equipped for their bloody busi ness. ihe island, mentioned was not over twenty miles away, aud as the Java Sea was aud is a great highway, it did not seem possible that mtn would take such IIILLSBORO, N. C. SATURDAY, AUGUST 1, 1891. a risk as those pirates had. The trader said that no .less than three friendly sails were insight when he was attacked, but all too far away to signal, even if he had been warned in time to elo some thing. ; Owing to the shoals surround ing the islau I oar craft could not ap proach near enough to use her guns and shell the fellows out, and we were not strong enough to land from our boats and deal with them. The sight of an armed vessd nosing around would put pirates on tiieir guard, an I so it was re- solvtd to play them a Yankee trick. We ran into a bav on the- coasi and et to work. You are probably awar.i of the fact that an English man-of-war, no nutte r how large or how small, is a pattern of neatness ami regulation, an I tin; cut of her saih will alone establish her iden tity while her hull is yet below the water line. We had, therefcre, to un do and overhaul a great de tl. . We put everything in seeming confusion aloft, disguised her hull as much as possible, and when we left the bay The Shark had the look of a merchantman which nau oeen inro i-u a typhoon an i w.i? too short-handed to make lvoiir-. To Hutch captain die-J on the d ty after .wi: found.him, and his list words w;-re a prayer that we might fall in with an 1 punish the pirates. It was just at elaylight that we ap , peared off the north coast of the island aud anchored on . a bank about thre miles from the beach. Men won' sent aloft as if engaged in repairs, a boat waj got elown as if to work on the hull, and the bulk of the crew remained in hiding below. No doubt the fellows ashore had a lookout in some trees, and provided with a good glass he could see every thing going on aboard. It was hardly sunrise when a small native craft with four men in her came out to within pistol shot of us to make an investigation. Our captain hailed them and tii-y replied with gestures of signify that thev would return to the shore for help. They evidently took us for what we pretended to be, and we were piped to breakfast feeling that our ruse would succeed. About eight o'clock, with the wind breezing up lively, three native sail-craft put eut for us. A man aloft with a glass reported that each craft was crowded with natives, anil it was now our plan to weigh anchor aud make a little sail ami pretend to be standing away from them as if alarmed. The object was to draw them as far away from shore as possible, and we had added a male or more to the elistance when the foremost boat came witnin hail. She hadn't a gun of any fort in sight, but sho had forty-eight desperatedooking villains in plain view. v aud -vcry one of them had n cutlass and pistol. While her captain was hailing us in a language no one could understand, she was slowly edging along down upou our starboard qua'rter. At the same time a second craft was elrawing ahead on the port side, and the third kept in emr wake. Only seven or eight men were in sight on our decks, and the natives seemed to have no suspicions of a trick. The breeze was a little bit too strong for their manoeuvring at first, but after we were about six miles otf shore the two sudden ly close! in to board us: Our captain had been closely watching them and waiting for this move, and of a sudden the drum beat to quarters and our decks were alive with men. I was captain of No. '.I guu crew and had the honor of firiugthe first shot; It was a solid ball, and it struck the craft on h-r port bow and went e'ean through her and dropped into the sea beyond. Tois ooeued the fight; the natives instantly reiiizgl thit they had caught a Tartar, an l thy sr.v , too, that their only means of escipe lay, ia capturing the ship. Therefore, in stead of running away, as we ha 1 broke i for, each Craft bore down on ustobvird. They were handle 1 as easily a? an Indian mauo-uvres a canoe, and it wasn't five minutes after the first gnu was fired ere they were on our vpiarters iik -j wolves seeking to hamstring a deer. I fired another solid shot and :hea loaded with grape, and this last charge was fired rh'ht into a mass of natives waiting to clambjr up the side. The gun Steit to me fireda solid shot, which tore through her bottom, and two minutes later she foanviered right along side of us. The second rtraft got near enough to grapple, but the irons were thrown oil, and two guns played solid shot into her hull un til she went down stern foremost, leav iag thirty niea straggling. ia the wave The third craft had forge 1 ahead, sailing five feet to our one, anl would have boardtd us at the bo;v bat for tho Men-destruction of the others. Tiieir fe frightened her eff, but she had J r-urMy laid her hea l for the island than 'twas brought aiounl as if the crew hod made some desperate resolve. Now oceured a curious thing; She had about thirty men on board, and she came down us with every one of them shouting ii'id screaming and tried to lay us aboard. could have sunk her with one ua etn, or we could have picked off the v. iole crew with our muskets before they h.el crossed the rail. Word was passed tc gjye her a full broadside at the word, aael when the "smoke cleared away she j was not to be seen. There were over t'-sreuty of the pirates banging to tha I wreckage around us, however, and aboat was lowered to pick them up. You caa judge of their desperation when , I tell you tint every one of them fought like a tiger against being picked up, aud that we got only live out of the lot. The others wr had to kill as they tloated about vith the sharks suapping at them. Two of the five leaped out of the boat after being palled in and were, seen' no more, and' the others gave us so much trouble that the captain swung them up to the yard arm. Thus not one single man of tht hundred or more who came out to attack us escaped -wit a his life. I was in one of the two boats afterwards sent asliore to see what sort of a lair tha pirates had made for the.r.se'.vcv The only hutaan brings ashore were an old native woman, a one armed Japanese, and a white boy about fourteen years of age. This boy was off au English trader, cap tured the year before, and had been held prisoners ever since. He said thev Were 107 men in the gang, and we fouuel enough plunder on the island to load our ship. Tln'y had captured about a dozen different vessels, large and small, and ia every case had plundered and sunk them. They did not always kill ail the crew. Soon after the bov was captured the? brought in an Amencau sailor oil a 3pice trader. The boy knew htm only by the name of William, but remembered that his home was in Boston. It turned out that they had spared his life to make use ef him as a blacksmith, but when they found that he hael no Knowledge of that weirk he was put to eleath. By order e)f the chief he was hung in chains on a tree about a quarter of a mile away, and was eleven tlays in dying. The boy went with us and showed us his bonnes still hanging. The bnc-armeel man ami the old wo man, assisted by the boy, were the cooks for the gang. They at first seemed very much alarmed, and protested their innocence of any complicity ih the crimes of the pirates, but when they came to understand that all the villains had met their fate, and that we had come ashore to clear the island of its last bale of plunder, they suddenly ran into a rude store house, blocked up the doorway with boxes, and and opened fire on us with pistols. We had two men wounded before we could dislodge them, and they wre then nanged to the same limb and their bodies Jeft to the birds. What plunder we could iobring off we Imrned on the island, and befre leaving we set tke forest on fire in a dozen places, and the fames did not ilie out until the whole length and breadth had been swept clean of vegetation. .W-7 York b'r7?. - Hamlet as, M-3 wa9. ' Aiii'tth, as it was formally written, was a Prince of Jutland. Media-val writers, however, differ its to the exact century in whieh he lived. The best authority on this subject, perhaps, ia S lAO-iirammasievs, the Danish historian, according to whom Amleth lived about "j 2fi) B. C. He was a son of Horvendii, himself a Prince of Jutland, and eruiha. a daughter of I lie King of what is now Denmark. Amh th's father was murdered bv his own brother, Fenzo, who sou married the wife of his victim. Amleth w.mld have been murdered by his uncle at the time of Horvendii's eleath at his brother's hand, but for the fact that he' feigned madness. Soon after his mother's marriage Amleth killed hi? father's munlerer. Various stories arc told concerning the final end of Amleth, none of which are authentic, a -cording to modern investigators. A French ''History of Hamlet'' was circulated in England about the begin -ring of the Sixteenth Century, and is supposed to be the foundation o! the famous Shakespearean play. . Lj'-u Ilijjullic.

After the New War ea-rem oui'es the Imperial 'ourt lived in retirement, b:-etus.- of the confinement and eemvahieric" of the Kmpress. Thus the L np-roi found leisure for hunting, which is hi" favorite pleasure. The best sport was found at Konigsw usterhauseu, n small pl-nv m the mielst of large pine forests, when' wild boars abound. He're the Emperor hunted for two days, staying the night at a small hunting lodge wicre his fore fathers used to remtin during hunting time. The bcarft are driven together by huu- drd ef drivers, under the guidance of the imperial gamekeepers, and the Em peror and his guests stan i at appointed places, and when the animals ruh past have the be-st opportunity i shoot. Iu seven days ''JS animals wci-- killed, some of great size, and adoni-hing weight. The Emperor shoots very well with a guu or ritle, aud has been known to kill IJO'J head of game in one day. On such hunting expeditions the Em peror always wears forest uniform, elark gray cloth, with grteu fastening and silver t ejrds, together with a felt hat. This unilorm is only aoowed by imperial permission, and is permitted, for iu-stane-e, to royal rela'iems or personal friends of t he- Emp-ror who are good .sportsmen. All the game that has been killed is laid out in rows and the Ihn- peror and his guests look them ore-r, ind a bugle sounds the- halloo.
