Becalmed (lvo ilnyg within hull of a fleet iof sea roblmrs and without no much as a wcnin except ono jil tol on board was tho plight or the full rigged ship Hadjah, on which 1 wsa first mate some yearn hack," raid Henry Wnlllorf, now first ofTl ecr of the German Bteamnhlp T,lch tpnfrls, ns ho watrhpd tho bamboo bring discharged from his vphbpI. We had left Cardiff, England, Pot Hong Kong, with roal, by way ol Gape Horn and the Southern Pa cific. Moth the captain anti I nan heard ninny tales of the sea robbers of Lord North Island who rame to railing vessels and steamers as trad ers, but who are the b'oodthlrstlest eea pirates that ever climbed aboard a ship. It was high noon on New Yearn pny, thirteen years ago, when the Karijah was In south latitude ftvo decrees eaRt longitude 13S Wn were thon due east of the Philip' pines and slightly north by west of the Caroline group. We were scud ding along under a fair bree.p when I noticed a vessel bearing down on us. I called to the captain that I did mt like the looks of the bout and suggested sea robbers. The skipper, who had tho gout and u hose avoirdupois did not permit him making rapid headway In any direction, looked troubled. As I looked again within ten minutes xif the time when I had noticed the first craft there were thirteen boats apparently making for us. "I talked to the crew, twenty In all. most of whom were for going below and barricading themselves I told tneru tnnt we liuiln t any weapons except my pistol aboard ship and that every man might have to fight it out. I fold them that If any one balked nt fighting the sea robbers I would tsboot him on the spot. -: SIGHTING THE SKA UOBBEItS. Then I ordered the men to gather the hirgcst lumps of coal they coulj get out of the hold and to place a pod supply of the lumps all along the rail and at. the bow and t!:e litem of the Rud.lah. I Intended that we would repel boarders with the coal if that was the only thing we could do, and I determined that we would fight the black pirates off to the last ditch. "Through the glasses we counted at least twenty dark skinned bandits in each boat, and I knew we were In for it if they ever got to us. Luckily we were to windward of the crew of cutthroats and we were hoping that we could maintain the distance be tween them and ourselves when sud denly tho breeze died out and we were becalmed. The calm came Just as we lost sight of the nearest of the pirate' boats, and as darkness ti't in wo found that the tsea robbers apparently had also been becalmed. "For five mortal days and nights we stayed there, not moving an inch. Tie sea robbers, P irtunnlely, did nut know of our plight, since they coi'Ul not see us so they did not pad cl'e our way, in which case they woiild have had us completely tt the'r mercy. Win the captain in a state of col apse and the crew on the verso of a crazy, Fense'ews niitliiy. I hnd a hard time maintaining dlsclpl.no on board the Itudja.i. The vR:i ended on the night of tho fifth day. when a breeze sprung up and by morning we had put many ml!es between us en Lord North Island , "I left the Itadjah on our return 'o Kurope and got married Two nontha after I left her in the fail of tho same year, the ship turned turtle during a gale two davs out from Cardiff on un another voyage to Hong Kong and all but two of her crew, two sailors, were lost.

Whllo cruising In the South Spur the whali-r Kksox on November 20, 1820, wna furloiiHly nttaoki'tl hy a cow Hperm wiiiilo Kiipposod to have been the moth er of a fair which had Just been hr.r I'oniind. The whale had not been wounded herself and her nttark was very determined. At her fln-t rush Rlif n-.iwsi'd tinder the Essex nnd car ried away a great length of her false heel: then coming to the Hurface a ..viRlderable distance away nho ar'Petu ed to tako bearings ancl deliberately charged the vessel again, ra-iitnin-r her with such violence that ciie Movh l-i Hit; bows, while the ship rolled so heavily that the captain thousht she) inupt be dismasted. The case Is i'i"ra oralile becausn the crew had to aban don the vessel, and one boat was nev er heard of again. , A more singular Instance of a whnii attacking a vessel occurred In IS'.i.i, the singularity lies in the fact that 111 tile case or tho Haiula Isle tii" at tack was entirely unprovoked. Th'i vessel, a brigantfne of 2fi0 tons, wj .4 on her way to Sydney with a car;v f timber. On August 24, ah. nit noop, a couple of sperm whales rose very closo to the vessel, and while the crew watched t.'iem "sporting " acrosj her bows the pair suddenly slewed around nnd came straight for her. Om thought better of it nnd dived below tlie Manila Isle, the other struck her fair and square on the beam, crushing In her timbers. Having rammed thu fchlp In this resolute fashion It sh.vn'd tiT terribly damaged about tho he;d. tin presently sank tall first. Fortunately tliero were some j.ncU ligos of rawhides on b-anl and the crew were able to keep the vorrel afioat with the pumps until a rnu';'i ai-d ready eolll.-!e!i mat had been f:u.'.i!or.tl out of these and drawn ov- tr tlio leak. niondew Take the Ik'st IMet tires. "Blonde women havo their photo graphs taken Just about twleo as of ten in the long run B3 brunettes," j remarked a photographer in the Cleveland Daln Dealer. Tho rea- i son Is easy; blondes takes better pic tures than brunettes. The lighting ; effects are far better when tho sub- I Ject is a blonde. A blonde girl may get a photo graph that will flatter her, where one of a brunette taken under the same j conditions will not even do her Jus tice." Marriage. Arc IncreiLseil It Is generally admitted that the marriage age of woman had ad-! vanced considerably of recent years. Many a bride hag long left girlhood , behind her before she exchanged her ' vows at the altar, and there seem 1 to be few young men nowadays who ; care to assume the responsibilities of married life until they are in ths . financial position usually associated ' with middle age.

Their Orlg'ii t'ntinl'y Tonnec'ed With Plnce of Their Ilirh. In connection with the Insistently clinging chflv;"((r of velvet it iwr.y bo noted that Cue f tuff lakes Its name from the Itnllan "Veiuto," sliaggy, offering In this respect a parallel with "satin," which comes from the Latin "seta," a bristle. As n gener al rule It Is pretty safe to guess that the name of a dress material comes from some place. Ilesldes such ob vious cases as "astrakan," "cash mere," and "tweed," there are "fus tian" (tho humble analogue of vel vet), from Fustatt, (Cairo); "Mus lin" from Mosul In Mesopotomla; "damask" from Damascus, and "cam bric" from Cambria, while "millin ery" Itself. Is from Milan. The case of silk Is a curious one. It is "serl cum," the stuff obtained from the Seres or Chinese; but these people neem to have been named In ancient Greek after the Chinese word for silkworm. London Chronicle. Tea Joviih in Well Fffccts. One can make very smart house gowns without too great nn expendi ture of money, and copy the most exclusive models at that, if time and patience are given to the task, for, alas, they require much handwork. Two lovely models are shown, the uppermost being In chiffon which can be replaced by silk mull. A delicate shade of cream, blue laven dar or pink would be pretty. The skirt Is formed of alternating panels of German Varenclennes insertion and mull, the mull being bordered with a narrow band of embroidery. At the bottom there Is a ruffle made after the game Idea, but with a head ing of plain tucked mull. The de TEA GOWNS IN RICH EFFECTS, sign is empire, tho corsage being formed of tucked mull (Trimmed with folds of the same material Inset with bands of embroidery. At the bottom there Is a ruffle, made from the same Idea, but with a heading of plain tucked mull. The design is Empire, the corsage being formed of tucked mull trimmed with folds or tho same material inset with bands of embroidery while the sleeves are formed entirely of Val ruffles. The second model is a semi-fitting princess, wrlnkleless, yet allowing the utmost freedom of movement. It Is boned to keep Its shape since the model does not follow the lines of the figure snugly. The trim mings are of Valenciennes Insertion and edging, while the dainty coat is of white mull appllqued with pink figures cut out of cretonne and stitched upon the mull with button hole embroidery. The coat is bor dered with lace. Tho loose sleeves like the Bhoulders are trimmed with bands of heavy, though not expen sive cream colored lace. They hang loosely over the arm to the elbows where they are finished with frills of Valenciennes. To Make Wall FajM-r Stick. Paper on newly plastered walls is not apt to stick, even If the walls are considered to be dry. To obviate this difficulty wash down the walls with the following preparation: Half a pound of glue dissolved In a gallon of boiling water, to which add enough paste to make the mixture of the consistency of cream. The paste is mado after this receipt: To two quarts of flour add enough warm wa ter to muko a thin paste. Add boil ing water till tho Hour rooks and thickens. l4 AWZK 'Ttfi .Ifi-VTfc ".; txsryve&z )w 1 . , .:-t-1 muni si rW4mi,jiiiii:r' x 4 MiklZPV Take ONE i; x ' '..rj BIG OFFER To All Our Subscribers The Great AMERICAN FARMER Indianapolis, Indiana.
