PENNARBY MINE. -

Pennarby shaft is dark and deep

Va

Fight foot broad, eight hundred deep, F, Rorgh the bucket and tough the cord, Strong as the arm of Winchaman Ford. Never look down; Stick to the line! That was the saying at Pennarby mine A stranger came to Pennarby shaft; 2 Lord! to see how the miners laughed! White in the collar and stiff in the hat, With his shining boots and his silk cravat, Picking his way, - Dainty and fine, Stepping on tiptoe to Pennarby mine. Touring from London, so he said; Was it copper they dug fer, or tin, or lead? Where did they find it? How did it come? If he tried with a shovel might he get some? Stooping so much

Was bad for the spine; : And wasn't it warmish in Pennarby mine?

"Twas like two worlds that met that day, The world of work and the world of play:

| And the grimy lads from the reeking shaft | Nudged each other, and grinned and chaffed;

“Got ‘em all out!” “A cousin of mine!” So ran the banter at Pennarby mine,

And Cagenbrae Bob, the Pennarby wit, Told him the facts about the pit, How they bored the shaft tillthe brimstene smell Warned them from tapping; well, He wouldn't say what, - But they took it for a sign To dig no deeper in Pennarby mines ®* Then, leaning over and peering in, He was pointing out what he said was tin, In the ten-foot lode; a crash, a jar,

| A grasping hand and a splintered bar;

Gone in his strength, With the lips that laughed! 3 Oh, the pale faces at Pennarby shaft!

Far down on a narrow ledge They saw Kim cling to the crumbling edge, “Wait for the bucket! Hi, man, stayl That rope ain't safe; it's worn away!

He's taking his chance.

Slack out the line! Sweet Lord be with them!” cried Pennarby

Mine.

“He's got him! He hashim! Pull with a will! Thank God! He's over and breat bing e@ill. And he; Lord sakes now! what's thas? Well, Blowed if it ain't our London swellJ

If your coat is fine; Give us your hand!” cried Pennarby Mine.

é DON’T see no signs

of the tug, do you, Tem?” said the old skipper,John Buuk, rolling up to me from the companion hatchway. He was ' fresh from the cabin and was rather tip sy, with a fixed stare and a stately man- ner, though his legs wouid have framed the lower part of an .egg. His hat was tall and brushed the wrong way. He shawl reund his neck

wore a thick and was wrapped up in a long monkey

jacket, albeit we were in the dog days. In a word, Bunk was a skipper ofa type that is fast perishing off our home waters.

“No,” said I, “there’s no sigh of the tug.”

“Then bloomed,” said he, “if I don’t work her up myself! Who’s afraid? I know the ropes. Get amidships in the fair-way and keep all on, and there y’are. And mubbe the tug’ll pick us up as we

a”

“It’s all one to Tom? said I.

Our brig was the Venus of Rye, a stump topgallantmast coaster, eighty years old. We were in a big bight of the coas:, head- ing for a river which flows past a well- known town, whither we were bound. The bed of that river went in a vein through about three miles of mud till it sheared into the land and flowed into a proper looking river with banks of its own. At flood the water covered the mud but the river was buoyed, and when once you had the land on either hand and the bay of mud astern the pilotage to the town was no more than a matter of bracing the yards about till you floated into one long reach whose extremity was painted by the red wharf you moored alongside of.

We were six of a ship’s company. John Bunk was skipper; I, Tom Fish, was the mate; the others were Bill Martin, Jack Stevens, a man named Rooney, and a boy called William. On board crafts of this sort there is very little discipline, and the sailors talk to the captain as though he lived in the forecastle.

“John,” sings out Bill Martin, casting his eyes over the greasy yellow surface of the water, streaming shorewards, “are ye going to try for it without the tug?”

“Ay,’’ answered old Bunk.

“And quite right, tew. No good a-mes- sing about here all day,” says Jack Stev- ens at the tiller.

The land was flat and treeless on either hand the ziver, but it rose, about a couple miles off, curving into a front of glaring chalk, with a small, well-known town sparkling in the distance like a handful of frost in a white split. The horizon astern was broken by the moving bodies of many ships in full sail, and the sky low down was hung with the smoke of vanished steamers as though the stuff was cobwebs biack with dust.

The stream was the turn of the flood. Old Bunk went forward into the bows, and the brig flapped £rwards creaking like a basket on the small roll ofthe shal- low water. We overhung her rails, and watched for ourselves. John Bunk, try- ing to look dignified with the drink in him, stared stately ahead; sometimes sing- ing out to the helmsman to port, and then to starboard, and so we washed on, fairly hitting the river’s mouth, and stemming safely for a mile, till the flat coast was within an easy scull of our jolly boat, and you saw the spire of achurch, and a few roofs amidst a huddle of trees on the right, at that time two miles distant.

Just then the Venus took to the mud; she grounded just as a huge fat sow knuckles quietly ere stretching herself.

*‘All aback forrad!’’ sings out Bill Mar- tin with a loud silly laugh.

We were a brig of a hundred and eighty tons, and there was nothing to be done with poling; nor was kedging going to help us at this the first quarter of ebb.

“Tom,” says Johu Bunk, coming aft and speaking cheerfully, “‘there’s no call to make any worrit over this shining job. The tug’s bound to be coming along afore sundown, anyhow. See that village there?” says he, pointing. ‘“‘My brother lives in that village, ata public house of his own, called the ‘Eight Bells,’ and see ing as we're hard and fast, I shall take the boys on a visit to him and leave you and William to look arter the brig.”

“Suppose the tug should come along?” said I.

“She could do nothing with us till the flood floats us,” said be. “I shall let go the anchor for security and go ashore.”’

He talked like a reckless old fool, but was tipsy, andin notemper to reason with. The situation of the brig was safe enough as far as ocean and weather went; nothing could hurt her as she lay mud-cradled on her fat bilge. We clewed up nd let the canvas hang by its rigging an ~: «n drop- ped the anchor, afters which o! ' ‘ank and the others cleaned themselves 12 and got the boat over and went away in her, sing- ing songs, leaving me and Williams tolvok after the brig. .

It was ten o'clock in the morning, a very fine hotday. I went into the cabin for a smoke, and after lounging an hour or so whilst the boy boiled a piece of beef for our dinner I stepped on deck and found the sea was already half way out of the bay, with twenty lines of foaming ripples »yurring not a quarter of a mile off, and the channel of the river was already plain, coming out from the land and through the dry mud like a lane of water tillit met the wash of the yellow brine and melted into it. The brig lay with an uncomfortable list to starboard. When the mud should come a-dry it would be an easy jump from her decks to {t.

At half-past twelve William came be- low with my.dinner, and I told the lad to out with his knife and eat with me. We munched together, taking“it easy. There was nothing to be done on-deck, no sign of the tug, no use we could put to her, even ifshe should heave into sight, and the time hung heavy. After dinner I lay up- ona locker smoking and William sat at the table with a pipe in his mouth.

Presently I thought I heard a noise of something moving in a scratching sort of way on deck. [| listened and then heard nothing. A little later, happening to be looking at William, I heard the same noise, and that moment I fancied a kind of shadow passed over the glass of the grimy little cabin skylight.

I said to Wiiliam: “Step on deck, my lad, and see if anybody's come aboard.”

He went up and was not gone a minute when I heard him scream shockingly. The shriek was full of terror and agony and froze my blood. I rushed on deck and saw the figure of William under the paw of a large yellow tiger! I stared madly as though my senses were all gone wrong and reporting a nightmare. But the big beast turning its head spied me, swept the planks with its tail, crouched in cat-like way and was confing for me.

With aroar of terror I sprang for the main rigging and in a few breathless moments was safe in the top.

It was all sheer mud now to the very forefoot of the brig, but the half of her lay afloat in the stream of the river. I saw the marks of the beast’s paws pitting the shiny surface of ooze and sand; the trail came in a straight line from the land to the right of the village where Bunk’s brother lived to the starboard bow of the brig. The beast had sprung easily aboard. We were not ia India, nor in Africa, nor in any country where such huge yellow horrors as that flourished; therefore, on re- covering my wits and my breath whilst I looked down over the rim of the top, I guessed that the tiger had broken loose from some show or menagerie, and had made for this Jdesperate waste of land to escape the hunt that was doubtless in loud ery after him. But I coule not get any comfort into me out of the reflection that we had stranded on English instead of African or South American mud; down on deck, now crouching close beside the boy without, however, offering to touch the motionless figure, was a massive savage beast, apparently a maneater; and it was all the same to me whether it had sprung aboard off the banks of an Indian river or trotted across this breast of English slime out of a showman’s cage.

The boy lay as thongh dead, and I turn- ed sick, fearing to see the creature eat him. I was going to call, thinking he would an- swer me, then reflected if he Was not dead my voice might cause him to move, and bring the tiger upon him, and so I lay si- lent in the top, now staring down, then glaring round upon the scene of mud and at the distant blue crescent of sea for the help that was nowhere visible.

Presently the tiger got up, and, passing over the body of the lad, stepped with its supple gait into the bows. I took my chance of shouting to William, but the lad never stirred. Again and again I yelled down at him, and I saw the splendid hor- rible beast in the bows gazing at me, and still the lad remained lifeless. He was upon his face, with his arms out, as though his hands were nailed to the deck. I looked for blood, but saw none.

The most awful time that ever passed in my time now went along. The tiger roamed the deck silently, smelling at

The very blood in me was curdled, for J made sure the beast was about to eat the lad. Some- times I broke out into the noisiest roarings and screaming my pipes could set yp in

the hope of driving the brute overboard.

Between five and six o’clock in the even- ing the tide had made so as to cover the mud, and I saw the brig’s boat approach- ing. Those who pulled flourished their oars drunkenly. The boat came to a stand when within easy bailing distance, as though old Bunk was taking a look at me asIsat in the top. and was wondering what I did there.

I roared out: “For God’s sake mind how you come aboard! There’s been a bloom- ing tiger in this brig since noon!”’

“A what?” yelled Bunk, and the seamen pulled a little closer in.

It was still brqad flaming daylight, and the sun hung like a huge blood red target over the crimson sea.

“A what?” shrieked Bunk.

“A tiger! A blooming tiger!” 1 bel- lowed, pointing to the brwe that lay crouched on the forecastle hidden from the boat’s crew.

“Drunk agais, Tom? or {fs it sunstroke this time?’ sung out old Bunk, standing up in the boat and lurching to the rocking of her.

“It’s killed William!” i yelled.

When I said this the beast, attracted by the noise of voices oves the side, got ap

and looked over the bulwark rail at the men, and old Bunk instantly sawit. He stared for a moment or two as though he had been blasted by a stroke of lightning. The other three fellows then saw the beast, and if there was any drink in their heads the fumes of it flew ont at that sight, and left them sober men. Their postures were full of wild surprise and terror whilst they gazed. Old Bunk roared:

“Has he killed the boy, d’yersay?”

“He lies there dead,”’ cried 1, pointing. “He hasn’t moved since I first saw him.”

“Has he been eating of him?’

“No?

“We must go ashore for help,” sung out Jack Stevens.

“For God’s sake don’t leave me up here!” I cried.

“Tom,” shouted Bunk, “there’s only wan thing to dew; there’s an old gun in my cabin, and yer’ll find a powder flask and ball in the locker. We must keep that tiger a-watching us over the bow whilst you run below and shut the hatch. By lifting the lid you'll be able te shoot him through the skylight. Come you down now as far as you durst whilst we fixes the attention of the brute upon our- selves.’*

I at once dropped into the rigging, where l stretched and played my legs a bit. They were as stiff as handspikes after that long spellin the maintop. I descended as low down as the sheerpole, breathlessly watch- ing. They pulled the boat under the bow, and Bill Martin with lifted oar made as though spearing at the brute’s head. It opened its huge mouth -and showed its immense claws upon the rail; old Bunk hissed and snapped at it, then roared out to me:

“Now's your time, Tom,” whilst I heard Jack Stevens sing out:

“Back astern, The fired cat’s going to jump.”

With the nimbleness of terror I dropped to the deck, and passed like a shadow to the hatch, unnoticed by the beast. Ina moment I closed the companion doors,then entering Bunk’s cabin found the gun and ammunition. I loaded the piece, and get- ting on to the cabin table, put my head into the skylight and bawled out to let the others know I was going to shoot. My voice attracted the tiger; it turned, and

I FIRED THROUGH THE SKYLIGHT. with swaying tail came with velvet tread, crouching inaspringing posture. I leveled the gun, steadying the barrel and taking a cool, deliberate aim—for I was safe!—fired, and the instant I had fired, without paus- ing to see what had happened, I loaded again; but before I could present the piece for a second shot the beast, who was now on the side of this boy, lurched and fell.

I fired a second shot into it, and then a third and a fourth, and now shouting to let the men know the brute was wounded and dying, I ran on deck, and putting the Muzzle of the gun to the creature’s glaz- tng eye, fired, and this did its business, for just one spasm ran through it, and then the terrible, muscular bulk lay motion- less.

The men came scrambling aboard. We turned the boy over and took him below. Shortly afterwards the tug hove in sight and we let the beast lie whilst we got our anchor and manceuvered with the tow pre. T am sorry to say the boy was dead.

n our arrival a doctor came and looked at him, anda crowd tumbled aboard to view the beast. There was not a scratch on the lad; the tiger had never touched him; the doctor said he had died of syn- cope caused by fright.

The owner of the tiger threatened old Bunk with the law, and asked for a hun- dred guineas. Bunk started William’s mother upon him for compensation for the loss of her boy, and shortly afterwards the showman went broke.

Mr. Gladstone's Memory.

Another anecdote to illustrate Mr. Glad- stone’s strength of memory. Sir H. Owen took to him on a comparatively recent oc- casion an important return containing a mass of figures. Mr. Gladstone looked through the return as he ate breakfast and then handed it back to@ir H. Owen, who took it away with him. In the House of Commons on that day Mr. Gladstone dealt with the figures as if the written re- turns were before his eyes. Sir H. Owen remarked that Mr. Gladstone was the only minister that ever gave him back such a paper.— Westminster Gazette.

Made the Sailors Swear,

Several hundred cases of genuine sauer- kraut broke loose in the hold of the Brit- ish steamship Westhall while bound from Hamburg to Philadelphia, and the con tents ran out among the cargo, producing a smell that pervaded everything, and was almost intolerable. The English sailors swore like pirates over this new affliction forced upon them, but there was no relief uutil the steamship reached this port. The responsibility for the loss has been settled by putting iton the shippers, because of
