By OHABLES B. LEWIS M. QUAD'. [Copyright. 1W4. by Charles B. la-wis.] When I sailod out of the port of Philailolphin in the American bark Wanderer, Captain DnfT, I simply knew that t she was bonntl to San Francisco with a (general cargo, and that I had signed articles for I he round trip. If a saihrr learns anything alamt a craft, her owners or officers before he has shipped and she is ready to sail, it is by accident. The fact of (in - matter is he has no preferences. He must find a ship, and he takes the first one offered. Six men of ns were sent aboard the Wanderer by a shipping agent just an hour before she was r< ady to tow out.

“so WILL YOU BE LEFT!” craft commanded by satan himself with five feet of water in her hold. There was a crew of 38 men all told, and I did not get sight of the captain until the two watches were chosen just before supper. In dividing the men into watches the captain and tirst mate select alternately, although the captain stands no watch, and his men go to the second mate. It is usual for the captain to make a short speech to the men on this occasion. If men ashore were going to work for a contractor, nothing of the sort would lie expected, but sailors look for it and would think it ominous if omitted. On this occasion Captain Duff, who was a short, thickset and brutal looking man, shoved his hands deep into his pockets, glared around him like a hungry wolf and growled ont: ‘‘A lovely looking lot of swabs yon are to put a craft around the Horn in bad weather! They have raked the glitters to give me a crew, and maybe you think you are going on a pleasure trip. 1 want to say to you jight on the start that ‘jump’ is the word, and if there is any soldiering somebody will get hurt. If there’s a skulker among you, he’d better jump overboard now. Look at the crowd of you! A more hangdog gang of loafers I never set eyes on, and 1 wonder how they came to let you out of jail. I'll work you up to it. however! You are on a real ship and under a real sea captain now, and 1 tell you 1T1 make things
lively for you!”
As a matter of fact, he had had his pick of men, and a better crew could not have been found, and his bitter words put some of the men on edge. “What the captain says the mates will swear to,” is an old saying at sea. In other words, they take their cue from him. Their aim is to secure Ids good will and deserve his commendation. If he is “down” on the crew, they are abusive and tyrannical. Neither of the mates had sailed with Captain Duff before. We saw by their demeanor that his speech hud given them their cue, and that we should have a hard time of it, but the subject was not discussed to any extent. Tyranny and brutality at sea are the rule and not the exception. From the time we left the c .pes till we were well down to the Horn there was no let up on the part of the mates, and now and then Captain D iff encouraged them to greater exertions. No man, no matter how smart and willing he was, escaped the kicks and cuffs so lilierally bestowed, and several were severely injured by blows from belaying pins. The result of this persistent abuse was to put the whole crew in a state of
' [ sulks, and every man was resolved to do

up, stnggcrert to the rail, anrt holding fast with one hand he jaunted with the other to the captain and said: “As yon have left those men to hunger ami thirst and die, so will you be left!” He let go his hold and staggered forward, followed by the curses of the captain and mates, but he had scarcely reached us when he fell down and died. Tin' blow had crushed in his skull, and that he had rallied from it and spoken the words he did was looked ujxm as almost miraculous. For an hour or two after Tallman's death the officers held aloof, making a pretense that it was no concern of theirs, hut after awhile the captain himself came forward and gave orders about the preparation and the burial and made excuses that he was in bad temjier and struck harder than he intended to. He furthermore declared that he un tierstood Tallman to be finding fault with the ship’s provisions, and he was much put out when we refused to attach our signatures to a statement in the logbook which would have exonerated him ashore. After the corpse of the murdered sailor had been committed to the deepr. change was noticed in the demeanor of the officers. We were bound for an American port, and one where the daily newsjMipers would be apt to hear of the heartless act of leaving a shipwrecked crew in midocean, followed by a brutal murder, and it was deemed politic to “go soft” on the crew. The mates continued to bully and curse, hut there were no further cases of j)ersonal violence. In the course of a week, such is sailor nature, two or three men began to make excuses for the murder and declare the captain was not a bad fellow. We had rounded ('ape Horn and were bearing up for the north when we met the American whaler James Brady. We knew nothing about our captain and first mate and were surprised to learn that Captain Duff’s brother was captain of the whaler, and that the mate had acquaintances among her crew. There were a very light breeze and a smooth sea, and as soon ns the two captains recognized each other’s craft both were brought to the wind, and our commander was rowed aboard of the whaler for a visit. In about an hour, the breeze having almost died away and the day being clear, the boat returned for the mate. This left the bark in charge of the second mate, who was, however, a thoroughly competent man. It was just after dinner the mate left us, and at 8 o’clock in the afternoon we saw a squall gathering down in the southeast. The same thing was seen from the whaler at the same time, and while both crews were taking in sail and making all snug aloft our captain and mate started to return. The four sailors who had gone with the boat had been allowed to board the whaler and visit with her crew, and in honor of the occasion a bottle of Chilian whisky had been produced. When called away, they were half seas over with the liquor. Captain Duff quickly discovered their condition and flew into a temper. He and the mate were in the boat, and as the first man swung himself down he received a blow which knocked him overboard. A rope was thrown him from the ship, but seeing his fate the other three hung back. It was just at this moment that the squall burst. Both ships were laid on their beam ends, and their crews had enough to do to hang on, and it therefore followed that the l)oat with the captain and mate in it went adrift without any one giving
as little work as possible. There was plenty of talk, but no talk of mutiny. You must drive a sailor to the dead line before ho will resort to that. One morning just after breakfast, while the bark was slipping along under a light breeze, a wreck was sighted dead ahead. When we got up with her, we found her to be the English brig Unicorn, which had been dismasted and waterlogged in a squall two days before. Her captain and seven men were on board, while several I hands had been swept away. We gut

tance. The weather wits fine, and there was no sea on, and every man of us, of course, expected a boat would he lowered and the unfortunate seamen trans-
ferred to our decks.
What motivt guided Captain Duff in his barbarous course 1 never knew, bnt after lying by the wreck for it quarter of an hour he suddenly ordered the yards to be swung and the Wanderer to resume her course. When the unfortunates witnessed the move, they cried out in chorus in a way to touch the heart, but Captain Duff and his mates only laughed at them. To refuse to tnke those jxxir fellows off was a crime as horrible as murder, for they were not only in jieril, but suffering hunger and thirst as well Actuated by the dictates of common humanity, we urged a smart young sailor named Tallman to go aft and say to the captain that we would cheerfully take a short allowance of food and water if he would stand back for the men. All of us went with him as fur as the mainmast. ('nptain Duff and Ixith mates wenon deck, and the instant the captain un-

no tault of ours. A second squall, which we did not feel at all, caught her and carried her to the west, and the strong breeze which followed the squall kept her running in that direction. Eleven days after the boat went adrift she was picked up in midocean by an English merchantman named the Derby. The mate had been dead for two days, and for 11 day* Captain Duff had not had a morsel of food or a drop of water. I afterward fell in with the mate of the Derby, and he relatixl the horrible jmrticulars. They were running their course one night when they heard singing and laughing from the open sea The watch an dtx-k were greatly frightened, but when the captain was called he put the ship about, final rockets and hung out lanterns, and by and by the boat was found. Cajitain Duff was a living skeleton, and the skin on his face and hands was almost black. His lips were swollen and cracked, his tongue tilled his month, and the sounds he uttered reminded the men of the chatter of apes disturbed at night. His eyes blazed so fiercely that they believed him insane, but it turned j out that he was still iu his right mind. : It was horrible enough to think of those long days and nights of suffering, hut | there was something worse to come. So great was the man’s vitality that ! he clambered aboard of the ship without assistance, and it was only fair to be- ! lieve that food and rest would soon bring him around all right. But he could touch neither water nor food. When it was placed to his mouth, he startixl back in horror, and when his parched lips were wet with water he went into convulsions and gasped as if dying. For two days and nights after being picked up he went on starving imd thirsting and growing to look more and more like a wild beast. And yet, strange as it may seem, he not only had his senses, hut he sat down in the cabin and wrote out his adventures in a jilain, straightforward way. He told of the waterlogged shi]>—the whaler—of his killing Tallman, of everything I have related to you in this Ain - . He even made a will which waJ subsequently probated in Pennsylvania. His condition was one to arouse the feeling of j)ity in every breast, hut nothing could be done for him, and on the morning of the third day he began uttering wild shrieks and soon fell down and died. It was three years later that I learned of the fate of the crew he so cruelly left behind on the wreck. They were, I am glad to say, taken off by a French steamer next day nfld carried safely into port. Every man of them had sworn to kill Captain Duff on sight for his heartless desertion, but retribution had ovtrtaken him long before they were safely landed. A year ago, in the shipping news of a New York paper. I found a three line item to the effect that the James Brady, whaler, had arrived at Honolulu, and that she reported the loss of Captain Duff at sea. Was he like our Captain Duff, and was that also a ease of retribution? The sailor lias no friends at sea and only enemies ashore, bnt now and then at long intervals something hnpjiens to make him almost believe that he is not entirely forsaken by (rod and man.

Mnemonics, or the art of rendering artificial aid to the memory by associating in the minds things difficult to remember with those which are easy of recollection, is of very ancient origin. It is said to have originated with the Egyptians, bnt the first jierson to reduce it to a system was, according to Cicero, the jrnct Simonides, who lived 500 years B. C. His plan is known ns the topical or locality plan and was in substance as follows: Choose a large house, with a number of differently furnished apartments in it. Impress ujton the mind carefully all that is noticeable in the house, so that the mind can readily go over all its parts. Then place a series of ideas in the house—the first in the hall, the next in the sitting room, and so on with the rest. Now, when one wishes to recall these ideas in their projier succession, commence going through the house, and the idea placed in each dejmrtmeut will be found to readily recur to the mind in connection with it. It is relatixl that the mnemonic plan was first suggested to the jxx't by a tragic occurrence. Having Ix-en called from a banquet just before the roof of the house fell and crushed all the rest of the company, he found on returning that the bodies were

THE idea:
THE BOAT WAS PICKED UP IN MIDOCEAK. them a thought. For half an hour then* were ruin and wind and darkness. Then tho sky cleared over a tumbling sea, and we got a steady breeze from the south. The mate of the whaler brought our four men off to us, and it was planned that the two shijis should stand to the north and west in search of the small Ixiat, which it was hoped would be picked uj) within an hour. Indeed her going iulrift with the squall was looked on as a joke, and the four sailors, who were sobered up by the time they reached us, were the victims of much badinage. Men were sent aloft to look ont for the Ixiat, and the shijis headed to the northeast in the wake of the squall. We had a clear sky, and the seas soon went down, and how it came about that we overlooked the Ixiat I can't understand. She had rnn before the squall into the northeast and was not above 10 miles away when we lx'gun the search. If the Wanderer had been alone, it might have been said that the lookout saw the boat and gave no sign, thus securing revenge for the abuse they had received, hut the whaler had three men aloft, and they saw nothing. The dying sailor hud jrrophesied that Captain Duff would be left to suffer hunger and thirst as he had left the jxxir fellows on the wrix-k, and when we had searched the ix'ean for two days and nights and found no trace of the boat we said that Tallman’s jirophecy was bound to come true. Had the boat been ujiset in the squall we must have found her floating, as we found two of the oars, for we had flue days and luixmlight nights for the search. Our failure to find her. as we afterward learned, was
