the country rather than from the bad
boys of the city. -Why should the navy
be confined to sea-ports of the cuun

ing officers could be moved from place
to place, advertising thoroughly in ad
vance, and remain only a few weeks
in each town. The personnel needed
could be restricted to three or four
persons, and the expenses of each party
would be small. When a dozen boys

a Clever Female Pirate.
Several men tookmassagejin a Chinese
coasting vessel. During the journey a
young "widow ' professed that she had
been robbed. A search was instituted. !
! Then she professed to discover the
: jewel in her "box." As a mild sort of
penance for the trouble she had ooea
sioned, one of the men suggested that
the lady should make tea and serve it
to all on board. It was thought to be
great fun. She reluctantly consented.
Soon after, nearly all on board fell into
! a profound slumber. The mysterious
j men were pirates, and the widow a

vessel they disappeared in boats, leav- i
