We woro between the Azores and Ma deira, bound for a port in tho West In dies, in tho American ship Ben Joyce, when a curious thing happonod ono morning about nn hour before daylight. Tho wind had died away soon after mid night, and by 2 o'clock the sea was like a mill pODd. Tho ship was swinging her head to every point of the oompass, and with tho exception of the lookout man the watch on deck wcro catching 40 winks of sleep. I was that lookout man. It is required on all vessels at sea that the man on tho bows shall bo as wido awake in a calm as when the craft is moving, and I was digging my oyca and fighting away sleep when a curious Bound from over tho bows caught my ear. It was a dark night, with not a star visible, and I could not see beyond the end of the jib boom. As I listened to the noises the only thing I could compare it to was tho noses of sharks bumping against a small boat. It would navo been ridiculous to call to the mate and give him any such explanation, but I finally called his attention to the curi ous noises and left tho cause to his own perception. "There's a raf t or boat out there," he said after a moment, "aud the noise may bo made by oars. I'll burn a port fire." Tho port fire lighted up the sea for 100 feet around, and the first thing we saw was a ship's boat within 40 feet of us on the port bow. In the bottom of the boat were two human flguros and ono of them a woman, and all around the boat tho soa was alive with sharks. They were diving under tho boat, running their noses against it and seeking to up set it, and had it been a shore boat thoy would doubtless havo had it over. As soon as wo caught sight of tho boat tho mate ran to call the captain. By tho time tho captain had arrived the boat had drifted right down against us, and one of tho crew lowered himself into her and made fast the painter. Then I got down to assist him, and wo passed up tho bodies, tho man first. We might just as well havo dropped him into the sea, for he had been dead for 24 hours at least. As we picked up tho woman, having not a doubt that sho was also dead, sho moved and uttered a groan and gavo us a great fright. Wo had her on board after a conplo of minutes, and tho small boat, which was a captain's gig, new and without a namo, was later on hoisted up. Captain Clark was a single man 80 years old, and neither of his mates was a married man. They found tho woman greatly exhausted through thirst and hunger, but with lifo enough to build hopes on, and they handlod her so well that at the cud of an hour it was re ported on dock that sho was asleep and would probably pull through. An hour after daybreak a breeze came, and we got on our course, and after a careful inspection of tho body of tho strange man it was given a sailor's burial. Hia pockets turned out nothing but some to bacco and a fow bits of silver, but he was recognized by all as a sailor. He had tho dress and general look, and the initials "S. E. W. " had been pricked on his loft arm in india ink. Tho boat was provided with mast, sail and oars ; but, as I said, sho was now, freshly painted and had no name on her. Wo didn't do much wondering over it, aa we knew the woman would explain all when she regained her strength, but all were glad that it had fallen to our lot to pick up the boat. It may surprise you to learn how long that woman slept. At intervals the captain raised her head to administer soup or drink, but not to actually interrupt her sleep, and sho did not open her eyes until 80 hours had passed. Then sleop had brought her fully back to life. It was 24 hours later before wo heard her story or, to our un bounded araazoment, learned that there was no story to tell. Tho woman could remember nothing of the past, not oven her name. If you have ever read Clark Russell, you will remember two such incidents in hia books. You may have set them down as "Bailors' yarns," but such things have happened on land a dozen times over. Every day for tbe last five yoara I have occupied a desk with a man who was practically drowned while bathing. After two hours' hard work they brought back the spark of lifo, but it was weeks before ho left his bed. Ho began a now life at that point. All tho previous 20 years wcro blotted out aa if they had never been. Tho woman awoko to find herself aboard a strango ahip with strange men around her. Sho waa a handsome, well formed woman, English in looks nnd speech and about 80 years of age. Bit apparel was fino and costly, but sho Woro no jewelry and had ncitbor a purso nor a cardcase. When asked how she came to bo at aea in the gig, what waa her name, whether she hadvisrted Ma doira or tho Azores, if sho lived in Eng land, aho could tell nothing, absolute ly nothing. She began a new life as she opened her eyes in tho cabin of tho Joyce. Theso tilings all came to us cm deck, because tho caso was a mystery and iK oauso the more it was talk, d over tho sooner a solution might be found. After three or tour days both cabin and fo'castle OOme to tho same gl Bl nl con clusion, which was this: Tho sailor must have been rowing tho woman off to a ship or from a ihip to shore at snino of the islands. The gig had just been bought by a merchantman, and her name had uofl yet been painted ou. Tho boat had boon drive n ahead of a galo for three or four days, and sho had not a biscuit r a drop of water aboard. Sho must havo sighted a scoro of ships in that great highwuy, but yet was not picked up. Ono would havo thought the sailor would havo borne up better than the woman, but ho may not have been in good health. That's tho way wo figured it out, and )t looked reasonable enough, and of course the right thing to do was to leave the woman at Trinidad and report tho case as widely as possible. Queerly enough, sho fought and baffled this plan. Our captain was a good looking man, and, feeling that sho owed him her lifo and duulf m being rather ro mantic by nature, vhat did she do but fall in love with him ! That is only half -tho story. He fell head over heels in lovo with her. The position was most embarrassing for him, however. All of ua were agreed that tho woman was or had been a wife, though sho bad no fin ger ring to provo it. The chaucos were that she had a husband somewhere. And wouldn't tho man search tho whole world over to find and regain her? Cap tain Clark would not dare marry her under tho circumstancos. It was crimi nal even to lovo her. I think ho saw things as an honorable man should, and yet he could not help loving her. When we reached Triuidad, he notified tho English consul, placed tho woman in the household of a friend and then sail ed for the port of New York. The story of our picking up tho living and tho dead was published far and wide. First and last it must havo ap peared iu 500 newspapers, and sailors talked of it in a thousand ships. Three months passed before wo returned to Trinidad, but no one had identified the woman. She had to have a namo, and thoy had given her that of Mrs. Rescue. She was well aud happy and glad to see her lover, and talk and argue as he would he could not convince her that any other man might have a claim on her. Sho simply repudiated the past. Wo got a charter for France, went to London in ballast and thenco got a freight to Demerara. While tho ship was discharging cargo Captaiu Clark went up to Trinidad. There was no news and no change. The publication of that story all over tho world had not solved tho mystery. No husband had come forward ; no relatives had written. As our ship had bcicn chartered to run between New York and Liverpool, Cap tain Clark decided to tako Mrs. Rescue homo with him, and this was done, and she was placed In the family of his sis ter on Long Island. I never saw her after the trip across, but I can tell you what followed. When almost three years had elapsed and there was still BO news, the two were married. The woman had not re covered one singlo point of memory. She was a trnllg'ir to herself. Sho had no country, no relatives, no namo ex cept by chance. After marriago the cap tain left the sea and went into the ship chandlery business in Brooklyn. One evening, two years after the wedding, the captain of an English tramp steamer just in called to ask for some informa tion. Ho OOBO plained of not being well, and, one thing leading to another, he finally related a tale of woe. Several years before, while his ship was at the Azores, his wife, who had been sent ashore in the morning, attempted to re turn about nightfall aud just as a squall was coming up. Tho boat was upset and the occupants lost. They found neither tho boat npr the bodies, but thcro wasn't tho least doubt of the calamity. The loss of tho wife so affected tbo husband that ho was ill of bruin fever for mouths, and he had never read a lino of her res cue in midocean. There was tho hus band at last, and Captain Clark realized that he had rights beforo him. Ho had married the woman on chance, and chanco had gono against him.
