The young man was whistling "Beautiful Nell." In a seat not far. away from him sat an old mac. After 'a while the old roan moved intoa vae.tut place near the whistler and remarked : "I do not want to annoy you. Neither do 1 wish to disturb you, train of thought, but that tune you were blowing always makes me think of ono of the most pathetic iuuideuts in my career. And if you don't mind, I'd like to tell you about it. I'm au old fellow now and I like to talk.'' There tsar nn objection and by this time „everybody in the place had dawn avuuud the ,'lel fellow, who went ahead. '• lily boyhood days," said ho, "were passed ou the rocky and ►yeird cast of Notth Cornwall. My honto was near the mouth of the River Camel, tho.only safe harbor of refuge fortis a oor'west gale ha• tween Tintagel Heed and Laud's End. "'`It was a bad place to get into, but with care a vessel (night !pass Pentire Poiut, Greenway Beach, and the leer, and thus reach a safe anchorage. - POLSEATB BEACH. "Right around Pentire Point was a bio flat sand beach called Polseath, It was a beautiful place in Calm weather, but when the full force of the, ground sea Caine on it was terrible in its grandeur. Huge waves—not to be compered with our own Michigan swells—broke over this bench. and mtny'e the time I've seen some poor fellow struggling for life in the surf on Puleenth Beach, iu sight perh tps, of his home. Ouoe, I remember well— but I was going to tell about that tune. "One day, in the afternoon, the boys inTrriiiiiizzi k school heti juei been released when along cattle the informatiop, that a big• foreign barque was beating for Padstuw harbor. There was a nor'wester blowing, and people said that the r'rew of the bark were not aware of the danger they were in. Away went the school boys, 1 with thetn, and when we climbed the cliffs and looked down upon Polseatll., the sea Alm!,was breaking there was truly 'awful. I had never eaten anything like it. occasionally the Marco Primogeuitu had paused out of existence with ell her orew. "Soon after this came a story that • 'the ohurohyard of St. Enodoo, where the drowned sailofa were, was haunted. Farmers on their way up the valley ft'otn Rock to Tru- betheriok declared'that they had j'requeutly heard a plaintive voice singiug iu the churchyard. These told their neighbors, and soon the whole pariah of St. Miuver was talking about St. Euodoc churchyard and its ghost ST. ENODOC'S GHOST. "This, however, was nit the first time that the good Cornish folk had heard such stories of St. Euodoc Iu lac', there were many people alivc'iu the 'pariah who could re• call the time when the old- Quaker burying ground near Treglints had harbored the most marvelous ghost of modern times. Thia specter was able—well, I will confine myself to St. Euodoc. "Bray hill near the old church- yard, was the highest spot in the parish. It was no small job to reach its top, but once there the view was nagtrificent. The river Camel could . be traced for miles. Peds'ou town looked like a trap ou paper. Pentire Point seemed jutt beneath. Polseath and Greenaway and Darner Beaches were close at hand, and far off was Tint.tge! Head, while on a clear day Lpndy Island was distinctly visible. Nuw, to. reach Bray Hill it was neceasary to pass close to St. Enodoc church yard, and this proximity of the haunted spot kept all the timid away from this glorious height. ON BRAY HILL. "One day to the Cornish folk on that northwest coast came the tid• i'ngs that a wouderful comet had made its appearance and was visible away off iu the west, - And Bray Hill was the only place from which a good view of it was possible. But Bray Hill was all too near to St. Euodoc churchyard, and as the tnysleriouschauting had but recently.. been heard by old Sam Sleeinau, the sexton of the parish church, who had bean setting some rabbit nese on the common it was decided -by -the good people that the comet might be worth seeing, if a glimpse of it could be had without encountering St. Euodoc and the ghost. "Now, my fathor was a man who didu't care very much about ghosts. He was inclined to believe that for all the mysteries with which that coast was surrounded there could be discovered a reaseuable explana- tion. In fact, it was told of him that he once undertook to look into the Quaker burying ground specter, but this he alwaye denied, although, privately, my opinion has always been inclined to the belief that there was sorno truth in the story. THE AUSTRIAN BIRK. "Through the haze, just oil Pen• tire Point and between that and the famotes Gull Rock, we saw the fettle, flying the Auatrian colors at half mast and upside down—Asign of distress. She was pluugiug shout at a terrific rate, but not a stieh of canvas was set. One moment s'ie would be on her beam elide, and then again, after a plunge,. she would seem about to heal right hr the racks. And while we looked on she came direct for the beach. - "Well, it didn't take that sea long to finish her. She was a 'spike' ship anyhow, and the mo- ment she struck away went her masts, and when the first sea had clear- ed her all we could see was a mesa of wreckage. "Then we rushed to the beach. In came the broken timbers. With these occasionally was the battered body of a sailor, hut when night came on there wat no sign that a life bad been saved. Eight sadly broken corpaee had been tenderly carried above tide mark, and We had discovered that the bark was tbo Marco Primogenito, loaded with coal, but that was al L AFTER THE WRECK.

The bearers always stopped st the gateway, laid then' burden on this atone, and waited until the rector moved .down the graveled walk, say, '[ am the resurrection and the life,' Then the proeeesion moved again. WHAT IT WAS. "When we came to a point about twenty feet from the gateway my father slopped and appeared to be gazing at the stone. There was a good star Tight `and ei jeete were easily discernable. 1 louked were he was gazing and there, on that Blab, eats figure, which, even as we watched it, broke out into song.

No ghoet could do that. "The man that stepped up to us was above the average height. He wore sailor's clothes and his face was covered with a beard. But all my father's questioning could de- velop nothing. The man was a mauiao. At intervals he would break out into , his song and the eti'sot, was btrauge. I was rather inclined to be •afraid of this' queer individual, who, after gesticulating wildly, singing wildly, pointed toward the sea cud thou ran off over the sand duues, singing 'Beautiful Nell.'

My father •bad seeu the live man, had talked to him, and in the parish he had a way of convinc- ing •people that what be said was, worthy of consideration. St. Euodoc church -yard was decided to bo no longer dangerous, but still there was a mystery as to who and what this strange man could be. He was never seen again alive, but ono morning, about a week after, Ilia body was found in a pool at Greenaway, where the tide had left it. I•[e was buried in St. Enodoc churchyard, and about a year later r$oatue the explat>;atiou of his mystery. He was the sun of a wealthy English family, and had gone to' sea against the wishes of his phrentts. I[ hid Shipped in the Marco Pritnogonito, and after a long search, when this fact had been discovered, his fate was learn ed and his body exhumed and taken to the vault of hie forefathers. He had been •washed ashore in the wreckage unseen, and probably in• sane from fright or injury had wandered about the cliffs and eaud- hills, singing his wierd song and giving to St. Enodoc the founda- tion for a ghost story. "But whenever I hear `Beautiful Nell' my memory turns back to that Cornish coast and the ead end of that young man." And the old fellow relapsed into a reverie. He was again in his boyhood home, and the roar of the firealee.ra--was-oneo--msr-e-in -•iiia--ears: The young man did not whistle again just then. SHOT BY HIS OWN BURGLAR TRAP.
