A Story of Millionaire Lick, James Lick, of San Francisdv, was an unlovable millionaire, of whoin a curious story is told, When a poor youth in Pennsylvania he was rejected by the daughter of « wealthy miller on account of his poverty, He vowed at that time that he would some day build a mill that would far surpass that of his sweetheart's father. Many ‘years later he kept. his vow and.constructed at San Jose a mill of highly polished California wood valued at €200,000. During bis lifetime Mr. Lick had few friends and apparently cared for none. He lived plainly and was seen very little jin public. The larger part of lis fortune was left to charities aud public institutions, one notable bequest being the sum of $60,000 for the’ erection of a statue to Key, the author of the ‘Star Spangled Banner. While many institutions profited by Mr: Lick’s posthumous gifts, his most ‘Thebatht chipped writ or a nod rode Th bs witers acted upon by winds and currents circulated round and round like a pool, In all pools floating objects are quicky cast outside of the revolving currents, for they are-earried with them-dn-their }‘ircular route for some time until they re washed ngarer the center or side of the pool,_The bottles that were forced utsice of the currents of the ocean were ‘ast upon the shores~of some country, mut those which were worked toward he center eventually found their way in he eth -waters--of-the: Sargasse--sen, ifere thoy remain peacefully. until icked up by some vessel, or until some Tosa cists then back into tho oo ul inthe midd’e_of the ocean, but-oceaijonally they ure driven there by storms or adverse Winds, Strange sights mect tho gaze of the sailors at auch -times. Wonderful stories-—partly true and partly false—have been told by sailors returning from a forced trip.to the Sargass6 sea, The surface of thesea is covered with floating wrecks, spars, seaweed, boxes, fruits and a thousand other inntuaerable articles, It is the great repository or storehouse of tho ocean, and all things which do not sink to the bottom or are not washed. upon. the shores are. carried. to. this counter of the sea When one-considers the vast) number of wrecks on the ocean and the quantity of floating material. that is thrown overboard, .

The wrecks are covered with mould and, green slime, showing the long, lonesome voyage which they have passed through. It. is generally supposed that such derelicts have been swept into the center of the pool and remained in the Sargasso sea until finally cast out by somo .»unusually violent storm, F The life in this sea is interesting, Solitary aud aloue the acres of waters, cov‘red with the debris, stretch out as the vast, graveyard of. the ocean, seldom . being visited by vessels or human beings, War from a!l trading routes of vessels, vhe sight of a sail or steamship is omething nousnal, The: fishes of the sea form the chief life of those watory wlitudes, Attracted by the vast quanities of wreckage floating in the sea, snd also by the gulf weed on which many of them live, they swarm around in great numbers, ‘he sialler tishes live in the intricate avenues formed by the seaweed, and the more ferocions-denisons of the deep come hither to feed up= mn the Guantitios of small fish.
