For some reason which is not very obvious pirates and piracy have been claiming an undue prominence in the daily press. The subject is one which will never grow stale so long as men love an adventurous theme, and the number of new books issued each year-all more or les variz tions of the immortal Trenure Island prove that the romantic spirit and the love of "steep" yarns is still far from moribund."

"If proof be wanted that the romance of the sea is not dead it may be found in the account of the trial of Black Sea pirates who are shortly to be tried in Paris. The men are alleged to have overpowered the crew of the steamer 'Socirah, plundered the passengers, and gat away in the ship's boats with £280,000. Though the black brig
