A SEA TRAGEDY.
Thm Startling' Story of the American
Bsrkentlne Herbert Fuller.
Tie sea has ever been a favorable scene
with Tomaucers for desperate conspire
cies and tragic crimes. This has been
due to the seclusion which, it offers
and also, perhaps, to the traditions of
piracy which hang about it. There was
a time when' the line of demarcation
between the pirate and the' peaceful
mariner was not very sharply drawn
and the late. Prentice Mulford, who
grew up in a seafaring' town and had
even served on shipboard before the
mast, once wrote an article maintain
ing that the relations which still pre
vail between the master and the crew
of a ship are a relic of the days when
all seafaring- men were, practically pi
rates. Possibly a juster- explanation
of the harsh treatment to which sailors
are subjected would be found in the
arbitrary authority which law and cus
torn necessarily bestow upon asliipmas
ter, for it is almost an axiom that un
restricted power always leads to tyran
ny that nothing but lack of author
ity prevents every man from misusing
it. At all events, the reader of a sea
novel expects to meet with various
sorts of mysteriously dark deeds, while
the reader of the marine columns of
a newspaper is regaled with plenty of
actual crime, albeit of a generally com
monplace and uninteresting character.
The story of the American barken'
tine Herbert Fuller, which the newspa
pers have been recently telling, however,
is as tragically startling as any ever
related by Stevenson or Kussell. 1 he
officers of a vessel have often enough
been murdered by the crew, who then
seized the vessel,- and it has sometimes
happened that some officer has joined
the crew in mut inying against the cap
tain, as in the case of the Bounty. What
adds especially to the sensational fea
tures of the crime on board the Herbert
Fuller is that it does not seem to be
known positivelv who killed the cap-
tain, his wife and the second mate.
The evidence against the first mate
appears to rest on his supposed un
willingness to make port after the dis
covery of the murders. He is even sus
pected of having intended to .turn the
vessel over to the Cuban insurgents,
What must have been the astonishment
of the pilot- on going on board to find
the vessel in charge of the colored
steward and a Harvard sophomore pas
senger, the mate in irons, and the Tbb'lies
of the three murdered persons towing
astern in the small boat!-'?'' That last
touch is characteristic. The survivors
did not dare throw the bodies overboard
because they were needed as evidence
to protect themselves as well as to con
vict the guilty; their superstitious no
tions were appalled at the notion of
keeping the bodies' on board the ves
sel; so (hey compromised by towing
them astern.
Undoubtedly the Herbert Fuller
tragedy will form the plot of many a
future sea novel. But no romancer
could have afforded to invent so extraor
dinary a taie. He would have been
laughed at on account of the inherent
improbability of his incidents. The
murders might have passed muster, but
the Harvard student and the colored
steward in their extraordinary role
would have been pronounced simply
impossible. Buffalo Courier.
BOUNTIES IN SEALS.
Maine Still Fays a Bounty and Last Tear
Raised It.
Maine paid bounties on 1,062 seals
and on 305 bears in 1895. In 1894 only
385 seals and 550 bears were killed. The
increase of seal killing is due to a 50-
ceot increase of the bounty, making it
one dollar. The bears have been thinned
out by extensive killing. Why there
should be a bounty on seals is plain,
says the New York Sun, to those who
know that in a single year a seal con
sumes 3,050 pounds qf fish, which would
make 6,060,300 pounds saved by the
lulling of 1,663 seals in 1805. Most of
the fish eaten are coarse-grained, such
as are used in baiting lobster pots
sculpins, flounders, tomcods, etc. but
not a few valuable fish, like herring,
salmon and mackarel, are killed by
these animals. Much difficulty is ex
perienced by seal hunters in securing
all of the animals killed. Many badly
wounded ones escape, and probably,
more than 2,000 seals were killed during
1805.
2fo one knows exactly why bounties
are paid on black bears. They are harm
less animals, according to competent ob
servers, feeding on. .beechnuts, wild
fruits of vaTious kinds, on carrion, and
roots of plants, seldom if ever molesting
farmers in any way. Maine pays five
uoiiars ana JNew .iork ten dollars a
head for' killing these good-natured
creatures.
William's Culinary Department.
The German emperor has a curious
.arrangement with his kitchen depart
ment. The empress arranges his menus
nd he pays the cooks about two dol
lars for each plate, on ordinary oc
casions,, and five to seven dollars on
state occasions. Luncheon is served at
two and dinner at six. The empress
shares all his meals, and at luncheon
they usually have company courtiers,
artists, savants, authors, or distin
guished foreigners who happen to be in
Berlin.
Squeezed to Death In a Stump.
George Bennett, of Eden, Ont., met
with a horrible death the other evening.
He was assisting in the operation of
splitting large stumps with a jack
screw and had one nearly split, when
he stepped into the opening. Suddenly
the jackscrew sprung out, the stump
closed like a shot, catching Bennett, and
hevas slowlv pnneezed to death. "

A MOSQUITO INVADES ENGLAND.
Mew Jersey Insect' Revenge for Viola
tion of Monroe Doctrine.
The harrowing news comes from Lon
don that a" mosquito, has been taken
alive in Hertfordshire. A gentleman
living at. Barley, Eoyston, writes to a
London paper that on a recent evening
he encountered the ferocious beast in
his bedchamber. . .
. An Englishman is always brave, and
it seems almost superfluous to add that
the man of Barley grappled with the
creature single-handed, nor stayed his
hand until it was under subjection. We
sometimes read of such feats of derring
doe even in these degenerated days.
Next to vindicating . his personal
bravery, an Englishman's first duty is
to write to his newspaper and tell about
it. To this admirable national trait
the readers of the Sunday Herald are in
debted for the particulars herein set
forth. The man of Barley had traveled
in far countries. Among other places
he had visited the famous city of New
Jersey, and in the transmississippian
capital had met and coped with the
mosquito in its lair.
Thus he is able to identify his quarry
and lay before the British public a
harrowing picture of the animal's dis
tinguishing traits. .
"The specimen caught," he writes,
"has every characteristic of the for
eign mosquito, especially the New
Jersey variety. I believe -they have
been brought to England with timber,
for in New Jersey the logs of timber,
which are usually carried down the
livers, have on them mosquito eggs
gathered from the surface of the wai
ter, where they breed, and so in this
manner are transported to Europe,
where the sunshine hatches them, and
they fly away."
It now remains only to unite- the
English people as one man against the
.nvader. Hence this suggestion:
"Let every person carefully examine
his bedroom window in the morning
and kill them, as by so doing they would
be prevented laying their eggs and
breeding. . Now is the time to act to
prevent them spreading. . They may
easily be known by their resemblance
to gnats, but having a long trunk r
proboscis, and by making a humming
noise when approaching the face or
hands of a person."
Accompanying this slogan is a dia
gram what has been called the busi
ness end of the mosquito, which may
be used for further identification of the
dreaded foe, should he be encountered
unawares. N. Y. Herald.
The Face That Kills.
"Every time I come to the United
States," said Mr. Hugh Jamison, of Lon
don, England, "I find fresh cause for as
tonishment in the marvelous energy of
the Yankee nation. It seems to me that
the people work on this side for the
sake of work, they appear to regard it
not as a means to an end, but the end
itself. This universal rush and hurry
impresses itself very forcibly on Eu
ropeans. Some years ago I was visit
ing a friend in Russia, which is a very
quiet country indeed, and, the conversa
tion turning on London, some one re
marked upon the unceasing activity
and press in the British capital, and how
the people hurried along the street dur
ing the busy hours of the day. An old
Russian thereupon, with a grave shake
of his head, observed that he had been in
London once, and that nearly all its cit-'
teens were mad. I wonder what this
bid gentleman would have thought if he
had ever made a pilgrimage to Chicago?
Now, it is questionable in my mind
whether this traffic pace is a healthy
thing for a people. Isn't it the pace
that kills? Why not leave something
for succeeding generations to do ? Your
rich men, instead of settling on big
country estates and helping to improve
the rural districts, seem to all cluster in
the cities, and to continue adding to
their fortunes. The mania for work, for
active endeavor, seems never to leave
them, and their children inherit the
same tendencies." Washington Post.
A Jewish Weddinu Feast.
There were a great many people com
ing and going that day at the house
of the wise liabbi Isaac Ben Nassur.
They were not all Cana people, by any
means. The bridal feast was spread
in the large front room opening upon
the porch, and all who had a right to
enter were welcomed heartily. Food
was plentifully provided, but the mer
riest hour of each day would be after,
sunset, when, the day's work being
done, all the invited guests would
come. The bridegroom was continual
ly present, to receive congratulations
and good wishes. With him were sev
eral young men of his more intimate
friends; but decidedly the most impor
tant figure in that room was Isaac
himself. As master of the house and
ruler of the feast, he sat at the
head of the long table provided for
.the occasion. His dress was as simple
as ever, but it seemed to' have under
gone a change, he wore it with so grand
an air. He appeared to be haonv. and
he received great respect from the
throng of people who came to congrat
ulate him upon the marriage of his son.
So the marriage feast went on until the
midday was past and the shadows be
gan to lengthen in the streets of Cana.

of the spotted lace with which their

which, being worn by the highest ranks
in the French army, was, as a mark of
military superiority, bestowed by the
prince regent upon the lowest ranks.

The Winane Bros, who were' cited to
appear beforeJJudge Ban ford at Spokane
and show cause why they should not be
fined for contempt for excluding Indians
from fishing on deeded land, had a hear
ing on the 8th, and were dismissed,
Judge Hanford deciding they were not
in contempt. The defendants contend
ed through their attorneys, Hdntmgtou
& Wilson, that whattver rights are se
cured to Indians by treaties are subject
to state laws, unless congress at the
time the state is admitted to the Union
withholds from the Btiite the right to
make laws which would contravene
treaty rights. .
It has been the claim on the part of
the Indians that in giving up their lands
to the U. S. government, they not only
had the right to occupy their reserva
tions. without molestation, but hunt
and fish upon all public lands not acta
ally resided upon by settlers. The state
of Washington has a law by which fish
ermen may purchase beach lands between
high and low water marks for fish
ing privileges, upon which others are
not allowed to trespass. The Winans
Bros, became possessed of certain lands
in this manner upon which some Yaki
ma Indians persisted iu fishing, and the
owners of the land, believing that In
dianB possessed no right which were for
bidden a white citizen, ejected them
therefrom. Hence the suit, which has
now terminated in ' a victory for the
Winans Bros.
