moved they had been there many
years. The building has undergone
a general renovation Inside and oat.
and now presents a much more invit

A Rarb Sioht. There was a strange
eight viewed by the people of this
place Tuesday evaulng. The moon,
whioh was but a few days old. and the
evening star, Venice, were traveling
exactly tha same oourse, or nearly so,
at least, from all appearance, for at
one lima the star stood exactly upon
tha upper point of the moon, present
ing a lovely as well as phenomenal
soene, aa the entire oirole of the moon
was most brilliantly illuminated. The
two planets apparently remained in
their close proximity for several mo
menta, when the atar passed down

passing Warrior rock about 10:30 p.
rn. tba boat, which was carrying too
much canvas, uacerimonioualy cap
sited, precipitating its oooupanta to
the rough water. With characteristic
1 1 alien grit they clung to their boat
whioh drifted to the breakwater oppo
site this place, where the men deserted
the boat and climbed upon the jetty,
where they shouted Ions and loud for
help. Their distressing appeals for as
siatanoe were beard by several persons
here during the night, and two or
three attempts were made bv looal
fishermen and others to locate them,
but without inoceedinar. The men
remained in their unoom for table po
sition until about 7 o'olook the next

ing the heated work room to run across

out in the rain. The result was that
when ready to go home that night he
was unable to walk, owing to inflam
matory rheumatism. He waa taken
home, and on arrival was placed be
fore a good fire and thoroughly rubbed
with Chamberlain's Pain Balm. Dur
ing the evening and night he was re

Pain Balm, and always keeps a bottle
of it in the house. For sale by Dr.
