PITIFUL FATE OF A LITTLE BOY
WHO WANDERED AWAY.
Blx-Tear-Old Lad Mart la Wron
Direction and. Alter Searching Par
tie Had Bought Hlaa tor Four Davra,
la Found at th Point of Death.
The family of Godfrey Hughe, a
member of the Urm of assayer owning
the Customs Assay otflce, recently went
to spend the summer mouths visiting
friends who owu lurge ranch about
seventeen miles above Albuquerque.
The family consists of the mother, two
sons and a daughter. One Saturday
the children asked permission to go to
a corral some 300 yards away from tha
house and on the other side of a knoll
that obstructed the corral from view
to play. Permission was grauted, and
the youngsters bounded away for their
afternoon frolic. Soon the little sister
wearied and the older brother proposed
that they take her t the bouse. To
this the youuger brother, Kmerson, who
waa only 8 years old, demurred, aa he
wished to nlay more. So the older
brother took his sister to the house.
L'pou arrival there the mother asked,
Where Is brother?" "We left him
playing at the corral." said the boy,
The mother then sent him back for
the little truant. Shortly the niesseu-
ger came back panting from his hur
ried running, and exclaimed that bis
brother was nowhere to he found; that
he was not at the corrol. The fright
ened mother hurried over to the corral
and there found the report of her boy
to be true. She searched and searched,
but could Bud no trace f the missing
child. At last she came upon some lit
tle footprints, showing that the child
had taken a direction opposite to what
he should have takeu, and the hnrasaed
mother became more aud more alarmed
aa the fact that her child had strayed
and waa In all probability loot became
apparent She followed the footprints
for three miles and ouly ceased because
darkness was approaching slid she was
powerless and had to call for aid. As
rapidly as her nervous and exhausted
state would permit she retraced her
steps to the house and alarmed the
household. Immediately a search party
was organized, and, despite the oncom
ing of night started out in quest of the
helpless child.
Through that disheartening night the
weary search continued. And the next
day the trained services of seventy-five
Indisns were Impressed, and all that
long and trying day the search went
on, and yet no clew to the wanderer.
The grief and agony of the poor afflict
ed mother were beyond consolation.'
The continued discouraging reports
that were from time to time brought
her only added to accentuate her suf
ferings. The tracks could be followed
for a distance of twelve miles and then
seemed to double upon themselves and
finally became lost Without rest the
searchers continued In what seemed
their hopeless quest. The thought of
the poor little tot being out upon the
dreary plains alone, without shelter or
food, wandering on with the helpless
ness of the lost, crying .possibly with
fright, tormented by the pangs of hun
ger and thirst, was simply maddening
to the poor mother and friends seem.

SPONGES IN HAWAIIAN WATERS.
Fish Commiaelon Believes They Co a
Be Found.
Believing that there are sponges of
merchantable quality in the waters
about the Hawaiian Islands, the last
week of the stay of the party repre
senting the Cuited States Fish Com
mission will be devoted In part to an
investigation of reports concerning
I heir presence. Should there be found
sponges which will be fit for market
these will add materially to the wealth
of the islands, more. In fact, than any
other product of the fisheries.
Thi're is one State of the Union which
now produces all the sponges which are
brought to the market locally. Along
the coast of Florida the industry has
been pushed to Its limit, until the an
nual sales of sponges amount to SOju,-
000. The product sells for as high as
$'J.j0 a pound, which makes the busi
ness most profitable. There are sixty
schooners In the trade, and the business
is the staple of many of the towns
along the coast of the State. The fish
ermen have brought the business to a
high state of perfection, and they are
able to make large catches in season.
The sponge nulling Is done In deep
water, the best specimens of the large
bath sponges being obtained from fifty
feet below the surface. They are locat
ed with a long pole carrying on Its end
blade like a letter 8, which cuts the
sponge loose with a twist snd it Is then
brought to the surface. If there is luck;
and If not and It gets sway, it is lost
forever. The men become very expert
In the business, snd they will carry it
on during high winds, losing very few
of the sponges.
There are many varieties of the
sponge, those which are generally found
8ort "blch are f Iue- 11 ' tne
opinion of Mr. Cobb, who Is one of the
experts of the fish commission on this
matter, that good sponges will be found
the reefs outside, and that In time,
tries inaugurated.
Reports have come to the raemlier of
the party, says the Hawaiian Gazette,
that high-grade sponges bav been
found at runaltm and other points on
been seen which are of the finest grade
of the satin sponge, aud the belief Is
expressed that there will be found a
great supply of the valuable growths.
Should beds be found these will be
further cultivated and the building of
the Industry will go on as rapidly as
possible.
A WABBLING CLERK CURED.
Head Bookkeeper Pat Up a Job est
111m that Qnletad Ills.
A man who has charge of roomful
of bookkeepers la the Stewart build
ing has broken a young clerk of the
bahlt of singing popular airs during
work hours, aud he tell the story for
the benefit of those who way be sim
ilarly afflicted.
The head bookkeeper has pretty good
nerves, and he stood the distressing ef
forts of the musical young man pretty
well until the calender broke out with;
"Has any one seen my cat?"
Most of the morning bad beea- en
livened by this song of Powers', with
this oft-repeated line, but at length th
head bookkeeper entered Into conspir
acy with the office boy. and the jani
tor's apartments were drawn upon for
a supply of real live cats. .
At the next outbreak of
"Has auy oue seeu my cat?"
The office hoy appeared with se
date tabby lu his arms, aud, going over
to the warbling youth, said:
"Is this It. air?"
"la this what?" replied the' young
man, pauslug lu bis career of doubtful
melody and swinging around In bis
chair.
'Why.1 is this the cat you bar been
asking about all morning?" aald the
boy, Imperturbably.
The young man swung back to his
work as the others in the office burst
Into a laugh and the boy retreated.
Presently the song from "Th Mes
senger Boy" broke out again, and th
omce boy was promptly on th scene
with a mewing kitten.
Is this It. sir?" said the boy with
mock respectfulness, and he placed th
kitten on the desk.
Take It away: take It away," ex
claimed the young man, and he kept
silence for nearly an hoar, but again
fell Into his musical query:
"Has any one seen my cat?"
This time the office boy appeared
with a whole family of cats In bis
arms, says the new York limes, ana
before the young man could chase htm
away the boy asked:
"Which one Is it sir?"
The warbling bookkeeper now keeps
discreet silence.
THE "WATER CURE."
Punishment that Ha Been Practiced
for Manx Tears in Navy.
What has come to be known as th
"water cure" treatment Is an adoption
by the army of a disciplinary measure
aa old to the navy as wooden hulls and
hemp rigging. The deep-sea sailor
calls It a "handy-billy wash-down," and
Its application Is only resorted to as the
most effective means to stop the brawl
ing profanity of a drunken sailor on
shipboard. '
Where ships are visiting ports In tor
rid climates It is considered a hardship
to confine a man in the brig, the ship's
lockup, because of the beat snd a sailor
who goes on board In an unruly, Intoxi

peace and discipline of the ship, to glv

to stop swearing or take the "wash-

the form of renewed effort to swear
louder and harder. The petty officer
in charge orders, "Pump sway!" and
for four or five seconds a steady stream
is played on the sailor's mouth. His
spluttering attempts to utter more
oaths in spite of the water are drowned
in the laugh from his shipmates. Phil

How to Roll an Umbrella.
Why it It," asked an Inquislllv cus

'that one can never roll up an umbrella

said the salesman, "but If everybody

Will It Succeed ?
Another exneriment In the line of
community housekeeping Is to be tried,
this time in a suburb of Berlin. A
large bouse, containing thirty rooms,
situated In extensive grounds of twenty
acres, has been rented by a community
of mutual iiciiiiiliitniicc, among whom
are both married aud single. A month
1.'.' rent of from llfteeu to twenty marks
will be levied for each room occupied.
The housekeeping will be In common,
and the kitchen uIno. One lady and one
gentleman will be elected to lake
charge of all the concern of the bouse,
These olllcers will be changed weekly.
A bill of fare aud all other matters of
Intere.-it connected with the eMtiibllah
inent will be posted up In the hall. For
food a dally charge of one mark will
be mnile. This charge Is so modern te
that It may have to be Increased later,
There will be a good library anil a com
mon drawing room, writing room,
working room aud dining room. Ar
rungements are also being made for a
common playground aud garden. The
community will consist at first of forty
persons, mostly engaged in literary and
artistic pursuits.
Danger of Celluloid.
Manufacturers of articles made of
celluloid should be compelled to stamp
plainly upon them the words "highly
Inflammable." The danger Is no Imag
inary one. A gentleman with a lighted
cigar In bis mouth was playing upon an
"American orgnn" furnished with cel
luloid keys. When some red hot ash
dropped upon the keys they Instantly
burst Into fumes and flame, which
coma only be extinguished with the
greatest difficulty.. A heated curling
Iron will readily start the 'volution of
dense and highly hi flu mumble fumes If
brought In contact with a celluloid
comb or hairpin. The proximity of a
naked light adds to the danger enor
mously, for the fumes of celluloid will
ignite fiercely at some considerable dis
tance from the flume.
A Vegetarian Argument.
It Is estimated that twenty-two acres
of land Is neeessury to sustain one man
