The Fr-nch bark Jean Hart, which grounded In the lower harbor l.mt Monday (luring the gulc. was afloat for a lime yesterday morning. The Hood tide raised her off the sands, and with ar 4iy-h.tr lhat was placed out .(.U-rn she waa hedged back toward the channel. Refnre the work wn completed, however, the etib set In and forced the bark ba k on the s.tnd. She will dollbtlesfl be Olbvil again this mondng an I then will be towed Into deep wale.- by a tug. The Fnyledale was not so fortunate, and still remains on the bank. Lighters have lieen or dered for her, but have not yet readi ed the lower harbor. Anoth-r great crowd thronged the midwinter circus last nlifhl ond got an excellent run for Its money. From the time of the opening of the doors until almost midnight the big crowd remained, nnd the circus is proving a success in every respect. Tonight an entire change of program will be pre sented. The fat Indy will positively loop the lixtp. and the Wahkow war dame will be a feature worth going miles lo sec. Axel will perform some suicidal font that' ought to take with the public.

That fishery men are determined to put a stop to ttsrlcii destruction of fish fhat tends lo extermination is well il lustrated by Ihe recommendations con tained In the annual report submitted by Master Fish Warden Van Dusen to the board of tish commissioners nt fa-"-n. Amon other thlims It recom mends that a "dynamiter" be punished with a term of 10 years in the peniten tiary and not be allowed lo gel off with it tine, as tinder the present law, and lhat the board of flh commissioners be authorized and empowered to offer a i-ewo'-d to be paid nut of the hatch ery fund for the -ureal and conviction of a dynamiter, or the arrest and con viction of a pernio polluting the wa ters of the state with malicious Intent. It Is also strongly rccumim ndi'd that rherlffa nnd n.;u-i.jbU:i i,t t'.ir.. all the laws enacted for the prole -Hon of fish bo enforced. Another recommendation that cannot full to attract the Interest of the people generally Is "that an im iiu.il onnroi i-latlon of at least $10011 be allowed (he coast streams to assist In defraying (he expenses of maintaining the coast butcheries." A pamphlet Issued by a religious sect which contains startling predictions has been received at this office. Cal culations hosed on Hlbllcnl passages and earthly happenings following lend the uuihor to warn the eople of a ub. meralon of the souihern portion of the Imlted 'Sutes ond part of the old world on Saturday night, December IS. The writer argue that nature provide for mibmurnlon, by which ih life giving propcrtle of th earth are re, stored, the Inn being "rested," a It were, during the period of submersion. and without which perpetuity would be Impossible. It 1 pointed out that submersion huve occurred In the past, proof beln found on Ihe mountains, where sea (shells and othr evidences of ocean life are frequently discovered. The washing of earth into the sea re sults in changing the bottom of the ocean to resemble the face of the e.'itb and thus (,-reates the new surfai that I to take the place of Ihe old onu. This submersion happens once every SWO year, or what Is known a a "time," and the phenomenon I due again on Saturday night, when full conjunction of planet, sun and full moon will take place In opposition to the earth and a chnnge In the position of Its water will result. That portion of the earth M degree of Its surface which will be affected by the change la described as western Kurope, western Asia and that part of the Criled States situated south of a line connecting the south west corner Kl Poo, Tex. A topy of the first number of The Astorlun is now- at this office. It I dated July I. 1873, and was Issued tri weekly by V. C. Ireland. The paper presents a remarkably neat appear ance and Is full of news and liiti-et. In his Intr du.-t try F.dltor Ireland says he -)ursw' conducting an Independent paier of merit and thai nothing "yel low" will find Its way Into The Asio rlan's columns. From the first para graph of the editorial II would ap- l.ar rhat a paper was never before published here, but a journal known as '.he Murine Gazelle Is said to have been Issue 1 In the late '60s.

Captain Mniith, of Iiurk Mada- jritM-ar, Iyves If U Illiwr nlan Crew. Mighty Indeed are the Irish If the statement of Captain Smith of the British nark Madagascar can be taken for It Hons of the Kmerald isle, he says, pulled the big capstan of the ship to pieces, and the jolly Scotch skipper vows and declare that his Irish crew would have pulled the ship apart had I not called them off at an opportune moment. He has pinned his fulth to the Irish and never will go to sea without a goodly, sprinkling of that nationality In hi crew. The people of tr.U seaport city will be surplsed to know that there are such being as Irish tailors. The Im pression generally prevail that all the Irishmen In the world are on the Amtricon pohVe l'"t It seem that there are a few surplus Irishmen and that they have taken to the sea At all evenft. the Madagascar has several Irish sailors, and Captain Smith thinks as much of them as of Ihe apple of his eye. When storms awejp the sea ond threaten the life of She ship, his Iri-dimen are the first aloft, ever ready to do their duty and do it well. They were never knon to shirk tlHir work, and the captain is ready to stake his existence that two Irishmen are as good aboard ship as three sailors ot any other nation ality, not barring his beloved Scots. The Madagascar has been to the lower harbor for some weeks, with the other weatherbound ships, ' She Is grain laden and h'r captain has been anxious to get to sea., Wednesday morning the tug was ready to tow the bark outside and start hor on her long journey, and the gallant Irish crew was on deck at an early hour to heave the anchor. Captain Smith's story ot their strength demonstrations Is won derful lo hear, for he recounts that the sturdy sons of the green Isle ac tually heaved so hard that they broke the great capstau. The anchor was partially up when the casting gave vy before 'die strength of the men. and the accident made It impossible for the bark to proceed to sea. The damaged gearing has been taken to the Astoria Iron works, where the necessary repairs will be made In a week' tlm While Captain Smith Is annoyed at the delay, he finds some comfort In Mic thought that no other crew on earth could do as much dam age in a similar manner. Caotaln Smith has great faith In the Irish. Test?rda'y while going down to the lover harbor In Captain Heating's launch Elk, the two men became in (Continued on Page 4.)
