A WAESHIFS KEC0RD.
Ih.0 Varied Servica Performed by
the Flagship Chicago.
Borne Interesting Facts Concerning a Four
Tears' Cruise of the Slost Remark
able Ship In the White
Squadron.
Of. all the war ships' in the world,
there is probably not one so well known
throughout the two hemispheres as the
white cruiser Chicago, the flagship of
Ecar Admiral Erben, now doing so
much to uphold the honor and dignity
of the United States in London. She is
the most extensively known war vessel
for many reasons. Not only has she
visited more ports than any other war
ship afloat, says the Hew York Sun,
but she has camel the stars and stripes
into more harbors in a given space of
time than any vessel of her kind in the
history of the world; she has been seen
by more people of different nationali
ties and has fired more salutes, burned
more powder in peaceful festivities,
and has received more' honors and at
tentions from foreign nations than all
the other ships of the navy combined.
The Chicago, in addition to having
been the pride of the United States
navy longer than any vessel in any
other navy has held the distinction, has
made the longest recorded single
cruise and has participated in more in
ternational naval demonstrations in a
given period of time than any other
war vessel of modern times.
During a cruise extending over four
years and a half the Chicago traveled
the seas of the old and new worlds and
covered a distance of 49,805 nautical
miles, made port 2,781 times, entered
,970 harbors, came to anchor . 3,563
times on foreign stations, and fired
over 4,000 salutes, varying from thir
teen to twenty-one guns, and received
in return an equal number of compli
ments in the way of expended -powder.
Among the lands visited were Spain,
France. Italy, Portugal, Algeria,
Tripoli, Greece, Malta, Egypt, Brazil,
Yejjeela, jNicaragua Barbados, Era
gnay, Argentine, the Azores, Great
Britain and Ireland. During this ex
tended cruise the Chicago carried the
pennant of one admiral, although she
had three different captains and sever
al complete changes of officers, owing
to the operation of naval regulations aa
to sea and shore service. -
The: Chicago is also a remarkable
ship in many other respects. As the
flagship of the famous white squadron
she did great service to her country in
popularizing the United States navy,
among the navies and nations of the
earth and among the people of the
United States. She was the most pop
ular ship in the navyj not only with the
offlcers, but also with the bluejackets
and marines. .With the blue jacltets-she
was popular because she was a comfort
able ship, and while the discipline was"
perhaps,- somewhat strict her crew had
more than the usual privjges in the
way of opportunities to vibit ports.
They .got more shore liberty and more
chances of rewards for good conduct.
They had the use of the ship's band
forward of the mast twice a week,
when the men were allowed to receive
visitors and have dancing with their
friends. This was a most popular
feature" of bluejacket life on the Chi
cago. The popularity of the Chicago
among the rank and file is further
shown . by the fact that the average
number of applications for transfer tp
her from other ships was invariably
about 400. With the officers she was a
favorite because of her comfortable
quarters; and being the flagship, she
came in for more than the usual
amount of receptions and attentions
from foreign powers in ports visited.
The officers of the Chicago have been
entertained and received officially by
the representatives of nearly all the
chief European and South and Central
American governments, and the Chica-
go in return has had the honor of hav
ing entertained the representatives of
more foreign governments than any.
naval vessel afloat.'
The recent reception given to her
offlcers by the' representatives of the
government of Great Britain and the
return reception to be 'given" by them
may be considered crowning honor in
her career.' '
Antelope Preserve In Africa.
'An effort is being made in England
to form a society with the object--of
preserving-may of . the- species of
Booth African, antelopes, which "are la
danger - of soon . becoming extinct.
The scheme," which- is being promoted
and supported by a number of wellv
known sportsmen and scientists, is -to
inclose a suitable tract of country In
the district near Fort Salisbury with a '
wire fencing of, say, forty-five miles in
circumference, and drive into- this in-;'
closure small herds of the still-existing
species of antelopes which it is de-:
sired to preserve. - At certain seasons
of the year, to prevent overcrowding,:
a 'number of specimens would: be let.
loose or exported for the use of zoolog--ical
societies. . To carry out the plan a,
comparatively moderate eapital would
be required; and it is said that the.
British South African company will rex:
ceive & petition before long asking their.:
consent to the. fencing in of the pro
posed preserve. . -. -. '. "

England are forming, workingmen's.

izations is" to elevate the laborer, and
"they aim to do It by means of lectures
and.. cheap coffee. Has it ever struck'
the statesmen and high officials of the
Church of Englandj.and of other lands,
that it might "be a. good idea to form'
clubs"6f "caDilalists and employers, and

GOLD MEN'S PROBLEM

BURIED HIS GOLD
The Heirs of an Old Man Who
Just Died Searching For His
Treasures.
Bad Blood In West Virginia Two Women
Murdered In California Bud Effect
of the Weathrr on Wh
lnffton Crop. '
Chicago, "July 6. The program
of the gold men has just begun to
assume. shape, though submitted to but
few leaders. Whitney, the recognized
leader of the gold forces, has counseled
the anti-silver men to stand together,
and be ready to act in accord when
occasion requires. He has not indi
cated what action will be taken, but
refers to it as something determined
upon. It is understood that as the
matter stands, tie course is not to
walk out of the convention, but remain
until its close. Then, when the silver
men have captured everything and ad
journed, a conference will be held and
arrangements made for a convention
some weeks later, of anti-silver demo
crats, for the purpose of puttlDg in
nomination candidates whom tbey can
support. Of course, if the silver men
go to the extreme of turning out the
gold delegates in Michigan and cap
turing that state, a bolt may be im
mediately orecipitated, but the con
vention to select a. gold candidate is
not likely to be hastened by an actual
bolt from the convention.
Some of the gold men would prefer
that no candidate be put up, so they
could remain within the organization
and vote against the ticket named by
the silver men. This course is prefer
red by the Western men who feel the
silver organization to be verv strone
in their states and that bolters will
get the . cold shoulder, in the future.
Many Eastern men do not wane to be
put in the position of having to cbose
between a republican candidate and a
democratic silver candidate.
General Tracey, of New York, says
he does uot think a boh or a separate
ticket will be organized at this con-,
vention, but the people who do not
approve of the nomination of a silver
mn will demand another candidate.
He thinks the situation will not be far
different from that of 1872, when the
stalwart democracy refused to support
Horace Greeh-y and put Charles O'Con-.

A BENEVOLENT BARON.
80s Big Winnings on the Turf Distributed
Among the Poor.
Bather more than a year since, says
the London Telegraph,' we gave a list
of the charitable donations bestowed
by Baron de Hirsch in ' 1893 upon the
hospitals, homes and benevolent insti
tutions which he had selected as recip
ients of the large sums of money won
by him upon the turf in public stakes
in 1891 and 1893. In the first of these
years the baron won about S35.000 and
in the second year about 8175,000, in
cluding such small items as moneys
paid to the second in selling rases and
the prizes attaching to second and third
places in general races. - Altogether
the sum amounted to about 8210,000,
and . this munificent gift represented
the baron's gross winnings in public
stakes, from which no deduction was
made for the expense of training a large
stud of horses, for traveling charges,
forfeits, stakes, jockey's fees and other
items comprised in the ..large and
swollen bills with which owners of
race horses are but too familiar. - It
was universally adtsltted that the for
tunate owner of the famons mare La
Fleche, by whom the greater portion
of the above named large sum -was-won,
had displayed great generosity:
in giving away all his winnings for
Charitable purposes without subtract
ing1 his expenses. . What is to be Baid,
however,-when, as in the present in
stance, the example 6et by the baron
in 1893 is not only followed but dupli
cated in 1894? During the racing sea
son which close in . November last
Baron de Hirseh's horses won in public
stakes about 837.500. .: This seemed to
hiirt.V'ana trr-thekinarylriioner 1
through whom ' in both cases the
baron's bounty has flowed, - to be
but a small sum for distribu
tion in comparison ; with the no
ble contribution to London, charities
made in the previous year. Under
these circumstances the baron re
marked that, without establishing a
precedent, he had made np his mind to
double the sum that his gross winnings
amounted to in 1893, and accordingly
he drew a check for 875,000, whioh he
handed to his friend for distribution.
It was bis wish that this sum should be
divided among London hospitals and
charitable institutions, and 06,500 was
thus disposed of, the balance remain
ing having been reserved for sundry
smaller calls.
ST. PAUL'.S INSURANCE.
Nearly Half a Bllllion in Money Many
Precautions Taken Against Lightning.
St. Paul's cathedral is insured, says
"Spare Moments."- Out of the total
proceeds of the fabric fund, for keep
ing the building- in repairs, about 86,000
a year Si, 250 is expended on a policy
jf insurance against fire. The church
is insured to the extent of 3495,000. So
far as human ' precautions are of avail,
the cathedral is secure against light
ning on a scientific plan which was
suggested by the Eoyal society, as far
back as 1709. . , .
The 6even iron scrolls which support
the ball and cross, are connected with
other rods, used as conductors, . which
unite them with seyeral large-iron'
Ijars descending obliquely to the stone
work of the lantern, and connected by
an iron ring, with four other iron bars
to the' leaden covering of the great
eutxla. a distance of fifty feet. Thence
'the communication-is continued down
ward by the rainwater pipes to the
lead-covered roof, and thence again by
leaden water pipes which pass down
into the earth, . partly ' through iron,
and partly through lead. On the clock
tower, looking down Ludgate Hill, a
bar of iron connects the pineapple or
namentation at the top with the iron
staircase which leads np to it inside,
and thence to the lead on the roof of
the church. '
The bell tower at the northwest an -gle
is similarly" protected. By these
means the metal used in the building
is made available for the work of con
ductors, the metal itself being em
ployed merely for that purpose, being
exceedingly small in quantity when
compared with the bulk of the fabric
which it serves to secure.
AN ARMLESS NIMROD.
Bags More Game Than Any Other Hunter
In the Same County.
. An armless. Ximrod is the wonder of
the people and the envy of the sports
men of Bucks county, says the Phila
delphia Becord. He is John Simon, of ;
Zion Hill, and his prowess is some- .
thing marvelous. Simon's arms were
ground oil above the elbows in ma- j
chinery a few, years ago, but his love
of hunting spurred his ingenuity, and
he overcame his seeming insurmounta
ble obstacle. ' He straps his single-barrel,
breech-loading hammerless gun to
bis. right arm, and when he sights,
game he swings - the piece over the
stump of his left arm, takes quick aim ,
and fires, generally with telling effect, j
His mode of loading is as nhiqe as hia
shooting.' He carries the shells in hia
hat, and when he wants one bows low, ,
drops his hat on the ground, pulls out I
the empty shell with his teeth and In a
simllnr manner loads, then pushing
his head into - his hat to re-cover his
head. Despite his . affliction, Simon
has done some of the best Bh sot ing in
Bucks county the past year, his record
standing: Sixteen opossums, five
pheasants, five dozen blackbirds, thirty
seven rabbits and twenty-one quail.

PURE
TO EECLADI A; DESEKT.'-
Plans to Turn Death Valley,
an Inland Sea..'
Into,-
A Begioa Where Human, Beings Cmoao
Exist on Account of , Its Fxtreme
Heat and Aridity A Hog
IJndertaltlng. - : ' ''
Among the many- schemes now agi
tated by irrigationists is the reclaiming
of the famous "Death Valley" in the,
great American desert. It is proposed
to make it an inland sea by turning the
melting snows and rains that fall upon
the Sierra Nevadas into this "dry sea. "
The valley is two hundred feet below
the floor of the desert, is one hundred
and fifty miles long, thirty miles wide
at the northern end, tapering to about '
three miles in width at the southern
extremity. One of the schemes to re
claim the desert is to turn the Colorado
river into- the lower end, or, as it is
called, -the Colorado desert, from which
water would naturally seek its level
in Death valley. Another gigantic
scheme is to tap the ocean by a system
of canals. This would reclaim millions
upon, millions of acres of land by mod'
ifying the torrid climate, and perhaps
rendering this desolate region habita
ble for other beings than horned toads,
rattlesnakes and lizards, .j As the re
clamation, if feasible, ..would require
the expenditure of several millions of
dollars, besides leakage, it is doubtful,'
says the ; Chicago v Tribune,'1 whether
congress will '. lend a' listening ear. It
is believed hat- when Death, .valley
shall have , been filled with water the
reclamation of the entire upper portion
of the desert is assured. ' An opposition
theory s that as . the sands of the des
ert absorb the streams that trickle
down from the - mountains before they '
make ' much progress .the . absorption
would , be very- rapi; ; or, in other
words, that the valley. would not hold, .
water; also, that. as the temperature,
ranges from 110 to 136 degrees the year
round the ' absorption would also be'
very great. - The schemers admit that
the absorption would: be ' great,, but
that it 'would decrease: as it became
modified,- and would soon become so,
permanently. ...!.... .. , r1- ,"
- They deny that, the valley will' not'
hold water, by- proving, to their own,
satisfaction at least, that several cen
turies ago the entire desert, including -,
the hot valley, formed an arm of the- .
gulf of California., . In proving this
one of .'the promoters of this gigantic
scheme told of finding the timbers of
an old vessel in the desert about one'
hundred miles Inland. But, the usual
J'ofcl pioneer", comes forward and upsets-
thotf miathml nf InJwntiiKi min n
ing with the statement that in the
earlv davs he and others built a ferrv
j boat and started with it to a point on
the Colorado river; their or teams dy
' ing irom thirst, the boat was aban
doned,, and was soon Covered by the
drifting sands.
These theories, and more, will all.
come to the front as soon 'as the pro
moters of the enterprise begin the v.$i
tation. There is no fear that it will
amount to anything, yet congress has
done many impracticable things.
Death valley is the hottest place on
earth, so far as known np to date.:
There is no spot so deadly, more deso
late and so thickly strewn with dead..
It is appropriately named, for human
life cannot exist amid its poisonous va-'
pors, and "even the birds are Infected
with its noxious gases and fall dead in
their flight. Heavy rains never fall in
this death-dealing place, and the few
light showers, only make the atmos-..
phere more humid. If possible.. With
the thermometer at one hundred and'
thirty-six degrees in the shade, and the
sun beating against the black bristling
rooks, reflecting baok the intensified
heat, one may form. some idea of this
desolate region. It is the dry est place ,
in the world the bodies of those who ,
perished from ( thirst have "been found
in after years completely mummified.
The corpses wereiiot disturbed by even '
the prowling, hyena.' - Animal life 'can- '
not exist there nlv the reDtile snecics. :
Men have died from . thirst, and yet .
water was within reach. ,
The blistering heat and dryness of "
the ' air ' rendered - it Impossible to
keep ther body -to the proper temper- :-
attire to sustain life. -This valley'
was named by Gov. . Blaisdell, of Nevada.-
He and few -others were mak- i
ing a survey, and found the mummified -
-remains of -about twenty emigrants.
who, in attempting to cross the valley,
lost their way and died of thirst and
starvation. .... - .
INDIANS DIE IN PRISON.
Apaches Yield to Consumption la Conflae
ment at Yuma. . . .
It la a remarkable fact, though one "
easily accounted for, that, imprison-4
ment at Ynma for any term of not less '
than five - years -of an- Apache or any 1
mountain Indian is equivalent to im-.
prisonment for life, and the cause of t
death is invariably consumption.
This is a disease, says an Arizona ex
change," almost unknown' among the ,' .
Apaches under normal conditions of
climate and habit. The change, how
ever, from the high altitudes of - the '
mountains and the bracing mountain ,
air to the lower level of Yuma, with it
more than semi-tropical heat, wears
away what mountain storms and ex- . ;
posure cannot even indent. " " ' - '
On March 29 of this year Say-es, a 3
Tonto Apache, died at Yuma. He was '
a member of the Kid's band, and was
one of the murderers of' Sheriff Bey
nolds and his deputy, who were guard- -ing
them on a journey to Yuma. The -murderers,
along ' with the Kid, es- "
caped. Say-es - alone was afterwards ;
recaptured, and all the rest of the band -except
the Kid have since been killed.
Say-es was sentenced for life from Pinal
county.. .
Two months before the death of
Say-es Dr. Cotter pronounced his case
hopeless and recommended hia pardon "
on account of the danger of infection.
. The governor decided to grant .tho i
pardon, but vigorous protests came up
from Final, Graham and Gila, oo unties.
The pardon was not granted, and Say-ea , .
died two months later.
