William II. Williams, who went to
Seal Island three months ago as a spe
cial at nt of the government, has just
returned to Washington. He said that
tlespite the presence of nearly a dozen
American and English men-of war in
and around Bchriug Sea illicit sealing
was being carried on extensively. Pre
vailing fogs in the sea made it easy for
fast-sailing schooners to elude pursuit,
and Williams is of the opinion that the
illegal catch for the present season will
number 20,000 seals. Of the 7,500 skins
allowed privilege holders this year 0,300
caught by natives for food have already
passed into the hands ut t he North Amer
ican Commercial Company. This leaves
only 1,200 seals to lie captured Is-tween
now and May 1 of next year; and, as
that niimls-r will not supply the Aleuts
on the Islands of St. Paul and St. George
with food, the Commercial Company will
have to keep the natives from starving.
Williams is of the opinion that a couple
of years' protection to seals is necessary
in onier to keep them from iKMng exter
minated.

Colonel It. F. Fshleman, the present
chief of the veteran corps, Washington
Artillery l amp, went out with the fa
mous battalion in lstil as Captain of the
fourth company. He was the first ollicer
wounded at the battle of Bull Run.
After serving gallantly in several en
gagements he was promoted to Major
ship of the battalion, and was in com
mand at the surrender at Appumattox.
Paul Conrad. A true representative
of" lieiu lemps" is found in Paul
Conrad, a delegate from Camp Heary,
St. Paul. He in a purely typical liouisi
anian. With an ancestry as old as the
country, he combines in himself every
essential feature of the old-time Creole,
with the progressive characteristics of
the present age.
Born in this city on December 31,1840,
of native parentage, be, with many
whose names will ever live in the his
tory of the State, attended the public
school of this city.
At an early age the death of his father
left him to bullet the world with but lit
tle help, save the encouraging and wise
counsel n of a brave mother, and deter
mined his early embarkation in the va
rying and stern actualities of life.
lie began a commercial career when
barely 15 years of age in the wholesale
grocery business, and aftewards engaged
in the cotton business
i ne war nreaKing out when he was
about 20 years of age, he joined the
Chasseurs a Pied, one of the lirst com
mands to leave this city for the then seat
of war, Pensacola, in April, lWd.
His career as a soldier was conspicuous
for his personal daring and bravery, not
unmixed with a fair share of romance,
and paying trie pi nalty of his venture
some spirit, he was three times badly
wounded, once in front of Richmond, at
the battle of Crazier rami, June ;t0,
j bo i, where ne was appointed color-
bearer of his battalion on the field by
the i olonei commanding. J he Mag tluu
entrusted to him, which he carried to
the end of the war, is the same battle
flag which was presented to St. Paul's
Battalion by General Longstreet to com
memorate their desperate charge at
Seven Pines, and which was after the
surrender at Apimmattox taken to a
place of safety in Richmond.
Alxmt l.HiOa meeting of the veterans
of the old command delegated Mr. Con
rad to go to Richmond and secure the
battered war emblem, which he did. and
after reporting to his old comrades in
arms he delivered the nag into the cus
tody of the Association of the Army of
northern irgtma. whicti lias unfurled
it in Memorial Hall, where it now hangs.
a silent and eloquent reminder of those
troublous times which brought it intoex-
istence.
At Sharpsburg (or Antietam) Septem
ber 10, 1801, he was a second time
wounded, and fell into the hands of the
Federals. After being exchanged and
before thoroughly recuperated from his
disabling wounds, we find him again in
the field of active duty with his com
mand in and about the historical Black
water, Southampton county, Va., and at
the battle of Belletield be was again
wounded.
Surrendering with the last forlorn
hope, after four years and several months
of actual active service, he resumed his
duties of citizenship to his native State,
relapsing into those peaceful pursuits in
winch he could serve his people most
beneficially. In 1807 he was elected As
sistant Secretary of the Finance Com
mittee of the City Council, where his
intelligent administration of the office
soon promoted him tothe Secretaryship.
With varying successes to himself
financially he thereafter engaged in va
rious commercial enterprises, until ot
lute years he acquired a home in the
town of Waveland, adjoining Bay St.
Louis, Miss., where his progressive spirit
and enlightened enterprise were soon
recognized, and he was elected and is
still serving as a Councilman of that cor
poration. His suggestions of progress
were soon adopted bv his new constitu-
ents.and some time ago he was called up
on to serve as President of the Gulf Coast
Ice and Manufacturing Company, which
is now affording such material comforts
to the denizens of that lively little town.
Many years ago he accepted a a ibal
tem poeition with the Louisiana Stat
Company, where his worth was
Boon recognized," and his promotion to
the internal direction of his office affairs
gradually followed, and which upon the
death of their late President, Dr. M. A.
Dauphin, culminated in his being chosen
President of that vast institution which
office he now holds with credit to himself
and advantage to the company.
He is also a Director in the Cherokee
Iron Manufacturing Company of Rusk,
Tex., which has sought the benefit of his
advice and experience, and altogether he
finds his time well taken up with the
administration of the affairs of others.
Yet with his multifarious duties he re
mains what he ever was, a true and loyal
friend and safe adviser, one upon whom
none who know him ever hesitate to en
truiit their most secret confidences.
His peculiar attributes are his un
swerving devotion to duty, his undeviat
ing punctuality and his lovalty to any
cause he may espouse. Xew Orhan
