With a crash, masts and spars and a
rending of timbers that could be heard
blocks away, the big steel four-masted
French bark Asie capsized, toppling over
on Davidge’s dock, Portland, on Tues
day morning at 8:25, and came near
carrying the dock away and sinking. No
lives were lost and only one man, a
longshoreman,named Charles Rosenthal,
was injured. His injuries are not serious
and consist of a small contusion on the
head and a sprained leg The captain’s
wife was rescued from the vessel with
difficulty, and was taken ashore in a
small boat. The dock upon which the
Asie rests is a frail structure, and may
carry away any moment, in which event
the vessel will go down. Captain
Olivatid, master of the Asie. was not
aboard when the accident occurred. An
effort will be made at once to right the
vessel.

Traveling by sledge in Siberia in win
ter has its perils, as the experience of
.Mr. Robert L. .Jefferson and his friends
goes to illust rate. The incident is told
in "Roughing it in Siberia.”
"We had chartered six sorry-look-
ing horses to drag us on to the next
rtage. It was night when we started.
The driver, maudlin drunk, had to be
helped to his seat, and we set off along
the narrow roadway at the usual gal
lop. which, however, soon dwindled
into a mere shuffle through the snow.
We had gone to sleep, and some hours
after aur departure Gaskell woke me
and said he thought something was
w rong.
"The sledge was at a standstill and
our shouts to the yemshik brought nc
response. Black darkness prevailed.
I bundled out of ihe sledge, so be
numbed that I could scarcely move. 1
felt along the sledge, sinking to my
knees in the snow.
"The driver’s perch was empty; and
just then I stumbled over one of the
horses, which was lying buried up tc
its neck. It was clear that the driver
had fallen from his seat, and that tlie
horses had wandered from the track.
The poor beasts were stuck fast, and a
closer inspection showed one of them
to be dead — literally frozen to d-ath.
It we would save ourselves from the
same fate, prompt action was neces
sary.
"Ihe other horses were nearly suc
cumbing. They lay flat on their stom
achs and nibbled at the snow. W'e cut
the dead animal adrift, and using the
spare rope as whips, we stood on either
side of the living and lashed them till
our arms ached.
At length they
moved, and by pushing and pulling we
got the sledge turned. Then, step by
step, with much floundering and many
falls, we began to retrace our way.
"All this in pitch darkness, in a raw
cold wind, and in momentary expecta
tion of one or all of the horses drop
ping dead.
"It was a terrible experience, but we
regained the road and finally reached
the village."

Capt. Cornish, of the Uintah and

8,000.000 acres of land to the United
States under a treaty of 1880 in consid

required that the land should be sub

to find that these had been appro

to serve as food for her future brood;

BEGGARS GAIN WEALTH.
The wealthiest known living profes
sional beggar, Simon Oppusich, an Aus
trian, was born without feet or hands,
and sympathy for his infirmities
brought him a large fortune in the
shape of alms. In IStiO, when he was 17
years old, he had saved £ 12,000, and in
1888 he had increased his fortune by
speculation to £25.(MX) in cash and
about £40,000 in Trieste and Parenzo
i states. Since then he Lus quadrupled
his wealth by speculation on the
bourse, says the London Mail.
When Tori, well-known Italian beg
gar, died last year, bank books, securi
ties, gold and silver and other articles,
to the value of upward of £ 80,000, w^ere
found in his rooms. His heirs were two
nephews, who had been existing in a
state of miserable poverty for years.
A beggar who died in Auxerre,
France, in 1805. wal found to hive
bonds to the value of 1.000,000 francs
in an old trunk and 400 bottles of wine
of the vintage of 1790.
The French seem to be a generous
nation, for in the same year an old
woman, who lived in a vA tched garret
in the Rue de Sevres. Paris, died, leav
ing government securities representing
un annual income of £21, all made by
begging.
A beggar named Gustave Marcelin.
of Avignon, died in November. 1892. and
left £20,000 in French government
bonds, to l»e divided equally between
