There was a remarkable similarity be- tween the fate of Admiral Tryon, who perished when the Victoria. went down, and that of Captain Hugh Burgoyne, the commander of the Captain when she was lost. Private dispatches received in Eng- land say that the admiral commanded his men to save themselves, but refused to save his own life. When the Captain capsized and after struggling to right herself finally turned over completely, floating with her keel uppermost, Cap- tain Burgoyne, Mr. May, the gunner, and a seam-an named Heard reached the :pinnace. The ship almost immediately disappeared, but her second launch, with ' 10 men on board, came alongside the ;;pinnace. ' A sudden lurch separated the two fboats before Captain Burgoyne and Heard 'had time to board the launch. The sailor took his commander by the hand and proposed to jump. “Save your own life, my man,” Captain Bur- goyne replied. The boats separated more and more, and Heard exclaimed, “Will you come of not, sir?” Burgoyne answered: “Jump and save yourself. I :shall not forget you some day.” ’ The sailor leaped and finally reached the launch, but the captain was not again seen. . He was a descendant of Sir John Bur- goyne of the Revolution and the only son of the then constable of the tower. another Sir John. Admiral ’Tryon was regarded as England’s chief defender._ and Burgoyne Was a skillful and braVe officer. It is a singular fact that the two officers served together as lieuten- ants in the trenches before Sebastopol, being at the time attached to the land . b- . serv1ce.—Buifalo Conner. Kept His Wife In ;. Trunk. The ofiense known in this Country as sequestration, or private imprisonment, is far from uncommon. only the other day a whole family was brought up for trial on a charge of keeping an idiot youth in an iron cage until he had lost all his physical as well as his mental faculties, and ’a similar case is now. reported from Evreux, in, Normandy. The. authorities of the village of Neu- bourg were advised recently by anony- mous letter that a peasant named Le- huby was “sequestrating” his wife.. The gendarmes presented themselves at Lehuby’s house and asked'to see his wife. This request” being refused, they proceeded to search the place from the cellar to the granary, and having found no trace of the woman Were abdut to withdraw when one of them discovered a large trunk and asked for the key. On the case being opened the figure of Mme. Lehuby suddenly jumped up like. a jack in the box, and she explained to the ' gendarmes that her husband would not allow her to go out and that whenever he left the house he left her locked-up in the box,where she could scarcely . reathe. Lehuby was at once arrested and will be tried for “amateur imprisonment.”— Paris Cor. London Telegraph. Objects of the Peary Expedition. The chief objects of the Peary expedi- tion include a careful examination of the detached land masses which are known to lie to the north of Greenland, and which have been seen on previous expe- ditions, not only by Lieutenant Peary, but also by Lockwood and Brainard, little or nothing being at present known of their exteut‘and general character, and the delimitation of a considerable por- tion of the east coast of Greenland, ex- tending from Independence bay about 300 miles south to Cape Bismarck. This portion of the coast has never been ex- plored, although it was seen from ves- sels coasting in that vicinity about 200 years ago. He also intends to ascertain the transverse profile of Greenland along or near the seventy-seventh parallel from Cape Bismarck to Inglefield'gulf. Along this line Greenland is about 350 miles wide. Incidentally he will also con- tinue the study of the arctic highland- ers, a tribe of people who live in the highest latitudes known to be frequented by any people in the world—Brooklyn Eagle. ' , A Welcome Ready For Bermuda. We confess that the proposal of The Sun that Bermuda join us is a fascinat- ing one. Why, indeed, should we not annex Bermuda? It is scarcelyfarther from New York than is Detroit or Hali- fax. The peeple are desirable. Less than half of t m are white, to be sure, but three-f0 ha of the whole population are worthy Episcopalians. An annual budget of $150,000 provides government for these people now, and their, debt is a mere bagatelle. , Already most of Ber- muda’s business is with the. UnitedStates, and our people make up the bulk of the winter pleasure travel. We are frank to concede that if, Bermuda suggests annex-' ation a great many of us will take OE our hats and cheer.—New York Com— mercial Advertiser. We E K ,Y L an OItWALK GA 2 ET T E . A Girl Battles With Rattlers. While we are telling snake stories the following good one comes to us from the mountain region. Mr. E. T. Dulin stand-7 ing as authority: The country around Little Big Black mountain is a ginseng region, and the Parker family are noted as “sengers.” The girls go out barefooted in the mountains, though the country is infested with rattlesnakes and copper- heads, and dig the ginseng, for which they get good prices at the stores, from which it is taken to Pennington gap for shipment. . But along Clover gap and up Rattle- snake creek there are numberless rep- tiles. Beckie Parker is a good girl, about 19 years of age, strong, healthy looking and handsome, but with a very deter- mined face. She is a splendid shot and often takes her Winchester. . She goes after ginseng barefooted and often alone. The roots are gathered in May and September, and during the month just passed she did a thriving business. One day, however, she came across a den of rattlesnakes. She had only stones and sticks with which to fight the desperate battle. Some of the snakes were larger than a man’s arm and a few of them as large as the calf of a man’s leg. For hours she fought them as they hissed and writhed and rattled around her. But the brave, determined girl battled with them until she killed every one that did not succeed in hiding among the crevices of rocks and in the dense undergrowth. When she had crushed the last one to be seen, she count- ed the dead, and there were just 63.— Fredericksburg Star. Treed Their Man, but He Got Away Easily. The residents of Chester county had a man hunt the other day. . The object of the hunt was Wesley Mitchell, a colored character, who had spread much terror among the Chester countyans, and who is wanted by both the Delaware and Maryland authorities. The entire neigh- borhood turned out to hunt the would be murderer downhbut Mitchell was too quick for them. He speedily scaled the tallest tree in the forest, and in spite of all the pursuers could do he sat there like a wild beast viewing the scene be- low. ? Constable Strode of West Grove and Oflicer Grace of Kennett Square, the lead- ers of the band in pursuit of the assail- ant, concluded that Mitchell w'ould come down if an attempt was made to dis- lodge him by felling the tree, but they were mistaken. The tall timber was completely out down before Mitchell budged, and then he carefully rode down on the fallen tree and bolted far into the forest. The hunters were dumfounded. They expected to see him instantly killed by the falling tree. He quickly swam a small stream on the edge of the forest and in a few: minutes was entirely lost to his pursuers.-—Wilmington Cor. Bal- timore American. . The Crowds In the Midway. Referring to the crowds in Midway plaisance in Jackson park, 3. correspond- ent "writes to the Paris Figaro: “They move along like a procession of Quakers. They have no jokes, no frolics, no shouts, no fun. The dead silence that marks their promenade makes one think of the processions -of the pupils of some deaf and dumb institution,” etc. . "This is not strictly true—not so truth ful as it would be for us to say that the Parisian idea of fun and frolic invOIVes barricades, riots, murder, arson and. queen killing. ‘We are grateful for serviceable sug- gestions,, but we must beg to be excused from practicing that kind of sport which appears to be so popular in Paris and which has made Paris infamous in his- tory. We are proud that we have re— mained, in spite of all temptations, so Quakerish as to regard with horror the lewd fun, the lubricious jokes, the bawdy shouts and the licentious frolics which the correspondent of Figaro ruefully fails to find among us.—Eugene Field in Chi- cago N ewe-Record. A New Prophet and Mystic In Kief. A new sect whose prophet is a certain peasant called Kondrati is making ex- traordinary progress in the provinces of Kief and Poltava. Kondrati is a. man of considerable power as a speaker, but who was at one time confined in a lu- natic asylum. He was ’ arrested some time ago and sent to Transcaucasia, but his followers are most energetic apostles and continue to propagate Kondratism. Their principle tenet is that all men are as Christ was, and in exactly the same way sons of God when they have been touched by the Spirit. The plain- ost facts and statements in Scripture are interpreted in a mystical spirit. There is also a tendency to free love among them, but as the last statement is vouch- ed for only by the Russian clergy it may have no foundation. The Kondratists already number 7 ,000.—Christian World. Our Recent Statues. Any foreigner who intends writing his impressions of the United Statesshould not fail to notice our statues and in the case of the two erected Fourth of July in New England he should certainly find room to say something. At Newbury- port the figure of Garrison inbronze was uncovered, and at Bridgeport that of Barnum. The ordinary foreigner would have a mental struggle to comprehend why the two cities should select such different subjects for memory and honor, but nevertheless any schoolboy could explain the whole matter, though we doubt if the foreigner would be wiser even with an explanation from our most eniightened citizens.—-Providence Jour- na. .

V “People who are fond of going to inter- national exhibitions can go to lots of them within the next seven-V or eight years. Inabout seven months fromthis time, or on theist of. April, there 'is: to be opened at Madrid, underthe auspices of. theSpanish'government, a show bear- - ing the official title of “The Universal International Exposition,“ the managers, of which have already given notice that they are prepared to receive exhibits from all countries, including the United States. It is to be held in the Palace of Industry and its annexes and will be kept open for eight months. Then, three years afterward, or in 1897, the Turkish government is to. hold a grand international exhibition in Con- stantinople, if things can be got ready for it and if the Russians do not get down to the Golden Horn by that time. It is reported from there that Sultan Abdul Hamid. II, who is an enlightened and progressive monarch, desires that the world shall be made acquaintedwith Turkey’s power, and that the Turks shall obtain an understanding of the re- sources of other countries, so that thus benefits may accrue to his own subjects and the rest of mankind. We must hope that this project will not be interfered with. The Turkish exhibition in Con- stantinople will very certainly be worth seeing, and it is but a short trip from this country to the Bosporus. . After some other shows of lesser im- portance we shall arrive at the universal exposition in Paris in the year 1900, for which the French government is already making preparations. That will pretty certainly attract visitors from all parts of the earth. _ In the course of time, or let us say very soon after the opening of the twen- tieth century, you will perhaps see an exhibition here in New York, compared with which all previous exhibitions will appear trivial-New York Sun. A Touching Ceremony. - Our Paris correspondent reports that a very touching ceremony took place re cently at Battilly on the Franco-German frontier. A German contingent came to reclaim a. handful of their dead of the Prussian guard, who fell in the war of 1870. Their dead were delivered up to them and were carried with every mark of respect from the representatives of both armies to a monument on the Ger— man side, within which they were to find their final rest. V The French troops formed in hollow square, while German and French chap- lains delivered orations on the heroism of victors and vanquished. The troops presented. arms, and there came a mo- ment of the deepest significance when the German soldiers stood facing the French soldiers in the salute, and the German and the French generals in ad— vance stood looking right into each othé er's eyes. They had not seen each other so close with weapons in their hands since they parted from the death grip which cost France her provinces. This time of course they met and they parted asfriends, yet not without a grim sug- gestion of the possibility of their future meeting in the old character.—-London News. , His Wedding Night In J all. That amusing scene in the “Chapeau . de Pail-led’Italie," in which the members ‘offa'wedding party are .ignominiously locked up, is frequently repeated here in, real life. A journeyman painter and dec- orator, who had married ayoung woman emplOyed as a fruit vendor in the Rue fClignancourt, was returning home with his bride and friends when a. band of noc- ’ tip-pal prowlers delivered a determined attack on the party. The bridegroom was knocked down by the aggressors, and the bride slipped and fell. The battle raged furiously in the. dark for several minutes, and the arrival of the police, in- stead of settling matters in the proper manner, only made them worse. Inthe general scuffle the real culprits escaped, andthe police, exasperated by the blows . received by them, and not knowing who struck them in the obscurity, arrested the bridegroom, and despite his protests carried him OH to the lockup. There he had topass the night and was only re- stored to his disconsolate better half the next morning—Paris Letter. . A Poet’s Life Tragedy. The English papers lately have" been full of a very romantic tragedy, which castsa lurid light on literary ambition, as the victim was a poet. A Mr. Stoer and his wife were found dead ina wood, and the coroner’s jury found that the man committed suicide after killing his wife. It appears that the couple had re- solved to die together if fortune did not mend. The girl wife. came from Ger- many for the purpose. It seems that Mr. Stoer was a writer of poems and tragedies which did not meet with suc- cess. In a. letter left for the public he says he was killed by “this so called practical generation,” adding that “ge- nius without means or influential friends,- without worldly goods or selfish folk in- terested in promoting its welfare, per: ishes like a flower by the wayside, seen by few, observed by none and covered by the dust of passing ignorance and perversion.” . Objections to Endeavor-en. The members of the homeland power- ful organization which held a big con- vention in this city last July and has just been holding another in Montreal ought not to call themselves “Endeavor- ers.” It is not a good . or a euphonious ' derivative. If the principal noun in the name of their society were “effort” or “exertion,” would they feel justified in terming themselves “efiorters” or “exer- tioners?” The circumstance that the. word referred to is convenient is not}; good reason for employing it. It would be still worse, though, if as arsubstitute for it they shoulddnvent such an abomi- hation as “Endeav6rists.”—New York Tribune. A Now non-nu Horror.
