A Burial by the Sea.

One morning, late in the year, SAWS n

when the chill eastern wind had brought
In from the ocean drifting banks of fog,
with now and then hiding sheets of rain,
on the edge OF n dreary stretch OF marsh
land by the sea, we came upon freshly
dug grave. Two or three head stones to
other graves near by told us that this was
no public cemetery, and only secluded
corner used by 1t owner to make such in
terment as best he could. All by itself,
1t was sad picture. and little but this
waste of sand and marsh could he seen.
Tor the gathering mists inwrapped the
mountain and the sea as in a ghostly
shroud; yet it was not complete, for ont
OF the aim distance there came two fig
ures bearing n small coffin between them,
which they placed by the side OF the
grave. The bearers were two men. whose
tanned and wrinkled faces bore evidence
OF lifelong exposure To wind and sun
and rain their oil-cloth caps and coats
were dripping with water, while about
their rough top-boots hung the long grass
and kelp cast up by the waves on the
rocks and beach. The poor pine coffin,
too, bore like evidence OF exposure. for
the water ran from Its sides, and the sand
gathered about the bottom showed that
the men must have rested in their toll
some journey. We saw all of this at
glance. and then looked in the direction
from whence they came. expecting to see
other forms, and those of women. ap-

said, and no sound was heard, save that

the body was consigned to its last resting
place. And then, perhaps it was the

known proposition to use the new motive
power for war purposes. This vessel was
to carry twenty guns on her deck, and to
make speed of four miles per hour. In
addition to her armament on deck. il was
intended that she should carry two sub-
marine guns one on each bow, so as to
strike an enemy below the er-lne. be-
sides this, provision was made for throw
ing large body of water npon an enemy
at close quarters. The ship was launched
November, 1914, in little more than
four months from the laying of the keel
by June, 1915. her machinery was
place, and trial trip took place in New
York bay, which was a great success. At
a late period she ma lie trip to sea. about
twenty-six miles from New York, and with
all her coal and armament on board at
talned speed of nearly six knots. This
formidable craft was named bv her pro-
prietor the Domolopos, but after lis death
she was called the FGlton: she was used
as receiving ship at the New York Navy
Yard after her completion until 1890,
when she was accidentally blown M bv

kidnapping In Mexico.

Great excitement prevails in the City
Of Mexico on account oi the immens,

who demand heavy ransoms TO restore
the captured persons. All the available

for subsistence. Cervantes had beeu
kidnapped in the night by five men
while he VS. returning in n carriage
with his fami from the hotel to his res

found in the house which confirm the
existence of a secret society OF criminals
of all nations, with the title OF "Itdia

MS the "Sociedad Terrible" Three of
the five kidnappers of Cervantes were
arrested They were the Spaniard5 Ri
cardo Bello, aged twenty-five years. aud
Gumersindo Nunez, aged eighteen years
and Mexican named Jose Maria Orta,
aged twenty-five years. They confessed
their guilt. and stated that the society
was organized outside of the Republic !
of Mexico, and that the same ga g bad !
committed numerous similar acts. The
three prisoners were executed in San |
Lucas square the same evening IN the |
presence of an immense coucourse of |
people.
In the pocket of one of the prisoners
was found ii list of forty persons to be
kidnapped. A rigorous warfare has
been started against the organization,
which is intended to destroy it. The
