Capture Of Strange Beast in the Mid
die Pacific.

While the steamship Nevada was
about eighty miles off one of the minor
isles of Micronesia, on its way up from
Australia to this port, at about six O'Clock
in the morning, strange animal of a
dark figure was observed to light on the
highest peak of the forward mast. At
tracted by its peculiar appearance, the
officer of the deck, Mr.. Burnt, the second
mate, offered one of the sailors a small
bonus to secure it. The man clambered
up the mast with heavy cloth in his
hand, and, after slight struggle in which
he was severely bitten on the hand, it
was secured. Bringing it to the deck, on
examination the beast proved to be fine
specimen of species of the vampire
tribe. This animal closely resembles the
terrodactyl of the antediluvian ages. In
appearance it is like huge bat, on hasty
examination. 1t is in the head of the
animal, however, that the main distinc-
tion is found. That of the present one is
a perfect counterpart of the black and
tan terrier dog. Its teeth are over half
an inch in length, and are called in
constant requisition to discoun-
tenance all attempts at familiarity.
When flying the wings of this i'll
omened beast stretch, from tip to tip, at
least five times the diameter of the body.
1t is of deep jet black color, the body
being covered with heavy fur. 1t is
very savage, being constantly on the
alert to attack any person approaching it.
Whether this animal is full and perfect
vampire, whose feats of lulling man to
sleep with the waving fan motions of its
wing, while sucking in the victims very
heart blood, is yet a question, for, as yet,
it has not been examined by any scientific
man. Its appearance is, however
enough to suggest the truth of such a
horrible surmise. Be it as il may, the
little Micronasian island has always
borne weird and frightful reputation
among the native inhabitants of the ad-
joining ones. Strange stories of cannibal-
ism, tales of savage idolatrous practices,
poison valleys, ETC., are constantly con.
nected in their minds with its name, and
in the small matter of being possessed of
blood'imbibing vampires in addition to
all the other horrors, few of them would
think the matter extraordinary or the
least doubtful. San Francisco Alta.

A Novel SwindIing Device.

The fertilit y and ingenuity OF the pro-
fessional swindler has received another
illustration. Superintendent KelsO re-
ceived, on Saturday, from a resident of
Mattoon, Ill, letter inclosing a litho-
graphic circular which had been mailed
to him, and which is said to have been
successfully circulated among country
folks. The circular states that its author
bought 1900 yards of fine silk stolen
during the Boston fire; that he borrowed
$1OO upon 1T from pawnbroker, and
that his brother in Cuba had sent him
that amount to redeem the silk {:
but as he Is sick and afraid to
sell it in this city, he wants some
man to buy it at 25 cents yard and pay
for it at $50 per month. The circular,
which is accompanied by fictitious
pawn.ticket, is signed by David w. En-
gle of No. 100 Fourth avenue, whose pur-
pose appears in postscript. Therein he
adds that his wife has Just brought a
sample of the silk from the pawnbroker's,
which he incloses, and that $40 will be
required as interest. This amount he
cannot obtain, and the person receiving
the circular is requested to forward il and
deduct it from the first $50 paid
for the silk. Captain Irving and
Detective Dilks were detailed to
investigate the case, and upon going
to No. 100 Fourth avenue they
learned that the basement of that build
ing was hired some time ago by man
who only came there once a week to get
letters deposited by the postman in the
box. The detectives are now searching
for this MANY. y Tribune.

The AIrless Moon.

Among the illusions swept away by
modern science was the pleasant fancy
that the moon was habitable globe, like
the earth, its surface diversified with seas,
lakes, continents and islands, and varied
forms of vegetation. Theologians and
savans gravely discussed the probabilities
of its being inhabited by race of sentient
beings with forms and faculties like our
own, and even propounded schemes for
opening communication with them, in
case they existed. One of these was to
construct on the broad highlands of Asia
series of geometrical figures on a
scale so gigantic as to be visible from our
planetary neighbor, on the supposition
that the moon people would recognize the
object, and Immediately construct similar
figures in reply. Extravagant and alb.
surd as it may appear in the light Of mod
ern knowledge, the establishment of this
Terrestrial and Lunar Signal Service Bu-
reau was treated as a feasible scheme,
although practical difficulties, which SO
often keep men from making fools of
themselves, stood in the way of actual
experiment; but the discussion was kept
up at intervals, until it was discovered
that If there were people in the moon, they
must be able to live without breathing, or
eating, or drinking. Then it ceased
There can be no life without air. Beau
tlful to the eye of the distant observer,

world of death and silence. No vegeta-
ton clothes its vast plains of stony
desolation, traversed by monstrous crew.
asses, broken by enormous peaks that
rise like gigantic tohbstones into space;
no lovely forms of cloud float in the
blackness of its sky. There daytime is only
night lighted by rayless sun. There is
no rosy dawn in the morning, no twilight
in the evening. The nights are pitch
dark. In daytime the solar beams are
lost against the jagged ridges, the sharp
points of the rocks, or the steep sides of
profound abysses, and the eye sees only
grotesques shapes relieved against fantas-
tic shadows black as ink, with none of
that pleasant graduation and diffusion of
light, none of the subtle blending of light
and shadow which make the charm of a
terrestrial landscape. A faint conception
of the horrors of lunar day may be
formed from an illustration representing
a landscape taken in the moon in the CEN
ter of the mountainous region OF Aristar-
chus. There is no color, nothing but
dead white and black. The rocks reflect
passively the light of the sun; the craters
and abysses remain wrapped in shade;
fantastic peaks rise like phantoms in their
glacial cemetery; the stars appear like
spots in the blackness of space. The
moon is dead world; she has no atmo.
sphere. =" Earth and Air, 4" By s. s. OonGnt,

Warnings from the ScaifOld.

To "evil associations" and to the drink
ing OF intoxicating liquors nearly every
crime may be either directly or indirectly
traced. The. dying words of the two
murderers who were hanged yesterday
should be warning to all young men.
Osborne, who was hanged in Knox Coun.
ty, confessed that he belonged to an or.
ganized band Of thieves and desperadoes;
that he was at one time arrested and sent
to State Prison, and that to "evil associa-
tions" ne owed his ignominious end.
Here are his warning words;
I'm conclusion, will add, as a word OF advice
70 young men, that the bad things that have
done, as here stated, were brought on me by evil
associations; warn all young men against evil
company and Influences"
And Driver, who was executed in Chi
cago, is equally emphatic in attributing
his great crime to whisky. He declared (:
