The story of Arnold's treacheTy and fall is sue
cinctly but vigorously related in narrative of re-
markabe interest, in which the motives of his con-
duct are freely discussed, and, with apology for
his crime the circumstances which may be pleaded
in its extenuation are impartially set forth. The
remainder of Arnolds life presents only tragic
aud pitiable spectacle. He took up arms against
his country, but added nothing TO his military rep
utatiOn. lie had staked every thug on his infamous
experiment. and had lost everything in the game.
After more than twenty wears of a dIsgraceful and
miserable existence, his strong physique and
hardy frame began to break up. and he died in
London the 14th of June, 1901. at the age
Of sixty years. Until the time of his great treason,
Arnold had been the intimate friend OF Washington,
who reposed equal confidence In his ability and his
patriotism. But there never was greater tras
than in the personal character of tue two men.
Washington, with his sedate. unimpassOned nature
will be revered throughout the ages the model of
integrity, self-cOntTol. and sel-forgetfuuess Ar
mold, with his dash, parade and dramatic pomp Of
action will be execraied "A loathsome example of
the want OF principle eliminating in hdeous

Stung to Death by Hornets.

An Eogle reporter drove to the home
of the grandfather of young TillsOn
Jewell, who was stung to death by hOr-
nets at HYDE Park. The body was in
an ice-box, and the face bore u natural
appearance, except the lips, which were
badly swollen, and there were purple
spots about the neck. 80,

down and ran through the barn. ask
ed him what was the matter; he put
bis hands to his head, and said he was
stung by the bees. | brought him to
the house and he lay down on the lounge
Mrs. Tillson and myself got salt and
water and bathed him, but his tongue
swelled quickly, and his ears and lips
turned purple. As he laid down he
frothed at the mouth and said: 81 am
very sick at my stomach We asked
him if we should send for the doctor,
but he could not speak; he closed his
eyes right away, and Mr.. 1IllsOn went
right off on horseback for DR.. Hopkins,
but the boy never spoke afterward. His
pulse would throb minute, then stop,
then throb again; and he died in about
half an hour. We examined his head,
and found a red spot on the temple,
where he had been stung, and there were
other spots. DIR. Hopkins said he was
poisoned by the stings the same as q
rattlesnake pOisons."
The hired man said he went to the
apple-tree afterward and found large
hornets nest in it. When the boy went
up the tree he was bare headed. None
of the household thought he was serious
w hurt when he ran toward the barn.
His greatest pain seemed to be in the
back of his neck.-POughkeepsie On. ~

Dangers OF Salmon Fishing.

A correspondent writing from the
mouth of the Columbia River says:
The salmon fishing extends down as far
as this, quiet a number of fishermen
making this their base of operations.
The fish just now are running quite
freely, one man the other night having
caught 16S salmon. This, at 80 cents
per salmon, was good nights work,
but they seldom do so well, 100 being
considered very large catch, and about
Is or 40 being the usual result of nights
fishing. tits dangerous and hard way
to make money. Quite number OF

season, and some boats and lives lost

of boat with two men that came
through the surf on the weather beach q
few weeks ago opposite his house, about
three miles north Of the bar. Their
boat had been swept outside the bar and
swamped, filling with water; their oars
were lost and the sail also; fortunately
they had their net with them which they
took and managed to work it under
their boat, owing to the floats or cOrks
belonging to it having so much lifting
power. They were'then able to bail out
their boat and Chamber into it again /;

good fortune they managed to come

The Great Swimming Match Between
Webb and BOytOI.

NEWPORT, Il. l.. August 22.-The
swimming match between the noted
swimmers Captain Paul BOytOn and
Captain Matthew Webb began at ,
O'Clock this morning off EaStOn' : Beach
The buoys, around which the men swan
in mile courses, We're placed rs follows:
First, near the west side of the beach,
almost directly opposite the Chandler
| Villa, which is occupied by James Cor
don Bennett; second, nearly opposite
the Forty Steps, ut the foot of Maria
ganSett Avenue. Thus the swimming
was in plain view of great crowds as
sembled on the beach and along the
cliffs. Captain Webb wore bathing
tights and tirm-ftting blue cap. Cap
tain BOvtOn was dressed in his famous
rubber suit. The swimmers kept at
work steadily up to 1880 O'Clock, when
miShap occurred which threatened to
end the race.
Bovton had made ten miles and Webb
eight and a quarter, when the latter was
seized with violent cramps, rendering
both legs powerleSs. He was taken from
the water by his trainer and put on
board the yacht Active, remaining ont
of the water an hour and half. He
began to swim again at II 40, and gain
ed rapidly on Boyton. Capt. Webb's
/ trainer attributes the attack to the fact
of his not being acclimated. When
Webb succumbed, the men had been in
the water seven hours, and the strong
/ breeze, which had been blowing from
/ the southwest, made swimming against
the wind both slow and difficult.
At 6 O'Clock Boyton had made nine
/ teen miles and was looking somewhat
/ tired from the labor of the day. At I
O'Clock he had made his twentieth mile,
and was feeling his way along slowly.
Heavy bets were made that he would
not cover twenty-five miles by y O'Clock
tonight. Boyton, however, finished his
race at II :O7 p. m. The first person to
meet and congratulate him upon his
/ success was James Gordon Bennett. In
accordance with the articles of agree
ment, Webb was out of the race the mo-
ment he left the water to 90 on board
the yacht. There were immense crowds
of spectators on the beach to day, and
the city wore holiday appearance.

Another Personal PrOnOun Wanted.

At recent meeting of the philolo-
gists in Newport some wise words were
said in regard to the superiority OF the
English tongue in the matter OF gender
over those languages where all things,
inanimate as well as animate, are en-
dowed with sex distinction, thereby ne
cesSitating corresponding bisexual forms
to articles, adjectives, &c. Yes, our
language has the bulge on these others,
but step further would fill a want long
felt. We allude to the crying necessity
of having pronoun that will apply
equally to either sex, in place of the in
flexible she" and "she, " % his " and
her" of our present speech. This
may be considered by some persons Il
vain longing, but it is not so. For in

Catching Fish by Steam.

\ Clinton O.. l.. correspondent of
the Hartford Times says: 1.-The fish
oil business is done now, so far as the
first stage is concerned-the work of
catching the bony fish by steam
power. 1t is fact. The fish are not
only ground up and then squeezed by
steam-power, but actually caught by
steam. 4 large fleet of steamers is en-
gagged in the work. | counted half a
dozen yesterday while sailing a few
miles out from shore-all hard at it out
in the middle of the Sound. First they
let down a bic net. This is so rugged
with a 'pucker-string As to be easily
drawn together at the top, like the old
hand 'work-bags of our grandmothers ;
and when there is good haul of fish
a. there almost always is, for the white
fish. moss-bunke or bony-fiSh, as it is
variously called, fairly swarm i'll Long
Island Sound, and have in some sea-
sons seen hauls of 100000, and even
400, 000-the great net made, as it must
be, of the strongest material, is closed
and hauled to the steamer, and there
opened and emptied. The emptying or
transferring of the tumbling and flop
ping mass of fish is effected by means
of a big iron scoop, which shuts and
opens like that of harbOr and river
mud-digger. 1t is worked by steam,
and the process makes Il whirring noise
which is audible, in still weather, at Il
distance of two or three miles. As the
scoop rises with its finny load, the water
flies out in a fountain, visible afar. Its
opening and emptying can be readily
understood by any one who has observed
a mud-digger.
d" Greenport, Mantle, and various 9th
er places have their steam fleets. These
meet in favorable spots on the Sound,
where the fish swarm, for the passing
hour, in millions, and 90 busily to work
making a curious and picturesque feature
in the ever-shifting panorama of the
Sound. What is done with all this oil
know not. Certain it is that some of it
IS used to adulterate better article, or
rather to take its place, under false pre-
lenses, in various articles for mechan-
zeal use. rs well as TO tan leather, for
which purpose it is said to be good. Two
cargoes, at least, have lately been ship
ped to EUROPE believe 10 England.
The vessels were loaded at one OF these
big mills, which one going to Sag Har-
Dor from New London always wishes to
keep to leeward, few miles this side OF
Greenport. The squeezed out fish, after
the oil has been extracted, is still useful
1t is sold for manure, to be used on corn
fields and other crops, and if its fertillz-
ing qualities bear any proportion to Its
odoriferous capacities-as illustrated on
many hard-fought field-it ought tc
produce some bic crops

Running a SHOTGUN Quarantine.

The Memphis Aralanchc of the 10th
says: Messrs. Charles Quentel, Jr.,
and Henry Quentel, with their wives
and several compdgaonS d,t rogdqr, left
town Yesterday in carriages, with the
intention of taking the Louisville and
Nashville train at Bartlett, and depart
inc for more salubrious cline. Every
thing went well until the party neared
Bartlett; not single murderous quar-
antine guard was met with, and hope,
that springs eternal in the human breast,
lent an additional charm to the beauties
of nature so lavishly displayed on every
hand. But, as some one, probably Mark
Twain, has said, "All that's bright
must fade.n On reaching the bridge
this side of Bartlett, a solitary horseman
bearing the typical shotgun was seen,
not approaching, but mmOvably fixed
in the road. When the party drove up,
this party of the first part halted
them.
You can't pass said he, with he
role irmness. of
Wherefore? was asked.
"Beeause you can't" was the re-
Spouse.
" WelI, but we WILL
"If you do it will be with load in
you"
"If you draw that gun, you'll be de-
stroyed without remedy" replied one
of the travellers. He drove on; the rest
followed. He got no load in him.
When Bartlett was reached, the train
was still there, and the refugees were
beginning to lay the fiattering JUNCTION
to their souls that all would vet be well,
when suddenly a committee appeared
| barring the way. They said, THUS
| far, and no farther" Twas vain to
speak, to weep, to sigh-the incorrupti-
| BILE guardians of the Bartlett health were
not to be moved.
They said, however: alt you'll 90 on
to Bonds station (six miles further on),
you can get aboard the train there"
| and with this the refugees were forced
to be content. Then they asked the
conductor to take their baggage on
there. He said, eff | do they will elm
mate me from off the face of the earth"
So they went on to Bonds Station and
waited for the train. 1t camealong and
was duly signaled, but passed on with
out stopping. The conductor, however,
had not forgotten them. He called all
| the passengers to the window of the car,
and exhibited the forlorn Memphians.
The scene was enjoyed by all present,
with a few exceptions. The "left "
then tried to get quarters in the country
until tomorrow, when they hoped to
get a train, but the inhabitants declared
they wouldn't take them in if there was
millions in it. This was the last straw,
and the bright hopes that animated the
party in the morning had been succeed
ed by the bitterness of despair. Men,
phis was now the only place remaining
open to them, and to Memphis they re-
turned, arriving yesterday evening i'm
bued with monumental disgust at
country quarantine.

Cheap Gas.

A new era is dawning. A gas COM
pany exists in Philadelphia which has
offered to supply that city with gas at so
cents for a thousand cubic feet. There
will be no humbug about the matter.
The gas is to be good, consisting "chiefy
Of hydrogen, and not of carbonic oxide. :"
The only stipulation made is that the ar
rangement shall be upon business ba-
sis, without any intermixture if politics. !"
The formation of the gas is accom-
plished by means of the Z" Gill process. =
Nearly pure hydrogen can be produced,
it is claimed, by superheated steam act
in0upon incandescent coal. By adding a
small amount of carbon in yaPor, the
best Illuminating gas, both for brllllaney
and uniformity, can be produced, while
the expense is very small, as four gal
Ions of naptha and % pounds of coal,
whose combined cost is only ~ cents,
will make 900 cubic feet. There will
be no deposits of lampblack, and % no
tar in the retorts or elsewhere neither
will there be any offensive odor in the
process of manufacture.-Toledo Blade

is low estimate, then, which places
the French demand for wheat at 100,-
100000 bushels. The rest of Europe
win probably need $1,000, 900 more, but
may need less. The food supply of n
continent is not thing easily reduced
to figures. Moderate estimates, howev-
er, place the demand at larger figure
than the amount of the probable surplus
in this country. 1t will probably all be
needed, but it is not likely that it will be
called for at high prices. This is the
present outlook. Very trifling causes
may change the existing condition of
affairs in favor of high prices. One
thing is certain: no crop of wheat ever
harvested in this country will be carried
to market more cheaply, and none,
therefore, will leave a larger margin of
profit in the hands of farmers.
