The Dead Commander.

The lighthouse steamer Man
zanita, with the body of the late
Commander e. J. McDougal, who
was drowned off cape Mendocino
March 2Sth, was detained at Hum
boldt by rough weather, but has
probably reached San Francisco
before this. The body will be trans
ferred to Mare island, where it will
be inferred with appropriate cere-
monies. Details of the death of
Commander McDougal report that,
being at cape Mendiocino Sunday
night, Captain McDougal decided
TO land on the following morning
If everything was favorable. AT
half-past seven o'clock on Monday
morning the boat was lowered and
Captain McDougal, Captain Kortz,
Mr.. Butler, of the Argonaut, and
SIX seamen started for the shore.
The boat carried a surf-line, which
was anchored outside the outer
line of breakers. When between
the outer AND inner line an extra
and unexpected sea swamped the
boat, throwing all the occupants
out. Five of them, who clung to
the boat, reached the shore. in
safety. Captain McDougal, when
last seen, was within thirty yards
of the beach, where he went down
for the last time before aid from
the shore could reach him. Captain
Kortz, after being in the water
forty-fve minutes, reached the
shore in an unconscious condition,
and was taken to the Ocean house,
where by prompt and skillful at
tention he was resuscitated. Mr..
Butler and Gus. Peterson, a sailor,
were seen but once after the boar
swamped. Their bodies had not
been recovered at last accounts.

The Memphis custom House.

Memphis Appeal: Work has
been suspended again on the custom
house, owing to the failure Of the
contractors to supply the necessary
amount Of cut stone. there not being
at present on the grounds a suffi-
cient amount to put up even three
layers on the second story, and, ins
deed, maIy of the stones for the first
layer are not ready. On the last Of
March not over $500 feet Of stone
were ready, although according to
contract at least $4,000 feet Of stone
Should have been On hand. This is
the cause of delay, and the entire
blame rests with the stone contracts
ors, who have failed to get out suf-
fcient amount of marble at the East
Tennessee quarries, and in conse-
quence have also failed to have the
necessary amount cut and dressed on
the grounds here. 1t will probably De
several months before work will De
resumed on the building. In the
meantime the stone contractor and
the man who was laying the stone
have gone to Washington to talk
matters over with the supervising
architect, and, if possible, avoid tbs
penalties stated in the contract fol
failures to meet its provisions.

Give the Boys a Chance.

The average boy is gregarious ami
NAL. He abhors solitude and delights
in the company of his fellows, though
he may receive from them nothing but
kicks, hard knocks and personal abuse.
Still the spirit within him leads him to
seek this congenial society upon every
possible occasion, and to enjoy it he
braves parental anger, hunger, cold
and darkness. Just why this is so is
one of those mysteries which the light
of science has failed to illumine.
The wise parent should take advant-
age Of this natural desire for companion
ship. and so regulate boyish intercourse
as to satisfy this innate desire, keeping
the manner and extent under complete
control. 1t is useless to say that "my
children have been taught to obey
without question" The heart of man
is deceitful and desperately wicked, and
we do not think boy-nature differs from
man-nature, except in intensity of de-
sire and determination. The love of
companonship is harmless, because it
is natural, and any endeavor to unduly
circumscribe or suppress this desire will
surely result in defeat and modification
Many parents attempt to isolate their
children from the society of others, hop
ing thereby to wean the youthful
mind from the frivolities of adol-
escence and make them prema-
turely stad and sober as they
are themselves. Such a course may
seem to be successful, but some fine
morning the father awakens to the fact
that he has lost a boy. The spirit OF
rebellion within the lad has caused him
to forsake home and kindred to mix
with the stirring hustle of the world, to
carve for himself fortune and fame.
If parents would sometimes remem-
Der that they were once young; if they
would look backwards throughthe mists
of past years and recall their own long
ings and suppressed desires, they would
better understand and appreciate the
feelings of their children, and would
endeavor, on every possible occasion,
to crafty their desires for the compan-
ionship of those of their own age; there
would be no grumbling or scolding, no
cuffs and rebuffs, if there should be oc-
casional outbursts of boy-nature that
make the welkin ring, and drown, for
the moment, all other sounds. Do not,
we entreat, attempt to restrain or re-
strict. Let nature have full vent. 1t
may not be amiss to aid and encourage
by your own example.
Something of this kind must be done,
or the boys will be stealing down the
back stairs, and out at the side door at
unreasonable hours and for questionable
purposes. If they are denied these in
nocent pleasures they will find ways and
means of gratifying their desires, and in
the enjoyment of stolen sweets they lose
the sweetness of innocence. Planter s

The Harvard Crimson tells the fol

college. As they passed each other, the
old gentleman asked, seemingly in jest,

named 100000. His host excused him
self for a moment, and soon returned to
the room with papers which gave $780,
