 PRovNoETowN, Jan. 18.-A letter from Charleston received here to-day throws no new light on the fate of the crew of the bark Hattie N. Bungs, which was picked up aban- doned of Cape Lookout. It is considered very remarkable that the Bungs was found comparatively without injury with the sails set The most reasonable conjecture is that the vessel must have struck one of the many shoals that are to be found miles from the North and South Carolina coasts and that under the excitement of the moment the crew took to the boat which has been swamp ed, in which event all hands would be drowned Mrs. Atkins, wife of the captain, has for some time been of the belief that the vessel would be lost and that she would never see her husband again

Not Good For The Shipping Interests.
 NEW YORK, Jan. 18.-There was a special meeting of the chamber of commerce this afternoon to receive the report of a special committee recently appointed to consider two bills which were recently introduced in Congress by Hon. B. w. Harris. One of these bills is entitled bill to transfer the administration of the revenue cutter service to the Navy department, and the other is in- tended to establish bureau of mercantile marine in the Navy department. The cham Der of commerce committee reported in sub stance as follows: The committee, after full investigation of the subject, are unani.. mously of the opinion that it would be wise for Congress to take the proposed ac- tion in regard to the revenue cutter service, and that the proposed transfer of these i'm portant duties from the Treasury to the Navy department would cause much confu- sion and damage to the shipping interests of the country. The report of the committee was adopted and the secretary was instructed to prepare memorial to Congress express ing the views of the chamber of commerce in regard to the proposed legislation.

 Terrible Charge Against Religious
 Arrested for Ravtshing Seven-Year
 old Girl.
 BUFFALO, Jan. 1S-A terrible accusation has been made against Brother Frank, pres1- dent of St. Joseph's College Complaint was made Tuesday evening to Police Super intendent Shepard that Hattie Carr, seven years of age, residing in East Seneca street, had bsen enticed by somebody into the col lege, given some candy and then ravlshed. Detectives Donovan, Morin and Lyons promptly began an investigation and suspi- cion soon fell on Brother Frank. The little girl told straightforward story and some incidents tended to bear out her statement. She led the way to the room where the offense was committed and said to the detec- tive, ssHe gave me some candy which he took out of the drawer, ''-pointing to drawer in the cabinet in the room. The officer opened it and found some candy in the drawer. When taken to po- lice headquarters Brother Frank was told by the superintendent the nature of the of fence and that the police wanted his assistance in ferreting out the perpetrators. He mani fested great nervousness and wanted to know if the thing could not be suppressed or compromised. Subsequently the girl identified Brother Frank as the man who had assaulted her. The case was presented to the grand jury and after listening to the evidence that body this noon presented an indictment against Brother Frank or Thomas Waldron, as his baptismal name is said to be. Drs
 Dore McBeth and Armstrong; who examined Hattie established the fact that she had been
 assaulted. Drs. O'Brien, Mckay and other
 physicians this morning examined the pris-
 oner in the station where he was detained
 with view to definitely settling the sanity
 of the man, which was brought into question
 by his friends. Dr. O'Brien states that he
 Carr makes a statement corroborating that above given and another little girl identifies Brother Frank. Brother Justin, superior of the Order of Christian Brothers, arrived

He said this afternoon to United Press reporter II think it will appear manifest that Brother Frank is out of his mind He has 8 sister who was confined for some time in the Buffalo insane asylum, but is now out.

Duck breeding, when properly conducted,
is eminently remunerative much more so
than ordinary poultry, and there are but few
farmers who have not the facilities for sue
cessfully rearing them While a good sized
pond or stream of water, a natural one, is an
advantage, it is not an absolute necessity, for
small artificial ponds can readily be made
which will serve good purpose and not be
very expensive especially if the work be
done by the hands on the farm, and at slack
times when other work is not pressing These
ponds can be made convenient distance
from the barn and supplied from the pump
there, little work each morning at the pump
supplying all the fresh water that is daily re-
quired, provided the pond be so constructed
as to hold the water that is put into it. In
just such pond We have seen breeders rear
from 100 to 300 young ducks annually, and
with but little loss resulting from snakes, tur-
ties, etc, which latter lay tribute along the
creeks, runs and natural ponds
Ducks must have their liberty unrestricted
else they will not prove profitable, and they
must have plenty of grass to roam over. The
breeding flocks must be supplied with houses
and a small yard, and each one of tho flock
must be driven in at night and kept there un-
I'll ten o'clock next day, by which time they
will have laid their eggs and be ready for
their daily tramp through the grass and their
frolics in the water If this is not done
many eggs will be lost, falling a prey to the
crows and dogs, as ducks drop their eggs Just
when in the humor and wherever the fancy
takes them.
If the first clutch Of eggs is set under an
ordinary hen, and the ducks kept laying, two
fairly early broods can be secured each sea.
son, the ducks being permitted to hatch the
second brood themselves When the ducks
show signs of wanting to sit too early, pen
them for few days with young aud vigor-
GUS drake, and he will soon convince them
that broodiness is a bad business.
OF all the known breeds of ducks we do
not know of any which are more suitable for
general purposes, or which will return more
generous profit than will the famous Ayles-
