Imprisoned in Capsizcd Coastine
Vessel.

The strange imprisonment of poor
Donaldson, says the New York
Times, under the State of FIorida's
capsized boat has had several paraIl-
els in the history of modern ship
wrecks, the most remarkable of
which was an occurrence that took
place off the Sicily Islands some
years ago. A small coasting vessel
was capsized by a squat in the open
sea, all the crew perishing except
the mate and four men, who happen
ed to be below at the time. The
latter, cooped up in utter darkness
without food or water, fiOated about
in the inverted vessel for two days
and two nights, expecting death
every moment. Had not two of the
men, who still retained some pres
ence of mind, succeeded in beating
in partition, and thus charging
their space, they must all have been
stified. The mate, in his despcra-
ton, tried to cut through the ships
planking with his knife, but the
blade broke before he could sue
ceed-a fortunate accident, as it
afterward proved, the part through
which he was cutting being at that
time below the water level. At
length the wreck went ashore on the
beach of st. Mary's lie, and was in
stantly surrounded by a gang of
fishermen. Their shouts to each
other were answered by a hoarse,
unearthly cry from within the stran-
ded vessel, at which the nearest
man ran back affrighted, but his
holder comrades, guessing at once
how matters stood, FASTENED to break
open the hull. A hole was soon cut
hgnd the imprisoned men, by this
lime in the last stage of exhaus
ton, were drawn forth and hospit-
ably cared for.

Various Ways in Which the Delicious
Little Red Fellow May be Eaten.
From the Boston Journal

From the Boston Journal
AS the strawberry season is at
hand, few ideas regarding the dis
posal of the delicious berry might
be timely. Here is one of the best
receipts for strawberry shortcake:
One pint sifted -four, - teaspoon
full salt, scant; ID teaspoonful soda,
measured after pulverizing; l full
teaspoonful cream of tartar (omit if
sour milk be used), mixed together
and sift two or three times; IA cup
butter, cup sweet or sour milk or
cold water. Rub in the butter, or
melt the butter and add it hot with
the milk, gradually mixing and cut
ting with a knife, and use just
enough to make it Of light, spongy
consistency. Either bake on a grid
die or in the oven. When baked
tear open and spread each half Of
the cakes with sOftened butter. Put
half of the cakes on a hot plate.
Mash a pint of strawberries, sweeten
to taste, put large spoonful on
each cake; then put another layer Of
cakes and whole berries, we'll sugar
ed. Serve with cream.
Strawberry charlotte: Line a
bowl with strawberries and fill with
Bayarian cream. The cream is
made up of IA box gelatine, IA cup
cold water soaked together Whip
one pint of cream till you have three
pints Of the whip. Boil the remain
der with Is cup sugar and when
boiling add the gelatine. Add l
teaspoonful vanilla. When the mix
ture is cold add whip cream.
Strawberry sherbet: One pint
berry juice, l pint sugar, pint wa
ter, juice 2 lemons, l tablespoonful
gelatine. Or, pint preserved fruit,
cup sugar, quart water, , lemons,
tablespoonful gelatine.

The Democrats We're sent to
Washington to revise the tariff, to
reduce the war burdens Of taXations
which now press upon the people;
and they will betray their trust if
they reduce excise taxes and then
attempt to show that they have
really reduced the burdens Of taxa
ton. This was the sham relief the
Republicans gave us in the last Con
gress, and we do not think that the
Democrats can afford to initiate
their example.-New York Herald

Mention was made in yesterdays
LEADER of a young mans accidentally
shooting himself at Bar c ranch. The
reports received at the time were meager
and but little definite could be learned be-
yond the fast that he was seriously hurt
and had been removed to Bar C ranch.

lowing special dispatch;
POWDER RIVER, Wyo., September 10.
Alfred Matthews, Of Randdallsville,
Pa, who accidentally shot himself n few
days ago, on Spring creek, died last night
at Bar c ranch. He will be buried here
to-day.
\ LEADER representative examined the
hotel registers and made diligent inquiries
but could find no one who knew the I'M
fortunate man. 1t is quite possible that
he may have friends in this city as he was
on a hunting excursion at the time of the
accident.

THE MAN OF MEDALS
Is Arrested and Lodged in Jail--some
Jewelry.

The crank, whose actions were referred
to.in THE LEADER some days ago, was
arrested and lodged in the Sheriff's furn-
ished rooms yesterday. He resisted
stoutly and the officer had considerable
difficulty in making the arrest.
When searched it was found that he
had enough jewelry secreted in his habili-
ments to stock a secondhand store. Most
men are satisfied with one ~timepiece but
he, believing in the trinity, had three.
He had a supply Of chains sufficient for
hawser chains of q diminutive Great
Eastern. His literary taste was made
manifest by the number of pens which he
carried. They were Of all sizes, patterns
and materials. His collection of medals
would have beaten those of 4 champion
s%culler, prize fighter or French marshal.
He was placed in confinement and will,
in all probability, be sent to an asylum.

The ~cattlemen of U.ah and Idaho will
meet in the Opera House at Ogden on
the 18th inst for the purpose offorming a
stock association. Speaking of the matter
the Ogden Pilot says: "The enactment
Of protective laws, the regulation and
classification of brands and the ~organiza-
ton Of a permanent association similar to
those in other States and Territories will
undoubtedly consume the session of the
meeting. Our attention has lately been
called to the fact that fully 1000 head of
cattle are annually driven from Utah and
Southern Idaho to Territories east. OF
this number no less than 30, 900 are sent
from Utah. The average value per head
is $50, making the revenue to the Ter
ritory from cattle alone 5000. 900. This is
very good as a starter, but by no means
commensurate with the capabilities of the
Territory.
