The Lone Voyager.
Special to the Globe-Democrat.

NEWPORT, r. l., July 12.-Black
Island fishermen report that they met
Capt. Trayner, in the dory Bilber, on
Coxswain S Ledge, some twenty-five
miles east Of Black Island and equally
as far south of Marthas vineyard, on
Wednesday about II o'clock. The
Captains only animate companion,
his dog Jumbo, sat in the after end Of
the cockpit looking at his master.
The Captain was defeated IN the orig
inal intention of putting in at New
London during Monday night, after
he left New Haven, by the fact that a
strong northerly wind blew him over
under the Long Island shore. The
solitary voyager stopped and talked
with the fishermen fora few moments
and then went east. His course will
carry him to the south of the South
Shoal lifeboat, and consequently
south of Nantucket and her Preacher
Gus shoals 1t was about o'clock in
the afternoon when the bobbing
waves lost him to view as he padded
out ON the open rugged sea.

A Dissinated Ram.


Edward J ohnson who formerly kept
a saloon called The Sideboard, died
in San Francisco last Thursday. John
son in early days worked in Vint
Barry's saloon on B street, near Tay-
lor. Vint BaTy's saloon was the
place where a famous dissipated old
white ram used to spend the live-long
day, in pleasant weather, lying on the
sidewalk in the sunshine, doing APP
parently. till some one came along
and said: BILLY, come along and
have a drink" That used to brighten
him up at once; he would spring to
his feet with as much alacrity as any
hummer at a similar call, and follow
his friend into the saloon. johnson
always knew what the sheep wanted.
"a cocktail for Billy" he would say,
and Billy would wait patiently until
it was mixed, then place his forele2s
on the counter, throw back his head,
open his mouth, and close his eyes in
blissful enjoyment as the beverage
was poured slowly down his throat
by the barkeeper. After that, Billy
would cast his mild eyes around the
room and wait till some friendly hand
rendered a good-sized quid of fine-cut
tobacco, on receiving which he al
ways walked out in dignified way
and resumed his dreamy attitude on
the sidewalk

Danying Among Western Farmers

The development of the dairy COW
is teaching a most important lesson
to Western farmers, showing them
how stock can be kept at a profit,
and at the same time prevent the
exhaustion of their soil. The I'M
proved dairy COW will pay in dairy
products an income over all expenses
and produce a calf annually, that
sooH grows into marketable beef
This is the legitimate double income
of dairy farming. The old style Of
stock raising, by keeping cows simply
toraise calves, keeping both dam and
calf a year for the growth on the
calf, is no longer profitable, except
on the plains, where the keeping is
not considered, the herding being
about the only item of expense. The
Western farms, which are well
adapted to both grain and grass, will
ultimately become stock farms of the
kind we have been considering
dairying and beef raising combined
or if too small to carry on both, the
calves will be sold at Few months
old, to larger farmers, to be grown
to market age but the farms Will be
devoted to stock to their full capacity.

The Boss Collar Pad.

Ii is unquestionably the best pad ever
used. The zinc is pressed into the
leather on the under side, and firmly
fastened, making il the strongest pad in
use. 1t cannet be crippled or bent
when backing a heavy load; the zinc
being ON the under side prevents the
pad bending in the center and causing a
pinching OF the horses neck, and keeps
the pad open, giving the air a chance
to circulate, cool and dry Off the neck.
The zinc being covered it is protected
from the sun; it is always cool, easily
kept clean, and viii positively prevent
the none from becoming matted and
worn off. Ii prevents chatting and will
cure sore withers. No man who has
any pride or humanity about him will
work his horses without this pad after
he has given it a trial. If you had q
bolton your neck YOU would not put a
worlen cloth or sheep skin on 1t 10 heat
and intlame it..
Many a horse Is spoiled by hav ing

no horse should work while in that con

This session of the Legislature

finding j.. Nj. Davidson's name at

poor simple John Cummins probably
doesn't know any better. But we
did not expect to find DR.. Trousseau
figuring in the role of sharper. He
has lived long enough in this COM
munlty to acquire respectable
reputation, and he ought to be
ashamed of himself to now take up
the black leg, fleeing business.
Every man who allowed his name
to be used in connection with the
Bank Charter fraud, or who sought
to make it law, has a lasting stain
upon his character; and this lottery
scheme is in the same category.
DR.. Trousseau, respectable people
are disappointed in you and ashamed
of you, and you ought to be ashamed
of Yourself.

A NEW STEAM TUG FOR HONOLULU.

"Messrs. Cramp are building

and 6x13.6 and will have COM
pound engines of about 400 horse
power.
If this is so, what is the use of
this Government spending $50, 900
for new tug. There is not room
enough for two. Or is there nig-
ger in the fence, and is this the
Government boat, which the Spreck-
els Bros. are having built for con-
sideration. A corollary to the coin
age contract perhaps. If the Gov
ernment has already made con-
tract, the Legislature should know
what the terms are before voting so
large a sum as $4,000. They
should also find out by what right
the Government makes contracts of
this kind without the consent of the
Legislature.

Cabinet and its chief supporters
have been first and foremost in

trenchment or increase, the vote has
been strict party one, with the

A DANGER WHICH THE GOLD LAW
is SUBJECT TO.

The price of exchange is so ex-
cessive that large proportion of
our importers have stopped buying,
having made arrangements with
their creditors abroad to pay interest
on their debts until exchange shall
so far decrease that it can be OBJ
tained at reasonable figure. The
result will be that when the silver
certificates become redeemable in
gold on the lst of December. there
will be very large foreign debt
due and owing, being not only the
large amount naturally due at that
time, on account of holiday importa-
tions, but the accumulated debt of
the previous six months. The avail
able exchange will not probably be
enough to meet this demand, and as
a natural consequence there will i'm
mediately be q drain on the Treas
ury by presentation of the silver
certificates, which will then be pay
able in gold. Even now, merchants
are boarding silver certificates in
anticipation of this state of affairs.
The only way to avoid this sudden
large export of gold will be to have
sufficiently large reserve to tide
over, until gold begins to come here
naturally.
