Only Missing.


A couple of weeks ago the MORNING
NEWS published a long list Of ocean
steamers which have been reported miss
ing. Some OF these have been missing for
many years, while others sailed away
fromsport at a comparatively recent date
and never arrived at their destinations.
1t cannot be doubted that every one of
these ships is lost. The passengers and
crews are also markd missing. These
aggregate 1000 or 1900 men and probably
several hundred women and children.
To this list has recently been added the
Rapidan. which sailed from New York on
Feb. for Costa Rica, with her officers
and crew, % in number, one passenger
aud a cargo of bloOded cattle. There can
be little doubt that she foundered with all
on board soon after leaving port, for she
was never seen after the horizon had shut
her from the sight OF the pilots of Sandy
Hook. The fact that this old ship was
once trader at this port gives the people
of Savannah a special interest in her fate.
Were we to publish list of the hum
dreds of sailing vessels, as we'll as steam
ers, that have been marked missing
during the last generation it would, no
doubt, fill columns OF space. How easy iC
is to say of these hundreds of ships and
thousands Of people that they are only
missing. What has become OF them
Doubtless, by far the larger number OF
them foundered in the midst of raging
storms, and their crews met tragic deaths
worthy Of the brave and rugged sailors
Of which they were composed. Many,
perhaps, struck floating wrecks or hidden
rocks, and so went down immediatel
while all around them was sunshine,
there not being sufficient warning to per-
init even the launching Of a boat. Ii may be
that even in this nineteenth century some
OF these good ships were captured BY pi-
rates, and every soul on board put to the
sword or made 10 walk the plank, or per-
haps the crews OF some were Imprisoned
in the holds and consigned TO watery
grave in the great collins that they had
regarded as their homes. Perhaps there
are survivors OF some OF these ships in
slavery in inhospitable, savage lands,
while the wrecks are rottlng on unire-
! quented shores.
While probably nine out OF every ten OF
these vessels went down and left no sign
or piece OF wreckage upon the waters,
thousands Of loved ones have waited long
and with melancholy Impotence for the re-
turn OF the victims OF the great deep. The
ocean closed over them In a moment, but
the rended hearts yearned on for days and
months and years.
How vast, how cruel, how unrelenting
Is the sea!

The PosslbllltIes OF a aoose Farm


Several gentlemen from Virginia have been
looking around through the mountain coun
ties of western Pennsylvania for the past week
with view 20 establishing a goose farm -
Among the party are James Bench, Henry
Bailey and james COnnOr. all of whom are
from Baltimore, Md. The latter SAID:
''Yes, we want to secure farm OF several
hundred acres. with a stream OF water with
rock bottom ruaning through it, TO start IN
the business OF raising geese, 1t may seem
like a rather curious business to engage IN
but there 10 money in it. We got our idea
from the great goose farm started some time
ago down on the eastern shore Of Virginia
Within an area of about 5000 acres there live
5000 geese OF several varieties, attended by
herders, and regularly fed with corn. etc. The

place, only the breast and sides under the

duee one pound of feathers per annum, which
can readily be sold at soc. per pound We
want TO start with about 500 geese, and calcu-
late that they will raise 5000 gOslings wear
"In addition TO the money received for
feathers, we propose TO sell OF the Young
geese, and can realize from 75 cents to Si
apiece for them. We have several farms in
view along the line of the PENNSYLVANIA road
and up the Monongahela river, but will not
make a definite choice for the farm for a few
days yet. Geese live forever, YOU might saw
