Settled Down to Married Life.

A husband is forever drawing
contrasts between his wife as she
is and as she was. He also draws
contrasts between his wife and 9th
er women. There is nothing partic-
larly sinful in this. 1t is quite
natural and is to be expected
Women are too much disposed to
take 1t for granted that marriage
means the extinction of the 9Sthct-
ic sense in tie husband. 1t does
not mean anything OF the kind
There is no reason why the psthet-
ic sense should not be just as
strong in a mani after he is married
as before he is married. In fact, it
is so. The average woman is too
much disposed toshed her plumage
when she marrieS. The average
man is more disposed to keep his,
and make himself proportionately
more interesting. The average
woman says when she gets mar
ried: s.Thank goodness l have
come thus far. ''l'hen she settles
down. This settling down means
a great deal. IN it is involved the
iSelchantmcnt, the disillusion
ment spoken of above. Too much
is revealed. The actuality becomes

DEATH PREFERRED TO CAPTURE.
Desperate Fight in Ships Hold
With Crazy Sailor.

wWAsHINGToN, D. c., April 12.-The State De-
partment has received from Consul Withers of
Hong Kong thrilling extract from the log of
the ship Granite State of Portsmouth, N. II. 1t
details the death of a mutinous and crazy sailor,
who. taking refuge in the hold, defed the crew
and threatened to burn the ship. The extract
reads as follows:
''After dinner, called all hands to break out car
go in the lower hold to find seaman named Leon
Salaries, who had for the second time gone into
the lower hold, where nothing but kerosene oil
was stored. This time he was well armed with
sheath knives, fastened on long poles, and posi-
he has had a light among the oil several times.
He also threatens to burn the ship if he is not
supplied with food and water. Have tried by all
known means to get him to come up; have tried
by promising to excuse him from all work; have
also tried TO capture him without harm TO
himself, or any one else, but he has ASSAULT q
several of the men, wounding them severely.
1.-The chief officer he struck by throwing fire
wood at him. 1t was impossible to reach him
where he was slowed without lanterns, and a
naked light was dangerous. He threw fire wood
at the lanterns and broke the glass. All the
crew and officers being anxious TO secure him be-
fore another night of suspense, and the weather
being rainy and squaly so that the matches had
to be put down, and the cases of oil were adrift.
determined TO capture him for his own safety, and
that of the ship and cargo and all on board.
Gave orders to the men to secure him and de-
fend themse Ives from violence, as he was des-
perate and dangerous man. After four hours
work captured him alive, wounded in the mouth
and left arm. He died ten minutes after being
taken up Appearances indicate suicide as there
is clean cut under his left ear, which must have
been made by a sharp instrument. Washed the
body, sewed it up carefully, hove the ship to, read
the funeral service for the dead, set the flag at
half-mast and buried Leon Salaries. All feel
greatly relieved to know that he is up from the
cargo. Signed by Thomas FitZ, master, and all
the officers and crew."

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
THE MAGISTRATE.

A more amusing and more enjoyable farce
comedy than ''The Magistrate" when pre-
sented by skilful actors, has not been placed
on the boards for many a long day. The plot
hinges on the ''early closing law in London,
which requires all places of public enter
tainment to be closed at II p. m, and If any
hotel disobeys, the parties found taking sup
per there are arrested, as well as the propri-
etor, brought before the municipal court and
fined. Judge Posket is an English munici
pal court judge, who has married a widow
with one son. The widow is quite young,
and the Judge advanced in years. The widow
has placed her age rather below the actual
number of years and has consequently re-
duced her sons years In proportion. Cls
Harrington, the son, has all the life, the de-
sires and feelings of his years, and is conse-
quently getting into all kinds of scrapes,
helped and urged on by his pretty cousin,
Beattie Tomlinson. Mrs. Posket hears that
an old friend, Col Lllkyn, has returned from
india, and is afraid he will 'give away her
age and her sons to the judge. She, accom-
panied by friend, Charlotte, go to Achille
Blond's hotel, to persuade Col. Lukyn-who
has gone there to have a supper with his
friend, Capt Vale, who is engaged to Char
lotte-not to let on to the Judge. Alter
the two women have gone, Cis Harrington
gets the judge TO go on lark with him, an d
they both go to the same hotel. The COM
plications here ensuing are awfully funny,
and the hotel not being closed at IL O'Clock
the police come in. Mrs. Posket, Charlotte,
Capt. Vale and Col. Lukyn are all arrested,
but the Judge and Cis escape. The next
morning the Judge is Mortified when his
wife and friends are brought before him:

this point perfectly safe.

RAILWAY MATTERS.

MORE ABOUT THE CANADIAN RAILROAD.
Mayor Baker of Belfast, recently received
a letter from j. G. Shaw of Hartland, con-
cerning the proposed railroad from Pittsfeld
to Moosehead Lake, to connect with the
Canadian Pacific. Mr. Shaw, who is
thoroughly in earnest in the matter, wants
to know how the Belfast people regard ii.
The Mayor wrote him that owing to the ex-
citement incident to the recent election, he
had better defer his visit to Belfast to a
time later in the season. Mr.. Shaw writes
encouragingly and says they are going to
push the matter. One scheme is to cross the
Maine Central at Pittsfield and continue in
straight line along the horsebacks to Unity,
connecting with the Belfast road at that
place. The other is to stop at Pittsfeld and
connect with the Maine Central there.
