WRECK or THE PULASKI.
The Story of Fearful Shipwreck
Retold by an Athenian

Written for the Athens Banner Rdtchadn.
In the churchyard on Edisto Island, s.
c., stands monument to the memory of
"a persons who perished in the explosion
of the steamer Pulaski on the coast of
North Carolina opposite Cape Fear. l
lived once with a Mr., Edings, who had
lost his mother and sister in this disaster,
and often have heard him speak of the
event. His father, TOther and sister,
with 81 other persons from this small
island, were bound for Saratoga from
Charleston on a pleasure trip. The Pu-
laski was then running in opposition to
the steamer James Adger, and by her adj
vertlsement to make the trip to New
York in 81 hours, had secured nearly all
the passengers, some 200 in number. The
Captain was drinking heavily and kept up
such a head OF steam as to make some of
the wiser counsel to have him arrested;
but 10 and behold, they had waited too
long. The day OF the disaster was a
lonely day in July, and when the CON-
mittee went on deck to demonstrate with
the Captain he remarked that he knew his
business and would put his steamer in
New York or go to hell and little did he
know how soon he would die). The com
mittee then went alOft to talk over the mat
ter, and while they were cOnYersing
came the terrible explosion that waited
over 100 people into eternity. The few sur
ViVors, about 40, had only two boats, and
the rest managed to make a raft of float
ing spars and started away from the float
ing debris with hot July sun overhead,
no food nor water, and far away on the
broad Atlantic, out of sight OF land. When
night came on the boats lost sight of the
raft and made for the North Carolina
coast. After being turned over by the
breakers and several lives lost, the for
lorn found themselves on a sand bank,
with no food or water, and to reach the
main land had to wade across the marshy
lands. Nearly exhausted and muddy from
head to foot they reached farm house
and eventually home.
The raft, with eight persons, all men,
drifted out TO sea, and the next day, be-
ing fearful hot one, their suffeTings from
hunger and thirst can hardly be imag-
ined. Most of them became delirious and
the next morning, as the sun rose in all
his lOveliness, found these poor wretches
adrift on the wide sea. Shortly after a
sail was sighted, and then they hastily
tore off their clothing and made a flag of
distress. The ship turned from her course
and picked them up ard carried them to
New York city, but only three out OF the
eight lived, and one, Mr.. Eding's father,
was paralyZed on one side. He never
again saw his wife or child. What ter
rible ending to that happy party Of
wealthy SOutherners bound for Saratoga

DEATH TO CoYoTEs.-The Red Bluff Sen
tinel says that B. A. Bell, Superintendent
of the Gallatin ranch, has discovered an
excellent plan to get rid of coyotes. He
first had five iron picket-pins made. He
got an old eve of little value and took
her to the range where a band of mutton
sheep were herded. He then tied a rope
about six feet long to her neck and the
other end of the rope to a picket-pin,
which he drove into the ground. He then
planted four steel traps at equal distances
from each other in a circle, a short distance
outside the circle that would be made by
the sheep round. Over the ground and
traps hay was spread so that the coyotes
could not see them. The trick worked
like a charm, and for three mornings in
succession Mr.. Bell had the satisfaction of
finding a live coyote in n of the traps.
He changed the location of the old eve
and caught two more coyotes. Since that
time he has not been troubled with coyotes
killing his sheep.

agents must have many months of time
in which to do this. The belief is well
supported that, by such a system, at least
twenty of the fifty counties could be Sc
cured even next year to make distinctive
exhibits. What a fair hat of 1887 would
be if fifteen or twenty or more counties of
California would almost absorb the space
in the Pavilion with exhibits of their
fruits, grapes, grains, woods, manufactured
products, etc. We believe it possible to
so work through skilled agents as to bring
about such a result, and in the course of a
few years make the State Fair a perfectly
complete annual exposition of the re-
sources of the entire State. Bnt if any
thing more in this direction is accom-
plished than has been, it will be by some
such method as that suggested. To leave
it any longer to voluntary effort will not
do. The few counties that have made ex-
hibits will not care to repeat year after
year unless there is broader enthusiasm
and sharper competition, and this can be
accomplished, we hold, by the labors of
agents of the Society sent into the counties
for the purpose. The splendid success at
tanned to this date is warrant for the belief
that the greater achievements we have
outlined can be accomplished.

RIGHT EXPRESSION.

The following, from the San Francisco
Alta, a Democratic journal, we editorially
reproduce, for the express purpose Of en-
phatic concurrence in the expressions
made. The Alta is right, decent, manly,
and to be commended in this matter. The
rebuke it reads to the vicious influences
that turn all stones to slime his character
so o as a man becomes a candidate, is
faulty only in lack of severity. The Alta
says. "The misuse of the news facilities
of the country is as glazing and inexcus-
able when they are debauched to one party
as to the other. Telegraphic libels of John
F. Swift, like that from Fresno, which APP
peared in OH Geographic columns on Fri
day, are as indecent as the like libels upon
a Democrat, and we propose to show them
no quarter nor distinction nor differ
ence in treatment. We discard and reject
all votes to be won upon the theory that
one candidate is an imbecile and the other
a cozener. The two great parties have
nominated representative men, of decent
life and private habits, and the issue be-
tween them is simply one of principle"

COUNTY ExH1RrTs.

We conceive it to be timely, in view of
the past history of the exhibitions, to re-
new the suggestion that the State Board
Of Agriculture should organize effort to
secure a large number of county exhibits
at tire next State Fair. The time to do
this is in the winter season, TO be supple
mented by still other efforts early in the
spring. Three years ago we urged this
matter upon the attention of the Board.
Nothing has presented to lead us to mod
ify the views her expressed. We cannot
have a large number of county exhibits
and it is conceded that they are of inesti-
mable value to the annual expositions-
without some organization in each county
to secure them. Where the Oranges take
hold of the matter that influence is sufi-
cient. Where they do not, the chances
are nothing at all viii be done. But effort
of an individual character is needed in
most cases to get ever the Oranges to as
sumo the responsibility. 1t has appeared
to us ali along that the effective and eco
nomic method of attaining the desired
end would be to appoint one OIL
two thoroughly competent and active
men to go into each county
and organize influences that would secure
a showing for each county at the State
F.ir-if not all in one year, groups Of
hem from year to year. OF course, such

WILLIAM,

Emperor William is said to be at deaths
door. 1t is not surprising, for he has
passed the ordinary period deemed the
life limit of man. 1t will be said of the
great and good monarch that under his
reign Germany made greater progress
than under that of any other ruler. That
the German people have under him gained
immeasurably in freedom and the recogni-
ton of human rights that the advance of
science, art, mechanics, education and toll
Grafton has been greater under William
than in the reigns of any, or indeed all his
predecessors. But when this is said, it is
to be added that Kaiser William has been
moved, whether he would or not, far more
by the grand current of human progress
than any previous German monarch. He
could not, had he tried, have stemmed the
resistIess tide. He had the wisdom not to
seriously attempt it. He has lived in an
era of progress such as the world has lever
before experienced. He has been n of
the incidents of the era, and to but a linn
tied extent a motor in the onward sweep Of
peoples toward the highest possibilities of
the race Of man.
