The seaI-Fishing Question.

OTTAWA, September 29.-Since the
first demand for the release OF the Can
adam sealing Schooner OaVard, re-
Gently seized by the United States
revenue cutter in Alaska Sea, was for
warded to the colonial office at Lon
don to be laid before the authorities at
Washington. a supplementary de-
mand will be made through the same
channel in which it is pointed out that
in the convention signed at st. Peters
burg, between England and Russia, one
of the articles guarantees to British sub
jects from whatever quarter they may
arrive, the right to forever enjoy privil-
eyes of navigation and fishing in the
Pacific Ocean, or any part thereof.
From this point it is argued that the
United States could not have received
from Russia the right to exclusive navi-
cation or fishing or sealing privileges in
Alaskan waters.

An American Interloper.
London Truth

1t would seem that "The Winans" has
at last one friend in Scotland-"The
Chisholm" The latter has let some ex-
tensive shootings and an arabic farm to
Lord Tweedmouth who has built very
handsome lodge on the ground, and had
had expended many thousands of pounds
in draining. making roads, retaining
waste land, etc. One would have sup
posed that landlord would have wished
to retain so desirable tenant. Not so
The Chisholm, who has granted the Win
ans twenty-five years lease of the prop
erty, without giving Lord Tweedmouth
the option of renewal, although there are
still seven years of his lease to run. Not
satisfied with this. The Chisholm has
Joined The Winans in trying to shut out
Lord Tweedmouth from access to the
high country road, within FIVE hundred
yards of his own door. Scotch land
lords have been in the habit of pleading
that The Winans is a sort of American
interloper, who, having made money by
railroad contract in Russia, is entirely
destitute of any of the feelings that ami
mate a Scotch gentleman. But here we
have a Scotch gentleman consOrting with
the interloper, turning out tenant to
oblige him, and giving him opportunity
to do more harm. Of the pair I really
think that The Chisholm is the worse.
1t is at least a consolation to think that,
besore this new lease to The Winans has
run out. the law will be so amended as to
bring it home both to this hardened sin
ner and to The Chisholm, that they can
not insult all sense of right with impun-
ity.

An Owls Revenge.

DR.. Dufaur, French physician reports
this interesting case: A common brown
owl built its nest beneath the projecting
roof of farm house, where it had a brood
of young. One day the farmer out of
curiosity, drove away the old bird, took
out the young owls, and after looking at
them, replaced them uninjured. In the
evening, as he was entering the house with
his servant, that latter suddenly heard the
beating of wings, and he felt the claws Of
the owl on his chin, and before he could
defend himself, received blow from its
beak directly under the eye. On the fol-
lowing day an unsuccessful hunt for the
bird was instituted, but in the dusk it APP
peared again and attacked the farmer
himself, striking him directly in the eye
with its beak. DR.. Dufaur found wound
of the cornia and an abundant hemor-
rhage. The sight of his eye was COM
pletely lost, and the other was subsequent

A REMARKABLE WELL
1t Yields Oil, Mineral water and Gas in Great
Quantities.
San Luis Obispo Trihune

For some months past DR.. Nichols.
Judge Adams and Alfred Walker have
been boring for oil near Miles Station. on
the Pacific coast Railway. A flow has not
yet been reached, but there is a flow of
warm white sulphur water, from which
rises a column of gas burning ward in
height. The locality is the base of a hill
lying between San Luis Creek and Cave
Landing, fronting northeasterly. The
surface rock is serpentine, with occasion
al groupings of dark sand stone. In one
of these sandstone groupings an exuda-
ton of Oil has been observed and it was
determined to investigate and determine
what the formation might bring forth
An excavation was made and the rock
blasted away, was found permeated with
petroleum, and when placed in the fire
burned fercely. With this slight pros
pect, 1t was decid ed to bore in the usual
manner for an oil well. The different
formations penetrated correspond very
closely with the formations found in Dor
ing for oil wells in Pennsylvania. There,
1T is understood, three strata of sand
rock must be passed before the flowing
oil is reached. Here two such LAYERS
have been penetrated, and now the auger
is IN the third. Before reaching the last
stratum flow of warm sulphur water was
struck, and from the lower sand rock
comes large volvmne of gas. These
now come up together, the water flowing
at the rate of 400 barrels a day, being
heavily impregnated with white sulphur,
and having a temperature of 81 Q. The
gas bubbles out of the water, and being
lighted, sends up flame about three
feet in height, burning continuously. The
boring will be continued until the sand
rock is passed through the expectation of
of striking oil. Should oil not be reached
the well will be of great value. The local
ity is sylvan retreat of remarkable love
Illness and the climate the most genial and
balmy the health or pleasure-seeker could
desire.

cient darky had excused himself for not
helping hunt for the bag because de
rheumatism froze up all my bones" But
the dog, without regard for the old fell
lows age or infrmity, grabbed him by
his 'coat-collar, and unceremoniously pull
ed him over backward, tipping up his
seat, and exposing the stolen property
which this expert thief had placed under
the box when no one happened to be
looking. The rapidity with which the
dusky scamp left the depot proved the
falsehood of his talk about rheumatism;
and he would surely have made good his
escape If Carlo had not overtaken him
just as he was darting through door
way, and getting a firm grip on his i'm
mense foot held fast until policeman
came up.
One evening, after long tramp
through the interior, we came out upon
the sea-shore, where the bottom, being
smooth and gently sloping, offered oppor-
tunities for good swim, which some of
the party improved, leaving their arms
and luggage at our camp, back on the
high ground. In these waters there is
always more or less danger from sharks,
but as this particular locality gave no
signs of the murderous creatures, our
boys tumbled in without{ fear, and Charlie
Butler, mere lad, to show what he could
do, swan out to coral reef, nearly mile
from land. Before he was ready to re-
turn, / became tired of the sport and
went to look after the preparation of
supper. I had just succeeded in making
the cook understand what sort of meal
we require, when a sudden outcry told
me something was going wrong on the
shore. Grabbing a rifle and fastening
back with Carlo at my heels, I beheld But
Ter some distance away, swimming with
all his might, and only few yards be-
hind him the vertical fin of huge shark.
There seemed no possibility that the
boys life could be saved; we were
without boats, and fish and man
were SO nearly in line from US that did
not dare to fire. In a second Black Carlo,
comprehending the situation, dashed
through the surf and started to swim to-
ward Charlie with a speed I have never
seen equaled by any land animal. The
boy having leisurely covered must of the
distance between the reef and shore when
the man-eater started after him, was COM
paratively fresh and when he saw noble
dog fastening to his help made a final,
desperate effort to escape. In another
instant Carlo was close to him. Just
then, however, the shark having come
near enough, turned SO that we could see
his white belly glistening in the twilight,
and was all ready for the spring that
would surely have ended Charles life,
when Carlo, leaping clean over Buffers
form, appeared to go straight into the
monsters mouth; and the latter, having
got his supper, disappeared in deep water
while the lad in few seconds was safe
on the shore. That night our Joy over
our comrades rescue was mingled with
sorrow for the life so gallently sacrificed
in his behalf. And to this day the mem
DRY of that thrilling scene fills me with
sadness for the loss of Black Carlo, my
dog hero.
