a NEW INDUSTRY.
Establishment of Factory for Making
Porpoise Leather and Oil.

Establishment of Factory for Making
Porpoise Leather and Oil.
The most considerable event which
has taken place at Hatteras for long
time has been the establishment of 9
porpoise factory by some Wilmington
capitalists. As regularly organized
industry the business is new to the
country. The fishermen have caught
more or less porpoises every winter,
but have never done more than to fry
out from their blubber a small quantity
OF oil. The new company. however. has
purchased special machinery and i'm
ported skilled workmen from Europe,
and proposes to make leather, oil and
fertilizers. No leather has been placed
on the market thus far. That from
young individuals has a curious ''pile"
like velvet and is very beautiful. 1t
may perhaps be used in uphOlstering in
place of plush. than which it would be
far more durable. The pOrpoises APP
pear off the beach nearly every day
and the fishery is prosecuted daily
unless the sea is running too high.
Only the strongest nets would hold
porpoises, and when frightened they
will dart about with inconceivable ra-
pidity and strike against the nets with
great force. They are first impounded
in a very large net and afterward
brought to the beach by a sweep seine
made of the strongest Irvine. 1t is a
strange and exciting scene when sixty
or eighty of these powerful creatures,
each eight or nine feet long, are being
pulled in toward the beach. They
struggle desperately and make a con-
tinual piping sound like the squealing
of rats. Many become entangled in
the net and are drowned, but the ma
jority have to be killed after they are
drawn out of the water. Although the
fishermen persist in calling them fish
they are, of course, true milk-giving
mammalia. The milk is not unpalat-
able, but very rich and with a flavor
like cocoanut milk.
Although the winter has been very
unfavorable large number of pOr-
poises have been taken. The season
closed in May. The fishermen stay in
their camp on the beach every day
from dawn until sunset, whether any
fish" appear or not. They are
warned of their approach by spies sta
toned half a mile north and south of
the camp. The men say that the fish
cry is mo fun" which means that it is
exceedingly laborious. -HatteraS (N.

BOBBING UP SERENELY.
The One Vessel, the Cornerstone Of the
Republican Navy, Described as "MI-
rine Crazy-Quilt."

The One Vessel, the Cornerstone Of the
Republican Navy, Described as a "Ma,
rine Crazy-Quilt."
One would have thought that enough
had been said about John Roach no.
torious contract vessel, the Dolphin.
But that risky craft turns up again as
lively and saucy as ever. The Sen
ate, in spare moment from its pen
sion hobby, thought it would be good
thing TO waste more time over this
wearisome subject OF the Delphi n.
Secretary Whitney, in compliance with
4 Senate resolution, has laid before that
body mass OF information concerning
the vessel, which the Republicans, last
fall, vainly endeavored to utilize for
political capital. The boasts of the
New York Tribune that the vessel sue
ceeded in weathering Il storm on her
last trial cruise are considerably quail
fled by the report of Captain Meade
on that trip. who designates her as a
marine crazy-quilt, the general plan of
the ship and machinery being unsatis-
factory and wholly unsuited to the
needs of a navy. The report of the
civilian experts was still more damag-
ing, declaring that the Dolphin is not
fit to contend with bad weather such as
is usually encountered by our coasting
steamers. She was strained by the seas
she encountered on her trip to Fortress
Monroe, and her crew were not in
clined to risk their lives on board of her
again.
1t will be seen, therefore, that the
Republican Senators have very poor
material for political capital in the
Dolphin. Their brethren in New
York made notable efforts. last fall, to
persuade the people that the only OBJ
lection to this notorious craft was on
the part of the Secretary of the Navy,
who was resolved to sacrifice that lib
eral Republican contractor, and con-
tributor to campaign funds, John
Roach. But the contractor made a
very sorry martyr, and not even a
ghost of an issue could be made out of
him or his marine crazy-quilt The
wonderful change which has taken
place in a year in the management of
the Navy Department has removed
every trace of Chamberlain and job
berry, and when Congress sees fit to
strengthen the hands of Secretary
Whitney by thorough reorganization
of the system under which the depart
ment is conducted, there will be no
delay in carrying out, in the fullest
and most satisfactory manner, the
great work of creating a navy worthy
of the Nation. The era of -.navery
and peculation in the department has
been succeeded by wise, business-like
management, and the taxpayers may
now expect proper return for their
money, which was out of the question
when Robson, Roach and Chandler
ruled the department.-ALbany Argus.

Small fruit culture will ALWAYS be

English farmers claim that turpips
impart very agreeable and superior
flavor to mutton. quite superseding
the ''wooly TASTE" of which so many
complain. They say the flesh of the
sheep partakes more closely of the
flavor of its food than of any other
known meat producing animal.
Picked chicken: Boil four chick
ems until tender enough for meat to fall
from bones, put meat in stone jar and
pour over it three pints o. cold. good
cider vinegar and pint and a half of
the water in which the chickens were
boiled; and spices if preferred, and it
will be ready for use in two days. This
is popular Sunday evening dish: it is
good for luncheon at any time.-Phila-

ter of a pound of small-grain tapioca,

When done allow it to cool a little.

Wet and Dry Countries.

In the valley of the Rio Pecos. West
Texas, there are districts where not a
single drop of rain mas fallen since
April, 1855. The smaller tributaries
of the river have entirely disappeared,
and the drought thus far has cost the
settlers some three thousand head Of
cattle. In the upper half of the Pecos
valley continuous drought of ten
months is not considered any thing
abnormal; but this year even the
usually redeeming month of March
passed without drop of rain, and no
relief from the sky, at least, is ex-
pected before February. 1887. The
other extreme is probably the southeast
corner of Alabama, where sixty-eight
inches a year is nothing unusual.
South America, however. is n country
of much greater extremes. In the low
lands of Venezuela the yearly supply
varies from one hundred and fifty to
one hundred and seventy-fivc inches.
while on the coast of Peru there are
districts where one light shower in
twenty-five years is considered fair
average. Chicago Times.
