A Most Unluclky Ship.

from the Boston Transcript,
Perhaps the most unlucky ship that was ever
launched from an American shipyard was the
Harvey Mills, which closed her ten years
career Of disaster by sinking of Cape Flattery
on the last day of December, 1886. She was
launched on Friday, and was baptized IN blood.
killing workman when gliding into the sea.
Once in the merchant service she met 80 many
mishaps that the underwriters actually classed
her as an extra hazardous risk. On her first
voyage she was all but lost, and twice she mar
rowiy escaped laundering. She was on fire
once while transporting cotton from Port
Royal TO Liverpool, and was transformed into
floating furnace. Her matches were closed
down, enabling her to reach New York before
the flames cut through the deck. Later she
rode down and sank bark in the English cham
mel. and none Of the bark's crew escaped to tell
their side OF the story. On her next voyage
she was dismasted by a hurricane. Twice she
was given up for lost, and when at last she bat
tied unsuccessfully with the frightful gales off
Cape Flattery, twenty-one of the twenty-four
unfortunates on boardwere engulfeds so quickly
when she sank that they could not even grasp
spar.

A Duel by MOONLIGHT.

Paris Dispatch to the London Daily Telegraph
News of a determined duel by moonlight
comes to-day from balmy Biarritz It was
fought by two young Spaniards of high family,
who quarreled on very trivial pretext at a
soiree given by the Baron de Bee. The COM
batants chose pistols. and as the moon did not
sufficiently illuminate the scene candles and
torches were placed in sequestered part of
the baron's horticultural premises. Positions
We're taken up at twenty PAGES, and hardly had
the word of command been given when one of
the cOmbatants fell shrieking to the ground
He had been shot through the right shoulder,
the blade of which was fractured. The bullet
was extracted by surgeon after a little diff
Guilty, and the wounded hidalgo was taken
home where he now lies, and is in a fair way
to recovery. He is the son of a Spanish gen.
eral. The seconds Of the defeated combatant
were Prince Oldenburg, relative Of the car,
and Don Alfonso de Albania, q young Carlist
officer while the victor was attended on the
ground by COmte de Lesser and the Duke of
Tamames, a grandee of Spain of the first
class, husband Of one Of the daughters Of the
Duke Of Alba, and a nephew by marriage Of
the Empress Eugene. The pretext of the
quarrel is described as futile, but it is possible
that a dark-eyed senorita was at the bottom of

Indianapolis has gone wild over the fact that
it contains the President elect. Although the
weather was bad crowds thronged the streets

Mr. Hull delivered congratulatory address.

Gen. Harrison began to receive congratula-

bundles of these kilograms, there being fully
5000. Among them were the following:

Fashion and BREEDING.

the bO6tOn courier
There il perhaps no more infallible sign or
vulgarity than the installing of fashion for
good breeding, and yet there is perhaps no err
ror more common. The underlined man al
ways supposes himself to be comprising the
lnnermOst mysteries of being a gentleman
when he has followed the latest whimsical fam
cies Of fashion. They have no inner sense Of
the ntness OF things. and are forced to depend
upon outer rules. They cannot be said to for
get-since they have never known-that there
Y an essential vulgarity in the eternal discus
sion OF forms and Of customs The truly WELL
bred man knows as a matter Of course what ia
proper, and If under unusual circumstances he
may sometimes be at loss in regard to eti-
whimscalities of fashion
The distinction between good breeding and
fashion is usually pretty strongly marked in
people OF the new rich variety. These upstairs
are apt to be well up in all the devices and de-
s,res OF fashion; they are painfully exact in
their observance of the latest whimsicalities of
dress and department; they are miserable over
any failure to keep up with the freshest
changes In the ever-varying code of rules laid
down by some vulgar leader of fashion who is
Tor the moment at the head Of the swim; but
they are absolutely outside of the truly we'll
bred circle. The ''caste Of We're de We're" is
above the accidents of the hour, and does NOT
descend from its lofty elevation because of
failure to comply with outward rules which
change from day to day and from week TO week.
like the dictates of fashion.
And herein is the whole secret to the matter:
fashion is of the surface, while breeding is OF
the mind. Fashion deals with the behavior:
breeding is q matter Of the character. Fashion
Is varnish which may be applied to any sur
face, while breeding is a method of making,
beggar may be taken from the gutter and
trained to the height of fashion. while a man
can be well-bred only through process begun
with his grandfather. In a word, fashion is
but the shadow Of q shadow, while breeding is

Voting as he Fought.

From the Detroit Journal.
"This is one gracious privilege that never
neglect" said Mr.. Greening, as he proudly APP
preached the polls this morning and held out a
bulky piece Of paper toward the inspector.
What denomination is that Mr.. Greening?'
asked the election officer.
That's none Of your concern, SIR" retorted
Elisha, angrily. Il vote as Ifought-away from
the madding crowd"
But, surely, that isn't your ticket" persisted
the officer.
''DO look like man who would triae at SO
serious a moment?" and Elisha's face showed
sorrow and shame and anger. Then he looked
at his ballot, and a blush Overspread his face as
he slowly unrolled it.
''Boys, this is horse on me-" he finally said,
as for the delectation Of the impatient crowd
he read the following ticket, prepared in fem
mime hand:
One dozen nursery pins.
Five pounds anise seed.
Ten yards cheese cloth.
Two boxes Ridges food.
One bottle castoria.
Another dozen nursery pins.
Two bolts cotton.
Don't forget to telephone the doctor.
Get prices on babies wraps
Elisha fished the right ticket out of his vest
pocket and left the polls Disguised with himself
and with fool men who always laugh at small
mistakes.

A Tale Of Blood.

A MYSTERIOUS HEREDITARY CURSE THAT AFFLIcTs
BOSTON FAMILY.
Boston Correspondence Salt Lake Tribune
There is a certain family here in Boston which
suffers from mysterious hereditary curse, Of
the sort one reads about in hair-elevating
stories of the supernatural. The first son Of
every daughter bleeds to death.
The story as to the manner in which the
affection originated cannot, Of course, be
vouched for. 1t has to do with q great-great-
grandmother, who murdered q rich uncle by
opening one OF his veins with a pOinard in
order to get possession of the old gentleman's
vast wealth. The ghost of the deceased sub
sequently appeared to the inscriptions niece
and announced in hollow tones, appropriate to
the tomb, the dismal prediction that for all
time henceforth the eldest male of every girl
in her family should die by bleeding
So much for the explanatory tradition. The
fact is, that for many generations the Crockett
family, of Charlestown-which is a part Of
Boston-and vicinity has been pursued by a
hemorrhagic Nemesis. The first son of every
daughter, even to remote cousins invariably
bleeds to death. All other members of the
trouble. But the method Of this inherited
curse is 30 well-know that each female Crock
EFT il prepared, on the arrival Of her initial
boy, for the experience which is bound to
ensue. The first little cut or even scratch the
infant experiences is the signal for q panic
and the wound is treated with preparation Of
iron, in the form Of powder. II Is q narrow
squeak in such cases always, but there is a
good chance of recovery, within eight
days, II the thing is taken in time.
At the end Of that period the patient
either gets well or dies from loss Of blood
very suddenly. For such is the manner
of the bleeder's complaint. He is sure to be
attacked in precisely the same way, every time
during his after life that his skin is seriously
abraded. On occasions OF the sort he must
adopt immediate measures remedial or die.
By exercising the most extraordinary precau-
tions he may reach q comfortable age, but
sooner or later he is sure to perish by an unto
ward accident, causing o dow Of blood which
no phyician's art could stop. So far not a
singis one of the destined victims has escaped
the penalty. The oldest one living is a Mr..
Surrstt, of Melrose, who has been accustomed,
| when he wanted tooth pulled, TO revise his
will, visit his relatives and bid them all good
bye, as though it were likely to be forever.
Life is an extra hazardous risk when you are q
bleeder. Thus it happens that the eldest sons
Of the Crockett family, direct and collateral on
the maternal side, are found TO be engaged In
gravedigging and other harmless avocsfions,
which are mot likely 10 occasion incidental
