that 1t will be injured in this she is
like all young mothers. Milking is an
entirely new operation TO her; likely
drawing milk from her udder gives her
pain. Her condition, her fears, and
the operation, all call for the exercise
OF the greatest patience and gentleness.
But instead, her solicitdde for her calf

It is attempted TO milk her-an opera
tion which she knows nothing of and
which her instincts to nourish her
offspring would cause her not to sub
init 70 readily she is scolded If the
pain caused by the, milk being drawn
leads her TO kick, she is kicked in
return. Thus her fright and nervous
ness are increased and soon she is
angered. III this treatment is contin-

never known of a heifer being econ.
quered" in this way. After her tor
mentor has worn himself out she is vet
ready TO kick, or TO use her horns if

her head or to put her between poles !:

A COLLISION.
The Schooner Moonlight Run Down
by the Sarah.

The schooner Moonlight left Boston We'd
nesday evening. loaded with $500 bushels of
corn in bulk, 29o barrels of -four, and 90 bar
rels OF kerosene oil, bound far Calais. About
8 o'clock that afternoon. when Cape Por-
poise bore w. N. W., about eight miles,
from the schooner a vessel was seen
coming down on her. The officers tried to
attract the strangers attention, but failed,
and could not see anyone on her deck except
the man at the wheel.
The strange vessel struck the Moonlight
on the port side, about three feet forward of
the house, breaking in three wales. three or
four top timbers, and cutting into her side
below the water line. carrying away the
main shrouds and main chains. The Moon
light made water very quickly, and in a
short time there was six feet of water in the
hold. Capt. Webster ordered the boat to be
got ready and put everything he could into
it as quickly as possible.
The stranger, as soon as she struck the
Moonlight, backed away and left. Capt.
Webster then set his colors union down,
when the stranger bore down to the rescue,
and proved to be the schooner Sarah, of go
tons burden, hailing from Bath. Capt. Web
ster headed the Moonlight for the shore, SO
as to have as little distance to row as posi-
BILE, before the schooner sank. Before the
Saran reached the Moonlight, the tug Conf
dence. from Portland for Boston, came
along, took the Moonlightin tow and brought
her into Portland.
The Sarah struck head on, and carried
away her flying jib-boom and damaged her
head-gear. The Moonlight is 100 tons, built
at Calais in 1884, and owned by King, Easton
and others. The crew consisted of captain,
mate and two seamen. The cargo was con-
signed to Calais parties. and supposed to be
insured there.
