who introduced himself as Prof. Morand, came

WRECKED on A CORAL REEF.
Hardshipa of the Crew of tho Bark
Henry James.

The Pacific mail steamer Mariposa arrived
at San Francisco on Saturday from Sidney,
via Auckland and Honolulu. She reports
that on May 20 she rescued from Palmyra
island, an uninhabited coral reef, about 1900
miles north of the Samoan group, the crew
and passengers of the British bark Henry
James, Capt. Latmer, which was wrecked
there on April 16 while bound from New
Castle, N. S. W., to San Francisco. The
Henry James struck the reef IS miles from
Palmyra. Among the passengers were sew
eral women and children All on bolrd took
to small boats, and with the few provisions
which could be hastily collec, led set sail for
the island. When they arrived there few
deserted huts were found and the women
and children were made as comfortable as
possible. No clothing or other
effects were saved, except a
pair of blankets, which were thoroughly
drenched. A few days later the boat in
charge of tho first mate with the boatswain
and three seamen left the island for Samoa,
which was reached in 10 days An attempt
was made to board the wreck, which sill
lay on the reef, but she was found to be set
Ting down, and it was impossible to obtain
any more provisions from her. When the
small boat reached Samoa, the disaster was
reported, and a steamer sent to rescue the
survivors a short time afterward. Capt.
Hayward of the steamer Mariposa, while off
Tutnila, was notified of the wreck of
the Henry James by Lieut..
Cressap Of the United States steamer Mohi-
can, and he left for Palmyra at once When
be arrived there he found the provisions of
the party to be rather low, but they had
been able to subsst upon cocoanuts and q
few other articles found on the island. No
serious illness hid occurred. The outcasts
were given liberal donation of clothes and
money by the officers and passengers of

Peculiarities of American Eyes,

The efforts of tho war department to
secure field glass for the. service OF
greater power than tho one they now
use has discovered the fact that the eyes
Of the average American are closer to-
gether than those of men in foreign
countries. The double glass, known as
the field glass, now used is weaker than
that used in the armies of Europe. 1t
is OF only from five to six powers-en-
tircly too weak for the purpose. The
only glass they can get of sufficient
power is a single spyglass, which is de-
frctive in that it does not take in a
broad enough field. This is very SER
ious defect in tho equipment of the
American army but there seems to be
no immediate prospect of its correction
because our eyes arc SO close together.
Some of the colored troops may be able
to use a different glass, but the white
Yankee soldier cannot overcome this
national popularity. The best military
field glass in use is that with which the
German army is supplied. An attempt
was mado to adopt them by tho war de-
partmcnt, but it was found that the
eyes OF the glasses were so far apart
that they could not be used by Ameri.
cans. The department is studying now
