AtrociOus Cruelty on the Sea

One OF the most atrocious cases Of
cruelty ever known in the annals OF tho
sea has been disclosed by tho finding Of
anaval court Of inquiry in connection
with tho voyage Of the British ship
Macedon, from Philadelphia to Hiogo,
Japan. The Macedon left Philadelphia
In command OF Jesse Willis Jones, mas.
ter, and after protracted voyage Of 2is
days reached her destination with her
crew reduced in number by death and
disease and tho survivors half dazed
from the brutal treatment to which they
had been subjected at the hands of the
ships officers.
Five unfortunates succumbed to their
tortures and we're thrown overheard to
be devoured by school Of sharks that
followed in the wake of the ship. On
tho arrival of the Macedon at Hiogo,
out of total surviving complement of
seventeen persons on board thirteen
were suffering from scurvy, only the
master, mate. cook and steward having
been exempted from the symptoms of
that dreaded disease.
OF the five men who died at sea, the
evidence showed that Edward Grants
death occurred on Sept. 25, 1887, of
scurvy, after having been the victim of
wauton act Of cruelty on the part of
the mate. Eight days before his death
Grant was triced up to the mainmast by
Cox, and was kept at work uatil the
morning of the day before he died.
John Miller was lost overheard on Oct.
Z, and the master allowed tho man to
sink without milking any effort to res
cue him, not even causing boat to be
lowered. On Nov. 10 while suffering
from scurvy James Armstrong was sent
aloft on tho mizzenmast by the boat
swain to scrapo the mast, a task that
was not Of an urgent nature. While
performing thls unnecessary duty Arm
strong fell to the deck and died of his
injuries on the following day. Alvin
Chapel and Angelo Blanchi died of
scurvy, tho former on Dec. 13, and the
latter six days later. For Blanchi was
reserved tho most shocking acts of
cruelty, he having been dragged along
the decks on several occasions by Cox
and Beveridgc while in dying condi-
ton.
During the voyage of the Macedon
one Of tho stewards feet were bitten off
by shark when the ship was thrown
on her beam ends by sudden squall.-

PRICE THREE CENTS.
Her Dough Was All Wedding Cal

Her Dough Was All Wedding Cake.
In brown holland apron she stood in the
kitchen;
Her sleeves were rolled up, and her checks
all aglow;
Her hair was coiled neatly, when l, indis-
creetly,
Stood watching while Nancy was kneading
the dough.
Now, who could be neater, or brighter. or
sweeter,
Or who hum a song so delightfully."- low
Or who look so slender, so ograceful, so otendcr,
As Nancy, sweet Nancy, while kneading
the dough'
How deftly she pressed it, and squeezed it,
caressed it,
And twisted and turned it, now quick and
now slow;
Ali me, but that madness I've paid for in
sadness,
Twas my heart she was kneadins as well
as the dough.
At last when she turned from her pan to the
dresser,
She saw me and blushed, and said shyly
please go,
Or my bread I'll be spelling. in spite of my
toiling,
II you stand here and watch while I'm
kneading the dough-"
begged for permission TO stay-she'd not
listen;
The sweet little tyrant said: "Nc, sirl moi
moi"
Yet when had vanished on being thus ban
ished,
My heart stayed with Nancy while knead-
ing the dough.
I'm dreaming, sweet Nancy, and see you in
fancy.
Your heart, love, has softened and pitied
my woe;
And we, dear, are rich in dainty, wee
kitchen;
Where Nancy, my Nancy, stands kneadins
the dough.

A Glass of Wine Changes History.

n UluSS VI Vluc OHuuScS uIStOfys
A glass of wine changed the history
of France for nearly 90 years. Louis
Philippe, King of the French, had a
son, the Duke of Orleans, and heir to
the throne, who always drank only a
certain number of glasses of wine, be-
cause even one more made him tipsy.
On memorable morning he forgot to
count the number Of his glasses and
took one more than usual. When en-
tering his carriage hc stumbled,
frightening tho horses and causing them
to run. In attempting to leap from the
carriage his head struck the pavement
and he soon died. That glass of wine
overthrew the Orleans rule. confscated
their property of $40, 900, 900, and sent
the whole family iuto exile.---[ Cham
