The Bold Mcintyre. "

Last Sunday mention was made of
two of the oldest coasting matelots
who had been simultaneously upon
the Sound, but we unintentionally
omitted a brief notice of the younger
captain. James Mcintyre, of the
ship Richard Ill, is a native of Ar
gyleshire, Scotland, and arrived at
Victoria from London, via the Sand
witch Islands, in 1854, as second Off
Ger of the old East India Company's
ship Marquis of Butte, Among the
passengers on that ship, was the now
venerable Bishop Cridge, of the Re-
formed Church of Victoria, as well as
many others who have long since
passed away But British ships did
not suit the young Scot, and he there
fore came over to the Sound and took
passage for Frisco. After one voy-
age to the Society Islands he steered
for this region again, and since 1858
has commanded the schooner Nevada,
barks Ann Parry and Massachusetts,
barkentine Discovery, and ships Re
we're, Jabez Howes and Richard Ill,
his present ship. He has never
missed a days employment except
during the short period following the
wreck of his favorite, the Revere, on
Vancouver Island, some years ago.
Captain Mcintyre married a daugh-
ter of the late F. W. Pettygrove, at
Port Townsend, where his family

The Secretary of the Navy has or

engineer officers and the other OF
constructors-for the purpose of ex-
aiming the changes proposed by the
contractors for the three new cruisers
and the three new gunboats. These
boards are appointed in conformity
with the second clause of the con
tracts, and are to report to the chiefs

Canadian Exploration.


The Canadian Senate has adopted
the report of the Schultz Commission
appointed to gather information re-
garding the great Mackenzie River
basin, situated east and northeast of
Alaska. The Commissioner refers to
the vast extent of inland navigation
namely, 1850 miles up the Mac
kenzie being navigable for light
draught steamers, 1880 more navi-
gable for stern-wheel river steamers,
and nearly 1000 miles of lake coast.
The conclusions regarding arabic and
pastoral land came within the scope
of the Commissions inquiry. There
is possible area of 656,000 square
miles fitted for the growth of potatoes,
407, 060 square miles suitable for
barley, and $4,000 square miles
suitable for wheat. There is a
pastoral area of $4,000 square
miles, $4,000 miles of whichis
open prairie with occasional groves,
the remainder being more OF less
wooded; 274,000 square miles, in
Guiding the prairie, may be considered
as arabic land. Throughout the
arabic and pastoral area, latitude
bears no direct relation to summer,

and deciduous trees appearing as

Judge Tuley created sensation
this morning among the weekly
habitues of the Divorce Court, who
come there prepared to jot down in
their memories all the seandalous
gossip which they may hear. First
of all he roundly scored the news
papers for publishing divorce pro
ceedings in a sensational manner,
and then he ordered the courtroom
cleared of all young persons whose
morals were likely to be corrupted.
He said ai HIH 1tiIor
Il desire to say to the representa-
tives of the press that it is my earnest
wish that the newspapers cease the
publication of these divorce proceed
ings. Apart from the great wrong
done the parties seeking relief of the
courts, [ am satisfied the publication
of these divorce proceedings has a
very bad effect on public morals. 1t
they must report them, the Judges
have the right to demand that they
be correctly reported. This has not
heretofore been done. Scenes are
pictured as having occurred here
that never happened; witnesses are
reported to have made statements
that were never made, counsel to ask
questions that were never asked, and
the Judge himself to use words that
he never thought of uttering."
After this the Judge ordered the
bailiff to clear the court of all having
no business there. Two other County
Judges hearing divorce cases took
similar steps.

Wine Authorizations in the Home
of the Vine.

A report by the American Consul
at Cadiz contains a letter from the
Mayor of Jerez de la Frontera, the
capital of the sherry district, to the
Governor of Cadiz on the use of
German alcohol in the manufacture
of that wine.
He says that the condition of trade
and of the wine market could not be
more deplorable. Purchases of real
sherries are now very seldom made;
the conditions of the industry have
wholly changed, and whey ards which
represent so much capital have now
no value whatever, for the land
yields no profit and capital no inter
est. Musts which twenty years ago
readily sold for from so to 80 pesetas
per hectolitre, now sell for Ii or IA
pesetas, while frst-class wines are
still on hand in the cellars. More
wine is exported as sherry than the
whole district produces, while the
legitimate product has no sale.
The principal cause of the ruin of
sherry, the Mayor says, is the enorm-
Gus adulteration by imported Ger
man alcohol. "Ihe great variety of
brands Of complex mixtures, of names,
and limitations, has introduced the
greatest confusion in the business.
Certain cellars look like mysterious
laboratories, whose secrets nobody is
allowed to penetrate, and hence Genes
that infinite variety of prices" The
import of German alcohol to Cadiz
is increasing steadily it was $500,
600 htres in 1877, and 5.500,000 in
1886 1t is sold largely to wine pro-
ducers in Jerez, San Lucar, and other
wine raising districts. Distilled
chiefly from the beet and the potato,
inferior in quality to Spanish alcohol,
and favored by treaty tariffs, Ger
man alcohol has driven Spanish and
all other alcohols frem the Spanish
markets. The amount of import now
is about 82,500,000.
The Chambers of Commerce of
Cadiz, Jerez and other places cry out
for prohibitive duties on cheap dis
tillations, as well as on wines arti6-
cially colored or containing matter
foreign to the grape; but the Consul
thinks that the interests involved in
the importation are too great, and the
taxable income too large, to allow a
prohibitive increase of the duties
without oppositien.-New York Sun.

IMPORTANT TO
STAMP COLLECTORS (!

7 HAVE TO THANK THE PHI
4 LATELIsTS Of Hawaii for the liberal ap-
probation which my late advertisement has
received. It is safe to say that hundreds Of
thousands of Hawaiian Stamps have been sent
away without receiving more than half their
valre in return, and what Is far worse every col.
leetOr gets quantity Of useless duplicates By
the plan which l have so successfully worked
up, everyone gets only such stamps as he needs :
and besides he gets full value for each and every
kind OF Hawaiian Stamp. The prices which /
allow are better than those of ANY EUROPEAN
DEALER, and are higher than most American
Stamp Dealers pay.
I receive fresh sheets Of stamps by every
steamer and will send them on request to any
address The prices for these stamps are as low
IS those OF the largest dealers. Hawaiian Stamps
are good for exchange, and IL should be to the
mutual interest Of all our PhiIateiic friends TO
assist me in my efforts to make every hundred
stamps bring ONLY what will add to collections,
and NOT host OF worthless duplicates.

nearly Four Thousand specimens by confn-
ing myself to the above plan.

the hotel got the keys, let the female
thieves out, and then returned the keys to
the drawer in which they had been locked
up. 1t is several weeks since these daring

MCOOK'S GIGANTIC PLAN.
A Scheme to Divert the Missouris Course
and Reclaim Valuable Lpnds.

General McCook, OF Fort Leavenworth.
Kan, is engineering gigantic scheme for
the improvement of the Missouri River at
the fort, and the consequent salvage OF
thousands of acres of lotion land lying
opposite Leavenworth. Just above the
fort the river makes straight east
ern bend of over mile and quar-
ter, and, turning south and west again,
makes a gigantic turn like capital
u. The Missouri side of this lend has been
badly cut for years, aud the Rock Island
Railway has moved its road mile inland
to avoid the water. Acre after acre of
valuable land has fallen into the river.
Gen. McCook will soon ask permission of
the Secretary of War to use the prison
labor TO cut canal at the base of the
bend He estimates that with the use of
the military convicts he can, in two
months open up this canal to depth of
feet the entire length of its base, and
will, with the aid of the spring floods,
straighten out the course of the river.
The work will be of incalculgble benefit
to Leavenw orth.

conversation with a friend, said:
"Spalding has on foot scheme which

before attempted in the field of sports
Instead of returning to America via CAL
ifornia, he has hit upon the idea of taking
the two teams around the world, coming
home via London.
Has the scheme assumed definite
shape?" was asked.
yes; Mr.. Spalding is beginning TO
dicker with transportation companies.
The 10th he signed contract with 8.
Stamford Parry, General European Agent
of the Burlington Road, to look the matter
up at the European end and report whether
the plan is feasible. The 18th Mr.. Parry
left for the East. Within few DAYS
he will sail for England and the
Continent, and by the time we land
in Sydney We shall know something more
definite. The trip will be across the Indian
Ocean to India, up the Red Sea and the
Suez Canal, where side trip will be
made to Cairo and Alexandria. Thence
the route will be across the Mediterranean
to Brindisi, Italy, thence by rail and
water to Rome, Vienna, Paris, Berlin.
London, Liverpool and Dublin. Though
nothing positive can yet be said, can say
with much surety that the scheme will be
consummated, and that before we return
the All-America and Chicago teams will
have shown the world how TO play our
glorious game"
