pellers Of naval vessels against the at
tacks of submerged craft. The work of
constructing the new appliances had been
pushed forward as fast as possible, but
30 far only one of these had been finished
and attached to man-of-war.
The Llangaron was recently built
ironclad of the same size and class as
the Adamant; and to her had been at
tached the new stern defense. This was
an immense steel cylinder, entirely
closed, and rounded at the ends. 1t was
about ten feet in diameter, and strongly
braced inside. It was suspended by
chains from two davits which projected
over the stern of the vessel When sail
Ing this cylinder was hoisted up to the
davits, but when the ship was prepared
for action it was lowered until it lay,
nearly submerged. abaft of the rudder.
In this position it's ends projected about
fifteen feet on either side of the propeller
blades.
The Florida agriculturist., 1889-05-08
OWN SHE.


1t was believed that this cylinder would
effectually prevent crab from getting
near enough to the propeller or the rud-
der to do any damage 1t could not be
torn away as the stern jacket had been,
for the rounded and smooth sides and
ends of the massive cylinder would offer
no hold to the forceps of the crabs; and,
approaching from any quarter, it would
be impossible for these forceps to reach
rudder or screw.
The syndicate's little fleet arrived in
British waters late in the day; and early
the next morning it appeared about
twenty miles to the south of the Isle of
Wight, and headed to the northeast as if
it were making for Portsmouth The
course of these vessels greatly surprised
the English government and naval au-
thorities. 1t was expected that an at
tack would probably be made upon some
comparatively unprotected spot on the
British seaboard, and therefore on the
west coast Of Ireland and in ST. Georges
channel preparations of the most for
midable character had been made to de-
fend British ports against Repeller No.
II and her attendant crabs. Particularly
was this the case in Bristol channel,
where large number of ironclads were
stationed. and which was to have been
the destination of the Llangaron if the
syndicate's vessels had delayed their
coming long enough to allow her to get
around there. That this little fleet should
have sailed straight for Englands great
naval stronghold was something that the
British admiralty could not understand.
The fact was not appreciated that it was
the object of the syndicate to measure
its strength with the greatest strength
of the enemy. Anything less than this
would not avail its purpose.
Notwithstanding that so many vessels
had been sent to different parts of the
coast, there was still in Portsmouth har-
Dor large number of war vessels of va
rious classes, all in commission and
ready for action. The greater part of
these had received orders to cruise that
day in the channel Consequently it
was still early in the morning when
around the eastern end of the Isle of
Wight there appeared British fleet COM

The Weighing Social.
The oyster supper and weighing social
given last evening in Arion hall was o
pleasant occasion and seemed to be en-
Joyed by all present. 1t was gratifying
success considering the short time in
which it was gotten up. The public
spirit OF our citizens was again revealed
In good attendance, q bounteous repast
was prepared by the ladies and an oppor-
tunity offered to find the price of the
supper per pound by weighing before
and after. The rustic scales constructed
for the occasion were the feature of the
evening.
After the good things were eaten an
interesting literary and musical program
was rendered, which included several
quartettes, recitations, select reading
by Miss Flora Anderson, guitar solo by
Mrs. ]. B. Leslie and short selection on
Great Falls real estate men by Mr..
Winchester
In order to dispose of the supper of
good things it was deemed expedient to
give dinner to-day at 12 clock in Arion
hall. Everybody is invited to attend at
small expense.

The Cashier Short

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-From present
appearances Edward Silcott, cashier of
the sargeant-at-arms of the house of rep
resentatives has fled, carrying off $4,000
funds entrusted to his care. Silcott was
trusted employe whocame here from
Ohio. He was appointed by Leedom six
years ago, He had good business quail
fications and soon possessed himself of
the unlimited confidence Of his superiors.
Last Saturday he notified Leedom that
he was going to New York and would be
back Sunday. A message was read from
him dated New York, Monday morning,
saying that he had been detained but
would return that night. A similar mes
sage reached his wife in this city. AS he
did not appear Tuesday Leedom was
fearful that he had been overtaken by
some accident, but to satisfy rising sus-
picions began investigation. information
that Silcott had drawn his bank balance
deepened the suspicious and the inquiry
was pursued. The enormous office safe
could not be opened in moment, as
silcott had the combination, but when
entrance was effected it was found that
some 100000 set apart for the use Of the
paying teller was intact.
Next inquiry was made at the treasury
department, where Leedom was informed
that Silcott had called there Saturday
and had drawn about $4,000. 1t was
possible for him to draw that large sum
without exciting comment, as he had for
long time been charged with the duty
of collecting money with which the sal
aries of representatives, tsTss palI. 5lleott
was under bonds in the sum of $50,000
This is however an indemnity fund given
to the rgeant-at-arms, and Leedom who
is himself bonded in the sum of $4,000
is himself directly responsible for the
shortage. Leedom says silcott could
have taken 100000 just as easily.
