The sailors worked with will until

The order was promptly Obeyed, and
then six Of the crew, called out by name,
went into the boats and pulled away
from the gangway, under command of
the first mate. Boat after boat pulled
up to the gangway, received its load
and pulled away. There was no more
rushing, for there was death in the eyes
of the young mate and the captain, who
had taken his place by his side.

into the boat and the last of the crew
followed. Then a panic seemed to seize
them and they pushed off. leaving the
captain and mate upon the doomed
steamer, as long tongues of flame leaped
out toward the boat. Through this
fiery barrier the two men dashed and
were seen striking out for the boat.

CONFORMATION OF sUNoL.
Robert Bonner Speaks With En-
thusiasm of His New Purchase.

The owner of Maud S can afford to
speak with enthusiasm of her young
rival, Sunol. He has tried the queen
she has twice lowered her record in his
hands-and he knows her greatness.
He believes that the daughter of Harold
and Miss Russell can do better than she
has yet done, and yet he cannot close
his eyes to the fact that a thTee-year-old
which trots III 2:l015, and which has
been timed quarter in thirty seconds,
may rate, with age, to lower mark than
2:0S$I. The best way is to test the
question in public. The queen, and the
princely daughter of the house of Elee-
tioneer, should be brought together on
a good track some time next year. and
each be driven for all that is in her.
Bonner says: 1.-THE more see of SunOl
the Lore am impressed with her Won
derful conformation. Hickok tells ME
that she has more speed than even his
great PAGER, AdoniS, and Marvin says
she is the only trotter he has ever driven
a quarter in 80 seconds. AS she is only
baby, it remains to be seen whether
she can. when she natures, lower Maud
SIS record; but as Gov. Stanford puts it,
| think she can If any horse can do it.
Still. as you are aware, the public do
not know all that Maud s is capable of
doing"

WHIPS AND TIPS.
Gossip About Horses, Horsemen
and Their Doings.

Everybody seems anxious to find out
how much MIR. Bonner paid for the
great Sunol. but as yet all remain in
ignorance. A great many stories and
surmises have been set afiOat, the latest
one squeezed out of the New Yorker by
a California reporter being as follows:
II am bound on honor not to divuige
the exact figure. However. I'll say
more to you than haveyet said to any
one. gave more than $4,000 and less
than 10000: strike your own average"
Without counting on his figures, the
reporter asked: "Well, did you throw
In your blood mare Lucy Cuyler with
S45.000?" II didn't say $4,000, did IL"
Without waiting for an answer Mr.. Bon
ner added: "LucY Cuyler did not go
with the bargain. She still belongs to
me, and is at present with my stud"
There is a possibility that Budd Doble
will handle the lines over Maud S next
year. To reporter for San francisco
paper MIR. Bonner said recently that
one of his sons had asked him to let
Maud s go into the hands of Budd
Doble, who desired to bring her to this
coast, where he fully expected she would
materially lower her record. There is
great probability of my acceding to my
sons request" he said. "You see," he
added, "Murphy, my trainer for over
twenty years, died few months ago,

wishes"
Martin Bergen, the jockey, said re.
Gently that he had earned $4,000 this
year. This is large amount for MN,
as he has only come to the front within
twelve months. He is likely to soon
again sign with Capt. Sam Brown for
1890. Garrison earned closed to $4,000
this year. The colOred boy Barnes
pocketed $4,000, while Isaac Murphy,
Taylor, Hayward. Mclaughlin and
Littletield, exclusive of gifts, earned
from $1,000 to $4,000 each. These are
neat sums of money for work In the
saddle, but when the danger and the
labor and skill are considered, the pay
is not too large.
Many rich American owners have
shown much liberality to their trainers,
jockeys and stable employees ON occa-
sions when they have won valuable
stakes. but the way they do things in
Australia makes their gifts appear
small. The cable announces that w.

COURTsHIP In TURKEY.
1t Is Conducted With the Utmos

1t Is Conducted with the Utmost
DecOrum Through Broker.
The most unsatisfactory eourtships of
all must be the Turkish, where the can
didate for matrimony is forbidden to
see the bride, and must act through
broker. generally an old woman, who
interests herself for a consideration. and
who can usually be bought by the one
who pays the most.
Wien the knot is tied then for the
first time the bridegroom sees the brides
face. Often the result is disappoilt-
ment, and the promised nymph or houri
turns out to be plain, ignorant and I'M
companionable. No wonder, with such
possibilities. the path of divorce is made
very easy in the land of the Turk.

Unless unforeseen obstacles are encoun-

ginning Of the next fiscal year, July l,
contracts will have been LEI for the con-
struction OF new war vessels, which will
in the aggregate increase the tonnage Of
the navy nearly 1900 tons. Although
the majority Of the vessels will be small
craft, compared with the monster IRON
clads Of Euroge, they will embody in
their construction the latest improved
ideas Of high speed and heavy ornament,
and will he very formidable ships Of war.
When Secretary Whitney relinquished
his Office he left as legacy to his success
scr the responsibility for building eight
new vessels, authority for whose construc-
ton was given by the fftieth congress.
The list includes three 2OOO-ton cruisers
or gunboats, vessels somewhat larger than
the Yorktown, just finished, and similar
to that vessel in many respects, although
embodying many new features. There
will be two 3O0O-ton cruisers. These ves-
sells will be smaller by 100 tons than the
new cruiser Newark, but by law they are
required to attain the extraordinary speed
Of twenty knots an hour.
