Is required to look o.t for the tourists
of the company, the interests of the
ship, the interests of the passengers,
both spiritual and temporal, and while
he risks his life every moment he Is in
the service, when he can no longer sail
he may die In poverty or commit sui
eide us he chooses, so far as the great
world of traffic is concerned. This Is
manifestly unjust. So the average cap
tain says: "The only safe thing for me
TO do Is to make my last voyagc, that
Is, to go down with the boat. Think of
that, you who have trusted your own
lives and those of your families to these
mon. Think of IL and talk of 1t until
there Is pension or provision for those
who give their whole lives to their fell
low men.
THE JoHNsTowS BABY,
whose name Is Moses Williams, came
over on recent trip of the City of Chi
cago, according to Surgeon Peter Nc
Sweeney. Tie Johnstown baby was
named Moses because he was found on
the Hood, not exactly among the bull
rushes, but born on the bosom of the ter
rible deluge, while his mothers house
was floating down to death and destruc-
ton. 1t is not necessary to say that
Moses owned the ship. He got about
$40 from enthusiastic Americans OH
board and practically was monarch OF
all he surveyed. He was lucky to put
oil his birthday till tho time of the terri
bic flood, for pharoah's daughter in tho
shape of'Amorican generosity has res
cued him from obscurity and poverty,
and hereafter when he says my name Is
Moses Williams, | was born on the breast
OF that terrible torrent i'm Johnstown,"
the ready wallet will come forth and
Moses will be on deck even If the light
goeth out.

spokos out OF valuable carriages all the
way up to the Are of Triumph, where he
Clipped out about . cents worth of the
corner of that great work and piled up
DR.. Brown -Scquard In a chaos of clothes
and contusions. His first anxiety was
To find out, of course, whether the hy-
phcn had been knocked out of his name.
Finding that It had not been, he re-
turned to his experiments.
He also secured an old dog with thick
hearing and pronounced tagging OF the
mental powers The dog was so old
thut he had forgotten every thing and SC
blind that French soldier in red gored
trousers did not sturtle him any more
