MUTINY ON THE WATER LILY.
A Gloucester Skipper Has Trouble
with His Crew.

A few days ago the fishing schooner Water
Lily of Gloucester started out on fishing
trip from Portsmouth, N. H. The wharf
was barely cleared when Ansel McClain, one
of the crew, attempted to take the wheel
from Capt. John Hiltz who was steering
The captain ordered him forward and when
he refused rushed him along. McClain went
forward and tried to pick row with Angus
McIsaac. He was finally quieted by
some other members Of the crew.
When the schooner had passed Fort
Point light McClain and McIsaac
suddenly advanced toward the captain, say
ing that they were going to run things. The
captain told them that he was in command
and that he would knock the first man down
that came aft. Whereupon the cook, Will
liam Donnell, caught up Ratchet and said:
eff there's going to be any fighting, am
going to have hand in it." Seeing the men
advancing armed with a Ratchet and
wooden stave, the captain ordered
them forward, and, as they still
advanced he rushed below and got his
revolver. In coming up on deck his pistol,
which was self-cocking was accidentally
discharged, the ball passing through his left
hand, breaking the bone of one finger and
severing several arteries. With the revolver
in his hand the captain told the men that he
would shoot them if they did not go below.
They quickly retired, the schooner was
brought into harbor, anchored, tug was
signalled and the captain brought to the
city and taken to his home and physician
called to dress his wounded hand McClain
and Donnell were arrested.

Sum Flowers Not sun.rollovers.

SunAowes are generally supposed 10
keep their faces turned constantly to the
sun. A writer proves that this rather
poetic fancy is not borne out by the
facts. He writes from his own observs.
ton Six of his finest blossoms, which
faced by a compass respectively north,
south, east, west, northeast and south
east, were visited three times each day
for week shortly after sunrise, az noon
and few minutes past sunset. The
time Of observation was the first week in
September, and the flowers were begin
aihs "a open. the florets on the circumfer-
ence of the discs.
There was no twisting Of tho flower
stalk in a circle, no turning of the flow
or after the stin--none whatever. They
faced respectively as they did at first
North, south, east, west, northeast and
southeast. In some Of the flowers there
was a tendency, as the seeds began tt
form, to dfoop or incline, toward thu
earth away from the sun. This appeared
to be a provision for keeping tn,
crowded seeds dry as they rapidly formed
and began to ripen. Careful observa
ton often shows that popular fanciei
have no groundwork in fact.

ELECTRICAL NOTES.
An Electric Matrix for Abolishtng
Type in Printing.

type III I-EluOlHS'
An invention of a Minneapolis, Mimi,
printer and an electrician of the same city
that it is claimed will do away with nova
BILE type, and reduce the cost Of printing,
spread and labor of a composing room for
newspapers and cheap books one half, is
termed the electric matrix, and may be thus
described. 1t seems to be a typewriter ap-
piled to printing, but in such a way as to in
volve stereotyping for all that it prints. The
machine works upon dry cardboard like
that which is used wet for the matrix Of a
stereotype plate, it stamps upon this card
board a perfect matrix for casting plate,
and as soon as you withdraw the
sheet from the machine the type
metal may be cast into it.
This shortens the process of stereo-
tipping one half in labor and time; but the
notable saving is said to be in type setting
and '.justifying," distributing" and correct
ing proof and other numerous composing
room operations. The matrix requires a
1-30th horsepower motor to operate it, and
there are five separate applications of cleo
tricity to the movements of tho machine. 1t
is stated that one Of these little revolution
izers" can print as fast as four ordinary
typesetters and faster than three good
printers and the machine will probably be
on the market by the first Of next month.
The world will wait to see if it is Eureka"

Last September Mrs. Sarah Smith, a
widow, aged 60 years. suddenly disappeared
from her home in Dedham, Mass Her alb
sence was not discovered for some time, and
knowing that she was slightly deranged, a
search was instituted for her by her
son, but without success. Four
months have elapsed since her disap-
pearance without hearing from her until Jan.
II, when her son received letter from her
stating that she was in England enjoying
good health. 1t appears that she wandered
into B ston and was taken i'll and taken care
of in hospital there and becoming GONZALES

and through the courtesy of the English con-

irving safely in England, when she found
friends who tenderly cared for her.

The comptroller of Connecticut has returns
from 26 banks, showing 1893 unclaimed de-
posits aggregating s75, 5000. The average
is $50, but the deposits range from
half-dollar up to $1,000. The largest
amount is he'd by Ancient Savings
Bank at New London, whose 46 deposits
amount to 5000. When the law first went
into effect few years ago the banks reported
nearly 100000. This has been reduced by
the publicity given the reports through the
newspapers and the recovery of many de-
posits by heirs 1t is noticeable that the list
of depositors is very largely made up of
women, who died without revealing to rela-
tives or friends the Whereabouts of their

fenced for Drunkenness.
There was a sad scene in the municipal
court at Portland, Me-, on Saturday last.
Among the crowd of prisoners there was one
easily distinguishable from the usual occu-
pants of the pen. His name is Rev. Benjamin
F. Pritchard, and he is regularly ordained
minister of the gospel, who has preached
throughout the state a great deal. When
his name was called to answer to the charge
of being drunk and beating his wife, he care
fully laid aside his silk hat and responded:
"Not guilty" Then the officer told
his. story how the minister was drunk
and beating his wife and when
he had finished his testimony the
prisoner Strengthened up, and, executing an
impressive gesture, said "Tis false"
Then another officer testified TO his being
drunk by the smell of his breath The min
lister replied that it was due to the rhubarb
he had been drinking. His wife, remarka-
bly, pretty woman, interceded for her hus-
band, and the charge of wife beating was
omitted He was given 80 days in the coun-
ty Jail, but appealed, and was ordered to re-
cognize in 500 for his appearance at the
April term of the superior court As he can
secure no bondsmen, it is probable that he
~sill remain in Jail until then.

Revelations of an Autopsy.

An autopsy on the remains Of Nathaniel
w. Ellis, prominent business man of Man.
chester, N. H., who died from meningitis fol-
lowing an operation at the Massachusetts
general hospital for the removal of an abscess
on the bone of The ear, revealed the fact of
badly diseased bone in the head that gave
indication of having been in that
condition for some time. Inquiry de-
veloped the fact that, four years ago
last summer while hurrying to catch a train
at the beach, Mr.. Ellis was thrown back
ward upon his head in a wagon, striking
with great violence, and the diseased bone
was the result of that injury. The bone was
found to be perforated to the brain, so that
death must have resulted from this cause
within very short time, had he survived the
surgical operation which he underwent and
the attack Of meningitis which followed.
