MIp.ocEAN PERIL.
How an Atlantic Steamer Was Saved
from Destruction by Fire.

The following is from an article in
the North american RevieU by Capt.
Kennedy, formerly commander of the
Germanic; Many persons think that
too much power Is vested In the cap
tain, but as accidents occur suddenly
there is no time to hold meeting and
discuss what is best to be done; the
most serious results might ensue while
the question was being decided.
In order to prove the truth OF my
statement will narrate ono incident
from my experience. which took place
when was in command of the Baltic
in 1873.
We were about halfway across the
Atlantic on our passage to Liverpool.
| went down to the saloon that day, as
usual when the weather permitted, to
take my lunch, and was sitting at the
table talking with those near me.
Happening to turn around l saw my
servant entering the door and was in
stantly aware by his agitated appear
ance that something was wrong.
He came to me and, speaking in a
low tone, so as not to be heard by
others, said: "The ship is on fire for
ward, SIR" For one moment my heart
leaped into my throat and my blood
ran cold. Fire ON board ship in the

large quantity Of cotton on board, and
as we had but few Storage passengers
1t had been slowed in the compart-
ment usually allotted to them, and
realized at once the danger we were
in. Not wishing to alarm any one ]
quietly laid down my knife and fork,
arose from my chair and went on deck.
The sight that met my eyes was ap.
palling. Smoke and flame fully feet
in height were pouring out OF the for.
ward ventilators. The hose had been
connected and the pumps started. All
the men were at work making every
effort to subdue the fire, but thus far
had made no visible impression upon
it. Although no alarm had been given
the passengers soon heard that the
ship was on fire and one and all rushed
on deck. They stood pale and terri
fed, looking alternately at the flames
and at me to see what steps was
about to take; but there was no scream
ing nor any sign of panic.
soon discovered that nothing could
be done through the ventilators and
ordered them to be covered with tar
paulins. l then had the matches re-
moved to reach the source from which
the fire originated. As soon as the
hatchway was opened dense black

Photoerapl,ers, cats.

Doubtless the most interesting cats, those
which present the best opportunities for
study, are the property OF photographers.
Ray d. Chapman, of this csy, had two cats
which he taught to lie in bed and DO covered
like the human being. lockwood, of Union
square, in this city, posed kitten in shoe,
picture which has attracted the attention
of the whole civilized world, and he has
posed others successfully.
Altman, at No. la Fifth avenue has posed
many cats. One posed for him while he
painted its portrait, and a noble pose it gave,
with serious, pathetic eyes, in which is the
look of genius.
The many pictures Of the cat belonging to
Mrs ]. B. Lewis, No. 1915 broadway, and
which adorn panel at the entranceof her
studio have attracted universal attention
OF these / think "Puss in Clover" is the most
artistic She lies in bed Of clover in bias

expression OF her face is beautiful have

disposed" which is a marvel OF ennui, lazi-
ness and luxury. New York Star.

Fruit shortcakes.

Fruit shortcakes are by no means so
warmly appreciated as they deserve.
There are many people even yet who
have never tried them except in straw
berry time. and some Git is fact,
strange as it may seen) who have not
SO much as heard or thought Of any
fruit shortcake but strawberry short
cakel Yet they may be made of al
most any kind of soft fruit or berries,
and an orange shortcake is almost as
delicious as the strawberry itself. A
mistake is made, | think, in making
the shortcake too rich. 1t Is not only
more wholesome. but may be eaten
more freely and frequently without
cloying the appetite. and with bet
ter relish, if made quite plain--severe-
ly so, according to some rich stand
ards. Make the shortcake light and
of generous thickness, and use plenty
OF fruit 1t will split more smoothly
If hot knife is used. Another great
improvement on the common practice:
After the fruit has been spread ON the
under crust. lay on the upper crust
with its upper side down, next the
fruit, so that tho last layer of fruit
may be spread on the fresh-cut, inner
surface, of the upper crust. Try this
once, and you will always practice it.
And do not be too sparing of butter
If you want the best results. There is
no handler tea dish than a good short
cake, and some suitable fruit is always
in season. - Good housekeeping.

"Bad wordr societies.

bad word societies are the latest
City schools. They are destined to do
a deal of good that Is of nature that
generally lies beyond the reach of
teachers. There are few play grounds
attached to boys schools in this coun-
try where language is not constantly
used which would grieve and astound
the mothers of those who utter and of
those who hear them.
The rules of the Bad Word Society
are usually not written down; but they
are something like this; Zone cent
fine for every bad word spoken; every
boy TO report his own bad words to the
treasurer and pay up; no telling of
any other boys bad word; the money
to 90 to the school library.
This Is simple and practical. Per-
haps the scheme might be enlarged a
little so as to include the grosser forms
of bad grammar. such as III done ii, !"
''them cabbages' and "you was" 1t
is highly absurd that the boys who
have been going to grammar school
for years should violate the most rudi-
mental laws of grammar every time
they speak ten consecutive words.
But the main point is to destroy the
habit of polluting the mouth and cor
rupting the heart by the use of words
which they call "bad." Every boy
knows what they are, for no one can
keep beyond the sound of them. They
pollute the air OF every street and are
heard more or less wherever there is a
company of boys playing together.
They partly cause the dread that
mothers feel when they see their sons
going for the first time to boys school.
The mothers watch their boys de-
parture with mixture of pride. pleas
ure and apprehension. and turn away
from the window at last with sigh,
because they know that few older boys
yet realize what duty they owe to
younger ones in the way Of good ex-
ample.

Authors and Violet Ink.

Violet ink is becoming distinctively
the authors ink. 1t Is curious how
general the use is spreading among
authors. The poet Whittier rarely
uses ink of any other color, and man
uscript or notes from his pen in black
ink are only occasional. Mr.. Howells
is entirely given to employing violet
ink in his work, and Julian Hawthorne
only uses black when his favorite ink
is unobtainable. Business and social
letters written by the Century editor,
Richard Watson Glider. are invaria-
bly, in violet ink. Charles Dudley
Warmers passion for the color extends
to the violet flower. It is extremely
seldom that any copy by him is seen
in black ink. Bayard Taylor always
dipped his pen in stand of violet
ink when in his study. Among
women writer's, strange enough, the
practice does not seem so marked.
Mrs. Custer is given to it. and like
wise is Augusta Evans Wilson and
Grace Greenwood. One explanation
of the practice is undoubtedly that the
violet color is softer to the eye, and
this is an important consideration with
people who constantly use the pen.-

credit of manifesting wonderful self
control under the exciting circum-
stances.

A Specialized Horse.

According to the american Druggist,
there is a horse in Detroit that wears
spectacles. The farmer that owned
him having come to the conclusion,
from various symptoms, that the ami
NAL was short-sighted, got an oculisi
TO tnke the necessary measurement,
and had pair of spectacles manu-
featured for him. They are made to
fasten firmly into the head-stall, so
that they do not shake out of place.
At first the horse appeared startled by
this addition to his harness, but he
soon got used to his glasses and liked
them. .'In fact" says his owner,
"when / turn him out to pasture he
is uneasy and uncomfortable without
his goggles, and last Sunday he hung
around the barn and whinnied so
plaintively that 4 put the head-stall
and goggles on him, and he was so
glad that he rubbed my shoulder with
his nose. Then he kicked up his heels
and danced down the pasture" Ho
could see what no was going to eat
then.

A story for Bon WANTS.


One man invited another to din
ner at the Manhattan Club, of which
both were members. 1t was agreed
that the one who arrived first should
order the meal. Some time after the
appointed hour the host of the oc-
casion found his guest at table in a
remote corner of the cafe. Have you
orderedp" asked the host. Eyes.
ssWell. so have H. was tho answer.
Both laughed. and then the host with
a flash of the eye inquired what soup
his guest had ordered. The soup was
named and the host answered: Then
we've ordered the same dinner; any
man with proper notions Of sequence
in dining would follow that soup with
just what I've ordered" The scientific
diners compared menus and found that
the orders agreed in every particular.
Both dinners and all the wines ordered
were served. -Nea0 York Letter.

TIE industrial outlook of Arizona
for the coming winter is better than 1t
has been for the last FIVE years The
mining industry is rapidly developing
throughout the entire territory. The
rain has given abundance of pasturage,
which will return abundance of fat
steers. The ranchmen are all putting
IN large acreage of cereals, which
means large harvests next year. The
tide Of immigration is setting in, the
health prospector is setting his face in
the direction of Arlzona's health giving
cline, and ere the winter months have
set in there will be hundreds of new
faces and new energies in our midst
which will tend to give new impetus
to the material interests of tho terri
tory. If the political outlook was
one-tenth as favorable; if the admins
tration of the affairs Of the government
was settled. and those who are lawfully

Settled the Matter.

The Select knights, A 0. q. w,
have Just concluded the session of
their Supreme Legion at Kansas City
and thrown overheard ali the amend
ments to their constitution that were
adopted at a special session IN St.
LOUIS last May. At its inception the
order was organized on the basis that
no one could become member with
out he was member Of the A. o. Q.
W., although it has no connection at
all with the latter organization. In
the course of time the order spread
over the country ard became a sue
cess. In the last two years, however,
an agitation was started having for its
object the repeal of that constitutional
provision limiting membership to those
belonging to the A. o. q. W. A hot,
bitter discussion ensued, the Grand
Lodge of New York taking the initia
tive in favor of the repeal OF the pre-
vision in question. Several other
grand lodges joined it in the fight,
and the course taken by these juris-
dictions in actually agreeing to admit
as members men other than those
belonging to the United Wsrkmen
caused vertiable storm of protests
against their action. But the
strength developed by those in favor
| of the repeal was such that they called
special session OF the highest tri
bunal of the order, the Supreme
Legion, last May in st. Louis, and
amended the constitution to suit theil
views. The action of the Supreme
Legion came near disrupting thu
order, but calmer counsels prevailed
and caused the repeal of the amend
ments of May last at the Kansas Cit.
