STORMY WEATHER AT SEA.
Two of the Pilot Boat Pets Crew
Supposed to be Lost.


Supposed to be Lost.
Yesterday was stormy day off the coast,
and at noon the wind reached a velocity Of
twenty miles an hour at the signal station
in the city.
The pilot boat Mary Odell came up from
| Tybee last night, and reports heavy
weather off shore Capt. w. j. Thompson
saps that his crew brought the information
| that a rowboat with two boatmen, Joe Villa
Tonga (colored) and a Russian sailor
called Tom, from the pilot boat Pet, was
swamped just before davbreak Saturday,
| fifty miles southeast of Martins Industry
| light ship. The boat had taken Capt Chas
| q. Maxim aboard the Russian bark Bertha.
and on the way back to the pilot boat
| the hour being dark and the sea rough, it
is believed that the boat filled and went
down, as the Pet was outside all day looking
Capt Maxim brought the bark into
the roads, and when he came
up to the city last night
no tidings of the boatmen had been OBJ
tanned. Tde sea was very rough, he said,
and the wind was blowing a gale from the
northeast when he boarded the Bertha. He
himself was thrown against the rail in at
tempting TO board the vessel, and was hurt
in his side. He saw the boatmsn put off
from the bark, and he supposed that
they reached the Pet until he
learned otherwise, after putting into
Tybee. When the pilot boat came
into the roads no learned that the men we're
not on board. Two sailors from the Bertha
were put aboard the Pet and she went out
side again TO search for the missing men.
Capt Maxim says that there is possibility
of their having been picked up by some
vessel bound TO the southwark
Capt. Thompson also reports that the
barge Florida, from Port Royal for Savan-
nah, with 400 tons OF phosphate rock and 80
tons of guano for Hammond, Hull 81 Co.,
and in tow by the tug Sophia, sprang a
leak on the way over, and had to anchor at
Long Island. The tug Sophia came on to
the CITY for pumps aud extra hands, aud
went back last night to the relief of the
barge, but it was not known whether she
would get there in time to keep the barge
above water. 1t is believed that the rough
sea caused the barge to spring the leak
Two schooners, two barks and brig came
into the roads yesterday, and all report
rough weather outside.

A Great COMPANY.

The Mutual Life Insurance Company,
since its organization in 1S43, has paid to
its policy-holders $272, 4Sl ,339 SO. The
wonderful growth Of the company is due
in large degree TO the treedom from re-
striction and irksome conditions in the
contract and to the opuortuliti $ for in
vestmelt which are offered ia addition to
indemnity in case Of death.
The Mutual Life was the first to practic
ally undertake the simplifcation of the in
surance contract and strip it Of verblage

Vulnerable refugees against claims of p licy-
holders who had, however unwittingly,
departed from the strict letter of tho agree
ment. That this appealed powerfully to
the popular taste is evident from the fact
that in 1888 the company wrote over $l03,-
900, 900 Of new insurance.

The pope, however, thinks 80 highly Of the
value of the services of DIR. O'Connell in
Rome that be is unwilling to confer upon
him the Episcopal dignity, and the council
will, therefore, make another recommeda-

three persons, who are classed as dignus,
dignior and dignissimus. DR.. O'Connell, in
the present instance, was dignissimus. 1t is
not improbable at all that the priest who
was recommended as dignicr will now be
recommended as dignissimus.

the class of light-fngered and dexterous

to have caught the t ief and had his goods

keeper by the coat tail and hung on until
the thief had made good his escape. For
this Broely had Williams lodged IN the bar

WEATHER PROVERBS.
What the Little Birds Tell While
Nesting and on the Wing.

nesting ana on uno wing.
That birds have long been guides to sail
ors and agriculturists every one who knows
anything about popular weather prognostics
is well aware. Not only have the fight
and general action Of birds been noted by
all civilized nations but among barbarous
tribes in this and other lands the migratory
habits Of the feathered tribe have discounted
the prognostics Of government signal bu-
reaus. Wind, rain and other atmospheric
changes are predicted by those who mar
rowly watch the migration Of birds, and
sailors in particular, who are close observers
around them and the waters beneath them,
base their prognostics on all the peculiar
phases of land, water and sky and the ele-
ments OF life which people them.
Among the birds which serve to guide
the sailors to look out for squalls, the sailor
expects wind when the cormorants fly
landward. If the gull scars to lofty nights
and circling round utters shrill cries, a
storm is approaching. If the parrots
whistle on shipboard It will rain. If thew
dress their feathers and are wakeful it will
storm the next day. II the petrels gather
under the stern of ship bad weather will
follow. The stormy petrol surely betokens
stormy weather, and no sooner do they
gather in numbers under the wake of
ship than sailors prepare to meet an I'M
pending tempest.
Hunters are close observers of the habits
of birds, and many prognostics are learned
from the vocabulary of an experienced
hunter, who will stay in doors in the morn
ing when an amateur hunter will be
tempted out by clear sky, to come back in
the rain, or who will find that moderate
temperature in the morning is no sure pre-
cursor of warm day. Among the prog
notes the hunter draws from birds a few
will suffice
