Block Island. Jan 13-Up to IL a. m. today the
sch Pocabontas remained In The same position.
Tine wind is blowing 40 miles an hour from SW.
causing all work upon her TO be suspended for the
crescent. Seven men. who worked at the pumps
all last night had to be taken of this morning by
the life saving crow. The general impression Is
that the Pocahontas is doomed. Her owners en-
terrain but little hope of saving her. The vessels
cargo, consisting Of 2250 tons coal is insured in
the Delaware and the vessel herself lightly insured
in the Boston Marine, Providence, Washington
and other New England companies.
The cause OF the stranding of the PocahOntas is
hontas struck into thick fog south of Long Islnnd.
The strong cross tides which play havoc with ves-
sells between Montauk Point and Block Island.
and which have landed so many golfers high aud
dry on South Point, ran like a slulceway all day
Saturday, and these soon had the Pocahontas out
out of her course.

The Photoramic Lantern.

N. Y. COmmerclal AdYertlSer.I
The photoramic lantern is the name of
a new device by which q Photographic
artist claims to be able to project upon
screen or wall, not mere fixed objects,
but scenes of life and movement, such as
are observed on the white table in the
camera obscura. The invention includes
a peculiar sort of photographers camera
OF about foot square. The instrument
is pointed at particular moving object,
and by turning the handle number of
photographs are taken every second.
These successive phases of q scene in
movement are then converted into trans
parencies and placed in succession upon
long strip, which is wound on rollers
and passed through the Photographic
lantern, with results which appear to be
similar to the well known philosophical
TOW. the "Zoetrope."

At the dinner station, where we stopped
one day ON certain Tennessee railroad,
almost the first sight which greeted the
eyes of those who got off was rough
burial box on the platform, and seated.
near it was an old black woman with
handkerchief TO her eyes. When kindly
asked the cause of her sorrow she pointed
to the box and replied:
''De ole mans in dar."
"Your husband?'
"Yes; died two days ago back yere in
the kentry."
"And what are you doing with the
body here?"
81 wants to bury it up at Charlestown,
but hain't got money huff to take it on

"What nonsense!' exclaimed a man,
as he came forward. whats the diff

She's determined to take it to Charles
town"
"For what reasonl" asked the passen-
ger who had put all the previous ques.
tions.
"'Kase, sab, all de TO chill'n is buried
up dar, an his mudder an sister, an de
poo ole man will be lonesome down
yere."
"What bosh!" growled the kicker.
Look herer whispered the other, as
he went over to him, sid rather be a
niger with her soul than to be a white
man with yours She's right. Let the
family dead sleep together"
He entered the express office, paid for
the shipment of the body, bought the
widow a ticket to Charlestown, and then
dropped $40 gold piece in her hand and
said:
''Give him a decent funeral, nanny,
and this will put up a headboard to mark
the grave
