City Marshal Bunker returned from Mas
sachusetts Saturday morning. He met men,
bers of the Massachusetts District Police at
So. birmingham, and ascertained that it was
the intention to have Bowen first tried in
August for the robbery at Milford, Mass,
where the penalty imposed would probably
be from FIVE to seven years in State Prison.
No reward has been offered in connection
with this robbery, and the officers interested
| in the rewards for obvious reasons are max
ing an effort to have the prisoner first tried
in some county where rewards have been
| offered. There are two cases against Bowen
in Connecticut, three in Rhode Island, and
seven or eight in Massachusetts,. 1t will be
some years before the detectives who were
concerned in the capture of Bowen realize
on all Of the rewards, even if they are all
paid when legally due. Marshal Bunker
has left his interests in the matter with the
nnlice authoritiea of Maasachuaetta

A Her.isl. shark ses.y.

y L.
The Melbourne Argus prints the fol-
lowing, under date Sydney, oct. ID:
Thomas Punch, Fred Riley and Ed.
munds were indulging in their usual
pull in their club skiff In the llarbor this
morning. As they were passing between
Bradley's Head and Clark Island, the
scene of the late fatal boat accident, they
were Mortified to see Q shoal Of sharks
tossing about q human body. They
pulled nearer the spot, and then discov.
cred the body to be that Of q female COM
pletely dressed and swollen to an enor-
nous size by long immersion in the
water. The party endeavored to make
fast the body to the boat, but the sharks,
surrounding it, passed under the frail
boat 30 viciously that the occupants b.
came alarmed and pulled away to give
notice to the police. Mr.. Tooth's small
steam yacht was within hail and quickly
reached the spot; but the sharks were 60
fierce that they tossed the body quite out
out Of the water, and 20 terrified the
men on the yacht that they were Obliged
to wait till the water police arrived BE-
fore they could secure the body. Then
horrible sight was witnessed. As the
remains were being lifted into the boat
the sharks fiercely attacked them and
tore away nearly al the left side. The
remains were eventually removed to the
Circular Quay morgue.

Found Her at Last.

Thirty-three years ago, q dispatch
from Montreal says, Milliam Henry
Parker sailed with his newly welded
wife from Liverpool for Canada in the
ship William and Mary. On the voyage
Parker was swept overheard and was
mourned as drowned. Two years later
the widow, who had come here, married
again, and several children blessed the
union. A few days ago an elderly stran-
ger called at the house and asked for
Mrs. Parker. She responded and recog-
nized him as her husband.
He said he had been rescued by Port
uguese ship and landed in South Ameri-
ca. He could not get a passage home
and determined to 20 to the interior to
seek his fortune. He did 90, writing to
his wife at her parents home in England.
These letters she never received. He re-
ceived no reply and believed her lost
also. Time brought prosperity, and at
last he determined to search for his wife
in Canada. He came on and soon locat.
ed her, only to find her the wife of an.
other. A long consultation took place
between them, and then Parker depart
ed, leaving = check for large sum and
his blessing.

Railroad Aoeidents a.d Human Life.

2,13S; employees killed, 2.070; employees in
jured. 20,148; other persons killed, 1897;
other persons injured, 5000; total per.
sons killed. $3.50; total persons injured,
25,Sss.
But the reports do not cover the total
mileage Of the country; only 92.792 per
cent. Of it. If the accident rate was the
same on the roads not reporting, the to.
tai number killed was 5,6S3, and the total
injured, 27,8SS. These are the returns
made by the railroad companies them.
selves. and they cannot well be suspected
Of exaggeration. Neither is there, on the
other hand, any reason to suppose that
they are not, in most cases, complete and
prepared with perfect good faith.
An idea Of how great the risk is to rail.
road employees is shown by the records
OF the Brotherhood Of Railroad Brake

All last fall the farmers of Connecticut
inveighed bitterly because the wet
weather was running their potato crop.
They had just begun to follow the ad-
vice of leaders in agricultural expert
ments, and had substituted potatoes for
tobacco, which had proved an ur,satis-
factory crop. Jack Frost used to get
along 30 early that the tobpcco plants
would get nipped before they could be
harvested. But now they have aban.
doned tobacco Jack Frost does not seem
to come at all. On the other hands wet
weather ruined the potatoes.
In September 1t was reported that not
half the farmers were digging their tu-
bers because they found them rottes,
and It was prophesied that the price
would 60 out Of sight. II o man could
get enough to keep him through the

peared to be on the verge Of dissolution
