FIERCE FIGHT FOR LIFE.
Steamer on Lake Michigan Has
q Terrible Exprrieuce with storm.

Steamer Roanoke on Lake Michigan Has
q Terrible Experience with storm.
CHICAGO, Feb. 25.-The steamship
Roanoke, Capt. Martin, which left Mil
waukee for Grand Haven Wednesday
evening, just before the storm, reached
here late Thursday night, after one Of
the most terrific fights with wind and
wave ever made by a boat on the lakes.
She covered with ice four in ches
thick when she reached this port. the
cabins were flooded to the roof, and the
crew completely exhausted. Only thr zee
tons Of coal, enough to have lasted o
q single hour longer, remained in hey
bunkers. ,
The vessel was in sight of Grand
Haven lights at / O'Clock Thursday
morning, but owing to the terrific north
wester, was compelled to put about. The
sea was running 30 heavily that every
sea swept i've the steamer. An attempt
was made toreach shelter at Milwaukee,
but it was impossible. The storm also
drove the steamer past Waukegan and
Kenosha. Finally, after fighting the
gale for fifteen hours after turning back
from Grand Haven, the steamer found
shelter in this harbor.

SHUT IN WITH A MAD SEA LION.
An Express Messenger Has an Exciting
Time With Live Freight.

Frank Terry, Wells, Fargo & Co. express
messenger; his helper and baggage man had
thrilling experience on a Santa Fe train near
Argentine, Kan. Sunday with big sea lion
which. with three others. had been shipped
from San Francisco to New York. The animals
had been brought down from the Seal Islands
In the Pacific for the owner OF geological
garden in New York. They were taken from
the ship, where they had been in water, and
shipped in three large wooden cages well con-
structed and strongly bound by hemp ropes.
The intense heat and absence of water proved
disastrous for the animals The first one of
them died ut Denver. ON the train between
that point and Kansas City one of She males
went mad and attacked his mate killing her
almost instantly by biting her head nearly off.
He howled most dismally for several hours.
and the occupants of the car were considera-
bly, frightened. The animal finally Quilted
down and gave no further trouble until Argen-
tine was cached Then he became furious
again and raising himself on his fore fins used
his tail with such force that he broke the cage
into pieces and then made an attack on En-
press Messenger Terry. who jumped on a pile
OF express matter, but was quickly driven
from that position. The men at last made
their escape through the side door of the car
and closed it behind them. The seal ragged for
five minutes and then dropped dead. The
carcass, weighing SIS pounds. was taken to
Armour's packing house and skinned. The re-
naming sea lion was watered at Kansas Cts
yesterday morning and shipped on to New
York

Mighty Nimrods in Africa.

From the Paris Dispatch to the London Daily Tele-
graph.
Lion hunting made easy" might be the
motto employed by NJ. Gather, a bold colonist
of Algeria. He has taken up the succession
of the late NJ Bombonnel who died few DAYS
ago in Dion, after having been for the greater
part of his existence a mighty Nimrod in the
North African jungles and deserts. II we are
to credit the testimony of those who know the
colony well it is an error to suppose that there
are no lions in Algeria. On the contrary, the
''monarchs of the desert abound in the forests
of Bona and in the gorges of Palestro. M.
Gather is running" his lion-hunting business
at Palestro, and is doing his best to work up a
connection, not only among gentleman who
may wish to accompany him in his expeditions,
but also among ladies' Here is a splendid cpen-
ing at once for the modern woman" who dares
do all that man does. NJ. Gather has inscribed
his business cards with a notice to the effect
that in his hunting rendezvous are to be found
lions of the Atlas Mountains, panthers, jackals
and other wild beasts, and that his establish
ment is provided with a special refuge or
shelter for the weaker sex. The property on
which NJ. Gather has organized his happy hunt
ing ground was bequeathed to hlm-so far as
the rights of chase are concerned by his friend
Bombonnel, at whose disposal it was placed by
the government in order to facilitate his ZOO
logical researches, rather, what may literall
be called pursuits"

THE QUEENS NAVEE.
A Good Deal of 1t Coming to See Us
Nowadays.

simultaneously with news of the dispatch
OF the British warship Warsprite to Behring
Sea comes a dispatch from Halifax announc-
ing the safe arrival Of the two torpedo boats
Nos. 81 and 62. These are the first torpedo
boats ever on this station and they are attract
ing much attention. They were commissioned
June 8, with a complement of sixteen officers
and men to each boat The start from Sheer
ness was made June z. The two boats sailed
from Plymouth with the troopship Tyne June
ID and made Queenstown, after a rough pas
sage, the next day, June IL. They encoun-
tered a rough gale coming over and No 81
broke her hawser Jun %.
Life on board the torpedo boats. according to
those who came over III them, is decidedly not
all beer and skittles. To begin with. the free
board of the boats is so low that any larger
than ripple is fairly certain to wash down fore
and aft. Cooking in bad weather was found
impossible At one period of the voyage boat
No. 62 made hive feet of water every two hours
Torpedo boats Nos 81 and 81, which
are in many respects similar to the United
States torpedo boat Gushing, were built
by Yarrow d Co. at Poplar. London, in 1856.
They are one hundred and twenty-five feet in
length and thirteen feet in breadth, and have
a trial displacement of sixty-two tons. They
draw forward one foot seven inches. aft six
feet three inches. They have a coal capacity
sOA4S
nineteen knots and about six hundred and fifty
Indicated horse power. Their armament con-
sists of five torpedo guns. two three-pounder
Hotchkiss quick-firing guns, two two-barreled
Nordenfeldt guns, and they carry an electric
search light. The Tyne brought out eighty
men for the West Riding regiment
The flagship Warsprite. which is expected to
arrive daily at Esquimalt b. c.. and be ready

spectively. So this new feet brings thirty-six
guns on the scene, in addition to the Amphion
and Champion already there.
Very stringent orders regarding the defenses
OF Halifax have been received from England
by the military authorities. They fol-
lows: First. No citizen will be admitted to any
forts under any circumstances. Second. No
naval officer will be admitted to any fort unless
he is on business and must then be accompanied

in plain clothes will not be admitted to the

CLOUDS OF BUTTERFLIES.
What Mountain Climber Encountered
Far Above the Snow Line.


In bulletin Just issued by the division Of
L. Hopkins writes:
During an ascent OF Mount Shasta, made in
August, 1889, Q most interesting occurrence
was noted in the fight Of countless myriads Of
butterflies vsnessa californica) at an altitude
Tar above snow line.
In our early morning climb OF August 20 OF
the above year We had LEFT our horses at 4:SO
at what is known as Horse Camp" at very
near snow line, where there were many small
snow fields close about us Our progress was
very slow and tedious. being all OF the time
over loose, sliding IT nentary rocks, or the
almost smooth. hard frozen surface of the icy
snow, and which latter did not soften till long
siter the sun had swung high enough TO shine
full upon il. Some little time after daylight,
put long before we could see the sun, as he was
hidden from us by the high crest of sharp
ridge on the southwest aspect of the noun
tam (our ascent being made from Sissons
west OF the mountain), few signs OF insect
lie were seen in the shape OF snow feas,"
Two or three lsrge-winged grasshoppers and,
occasionally at first. butterfly. The last two
were stiffened by the cold if they were there
from the day previous. The latter insect in
creased much in numbers as we assembled aud
were many Of them found in among and under
the loose stones well as a few upon them.
At perhaps $50 we came TO a point upon
which the sun had long been shining. and here
they were flying in the air. the flight being in
a southeasterly direction. From here they
seemed to increase very rapidly in numbers up
the remainder OF the ascent to well toward the
summit. The latter WAS reached at IL 20 a. m !;
the temperature was noted at AZ Iah. in the
open air. We remained here about half an
hour, then passed down by the way of the Hot
sulphur Springs and then out on the southerIy
face OF the mountain. We again encountered
our beautiful friends at not farther than six or
eight hundred feet below the extreme peak
and now in countless numbers. filling the air
with their flashing wings and all passing in the
same direction as observed during the ascent
toward the southeast. This strange 8 light con-
tinued until we seemed to pass below them at
an altitude Of between IL 900 and u 900 feet
The fact of its being q continuous fight Of
these insects across the mountain in one direc-
ton during the warm part of the day-a period
of nearly five hours-is beyond question That
1t was in progress one or more DAYS previous
to that upon which observed it is an easy de-
duction from the fact of the numbers of the
insects found among the rocks and stones while
yet stiffened by the cold of the night air. How
much longer it may have continued had 10
means of knowing.
Where they could have come from, in such
vast numbers, and what brought them TO such
a high altitude is of course matter of pure
speculation.

Steamers without Masts.

FROM tne New OK Herald
'The next evolution in the steamer way v
said a wise old man Of the sea, twill probably
be steamers without masts The sticks that
they now put into the twin-screw flyers now
are useless ornaments and might as well be
dispensed with, as they are in the way. If the
ship was to break down in both engines they
would not be of any use except to hang flag
of distress on, and you might just as well
carry a spar for that purpose in the holds Of
steamers and save the trouble"
'.But would not such steamer look bob
tailed, so to speak," asked
s'Oh. no. We would soon get used to it. II
is merely question Of what we accus-
toned to see. The fact is, these are not steam
ships, but merely steamboats,, and they might
as well travel as such. You do not find any
thing strange or bob-tailed about the propel-
Ter Monmouth. FOR instance, when you see her
clipping down to Sandy Hook. Why should
YOU cucumber boat with useless sticks Just
because she runs few thousand miles outside
of Sandy Hook? You will find that the masts
are going to 60, take my word for it"
