1t is becoming more and more hard
for Faubourg St German mothers to
find rich husbands for their daughters.
As there is no court here, the connec-
ton which marriage with one of these
young ladies might open to nourel en-
richi would be of small value. She could
not endow her husband with title. and
her pretensions to be better than his
family would be uncomfortable. As her
forefathers and foremothers all married
for money, she has not the recommends
ton of beauty. The sons Of noble fami-
lies, as such, are not nearly so much
priced as they used to be by the mag
mates OF the French Jewry. Still, they
can pick up in all directions the daugh-
ters OF men who have made money in
business For instance, match is con-
templatod between the heiress of q
manufacturer Of corsets and a descend
ant Of Marshal do Grouchy, who was .
man Of ancient family. Her father is
glad to buy title for her, and she is de-
lighted at the prospect of hearing q
Stylish maitre d'hotel announce that
madame la Marquise est servie." A
Belgian Prince of non-royal house was
able some eight or nine years ago to get
hold OF 600. 900 by going to Hymen's
altar with the daughter of . man who
rose from being . street-sweeper to hav-
ing contract for sweeping the streets
of Paris. But his sisters, who were PEN
niless, had to marry poor widowers- :

The Sea SERPENT Again

There may not be any of The big sea Sc :
pents that seilc.a tell about. Capt. Gneen,
who commands the three maated schooner
Abby II Gheen, knows there are small ones
for be has caught and eaIen two Of them.
He brought il his vessel yesterday from
Georgetown with cargo of lumber and an
chored of Kaighn's Point. When he came
ashore be told his atorg.
Capt. Gheeo, to substantiste his state
ments, invites all who are skepticai to come
aboard of his Sesss! and examine the skins
and heads of the serpentf, which be has pre-
served. The greater portion OF their flesh
wss eaten by Capt. Gheen and his crsw, and
all sgree hat il was The sweetest meat they
| ever tasted.
81 was just ca Cape Hatteras Light, Jane

sters we're seen playing around the vessel"
Capt Gbeen go: eome very heavy cod lines,
bai.ed the hooks aud went a-fshing. No
sooner we're The nes over the yss'el's stern
than one of tbs peculiar Ash tegan to anaw
at the beit. Il IVES in less lime than 1t
would take to tell the tale that the fish was
caught and hauled on board The ship by the
combined Efforts Of the whole crew.
Jumped about from oae aide to the other. 1t
wss possessed of d wonderful amount Of
strength. Capt. Gheen chopped lis head
o6, and even then fer several minutes it
kicked up q great disturbance. After this
one was dressed Capt. Gheen tried !.i- .uck
again. The sea was quite smooth and
not . breath of cir was TO be hsd,
and the water wes cieer. Soon 9
huge monster took the bait and gave
1t Jerk that nearly pulled Cap.
Gheen over the tsffeail. Hs sang out for
help, and several of the crew came to help
nim naul in. The fsh fought like tarpor,
at times jumping cut of the water ard then
diving down underneath the veseei's bot
tom. For fully thirty minutes Capt. Gheen
and his crew struggled in hopes of over
powering this strange animal CT the Sea,
| but at lest the line parted and It escaped.
! Soon after he caught another fish like the
! first and ate IT,
| Capt Gheeu described the serpent with
which he had the terrible struggle as being
eight feet long and weighing about $50
pounds. It's body in parts closely resembled
| that CT rock fsh on much large scale,
| but 1t had an enormous head. The eyes
were like those Of q human being, and some
of the sailors believed they had booked the
head of q man until they we're convinced
such c5uld not be the case. Capt. Gheen
says the voyage just completed was re-
markab'e one for events. He harpooned
quantities Of large do'phiJs and brought
them on board.
Those who know Capt Cheer, place every
conf1ence in his story. and while many are
disbelevers in the existence If The sea ser.
