In A SEA OF FIRE.

Wonderful Phenomena Witnessed From
Bark in the East Indies.
Some unusual phenomena were observed
by Captain John Newman, commanding the
bark Kelvin, during his recent cruise through
Sunda Strait which separates Java from
Sumatra. The great channel is limited on
the north by the conspicuous island Kraka-
toa. on which is the volcano that kicked up
such rumpus while in state of eruption a
few years ago.
On June 26th last the Kelvin was quietly
going along with sails barely filled BY the
light southerly airs that caused hardly
ripple on the surface. About IL 80 in the
evening, when about eight miles east-north-
east from the entrance to Sunda Strait,
which is marked by Krakatoa. the water
suddenly appeared on fire in patches of
about two feet in diameter. These patches
were about eight or ten feet apart and ra-
dated in long lines from the vessel as far as
the eye could see. They extended in every
direction, the BARK herself being the central
point. The patches seemed to pulsate as
the bark slowly sailed along and their
brilliancy would change with each success
i've throb.
The last feature continued some ten or
fifteen minutes after the pulsati0ns had
ceased and gradually it died away.
The captain of the Kelvin awaits solu-
ton to the mystery and hopes to hear re-
ports from other vessels passing through
the straits about the same time.-N. Y.

SPARs BY THE THOUSAND.
Camden the Center OF the Greatest Spar
Industry in the World.

Camden the Center OF the Greatest Spar
Industry in the World.
Ship-builders are numerous throughout the
neighborhood of Camden, and many sub
sidiary enterprises have been fostered by
them. Some of the latter have attained
very large PROPORTIONS, notably the spar
interest. The business-in this line con-
Quoted by Mr.. David Baird, for in
stance. is probably of greater volume
than that of any of the ship-yards which he
serves. IL is certainly the largest business
of It's kind in the country, il not in the world.
Mr.. Baird has been all his life engaged in
the lumber trade. When boy he entered
the employ of MeSsrs. Gillingham II Gar
riSO u, who were extensive lumber-dealers in
Camden and Philadelphia. After a few
years he became the superintendent Of the
rafting and delivering department of the
firm. In 1863 Mr. Baird started the spar
business at Camden, n. J. For many years
he devoted his energies to developing the
trade in spars and now practically controls
the spar market. Naturally he has become
an expert and there is no better judge Of
spar timber anywhere.
Most of the spars come from Michigan
and the Pacific Coast. The spars are mostly
brought 10 New York and from there dis
tributed through the ship-building ports of
New England States and New York. Large
numbers are brought to Philadelphia and
Baltimore. At Camden, n. j., are his prin-
cipal headquarters, where is located large
spar-making plant, producing spars fin
ished of all kinds and sizes. At Camden a
large stock of the various kinds and sizes of
spars in the rough is constantly on hand.
He also OWES and operates large
sawmill at Natural Bridge, jefferson
County, n. Y. He is part owner of num-

schooner just launched, which has been

Point streets and his yard is at Cooper's

Outside of his business Mr. Baird has an
equally good record. He takes all active in
terest in all public affairs and is devoted
citizen. The residents of Camden have
shown their appreciationof him by electing
him Sheriff of the county, an office which he
fills worthily.-N. Y. World.

A yacht was becalmed in Long Island

the AWNINGS lounging about in costumes
more comfortable than elaborate, when the
Englshman appeared in white canvas,
wonderful and spotless He seemed himself
to have been starched for the occasion, and
the company exchanged glances as he came
forward with the splendidly upholstered
British matron on his arm.

The British matron glared at the girl
who was provokingy pretty and well dressed
in gown of Quaker gray batiste.

Daring.
The girl rose as he approached her. Her

a look at the British matron which sent
cold shivers down the respectable backbone
of that eminently proper individual.
Il can swim like fish," she said. "Come,
Mr.. Montgomery"
And before any one could divine what she
meant to do she seized the Englishman by
the arm and deliberately, though swiftly,
leaped overheard into the blue, calm water.
The EngliShman, taken completely by sur
prise, lost his balance and pitched awkwardly
into the sea after her. Miss Daring let 20

buoyek up by her garments, managed to
keep her head from going under water, so
that when the discounted gentleman came
spnttering to the surface she was ready to
greet him.

she said. ''Do call out to your mother that

whole scheme had been carefully planned
