Well knowing that the holiness Of this

Well knowing that the boldness Of this
last adventure with o cruiser OF the
royal navy would draw down certain
destruction upon them, the captain and
crew OF tho lugger ran her into French
port, where sho was sold and the pro-
ceeds equally divided among tho crew
and officers, who were thenceforth dis
banded.
Let us follow for moment, gentle
reader, the life of this captain Of the
Dolphin, this smuggler Of tho Isle of
Man.
Still actuated by q love of adventure
and fondness for the sea, he proceeded
to London, where lie was soon int'usted
with largo merchant vessel in the West
India trade, as captain, in which capacity
he led a lucrative and adventurous life
for several years, subsequent to which ho
visited and settled in America. On the
breaking out of the war with the mother
country, his ardent love for the principle
for which our fathers contended led him
to offer his services in behalf of liberty.
He was appointed captain of noble
vessel, the first Of the American navy,
and his was the hand that raised first
her flag upon the blue water. With this
vessel and others with which he was
subsequently intrusted, he gained some
of the most brilliant naval victories oTer
won. Through his whole service there
was one faithful follower, who never left
him, and whose protecting arm twice
saved his life in the memorable battle
between the Bon Homme Richard and
the Scraps, the former Of which he COM
manded. Reader, that follower was the
pardoned criminal of the Dolphin lugger!
Would you follow this commander
etill further' Congress passed a public
vote Of thanks to him for his gallant SER
vices, endowing him with the highest
rank in the American navy, which to
this day is embalmed in the grateful
hearts of free people.-Boston Globe.

Imperfect rootcear.

'.Mothers arc making mistake in
permitting their children to wear heel
less Shoes" said q shoeman to reporter
of The Free Press. "The fat soled shoe
causes the child's feet to run to length.
I'll our girls have abnormally long, slim
feet, aud that is the reason"
"But tho spring heel shoe prevents
the growth of corns aud keeps the foot
perfect, does it not?"
Nothing Of the kind. That is all a
mistake. The instep or arch of the foot
falls flat when it has no support and be-
comes weak, and often useless. A low
heel would support and strengthen it.
In growing children who wear the spring
heel shoe turn their feet over on the side
and learn to walk badly"
"What is the popular sloe?'
"It is a narrow toe with q broad, low
heel, either to button or lace in front.
And the ladies are all wearing loose
shoes now, extra long. The small foot
has gono out Of fashion. All our ladies
who used to wear 2s and 8s orc now
wearing 4s and 5s. s."-Dotroit Free Press.

SONGS UNSuNG.


Sweet the song Of tho thrush ae dawring, ;,
When the grass Hes wet with spangled dew,
tsWeet the sound Of the brooks low whisper
Hid reeds and rushes wandering through;
Clear and pure Is the west winds murmur
That croons In tho branches all day long;
But the songs unsung are the sweetest music
And the dreams that die are the soul OF song
The faIrest hope Is the one which faded,
The brightest leaf Is the leaf that fell;
The song that leaped from the lips Of sirens
Dies away In an old sea shell
Far TO the heights Of viewless fancy
The souls swift fight Ike swallow goes,
For the note unheard is the birds best carol
And the bud uublown Is the reddest rose.
Deepest thoughts are the ones unspoken,
That only the heart sensa listening, hears;
Host great joys bring touch Of silence.
Greatest grief IS In unshed tears
What ne hear Is the deetest echo,
A song dies out, but dream lives on;
Tho rose red tints of tho rarest morning
Are lingering yet In q distant dawn
Somewhere, dim IN the days to follow,
And tar away In the life to be,
Passing sweet Is q song OF gladness,
The spirit chant Of the soul set free
Chords untouched are the ones we walt for
That never rise from the harp unstrung;
We turn our steps to the years beyond us,
And listen still for the songs unsung.

A ponsionn,1 Picture

There lives in Portland a lady, so years
of age, who has picture that has proven
of great pecuniary valuo to her. 1t is
painting by one Of tho old masters.
About ten years ago one of the Wander
bilts heard that she had such picture
and sent an expert to examine it. After
q careful examination no decided that
the painting was genuine, but it was ono
of the carly examples of the artist and
therefore not of especial merit. 10
wrote to Mr.. Vanderbilt that tho lady
was in very straitened circumstances,
and he thought the sum of $500 could
safely bo advanced for the picture
which tho lady was willing to sell. Mr..
Vanderbilt returned answer, offering the
lady $500 a year during crlifctime, and
also providing chat tho picture, forwhich
she had q great attachment, should re-
main her property for tho rest of rifle,
to become his at her death. Tho propo-l
sition ws=- accepted, and every year sin&
the old lady has rccei:cd her $500 pEn-
sion. Lewiston Journal.

sLAsHIss WITH KNIVES.
Colored Men Eight Until Exhausted at
the Westchester Race Track.


New York, Feb. 8. A duel with
knives was fought at o'clock on Sun
day evening at Morris Park by John
Noel, a colored man in the employ of
Charles Reed, and John Walker, a
half-brother of William Walker, the
jockey who rode Ten Broeck in all his
record breaking performances. The
men quarreled in front of Mr.. Reed s
kitchen, and in twinkling both had
whipped knives from their p)ckets and
were slashipg right and left
Although the knives were of the reg
ulation pattern, so desperate was the
fighting that in minute both had
broken the blades of the weapons.
Even then they did not desist, but con-
tinued stabbing and thrusting with the
stumps, until, exhausted by the loss of
blood, both fell to the ground.
Walkers throat was slashed horribly,
and it was feared at first that he would
not live. He refused TO take chloro-
form and pluckily told the surgeon to
sew up his neck, that he was not going
todie yet The surgeon extracted a
piece Of the blade of the knife over an
inch and a.half in length from the top of
Noel's head. Each was badly cut about
the shoulders, arms and hands.
Noel is a rubber in Charles Reed g
Tennessee stable, and is said to be bad
man when in temper. All the train
ers and helpers at Westchester hope
that it will be long time before such
another affray takes place at that popu-
| lar course.

Court.


When the Criminal Court convened

The case of the shoplifters, Kate FRI
day and Sarah Lewess, was taken up
and proceeded with. The affecting
hugging and kissing scene which was
gone through yesterday was dispensed
with. greatly TO the disappointment of
the large number of curious people who
had gathered in the courtroom in an
ticipation of sensation.
Lilly Friday, the 13-year.od daugh-
ter OF Kate Friday, occupied seat in
close proximity to her mother, and
there was more or less hand squeezing
and other evidences of affection. The
young girl, overcome by the oppressive
air In the court. room, made close ef-
fort at fainting, and a palm. leaf fan
and glass Of water had to be called
into service.
Considerable time was taken up in
procuring panel for the trial of the
case. Beyond the peremptory chal-
lenges exercised yesterday Mr.. Camp
bell Carrington, attorney for the de-
fense, stated that they would claim ten
peremptory challenges ON each count,
or thiriyin all, and under this rule the
Government would be entitled to three
on each count, or, nine in all. Prece-
| dents established in the Criminal Court,
| however, have given the defense ten
| challenges and the Government three.
Many Jurors summoned were promi-
nent business men on Pennsylvania
| avenue, and some were challenged for
they admitted having formed opinions
and manifested indications Of sympathy
| for their fellow tradesmen.
When Mr.. Darlington had exhausted
eight peremptory challenges he asked
| the Court to rule as to whether he
would be entitled to the challenges foI
| each felony or count in the indictment
under which his clients were being
| tried. District Attorney Lipscomf
| maintained that but ten peremptory
| challenges in all should be granted, and
cited rulings in support Of his position.
Judge Bingham concurred in the
opinion held by Mr.. Lipscomb, and
Virtually ruled that the defence would
be entitled to only ten peremptory
challenges, and the defence three.
When these privileges had been ex
hausted by the defence and only one
exercised by the prosecution, the follow.
ing jury was sworn for the trial Of the
case; James 0. Marcerow w. f. Pre-
we'll, Maurice B. Flynn, John f. Green
