A LIVING COFFIN.
An Incident That Marred the First voyag

An Incident That Marred the First Voyage
of an Old Sailor Man.
Il made my first voyage in 1885,"
said the mate of the Argenta at st.
John, N b., one day last summer, as
the New York Sun reports the story.
II shipped in a brig bound from here to
glasgow with deals and rough spars l
was almost man grown and had
served year in a sail loft so that
could splice and cut and sew sails, but
shipped as ordinary seaman at ten
shillings month less than the other
seamen. The second night out it came
on to blow and we were rousted out to
take in sail. Before the wind was
passed l was in my bunk in the fore
castle-a house on deck, like the Ar
genta's-sitting there, and on the other
side was another man sitting there
looking at me very hard All at once
he points his finger at me and says:
"'You murdered me wifep
Il says: You're liar never saw
your wife, l was pretty fresh for
boy, you know; but he took me all
aback, unexpected like, just as when
the customs-house officer yesterday
asked me where Greenland was.
"Well, there he sat, staring at me
very sober, and pretty soon he points
his finger at me again and says, solemn
like: -rs-,
"'You murdered me wife,
"'You're a bloomin' liar,' says,
again. 4 never saw your wife,

going ashore to see man he calls b,
name that used to live near st. John il
those days, and turns to slowing his
clothes in bag, and we could see he
was in the deliriums. He worked in
terrible hurry, singing out to man he
said was outside in a dory waiting fol
him to hold fast minute and he'd
make haste, and just then comes the
mate and bawls for all hands to reef top
sails, as was saying to you.
THAT was my first night aloft, you
know, and l never thought no more
about his saying I'd murdered his wife
till l got back to my bunk, after turn
ing two reefs in the topsails. Then |
saw he was gone.
Next morning the second mate calls
to me when came on deck.
DO you want to see the coffin of the
man what said you murdered his wife?'
says he.
"'Yes, SIR says I.
"'Come aft here and look over the
rail, then, says he. So | went and
looked. and there was shark about as

the counter, waiting for another of rs"

Maine Politics

The Boston journal of Nov. &C. under
the caption given above, has an interesting
review of what is afoot and prospective in
Maine politics. A part Of this column ar
ticle is of local Importance and cannot fail
to interest the readers of the AMERICAN.
DR.. K. L. Grindle is mentioned as can
didate for the presidency of the Maine
Senate at the next session of the Legisla-
ture. We do not know whether or not
DR.. Grindle will be candidate for that
position, but we do know that as president
Of the Maine Senate he would be an ef-
fcient presiding officer and an honor to the
people of Maine.
The Journal says: DIR. r. L. Grindle Of
Mt. Desert, will be returned by Hancock
county Republicans. DIR. Grinde is a very
strong man. More than once during the
last session of the legislature did he cross
swords in debate with the gallant young
Mayor Of Gardiner, and, though less thor
oughly trained than his opponent. he is be-
lieved to have been one of the two men on
that floor whom Mr.. Spear dreaded to an
tagonize. These two gentlemen are likely
to be the only ones who will ask the Senate
of 1898 to allow them to preside over its
deliberations.
The Journals words relative to Senator
Hale are eminently true and the conclu-
sions drawn will be accepted by the peo-
Die of Maine as a matter Of course. We
quote as follows:
There are at least two gentlemen in the
State, not to mention the Democrats, who
look with something of longing upon the
seat of Senator Hale, whose successor is
to be chosen by the next Legislature. and
these two gentlemen will probably follow
the nominations for Senators and Repre-
sentatives with considerable attention.
They are both distingushed-to honor
whom their respective constituencies have
ever been delighted. They are ex-Speak-
er Reed and Congressman Boutelle. But
the people of Maine will be found unwill-
ing to dispense as yet with the services Of
the present senior Senator. They do not
forget how, way back in the COS, the
young Representative from Ellsworth
made his mark; or how, when the State
was threatened by the infamous Garcelon
conspiracy. it was the same man who came
to the front and led the people in triumph
out of the dangers into which unscrupu-
lous and designing politicians had brought
them; nor, coming down to later date. do
they forget the highly valuable services Of
