The Archer Bond Case

The argument before the jury in the
second Archer bond case will begin at
Towson today. The only preliminary
proceeding will be the announcement of
courts decision on the prayers. The
evidence was soon completed Yesterday,
the argument on the prayers consum-
ing the remainder of the session The
court would not allow the defendants to
offer evidence to show that Archer had
forged the name of Mr.. Murray Vandiver
in the affidavit on the bond. The sure
ties wished to testify that after seven of
them had made affidavit that they were
worth in the aggregate 1856, 900, Archer
inserted Mr.. Vandiver's name in the affi-
davit and altered the figures to $205, 900
but such evidence was declared inadmis-
sible The defendants claimed that the
alterations and erasures in the affidavit
were sufficient notice to the Governor
that something was wrong with the bond
and should have caused him TO make in
quiry.

Disabled Yacht pastime.

The steam yacht Pastime, from Har-
lem, N. Y, bound to Wilmington, N. c.,
and consigned to III. G. Latimer for whom
she was built, stopped in here yesterday
evening in a disabled condition. The
rudder had been carried away during a
southwest wind Sunday in Chesapeake
bay. The vessel afterwards became I'M
manageable, and was driven ashore at
Greenberry's Point. She was finally got
ten off and taken to the Eastport rail-
way where repairs were made After
coaling up at BasiPs wharf, she started
on her voyage this morning. The little
steamer encountered rough weather and
several mishaps since she started, week
age, which has delayed the passage. The
yacht is credited with a speed of seven
teen knots an hour. Capt J. II Marshall
of Norfolk, is in command, and there are
FIVE in the crew. Capt. Marshall says
with such small craft he must necessa-
rily proceed with great caution, and that
he is unable to state when the steamer
viii reach her destination. He consid-
ers that he and his crew have assumed
great risks by undertaking the trip. The
little steamer is no larger than small
steam launch.

Others told amazing tales of other prodigious

He said he could produce chap who could out

Hans went away. In a few minutes he came

Quickly the bucket of beer was drawn and it
was all solid fluid too Hans seated himself at
table and began to drink. Slowly the foamy
liquid trickled Gown the Germans throat until
be had drank the last drop. Then he put the
bucket on the table with bang. wiped beads of
perspiration from his brow, and lit his pipe with
an air of self satisfaction.

Big Sealskin Fonanza.

Japan is putting a fin into the sealing bust
ness, and will have two fins in next year. Ru-
mors Of Yokohama's attaining some position as
a sealskin market have reached hero at cd
times, says the San Francisco Examine, but
never with the excitement creating force of yes
terday.
One of the passengers to arrive by the steam
er China was George A Smitl, a veteran
whaler, who has been cruising in northern
waters every year from the time he was able to
go to sea. He was not with the whaii fleet
this year, AM when he mingled with his old
companions after getting ashore. lie told them
tales Of his cruise in the Okhotsk sea that were
more marvellous to sealers and whaers than
any yarns Aladdin ever concocted about his
lamp.
Sealskins formed the basis Of his narrative
and he reported the catcn at Is, 900 skins 1t
sounded like fish story, but Smith had certain
evidences with him in the shape OF certii ID
cheeks and authorizations 10 ship an expert
enced crew, that back up the story.
Briefly told, Smiths story is that when he left
here last winter for Yokohama it was to take
command Of the bark Nathan s. Perkins, we'll
known in t1ese waters.
His employers were Yokohama capitalists
who had prospected the Siberian coast and
evolved a scneme for loading their vessels with
sealskins
They wanted man to take command who
was fami lar with Russian waters and knew
how to ingratiate himself with the natives, and
Smith was selected.
Seals were plentiful amonS the upper Japan
SJdSG Wnen ue started OUT, ana IN hunting Inc
Perkins did very well. But the big xii ing came
when Smith reached Robin island, or Robin
bank, geographically speaking, Just inside the
Ok hotSk sea. few miles from Saghalen isl
and 700 miles from Petropaulovsk Smith
baited for seals with rum, 1t is supposed.
The Perkins was disguised as whaler, and
ostensihly put in a. the little settlement near
the rookere5 for water.
The Russian officer in charge OF the place was
invited to take drink. and another drink, until
he had quite programme of drinks. Tae
islanders were also lavlshly nte-tained with the
Perkins rum, and in a day or two the entre
population mot a very extensive o ie) was too
happy to care what became of the seals
This was kept up for several days, and in the
meant ne every knife on the Perkins was kept
busy SHINING seals. Hundreds were taken, and
when the Perkins finally sailed it was with the
biggest returns for few cases of rum that were
ever made.
The same game was played at another rock
cry, and when the old bark finally dropped
ancaor at Yokohama she had 10, 600 skins in her
hold, according to Smiths count, and the skins
averaged between Sill and $12 apiece.
