ind 1t necessary to change the object OF
his affections. To do so was not in Cd
position to true morality, but in ODE
dience to it; but society, consulting sole
| ly its own selfish convenience, had arti-
ficially and arbitrarily made such acts
criminal, and had thereby bewildered
and mortally injured myriads of limo
cent human beings.
To this the prima donna replied that
love could grow illimitably without dan
ger of ever outgrowing its object. The
need was not of more to love, but to love
more. God, who was love itself, loved
the meancst of his creatures, and what
God loved that, surely, is not unworthy
the affection of the most richly endowed
of mankind. AS Jocelyn did not imme.
diately confute this argument the prima
donna arose and gently intimatcd that
it was necessary for her to be alone in
order TO prepare for the evenings per-
Torrance.
Jocelyn ought to have known tho fulfil
ity of argument with woman about a
subject in which tho emotions are MAIN
ly involved. Even if he had demon
strated his proposition and obtained her
assent to it, he would not have been
bit nearer his goal. a woman overpow-
cred by passion will act in direct oppo-
sition to the most elementary dictates of
reason; and the same woman will not
swerve hairs breadth from the path of
rectitude if the most unanswerable logi-
cal demonstration do not tally with her
emotional prepossession. The fatal flaw
in Jocelyn's sylogism was Jocelyn him
self Man may sometimes be led by the
intellect, but woman only by the heart
and by curiosity.
After the above discussion it became |
vaguely apparent to Jocelyn that the
prima donna was drifting away from
him. She parried his attempts at famil
lar intercourse gently but effectively.
He had in fact done her service against
his own interests. He had assisted her
to formulate her instructive recoil from
the view which he sought to inculcate.
1t was incumbent upon him, therefore, to
take some practical step. The close of
the season was at hand.
While he was racliing his brains as to
what he should do, accident came oppor-
timely TO his aid. AS he was walking

AMID ETERNAL ICE,
How the Crew of the whaIer
Grampus Spent the Winter.

-" HOW did you spend the winter In the Arctic?'
asked reporter OF one ofthe crew OF the Gram
puS, the steam whaer that returned yesterday
from. a nineteen months cruise after whales.
=" Well, we had fairly good time" replied the
bluDber-huHter, and, what with keeping the
ship liz order and visiting the other vessels, the
time. passed pleasantly enough Sometimes We
got up games on the ice. but we were so hindered
with clothes In order TO keen frc IL freezing that
We soon got tired and gave up snow balling and
sliding. Mendlng clothes, reading and spinning
yarns was the general method of passing time
between meals; ana then you know a man can
sleep In those latltudes better than he can down
here, and more than half the time we spent In
our bunks." g.. -
: The Grampus. with the Mary u. Hume and
Nicotine, wlntered at The Mackenzie River, and
when the ice opened. up in the spring the
Grampus headed to the entrance OF Herscheli
Island. where she got her fl st whale on July
21 ST. and the mex month capturrd the other
twenty. 1t is expected that the Mary ID. Hume
VIII make big catch next spring as whales are
thick and easily approached. The Grampus
went much farther 10 the eastward than whalers
generally go. and was as far north as 73o. While
lii winter quarters two OF the crew ran away,
but a party was sent after them, and the mrn
were soon brought back. Both were badly
frozen, and lost several fingers and toes as the
result OF their attempt TO leave the vessel.
The entire crew are indignant over the report
that they had be- n IuaSsacred by natives. They
state that the natives OF the Mackenzie River are
the most inofensive people In the world, and one
man with shotgun could scare the entire tribe.
lhe men hint dsrllly at ill-tfeatment received at
the hands OF their officers, but declined 10 state
their grievance until after they have been paid
OH. when, they say, some OF the officers will
lave TO face them In lawsuit. During the
cruise TWO OF the men died. Second Mate Dray-
den. aged 33, native OF BarDadoes, died Of
aaosy and was .96,. hH.isd at esa. and Third Mate
tender Jennie, but died on the trip.

aneSe Earthquake.
Several Towns Entirely DemOllshed-0VeT
$4,000 Houses Destroyed on the
Island OF HOndO.
Special to THE MORNING CALL

g LONDON, Oct. 31.-A private dispatch re-

Nagoya. Five thousand houses were de-
stroyed and that number Of people were
killed at Gifu. The towns of Kano and
Kaaamatsa are also reported to have been
destroyed, together with fifty miles Of rail-
road. The estimate Of the total loss tolife
may be over 10000. There have been many
wrecks about the island of Hondo as con-
sequence Of the disturbance.
BosToN, Oct. 3L-The Secretary of the
American Board of Foreign Missions has

STILL AT LARGE.
The Released Tennessee COnYiCtS Wander
Ing About the Surrounding Ce-ltry.

NASHVILLE, Oct 31.-The Governor re-
ceived dispatches from the State authorities
stationed at Bricevlle and Knoxville this
morning confirming the dispatches last night
about the release Of the convictS by the
miners. The latest accounts state that l63
of the released men are at Briceville and
143 at Coal Creek.
Nothing Of particular interest has tram
spired since morning, the day being occu-
pied by consultations between the Governor
and other State officials. Atpusement was
caused during the afternoon by the receipt
of a telegram from Richard Hunter, cOlored
convict, dated Clinton. saying: ME and
160 Of us who was working mt Briceviile
was turned loose last night by miners. They
burned uD everything. We are loose at
Clinton together. What shall do?"
Governor Buchanan is determined to bring
the law-breakers to justice, but plan of
action has not yet been decided upon. The
Legislature of the last special session pro-
vlded severe punishment for interfering
with the convicts. The affair is the talk OF
the State, and from all sections comes de-
mand that the miners who participated in
the affair shall be brought to justice.
A special to the American from Knoxville
to- night says reporter Just returned from
Briceville and Coal Creek reports every
thing quiet tonight. The Briceville stock
ade. including ten eight-roon houses ard
large dinng-hali, was burned At Coal
Greek the office building and guards quar-
ters were burned and the furniture of other
buildings demolished.
The miners began to gather last night
about 9 o'clock very rapidly. At $3.50
O'clock 200 men called upon Warden Cross
to deliver TO them the keys Of the prison.
which he did. By this time the stockades
were surrounded by $500 men. who kept up
a continual firing from rifles to iutinidate
the t0wnspe0ple and the guards. The lib
Grated convictS aided the men in burning
aud destroying the properly. and also
looted the store Of Warden Chumley at
Coal Creek. The magazine at the Brice-
vile stockade was blown up, and this, to-
gether with the explosion OF several dyna-
mte bombs, created an impression in town
that a terrible fight was in progress. As a
matter of fact, however, no one was Ia
jured.
The convicts, in gargs of tens and twelves,
were to-day wandering all over the sur
rounding country. and whenever they askei
for help it was freely given by the natives.
A special from Oliver Springs tonight
says the people expect the miners to release
220 convicts at that place.

ARMY MATTERS.
Testing Armor Plates and SmokeleSs Pow
dtr-EatiOnal Guard Inspection.

WASHINGTON, Oct 31.-The armor tests at
Indian Head commenced to-day. Commo-
dOre Folger said tonight: The nickel
steel plate of the Bethlehem Iron Company
furnished leas penetration than the nickel
steel plate of last year, which won the vic
tory at every round. The board will have
to waive the disadvantage of a crack in the
nickel steel plate this year, which did not
exist last year. The Harveyized plate was
the NEST severe upon the projectiles. The
performance of the low carbon Carnegie
nickel steel plate was surprise to every
body. as it was not imagined that it would
furnish as great lnvulnerability as proved
to be the case. On the whole the results of
to-day's tests are considered satisfactory as
to the ability of producing American steel
armor, the object of armor being TO keep
out proisctiles. There still remains the
plate which has been the favorite from the
of which two plates, one from Carnegie,
and the other from Bethlehem, will be
tested hereafter. The results with the
Harvey plate without nickel, tested to-day.
are considered normal, it being expected
that the absence of nickel would show a
cracking effect. 1t is anticipated that the
toughness of the nickel steel. combined
with the Harvey process, will produce ad-
vantageous results. The tests to-day were
much superior and more severe than those
abroad.
