MIRAGE CAUSES A SHIPWRECK.

The. Island Of st. Croix Seemed Twenty
Miles Away to the steadfast's Skipper.
A mirage in the caribbean sea was the cause
OF the total loss Of the new American barken-
tine Steadfast. while bound from Port of Spain
to Philadelphia with cargo of street-paving
asphalt. She was wrecked several weeks ago.
but the crew only recently reached Phiadel-
phia on their way home from the Island of st.
Croix, the scene of. the disaster The captain
had never before made voyage, and cost her
owners nearly $4,000.
When the Steadfast sighted the lofty peaks
OF st. Croix the atmosphere assumed a peculiar
hight color, and II became impossible to detect
the sky from the island, everything assuming
a similar shade and color resembling the GIRO
stratus clouds, hiding the entire lower portion
of the island.
The peaks and mountain tops appeared to be
twenty miles away. The tops of the noun tains
seemed to be inverted, the tail cocoanuts ap-
pearing to grow from sky to the earth. The
ugar-grinding' mills were pouring their smoke
downward, and the workmen working upside
down. The Steadfast was kept under easy sail
and perfect control.
Everything went well until grinding sound
was heard. and a sudden tremor went through
the ship. The vessel crashed over the reefs and
was soon fast on the rocky shore. where her
wreck still remains. The mirage made the
island appear twenty miles away.

Revealing the Names of an Anti Catholic
Society at Council Bluff.
A special dispatch from Council Bluffs, Iowa,
dated the Goth, says:
There were sensational and exciting scenes
at the Broadway Thea.er in this city yesterday
afternoon, which were brought about BY meet
ing held under the direction of the leading
members Of the Catholic church Of this city
for the purpose of making public the names
Of the members Of the American Protection
Association, the members of which organiza-
ton are by the Catholics called white CABS"
During the past week Father ChiniGui, who
was formerly Catholic priest but which re-
ligion he renowned about thirty-three years
ago. gave a series Of lectures against Catholi-
cism. and vigorously denounced the church
anu its doctrines in general and the priesthood
in particular. He was greeted with crowded
houses nightly.
These lectures were given under the auspices
OF the alleged white cap organization and il is
claimed that one night while the secretary.
William u. kinsell, was in attendance xt
one OF the secret meetings his house
WIS robbed and copy OF the list of
members and the oath of membership
and declarations of principles stolen Whether
the story OF the alleged burglary is true OF not
the list of members and other papers were OBJ
tanned and made public in an open meeting
held yesterday afternoon.
When il was announced that this would be
done here was considerable of q sensation and
as a consequence the Broadway Theater was
crowded. Those who were members of the So
called white cap organization evidently came
prepared to raise distur bance ana when the
secretary attempted to read the oath of mem
bership and the declaration of principles they
attempted to hiss him down. Those having the
meeting IN charge finally succeeded in making
public all they intended
When the list OF names was read over three
hundred in all. it caused quite a sensation
Among the members were found a number OF
city officials, member Of the board of educa-
ton and many prominent business and profess
sIonal men.

Renorse Made Him Surrender.

Charles Green, whose appearance bears him
out i'll his assertion that he is sailor, has sur
rendered himself to the police in England and
confesses to having murdered his sweetheart, a
young women named Minnie Gilmour. Who as
Green says, lived at % Christian street, Phila-
delphia, Pa. Green asserts that OH returning
to Philadelphia after a voyage in March last he
discovered that during his absence his sweet
heart had accepted the attentions Of an English
man. Meeting the girl at the race course he
first upbraided her fiercely for her dsloy and
then presenting revolver at her sh0t.her ~
death. Green then fed to Queenstown. From
that place he slowly journeyed eastward, but as
the days passed the self-confessed murderer
suffered the bitterest pangs OF conscience, while
his nights were haunted by the memory Of his
crime. His life became utterly unbearable,
and he finally determined to surrender himself
up to outraged law. The prisoner says that his
parents lived in South Frankfort street, Phila-
delphis, At the moment OF giving himself into
custody Green was perfectly sober and spoke
and acted nationally. The Philadslphis Police
deny his story.
