Are Found Sailing Them.
Some stories were told in this column
recently Of a Maine ship captain who,
like his father and grandfather and
great grandfather before him, was a
fine American sailor of the old type,
who believed that the only ship that
could sail in any way that was worth
considering was a yankee bottom"
saws the New York Tribune. The old
captain, now dead, many time showed
this, TOO, when he drove his clipper
ship around the Horn, through gale
and hurricane, snow and sleet. 10 him
an American clipper was the noblest
work of man. When his ship was IN port
there was never stain on her quarter
deck, and the white paint Of the after
cabin cleaned in it's whiteness. The
ship was in Liverpool once, when
gross English agent from out the ware
houses came aboard. He was on the
quarterback, when the captain came
aft to greet the agent with old-fash-
toned American courtesy. But the
frank smile was burned out in a blaz-
ing glance, and the red of the wind
famed face became pale when the
American captain looked at his quar-
terdeck. The Liverpool agent was
chewing tobacco, and from his dirty
mouth had come the vlest stains to
mar the spotless deck. The Yankee
skipper went up close to the man and
gripped him by the arm. "Get off this
Ship he said in a voice that trenbled
with anger. ''Get off this ship, and if
ever you bring your foul mouth on her
again, I'll throw you overboardr'
This ship master and his vessel, as
has been said, hailed from Bath, Me.
Bath has long been famous for her
ships. Her clippers were for years the
admiration of envious seafaring for
eigners and the pride Of American ship
ping men. When clipper ships, flying
the stars and stripes, began to disap-
pear from the ocean, owing to the gen
eral use of steam, Bath turned her at
tention to schooners, and the sparless
vessels that came down the Kennebec
henceforth excited no less wonder than
had the rnarvelously swift full-rigged
ships Of other days. Then Bath ship
builders turned their hands to iron
steamers, and soon American men-of-
war will come down from Bath. 4

ships than he can hel q breathing, and q

Members Of the Theatrical Profession the

It is q well-known fact that theatrical
women take far better photographs
than those out Of the profession, and
the rather stupid question is often
asked why this should be. 81 am tired
Of explaining to ladies' said a photog-
rapher to a New York Sun reporter,
recently, ''thab as long as they do not
look like actresses out of a picture, they
should not expect to in one. You will
find that the very woman who would
disdain to have q theatrical appearance
on the street is set on having it in q
photograph. She wishes to look dashing,
assertive and passionate, and is never
satisfied when I make her her own
women as can an actress, for the req
son that they haven't the ability to fall
into the attitude I want. Then, again,
they are usually unable to throw the
particular expression into their faces
that they wish to have there, and this
an actress can do. Above all, lady
not of the profession seldom makes up
her face when she is photographed; or,
If she does, it is badly done. I always
touch up a woman's face bit with
crayon if she will allow me, but she.

the actress are toned down, her eyes

mouth clearly defined It's the same

BCsTOar REPUBILC: Probably most OF
our readers have allowed Major LIE
Caron 20 drop out of their recollection.
LIE Carou was British spy in America,
al organizer Of Clan-na. Gael camps, a.
solicitor OF funds and members, and
ostensibly a warm advocate OF Irish
liberty, He was, however, merely col
Letting evidence to involve the Irish
leaders in England and Ireland in the
dynamite plots into which other British
spies were dragging honest but nnis-
guided advocates of Irish freedom.
When lie Caron found that he could not
procure the evidence he sought, he
manufactured and forged it. Then he
went before the Parnell commission
and perjnred himself like a faithful
castle spy and sleuth hound. The mis-
cradle death Of Pigott exposed the en-
ormity of the conspiracy In which the
Times was engaged with others, and
LIE Caron's per6dy was laid bare with
that of the rest. Since that time the
creature has been living in seclusion
upon pension supplied by the govern
ment. The friends Of Ireland will be
glad to learn that the Nemesis that al
ways pursues the perjurer and assassin
of personal character has logged his
footsteps. He has led miserable life;
his constant fear Of violence SO wore
nnon his system that he fell victim to

from cancer. He is at a quiet, out Of

Growth OF tho Finger Nails.

The growth Of the nails is more rapid
In children than in adults, and slowest
in the aged It goes on more rapidly in
summer than IN winter, so that the
same nail that requires one hundred
and thirty-two days to renew itself in
winter would do the same work in one
hundred and sixteen days in the sum-
mer. The increase for the nails of the
right hand is more rapid than the left.
It also varies in the different fingers,
the variation being SO as to correspond
with the length Of the finger, Thus, it
is most rapiefin the middle finger, near
~ equal in the index and the ring finger,
slower in the little finger. but slowest
