good deal about ships. The larger part
of a somewhat useless boyhood had
thus far been idled away on the old
docks of his native town. What more
natural, then, than that he should now
think of running away to seaP
When Bill got down to the wharf he
saw the ship Golden Fleece getting
ready TO sail Amid the confusion at
tending the hustle and hurry of depar-
ture it was not difficult for this hopeful
young runaway to slip aboard and con-
ceal himself between decks. But it
was a great risk he was taking, and he
began to realize it when he felt the
ship at last moving down the harbor.
More than once he was on the point of
coming on deck and begging the cap
tain to send him ashore with the pilot
But he was resolute little fellow, and
having once decided he no longer hest
tated. He knew what to expect If he
went home; sea life, he thought, could
not be worse. But Bill little knew,
by experience, the hardships of life on
q ship.
For the first few hours Bill satisfied
his hunger with few biscuits and
ginger cookies he had bought for two
or three pennies of the fat old woman
who kept stand at the head of the
wharf. But when the great ship began
TO pitch on the huge swell of the At
lantic Bill lost all his appetite for bis
cults or anything else. 1t was so warm
and stuffy also behind the barrels of
beef and pork and salt mackerel, to-
gether with the smell of tar and bilge-
water, that it seemed to him he never
before knew what it was to feel badly.
If only he could be put on shore again
he would have been willing to take a
beating every day for a month.
It was the second day out, and the
ship was heading to the southwark,
staggering under "a heavy breeze that
threatened to blow up a storm. The
mate came down the BOBBY hatch to
zee that everything was well slowed
and fast. Some curious sounds behind
the pork barrels arrested his attention.
On making search he discovered poor
Bill, suffering from most violent at
tack of seasickness.
$50 it's you, is it, that's making all
y
out of therer' growled the mate, in the
tone of a hungry bear.
Suiting the action to the word the
mate grabbed the young stowaway,
dragged him from his hiding place and
planted him on his feet Bill was too
weak to stand up steadily. Just then
the ship gave lurch; the boy frantic
ally clutched hold of the mate, who in
turn lost his balance, and the two
rolled down to leeward and brought up
in heap amid a coil of ropes
Furious with modification and rage
the mate picked himself up; and, Civ
ing Bill kick, roared; go on deck,
you lubber!'
Bill did not wait another bidding
but crawled up the hatchway white as
sheet and shaking all over The first
person he met there was Capt. Drew,

BLEW OUT HIS BRAINS.
Henry Garland Commits Suicide at the
st. Julian Hotel.

Yesterday morning, at lilo o'clock. a
man walked into the Office of the St. Jul
liam Hotel, and asked the clerk for a
room. He said he was very tired, not
having slept for two nights, and wished
a good, cool room in a quiet location, as
he intended to go to bed at once. The
clerk gave him room SO, just as he de-
sired, and the man registered as Henry
Garland, Detroit, Mich, and then went
to his apartment.
Only few moments after the man had
taken his room, the night clerk and his
wife, who occupy a room opposite the
one assigned to Mr.. Garland, and who
were sitting in their room talking, heard
the report of a pistol. The night clerk
at once opened the door and tried one of
the opposite rooms, but all was right
there. He then tried the door of the
next room, which was unfastened, and
which was Mr.. Garland's room, and
found that person lying on the floor dead
the blood flowing from a wound in the
head. At the same time the chamber
maid rushed to the office and said a man
had shot himself in No. SO.
It appears that Mr.. Garland, as soon as
he entered the room, must have turned
down the clothes of the bed as if to get
into bed, and then undressed himself,
taken a small revolver of the Sharpe
pattern and 80 calibre, placed the muz-
zle in his mouth, and pulled the trigger.
That one shot was all that was needed
for it passed through his brain, killing
him instantly. Coroner Gould and the
police were Immediately notified. There
were no marks ON the mans clothing to
tell who he was, and no notes nor scraps
of paper. All his possessions consisted
of gold watch, $6.82 in money, a comb,
two pocket knives and piece of tobac-
co.
Mr.. Garland was about five feet two
inches in height, bald on top of his head
and hair on the sides, of sort of red
goatee. His clothes were dark in color.
He appeared to be workman. He had
no baggage of any sort with him.
Coroner Gould and DR.. Palmer exam
ined the body. The ball entered the
nose, glazed the roof of the mouth and
lodged in the brain. The pistol may
have been discharged by accident, while
the man was looking into it. Under
taker Martin has the body.

Trunk. Another brother was for years
a captain for j. S. Winslow & Co., and

THE mAcKEREL.
Portland's Cape shore Fleet Nearly All In

Since the Ellen Lincoln got in Friday
with her first catch of Provincial mack
erel, which packed out 149 barrels, there
have been several other arrivals, which
have packed out as follows: Henrietta
Frances, It's barrels; the Lila B. Fer
maid, Is barrels; the Henry Morganthen,
about 1875 barrels; the Miantonomah,
about IS barrels; the Emma, about Is
barrels. These have been sold at prices
ranging as follows: Medium 3's, from
$7.75 barrel to $3.50; large 3's, $12.25
to $3.50. This price is a dollar a barrel
higher than for first trips last year.
The early catch on the Cape shore is at
an end, and from estimates so far made
up it seems to be about 1000 barrels short
of last year.
The Ellen Lincoln has now started for
mackerel off our own coast. The Lucy
Warner is already out, and the feet now
in will go out as soon as they are ready.
The Robert Pettes, F. Fl. Smith and
Lizzie Maud are expected from the Cape
shore today. 1t is reported that the Liz
zie Maud has aboard 200 barrels, the
Smith $50 and the Pettis 100.

finally found it intact, with the excep-
ton of portion of the carriage furni-
ture, at Ossipee, N. H., where the
thieves, said to have been three fellows
from Nova Scotia, snapped it for one
belonging to the man in whose posses
sion it was found. Now that man is
very anxious to recover his team.

Park improvements.

The Park Commissioners intend erect
ing an iron bridge over the pond in the
Oaks where the water makes up in a
little retreat next to Portland street.
The iron work of the bridge will cost
