The Terrible Experience OF CaptaiI

The Terrible Experience OF Captain
Morse and His Crew.
[From the Lewiston Evening Journal
No seaman ever knew "A more terrible and
unique experience than that which fell to
the lot of Captain James Morse of Phips-
burg, an experience that thrilled the sea-
going world at that time. Captain Morse
had been overtaken by terrible gale, and
while 'iying TO" one of the tremendous
waves which plunged along mast high
''tripped" the vessel and she was instantly
turned bottom up. Captain Morse and q
companion were in the cabin at the time,
and as the deck was several feet below the
surface of the sea they were imprisoned
there. They were in absolute darkness,
standing in water up to their waists, SEEM
ingly helpless and doomed.
But Captain Morse and his companion
were not the kind of men to surrender to
| the seemingly inevitable until forced to do
60. Cropping about they found a hstchet
and decided to hew their way to the upper
; air. Knowing that as sooh as an opening
was made the air, which was then shut in
! by the arch If the inverted hull would es-
! cape, and the water take its place, they
were obliged work with the greatest eau
ton lest they make fatal leak before there
was a hole large enogh to permit Of their
escape and SO be drowned like rats impris-
oned there For days they worked, cut
| ting away the ceiling and planks until they
could catch the glesm of light through the
thin wood in one place, then cutting again
until another part was similarly cleared
and 80 on until the light, passing through
the thin wood in one place, then cutting
again until another part was similarly
clerred and so on until the light through
the slight surface, marked the lines of q
square large enough to admit the free pas
cage of a mans body. Then, when every
possible preparation had been made and
there seemed to be nothing more that they
could do to insure the success of the anal

move they knocked ont the obstruciing
square and crawled into the daylight as the
pster, freed from the opposition of the
compressed air, followed them, and the
vessel sank lower into the water until the
natural buoyancy of the timber checked
her.
fhsre they were, perched on the curved
surface of cspsized wreck, drifting at the
mercy of the seas But they had no idea
of surrender. Having escaptd 4 to the light
they at once set to work ts build ND q sort
of signal station TO attract the attention of
any vessel that might chance to come that
way, and upon the top they fixed staff
from which futtered signal shirt.

ing that way sighted the signal of distress,
bore down upon and rescued the men. who
were almost exhausted by their days Of suf-
fering there, their torn hands showing how
they had lsbOred there in the terrible dark
ness, but they soon recovered, and no one
talking with the captain to-day would ever
suspect that he had once dug his way out
of the sepulchre of the sea.

ELECTION AND BUSINESS.

ELECTION AND BUSINESS.
Already reports of changes in business
plans on account of the result of the
election begin to come in. There will be
many and important changes. Had the
Republican party been allowed to continue
in power business men could have gone
right along. Now they must look about
and see where they stand. And while
they are trying to discern the situation
they must be careful. They will hesitate
about undertaking new enterprises or ex-
tending old ones. The big financiers will
make themselves safe, and in doing SO they
will not encourage business activity and
prosperity. 1t will be long time, even if
an extra session of congress is called, be-
fore we can know what the Democrats
intend to do about the tariff, State banks,
silver, and other important matters di-
reetly and powerfully affecting business.
During that period of waiting people will
be averse to ''branching out" and will be
as prudent as they know how to be. This
will result in throwing many out of work
and make good deal of disturbance in
other ways. Some, who would of course
be called calamity howlers"by the hopeful
and contented Democrats, think that the in
evitable changes cannot be accomplished
without financial and industrial collapse.
If their idea should turn out to be correct
the Republican party might suddenly be-
come as popular as 1t is now unpopular.
But it is to be hoped that the country will
not have to pass through such punishment
as previous mistakes in dealing with the
tariff have brought on it.

MAKING NIAGARA WORK.

For many years engineers and others
| who have looked upon the tremendous
water power of the Niagara river going to
waste have dreamed that some way might
be found to utilize it. The dream has
now become q reality, and the river will
| soon be working. The scheme is mag
ni6eent one, and includes q canal and a
The tunnel is seven thousand feet long.
For the most part it is about 100 feet
below the surface and about 400 feet from
the river. 1t is intended to carry off the
water after it has done its work. Over the
tunnel will be the canal, supplied from the
upper level of the river. From the canal
water will flow through we'll holes into the
tunnel, and the we'll holes will be turbine
water wheels. 1t is calculated that the
power available will be equal to the COM
bined force at the falls at Lawrence, Hol-
yoke, Lowell, Turner's Falls, Manchester,
Bellows Falls. Lewiston, Cohoes, Oswego,
Paterson, New Jersey, Augusta, Georgia,
Minneapolis, Rochester and Lockport.
1t is expected that the power will be
converted into electrical agency. Buffalo
awaits sthe completion of the work in the
expectation of running its factories, etc.,
by electric power developed at Niagara.
Rochester, seventy-two miles distant, may
also be able to utilize this power, and it
is not beyond hope that it may be trans
mitted as far as New York
The tunnel will be finished about New
Years. 1t has employed force of 1 300
men night and day since October 4, 1890.
Every day during that time a thousand
pounds of dynamite have rent the rock
and opened the way for the workmen and
builders. Bricks were used by the mil
lion more than hundred thousand went
in for each week in the work of construc-
ton. 1t has cost great deal of money,
but it will make great deal of money.
And it will illustrate anew the gorgeous
imagination and the mastery skill of the
modern wonder workers.

SOUP.

of a woman who gets good living out of

not friend who found it very difficult to
get good soup stock for her dinners, and
who believed that in other households
there was similar need, suggested to her
that she should supply dozen families
daily with stock at twenty cents per
quart. A rich, nutritious stock was
made from beef, veal, bones and chicken
and delivered to each customer. The first
days profits were eighty cents, soup and a
fowl for the family dinner. In six months
the number of customers had increased to
one hundred. The next year ''the stock
house" was changed to a souphouse,
twenty-five cents being charged for a
quart, which, by the way, was rich enough
to be diluted with one pint of
water and still remain a very good
soup. AS the business increased it beca me
necessary to have cart to deliver
the quantity ordered, and villages near the
city were served twice q week. Soup
depots were established in some of the
most populous. A little printed card sent
to the customers announced different
soup for each day of the week: On Sun
days there was consomme; Mondays

A mothers love endures. The other day
in Cincinnati young man named Sam
Holloway, only rs years old, struck his
wife and was sent to the workhouse. But
his mother-10S years old-begged the
police board to let her boy off, and the
board did 1t. When young Sam gets older
he will be very much ashamed of this cpl

No wonder some of our lawyers find
time to devote to office-seeking. The
United States contains 70, 900 lawyers, H.
900 of whom are in New York city, max
ing the proportion here about one to every

population of 4O,0OO,0OO, has but 5000
lawyers, and Germany has only 1000 out
of population of 5O,0OO,OOO.
Professor L. F. Blake of the University
of Kansas, in an article on "Safety from
Electricity" in the last issue of the Elec-
trio World says: For buildings in cities,
except churches and other high. structures,
rods, think, are unnecessary. Lightning
strikes seldom if the cities compared with
the country, one reason being that the
many electric wires-telephone and tele-
graph and electric ight-are really safe
guards. A building is safer with such
wires over it than without. In the coun-
try, however, buildings may need protec-
ton.
The everlasting hills have been used for
advertising pills, etc., and 1t is probable
that the heavens will soon be used for the
same unromantic purpose. The other night
at Ealing, town half way between Lon
don and Windsor, an enterprising genius,
rejoicing in the name of Sidney Hodges,
succeeded in projecting large and highly
luminous letter on the sky by some means
of his own invention, and demonstrated to
an interested party of spectators that with
the electric light there would be no diff
Guilty in displaying not only letters, but
words and signals in the same fashion.
The Lebsl rifle, with which the French
infantry in Dahomey are armed, appears to
be effective. There was prediction that
the small cslibre of the Lsbel bullet was
going to give the French soldier an advan-
tage, and the examples Of its force, speed
and general deadliness now cited fulfill
what was predicted. In morning attack
of Dahomsns from the cover of wood,
the Lebels told so well that even when the
natives were thrown back on the woods,
the trees did not shelter them. Bullets
pierced the largest trees and killed men
behind them. The rending action>of the
bullets is also reported to have been ter
rible, and one would conclude must be
reckoned a new horror of war when the
Lsbel rife is used. The wounds inflicted
were not tiny, clean incisions, as it was
anticipated they would be, but looked like
the work of explosive bullets.
