THE BIGGEST SEA SERPENT SToRY.-The
mail sceamcr Angola arrived at Liverpool
Thursday with the biggest Sea serpent story
yet told Either the one hundred or moro
officers, passengers and crew are a company
of awful liars, or his majesty, the sea serpent,
mysteriously missing this season from the
American coast, has emigrated to West Africa.
This is the story of the witnesses signed by
everybody on board.
While the vessel was stcaming between Bay
Beach and Lagos, 4 long, moving mass was
discerned about n mile from shore. There
were no fins or flappers to be seen, but the
leviathan was proceeding along at the rate of
five or six miles an hour by an undulating,
wriggling motion. 1t was travelling in an OPP
posite direction to that in which the steamer
was going aud it was kept in sight for more
than ten minutes. 1t was estimated that its
length would be about 200 feet The water
nj the time was as smooth rs a mill pond, so
that an unobstructcd view OF the monster could
be had At one time it raised its enormous
head and looked in the direction of the ship,
showing two tremendous green eyes. 1t was
broad daylight at the time. aud when first
seen the creature was within easy distance,
being readily discerned by the naked eye,
and the glasses which were used only confirm
ed the opinion that it was sea serpent.

"You are looking fustered this morn
ing" observed the senior member of a
big firm on Wabash avenue, good
naturedly, commenting on the appear
ance ola brother merchant who had
called early on business.
"Well, feel 'fiuttered,'" responded
the caller, and then, as if his better
spirits had gained the mastery in the
protracted struggle with chagrin, NOR
tification, etc., q smile spread over his
face as he explained:
'It was mighty good one that my
wife unconsciously got on me last
night, and l don't mind letting you be
the only other person in the world, be-
sides myselfswho knows it. While
downtown calling on friend at one of
the hotels last evening was invited to
sit in little game of poker. 1t wasn't
my night for poker, and becoming con-
vinced of the fact early in the game, |
drew out, and excusing myself, caught
suburban train. While on the train |
naturally fell to balancing the even
ing's account. had $50 in my pocket
when l began playing, and now l found
l had just $40 left. 'oh, WE'LL says 1,
that's getting off easy-only $50 loser,
with an off night against When | got
home my wife-contrary to several
long years Of counsel from me-was sit
ting up awaiting my return.
'"'Hello,' she says, you're home
nice and early-did you meet your
friend?'
"'0h, yes, said 1, drawing myselfup
and assuming a bogus air OF victory.
Yes, met my friend and some of his
friends, too
's'Had little game, l suppose, be-
fore you left, she observed, knowing
that | take hand occasionally.
Yes, did, replied, and then just
to cater bit to my pride, l added, 'and
l won $40
'''Won $40, did your said she. We'll,
if you did, let me count itand see ifyou
counted straight
"'Of course, | will, said tossing her
the $40 that | had saved from the
wreck. As she counted the bills slow
ly, she said;
MY dear, I have been thinking
somewhat earnestly of late on this mat
ter of poker-playing, and have made up
my mind firmly that all money won by
men at cards should be used in but one
way-given to charity. Ofcourse, you
don't care two snaps either way, so I'll
keep this $40 and tomorrow distribute
it among the more deserving institu-
tions.'
Il never got so quick, quiet and COM
plete Knockout before in all my life
and probably no $40 streak of good
luck befell charity less unexpectedly"

DIXIE OF CLARENCE DEAD.
RE PASSED AWAY YESTERDAY MORNING.
pp1yCEss MARY INCoNsOLABLE-How THE NEWS
WAS RECEIVED IN LONDON-PRINCE
GEORGE BECOMES HEIR
PRESU UMPTIVE

Iondon. JAN l4-The Duke of Clarence and
lvondale is dead. The Prince of Wales this
morning sent the following telegram to the Lord
Mayor Of London:
Our beloved son passed away at Q o'clock to-day.
ALBERT EDWARD.
On receipt of the news, the Lord Mayor al once
raye orders to have the great bell in ST. Pauls
csrhedral toled. lie also sent the following
message 10 the Prince of Wales
We are profoundly moved by the sod news, and have
communicated 1t TO our feow-ci:izens. We tender
deep respectful sympathy with ROYAL Hghnoss
In this great sorrow and National calamity.
The bells in St. Pauls are never tOlled save
on the occasion of the death of an heir to
the throne; therefore no further information was
necessary to make the people of London aware
that after gallant struggle the Duke had
finally succumbcd The bells in Westminster
Abbey were tolled from II O'Clock unlil 1. The
announcement of his death caused far less COM
motion in the city than had been expected; but
this was doubt due to the fact that nearly
everybody had given up hope yesterday.
The telegram from the Prince of Wales to Lord
Mayor Evans announcing the death of the Duke.
was not posted at the Mansion House until 1880
o'clock When the little piece of white paper
was put up there were only few persons waiting.
They received the news with stolid indifference.
In the West End there was scene that was in
striking contrast to the indifference displayed
in the vicinity of the Mansion House. Hundreds
of persons well known in London society gathered
in little groups and gravely discussed the death
of the Duke and its effect upon the succession.
The blinds of the public houses and of many
of the private houses and shops are drawn, both
In the West End and in the city. The afternoon
panrs all appear with mourning borders.
