could not find work, that he was strapped

OFF With The BUOYS.
The Tender Madr0nO Starts on
Her Southwark Trip
To Visit All the Stations and Replace Buoys
Between San Francisco and San Diego.
An Outline of the Steamers Work.

The steam lighthOuse-tender Madrono
left Broadway wharf yesterday morning
for the southern station of the local buoy
and lighthouse district, TO be absent three
weeks. During this time the tender will
take up, examine and replace all the buoys
between San Francisco and San Diego.
The operations will be directed by Com
mander Thomas Perry. U. S N, and the
steamer viii also take down enough sup
plies TO certain lighthouse stations TO last
for one year.
The work Of changing and repairing the
buoys is quite important. for these aids to
navigation are often struck by passing
steamers, broken. penetrated or drfted out
of position by passing steamer in the night
time. In such cases either the line of flota-
ton of the buoy is altered and is seen with
difficulty, or. being removed from its true
position, il becomes source of danger and
a false guide instead Of an element Of
safety.
The MadronO's deck when she left looked
as If an assortment Of gigantic pumpkins
had been dumped on it, She carries all the
different classes of buOys, namely,
"whistlers," bell, nun, can and spar buoys,
each of which has a utility Of its own.

where the sound range is shorter and
smoother water prevails. 1t has the adj
vantage, like the whistling buoy. of acting
in f0gs. which render all other buoys use
less. since they cannot be seen.
The spar buoy is simply a long conicsl
log, painted with eolored horizontal stripes,
so as to make them conspicuous. They have
the disadvantage of being exposed TO injury
from the prOpellers Of passing steamers,
but are otherwise cheap and serviceable.
The nun buoy is almost eonical In form /;
the can buoy is in shape the frustum of a
cone nearly approaching the cylinder. Each
is laid down according TO fixed rule, well
known to nav gators, and channels opening
from the sea have red buoys with even
numbers on the right and black with odd

White Hair Turning Black.

There Is nothing unusual in hair turning
white, but case in which hair turned
black after being white was recently told
by a gentleman from Detroit. A lady
oil that city originally had black ewes
and hair, but in the course of time.
when she had attained the age of about
40 years. her hair turned pure white. This
was expected; but about a year ago her
hair began darkening. and is now as black
as jet. There Is no doubt about the change,
nor was any artificial means used to pro.
duce II, so that the case is certainly one of
the most remarkable recorded in the an
nails of medical history. The lady was not
conscious OF any change in diet or in her
physical condition that would justify the
curious phenomenon, so 1t is absolutely in-
