THE MALAY COOK.
An Adventure on a Homeward-
Bound Steamer.

The ship Amanda Wentworth" H.
Seabright, master, dropped anchor in
Halifax harbor one morning IN June.
Without delay her captain and first
mate came ashore, and gave themselves
into custody for having killed the ships
cook. This act, they deposed, had
been absolutely unavoidable, absolute
ly essential to the safety of the ship and
crew; but the circumstances were
peculiar, and they desired the fullest
official investigation that they might
be protected from calumny
AS is the case with SO many Nova
Scotia vessels. the Amanda Went
worth" was chiefly engaged in the
South American trade, In the present
instance, after having discharged a
cargo of hides and tallow in Philadel-
phia, instead of returning to Monte
video the amanda Wentworth" had
got a consignment of freight for Hall
fax. A portion of this consignment
consisted of explosives, dynamite and
heavy blasting powder for the Nova
Scotian mines; and the freight charges
on such a consignment being enor-
mously high, the amanda Went
worth" expected to make good thing
out Of the voyage.
Having heavy interest in the
Amanda Wentworth" and no slight
interest moreover, in the captains
daughter, who was sure to be in the
city to meet her father, went to Hall
fax as soon as the ships arrival was
reported On reaching the city that
same evening. the first thing l heard
was an alarming rumor that the cap

been guilty of some grave crime at
sea, and had given themselves up TO

Good judges say that ono Of tho next lo-

from n substantial town to a thriving NAG.
tropoiis In few years will be the city ~
Superior, Wisconsin, and this, too, without
the effort and struggle through which In
terror towns have passed while cffecting
the same result Untila year or two ago
tho average man did not stop to think that
Superior as monopolist of the water and
rail iermsni atone end OF the lakes Is IN the
same position as Buffalo at the other end.
Figlffes are embarrassing unless given
briefly, bnt comparisons are always lmpor-
tant. This little Superior, credited by its
last census with only %, COO people, handled
more coal last year than did Chicago; of
grain, 1T shipped nineteen million bushels;
OF -four, sixteen hundred thousand barrels;
Of wool, four million pounds; OF merchan-
disc, to the value of thirteen million dol-
lars OF all lake cities this business was
second only to Chicago in magnitude.
There is an economical reason for this con-
dition of things Its that the rail rate on
freight sent west Of Lake Michigan Is one
cent per ton per mile, while the water rate
is onc-tsnth Of one cent per ton per mile:
This position at the extreme western end OF
Lake Superior Is what gives the city OF Su-
perior its prestige, and is making II grow
faster than Chicago ever did Besides one
hundred and one smaller industrial con-
Germs, Superior has located twenty eight
large manufacturing enterprises in the past
eighteen months including the American
Steel Barge Company, the builders OF the
famous 'swhaleback" vessel, which IS revo-
lutionizing the lake and ocean freight car
rying trade. The twenty eight institutions
above mentioned, include iron and steel
plants, -four mills, stove fonndries, wagon
factoriesppump makers, shipbuilders and
saw aud shinge mills. The most censervaz
tive business men in the Northwest believe
that Superior will grow faster In the next
ten years than ann. other city In that pros
porous section Of the country, and many Of
them claim that Chicago st Paul, Mime
apolis and Milwaukee have never seen the
rapid growth that will como to the head Of
the great chain of lakes and the city of Su-
perior.
