careful servant, and was given full sway in
her household duties. SO the family
trusted her implicitly.
The members of the family were ont for
three hours on Sunday after moon, but when
they returned they discovered thai MARY"
was missing. and with her had gone con-
siderable valuable silveTwaTe and Sos in

described as being a tall blonde, with fair
complexion and two front teeth missing.
She is the same woman who pilfered

Burned AT SEA.
The Whaling Bark John p. West
a Total Loss.
She Caught Fire Of Diamond Head and Wa:
Consumed to the Waters Edge-The Crew
Barely Escaped With Their Lives

The destruction by fire of the whaling
bark John p West is reported by the
steamer Australia, which arrived from
Honolulu yesterday. The disaster took
place off Diamond Head, near the harbor
Of Honolulu, on the morning of January
9th, and SO rapidly did the flames spread
that the crew hardly had time to take to the
boats. With the exception OF the chrono-
meters not an article was saved. The boats
containing the crew were picked up by the
steamer Hall and taken 10 Honolulu, where
they arrived before the Australia sailed.
The John p. West left this port on Novem-
Der 18th on whaling cruise, but put into
honolulu in order to land the captain, S
wife, who was in need Of medical attend
ance. The West put 10 sea again on the
following day and was six days out when
the fire broke out, about 4 o'clock on the
morning Of the 9TH. At that time she was
only fifteen miles off Diamond Head.
Captain Huntley says he was on deck Tor
some time previous, and had only turned In
when he heard a cry of fire. He rushed on
deck and found the fire in the tween decks.
Before the order to man the pumps could
be given the flames burst through the hatch
ways, and in very short time the vessel
was on fire fore and ait. Seeing that moth
ing could be done to save the ship the boats
were ordered lowered, and the crew just had
time to escape to them when the flames
seized on every part of the vessel.
The John z. West was owned in New
Bedford. John McKenna Of this city was
managing owner, and she was commanded
by Captain Huntley. She was built at New
Bedford In 1857, and was III feet long, 70
feet beam, II feet deep and had a tonnage
Of 354. She was insured for about $4,000
and valued at SIS, 600. She carried a crew
Of forty all told. The crew remained near
the vessel while she burned to the water
edge and sank.

Wonderful Memory for a Child

An infant phenomenon has been dis.
covered at Plaisance, a suburb of Paris,
in the person of little girl, called
Jeanne Eugene Moreau, aged only five,
but endowed with u most extraordinary
memory. She is q walking encyclopaedia
on all matters appertainiug to the history
of France, and especially of the great re-
volution; is an adept also in natural his.
tory, and at the same time answers with
out hesitation or error practical questions
about cooking, gardening, and house,
hold management. The youthful prods
igy- was born in Paris, in January, 1897,
her father, Philippe DIoreau, being u
humble laborer, but descended from q
revolutionary hero whose name figures
in the annals of 1889, and who was dec
grated by General dc La Fayette after
the taking of the Bastile. Owing to the
poverty of her progenitor, Eugcnfc
Moreau was adopted by widow
Madame Callay-who, noticing the re-
tentive faculties of the child, cultivated
and developed them with assiduity until
the phenomenon has become capable of
passing n stiff competitive examination
and of putting to shame many school,
boy or schoolgirl of maturer years and
more expensive education. The fate of
Eugene Moreau will no doubt be that
reserved for ell! intellectual prodigies of
tender years. She will be exhibited to
scientific men and reported upon; she
will probably receive IN offer from an
entcrprising Snowman, aud in all likeli-
hood Eugene, should she survive acade-
mical testings and public examinations,
will eventually settle down to the life of
schoolmistress-a calling for which her

Protective Mimicry of Nature.

We have often wondered why in "the
struggle for existence" the American
hare, known out West rs the jack-rab-
bit, should turn white amid the SHOWS
OF winter, while the common rabbit re-
tains his gray coat. They inhabit the
same fields and are pursued by the same
foes. 1t is all right to account for the
change of color In the ptarmigan, from
his notified features in June to his snowy
plumage in January as "protcctive
mimicry of nature;" but that makes it
doubiy difficult to say why the other
species of grouse, the American pheasant,
Tor example, does not moult a feather.
The female of the scarlet tanager may
be rendered "more safe" upon her lcafy
nest by her tint of olive green; but does
not her faithful lord who roams the
wood for food in behalf of herself and
her brood, need protection too2 Yet
his coat is as a flame of fire amid the
foliage. Granted that modern scientific
research has immeasurably broadened
the field of known facts, its theories, so
eagerly accepted by many, resemble
more nearly ia thing OF shreds and
patches" than finished web.-New
