TO SAVE THE Ships.
For That Purpose Two Poets Have
Written Ringing Poems.

The Effort of Oliver Wendell Holmes in
Behalf of Old Ironsides Duplicated by
Conan Doyle in Defending Nelson's
Flagship from Destruction.
It is worthy of notice that two poets
now living have saved the countries to
which they belong from lasting disgrace.
In each instance their indignant verse
prevented the destruction of ship that
had been the scene of heroic deeds and
glorious victory. 1t is more than half
century since Oliver Wendell Holmes
wrote:
Aye, tear her tattered ensign down!
Long has it waved on high,
And many an eye has danced to see
That banner in the sky;
Beneath it rung the battle shout,
And burst the lannon's roar
The meteor of the ocean air
Shall sweep the clouds no morel
Her deck, once red with heroes blood,
Where knelt the vanquished foe,
When winds were hurrying DER the flood
And waves were white below.
No more shall feel the victors' tread
Or know the conquered knee
The harpies of the shore shall pluck
The eagle of the sea.

Generous Hebrews.

B. A. Levy, of London, and G. |. Cohn,
of Sydney, both of whom are well known
Hebrews, have contributed 100000
toward the support of needy working
men in Manchester and Liverpool. The
money, which was bequeathed to them
by their relative, Mr.. David Lewis, will
be largely spent in erecting laborers'
cottages after the Peabody model.

And give her to the GOD OF storms,
The lightning and the gale!
II was this poem that preserved Old
Ironsides-one of the noblest crafts that
ever carried valiant sailors and with
stood iron hail in the service of the Unit
ed States of America. Had it not been
for Holmes splendid invective she would
today be nothing save memory.
A similar experience has recently agi-
tated the patriotic people of England,
and the result has been practically iden-
teal with that which caused ''the uni
versal Yankee nation" to lay its tribute
of regard at the feet of Holmes. Some
weeks ago the admiralty sold Lord Mel
sons fine old flagship, the Foudroyant,
to a German firm to be chopped up into
.frewood. A London paper, in announc-
ing the fact, remarked that this was
nothing unusual Only three years be-
fore England sold Nelson's pet trophy of
the battle of the Nile-the magnificent
Canopus-taken from the French and
named by Nelson himself. Even the
Victory was nearly sold to the ship
breaker in 1880, when the admiralty of
the day actually proposed to have Mel
sons Trafalgar flagship destroyed. 1t
was only Hardy's urgent remonstrances,
backed by letters in the papers, that
saved the Victory for England, or she,
too, would have shared the fate of the
fighting Temeraire and the Bellerophon.
The Foudroyant's threatened fate, how
ever, was harder than the fate of these.
She, the only existing ship, except the
Victory, in which Nelson fought, was to
be broken up in a foreign land by Ger
man frewood traders.

Many People.
When the southeastern Indiana con-

Salem few days ago slender and
quiet girl of fifteen years-a girl with
pale, but rather pretty face and long
light hair-took her seat among them.
OF course she did not lift up her voice

A Newspaper Manager Who Lined His
Own Pocket.
CHICAGO, H., July IA case of sensa-
tional endorsement that has been going
on for ten years was revealed to-day.
It appears that in 1888 Charles V.
Whaley became the cashier for the
Journal, and, having gained the conf
dence of his employers, was promoted
TO the managership in 1885, Fred S.
Ashley being placed in the position
as cashier One of Whaley's duties
was to examine the cashiers books
at stated periods. On these occasions
he invariably reported the books
correct and in proper shape. Last No
vember Whaley fell sick and w. A.
Hutchinson was appointed in his place.
Hutchinson discovered that everything
was not right, and it is now asserted
that both Whaley and Ashley had been
systematically robbing the Journal and
covering up their populations by false
entries. Experts have been going over
the books for four or five months, be-
ginning the investigation with 1888. So
far a discrepancy Of $4,000 has been
discovered and the end is not yet.
Neither Of the culprits has as yet been
arrested. Ashley is not now connected
with the Journal, but is said to be en-
gagged in real estate business in New

AN ARMY OF MEN IDLE.

Shutdown of Iron Mills Throughout
the Couutry-15, 600 Out of Work.
PITTSBURG., Pa, July When the
clocks tolled twelve strokes last night,
and the first day of July made Its ap-
pearance, nearly 10000 workmen, who
had toiled almost necessarily the past
year, were out of employment. The
scale in force during the past year eA-
pired at midnight, and in all
mills, the proprietors,of which have not
signed the scale for the ensuing year,
work ceased entirely at that time. An
other class of workmen accepted their
release with comparative pleasure.
These were the employees of
the various glass factories through
out the United States. On the
last day of June of each year the
glass factories all shut down according
10 custom for from four to eight weeks,
to make repairs, lay in stock, etc. The
men employed in these places look for
ward to the annual rest with great salts
faction. The glass workers are only
idle temporarily, and resume their old
also been the custom for several years
past for the iron and steel masters to
adopt a similar policy to that of the
glass manufacturers, aud heretofore
they have shut down their mills for two
weeks, beginning with the first
Monday IN July. That such
custom must prevail was en-
bodied in a rule of the Amalgamated
Association, which has now been alb ro-
gated, and all manufacturers can run
their mills continuously, providing the
scale has been signed by them.
The number of iron and steel mills
that closed down last night is estimated
at upwards of 400. There are 400 rolling
mills in the United States, 425 of whic Ii
have trainsof rolls connected with their
establishments. Twenty-Five or fifty
of these have been idle for
some time past. Of the 400
in operation until last night nearly
800 are situated west of the Allegheny
Mountains. Quite q number Of these
have signed the scale, leaving about $50
mills idle. These employ upwards of
100000 men. The number of glass fac
tories which are not in operation to-day
is placed at 200, and the men are estim-
ated at nearly $4,000.
Affairs were quiet at Homestead and
in this city to-day. The streets were
filed with idle men, but the best of
order was maintained. There were no
signatures to the scale since last night.
The conference called by the
manufacturers is in session this after
noon, and strong hopes of a compro-
mise are entertained, as it is generally
believed that each side is willing to 60 q
short way in the direction of making
concessions

1t Is a Good Rough Water Craft and
Seeks to Race with Americans.
New YORK, July 1.-The sloop yacht
Bermuda from Bermuda, which arrived
here Tuesday, is lying at the Atlantic
Yacht Club anchorage, off Bay Ridge,
L. /. She sailed for New York June Is,
with the view Of an extended
trip N American waters. During
her twelve days passage the
yacht experienced much stormy
weather. 1t blew terrific gale
in the Gulf Stream, and the little craft
was with difficulty kept afioat on the
21st by the constant use of oil inclosed
in drag. The Bermuda is looking for
contests and hoping tor victory here.
She is a rough weather boat, and will
hardly stand chance with the Ameri-
can Yacht of her size in emooth water.
The yacht is 4S feet keel, built Of Ber-
muda cedar, Is feet beam, and draws 6
feet inches Of water; mast, II feet;
one long raking spar, on which IS spread
420 yards of cotton canvas; she is
of % tons measurement, and the first
yacht of her rig that ever entered
the waters of the United States. Capt.
Never asserts this to be the best kind
Of sea-going, single-mast rig in the
world, and wants to prove that he can
lay closer to the wind than any other
sloop or schooner-rigged craft now
afioat. The Bermuda will remain in
New York for few weeks, when she
will sail up the Hudson, row through
the Erie Canal, and, after taking q
fresh water spin, return before Noyem-
Der to Bermuda again.

ARIZONA MYSTERY FATHOMED.
The Secret of the Haunted Glen is Re.

TOMBSTONE, Ariz.. July IA reason
able solution has at last been given to
the many mysterious happenings that
have for a long time been reported
from what is known as the Haunted
Glen,' near this city. This glen Is
about seven miles north of here, and
has long been looked upon as one of the
greatest natural curiosities Of the
continent. One of the most remark
able things is that when person lies
down in the glen he hears whispering
of voices apparently close to, his ear:
Sometimes he can hear words and at
times get entire sentences. An lnvestl-
CATION by scientists has shown that the
apparently mysterious happenings in
the glen are due purely to natural
causes. The peculiar construction of
the glen brings the sounds from certain
ranch near by into the place in the
shape Of whispers, as was proved by sta
tioning person at the point Indicated
and recording what was said. The cool
ness is caused by the fact that the sun
has never shone in the glen, and the
movement Of light articles are caused
by the constant rushing of cold air
toward the exterior.

A LINER AGROUND.
The City of Chicago on the Rocks on the
British Coast.

LONDON, july 2.-The Inman Line
steamer City Of Chicago, Capt. Redford,
which LETT New York June % for Liver
pool is ashore on the Irish coast. The
steamer went ashore in dense fog
about half a mile inside the west head
of Kinsale. The steamer ran her stem
into the cliff within half an hour of high
water. The sea was smooth and
the wind was moderate from
the southwest and light. The
west head of Kinsale is about
twenty miles west of Queenstown. 1t
is supposed she is grounded at point
known as Darrell Rocks. She is in bad
position, and from all that can be
learned at present, it is believed that it
will be a difficult task to get her afoat.
The passengers and mails from the
stranded steamer were landed by means
of the life boats. The fore compart-
ment of the steamer is full of water,
evidently the result Of her bottom COM
ing in contact with the jagged rocks.
The weather is so thick that the tugs
have not yet succeeded in clearing the
harbor and will experience considera-
bic difficulty in reaching the disabled
liner. The City of Chicago is an iron
steamship OF 1888 tons. She was built
in GLASGOW in 1888

proof that the house was given over to
the orgies which she had described.

which she volunteers to give the names
of a number of persons moving IN the
highest ranks of aristocratic English
society, whom she said were fire.
