A. M oANNoN's RICH STRIKE
He VIII Clear Over $4,000 From the
Abercorn's Wreck

He Will Clear Over 100000 From the
Abercorn's Wreck
A few years ago the ship Abercorn,
with cargo of steel rails, went ashore
on the weather beach near Gray's Har-
Dor. A. NJ. Cannon, the Spokane mill
ionaire, bought the wreck for $4,000,
and is now engaged in taking out the
rails.
Captain George Pease, of Portland,
has charge of the work. The ship lies
! lust outside the breakers, and pier
| / $50 feet long has been built from the
beach out to the wreck. Altogether
thirty-five men are at work. These
include four professional divers who
are paid $40 day for four hours work,
and $4 day when not engaged. Suits
are also provided for them at a cost of
So day for each diver.
The wreck lies in twenty-four feet of
water at high tide and twelve at low
the higher the tide the better the divers
can work, as the sea is then compare
lively still below, the breakers rolling
over the divers and not bothering them
IN their work. -Four rails make ton
and a ton is raised at a time. The
divers adjust the chains around the
ends of the rails, then give the signal
to hoist and two engines do the rest.
During this fine weather from fifty to
one hundred tons are lifted out daily.
The ship carried 1890 tons and 800 tons
have already been taken out. 1t is eX-
pected that the work will be ended
some time in August, and possibly
sooner.
After the rails are taken out they
are loaded ON wagons and hauled
along the beach five miles. They are
then placed upon a railway built by
the wreckers and carried mile across
the peninsula to point on Gray's har-
Dor where they can be loaded either on
the railroad or on vessel and carried
to market. They are worth from $50
to $50 ton in Portland, and as they
can be gotten there for 81 ton, or less
than S. from the wreck itself, it is seen
that Mr.. Cannon has hold of 100000
proposition, and all between that figure
and the cost of the undertaking will be
profit. The profits will be somewhere
between $4,000 and 100000. The rails
are not injured in the least. They
were covered with coal tar before being
placed in the vessel and when this is
scraped off the red sand of the blast is
still found attached to the steel.
Mr.. Cannon went into the enterprise
after a number of professional wreckers
had pronounced it impracticable.

KILLING POULTRY.
How Farm People Prepare Chickens TO,
Market in England.

How Farm People Prepare Chickens for
Market in England.
Mr.. Tegetmeier, in an article on farm
poultry in the journal of the Royal Agri-
cultural Society'of England, says: "With
regard to the mode of killing fowls in
tended for sale, the almost universal
practice in England is to break their
necks. This should be done by Selling
the legs of the fowl in the left hand and
the head in the right, the back of the
bird being upward and the comb in the
hollow of the hand.
IF the legs of the bird are then held
against the left hip and the head against
the right thigh near the knee, by strong
ly extending the fowl, at the same time
bringing the head suddenly backward,
the latter is dislocated from the top of
the neck and death results instantane-
ously, all the larger vessels being torn
across and the blood escaping into the
skin of the neck. Muscular c]ontractions
remain, however, for some minutes, dur
ing which time the fowl, if put down,
knocks itself about, bruising the flesh.
1t should, therefore, be held in the hand
or hung up by a string around the legs to
a hook in the ceiling. The fowl having
been killed, should be plucked while
warm; in fact, the professional killers
proceed to remove the feathers immedi-
ately after dislocating the neck, as they
then come out very easily and the skin
does not tear.
"There is no cruelty in doing this, sven
if it be before the muscular contractions
have ceased, as the head of the fowl is
removed from the body, being connect
ed only by the skin, and all sensation is
at an end. When carefully plucked the
fowls should be placed on their backs,
the hooks being tied together, the wings
twisted behind the back and the neck al
lowed to hang down, SO that the fluid
blood accumulates in it. Under no Cir
cumstances should the breast bone be
broken, as it deteriorates very much the
value of the fowl. 1t is needless to say
that the legs and feet, if they are soiled,
should be washed before the birds are
sent to market"

ARRESTED AT NANCY.

Only a few years ago all the secret plans
of the fortress of Strasburg were sold by a
Swedish ex-captain living in Germany to
the French government for the paltry sun
of $500.
The captain was found out shortly after
ward white e~ndeavoring to obtain the plans
of another fortress, for which correspond
ence found upon him showed he had been
offered the huge sum of $50 francs. He
was sentenced to fifteen years. hard labor,
but the French government had the plans
all the same, and the Germans puzzled
their brains for a considerable time after
ward in speculation as to whether their
great rival had not been furnished with all
the plans of German Notifications by this
same artist. Nothing, however, was dis
covered, not even the individual who had
acted as middleman between the captain
and the French government, and who GER
tainly, judging by the prices paid to the
Swede, had taken the financial cake in
these transactions.
After this occurrence the German govern,

With regard to France, matters are just
as bad as they are in Germany, and per-
haps in some instances worse. The Ger
man population as a rule leaves the spy
catching trade to their stubborn officials,
while in France, where patriotism is more
~fervent, every citizen of the third republic
thinks it his sacred duty to look with a
suspicious eye on every foreigner who en-
tiers the country. Innumerable mistakes
are the result, and innocent travellers are
often placed in extremely annoying posi-
tions. Yet it must be admitted that Ger
man spies are not only plentiful in France.

debts do not exactly dishonor a man. it was
possible for him to keep up his connections
with his former comrades and even to
make new friends. Though everybody
knew that Bonnet was penniless, he lived
in good style and seemed always to be pos
sessed Of comparatively ample means. One
day he travelled to Belfort, where he made
special inquiries with regard to the new
forts. He obtained a good deal of infor-
nation, but one of the officers became sus-
picious, and communicating his impress

He was arrested at Nancy, where he had
gone to confer with a German agent. The
scoundrel made Il clean breast and admit
ted that for several months he had fur

fortified French places along the German
frontier to German spies, and that for such
services he had been paid.
