ord Tor . Season.
The record Of the Staten Island Cricket Club
for the past season shows that the club had
more successful year than they have had for
several summers. OF the seventeen games
played only three were lost, while some Of tho
victories were by such large amounts that the
average per wicket gives them 10. ~ runs TO
their opponents 9. The largest score made
was 231. for three wickets. against New York.
and the 200 mark was passed on several oc-
casions. a memorable ono being in the game
against Manhattan. when tho Islanders won
the championship OF tho Metropolitan District
Cricket League.
The batting OF s. II. Barton and the bowling
Of ]. L. Pool were tho features OF the year.
Without the services OF the latter the club
would have a very different record. His aver.

obeyed the commands of his father
Goyer describes the passage as follows
From the time we struck the rapids
until we reached the lower eld of them
Johl seemed being INSPIRED HIS eyes
We're fairly glistening and shooting fire
| thought they would leap from their
sockets with the tremendous excite
ment His long, THU paddle would
sweep the air like flash and be buried
in the foaming water, swinging the boat
hither and thither, avoiding this Jutung
rock and then that one A continuous
stream OF commands IN French flowed
from his lips to his son Murray, who
was nearly the equal of his father IN
dexterity, Now and then he directed
me in broken English to do something
He was picture that no artist would
ever forget, and that would haunt INN
until he had reproduced it on canvas"
The trip was one Of excitement and
peril from beginning to end, the boat
passing from one rapid to another IN
succession, 1t filled continually with
water and kept Wait and Goyer busy
bailing, When they reached the whml
pool the last and most dangerous spot,
Big John gave his final command, and
it came near also being his last on earth
He shouted to Murray, the boy, to pad
die hard, and as the lad shifted his posi-
ton to take n longer and stronger stroke
he lost his balance and fell over on lis
back in the bottom of the boat The
mighty Indian, quick as a wink, threw
himself down fiat in the boat, and thus
saved it from being capsized, the heavy
waves throwing twenty buckets of
water all over the party Big John was
up again in a second, and with two or
three powerful strokes he spun the boat
around and sent her nose straight into
the waves again,
The whole incident did not occupy
more than six seconds, and then the
boat shot down into the home channel
in few seconds more. Big John threw
his paddle into the bottom of the boat
and, almost exhausted from the violent
exertion and excitement, sank down
into the stern sheets All danger was
passed, bht he fully realized what Il
close shave the party had had as he
pointed back at the whirlpool and said
"Je croyais qu'on allait au ciel tout
rond" Which was translated, II thought
we were going to heaven, boat and all
The boat was pulled out at Jacques Car,
tiers landing by willing hands Big
John gave Goyer his paddle as IL re-
iiiinder of the trip, and announced that
that was the last time he would ever
shoot the Lachine rapids in winter

An Indian Shoots the Dangerous La
chine Rapids in Midwinter.
To shoot the Lachine Rapids in the
St. Lawrence river in a hatboat Is no
trifling matter and live to tell about it
afterward, but to shoot these world ia
nous rapids ip the middle of winter
with the boiithg, tempestuous waters
filled with large cakes of ice and drift
wood, is still more hazardous. Yet
big john" the Caughnawaga Indian
has for the last fourteen years on every
New Years day made this perilous trip
Peculiar as it may seem, Big John has
always taken some one with him on
these trips. This year he made the same
dangerous shoot, but it will be his last.
On the morning of the first of the year
Big John, who lives down the river from
Lachine, came up to the village to see if
any one had come up from Montreal to
accompany him. He found two young
men, utter strangers to him and to each
other One, George Wait, was from
Montreal, while the other, Frederick
Goyer, came from back countrie."
The men walked down to Big Johns
house, a distance of three miles. Here
they launched their boat, and the party
was increased by one more, Big Johns
son Murray 1t took only half an hour
to work out through the ice and heavy
water to reach the top of the rapids. As
the boat approached them Big John
stood up in the stern with his long pad
die in his hand ready for the shoot.
Rocks glistened on all sides with their
icy coats; huge waves dashed high
leaped over the frail boat and threatened
to swamp her. Goyer was kept busy
bailing out with Wait. while Murray

An Ancient Relic.

A novel and very interesting relic of
the days when the Indians held undis.
puted sway in this part of the country
has been found near Coupeville, Wash
ington. 1t is the head of some instru.
ment, probably a war club, and is
formed from what appears to be wal
rus tusk, the point of which is broken
off. 1t is about ten inches long, and in
the centre is a hole trite less than an
inch square, evidently intended for the
reception of a handle. AS walrus are
not now found in the sound, the weapon
probably belonged to some of the far
northern tribes, and was dropped dur
ing one Of their frequent predatory ex.
cursions in this vicinity. -Portland Ore

of construction, termed locomotive
steamboat, built at Kristanstud, for the
navigation of chain of small lakes,
separated by falls, the boat being fitted
for this purpose with wheels fitting a
track, and power may be applied to
either the propeller or the driving wheels
of the locomotive part of the machine;

About Ready to Start.

The mammoth tin mills Of the
Harvey Park Tin Company were put
into operation Tuesday to test
the machinery. Everything was
found to work to perfection. Several
tons of tin ore (cassiterite) were run
through the various machines as
smoothly as though the mill had
been in operation for years. The
test was entirely satisfactory to Supt.
Childs and the company Of mining
experts who witnessed it. Every
thing is now in readiness for i'm
mediate actian with the exception Of
completing the large ore bin and the
detail work upon the railroad spurs to
the mines. Supt. Childs hopes to be
able to ship several carloads Of block
tin to New York before the national
election, to refute the statement OF

row and empty vault, precious only

tragedy of the centuries, but the new
continent was to be the home and
temple of the living God.
The rulers of the old world began
with partitioning the new. To them
the discovery was expansion Of en-
pire and granduer to the throne.
The nations or Europe were so
completely absorbed in dynastic
difficulties, and devastating wars,
with diplomacy and ambitions, that,
they neither needed nor heard of the
growing democratic spirit and intelli-
gence in their American colonies.
To them these provinces were sources
of revenue, and they never dreamed
that they were also schools of liberty.
If the people of the old world and
their defendants had not possessed the
opportunities offerded by the New
for their emancipation, and mankind
had never experienced and learned
the American example, instead OF
living in the light and glory of the
ninteenth century conditions, they
would still be struggling with
mediaeval problems.

AN UNUSUAL STEP.
Members of Chicago Unions Will Pur-
chase Goods Only of Union Clerks.

Members of Chicago Unions Will Pur
chase Goods Only of Union Clerks.
The trades assembly of Chicago
have taken an unusual step in
requesting all members of the various
trades unions of the city to require
every clerk in the hundreds of cloth
ing stores to exhibit union card
before purchasing goods Of any
description from such clerk. Many
of the clerks are inclined to resent
this project as an unjust kind Of
espionage, and claim that, were the
same plan carried out to its logical
limits, untold inconvenience and
annoyance would result in almost
every branch of business. The
employers sympathize with the views
of the clerks, and at the same time
are afraid to declare themselves
opposed to the assembly's scheme for
fear of boycott. The probabilities
are, however, that before another
month every clothing clerk will be
wearing badge indicating member
ship in the union. Then the same
course will be pursued with street
car conductors, butchers, bakers,
shop girls, and men and women in
almost every line of business.
