Torpedo Defense Nets.

Seldom have there been so many
important experiments under way
at the United States torpedo station
at Newport as at present. Perhaps
the most important will be the
testing of the torpedo defense nets,
with which not one of our ships is
yet fitted. These are now rugged
to the United States tug Fortune.
There are three of these nets, two
of which are of American construc-
ton.
For these trials the old projec-
tiles which were used in the trial
of the Ericsson submarine gun at
New York will be used. The gun
will be again subjected to test for
direction of fire, speed and distance,
and for this the new projectiles just
received will be used. Which test
will come first, that Of the gun or
the nets, is not yet decided. An
other test will be the trying of the
Cunningham torpedo, which was
built in New Bedford, and was re-
Gently given a trial under unfavor-
able circumstances.

no word for it, especially when we lay
becalmed in the tropics, with our vessel

after day, each roll being accompanied
by fap of the sails and q Creaking Of

we are apt to think that he must have
had rather a lonely time, but then he
was out only 80 days, and besides, with
all the animals, etc, on board, he had
plenty to occupy his time and attention,
and if he wanted amusement to while
away the time he had only 70 start q

and parrots. True, there Is no report OF
any such proceeding on his part, but
that is doubtless because there was no

BARBAROUS RITES.
FanaticaI Zeal of the Inmates Of
DR.. jacques Private Con-
vent in Montreal.

One Of the most mysterious and
peculiar institutions that could ex-
ist in a modern age has just been
unearthed in the heart of the city
of Montreal, in the midst of French
catholics and French catholicism.
Women immured in private dwell
ling called a convent, their lives
devoted to torture and self-sacrifce,
cut off from the world, sleeping in
collins, Stacking themselves in
chains, a small community entirely
cut off from human ties, such is the
private convent of DR.. Jacques.
The latter is a French physician,
at one time having a good practice
in Montreal, but years ago he be-
came afflicted with what cannot be
called otherwise than a religious
mania. Always of a philanthropic
turn of mind, DR.. Jacques has be-
come insane on one point, that is,
TO found q religious institution
where women tired of the world
could expiate their sins and find
heaven in scourgings and penalties.
The private convent founded in
Montreal by DR.. Jacques has now
come under the examination of the
Roman catholic authorities, and
both Cardinal Taschereau and
Archbishop Faber, at the head of
the diocese of Montreal, have de-
cided to suppress the convent,
which is situated in. Amherst
street.
DR.. Jacques for years past has
labored under the illusion that a
mysterious voice counselled him to
start religious institution. At
first he did not dare to ask the
permission of the authorities of
the catholic church, who laughed
at his plans and pronounced them
impracticable. DR.. Jacques trav-
elled through the greater part of
Europe, all the time watching for
ideas that would favor his scheme
here.
He returned to Montreal in 1886,
when the great smallpox epidemic
was raging in Montreal and the peo-
pie were dying by thousands. He
went heart and soul into the work
of saving the people, and, it is
said attended himself fifteen hun
Cred Cred cases cases Tree OF Charge.
Among the families DR.. Jacques
met was one named Aubin, from
st. Jerome, who had come to Mon
treal with letters of recommends
ton to DR.. Jacques. They all took
the disease, and the six girls in
the family made a VOW that if
their lives were spared they would
turn nuns. This was an oppor-
tunity for which the doctor had
long been looking, and he immedi-
| ately founded his convent. This
was some eight years ago, and
since that time the entire family
have been inmates of this peculiar
institution.
| RIGOROUS DUTIES.
The sisterhood is composed OF
the six Aubin girls, and their
father and mother act as care
takers and drudges for all kinds OF
work, while DR.. Jacques poses as
