CURIOUS SUPERSTITION.

II Is we'll known that sailors think II Is
bad luck to know how to swim.
A striking confirmation Of this super
stition recently occurred of Buzzard's
Bay. "a
The brig Aquatic went ashore in q
stormy night and dangerous sea
life-boat commanded by Captain
Timothy Akin with five volunteers went
to the rescue OF the Aquatics crew. The
New York Tribune tells the story:
THE rescuers, inspirited by their lion
hearted commander, fought their way
10 the reefs. For one moment the life
boat was close under the stern. Hardly
had Captain Akin time 10 call out for a
line before the beat was overturned by
the breakers. Two OF the oarsmen sank
TO the bottom without a struggle Two
chung for a few minutes to the bottom
Of the boat and were then swept away.
The brave captain sought to help with
an oar the fifth man. Joseph Tilton, who
could not swim. With the aid OF rope
Tilton was drawn to- the deck and was
the oriy man saved. Captain Akin made
a desperate fight for life, but the rope
slipped just as he wGs about to be hauled
to the deck and he fell headlong into
the surging sea.
I'm this way six heroes OF the coast
perseyered in gallant. II ll-judged, at
tempt 10 save life. Only one OF the six
returned, and he was the one who ought
not TO have ventured out at all, since he
could not swim. The others persisted,
most of them leaving wives and children
TO mourn them"

TRoLLEYs sUPERsEDE CABLE ROAD.

In both branches OF the Philadelphia
City Council last Thursday night ordi-
nances were introduced and will be pass
ed-so the Philadelphia papers say-com-
pletely abolishing the cable car system
Of that city and substituting the electric
trolley.
own observation and experience when 1t
says:
1T is scarcely surprising that the Trac-
ton Company in view OF the successful
operation OF its electric railway, should
desire TO substitute this form OF propul-
sion for the cumbrous, costly and unrelia-
bic cable system now in use on a portion
Of its lines. The ordinance introduced
in Select Council yesterday looking to
this end win have the tacit or open ap-
proval OF every one who has had occasion
TO use the two system for conveyance.
In comparison with the electric system,
the numbering, Jerking cars OF the cable
roads are not much better than the OBJ
solescent horse cars"
Yet a New York company has Just
spent millions in putting down a cable
line, whose subway we verify believe will
at best be ultimately used only as
conduit for an electric wire. while the
operation OF the cable line viii be annoy
ing and very dangerous.
The prejudice against the trolley in
New York was blind and unreasonable.

To the Editor OF The Times:
Our attention has Just been called TO
the following item in your paper:
1.-THE Democrats Of Jones precinct threw
10 the breeze on Monday beautiful
banner nine by three feet, with portrait
OF their candidate for clerk Of county
court, with the following inscription: w.
]. Binford is the Choice OF the Brooklyn
Club for County Court Clerk Captain
Binford Is gaining strength daily, and
will be the next clerk OF the county
court.
''This club will meet next Tuesday night
at 7:30 o'clock, and prominent speakers
will be present and address the voters.
All invited. W. J. VAUGHAN,
Acting Secretary"
As officers Of this club, we desire TO
saw that no meeting OF Brookland Demo-
cratic Club was held on the date given
in the item mentioned, and had one been
held. no such action as described could
have been taken, as Brookland Demo
cratic Club was organized In the interest
of the Democratic party, and In Its entire
history no favoritism has ever been
shown one Democratic candidate over
another by the club as an organization.
No meeting has been called for next
Tuesday night by any one with authority
10 do so.
In this connection we desire TO call
meeting OF the club for Monday night,
March sth, and invite all candidates for
Democratic support to be present.
BY order OF the president.

Painted by Mr.. william Carrie Browne for
the westmorsland Club.
The portrait of General Robert e. Lee
which was GONE time ago ordered by the
Westmoreland Club as a companion piece
to their picture OF President Jefferson
Davis, has been completed. Mr.. William
earle Browne Is the artist OF both por-
traits, and has made signal success OF
his work.
The picture is a three-quarter length
picture OF Lee. the soldier in the field.
Lee Is represented as Just having
emerged from his tent, and is standing In
a position of easy dignity. The uniform
is the usual gray frock coat with rolling
collar worn by him. the only insignia OF
rank being his stars, the arrangement
of the buttons, and the sash. The fingers
Of the left hand grasp the hilt OF the
sheathed sword just under the upper part
of the guard, the weapon extending at an
angle from the hip and the arm being
slightly bowed The left arm hangs at
the side, the hand clasped and the thumb
to the 'front.' On camp stool TO the left
are General Lees hat and gloves. The
Immediate background to the left is
section OF the Generals tent. above which
droops the foliage OF tree. while to the
right and fading into distant hills outlined
against suhdued but rich sky Is camp.
Mr.. Browne has given to the work an
artistic value independent OF its success
as a portrait. He had q difficult task,
considered from the standpoint OF tone
and light. as they affect the intensities
of the different objects In the picture.
The artist is to be especially congratu-
lated upon his avoidance Of the eDror OF
giving General Lee too "amiable" an ex-
preston. His conception OF his subject
was a man whose heart was as tender
as a woman's, but whose fighting blood
needed but the faintest incentive TO send
II coursing like fire through his veins.
