HARD TIMES AT SEA.
Arrival of More Storm Tossed vessels
Yesterday.

The schooner A. M. Burnham, at this
port yesterday from Georges Banks, re-
ports terribly rough weather on the
Banks, the toughest, in fact, for years.
She had several days experience IN
hurricane that came near sending her to
the bottom Of the sea. Time and time
again her decks were swept, some OF the
crew narrowly escaping being swept into
the sea. Dories were washed about and
knocked into kindling wood. Several
were swept overheard.
The schooner James and Ella, at this
port yesterday from Georges Banks, re-
ports having spoken on the 22d instant,
schooner in, distress. She bore down
upon her and learned that she was the
Gertie S. Winsor. The latter had been
badly shaken up in the storm and had
carried away her foresail, foregaff and
staysail.
The captain of the fishing schooner
Nellie Adams reports that on the 22d
instant he sighted the fishing schooner
Emma Brown, on La Have Banks. Most
of her sails were blown away, and she
was trying to make port under foresail
and topsail. The Emma Brown was re-
ported lost the same day that the Nellie
Adams spoke her. She was on her way
home from the Banks and was blown out
to sea by the gale.

An Austrian Wait.

A poor Austrian waif has been at the
station for few days who gave the name
of Ronnald Hedlicka., Not word Of
English, or apparently any other language
that anybody else about here knew,
could he speak. Yesterday Bohemian
prisoner tried him with several languages
and finally struck an Austrian patois
that Hedlicka caught on to and was able
to tell his story.
Hedlicka said til at he was 81 years of
age and was the son of well to do
parents, and his appearance did not be-
lie his words. At Liverpool he says he
saws he bought tickets the same as those
purchased by Chicago bound party.
Hedlicka was more fastidious than his
fellow travellers and purchased an inter
mediate berth. When he tried to board
the train for Chicago his ticket had ex
PRED, having died on the ship. He fled
from Austria rather than be drafted for
five years in the Austrian army and does
not want to go back. He is ready to
work hard for q living if he can get
something to do.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
Renenyi.


tainly is eccentricity, makes laws unto
itself, and for Remenyi there are no laws
but his own. He has the old fire, the
passion, vigor and abandon which have
always characterized him. One is still
surprised at the variety of the voices
with which his violin speaks, and at the
breadth of tone which he produces.
This tone, pure and not string like in
the higher notes, vibratory and vigorous
in the lower ones, is peculiarly warm and
full Its sound floods the hall, and
where most violinists produce hard
brilliant, why note, Remenyi gets tone
which is broadly pervasiye and resilient.
Tonight he will be heard in the Sixth

to cover it seemed possible that we might
not overtake them.
Carson, Lount and Scott, superbly
mounted, gained on them and came
within half rifle shot, while the other SIX
of us were still $50 yards in the rear. Sud
denly, seeing only three were close upon
them, dozen warriors turned and de-
livered their fire. Scott fell, and his
trained horse came to dead stop. In
the hope of securing at least one scalp the
braves rushed up with tomahawks and
knives. As we pressed forward we could
see in the brilliant moonlight close on
each side of the riderless horse, Carson on
the right and Lount on the left-the two
veteran plainsmen sitting calmly In their
saddles awaiting the onset. We did not
dare to discharge our rifles for fear of
hitting our leaders.
Carson had said calmly: "Their pieces
are empty, Sam. Wait till they almost
touch us.
The Apaches, finding the whites did not
! fire, evidently supposed that their shoot
all-day little guns" were not loaded.
With exultaHt yells they came reeklessly
On. They had reached within fifteen feet
of the impressive horSemen, when SIX
shots, so rapidly discharged that the re-
port of one overlapped another, blazed
out and as many braves went down.
Then, before the remaining six could
turn and run, Carson, giving way to fit
of rage, drove the spurs into his horse S

TWO DAYS With KIT CARSON.
A Story of the Overland Route in the Fifties.
[By W. Thompson )

While crossing the plains en- route to
California in the summer of 1850 we had,
after a long hard journey from St. Louis,
entered the northeastern edge of Arizona.
One forenoon We were plodding slowly
along a little to the south OF where now
runs the Atlantic Pacific railroad, when
half mile or SO ahead on the trail we saw
q single horseman riding swiftly to-
ward US.
"a white man, by thunderi and alone,
boys.'' exclaimed our guide, Sam Lount.
q A mighty risky trick for these parts. -
land why for these parts particu-
larlyg'' asked John Scott, who drove the
leading team.
because, - reioined Lount, 1--WE re on
the stamping ground of the Apaches and
they re always on the Tarpath, ravening
for scalps.
BY this time the lone rider had reached
the head of our line, and singing out the
guide, he courteously saluted him. "You
had better bring your wagons close to-
gether and be ready to form corral at q
moments notice, he said, including us
all. 'tThere's big band of Apaches, led
by that young villain Geronimo, laying
for You behind Baby Range, about eight
miles further on. They intend to stay
there till yon get into the pass, but may
change their minds ana attack in the
open.'
Much Obliged, stranger said our
guide. 'sMy name is Sam Lount; might
] ask yours and how you got clear of the
reds yourself2';
'tWen." smilingly replied the man,
my Sunday name is Christopher, but
Pm generally called Kit-Kat Carson, at
your service.''

corral nor the motion of the wagon after
we resumed our journey disturbed her
life-resteriug sleep.
MONDAY came and we stopped for din
ner, but our guest slumbered peacefully
on. Carson advised young Frazer to take
his place in the wagon by his sisters side.
s1She will waken soon, now that the
motion has ceased, - he said. Let her
see you OF first opening her eyes. Nothing
will SO soften the agony OF returning con-
sciousness.''
/ will pass over the meeting of the
brother and sister and the horrible story
she related later of the massacre of the
whole Kentucky train.
Carson left us next morning with the
gratitude OF our whole party, not one
member of which, in all probability,
with the exception of myself, ever saw
him again.
In due time we reached California.
Mrs. Mcdonald, who had now regained
some degree of her cheerfnlness and her
beauty, went at once to the gold fields
with her brother, and / never again met
either, but l accidentally heard, some
years afterward, that Fraser had realized
a little fortune on the diggings, and, al
ter being only ten months il the country,
had returned with his sister to their old
Kentucky home.
