hour. Under these conditions of speed
and tonnage the Molly's Hope, which
was a good sailer and easily handled,
answered all the requirements of pas

islands, islets and reefs

Allaire did not remain inactive while

ing out every detail, using her fortune
with free hand, not being willing TO
neglect the smallest matter which
might contribute to the success of the
expedition.
BY July II the Mollys Hope was ready
TO put 70 sea. Mrs. Allaire went on
board in the morning in order TO exact
last promise from Capt Willis TO do
everything in his power to discover
traces of the lost ship. She had no
doubt in her own mind that he would
succeed. They would bring John, they
would bring his crew back with them
In tone of such profound conviction
did she repeat these words that the
crew broke out in applause. Every man
on board was infected with her deep
faith, as were the friends ana relatives
who had come 10 see the Molly's Hope
sail"
Turning TO Mrs. Aliaire and Andrew
Hollister, who stood by her side, Capt
Willis cried out:
"In your presence, madam, and in
yours, Mr.. Hollister in the name of my
officers and my crew, ! make solemn
oath not to be discouraged by any dan
ger or any fatigue in my search for
Capt John and the men of the Dread
naught This vessel which you, madam,
have fitted out, bears the name OF Mol
lys Hope. / shall take care that she
deserves it,"
"With the aid of God and of the de-
votion of those who put their faith in
Him!" exclaimed Mrs. Allaire.
"Hurrah Hurrah! for John and Mol
ly Allaire"
These cheers were taken up and re-
peated by the vast assemblage gathered
on the wharf.
The lines were now cast Off and the
Molly's Hope, under the pressure of the
first revolutions of her screw, moved oil
away from her moorings and headed for
the narrows. She soon left the cape on
the southwest and steaming boldly out
to sea disappeared from the gaze of the
thousands who had collected to wish
her Godspeedl

A Wise Loon.

One calm day in the fall of 1890 my
brother while cunning off Cohasset,
succeeded in severely wounding young
loon. After sharp chase he penned
the bird between his boat and the rocks,
which were some hundred yards dis
tant. As the loon dived my brother
rowed on for dozen strokes, and then
stood up, gun in hand, expecting to Sc
cure she loon when he rose by quick
shot. To his astonishment, however, no
loon appeared, and, after waiting few
minutes, he was about to resume his
oars and row back to his decoys, when
he suddenly discovered narrow cleft
in the rock, and, more from curiosity
than from any real belief that the loon
was concealed there, he rowcd toward
il. As he approached he saw that the
cleft extended in some six or eight feet,
and was partially filled with water.
Taking in his oars, he went forward,
and. as his eyes grew accustomed to
the darkness, he saw the loon at the ex-
treme end of the cleft, stretched out at
full length, with only his head and
neck out of water. Backing water for
a few strokes, my brother raised his
gun and ended the looms earthly career
then and there. think, however, that
a bird who made such q pluoky fght
for his life and came so near escaping
should have been left unmolested In the
hiding place which his wonderful
,agacity had gained for Aim Forest

Cnsars because of the promiscuous way

that didn't help him here. The crown
ing misfortune was his failure to be
recognized as ''Mr. Astor," the head of

the finest hotel in the world on the site

Fat Enough.

A Twenty-sixth ward citizen who
was raising fine hog in the rear Of his
residence was notified by the board of
health to remove the animal outside the
city limits. Not wishing to move and
thinking the hog was not fat enough to
kill, he sent word TO a colored man who
had a small farm in Montgomery coun-
ty to take the pig to his place until ii
was fat enough to kill, agreeing to give
one-half of the carcass Tor his trouble.
Sam took the hog home, and the next
morning brought half of it back to the
Manayunker.

you to keep that hog until it was fat. "

the union army, ana at tne peRinnlhk
of Cleveland's first term was appointed
TO position in the service, where his
qualifications as detective were soon
recognized In a short time he was as
signed to take charge of the western
district, having headquarters in Chi
cago. There he remained. The pres
ent admipjstration felt compelled To re-
tain him, as the affairs of the United
States secret service are SO delicate that
the chief of the division must, neces-
sity, be man of experience.
Porter is n cool hand and is well
worthy of promotion. One of the most
important captures of recent years was
effected through his efforts. During
the summer of 1883 counterfeit silver
dollar was circulated throughout the
country and so well was it executed
that the bank tellers and even the ex-
perts of subtreasuries accepted speci-
mems as genuine. Capt. Porter located
the counterfeiting mill in Chicago, ar
rested the manufactures, seized the dies
and outfit and secured the counterfeit
ers conviction. No known effort has
since been made to make similar
counterfeit until recently it was tried
in Utah.
For twenty years the different chiefs
of the United States secret service have
been selected from the ranks. First
James J. Brooks was promoted TO the
chiefship and he was succeeded by John
S. Bell, of Newark, N. j., who had
served an apprenticeship in the New
Jersey district, and he in turn was sue
ceeded in office by the present chief, A.
l.. Drummond, of New York, who was
an agent of the service for years before
his promotion to the head of the d.
vision.
