CHARLES HARPEL- Rhenish. It was
but natural that after the affairs of city,
state and nation were properly settled
they should drop into "reminiscences Of
fishing, hunting and more thrilling ex-
periences, and soon the little group be-
came famous.
In truth a club was really formed be-
fore they knew it. and all they had to
do was to formally organize. Charles
Harpel was by common consent made
the representative of their patron saint,
Baron Jerome Charles Frederick Won
Munchausen. the jovial and brilliant
Hanoverian soldier, whose account Of
his adventures as q cavalry officer in the
Russian army. especially in the cam
paigns of 1879 against the Turks, laid
the foundation for the famous book.
The other officials are Recorder Oscar
Hebel, Financier Michael Burke, COun-
selor Charles B. Obermeyer and Ser
geant-at-Arms Harry B. Hall. All cleo
tons are unanimous, and any number Of
the club is a quorum to do regular bust
ness. Their first appearance rs a club
was at q dance given by them last No
vember. 1t was such q success that it
was repeated this year. Almost every
prominent politician on the North Side
Is a regular or honorary member. and as

MORE BLACKBLRDING.
The Montserrat and Alexander
on Cruise.

on a Cruise.
From a collaboration of various
scraps of information it is probable
that the Spanish American South
Coast line managers will not be able
to include the notorious steamer
Montserrst in their fleet after she
completes her present trip. She
sailed from here on December 3, for
Ocos, Champerico. San Jose de Qua
temsla and other coffee ports, from
which the Grandholm returned re-
recently.
The most important man on board
when she steamed out through the
Golden Gate was Captain ". b. Fer
guson, the master of the Inflated
blackbird brig Tahiti and the head
engineer Of the Montserrat's slave
trading cruise to the Gilbert islands
a few months ago.
Since leaving here she is repor ed
to have changed hands, and the new
owners are the men who had her
chartered for the last expedition.
They made money enough on the
last trip. according to the prices they
were paid for the simple creatures
they decoyed from their island homes,
to purchase half a dozen tramp
steamers like the Montserrat, and
that is what they have done.
Ferguson's presence on board is
easily accounted for by a mem
Der Of the former expedition,
who has been approached within ten
days with proposition to ship for
another trip when the steamer gets
back here and fits out for the raid on
the peaceful homes of the South
Pacific Ferguson's errsnd is to
secure the aid of some OF the inter
prefers and natives who went to the
South Coast plantations as Whippers-
in for another big lot of slaves. The
last cargo was not picked up without
much difficulty, and the natives Fer
guson intends 10 take back are to be
used to spread glowing reports of
the life of the natives in the new
land.
The experience gained on last
summers cruise makes Ferguson q
valuable man for the blackbirding |
crew, and the plan of operation as
outlined above explains his presence
1n the Montserrrat during her pres
snt commercial trip south.
As outlined at present, the cruise
will take in the Samoan and Caroline
groups before the Gilberts are touch
d at. but little is expected from the
