THE GRAND REPUBLIC NOT BURNED.

An tNFOCNDED KUMOR ABOUT The MI In
CURSION STEAMER.
There was a report at Rockaway last night that
the steamer Grand Republic with 800 passengers on
board had caught fire WHEEL off the Inlet and was
being beached. The report proved TO be without
foundation. 1t arose through the burning OF the
LifeSaving Station at Rockaway Point. The details
OF this fire have not been learned yet. The point
where the station is can only be reached by boat as
there is a deep swamp between Rockaway Park and
the point. IL is understood that the dry grass on
the marsh set fire in some way. and the
flames spread and caught the station While the
fire was burning IL threw bright reflection across
the water, and seemed much larger than 1t really
was.
The rumor regarding tho Grand Republic caused
much excitement in the city last night. Mary diner

The old iron clad methods of pun
ishment are happily fast passing
away. There has been a vast change
in public sentiment during the last
century. The rod is spared" these
days by humane parents; so are the
dark closet and other horrors. But,
it may be asked, do the gentle re.
proofs, the chilling looks, the depriva.
tion Of threats, accomplish the much
to be desired results? Are the chill
dren better behaved than Of yore.
There may not be so much outward
fear Of their elders. There may be
less awe and. reverence; fewer out
ward and visible signs of an inward
respect for authority, but surely there
is less inward, cOrroding rebellion.
While children may not love their
parents any more, they are on better
terms with them than formerly The
father who is chummy with his boy,
who gets down 70 that eager, inquir-
ing, restless little soul explains, visits
and encourages, does not need to cut
birch CAD or buy a horse whip in
order to maintain discipline. And
the mother who sympathizes, cuddles
and plays with her children can keer
her slippers on her feet and her hair

holding off Of children is fruitful
source OF disobedience. They need
love, tenderness. and sympathy as
much as flowers need air and sun.

except the excuses for rivers that run
during the rainy season. There is
not even the suggestion of water, and
yet the house is built OF seashells laid
in sort Of cement. Where the
shells were obtained is a mystery
that may never be solved.
1t does not seem possible that the
builder OF the house would carry the
materials over hundreds of miles Of
desert when there were plenty of
rocks near by that would answer the
purpose just as well, even though
they were not so unique. The house
is built in the shape of the straw
huts Of the Papago Indians, and is
about the same size. There is room
inside for five or six persons, but at
present nobody occupies it, ex-
cept, perhaps, some prospector who
uses it for temporary shelter
in cold weather. There are a dozen
varieties Of shells in the walls, and
one over the door is Of extraordinary
size.
The age Of the building will never
be known, but there is little doubt
that it is as old as the eldest in the
Territory.

SHORT ALLOWANCE.
Shrewd Scheme of a Captain to Husband
His Water Supply.

His Water supply.
"Water, water everywhere, nor
any drop to drink" Few people be-
side sailors can appreciate the terri
BILE import of these simple words. A
correspondent of the Youths Com
panion writes that on a short whal-
ing, or, as sailors say, opium pudding
voyage, which he once made in the
brig Arnolda, Of Nantucket, Shulbael
Higgins, MASTER they ran short of
water, and at last the Captain de-
cided to put into Goree, on the west
coast of Africa AS they neared the
Cape de Verde Islands, however, and
got into what are known to sailors as
the horse ATTITUDES, the wind fell
calm, and the vessel drifted idly on
the water.
AS day after day passed with no
signs of wind, Captain Higgins be-
came impatient. The surface of the
ocean was as smooth as a mirror, and
as the long, heavy swells came from
the regions Of the trade winds, the
vessel rolled and tossed about like a
cork upon the water.
We furled the square sails to pre-
vent their being worn out in Slapping
against the mast. The stay sails
were all set and the sheets hauled
taut, which eased her somewhat in
her rolling.
BY this time the water had run so
short that the captain felt obliged to
adopt some plan to avoid all unneces-
sary drinking
Calling me to his side, he said,
''Boy, bring me a new tin dipper
from the slop chest"
did so. Then the captain had all
hands called aft.
'Men," he said, II have always
dreaded to put my rev on short
allowance, but the time has come
when something must be done to save
what little water we have left"
With that he took a piece of spun
yarn from his pocket. and tied it to
the handle of the dippcr. Then
turning to me, he said, Take this
to the masthead and tie it there"
''Now," he said, addressing the
men. you can have all the water
you want to drink, but you must first
go to the top of the mast and get the
dlpper; and after drinking all you
need, you must carry the dipper back
and tie it to the mast again. Under
no conditions will one of you pass the
dipper to another. Every man must
get the .dipper for himself. In case
of sickness, / will send the boy aloft
for the sick man. This rule will ap-
ply to every one on board, myself in
cluded."
At first we regarded the matter AS
a Joke on the captains part, but as
the days wore OH, and each of us
made the trip aloft after the dipper,
the novelty wore off. We soon found,
however, that the captains plan for
saving water was pretty etfectual
one. The ships scuttle butt, which
formerly we had been obliged to re-
plenish from the casks every other
day, would now run week without
retilling.
We were becalmed just sixty days.
Then the trade wind set in, and we
to Goree and retilled our
casks. But the memory Of the trips |
made aloft after that dipper, and |
the spirit in which Captain Higgins
performed his part of the contract, left |
an impression on my mind which re-
mains to this day

Woman has made one step further in
this city toward reaching the level occu-

almost every occupation OF the sterner sex.
She entered the erstwhile charmed pre-
cincts of medicine. law, commerce, jour
nalism, art, mechanics. but the pulpit was
still left sacred to man. Now. however.
in San Francisco ut least, it is so no
longer.
For last evening two pulpits In the Mis-

Because minister of one church was
away from home enjoying well-earned
vacation his wife filed his place. And so
ably did she acauit herself of the onerous
undertaking that large congregation
listened attentively to her discourse for
more than hour.
In such small sphere she naturally ex-
pected criticism of peculiar nature
peculiar in all the word implies, because
it was q woman's first effort in strange

A SALESMAN GONE WRONG.
He Stole Goods Under Pretense of
Selling Them to Customers.

Louis M. Peralta, hayward scion of
one OF tho old Spanish families that settled
in the vicinity of San Francisco in the early
days. Is now in the clutches of the police
and his once grand career is about to take
a sudden downfall. Peralta has for some
time been employed by Taylor. Mason &
20. OF 112 and ia Front street as salesman
and he enjoyed the utmost confidence of
his employers. For four or five weeks past
Peralta reported that he was doing good
trade in Oakland and brought In numor-
GUS orders for paints and oils. The goods
No undertook to deliver himself and would
load up wagon with them at the ware
house and ostensib bly, drive away with the
load to his customers. He failed to make
returns Of any collections and when ques-
TONED gave evasive answers. An investi-
cation proved that the customers were
hcticious and also that the addresses OF the
places of business were vacant lots. He
sold the goods thus obtained to people
who were willing to buy at low prices and
placed the money to his own credit without
Notifying his employers. A charge OF OBJ
tanning goods under false pretenses was
preferred against him.
