the total wreck in typhoon of the British

with loss Of twenty lives.
The Florence Treat, Captain Poulsen,
was bark Of 724 tons register. built at
Brewer, United States in 1865. and was on
voyage from Singapore to Shanghai with
q cargo OF timber. IL appears that the
vessel had got as far north as the Lam
moeks when she was oyertaken By the
typhoon and driven pack To Breaker
Point, where she struck the Flat Rocks
and went TO pieces within few minutes.
all on board were drowned, with the
exception OF a young son Of the capita ms,
Damed Daniel. u Malay and Chinese,
who were swept ashore. Those who lost
their lives were the captain. his wife and
four children. the mate, and ten Malay and
three Chinese sailors.
The three survivors walked overland to
Swat0w, and on the way the poor little
lad passed the body of his mother. which
had been washed ashore on the beach.

Breaker Point for anything to be seen,
and as the barometer was low and the
weather threatening in appearance, il

There are some people who know it all

knowledge.
One of this species stood near the bow Of
a ChamplaiD steamer one day. He had
remarkably sunnurned mpiexon, he car

road timetables and map in the other,

st Golden Gate there was really exclt-

progress of the game when the issue WAS
very seriously in doubt. The scores were ::

The San Francscos went in first and
sent Webster and Warren to the wickets.
a good stand was made from the start,
and Webster made 10 before he got in
front Of one of Aus0n's "lobs." Warren
rlayed good round cricket and ratified up
81. when he stepped out rashly to Anson,
and Guild, a much improved wicket
keeper, snapped him before he had time
TO get back. Tne mighty Robertson only
made 4, when, to his disgust, he was
smartly taken in the slips. Nixon made a
stand at the finish, but the inning closed
for 116, not such formidable total as
might have been expected.
Had only Heartfelt and Arson got to-
gether, IL is difficult to say what might
have been the result of the match. But,
unfortunately. Anson couldn't find his
pads, and declining 10 go in without
them, he did not take his stand at the
wieke.s until second wicket down.
Heartfelt was clean bowled IN the frat
through an injudicious essay to drive
Il hot one from Robertson. Wickets fell
