ROUND THE HORN IN WINTER.
Thrilling Experience of e Big China
Trader.
From the Ne,g York Times.

from tae NGlJ YORK tunes.
The narrator Of this yarn is worthy OF a
description. he was a man Of perhaps IS
years old-ths reporter did not inquire his
age-a dark-skinned, sunburned fellow.
whose restless gray eyes seemed to be
always seeking what they could not find. a
suit of rough material and a SLOUGH hat
formed his attire. He had about him that
indescribeble something which ind1oated
that he was deal moro familiar with slop-
ing decks, reef tackles aud yard arms than
with the pavements Of a city.
The man was surveying the antics Of a
tug from a South street pier when q res
porter of the New York Times, who was
passing that way, felt called upon TO inN
quire Of him why the big sailing ship,
which was mOored to an adjacent wharf,
presented such a disheveled appearance alotG
Her main yard WAS absent from its slings,
and nothing whatever Of the mizzen fabric
could be seen.
ibid you ever round the horn in win
ter 2" asked the man senteRtiously, as he
struck a match and caught the flame Of it
in his pipe before the wind could eXtin-
guish it, with the dezterity OF q person
whose principal business in life is to Guido
that element.
Never did, eh! Well, if 1 was to tell
you the reason that vessel looks like she
does sloft was owing to Cape Horn weather
you wouldn't be much the wiser now, would
youl If you have never been round the
horn in winter, then you don't know what
weather isl
Another query from the reporter brought
out the fact that the man was one OF the
officers of the ship referred to. Shei the
big China trader T. N Blanchard. Per-
ceiving that his questioner had some small
knowledge Of antarctic voyaglng, although
he could not boast Of having rounded the
perilous cape the maa, after little further
persuasion, was induced TO give an account
of the trip.
The story is one that reveals the | est
qualities of the seaman, telling, as it does
OF his struggles with and eventual triumph
over an array OF perils and difficulties that
would have dismayed any but that hardy
class Of men who follow the sea for a liv-
ing.
The Blanchard is from Hong Kong, from
which port she sailed on Aug. 81. The
mate said that the voyage up to the time
that the vessel reached the latitude OF 350
south, was like most other Pacific journey
ings-a brisk wind now and then, some
times with weight enough IN it TO necessi-
tate the letting 20 Of the upper halyards,
and then a long, breathless calm. But
nothing out Of the usual occurred until the
tempestous region Of the cape was brought
Gloss behind the hor Eou.
The weather had gradually grown colder
as the vessel pushed her wey toward the
southern ocean, and for several days before
reaching that storm-swept sea thc sky had
a sullen. stormy look, with the sun peering
at intervals from behind a leaden-colored
disk. A middiuR sea was running, over
which the ship slipped along, leaning
sharply at times as the fitful guests swelled
out her broad expanse Of canvas.
One evening, just as the long southern

parties are engaged IN the novel business of
breaking TO pieces with dynamite the
monster steel guns made by the manufact-
urers Of cannon for the government which
after being cast, are found to be imperfect.
The slightest flaw, abrasion or crack in
cannon ls sufficient to cause the inspectors
to condemn them. These discarded guns
cannot be remeted unless they are reduced
to small pieces. The cannon are taken in ali

into them aud then set off with dynamite.

Nearly all the guns are shipped to Mono-
cacy station and BIrdsboro, whence they are
carted e. the place where the dynamitinx is
done. They weigh all the wav from four TO
twenty-five tons. and eighteen to twenty
five horses are frequently required. From
half TO three pounds of dynamite is used
per blast. Some days as high as 200 blasts
are made, and none Of the blasted pieces
must be larger than a cubic foot. After
being reduced to pieces they are sent back

COUNTING ThHIa LINES.
How Much ShakesDeare's Leading
Characters Have to sly.

Characters Have to sly.
From the English Critic
Some tables recently published In Eng
land by L. NJ. Grifiths, giving the number
of lines spoken by each character in Shakes
peare's plays, furnish basis for sundry in
teresting comparisons and contrasts.
The leading male characters have much
more 70 say than their female counterparts.
As might have been guessed, Hamlet is by
far the most loQuacious-using the word in
this srithmetical sense-of the men. His
share in the dialogue is / 500 lines-the lines
in the tables being those of the Globe
edition, and parts Of lines at beginning end
end of speeches being counted as whole
lines. Next to the royal Dane comes Rich
ard Ill, with l.l6l lines, and Iago fol-
lows hard upon with LII. Henry v,
in the magnificent monologue" of a
play named from him, speaks 1858 lines
These four characters are the only ones that
have more than 900 lines apiece. At some
distance behind them comes Othello with
SSS, Coriolanus with 1856, the Duke. In
Measure for Measure, with $50, and Timon
with 1853. Antony. in Antony and Cleo
patra, is tbs only other man with more than
800, his reckoning being 829 Between 500
and 700 we find Lear (770), Richard H. C755),
Brutus, in Julius Cesar an, Falstaff, IN

Menenius 59S) Petruchio $780, Hotspur
$3.50, the King in Hamlet (551), Troilus C54D,

Among the women there are about five
who exceed the limit Of 500 lines | should
have guessed Portia would be first, but her
$50 lines are surpassed by Rosaliuds 749,
Cleopatra's go and Imogen's 596 Juliet

Now word as to that battle. It will

partisans of each side look for. On the con.

although so eminent an authority as john
i. sullivan, who has fought us both, SAYS
that Hm the harder hitter. Other things
being equal, skill, speed and shfUiness, hard
hitting sometimes offsets superior hight and
reach.
Much has been said about Corbett's won-
derful left hand. Like that of Peter Jack
sons, many regard it Hs impenetrable, and
think TINT an adversary will run up against
a stone wall should he try to get past 1t
This is the veriest OF nonsense. No man.

STILL NO CLUE
TO TIE MURDERERS OF SAMUEL ". DORSEY,
on LITTLE WASHINGTON.
Many Women Arrested in This Ciiy-Ths Garrett
Beasls Case Bnded-Ohsr Criminal Mat
ters in and AboH! the City.

The Washington county authorities
worked hard all day yesterday to OBJ
rain some clue to the murderers OF
Samvel W. Dorsey, but up to a late
hour last night nothing definite had
been accomplished.
The very complete account OF the
tragedy published in yesterday morn
ing's REGISTER left little to be told.
Miss Roberts, the young lady who heard
the pistol shot, and who looked cut Of
her window, at No. 1876 East Chestnut
street, directly upon the scene OF the
tragedy, describes one OF the men as
wearing a macintosh coat with a cape,
and quite tall, while the other was
short man. She could not describe his
dress, and could not say whether the
men were white or black. When the girl
made an cutlery the two men fled.
Samuel Tobias saw the two men as
they ran, but does not seem to have
furnished a subscription Of them. Several
additional arrests of suspected persons
have been made at Little Washington,
but none of the parties seem to be i'm
plicated in any manner. Jacks and
Jones, the two men arrested in this city
late Sunday night by Officer Carney,
were released by Chief Of Police Nc
Nichol last evening, as the Washington
authorities showed no disposition to
come down and look at the men. Two
men were also arrested in Pittsourg,
but there seems to be no better case
against them. The Washington County
Commissioners met yesterday and offer
ed a reward OF $500 for the arrest Of the
murdererers. The watch stolen from
Dorsey was a gold hunting case, Walt
ham movement, the case number being
54,294 and the movement number
1923, 500.
All the Washington papers spoke In
terms of the highest praise OF Dorsey,
Yesterday. He was native OF that
town, having been borne there In 1850,
and his father, Hugh Dorsey, lived
there for seventy years. The murdered
man was worth considerable money,
owning real estate and being interested
in manufacturing concerns. He lived
in a handsome residence with his moth
er, and was universally respected. He
carried SIS, ZOO insurance on his life.
The funeral will take place to-day, be-
ing in charge OF the knight Templars.

william Harris, OF Beusire, Let on With
q Fine

The examination Of William Harris,
the Bellaire colored man who shot
George Washington, in that town, Sun
day evening, came of in the Mayors
Court last evening. Harris was only
charged with shooting within the city
limits, and after hearing the evidence
this was changed 10 drunk and disorder,
and he was fined So and costs. Wash
inCton was walking around yesterday,
and will be we'll in few days. Harris
claimed Sunday night, after his arrest,
he had shot in self-deiense, but yester-
dav be said the pistol went of By acct
dent, and no other testimony Of a perth
nent character seems 10 have been
introduced.
Washingtou's wound is remarkable
ona from the fact that the ball came out
OF the sperture in the skin it made in
entering, and vas found in the mans
boot. The attending physician, DR.. I.
NJ. Wells, spent some time in searching
for the ball, but could not find it, He
was convinced that the ball had struck
a rib and was puzzled about its location,
