AN ENBEZZLER CAPTURED
HOun9 PauI Hume Arrested at
Brisbane For Embezzlfne
Funds of Wells, Far
90 DE- Co

Captain Christian received let
ter by the steamer Warrimoo yes
terday from a friend in Melbourne,
dated August 18th. The letter
contained a full account of the ar
rest-at- Brisbane of a young man
named Paul Hume, who embezzled
the sum of $4,000 from the office of
Wells, Fargo & Co., at Sacramento,
Cal, some time ago. Hume spent
some time in this city and left by
the steamer Warrimoo foz Brisbane
on July 2lst. During his stay here
he went by the name of George
Grotdfrepds, and so signed himself
when he took passage by the War
rimoo. When the young man was
arrested at Brisbane the sum of
$2540 was found on his person, the
amount being in 127 twenty-dollar
gold pieces. Detective Tucker, who
spent some time here in search of
Hume, received word by the last
Monowai that his man had been
arrested at Brisbane, and he left
by that vessel to bring him back to
California. Hume is described as
a rather prepossessing young man
and during his short stay in this
port spent money at rather a rapid
rate. Detective Tucker is expected
to pass through here with his
prisoner on the next steamer from
| the Colonies.

Hen Pheasant Shooting.

A committee has been appoiated
by the Sportsmen's Association to
make enquiry regarding the breed
ing and living of hen pheasants.
Communications have been sent to
persons in the States of Washing
ton and Oregon touching the mat
ter. AS soon as replies are re-
cieved from these the association
will call meeting to discuss the
reports and to decide upon what
legislation they will ask the gov
ernment to make in the existing
game laws. Under the present
game laws the shooting of hen
pheasants is prohibited, and the
association intends seeing that the
law is rigidly enforced in this res
pect as we'll as in all others relat-
ing to the slaughter of game.

BOATING THROUGH SOLID
ICE.
The Ice Crushing Steamboats,
That Cross the Straits of
haoEfuae

Mackinac.
The most wonderful ice-crushing
steamboat in the world is built to
carry trains of cars across the
Straits of Mackinac, from Macki-
nav City to st. Ignace, Mich, in
connection with the Duluth, South
Shore and Atlantic railroad, along
the southern shores Of Lake Super
ior. In these straits the ice in
winter is prodigiously thick, and
when there is not a solid bridge Of
clear blue ice over the water there
is apt to be wedge of drift ice.
The ferry-boats that carry the
heavy trains across this piece of
water are obliged to be powerful
ice fighters, and they are built in
peculiar way to do their fighting.
Their bows, which are as solid and
strong as naval ram, are built to
slope inward and downward, so the
boats climb up on the ice and beat
or crush it down. The enormous
weight of the newest boat, the Ste.
Marie, which is 100000 pounds,
will crush any ice which it rests
upon. Under the bow is a pro-
peller screw, which not only pulls
the boat ahead, but sucks the
water out from beneath the ice in
order that the ice may be the
more easily broken. Then again,
the screw sucks the broken ice
away and casts it behind as the
boat pushes its way along.
This new boat cost more than a
third of million of dollars. She
can carry eighteen loaded cars on
her three tracks, and can make
fifteen miles an hour. Her side
planks are six inches thick, and
the sides of the vessel are nearly
three feet thick toward the bottom OF
the hull. She is all coated with
quarterback steel except at the
bow and stern, where the steel
plates are two inches thick. The
two ends of the boat are almost
solid timber to make a battering
ram of her. Her bow screw il
smaller than that in the stern, but
with both at work she can make
eight miles an hour through solic
blue ice two feet thick, and wher
she encounters soft or drift ic'
ten feet thick her forward screw
will bore through it and hurl i
out of the way without it greatly
impeding her progressively

the children should be educated in Eng
land and this fact may explain the fail
ure, Of Mrs. Satoria to yield to the
urgent entreaties of her friends to return
to this country TO live.
Nellie Grant was her fathers favorite
and it is not at all unlikely that her sad
experience in addition to his other trou.
bles contributed materially to the
fastening Of mis- death. Her case is but
another illustration of the chances which
American girls take in accepting Eng
lish gentlemen for husbands. Mr.. Sar-
toris was no adventurer, belonging to an
old and highly respected family, and
President Grant was justified in looking
forward to a happy future for his daugh-
ter, English ways are not our ways,
however. The Englishman is not accus
toned to regard woman as does the
American and treat her as an equal, and
herein we think lies the secret of so
many unhappy marriages between
American women and English men, as
well as other foreigners. The American
girl is accustomed to receiving the most
gentlemanly and considerate attention
as rule, and the English domineering
spirit is not likely to be any more ac-
ceptable in the domestic circle than it is
In the family of nations.

A GREAT CALAMITY.

DOVER, N. r., Feb. 9th.-The county
insane asylum, four miles from here was
burned tonight and fOrty-four lives were
lost. At 10 o'clock when watchman
William Chevy made trip into the in
sane asylum he found fire coming out of
the cell occupied by A. la Eamitain, a
woman. Chevy at once gave the alarm.
William Driscoll, the keeper, with his
family, lived in the building and he at
once broke the locks off the fifty-four
cells and tried to get the inmates out
He then got out his wife and two chill
dren, none of whom were dressed. OF
the forty eight inmates only four got out.
They were William Twombly, Rose San
derSon, William DAILY and Frank DON
shon. The latter, clothed only shirt,
walked two miles in a binding snow
storm to William HOrne's house, where
he was taken care of.
The building was 135x96 feet, two
story wooden structure, with big yard
on each side. was built twenty years ago
and had tifty-four cells. One woman es-
capped to the yard, but was burned to
death there. The building cost Sl5,00
The main building, in which were over
100 of the county poor, caught fire, but
was saved by the vigorous efforts of the
inmates, Who carried pals of water and
eXtinguished the flames, although many
were burned in so doing. The Dover
fire department was summoned, but
owing to the distance and the binding
storm, could do but little.
The smoking ruins show the charred
bodies still lying on their iron beds.
How the building caught is mystery.

Yermonr Militnrx Post.

The military post located between Es-
sex Junction and Winooski by recent
act of Congress will be equipped with
four companies of cavalry, consisting of
250 men and horses, with 10 officers
Taking all these with the families of the
officers and men, who will reside there,
the region around Winooski will be a
busy place. There will be quarters for
officers and men, drill hall, chapel, ETC.,
all of brick or stone, rifle range, parade
grounds and other improvements, the
construction of which will call small
army OF men into q tion.
The advantages insured by this loca-
ton are many. From military point of
view none better could be secured. 1t is
but short distance to Essex junction,
the great railroad distributing point for
the whole section, making it the key to
the situation, should occasion ever arise
for active service. Again, while too far
from the Canadian border TO render de-
struction an easy performance, it is yet
so near that any invasion would be
obliged to proceed with extreme caution
to penetrate any great distance into the
United States without meeting with
strong resistance.
Then. while in the midst of the charm
ing scenery of the Green Mountains, the
grounds themselves are on a long, even
stretch. A magnificent parade ground
level as Aoor, and an ample rifle range
can be laid out.
From business point of view this is
also an advantageous location. Ease of
transportation is assured by the prox-
unity of Essex junction on one hand and
the Lake Champlaiu steamers on the
Nt hp a. 80 IN,
Vermont, is less than an hours drive.
A large electric light and power plant,
ru1 by constant and ample sJream is
near by, and the mountains are full of
living springs of the purest water.
Should a military necessity arise, the
ease with which troops might be handled
and distributed will demonstrate to the
fullest measure the fitness of the govern
meuts choice of this location.
The establishment of the post was
aided materially by the enterprise aud
generosity of Col. W. Seward Webb, of
Shelburne, whose famous thoroughbred
horses from Sheiburne farms are known
all over the land
Col. Webb secured the option upon
these grounds and offered TO purchase
and present them if the post should be
located there.
The citizens of The vicinity at once
came to the front and the whole $4,000
necessary has been subscribed, and the
grounds have been surveyed.
II. V. Horton, Town Clerk of COlches-
ter, has done some work which is worthy
OF mention in collecting the titles of the
lands for the year 1895, when Ira Allen
obtained the tract from Gov. Benning
Wentworth, of New Hampshire. Itthen
comprised 1900 acres in Colchester,
about five miles on the Onion river and
eight miles on Lake Champlain.-Argus
and Patriot.
