Clark E. X Royce. an attorney. was
taken from the, Burlington Hotel. COS Mar
ket street, last night in the Central police
station patrol wagon, with an injured head
and conveyed to his home at 1924 Pacific
street.
The officers in charge of the wagon all
pretend ignorance, while the landlady Of
the house would say nothing beyond the
fact that the man had been there for three
days, but that she did not know his nane.
She claimed the man came in the place
yesterday afternoon some time near 4
o'clock, but how he got to his room no one
appears 10 know.
He sent word TO the clerk that he desired
doctor, and when the clerk went TO his
room he found the man bleeding in the
head and partially paralyZed in the lower
limbs.
Word was sent to DR.. o. V. Thaver, who
was friend Of the injuI ed man. Upon the
doctors arrival the patrol wagon was
called and the man conveyed to his home.
Just how Mr. Royce received his injuries
no one appears to know, but many rumors
were in circulation regarding attempted
suicide, assault and accident. Royce IN
formed the police that he had received the
injuries from fall On Market street and
reached his room unassisted. This theory
is believed by the police.

AN AGENTS TRIAL.

Twice Arrested for Embezzling From
the Occidental Watch Company.
The trials OF the Occidental Watch Com
pany are coming on apace. The versatile
Kicks, preacher, horse racer, pedestrian and
bgamist Is in Jail for getting away with
$500 worth of tie company's property and
another agent was arrested last night.
His name is Virgil j. Cronk. and he too
is charged with embezzlement. Some time
ago CroDk, who was then employed by the
company as solicitor, was arrested and fined
$50 tor absorbing some of the company's
property. Cronk thought that when he had
paid this fiue his relation with the company
were at an END and he secured employment
with rival concern.
de was doing well, and was surprised ana
pained when the Occidental placed another
charge Of embeZzement against him last
night. This time the amount OF his peeula-
tion Is set at 500. The prisoner says that it
is all spite work, and declares that lie is in
no way indebted to the company.
The OccidentaPs attack upon him, he
says. Is due TO the fact that when he left
the firm he turned over his patrons to his
new employer.

BOBBING FOR, SEALS.
Pop Deyer's Unique Fishery-Maine
Caribou Migrating to Nova Scotia.
NaNv Nnr Grr,


'The most curious seal fishery in the world
is off the coast of Maine," said Captain Joe
Seabrook of the fishing smack Benny G.
1T doesn't do very big business, but it
keeps its owner and sole operator in all the
necessities of life, including rum and to-
bacco. Old Pop Deyer owns that fishery.
He lives on a little island not far from
Seyen-hundred-acre Island. good many
seals sport and forage around there, and the
way Old Pop captures them is this: He
takes strong poles ten or twelve feet long,
and ties to each pole dozen or so of Goldfish
hooks with lanyards six feet long. He bats
the hooks with herring. He anchors and
buoys this queer fishing tackle so that the
baited hooks lie just below the surface of
the water. The seals come along and gobble
the herring, and take in the hook at the
same time. They can't get away, and Old
Pop rows among them, taps them on the
head with club and tows them to the
island, where he skins them and tries out
the oil. lie finds ready market right iE
Bangor for his hides and oil. and asks no
odds of any body"

WHEN coRDAeE WENT DOWN.

Graphic Picture of Thrilling Scene on the
New York Stock Exchange.
"No wonder th.se men die early and
suddenly"
Tho remark came from the lips Of O
gentleman standing by my side in the
gallery of the Stock Exchange ON the
memorable day when Cordage dragged.
down men and market.
"True enough" replied his companion
as he turned away with a sigh, 81
wouldn't go through that strain again for
q millionw
The roar of 200 voices welled up from
the turbulent mass of mon below. Lean
ing over tho rail, saw men struggling
and fighting and gesticulating and shout
ing and wildly rushing to and fro.
Flushed and white faces, arms extended
toward heaven as if in despair-fsts
clinched in mprecation-hands clasped
in entreaty. Not singly, but in scores,
and in dozen places at once. Strong
men rushed upon these groups and bore
down the weak, and all caught at each
others throats as if they would tear
money from their vitals.
Dante must have witnessed such q
scene as this when he drew his immortal
picture of hell It was as if we peered
into seething lake of fire and brim-
stone and witnessed the torment and
heard the wall of the damned l turned
from the sight with feeling of faint
ness and disgust These were but hui
man wolves rending each other for gold.
And l saw around me other men and
women packed four deep in the great
gallery. In the faces of many Of these
was the reflected anguish of some OF
those below. They clung to the rail for
hours, and some had eyes bloodshot with
weeping and watching and encircled
with dark rings of sleepless nights.
There were young men of fashion whose
fortunes were involved and who stared
honest work in the face as if it were dis
graceful death. Tenderly nurtured wo-
men, daughters and wives and mothers,
whispered excitedly in each others ears
or looked down upon the scene with
drawn faces that indicated the terrible
suspense.
One bejeweled woman, who had the
appearance of one who had just como
from some aristocratic function, sat in a
chair in the otherwise empty boardroom
in state of collapse. No one paid any
attention to her, and as I passed l saw
her press her hot eyeballs with her be-
diamonded hand. And there were men
here with lowering brows and revengeful
looks and murder in their hearts. Some
cursed the names of those who had in
volved them in ruin, but silent were
those who were most to be pitied. These
were the victims of speculation.
And many of those who thus suffered
in body and mind were really uninjured
by the slump in the market. But at that
moment many believed this was only the
beginning Of the end-the forerunner of
q grand panic. No man knew where it
would end. When cold blooded operators
ON the floor lose their heads, how can i.
be expected that investors in the galleries
could remain unconcerned? And so it
came to pass that in the dread uncer-
tainty Of the hour hundreds suffered the
pangs of financial ruin who eventually
found that they were uninjured.-Cor.
