souttling Ships.

Scuttling may be defined as the art Of
cutting holes through ships hull, either
for the purpose of keeping her steady, when
stranded, by filling the hole with water,
and thus save the ship and cargo, or to
sink her in order to obtain the money for
which she is insured. 1t is the latter form
Of scuttling that we propose to deal with.
A shipmaster is monarch of all he sur
veys when remote from the land and no
other sail above the boundary line Of sea
and sky. Hence there would be little diff
fculty in his way should he propose to
scuttle his ship, either to injure or to assist
the owners thereof For this reason the
laws against souttling have always been
very severe all over the world. b an act
of congress passed in 1904 it was enacted
that "any person, not being an owner, who
shall on the high seas willfully and cor
ruptly cast away, burn or otherwise de-
stroy any vessel unto which he belongeth,
being the property of any citizen or citi-
zens of the United States, or procure the
same to be done, shall suffer death" Eng
lish laws were similar. The last man
executed in England for ship scuttling
was Cooling. hanged on Deal Beach about
1904 for scuttling a vessel in the Downs In
order to obtain the sum for which she was
insured. Less drastic laws prevail now,
and the gravity of such case is met by
penal servitude and the canceling of GER
tif1cates should the offenders be shipmas-
tiers or officers. chambers Journal

A Terror to Postnen.

There is little green card in use by the
postoffice department that is terror to
careless letter carriers. This card is drop
ped in a letter box. On it is marked the
time when it is put in and when it should
be taken out. A record is kept at the Of
fee, and if that card does not turn up when
due it is clearly to be seen that the carrier
has not taken the mail from one box at
least When there is any complaint on the
part of the citizens about the hardness of
the local mails, the telltale card is drop
ped in one or more boxes in the districts
from which the complaint comes. 1t is,
however, not necessary that there should
be complaints, for frequently the cards are
put in the boxes of efficient men. OF
course they are happy when they discover
them. When box is missed in which
there is a green card, the carrier is bound
to get into trouble, and very serious trou-

Funny little housewives are fashioned
out of a bit of bingham and flannel A
round piece Of cardboard is covered with
the bingham to serve as a base, and the
full skirt is pinned closely around this at
the bottom and gathered around the waist,
which consists of a small stick, at the top
An apron of cardboard is covered with the
gingham, edged with pins and fitted close
ly over the head, while a thimble set on top
gives the semblance of a bell crown. A
fchu of the bingham is crossed over the
stick shoulders, and across the back is fas-
tened an ivory crochet hook, from either
end of which are suspended tape needles
stuck through and upholding two spools
of white cotton. Two small whitfield sticks
come out from under the fchu for arms,
and the whole effect is ridiculously like a
peasant woman carrying her pals Of water
slung across a stick.-Philadelp Times

MUSIC AND DRAMA !.

Professor Carpenter at Portland Theatre
Professor Carpenter is deserving of
much larger audiences than he is having
for his mesmeric exhibition is Of the
highest order. 1t is not only interesting,
but it is exceedingly amusing as we'll.
Last evening he had five young men and
lads for subjects. He convinced one of
them that he was suffering from tooth
ache and another that he was dentist,
and the efforts of the supposed dentist
to draw the tooth. and afterwards to get
his par, caused the audience to shake
with laughter. Then he made the sub
jeetssbelieve their legs were weak and
they tum5led over each other; that he
blew feathers.ontos their noses that they
could not remove: that their coats were
wrong side out; and many other halluci-
nations we haven't space to mention. Go
and see him tonight.

A CAPE WOMAN.
Divorced, Married and Heiress to
$4,000 In Oneig Day.

All This Happened to Mrs. Mary Jordan,
Formerly of Cape Eliza beth in oklaho-
ma Territory-Her Husband is Massa-
chusetts Clergyman.
An interesting story has been going
the rounds to the effect that woman
named Mrs. Mary A. Jordan, in Oklaho-
ma, had been divorced, married again,
and inherited $4,000, all in one week.
The statement is now made that this
much favored woman is native of Cape
Elizabeth, althoug the multiplicity of
the Jordans in that town is so great that
the PRESS is unable to say to what
branchsof the family she is related. The
present husband, to whom Mrs. Jordan
has just been married, in Oklahoma, is
William A. Depew of Boston, a distant
relative of Chauncey M. Depew of New
York.
Mr.. Depew is quite well known in Bos-
ton, and has some influential friends
He was formerly a Congregationalist
minister, and his last charge was the
parish at Concord, Mass, where he re-
manned for three years.
There was much trouble in the church.
the minister and his friends ON the one
side, being opposed to numerous party
on the other. Three or four years ago,
Mr.. Depew's health gave out and he re-
signed. His reputation has always been
unblemished.
He was a canvasser for high class
books, and for while was in business
in large retail store on Washington
street. Boston. His home for a time was
inssMelrose. Then came domestic troubles
which resulted in separation.
Mr.. Depew has two sons, both of whom
are in business in Boston. They are
naturally disturbed over the publicity
which has been given the affair, and are
not disposed to discuss it.
1t seems that Mr.. Depew slipped away
to the West and was married almost be-
fore they knew it. They do not relish
it at all, and speak with great indigna-
ton about the Jordan woman. The
boys do not credit the story of her being
an heiress to SIS, 900, nor anything like
that sum.
The happy couple are journeying east
from Oklahoma.

paid by the American Surety Company
of New York, represented in this city
by William F. Little, 10 Exchange
