On ordinary freight we have been paying S15

over an almost dead-level road. over which a
4oo-ton train can be run for the whole 207
miles for not over $50.

MOON BLINDNESS.
The Unhappy Experience of Skip
per on the High Seas.

Because Captain Bray was mOOnstruck and
made totally blind the logwood-laden schooner
Netie Langdon, from Falmouth, Jamaica, for
Philadelphia, has Deen compelled 10 put into
Key West In distress, where she still remains.
The Langdon drlfted about in helpless con-
dltion for days after Captain Bray's sad plight,
and 1nally dTfted toward the Florida coast,
where pilOI-bOat was sighted. aud Pilot James
Sinclair was taken on board, and lie navlgated
the vessel TO Key West.
HE unfortunate Skipper'S loss of eyeSight is
believed TO have been caused by the reckless
manner in which he spent his nights. Instead
OF sleeping in the cabin he invariably slept on
deck Ia the moonlight. The rays OF the moon
totally destroyed the sight. In the tropics TINS
occurrence is not rare, but IL Is seldom heard of
SO far north as the latitude of Jamaica. In
Demerara many cases occur especially when
The moon Is IN It's strongest phase.
AS II this was not enough trouble for the
blinded skipper, Pilot Sinclair brought claim
for salvage against the vessel for extraOrdi-
nary services. Captain Bray was compelled TO
Day $3.50 before the vessel was able TO clear
Philadelphia Record.
