The Trip Which Casper w. whitney
VIII Make Through North British
America.
Casper w. Whitney, the entertaining writer on
amateur sports for Harpers Weekly, has started
on trip of exploration to the widest part of
British North America. He intends to 20 several
hundred miles north of the Great Slave lake or
farther than any explorer has been, thence east
as far as the shores of Hudson Bay, which he will
follow down to Winnepeg lake. The real object
of Whitney S trip is to study the musk COX, rein
deer. moose and caribou. His only companions
will be the dogs that draw his sleds and two In
dian trappers, who will act as guides. The TEN
perature through the region varies from 30 to 20
degrees below zero, and for hundreds of miles at
a tune there will be no wood to use Tor fires.

Counselor Alfred Clarke is very busy.
On Monday last he filed a suit TO recover
100000 damages from his prosecutors for
malicious arrest and imprisonment Yes

100000 for previous arrest. when Judge

his redress from Warren Olney, number
OF creditors and their attorneys, as also
Sheriff McDade and the deputies who had
him in charge. Altogether there are
twenty defendants to the suit.
After some technical objections to the
order of commitment Clarke complains
that during that long and weary month
of Imprisonment the defendants mall
ci0usly chased this plaintiff into the dlf-
ferent departments of this cour:.and raised
clamOr to remand him to jail" For this

the matter came to crisis.
The Templar seems to ha We become very
unlucky in her old age. She is one of the
early fleet that was built at Medford.
Mass. and entered in the Atlantic Coast
trade.
The Templar seems to have become very
unlucky in her old age. She was built at
Medford. Mass, in 1858, and until 1879
was engaged in the Atlantic trade. In the
latter year she cleared from New York for
this port. She put into Rio JaneirO for
some needed repairs and while there some
of the crew contracted yellow fever. When
the ship was at sea the disease broke out
in virulent form. First one of the crew
died. then another. until all but two of the
foremast hands we're dead. In the mean
time the plague had entered the cabin and
the captains wife fell victim. The cap
tain, too, was stricken down, but after a
long illness he recovered. During all this
time the control of the voyage devolved
upon the first officer and the captains
daughter; the second officer had been one
of the earli est victims of the fever. For
DAYS the young woman and the mate stood
at the wheel alternately, took the sun and
worked out the position of the ship. When
the vessel arrived here and the story of the
voyage was known the underwriters raised
a purse of money for the mate and the
captains daughter and presented the lat
ter with a handsome gold watch. In order
to lend the charm OF romance to the affair
it was thought that the mate should have
fallen in love with the captains daughter,
for he was a manly, noble-loOking fellow
and she was really beautiful girl But
the fates ordained differently. The par
ties went back East and year later came
the announcement of the marriage of the
captains daughter to prominent citizen
of Bath, Me.
The TemDlar was originally ship-rigged,
but was changed to bark some years ago.
More recently the Templar was in seri-
Gus trouble with the Insurance men up
north, and narrowly escaped being con-
demned. At Vancouver the men refused
to work. and the TempIar was delayed
several weeks in consequence.
In every business from the carrying OF
supplies during the war to the transporta-
tion of lumber from Puget Sound the
bark has been engaged since the day
she was launched. She is built of good
tlmbers, and barring a few seams that
occasionally give trouble she is considered
fairly sound.
Captain John Lee was formerly CON-
mander of the bark Richard III. a
Portsmouth built vessel owned at Port
Townsend. The Richard Ill was com
pleted the year after the Templar left
the ways, and, like the latter vessel, is
somewhat of "hoodoo."
While in command of this vessel Cap.
tain Lee had almost similar experience
with former Consul at Callao. The coin.
cidence is considered quite remarkable.
From the latest accounts the chances
seem in favor of the Templar's crew beipe
sent back to San Fra ncisco and the vessel
sold at public auction, as in ntimated.

Bartlett Springs in Lake County
Leads Them All.

At this season, when every one Is casting
about for pleasant place where he may
rest and recuperate, the suggestion of
Bartlett Springs, in Lake County. comes
as timely aud reasonable conclusion of
experience.
AS one of the most charming spots in
California and very easily reached. the re-
sort recommends itself to the men and
women of culture and refinement who de-
sire few weeks change.
Then. again. for those who love sport
there Is hunting and fishing to be found at
this resort, while billiard parlors, bowling
alleys. ys.lawn-tepnis courts. croquet-grounds,
target-raDges, bathing, and last but not
least dancing six times week. furnish an
assured round of enjoyment for the healthy
Of both sexes. 4
The prices at the springs are low, first
class board with rooms being available
from $40 to SIS per week in the hotel or
hotel cottages, with special rates to faml-
lies. Add to this that the mediciCal qualities
OF the Bartlett Springs water are highly
recommended by all physicians. and still
the attractions of the resort are untold.
Under r. H. Warmers management it is
emphatically a place to have good time.

A Lively Tilt at CaIIao Over Ques-

BUT THE CONSUL THOUGHT NOT

Among those who have arrived recently
from South America is First Officer Phil
lips of the bark Templar, that left here
last winter to proceed to the Sound to
load lumber for Callao, Peru. Mr.. Phil
lips brought up good story of tilt be-
tween Captain John Lee. the Templar's
commander. and the United States Consul
at that port.
Captain Lee wrots his version OF the
affair and forwarded it to this city. He
charges that his crew mutinied aud that
the Consul in question, who was recently
appointed by the administration at Wash
lngton, has not treated him in manner
becoming citizen of the United States.
The story, according to Captain Lee, is
that during the last two months of the
