the cargo by the depredations of rats,
but If the owner of the cargo thus
damaged a prove that the ship was
not furnished with a cat he a recover
compensation from the owner of the

found under certain circumstances
without a living creature on board is
considered a derelict, and according to
certain conditions is forfeited. 1t has
not unfrequently occurred, after all the
crew have been lost, or the ship other

Sand Storm.

More than once we had nractico,
experience of sandstorms. ON tho

craving about under the Hap-

this new kind OF hailstOrm rather

rather prided myself on my success in
%re-erccting my house unaided. The
other tents held, and their o%ccupants
did not know of my mishan, but
every otheriupright thing was cast
down, and a number of loose proper.

Quickness of Smell i'm Horses,

Sacrificed to the Sea.

A custom connected with ancient
sea worship had been popular among
the inhabitants OF Lewis, but had
been suppressed by the Protestant
clergy on account Of its pagan char
acter. This was an annual sacrifice
at HallOwtide to Il sea god called
Shony. Martin gives the following
account Of the ceremony.
1.-THE inhabitants round the island
came to the church of It. Mulvay,
having each man mis- provision with
him; every family furnished a peck of
malt, and this was brewed into ale;
one of their number was picked out
TO wade into the sea up to the mid
die, and, carrying a cup of ale in his
hand, standing still in that posture,
cried out in a loud voice, saying;
'Shony, l give you this cup of ale,
hoping that you'll be so kind as to
send US plenty of seaware for enrich
ing our ground the ensuing year, Rand
so threw the cup into the sea. This
was performed in the night time

1.-THE Star Spangled Banner

My father was in the war Of 1912, "
sa'd a gentleman recently, and many
a story he ha told me of his war ex-
~periences. One evening he said to me:
We all love to hear the Star Spangled
Banner, but l can tell you the very
first tin 9 it was aver sung. Our divis-
ion YVES camping on the side of a hill.
One night one of our mess aid: Have
you head Francis Keys poem?" 1t
was a rude copy, and he real it aloud
tnce. twice, thrice, until the entire
division seemed electrified by its pa
thetic e'oIuence. Suddenly an idea
seized one of the men. Hunting up an
old book Of flute music, he whistled
snatches of tunes first one and then
another, until, witA'a leap and a shout,
he exclaimed: Boys, I've hit it," and
fitting the tune to the words there
rang out for the first time the Star
%Spangled Banner. The men shouted
and clapped. 1t was caught up in the
camps and sung around the bivoua9
fires, and when peace was declared it
was carried to thousands of tiresides
as the mo t precious relic e the war
of 1SIo;n. a.

For Business or for PleasureY

The Vanderbilt family is going to
hold a reunion at Newport this sum-
mer and the denizens of Wall street
are greatly troubled to know whether
or not there is business in the gather
ing or if it is simply to be in the line
of sentiment and pleasure. There is
reason for wonderment in this direc-
ticn. for the wealth represented will
be enormous. and, being in n lump.
so far as railroad properties are con
cerned, the gathering might be for the
purpose Of uniting upon some plan Of
RAILROAD action. If this were done
there could not fail to be important
develop ments in tho entire railroad
world.

More Than His Share.

In the summer of 1864, says a
writer in the Southern BlvOuac, sew
eral wounded officers and two or three
privates were going up the valley OF
Virginia. A rain came on, and all
hands took shelter for the night in
a schoOl-hOuse.
1t happened that in the course of
the night a skunk found its way I'M
der the floor. and by and by an
nouEced its presence after its we'll
known effective manner.
The officers all walked up. but be-
ing gentlemen and each supposlng
that the others were still asleep, they
kept silent. At last n OF the pri-
Yates, a German, could restrain him
self no longer.
"My! my" he exclaimed. "Dish
ish too bad. Dey shleeps, und l
wakes, und l ish got to shmell 1T

That broke the charm, and officers
and privates burst into peals or
laughter.
