"And he didn't gO?"
"No, sab; he said he'd see me in

seventy years after.
His real dangers did not begln-and

THE KATAHDIN A SUCCESS.
Requirements More Than Met, and Under Adverse
Conditions

Requirements More Than Met, and Under Adverse
Conditions,
The Ammen Ram Katahdin had her Off
cial trial over the Long Island Sound course
and made II. 12 knots speed, giving the build
ers a 81. 800 bonus.
Full head of steam was given the ram
when within mile of the Dolphin. off Hor-
toms Point, and she made, it is estimated, a
seventeen knot headway even against a
tide. Head tide impeded her progress both
WAYS. west and east, but this will be taken
into consideration by the naval board.
Over a portion - the course 151 revolu-
tions were given the ram, and at times the
hull was completely submerged. No person
was allowed on deck and all hands were be-
low with matches and dead eyes security
closed. The pilot and wheelsman came in
for their share of wetting in the coming
tower, that department taking in several
waves which the wind and speed both helped
develop.
Geu. Hyde, before his departure for Wash
ingtoH expressed much pleasure at the time
made under the most unfavorable conditions
of storm wind and tide. On the return tc
the first stake boat the weather was so thick
he said, that the pilot could scarcely make
out the stake boats.
The Katahdin is designed exclusively fol

feet wide and draws fifteen feet of water. Il

His Veins Wore Out.

A most peculiar disease was the
cause of the death of a Philadelphian
recently, and one which puzzled many
physicians. 1t is called purpura
hemorrhagia, or hemorrhage of the
veins. When an autopsy was made
it was found that the body was nearly
empty of blood and small holes were
found worn in the veins. The dis
ease is extremely rare.

Slang from a Good Source.

An English paper recently alluded
to the expression dark horse" as a
piece OF American slang. 1T would
probably surprise that editor to know
that Thackeray in "The Adventures
Of Philip" and Beaconsfeld in "The
Young Duke" both used the express
sion, and in each case in precisely the
sense in which it is now employed, to
denote candidate who early in the
race does not appear at all.
