tempted to cross the river from Ferry Bar
to Meters Pavilion, in Anne Arundel

water very rough, and when about half
way across the boat began to fill. The men
became frightened, and in moment the
frail craft went over, leaving the pleasure
seekers struggling in the water. A num-
ber of rowboats went to the rescue, but be-

men named had gone down for the last
time. Their companions were rescued
with difficulty, and taken to their homes.
None of the bodies have been recovered.

The Green Emigrant.

The attaches of the Broad Street station, in tho daily handling of thousands of pas sengers, have some curious experiences, but it remained for yonng man of the Emerald Isle to break all previous records in that direction. This young man was one of several hundred immigrants who arrived at this port on Wednesday on the Indiana of the American line. His desti- nation was New York, and his first real American experience was received when he reached the Broad Street station He got through the gate all right and then pro ceeded toward the New York train. As he passed alongside of the train he encoun- tered Assistant Station Master J L. John son.
 Approaching him, the young man in- quired if that was the New York train, and being answered in the affirmative ad- yancdd toward the step leading to tho car platform There he stood gazing for awhile at the car, making no effort to board it, and finally turned to Johnson again with the query whether the train would soon start Again he was answered in the affirmative and told to get on board. Walking leisurely up to one of the open windows of the car he hurled his gripsack in through the window and then proceeded to follow after it through the same open ing, when Johnson caught him, led him to the front of the car and initiated him into the mysteries of entering an Amer ican railway coach.

Tine apples had routed, and were in that state of fermentation that makes them most intoxicating feast for cattle.
 Until the next morning the beasts glut- ted themselves, and they were found ill a condition of inebriety that caused them to conduct themselves with boisterous hilar- ity. They were rounded up and corralled with much difficulty by score of cattle men.

Frank Gilhooley, journeyman hatter pf Orange, N. J., got heavily charged with Jersey lightning the other afternoon and nothing would do but he must fight loco-
 motives on the Delaware, Lackawanna nnd Western railroad. Gilhooley said Cor bett and Fitzsimnons were too easy for him. He wanted something more danger bus, so selected the Orange drill engine Gilhooley laid plans to tackle the engine bear the Hickory street crossing. Ho stood In the middle of the track, rolled up his Sleeves, and shouted for the engine to tome on. Employees in the nearby fac tories saw the mad natter and went to his fescue and dragged him gut of the way.
 When the engine whizzed by, Gilhooley Shouted; You better sneak You were Rfraid to stand your ground.
 Gilhooley was finally persuaded to go home and not bother railroad locomotives,
 because they did not care to have trouble eNith him. The crowd admitted that Git fooley was the better man, and he left the fcene in n satisfied frame of mind.-New York Sun.

Building by the American Board te Re-
 place the F.. w. Logan.
 A new schooner is building by the American board of commissioners for for eign missions for the use of missionaries on the island of Ruk, in the Micronesian group in the South Pacific ocean. This new vessel will take the place and name of the R. W. Logan, | missionary craft of the same character which was lost two years ago on a voyage to Ruk from Yokohama, whither she had gone for repairs. Her captain and crew went down with her, probably in one of the fierce storms which now and then sweep the southern ocean.
 It is expected that the new schooner, at present building in San Francisco, will be launched in the carly part of October She will be commanded by Captain Isaiah Bray, for many years commander of the Morning Star, the fourth vessel of that name to be built with money provided by the children of the Sunday schools of the Congregational church in the United States. The K. W. Logan will be of about 50 tons burden, it's work being supplement tary to that of the larger vessel, tho Morn ing Star in transporting the missionaries to and from the islands in the archipelago Its cost will be about So, GOO, which has been provided almost entirely by the in surance money obtained after the loss of the former schooner. r.-New York Sun.

Robbers Aided by q Horse.

@When l was in Nebraska, near the Snake river, north of the Great Sand hill, in 1s59,'' said a Lewiston citizen, i've had four camps, situated about IS miles apart and to go from Thorne's camp to Dunham camp it was necessary to go through long piece of pine woods For q number of months every one who had gone through the woods alone neyer came back. One day it was necessary that I should go through with a lot of money and no escort, and 1 set out on horse that 1 got from stable keeper near Thorne's camp.
 s'When 1 had nearly reached the woods, five miles out, my horse was taken i'll and refused to go on. Clearly to my medical eye it had been poisoned slightly by some one. Soon what looked like u hunter came along on q horse and offered to swap, talk ing inine back to the stable if I would leave his near Dunham camp with a trap per. 1 ought to have seen through this, but did not. got on the powerful horse of the stranger and started through the five miles of woods. Half way through, without any apparent reason. the horse broke into a trot, a gallop and finally run, and flashing off the trail through the woods picked his way among trees as nice ly as if he had gone that way q hundred times. Pull as I would at the bridle, he paid no attention, but ran the faster. When he had leaped brook and landed on the sand beyond, the marks of footprints alarmed me- and I slipped off at the risk of my life. He ran on up 6 ravine, and hid, fearing that it was a trap, as it after ward proved. In u little while three men armed with rifles came back on the trail, one riding the horse now as calm as a lamb picked my way to the road and got out to the camp.
 1.-Two weeks later 19 of us followed man who hired horse at the same place 1 did. It was taken ill., and the same trap per came along on the same horse. When the horse dashed into the woods, as he had been trained to do 19 of us dashed after him and finally arrived at mountain camp of the robbers We took every man, seven of them, and-well, law was not we'll supported out there then, and no court sat nearer than 200 miles We didn't carry the rascals away from their own campfire. The trained horse met the fate of it's owners ''-Lewiston Journal.

There is considerable talk again in the Michigan peninsula about the proposed canal to connect the southeast end of Lake Michigan with the west end of Lake Erie that is, to connect Chicago and Toledo and thus save the several days of transit through the length of Lake Michigan and Lake Huron. It is said Chicago capitalists have recently been making investigations in connection with. the scheme. The un- dertaking is spoken of as the "Transm1ch- igan Ocean Ship canal. .

TALES Ot' THE TIMES.
A Kansas Statesman and His Love of
 SIeap.


 Last evening people passing s. Bar nums store, on the west side of Kansas avenue noticed a large man sleeping soundly in large covered spring wagon near the street curb. He was stretched across the seat, and while his position was not a comfortable one the man did not care. His broad chest rose and fell at reg ular periods, which indicated deep slu1n- Der. Occasionally a whirring noise like the suppressed grunt of pig escaped the sleeper. It was snore, but not the ceil- ing destroying kind.
 A close inspection would have revealed the chubby face of man well advanced in years. His cheeks were covered with thick growth of short gray hair and his head with an old slouch hat. Then the observer would have been startled to find strong resemblance to man who was well known in public life in Kansas not long ago. The man looked like ex- Con- gressman Ben Clover, and in truth it was be-
 x-Congressman Clover now drives the reform school wagon and may be seen on the streets of Topeka every day. He got the place as reward for political services rendered in the last campaign. He doesn't know anything about training boys, but Governor Morrills business adlninistra- tion gave him a job.
 When MT. Clover was in congress, he contracted the sleeping habit and it made him famous. When an important measure was being considered, he was wont to steal out into the anteroom and stretch his portly form on the luxurious cushions of 0 government sofa, and while his colleagues wrestled with some intricate question af- fecting their constituency Congressman Clover of kansas slept, and, it is said snored, not softly or gently, but loud enough to be heard in the adjoining legis- latiye hall.
 Then Mr Cloyer's constituency got angry and elected some one else, and since then he has been compelled to take his maps in less convenient places. Other peo- pie have contracted habits in congress but it remained for Congressman Clover to make a departure and become, liko Dickens fat boy, confirmed sleeper.- Topeka State Journal.
