finally hit upon a plan to induce her to

FATE OF THE sTRATHNEVIs,
Probably Sunk With Nearly Two HUI

Probably Sunk With Nearly Two Hun
dred on Board.
PORT TOWNSEND, Wash, Dec. a.
The fate of the Oriental steamship
Strathnevis and 100 people aboard, still
remains mystery. It has been "a
days since she was last spoken, and was
then about 800 miles west Of Cape
Flattery, under two small leg-of-mut-
ton sails, making her way slowly east
ward. Since then two Of the widest
storms of the season have been ex-
perienced in the North Pacific. The
British flagship Royal Arthur, with her
powerful search lights, covering dis
lance of Is miles on either side, put in
a week cruising along the Northern
coast without discovering any signs of
the lost steamer. The only other
steamer prosecuting the search is the
Danube of Victoria.
May Have Gone on the Alaskan Coast.
The general opinion is that the
Strathnevis has gone on the southeast
coast OF Alaska. In that event the suf-
ferings and fatalities of the sealing
schooner, George R. White, which went
ashore on Wood island, when eleven of
her crew froze to death in the snow,
will undoubtedly be repeated.
The continued absence of the Danube
is the only hope held out for the safety
Of the passengers and crew Of the
Strathnevis. It is argued that if the
vessel has gone ashore of the Alaskan
coast, some word would have been re-
ceived before now. The fuel on board
the Danube must be nearly exhausted.

the cakes come along in rapid Success
sion, and the weight has to be ascertain
ed in the ordinary manner and the re-
suit put down before the next cake gets
along.
From the scale the journey to the YES
sci is uninterrupted. The run is arrang-
ed SO that it extends over the vessel to
the hatchway, and the rise and fall of
the tide are provided for by an arrange
ment that permits of the rising and fall
ing Of the run to correspond
Perhaps the most ingenious thing of
the whole system is that by which the
ice is put in the hold. At the end OF the
run and directly over the hatchway is a
strong frame, and in that there works a
platform that goes up and down some
thing like an elevator at the house. Two
blocks Of ice are slid upon it directly
from the run, and the man who controls
it releases friction lever, and down it
goes into the hold by it's own weight,
the speed being controlled by the man
with the friction lever. The platform is
suspended by four ropes that unwind
from a cylinder as it descends, and at
the same time another and larger rope
that appears from distance winds upon
the cylinder.
When the load is off the platform in
the hold, the friction lever is again
loosened, and the rope that comes over
the side Of the vessel gets in it's work by
turning the drum the other way and
quickly bringing the platform into its
place. Out on the wharf at the other
end Of the big rope is another large
weight, that does the work of pulling
back the platform.
Away down in the hold the work of
slowing the ice was progressing rapidly.
The ice is simply packed together in as
small space as possible, and nothing
is put around it, as many doubtless sup
pose. At the matches, after the cargo is
all in, little hay is thrown, but with
the exception Of that there is nothing
put about the ice to keep it from melt
ing. Under the improved order of pack
ing only from 10 to 10 per cent Of the
ice is melted, and at times not SO much
as that Bangor Commercial.

THE COLISEUM.
Rome's Vast Ellipse and the Many Chang

y sn g. < Is
Romes Vast Ellipse and the Many Chang
ing Moods It Has Seen.
It seems strange that not until the
zaiddle Of last century did it occur to
any Of the successors Of Peter to rescue
from the dissertation of indifference a
spot saturated, one may say without
hyperbole, with the blood Of the mar
tyrs. Everybody knows that earthquake,
fire and inundation competed with
each other for it's destruction. Guis-
cards troopers stalled themselves there,
and the Frangipani transformed it into
a fortress. When less turbulent times
supervened, it became by tacit consent
the common quarry Of the more power
full Roman houses When for time
friendly enough with each other, they
held tilt and tourney within it, and
then mystery plays restored for time
it's theatrical character. Sixtus V had a
scheme for turning it into wooden
mandatory, and another prince of
peace thought cit would serve capitally
as powder magazine. Meanwhile it
remained a convenient market place
for the sale of vegetables. But in 1750
an earnest Ligurian monk, Leonardo da
Porto Maurizio, came to Rome, craved
audience of Benedict XIV, and obtain
ing papal sanction for the new form of
devotion known as the Via Crucis, in
duced the sovereign pontif to consecrate
the Coliseum to celebrate mass there and
to erect large wooden cross in the very
center of the pagan arena.
Ever since the stations Of the cross,
commemorative the journey to Calvary,
have encirclad the vast ellipse, and the
newcomers whose rising voices disturbed
my reverie are wandering hither behind
a tall, barefooted, bareheaded Francis
can friar, to make the dolorous pilgrim
there, and, needless of delicate founce
and furbelow, they kneel on the un-
swept ground at every halt made by the
rosary girdled monk and bow their
heads in audible Lamentations. Then,
when the long, sad service is completed,
he rebukes them for their transgressions
and invites them to holier life. That
much can make out from where I sit,
in sympathetic contemplation Of the
scene, though 40 small part Of his ex-
hortation reaches me, but in fitful vowel
sounds, musical, but somewhat vague in
meaning. Before they have come to a
close blare Of trumpets tells me that a
body of French zouaves is coming along
the Via San Gregorio, between the Pala-
cine and Calian hills, on their way
back to barracks from the exercising
ground that lies beyond the tomb of
Caius Cestus and Shelley's burial place.

HOW ICE rs LOADED.
METHOD OF CONVEYING IT FROM
HOUSE TO SHIPBOARD.

Ingenious Elevators and Runs Employed
by the Large Penobscot River Concerns.
A Great Deal OF Labor Accomplished by
Few Hands.
An interesting operation is the load
ing of ice from the mammoth houses on
the banks of the Penobscot into the
large freight carriers that are almost
constantly going up and down the river
bearing heavy cargoes of frozen Penob-
scot to farof ports.
From the top Of the house the ice
comes down in a most ingenious man
ner. An elevator is rugged outside the
building, and on it the ice comes down
by gravity. There is a counteracting
force in a big weight that goes up when
the load comes down, and vice versa.
To the casual observer it looks as though
the thing worked automatically. Two
large blocks of ice are pushed out upon
the elevator and they descend. AS soon
as they slide off, back goes the elevator
for another load, and this thing is kept
up hour after hour. Careful observation,
however, shows strong wire that leads
off some distance, and at the end of it
sits man, and the secret is out. True
enough, the thing works itself, but it
needs guiding hand SO that it won't
work too fast. The movements Of the
elevator are controlled by a friction
pulley. When the ice reaches the bot
tom and one cake slides off, the eleva-
tor would take run up before the other
came off were it not that the man on
the end of the wire pulls lever and the
friction pulley acts at the top, and the
elevator waits until the cargo is all off.
Then the man releases the pulley and

NEW YORK CANDY PEDDLERS.

Clustered In Dingy East Side Rooms, They
Sleep on the Floor.
Very nearly all the dark skinned men
who sell that brilliantly colored candy
rom push carts are members of regu-
ar clan and for the most part Greeks.
When the day has ended and their work
is done, they gather together in dozen
or more dens in Roosevelt and Cherry
streets just at the foot Of the fam Gus
Cherry hill, there to eat, rest and before
sleeping to load up their carts for the
morrow, that they may get an early
start.
One Of these rendezvous presents
unique appearance late at night. It is
generally store on the ground floor,
that the push carts may be trundled out
easily when heavily loaded. From the
sidewalk the "store" does not show
single ray Of light. It looks forbidding
and deserted. But it's door opens readi-
~. The entire front Of the long apart
ment is filled up with carts laden with
the sweets and displaying signs. Only
a narrow passageway is left to get to
the back Of the room.
Here, around smudgy table, five or
six chattering Greeks are playing cards
and quarreling over the game. On the
boards is spread a quantity Of candy,
newly made and cooling, for it is in a
room back Of this that the stuff is pre-
pared. The candy maker not only makes
a profit selling to the peddlers, but he
gets still more Of their money, lodging
them on the same floor as their push
carts. Sometimes when a peddler is
"broke'' the maker of sweets sends him
out with a load Of candy to sell on
shares, but as a general thing he gets
cash for his product before the carts go
out.
Beds are, for the most part, unknown
luxuries. Only the most prosperous ped
dlers seem to be able to afford them.
Generally the floor is marked out with
chalk lines, divided into narrow squares,
and there on the hard boards, without
disrobing or changing an article of their
clothing, the candy peddlers Sleep
