Now England,s Rocky Coast.

The annual report Of s. 1. Kimball,
the general superintendent of the life
saving service, shows that of the 594
marine disasters which occurred dur
ing the year ending June 80, 1894, along
the 10000 miles of seacoast of this
country and along the great lakes, no
happened along the rocky coast of New
England. OF the sixty-eight lives lost
thirty-two went to satisfy the rapacity
of the waves tapping the same New
England coast. Thirty of the thirty
two deaths occurred in the wrecks of
the ship Jasen and the bark Belmont
on Cape Cod.

SOME REMARKABLE PETS.
Weird Yarns OF the Ssgacity of Dumb AMI
mails Told In the NEWSPAPERS.

mails Told In the Newspapers.
A good thing may be carried to ex-
cess, and too earnest and persistent q
dwelling on the Importance of the
minor virtues sometimes has an effect
contrary to that intended. A little girl
who is uniformly kind to animals, and
who has been known to make the tour
OF an extensive neighborhood, much
overloaded with an armful of sacred and
clawlng stray cat, which she declined
to rellnquish until she could do SO in
the assurance that her burden had
found a good home, was heard to ex-
claim the other day with indignant en-
phasis:
"I'm so tired of our dumb animals
and 'sagacious pets and the friends of
man, that I believe I shall pull the
cats tail as soon as 1 get home and tie
tin can to the puppy's!"
She did neither, having sufficiently
relieved her feelings in the outburst,
but 1t is not hard to sympathize with
her. Our pets are doubtless often sa-
gacious and often interesting, but for q
change, says writer in Youths Com
Panion, one would like occasionally to
hear of a noble Newfoundland that
was born idiotic or feeble-minded
kitten that did not know cream from
soapsuds.
The irrepressible "funny man" of the
newspapers, however, is not yet weary
OF animal sagacity. On the contrary,
he has recently furnished some striking
examples which we give below, mere
ly suggesting that if the reader does
not enjoy caricatures he had better pass
them by.
Not long ago, he tells us, q gentle
man in India owned a tame snake of a
harmless kind, of which he was very
fond and which returned his affection.
On one occasion, at the approach of q
dangerous tropical thunderstorm, the
intelligent reptile overheard it's master
expressing his fears, and proved in
stantly equal to the emergency. Wrig-
CLING swiftly to the hearth, it ran up
the chimney and stood on its head at
the top, with its tapering tail elevated
toward the clouds. The lightning rod
thus improvised answered the purpose
perfectly, and the peril was averted.
Again, a gentleman in New York
was the proud possessor of beautiful
and amiable tortoise shell cat, notable
d1lhS 1Or Iellne SOUNDS ana sound
feline sensa. One tempestuous night
her owner, returning late and weary,
could not find n bootjack and was un-
able to get off his heavy, wet boots.
Pussy understood the situation imme-
diately, and running lightly downstairs
slipped out of doors, and mounting the
clothes drier emitted her very best
howl-loud, long drawn, melancholy
and moving. At once shower of boot
jacks rained down from the windows of
irate neighbors, and she had but to Sc
lect the most suitable one and carry it
in her mouth to her masters feet. She
now wears a silver dollar in commem-
Grafton of her sagacity.
The third pet, the funny man de-
clares, belonged in London. He was a
pug dog, who, becoming accidentally
separated from his master and losing
his way in the great metropolis. en-
tered cab which he observed standing
by the curbstone, and refused to leave
it until driven to the address on his
collarl

The Guardian,s Commercial Article.

Manchester, June 12.-The Guardian in its commercial article, says: The ex- pected improvement after the Whitsun- tide holidays has not been realized. The market has been sluggish, but producers are firm in consequence of the steadi- ness oe cotton. Buyers will not raise their limits, and dealers in India are de- termined to resist an advance in prices. Transactions are limited mostly to spe- cialties Many manufacturers are badly in want of orders, but buyers are await ing news of the overdue Monsoon be- fore making purchases. There is some China inquiry, and sales are good in shirtings, sheetings. finished goods and specials, but the mere mention of terms has prevented the acceptance of much business There have been some pur- chases in South America. Yarns are slow but firm.

MILFORD SAVINGS BANK
Suspends as the Result of Injunction
 Bank Examiners.

Suspends as the Result of Injunction by
 Bank Examiners.
 Milford, N. H., June 12.-The Milford Savings bank suspended payment this morning. Bank Commissioners Tyford and Baker on Tuesday afternoon served a court injunction on the Savings bank, restraining the institution from receiv- ing or paying deposits. The order Is made by request of the board of trustees to the bank commissioners. This action was made necessary by the large number of notices of withdrawal of deposits by nonresident time depositors and others who were dissatisfied with the rate of per cent interest These payments could not be made without selling interest," bearing securities at a sacrifice, which would imperil the principal depositors It was deemed better to suspend rather than to lessen the ability of the bank to pay every depostor in full. The de- mands on the bank were heavy during the panic of 1893, and have continued SD since It had steadily improving busi. ness until the closing of the neighborng banks caused many withdrawals, there by forcing the present position, which otherwise would not have occurred
 The bank has deposits of about $o00,- GOO and a guarantee fund of $21 ,C00, and should be able to resume business when the general conditions improve and pay all depositors in ful.

Chicago. June 12.-In the custody of Chief Deputy United States Marshal John A. Logan, and surrounded by a few intimate friends, Eugene V. Debs Was taken on a street car to the Chicago and Northwestern depot at 4:30 o'clock this afternoon and placed on board a train for Woodstock, fifty miles distant, where he will spend the remainder of his six months term of imprisonment.
 Martin J. Elliott, the American Rail- way union director, who was late in ar irving from his home at Mahoning, Pa., accompanied the labor leader to serve the rest of his three months sentence.
 Debs' few hours rest in the federal grand jury room made a different man of him by train time. He was mirthful, and past all inquisitive remarks with a laugh. while adhering half seriously to his original story of sickness.
