TOWED BY TANDEM OF WALES.
An Exciting Defense of a YOunxster
Its NOfher

Monterey Cor. of the San Francisco Examiner
The town talks blub5er. and is beginning
to smell Of l.. Though it is nearly a week
since Captain Pedro caught his twain Of
whales-cow and calf. he calls them--Mon-
terey has not exhausted the subject From
Del Monte to Pacific Grove one hears of
little else. Captain Pedro knows all about
whales, for he has handled a harpoon for
thirty-one years. And the resumption Of
operations at this point, where he has estab-
l!shed himself in the saloon business as
side line. fills him with the conviction that
Monterey yet has future before her His
recent exploit i'll capturing a pair with one
line he declares, was merely in the way of
practice. and Is only an indication OF what
he hopes to do when the whaling season
opens in the fall.
He had completed his prepare tions, he
explains. and school of hungry hump
backs" happening Into the bay in quest Of
sardines, he took tug at them. But it was
not such an offhand matter by any manner
of means. for. as fact, the COW and her
calf gave Pedro and his crew a mess Of
trouble. and they knew when 1t was all over
that they had been ''a-whaling."
Last Monday school of dozen or more
whales came into the bay, blowing and
spouting at different points The sight
made Pedro ambitious to give his green
crew chance to try their hands. aud he
ordered out one Of the two boats with which
the newly established whaling station is
equipped.
After considerable trouble the captain
rounded up an infant whale-a sea calf.
The momentum of the boat was checked
there was an instant's pause, then a splash
and the harpoon struck home Captain
Pedro anticipated little resistance. The
whale was too young to make much of a
fight, and he felt sure of an easy victory
He failed. however, to figure on the COW
which was lurking near her offspring.
Like hash she was off to the rescue. and
before the skipper could prevent she ha =
entangied her f1ukes in the rome attached
to the harpoon. Straight for the omen ses

THE FIRST CARRIAGE IN MAINE.
How n Minister Came to Buy II an
Why He Sold Il.

How a Minister Came to Buy II and
Why He Sold Ii.
From the Lewiston CIe) Journal.
The Rev. Francis Winter was a native Of
Boston and a graduate Of Harvard College.
He came to Bath early in 1861, and, after
preaching on probation for the Orthodox
Church, was invited to SETTLE which invi-
tation he accepted. He was ordained in
the autumn of the same year. He came to
Bath on horseback, in company with Lem
uel Standish. Mr.. Winter came from Bos-
ton, where he had associated with such
eminent men as Adams. Otis and Warren
himself becoming an ardent patriot. taking
the lead in the revolutionary measures
adopted in Bath during that memorable
period.
Mr. Winter married Miss Abigail Alden
in 176S, and it is through her that the VIM
tiers Of today trace their ancestry back to
the Puritan maiden Of Plymouth"
Three years after the marriage of the
Rev. Francis Winter and Abigail Alden,
they started to visit a sister of Mrs. Win
ter living in Connecticut, and intended to
ride all the way on horseback, but Mrs.
Winter became so fatigued that Mr.. VIM
ter sold one of the horses for a carrla se
and harness. 1t was the first carriage that
ever came into Maine, and was called a
chaise. Travelling so difficult that two
negroes were employed to accompany them
with shovels and axes to clear the road
Several times the chaise had to be taken
apart and lifted over fallen trees. The
minister's parishioners thought that it was
putting on too much style for their pastor
to ride in carriage. and in consequence
Mr.. Winter sold it. This was in Ill. 1t
was two-wheeled chaise the body resting
on leather thorough braces, which were at
tached to wooden springs.

FIRST BICYCLE IN AMERIC.
A BaltimOrean introduced 1t I'm Th,,
Country.


From the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette
1t is fact not generally known that the
first man to introduce a bicycle in this
country was Mr.. Thomas w. Lawford.
who came to this country in 1870 as Brit
ish vice consul. Mr.. Lawford died in Vir-
ginia last year. aged eighty-nine years.
There are many people in Baltimore who
remember Mr.. Lawford. He induced n
firm of wheel manufacturers at Coventry
England. to send an exhibit to this country
for the exposition, and he took charge OF
1t during the centennial. At the close of
the big show he took the exhibit to Balt,-
more and established there the first bicy-
Gle agency in this country. The present
safety wheel was not in use at that time,
The bicycles were of the old wagon-wheel
style.
Mr.. Lawford. notwithstanding his ad-
vanced years. rode tricycle. himself, and
he was the first to run the machines in
this country. His appearance on the street
invariably created a sensation, and he was
always followed by crowds of children,
who greatly admired his performance To
older people Mr.. Lawford was equally a
revelation, and few who saw him then ever
thought tkat the silent steed' would be-
come so popular and useful Mr. Lawford
was usually accompanied by a big setter
dog. Crowds cohgregated whenever he
made his appearance.
