DAUNTLEss A PRISONER.
The Cruiser Raleigh Captures Her
on New smyrna.

Jacksonville Fla, Oct. A.-The famous
clustering steamer Dauntless and her
tender, the side-wheel steamer r. l.. Nab
ry, were captured early this morning Off
New Smyrna bar by the steam cruiser
Raleigh. The Raleigh spied the Dauntless
coming up from the south an hour before
sunrise. The tug turned about and ran,
but the swift cruiser soon overhauled and
took her in tow. The Dauntless at the
time was making for New Smyrna to meet
the Mabry for coal and supplies. After
being coaled the Dauntless intended to
proceed south to the Cuban storehouse."
somewhere among the keys in the lower
portion of the state to take on arms and
men for a third expedition.
A special from New Smyrna gives a
graphic account of the chase Of the Mabry.
1t reads as follows: THE firing of guns
out at sea awoke the town this morning
and caused the impression that there was
a vessel in distress off Mosquito Inlet In
a short while it was learned that the
steamer R. l.. Mabry of Jacksonville was
entering the inlet under fun head of
steam and that the United States war
ship Raleigh was standing as close in
shore as possible with tug supposed to
be the Dauntless in tow, and with smoke
from her heavy guns still lowering over
her.
The Mabry arrived here Tuesday af-
ternoon and left this morning at daylight.
She was heading out to sea when the
big man-of-war, with a tug in tow, bore
down on her and signalled for her to stop.
Before the Mabry could obey, a gun was
fired, but evidently a blank cartridge was
used. AS the little side wheel steamer
did not come about as quickly as those
on the warship thought she should,
another gun was fired and
a solid shot flew across her bows and
struck the water a short distance away,
throwing the spray higher than the decks
of the steamer. This hint was sufficient
and the Mabry turned and headed for the
inlet. The Raleigh followed and anchored
off the bar about three miles at sea and
sent in a boat with an officer. who was
placed in charge of the steamer. The Ma
bry took on a quantity of coal while here
and it is supposed she was going out to
put the coal on the Dauntless, which was
evidently coming up the coast to meet her
when she was captured by the Raleigh
and taken in tow. The Raleigh then pro-
ceeded northward with the Dauntess and
arrived off the st. Johns river bar to-
night and tomorrow will turn her prize
over to the custody of the revenue cutter
Morrill,.
The Dauntess had no arms or ammuni-
tion aboard, and it may prove difficult to
prove her guilty of filibustering intentions

Queen Victoria's Real Estate.

49,
The announcement that Queen Victoria
is to leave, by will, Osborne House to one
daughter, the lease of Abergeldie House
to another, and Balmoral, the royal resi-
dence in the Highlands, to the Duke of
Connaught, recalls the fact that the man
who would devour this particular widow
houses must make an uncommonly full
meal 1t was discovered few years since
that the Queen owned 600 houses in vari-
Gus parts of England, not royal residences,
but rent-yielding property, and that about
six thousand houses had been built by
crown lessees ON building leaseholds held of
the Queen She then had also rents from
markets and tolls from ferries, besides the
proceeds of mines and other works upon
her property or the crown property. She
had large estates in Yorkshire, Oxford
shire, and Berks, valuable lands in the Isle
of Man and in Attorney, Scotland, ireland
aud Wales. OF the New Forest there are
two thousand acres of absolute and sixty
three acres of contingent crown property.
Her Majesty enjoys income from the Forest
of Dean, from several other forests, and
from rich properties in and about London
Osborne, on the Isle of Wight, and Bal
moral, in the Highlands, are the private
property Of the Queen, and are maintained
out of her own income. But she has the
use of few royal palaces besides, and
these are maintained by the nation at an
annual expenditure ranging from 50, 500
to $50, 600. The Queen is in the oc-
cupancy of Buckingham Palace Windsor
Castle, the White Lodge at Richmond
Park, and part of St. James, Palace.
The remainder of the last named palace is
occupied by other members of the royal
family. Other royal palaces maintained
as SUCH although not in the occupancy of
the Queen, are Kensington Palace, Hamp-
ton Court-which, according to recent
estimate based on the statistics of eight or
ten years, costs the nation on the average
over $780, year-Kew Palace, Penn
broke Lodge. the Thatched Cottage and
Sheen Cottage, Richmond Park, Bushy
House in Bushy Park, and Hollywood
Palace. When she visits the CONT
nent, she has one great house or another,
with whatever repairs and refurnishing
are necessary to fit it for temporary royal
occupant, although for all this she pays
out Of her own income Bagshot House,
Gloucester House and Clarence House are
Palatial dwellings, occupied by various
members of the royal family. The Queen
has four rather old-fashioned yachts, on
which she makes her sea journeys, although
the Oldest of them probably is used seldom
or never. The four cost originally about
81, 375. 900.

1t is said that the banana is a perfect
food, which expression means that it alone
will sustain life for an indefinite time. 1t
is well-known to be wholesome and nutri-
tious, and it is certainly cheap; therefore,
it is cause for qualification rather than the
reverse, to find that the consumption of
the fruit in the United States has reached
enormous figures. Last years importa-
tons amounted to l7,427, SAG lunches.
Many Of these went to Southern ports,
New Orleans taking 5,725, 33a punches,
and Mobile 2, 1876, 1873; but New York
took 4, 557, GIL lunches, and Philadelphia
2, 037, 022. The amount is increasing
steadily, year by year, and thus one of the
most beneficent products of the tropics is
becoming more and more extensively used
iIithe North.
