However Il subscription is being raised
by various benevolent people, including

HER CURIOSITY WAS SATISFIED.

Among the names of counts, barons and

In vain the lady asked who Hermann
Berger was. None OF her servants could
give her any other information than that
the individual was II remarkably hand
some young man. The lady's curiosity
became excited, and she gave orders to
admit the stranger if he should call
AGAIN.
The order was punctuaily obeyed, and
on the following day she received really Il
charming young mau, dressed iii the most
exquisite style, who evidently appeared
greatly embarrassed ut the honor of Il

somewhat faded, beauty.

Caught in the Quicksands.

] A party consisting Of gentleman and
three ladies had an unfortunate ex-
perience on the small beach opposite
Spring Point ledge yesterday afternoon
They were driving a span of horses along
when the animals struck the quioksand
and were unable to proceed any further.
The animals were high spirited and
struggled some but the more they
struggled the deeper they went. The
party alighted and some gentlemen near
by who had Witnessed the incident came
down to render assistance. The carriage
wheels had sunk to the hub and the
horses were in much worse condition.
The forward legs had only gone down
about to their knees but behtHd they
were buried nearly to the top Of their
backs. With some difficulty they were
extricated and the party drove away.

HARDsHIPs AT SEA.
The Schooner Emma Here-The Morris
and Her Load of Grindstones-Hemlo
Cargo Arrives.

The fishing schooner Emma, which
has been ashore in Tarpaulin Cove on
the Vineyard Sound, arrived here Sunday
morning in tow of Boston tug. She
went to Union wharf, and from there
to the marine railroad. Her port side
is considerably broken in, and her bot
tom has probably been damaged to con-
siderable extent.
The British schooner Harry Morris, of
Lower Cove, N. g., which put into Rich
mond on the 18th, in distress, arrived
here Monday morning. Her distress was
occasioned by being run into by another
English schooner, which in the night
struck the Morris on the port quarter,
carrying away one Of her davits and TAX
ing piece off the stern, SO that it had
to be patched with canvas. Capt. Mo
Lean Thought that his vessel was going
down, and preparations were made to
leave the vessel. The captain asked the
other vessel to stand by and help them,
but she did not heed the request and
disappeared In the darkness. The crew
OF the Morris took to their boats: but
seeing that the schooner did not sink.
returned to her. They then found that
they could patch her up and get into
Rockland.
The Morris was loaded with grind
stones, which are consigned to this port.

mouth, N. S., has brought cargo of

ANCIENT APPLE TREES.
1t was Bearing Apples Two and a Half
Centuries Ago and is Bearing Ihem
Now.

On Richard M. Libby's farm in Scar
boro, on the road to Dustan's corner, is
one OF the most remarkable apple trees in
Maine. 1t Is believed that the tree was
bearing apples 200 years ago.
Mr.. Libby says that the tree this year
bears about dozen apples. 1t is large
tree standing alore on knoll in Mr..
Libby's field. The trunk is now SO much
decayed that large Newfoundland dog
can crawl into it.
The apples which the tree bears this
year are fair sized, smooth-skinned.
red-cheeked, the red verging on pink
color and arc in flavor mildly sour and
very good tasting.
Mr.. Libby says that the early settlers
of the town about $3.50 years ago found
this tree growing alone and bearing
fruit.
The origin of the tree was then a
mystery and it is believed that 1t was
never explained.
Such lonely and mysterious apple trees
have been noticed in other places. Sixty
years ago in tract of thick woods in
Vinalhaven an apple tree was foarishing
as best it could, beariug apples of the
sourest variety.
