4 CURIOUS CATCH.
Strange Manner In Which q Stolen Bicy.
ole Was Recovered.

Strange Manner In Which Stolen Bicy.
ole Was Recovered.
Among the residents of Bermuda are two
brothers, one of whom besides being an
enthusiastic yachtsman, is also swift and
skillful rider of the bicycle. Some time
ago, shortly before the date set for bicy-
Gle race in which he was to be ono Of the
contestants, his wheel mysteriously disap-
peared, and all efforts to find a trace Of it
proved fruitless.
One day about IA months after the bicy-
Gle had been presumably stolen fisher
man who was angling out in the middle
Of St. Georges harbor for floating fish
hooked large one, which instantly plunged
into the depths Of the harbor in vain en-
deayor to escape. The angler played with
him for awhile, and then, feeling the line
tighten in his hand and the strain become
steady, began to haul up. He soon realized
that he had at the end of his line one Of
the heaviest catches that he had ever made,
and-what he could not understand about
it-that it was apparently almost dead
weight He hauled away, however, until
there appeared above the water not only
the fish that he had hooked but a bicycle,
round the handles Of which the fish, in his
efforts to escape, had wound the line
number of times.
When the astonished fisherman had suf-
fciently recovered from his amazcmcnt at
his curious catch, he took the bicycle
ashore. There it was soon identified as tho
one which had so incXplicably disappeared.
Strange to say, the machine, in spite of
the fact that it had been ut the bottom or
the harbor for IA months, was but little
damaged and was easily put in running
order again.
For some time no clew rs to how 1T
found its way to its watery hiding place
could be discovered. Eventually, however,
several circumstances came to light that
pointed to q man with whom tho bicycle
rider had once had trouble. At one time
whenever he rode past this mans place the
dogs which were kept there would run out
and bark and snap at the rider, causing
him considerable annoyance and trouble.
At first he contented himself with simply
driving off the brutes as best ho could, but
when he found that they were set upon
him by their master he took prompt meas
ures to have the man arrested, brought in.
to court and fined. From various circum-
stances that were found out regarding the
disappearance of the bicycle there seemed
to be no doubt that the owner of the ugly
dogs was responsible for 1t, and that he
stole the machine and sunk 1t in the har-
Dor in order to be revenged on its owner

AristOcracy In Food.

A writer in the London Chronicle has
been making study or rather quest, in
search of an analogy between the world of
people and the world Of food. The simple
formula that pork and onions are vulgar
and beef and celery are not sutlices to put
the subject on an argumcntative basis.
Why should onions be vulgar, 1t is asked,
but is not answered, though it is admitted
that some persons, "with as much shallow
ness as ignorance" argue that onions are
vulgar because of their too potent fra
GRANGE. "With every DESIRE" continues
the writer, "to treat this side of the sub
iect delicately, must assert that no per-
son Of good digestion is martyred or can be
ostracized by his devotion to the humble
onion. 1t Is not vulgar to smell OF onions,
but it is vulgar, 1 think, not to have
good digestion. Perfect personal scrupu-
lousness demands that one be in every way
clean, event tremble for this frankness,
vet am not ashamed of ito having
clean stomach. Therefore, in my view, 1t
Is not his scent which labels the onion
vulgar"
Other dietetic puzzles are also consider
ed, as why cabbages take lower rank
than their cousins german, the caulitlower
and broad beans arc "a little vulgar, and
peas their close relatives, mot at all;
why boiled corned beef is not on tho same
social level as roast beef, and kidneys are
admitted to the best society while tripe ls
kept out, and other commonly accepted
but rarely thought of food distinctions.
The writer finally accepted it all as bit OF
snobbery that should be brought to light
and banished in so doing, asserting, sen-
sibly enough, that "the idea that all food
Is not equally refined Is, when looked at
frankly, so inordinately silly that one hard
ly. dares to write it,

TRAGEDY ON THE SEA.
Wreck of an italian Bark on the
Massachusetts, Coast.
SUICIDE OF CAPTAIN AND MATE.

Three Sailors Were Drowned and Seven
Reach Shore in safety-Ths Monte
Tabor, from Trapani, Italy, Laden
with Salt, a Complete Wreck.
HIGHLAND LIGHT, Mass, Sept 15.-The
Italian bark Monte Tabor, from Trapani
for Boston, with u cargo Of salt was
wrecked on Peakad Hill bar AT midnight.
A thick fog prevailed all night and al
though the crew of the Peaked Hill life
saving station patrolled the beach con-
stantly nothing was known Of the disaster
until some OF the crew reached shore on
pieces of tho wreck None Of them could
speak or understand English; the informa-
ton CLEANED from them was very meager.
Afterwards chest came ashore, evidently
the property of the captain.
From documents found in 1t the name
and destination Of the vessel were learned
Later by signs the crew made known the
action of the officers in committing sui
eide, their motions being taken Mt first to
indicate that the captain had shot him
self and that the mate had cut his throat.
When two bodies with throats cut came
ashore, however, 1t appeared that the
dumb language had been misunderstood,
and that both the mate and captain had
killed themselves by throat cutting,
The dead are: Louis Generic, captain
and Rappolla Giovanni, mate, by SUICIDE
Oliver Manuelo, cook, Eppellete BragE
and Bornello Capello, seamen, drowned
Soon after the seamen came ashore a
boats crew from the life saving station
put off for the wreck, but they found
nothing left The vessel had gone to
pieces almost Immediately. The surviv-
ing members of the crew. numbering
seven, are being cared for by the life
savers.
The Monte Tabor left Trapani June 81.
She is wooden vessel Of COS tons gross.
She Is 1888 feet long, 80 feet beam and feet
inches depth of hold. She was built at
Varazze and hailed from Genoa Italy.
Trapani is port largely interested In the
salt trade, and the Monte Tabor left there
under favorable conditions The time con-
sumed on the voyage according to expert
seamen, was unlnistakable evidence Of her
slowness. They say that an American
bark of modern build could have COM
pleted the voyage several weeks ago
