The cruiser Brooklyn has met the expectations
of those who believed that on her trial run she
would develop marvellous speed. and has proved
herself the fastest vessel Of her class The dis
tance covered was 50 knots. and the average
speed maintained was 80 knots per hour. For
: knots on the return trip her speed rose as high
as 22.9. so that for a time ii was hoped that the
average for the entire run would reach 22. Under
the system Of bonuses. which, as The Tribune
has frequently maintained has little to com
mend II. the Brooklyn has earned for her bnild-
ers n premium of S35O000 The success Of the
new cruiser is another notable triumph for the
Cramps, who are entitled to fresh congratula
tions on their skill as shipbuders.

SERIOUS GHARGEs.-The Baptist con-

their pastor, Rev. G. I" Finch, a per-
manent leave of absence. Charges
were brought against him OF. improper
relations with disreputable women, and
upon investigation it was developed
that his morality did not measure up; to
the standard. He was. al raigned be;
fore the church authorities, and while he
protested innocence and denounced the
charges as false, the authorities considT
dered the preponderauce OF evidence
against him and he was accordingly un-
pastored. Rev. Finch has been in
charge of the church at sWytheville
about six months: His place of resi-
dence is at Pulaski City, and he is also
pastor of the Baptist church at that
place, dividing his time between the
two churches. 60 At Pulaski similar
charges had been brought against him,
but the evidence was not sufficient to
cause his discharge. A committee from
that church are expected in Wytbeville
ito investigate the matter, and if they
are satisfied that the charges against
him there are true ne will be dismissed

BATTLE BETWEEN SNAKE AND
BIRDS.

al A well authenticated account of an
exciting and desperate encounter on
Wednesday between large black
snake and two birds-knowu as
French or sandy mocking birds-is re-
lated by q resident Of Ellicott City,
Md. While the gentleman was walk
ing around patch of underground in
the outskirts of the town his attention
was attracted by the excited chirping
of the birds. He at first supposed they
were engaged in domestic battle, but
later saw a black snake at least four
feet long with its head erect, and seem
ingiy trying to advance to where it was
evident the birds were determined it
should not go. 1t was noticed that in
small bush few feet farther on was
the nest of the birds, and it appeared
clear that it was the eggs his snakeship
was in quest of, and Of which the two
birds were defending at the risk of their
lives.
\ For nearly ten minutes the battle
ragged, neither seeming to gain the ad-
vantage. Whenever the snake would
strike at one of the birds the other one
would aim dexterous pick at its
body, causing it to turn in an opposite
direction. At times the attacks of the
birds were SO rapid and vicious that the
snake would be compelled to recnil aud
crawl under the grass and branches for
shelter. Wbe the progress OF the rep
tile could not be stopped without risk
ing too near its head, the birds would
Immediately change their attacks to
the rear, and by pecking the snake al
t,rnately near the tail force it to turn
round, when it would viciously pursue
its futteringo oombatants some feet
away. Finally, the gentleman, seeing
that the two birds had become so ex-i
hausted that they could no longer re-
sist the advance of the snake, killed IL
with club. ,os. o,r .,
