SHIP SINKS.
A Terrible Marine Disaster Off
the Falkland Islands.
An American Vessel Goes to Pieces on
the Billy Rock.
Nearly Twenty Lives Were Lost-voinn-
teer Crew Attempt n Rescue But Fail
No Possible Clew to the Identity
of the Wrecked Vessel.

WASHINGTON, Aug THE Falkland
islands, off the east coast of Patagonia,
were in May the scene Of q marine dis
aster involving the loss of nearly
twenty American lives. which as yet
remains wrapped in mystery. But few
details of the disaster have yet been re-
ceived from the United States consul at
Port Stanley. Consul Miller reports
that on the evening Of May "a news
was brought there that large ship,
evidently Of American build, had
struck on the Billy rock. The Falk-
land Island Co. 8 launch was impressed
into service with volunteer crew COM
manded by Patrick Mcpherson, master
of the bark Bankville, OF Liverpool,
went to the rescue. The rough sea,
however, Capt Mcpherson found, pre-
vented him from getting close to the
ship. He brought her, however.
near enough to count IA men in
the rigging, who hailed him in
English and begged him to rescue
them. Capt Mcpherson put back to
port for a life boat and returned imme-
diately, but before he reached the ship

stood by all night in the hope of pick
ing up survivors, but after 16 hours eff
forts gave up the hope of saving life and
returned to Port Stanley. Late in May
diver went down into the vessel, but
was unable to ascertain its name
or hailing port. The only trace OF
humanity found on board was the body
Of a young woman about eighteen
years of age. dressed in maroon colored
dressing gown, gold watch chain
about her neck, but nothing to furnish
clew to her identity. The body was
buried according to the Episcopal SER
vice by the government of Falkland.
Several articles were recovered
from the wreck, but the only
one giving possible clew to
the identity of the vessel was part of

THE FLOWERS OF THE TREE.

Need to stsop to No Tricks for the Scat
tering of Pollen.
It has come about that the lowiy
plants, unable to secure their ends by
fair words, have had recourse to guile
Ito tempt the insects by velvety tex
lures of rich color widely spread, by
exhaling sweet and powerful odors, by
Offering nectar, and finally by devising
artful appliances, whereby an insect
can be loaded with pollen without his
knowledge what time ne is imbibing
the seductive nectar. Some have gone
q step lower, and because they could
not afford to produce so brilliant q dis
play as other plants. have set to work
to press the vulgar carrion-loving flies
into their service by developing petals
of a livid purple hue, and giving forth
a putrid odor. Faugh! Shall hearts
of oak and beech and ash stoop to
such tricks?
The forest tree, says Good Words, has
hundred or a thousand years to live,
and exhibits no prccocious anxiety to
produce fruit At IS, 20 or 30 years
is time enough to think of such things;
end when the time comes the delicate
essential organs are protected merely
by few simple green or yellow scales.
or by none at all. The pollen is lavish
ly produced. for the wind is not SO pre-
else a vehicle of Transmission as the
insect, and but a very small percentage
of the pollen grains will reach their
destination. This, however, is of little
consequence, for an incipient seed needs
but one pollen grain to fertilize it, and
should q hundred fall upon it, 80 would
be superfuous.

Prophecy and History.

Why don't our silver friends stop tell
ing what is going to happen if they
have their way and content themselves
by learning what did happen when other
nations had similar epidemic of silver
lunacy such as now menaces us? Their
prophecies won't accomplish anything,
because they wish it, but stern reality
will repeat the disasters with us that it
inflicted on others If we presist in our
willful blindpess.--George Cans.

the company, VIII appear at the head
of the editorial column this morning.
The Pilot was established October -.
lS93. and has had an eventful career so
far as changes OF ownership are con-
ccrned. Since Mr. II. T.. Turner's resiC-
nation as business manager in favor of
Mr. j. II. Hart. there have been quite
n number of negotiations ON foot. One
OF these which fell through at the last
moment. had proceeded so far that MIR.
Hart had informed his employees that he
had severed connection with the paper
Mr.. Turner actually came in and took
charge. He remained only about an
hour, when Mr.. Hart came back and re-
summed operations at the old stand, Mr.
Turner going out, the deal having fallen
through.
] is not known what change, II any.
will be made in the policy of the paper
by the new owners, nor is the purchase
price of the plant known outside of the
circle of those connected with the trans
fer. Messrs. Grandy and Barron are.
OF course, the principal owners.
