hansen SOured?

Unpleasant gossip about DR.. Nansen
is circulating in Stockholm. 1t is said
that his experiences in the north have
ruined his temper, soured his disposition
and turned him into q moody nissan
thrope, whose only desire is for solitude.
According to these stories, he left the
Fran and made his perilous journey ON
foot over the drifting ice simply to es-
cape the society Of his shipmates, This
theory has been pushed so far as to make
it account for the fact that Mrs. MAJ
sen, instead Of living at home with her
husband, is making a concert tour Of
Sweden.

The Announcement That Chiaamen VIII

STREAToR, ILL.,, Nov. o. The an
nouncement that Cinnamon would be
placed in the mines Of the northern
Illinois field has caused great excite.
ment here and call has been issued
for a full convention of the district, to
be held Wednesday. In the meantime
the various organizations will get
together and take action. 1t is
claimed that if the Cinnamon are
allowed to go to work here
and elsewhere it will only be a
matter of time when mines employing
that kind of labor will be able to un-
dersen those employing skilled hands,
and thus the price will be again forced
down. The situation here is looked
upon by business men as most serious

The McgaphOnc.

Reports of the rowing contests usu-
ally refer to the megaphone, through
which the various coaches now COM
municate with the crews. This simple
instrument is found to be so valuable
as q means of communication that it is
now looked upon as part &C the nec-
essary paraphernalia in a rowing con-
test. The meyaphone is simply large
cone from thirty to fortyeight inches
long. made of waterproof fibre or light
metal. The voice of person speak
ing into the small end is carried easily
distance of mile, while loud call,
when neither wind nor distractions in
terfere, may be heard on the water, in
open country or along the shore dis
tancs of two miles. The Instruments
often used as a receiver also. The
small en,l is placed at the ear, aud
sounds from o distance which would
otherwise he inaudible can be heard
distinctly. The instrument is usually
held in the hands of the person who
uses it, like speaking trumpet, but
it is constructed SO that it can be fixed
to tripod on a swivel, and the person
using it may remain seated and direct
it to any point. By means of the
megaphone the audiences at nearly all
opeu-air athletic meetings are informed
as TO the winners, and at these places,
as well as in the rowing world, it has
become an invaluable instrument

In the course of some "reminiscences
Of President Franklin Pierce, G.. NJ.
Mcconnell tells this story in the Chi
cago Times Herald: Some days later I
went with the member of Congress
whose Secretary I was to call on the
President on some urgent official busi-
ness. My chief was very absent
minded man in some respects, and in
catching up the short cloak then worn,
on leaving home, and throwing it over
his arm, he had inadvertently caught
up with it certain intimate garment
of his own which happened to be on
the same chair. While he stood talk
ing with Mr.. Pierce he for the first
time shifted this cloak from one arm
to the other, and to my dismay this
garment-an undershirt, in fact
dropped to the floor between them.
Mr.. Pierce saw it, but its owner did
not, and turned to depart. The Presi-
dent saw my look of horror and heard
the expressed snort of his own Secre-
tary behind him, but only the faintest
flicker of smile flashed across his
face, and as the gentleman-quite as
courtly as himself-was in the act of
turning he caught up the ridiculous
estray, twirled it with deft move
ment into a wad, SO to speak, and
passed it, unseen by its owner, to me
as he moved partly between us and
bowed us both out of tho room with
grave, urbane, unruffled courtesy.

Mr.. Wallace, who has stockade on
the Chomo River, wounded q large
elephant, which then charged him.
His cartridges jammed in the breech
of his rifle and he had to run. The
elephant followed him, and while dodg-
ing in and out among the trees Mr..
Wallace stumbled and fell. The ele-
phant then prodded at him with his
tusks, but these, fortunately, went
into the ground on each side without
injnring him. The elephant then with
his trunk lifted Mr.. Wallace and threw
him some yards away. Mr.. Wallace
lay still as if dead. The elephant
came up, pushed him about with his
fore foot, and placed his foot on the
body, but did not press hard, aud
then went away. Mr.. Wallace was
taken up eventually by his boys, much
bruised, and carried into camp. The
elephant was tracked for sixteen miles.
1t made large circuit and died almost
OH the same spot where the accident
happened. The tusks weighed sixty
nine and seventy-one pounds.-British

An Extraordinary Homicide.

An extraordinary case of what is be-
ieved to be involuntary homicide has
just taken place near Aix-de- Chapelle,
France, on the estate Of the Duke of
Arenberg. During the course OF a
shooting party young Belgian noble
man Of the name of Count Edouard de
Breig, was killed by what seemed to
be an accidental discharge Of the gun
,f one of the game keepers. The Pc
clliar feature about the affair is that
this very same game-keeper just twelve
months ago accidentally shot andkilled
during shooting party another guest
Of the duke, a rich manufacturer of
the name of Blankenhorn, and almost
on the very same spot where he laid
low the young count. The game
keeper was condemned to three months
Imprisonment for criminal carelessness
in killing the manufacturer, but
showed so much sorrow and distress
when released from Jail that the duke
took him back into his service, with
The results that are now apparent.

A KING FOR THREE MONTHS.
The Luck of n Sea Captain Wrecked NeHl
the Caroline Islands.


Captain Curtis of the wheat ship
Eurydice was in the city to-day, hav.
ing returned with his vessel to the
West Seattle elevator. He has had All
experience within the past twelve
months that might make many skip
per envious, having ruled as king If
n group Of islands in the South Pa.
citic Ocean. Captain Curtis was the
first officer of the ship Flora T.. Staf
ford, which was lost at sea about q
year ago.
"When the Stafford was given up, 1"
said Captain Curtis this morning, "we
lowered the boats and left her at sea.
J had six men with me in one boat,
and the Captain went in another boat.
My boat headed for the Caroline ISL
auds, aud after fifteen days we came
in sight of land. We were royalty
welcomed by the natives, who could
not do enough to honor us. Ikickikee,
King of the Carolines, insisted that lie
should abdicate his throne and make
me his successor. I did not assume
the royal garments and robes, for
etiquette down there requires none OF
them, but took the sceptre and ruled
over those islands for three months.
I wooed and won the ex-King's daugh.
ter, and I also gave out orders against
cannibalism, for I thought some of
the Stafford's crew might drift ashore.
My orders were strictly obeyed, for I
was an absolute monarch. They al
lowed me little time to sleep. Every
night was compelled to start the
hoolah- -hoolah dances with the women,
and every day and night some dele
cations Of natives from other islands
in the group would call upon me to
arbitrate in some murder case. Those
fellows were always killing each other.
I would get in their canoes and go
with them. T would hear the testi-
mony and decide who was guilty. My
decision was final, and the guilty man
would be shot.
CATER remaining on the islands
three months took passage on the
first steamer that passed. I was
landed at Manila in the Philippines,
and reached there in time to see the
execution of four insurgents. They
were learned native doctors. They
were led out to public park and shot
by half a regiment of soldiers. They
fell to the earth pierced by score of
bullets. There was fighting on the
island all the time. No one was al
lowed in the streets after 8 o'clock at
night. The Captain of the Stafford
had landed safely at Manila eight days
after the wreck"
After leaving Manila Captain Our
tbs succeeded in reaching Hong Kong,
where he was at once placed in COM
mand of the Eurydice. He did not
tell his experience until reaching the
sound.-Seattle (Wash.) Times.
