Miscellaneous Gleanings.

One dav last week a boat was seen
tossing about near Vancouver. but no
one appeared to be in it. The following
day some fishermen went out TO it and
discovered lying in the bottom. per-
fectly nude, a man in an unconscious
condition. In the beat was a suit of
clothes, but they were far too small for
the man. The man was a mass of
bruises, aud though he has since re-
covered consciousness he has lost his
reason, so no particulars can be learned
regarding the strange affair. In the
boat was a trunk containing papers
which showed that the owners name
was John Burns.
Gin Pom, a Chinaman, was hanged at
Spokane last Friday fer the murder of
Lee Tong. The execution was witnessed
by 400 persons, admitted by cards. A
vast throng gathered outside. In his
cell Gin Pom prayed and professed faith
in the Christian religion, attended by
two Christian Chinese ministers. He
wept and trembled, but when the mo-
ment came for the march to the scat
fold he nerved himself and walked
calmly W the steps. He showed no
sign Of weakness on the scaffold, and
lent his assistance to the preparations
for the execution.
