REVOLUTIONARY HEROINE.
Records Show Deborah Gannet Was
u Mnssnchu.etts Soldier.

The fact that there was another New
England woman besides Moll Pitcher
who won fame at the cannon's mouth
has recently been brought to light as
the result of an inquiry at the pension
bureau. There is n certain lady living
in Massachusetts, who is anxious to be-
come Daughter of the Revolution. She
believed that her genealogy could be
traced back to revolutionary times
through the records of the interior
department. To prove this fact she
wrote to the secretary of the interior.
asking information as to the alleged
military service of Deborah Gannett.
her ancestor, who was said to have
served as an enlisted soldier in the
revolutionary war as a member of the
Massachusetts infantry. Her belief
was confirmed by the receipt of the
following letter:
MADAM: In response to your recent
inquiry, referred to the bureau by Hon.
Webster Davis, acting secretary of the
interior, ! have the honor to advise you
that Deborah Gannett. woman who
served in the revolutionary war under
the name of Robert Shurtleff, made an
application for pension on September
IA, 1878, at which time she was 80
years Of age and residing at Sharon.
Mass, and her pension was allowed
for two years actual service as pri-
vate in the Massachusetts troops. revo-
lutionary war. 1t appears that she en-
listed in the month OF April, 1Tsl, and
served in Capt. George Webb's com
pany, in the Massachusetts regiment
commanded by Col. Shepherd, after
ward by Col. Jackson, until about the
month of November. 17s3, when she
was honorably discharged. During the
time of her service she was wounded
az Tarrytown (probably in the second
battle of that place. and was also pres
ent at the surrender of Lord Corn

STARTLING AGAINST spAaRows
German Bird tn he Pitted Against the
EnxIish One in PennsyIvAnin.

Not deferred by the many failures to
eNterminate the English sparrow, the
Allegheny department, of public works
has adopted a new plan to rid the city
Of this archaeological pest. If the new
plan is worth anything at all, next sum-
mer will see numberless conflicts be-
tween the English sparrow and the
German starting. The Allegheny de-
partment of public works puts its faith
in the startling, and predicts the early
determination of the sparrow.
David Fulton. superintendent of Riv-
orview park, says the German starting
j, the inveterate foe of the sparrow.
y henever the startling has obtained Il
foothold the sparrow eventually has dis
appeared. The starting drives him
from his feeding grounds, destroys his
nest and kills his young. Intact, he per
zscutes the sparrow with the same per-
tnaeity that the sparrow shows toward
the native birds that he has driven ont
Of the Allegheny region.
Superintendent Fulton some time ago
obtained number of pairs of star,ings.
which have been breeding in the aviary
ia Riverview park. By next spring 2,5Gu
fGll-tledged sparrow killers will be
turned loose in the city. The startling
Is a beautiful bird, about nine inches
long, with glistening green-black feath
ers. One bird is more than a match
for half dozen sparrows. Equaling his
special enemy in puguacity, he excels
hJm in strength and quickness of wing.
The startling is migratory, but as the
sparrow does not breed in winter, it is
not feared that the southwark flight of
the German bird viii be followed by an
il crease in the number of sparrows.
Migratory though he is, the starting is
said to be fond of his home and TO re-
turn to ii every spring.
y local German ornithologist sounded
a solemn note of warning when he heard
OF Allegheny's new project. Let the de-
partment of public works beware he
said. The sparrows were first intro
dnced in America because they were
considered useful. As the original two
dozen pairs increased TO thousands they
were found to be a nuisance. They
ruined the crops by devourlpg them and
added to the damage by driving the in
sectivorous birds away. 1t is true that
the starting will persecute the sparrow,
but unfortunately, he is as much an
Ishmael among songbirds as the spar
row is. The starting will find it more
TO his liking to drive out the few song
birds that the other has left. rather than
10 devote his time and attention to the
quarrelsome little sparrow, who is
brave even if he isn't strong. The
starting is as impudent as the cuckoo,
and, like him, thinks it ridiculous to
build himself nest when by looking
about he can find and utilize domicile
that some other bird has built. Super
intendent Fulton will be sorry for hav-
ing introduced this fighter. N. Y. Sun.

Deeds of Heroism In the Wreck of tn .
Tasmania, on MahaI Peninaula

Tasmania, on Mahai Peninsula.
To the brief announcement from Aus
tralia of the wreck Of the steamer Tas-
mania with heavy loss Of life, mail ad-
vices from New Zealand add stirring
particulars.
When the steamer left Auckland on
July 2s she had on board IS saloon and
80 steeraSe passengers, including
number booked through from Sydney.
The place where the vessel was lost is
off the extreme northern point of the
Mahai peninsula, between Osborne and
Napier, where fiat rocks. awash at high
tide, extend seward a mile from the
shore. In dirty weather and on a dark
night the steamer, in charge of the
third officer, ran nearer into land than
was consistent with safety. The cap
tain, aroused too late, was unable to
avert the danger, and the vessel struck
even as the order was given to bring
her head out to sea.
1t is satisfactory to know that all on
board. passengers and crew, exhibited
courage md common sense. There was
no sign of panic. and it was apparently
With good intent, though in apparent
bravado, that one man set himself to
play the piano in order to keep up the
women's spirits. The boats were got
out quickly and the transfer despite a
heavy sea- made without much diff
Guilty. Two hours after striking the
steamer went down, bows first, and the
honts made the best of their way to
shore.
The loss of life occurred in landing.
The larger boats, containing nearly all
the passengers, came through safely,
but the dingy, in which were eight men,
turned turtle in the surf and two of the
occupants were drowned. The chief
stewards boat is also supposed to have
capsized. and it is feared that its occu-
pants are drowned. Six bodies have
been washed ashore and the loss of life
altogether is put at 13. including two
men who perished in an attempt to
rescue.
An old Maori saw the stewards boat
trying to effect landing at Bow Har-
Dor in very heavy surf. They ap-
peared to have only one on r pulling and
steer oar. The boat capsized in the
surf, and every man swan to the beach.
When they touched bottom, however,
they were swept back. -Four hung to
the keel Of the boat, but were washed
on. McNellie, who was the only seaman
in the carpenters boat, acted very
bravely. When the others became ex-
hausted he stuck to the oars, and, sin
gle-handed, brought the dingy within
two chains Of the shore, when It cap
sized, and he was dashed on the rocks
and killed.-San Francisco Chronicle.
