\ BASE BETRAYAL.
BY CHARLES Il LEWIS.

wrecked on Il reef in tho gulf of
Siam, and the sole survivor of a
crew of IL men WAS sailor named
George Matthew's.
He tuatrd an entire night and
part of Il day on piece of wreck
age, and was finally cast ashore on
one of the Paniaug islands. All
charts up to 1864 show Il group of
three Islands, Those printed since
show bat two.
As Il matter of fact, one of the is
lands disappeared in 1868, and sound.
inG> over the spot show II depth of
100 fathOms. 1t was on this island,
however. that Matthews was cast
ashore, after drifting for 80 or 40
miles, and he remained there for
four months before being taken off.
His island was almost circular in
form ana about half mile across,
and between the wild fruits on the
trees and the shclltiSh along the
shore the sailor did not suffer for
food
He found evidences that fishermen
and sh.ll gathrrrrs visited the is
land At intervals. bat it was 100
days after landing before he saw
human face.
Matthew's had been on the island
about 60 days when Il strange thing

THE LEGlSLATURE

The only thing that can he said
definitely this week concerning the
work of the Legislature that could
not have been said last week is that
the School book bill was passed, and
the bill reducing the fees and salaries
of county officers has become law.
and the Harris railroad hill which
had passed both houses was vetoed
by the Governor so there is no rail-
road legislation this session. A num-
Der of other important measures are
passing back aud fort h between the
two houses amt their fate cannot be
determined until the hour of final adj
journment which will probably be to-
night or tomorrow. There is PSpu-
list talk of an extra session for the
express purpose of passing a railroad
bill; but from that calamity as well as
from battle, murder and sudden
death, good Lord deliver u.s.
