CHASED BY A GUNBOAT.
Spanish Cruiser Makes 1t Lively for
British Fruit Steamer.

PHILADELPHIA, May 23.-After being
twice chased by Spanish gunboats and
passing through perfect storm of shot,
which splashed in the water across the
vessels bows, the British fruit steamer
Ethelred passed through the exciting or
deal unscathed and arrived at this port
tonight after a five days run from Port
Antonio, Jamiaca.
When the Ethelred left here May 12 it
was the intention of Capt. John d. Hart
to accompany her, but he was arrested as
he was about to step on the gang-plank to
go aboard it. His invalid daughter was a
passenger. 1t is supposed that agents of
the Spanish government in this city had
notified the Spanish authorities at Havana
that Hart would be on the vessel, hence
the effort to hold up the Ethelred in Cuban
waters.
The first encounter with the Spanish
cruisers occurred on the trip down. Just
after dusk on Sunday evening, May 16. a
gunboat without any lights shot out from
under the Maisi capes and crowdtng on all
steam. steered directly for the fruit yes
sci. After steaming for an hour without
gaining an inch. the. gunboat turned a
SearchEght on the other vessel. All steam
was crowded on the Ethelred, which was
beginning to show the Spaniard clean

belched from the cruisers side and a Sec
ond later a solid shot cut the water half
mile ahead Of her bows. Then came a
second and third shot, each nearer than
the others Capt. Israel kept on his course
and after another hours hot chase the
Spaniard dropped from the race.
The second chase happened last Thursday
afternoon in almost the exact spot in
which the first attempt TO hold UP the yes
sci occurred. Just as the Ethelred rounded
Cape MaisL a big Spanish gunboat of the
newest type started out from under the
cape and gave chase 10 the Ehtelred. For
two hours the chase was kept up, enlivened
now and then by solid shot throwing up
a sheet of white spray Just ahead of the
swift vessels bows. 1t began TO look as

THE CARPENTER.

That evening, when the Carpenter swept out The fragrant shavings from the workshop floor, And placed the tools in order and shut to And barred, for the last time, the humble door, And, going on His way to save the world, Turned from the laborer's lot for eyermore,
 wonder-was He glad? That morning, when the Carpenter walked forth From Joseph's doorway, in the glimmering light, And bade His holy mother long fare well, And, through the rose-shot skies with dawning bright, Saw glooming the dark shadow of the cross, Yet, seeing, set His feet toward Cal vary's height,
 wonder-was He sad? Ah! when the Carpenter went on His way, He thought not for himself of good or ill., One was His path, through shop or thIonging men raving His help cen to the cross crowned hill, In toiling, healing, teaching, suffer ing-all His joy, His life, to do His Fath- CTS will;
 And earth and heaven are
 glad!
