Asthma.
VERONA CLARKE.

The subject of asthma is an exceed ng
ly interesting one to those afflicted, or
their friends. With the fall of the barom-
eter, symptoms develop. 1t is said that
post norton appearances in the rare oc-
currence of death from asthma are al
most identical with those observed in
death from carbonic acid poison. Only
the skillful physician is competent to pre-
scribe drugs for asthma. Change of eli
mate is well known, however, to be an
etficacious remedy in many instances. A
curious case is reported of physician
afflicted with asthma, who frequently
changed his location out of disgust for
tie climate and who finally returned with
satisfaction to his original residence as a
happy relief from all the others. Month

California Corresponds nee.

OAKLAND, CAL, March 81, 1898: The
rush to the Alaska gold fields still con
tinues, every vessel and steamer goes
packed, and still they come, every one in
tent on making his fortune. There has
been an immense quantity of provisions
and clothing sent to Skagwa and Dyea
this spring. A ship started away from
here on the 14th, heavy laden with four
steamboats, and two barges; these vessels
had been built here, then taken apart,
and slowed in the ship; one of the largest
tugs in the port hooked on to the ship,
and will tow her to Dutch harbor.
The notorious ship New York IT. F.
Oakes that was) was wrecked last week at
Half Moon Bay, about 25 miles south of
San Francisco. She was from Hong Kong,
and had on board a valuable cargo; the
ship will be a total loss, but some of the
cargo will be saved in damaged condi-
ton. This is one of the two ships design
ed by Lieut. Gorringe, the man who
brought the Monolith from Egypt to New
York, and was built by John Roach in
1888. She has been unucky ever since
she was launched; has been dismasted
twice, been ashore, and a year or so ago
was more than 200 days making the pas

loading cargo of general merchandise
for New York. Among the cargo she took
five thousand barrels Of wine, enough to
keep the New Workers in headache for
quite while. The Susquehanna will be

Death of Capt w. w. Snowman.

Capt. William w. Snowman, of the
Portland and Boston, was stricken with
apoplexy in his stateroom while the steam
er lay in Portland, April 4th, and died in
few minutes. Capt. Snowman was born
in PeDobscot, Sept. q, 1880, and was the
son of Capt. Thomas and Sarah (White)
Snowman. When Capt. Snowman was a
few years of age his parents removed to
Newburyport Mass, and he received his
education, graduating at the high school
at the age of Is years. He was assocat-
ed with his father in the coasting trade
for three years and when p years old
commanded coasting vessel himself.
He was y years in this business, chiefly
between New England ports, and the last
three years of his connection with the
coasting trade he commanded a packet
sailing between Portland and Boston. In
the spring of 1868 he joined the Portland
Steam Packet Company as second pilot, a
position for which he was well qualified,
as he knew every turn and shoal of the
New England coast. He was second pilot
for 10 years and was then promoted to
first pilot, and when Capt. John Liscomb
died in 1881 Capt. Snowman was made
captain of the John Brooks He has had
charge of every boat of the line at different
times except the fremont From the John
Brooks he succeeded to the command of
the Portland and later to his last charge,
the Bay State. Capt. Snowman was the
oldest captain in point of service in the
employ of the steamship company and
during these 30 years had only been off
duty six weeks. From his perfect knowl-
edge of the coast and his perfect vigilance
he never met with an accident and his
long record has been remarkably clear.
