HE WANTED HIS SHARE.
An Incident of Decatur's Capture of
 the Frigate Macedonian.

Ihls IS the story of a young sailor who lived two generations before young Dan Walnngford, who gave his complete for tune of AS cents to build a new battleship to replace the Maine. His first name was Bill and his last name is withheld. The incident occurred in the eventful year of lSl2, on board our frigate United States, when, under Captain Decatur's skillful command, she captured, after long shot" action, the British frigate Macedonian, bringing her a prize to New York. Deca- tur got a gold medal from Congress in recognition of the capture, and this Is what vermont newspaper, printed in the year Of Waterloo, tells of iBllS part in this sea fight:
 ''On board Decatur's ship was a little boy about years old. He was not con- Sldered one of the regular crew, but he shared the mess of a generous sailor who had two years before taken him from his widowed mother. The spirit of his father. who had also been a seaman, had long since gone aloft and left his widow and little ones on the shoals of poverty. When the Macedonian hove in sight and all hands were clearing ship for action. the little fellow stepped up to Commodore Decatur.
 I wish my name might be put down on the roll
 And what for, my lad?' inquired the commander.
 prize money, sir answered he.
 Pleased with the spirit and confident courage of the little hero, his name was ordered on the list; but the moment was too important to say more. After the prize was taken Decatur thought of the little sailor boy and called him up
 Well, Bill said he. we have taken her, and your share of the prize, if we get her safe in, will be about S200. What will you do with it?'
 I'll send one-half of it to my mother, sir and the other half shall send me to school
 That's noble,' cried the commodore
 Delighted with the spirit of the lad. he took him under his immediate protection, and obtained for him the berth of a mid- shipman. Every attention is given to his education, and he gives great promise of making an accomplished officer. New York Sun

RAYMOND DIES
 BY THE MOOSE First of the Baden Mur- derers Executed at
 Folsom.
Killing of Charles Andrews Is Avenged in Part by the
 Law.
The Condemned Man Meets His Fate Bravely and Makes No Fare
 well Speech.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SACRAMENTO, April S.-W. H. Ray mond was hanged at Folsom Prison this morning at 10 o'clock. The execution was unaccompanied by startling incident. Raymond had nothing to say upon the gallows, was cool and collected and died bravely. Before the execution Raymond received spiritual consolation from Rev. Father Hunt of Sacramento. Among those who witnessed the execution was Sheriff Mansfield of San Mateo County.
 The crime for which Raymond paid the penalty was the murder of Charles A. Andrews in the Grand Hotel in Baden in November last. Raymond and George Willitts went to the hotel for the pur- pose of robbery, and in the scuff1e which ensued Willitts fatally shot Andrews and wounded a man named Connolly. Will litts escaped, but was captured recently and now awaits the death sentence at San Quentin.
 Harry Winters was to have been ex- ecuted to-day with Raymond, but through the confession of Raymond, made to Warden Aull in February last, in which Raymond tried to exonerate Winters. an appeal to the Supreme Court was granted.
 Raymond and Willitts had been out of Folsom Prison but few weeks prior to the perpetration of the crime.

Captain Jeff. F. Moser and Lieuten- ant Le Roy Mason Garrett of the Unit ed States navy were guests of Henry F. Fortmann at the San Francisco Club last night. The naval officers were accompanied also by Hon. Arthur Drysdale, M. P. and Queens counsel, Canada.

This great and useful work is interrupted by the probability of war, however, and it is difficult to estimate the setback this will give the fishing industry. These naval gentle men were with tn. San Francisco when she was put in commission and at the time the Itata was turned over to the San Francisco in the Chilean troubles.
 "All officers have been detached from the Albatross." said Captain Moser yesterday, and the vessel is laid up for repairs There is no doubt in the minds of the naval officers that there | will be war;"

TRACING A LOST STUD.

Some odd stories of the recovery of lost diamonds are told by an old Union-square 1eweler One of them is his own experi- ence.
 One day last June," he says, 'I hap pened to recollect that I was going to a reception. Before leaving the store wrapped my two-carat diamond stud in a piece of tissue paper and slipped 1t into my vest pocket. After dinner, while dressing in my room, I went to my pocket to get the stud. It was not there put my hand in my fob pocket thinking it was surely there; then in the other vest pocket; then in the inside pocket and then in my four trousers pockets; but it was in none of them.
 left that on my desk" I thought; l will find it there in the morning. 1 will put on a plain gold stud tonight
 The next morning the stud was not to be found in the store. I thought of every step had taken on the way home and then called our porter
 George said l, just before I went home last night I slipped diamond stud wrapped in tissue paper into my pocket and, starting out of the store, went across Broadway, through Union square at Fifteenth street going to the left of the fountain, and then up the center path to Seventeenth street and Fourth avenue. l went down the right-hand side of Seventeenth street to Second avenue and then home On my walk home have a distinct recollection of putting my hand into my pocket for my penknife or some thing else. l must have pulled out the stud and dropped t. Now, I want you to follow that path and follow carefully every step of the way, and don't want you to come back until you have found the stud
 He started out. and in less than half an hour returned with the stud. He had found it, still wrapped in the paper. in the gutter, few steps this side of Second avenue, and he went home happy that night with a s2O gold piece in his pocket."-New York Sun.

MARINE TRAFFIC GROWS.
Railroad Between Vladivostok and Habarofka Has Already Been
 Completed.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

TACOMA, April S.-Japanese papers announce on authority of correspond ent at Vladivostok that Russia Is about to inaugurate an extension of Russian steamship services in the Orient that will strongly tend to revo- lutionize existing communications in the far East. Their Vladivostok corre- spondent writes that the railroad be- tween Vladivostok and Habarofka has already been completed, and the time and distance between Vladivostok and Central Siberia has been considerably shortened. Meanwhile Russian marine traffic in the Orient has increased and the Russian Government is now con- sulting with Scherveloff & Go. upon the question of instituting eight new steamship services in the Orient as fol- lows:
 1. Weekly service of steamers be- tween Vladivostok. Hongkong and Shanghai, steamers to call at Nagasaki and Canton.
 ?. Service of steamers running be- tween Vladivostok and Korean ports, Newchwang. Tientsin, Chefoo and Shanghai. The line will run in connec- tion with the Russo Chinese Railway, and regular boats on Sungari River.
 3. Line between Shanghai and Han- kow. This line is to connect with steamers of Russia's volunteer fleet running from the Baltic Sea to Vladi- vostok.
 4. Line between Vladivostok, Shi- monoski. Kobe and Yokohama.
 5. Line between Vladivostok, Hako- date and Yokohama. By this route connection will be formed with Ameri- can steamers to San Francisco and the Siberian Railway. It is reported that MT. Scherveloff early recognized the advantage of this line and consulted with Americans as to the connection.
 6. Line between Nicolaivsk and Hako- date. Nicolaivsk is. situated at the mouth of Amor River and is the com mercial center in the north, especially for fish. The number of fishermen pro- ceeding thither from Hakodate is in- creasing yearly. About ten steamers of 400 to 500 tons burden are sent there from Hakodate every year to carry fish in addition to some hundreds of sailing vessels and junks. The place is very prosperous in summer. The Russian steamers on this line are inteded to call at the ports on both sides of Tartary Straits and at Otaru, Hokkaido.
 :. Line from Vladivostok to Nico- laivsk, via Saghalien and Tartary Straits.
 s. Line from Vladivostok to Petro- paulovski, via Saghalien.
 The last named two are already opened by the volunteer fleet of steam CTS, and the proposal Is made to in- crease the number of voyages and to put more suitable vessels on this route,

UNCLE SAM IN WAR.

Speaking of war prompts the reflection that Uncle Sam has been uniformly suc- cessful every time he has appealed to the sword.
 In the 123 years of his existence he has tion, the war of 1S12, the war with the Barbary States, the Mexican war and the war for the Union. The various brushes he has had with the Indians were mere incidents. In every one of these wars the Stars and Stripes have been triumphant In the war with the Barbary States Uncle Sam was long way from his base of supplies, and the Barbary States were backed with the moral support of Great Britain, and yet Uncle Sam cleaned up those pirates so thoroughly that the Mediterranean Sea became as free from their attacks as is one of the American inland seas. The war of the revolution and the war of 1872 were fought against tremendous odds, and yet the United States won. In the same period, or since the beginning of United States independ- ence. England has carried on six wars, two of which, that of the colonies and the war of 1872, were lost by her. France lost two wars in the same period, the war with the allied powers and the Franco Prussian war. Prussia out of five wars in that period lost two, Austria lost three, dertook except in the ten years Gar in Cuba, which she never admitted was any thing more than insurrection, and which she quelled only by false promises.

 Representative Lorimer of illinois IS authority for the statement that Gen. eral Lee will make some startling dis closures before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations when he arrives here regarding the conspiracy to plow up the Maine. It was announced yes- terday that General Lee would Ds called before the committee, but the nature of the testimony expected rom him was not disclosed.
 ''I understand that General Lee Is tG supply the missing link in the testl- mony," said Lorimer. My informa- tion is that Captain Sigsbee is in pos- session of the facts, but does not 1eek at liberty to give them until the person who gave them to him releases him from the secrecy imposed. That per- son. I understand, is General Lee"
 It is said that the information Gene ral Lee is expected to testify to relates to the extinguishment of the electric lights in Havana at the instant of the blowing up of the Maine. Electrical experts have said that if the lights went out in Havana at the time or thd explosion it would be conclusive evil dence that the mine under the Maine must have been fired from shore cleo. trical connection. Captain Sigsbee be- fore the Foreign Relations Committee said he had information that the lights had gone out, but did not think it ad- yisable to give the name of his lnform- ant while he was in Cuba His inform ant is said to be General Lee.

JUNEAU, Alaska, April (by steam ship Al-Ki, via Seattle, April S).-A horrible catastrophe, surpassing in the number of fatalities the flooding of the canyon last fall by the mountain lake has occurred in Dyea Canyon, between Sheep Camp and the Scales. An ava lanche of snow and ice yesterday after noon swooped down the mountain, burying alive and crushing between forty and fifty men, and injuring nearly as many more. There is great excite ment as Skaguay and Dyea, and many will leave here for the scene of the dis tster on the steamship Australia, which sails late tonight for Skaguay. The irst news of the calamity reached here at o'clock this afternoon on the steamship Discovery and the Al-Ki came in at about o'clock tonight and confirmed the report.
 The Al-Ki left Skaguay at 9:30 this morning. AS the fatal snow slide oc- cured at about o'clock yesterday Sunday afternoon only meager details were obtainable here tonight. The representative of The Call whom I left In charge at Skaguay and Dyea during my absence chartered a tug at Skag- uay last evening to take him around the point to Dyea and from there he will go by horse to the place of death. I will reach the scene tomorrow after noon.
 A telephone message was received at Skaguay from Dyea late last night, stating that twenty-seven bodies had been dug out of the snow. A large force of volunteers is at work with pick and shovel throwing aside the snow in the hope that it may be in time to rescue some of the buried men alive. The res- ruers worked all night
 About o'clock this morning another message came by telephone from Dyea stating that eighteen more bodies had been excavated. If these figures are accurate they will make total of forty-three dead.
 The slide occurred in about the same place where the lake of water broke loose last fall. It was near Stone House and over on the other side of the canyon. John Pellett of Seattle, a pas senger on the Discovery, left Sheer Camp yesterday morning, a few hours before the snow slide. He said:
 "The first we heard of the accident was last evening at Skaguay. The re. port came over from Dyea by tele. phone. I left Sheep Camp early yes. terday morning to catch the first boat south. It had been showing steadily for two days up the canyon. It was heavy, wet snow. Great quantities or 1t accumulated on the mountain sides and I expected some of it to fall down There was so much snow that did no see how it could cling to the sides of tn, canyon.
