A StOwaway's Fix.

George Ferguson, stowaway, who
was held on board the steamer Barrow
more to be returned to England, got
himself into an uncomfortable position
while attempting to escape. He tried
to crawl through the dead light of the
room in which he was confined and
drop overheard, but after getting his
shoulders through lie stuck fast. He
could not get his hips through the
hole, aud neither could he draw his
shoulders back, and he hung there,
half inside and half outside of the
ship. 1t took only short time to
convince him that escape was impos-
sible, and then he began to shout for
aid, but the noise made in loading the
ship prevented his cries from being
heard, aud it was not until he had
been in his unpleasant position for
nearly three hours that any help came
to him. The seamen of the Barrow
more tried in every way to extricate
him, but without effect. They pullol
him backward by the legs and forward
by the arms, and covered his body
with grease to prevent it from stick
ing, but it was not until some one
thought of unscrewing the brass
frame of the dead light that he was
gotten out, and then the frame came
out with him aud had to be cut off
with a saw. 1t was 6 o'clock when lie
tried to make his escape, and it was
nearly II when he was taken out, SO
that he was thoroughly, exhausted and
a good deal bruised. He will go back
on board the ship when she sails. -

HIS SUPREME COURT CAR6.

The Predominant Tone Was Gray, but
Green and Gold Were Plentiful.
Herein shall be named no names.
But the exterior makeup of q famous
western lawyer, who recently appeared
in the chamber of the supreme court

only to indicate that the world has

western lawyer is Chicago man, al.
though most of his practice is in a

in all likelihood, win the case that he
argued in this rig;
A slate-colored, wide.skirted frock
coat, with slate-colored satin facings;
velvet waistcoat, the groundwork Of
which was Tyrian purple, with silk
violets scattered irregularly through
out; dove.colored worsted trousers,
creased to arazor edge; white.and-
black striped spats; pointed gray
suede shoes; red-and.g striped
shirt, with an enormous green puff
tie, kept in place by diamond Of gig
lamp proportions; straight collar, cut
ting under the lobes of his ears; non
attachable wristbands that practically
covered his whole hands, and jewelry
watch chains, fobs, rings, etc.--ad

rig when the profound western lawyer
appeared on the street.

Morphinoinania.

Much information is given concern
ing morphinism in work on tho
morphine habit, lately published in
Paris. 1t is said there that Germany,
France and the United States are the
countries in which the habit is most
widespread but that it has it's victims
in Russia, Sweden and Turkey, and
that even in the extreme East NOR
phine as narcotic is supplanting
opium. Statistics are furnished of
1000 cases, collected from all parts of
the world-650 men and $50 women.
These statistics show that of the male
morphinists the medical profession
supplies the largest number, 40 per
cent. Men OF science come next, with
Is per cent. then merchants, eight per
cent, while clergymen, laborers and
politicians occupy the lowest positions
on the list. Women of means are the
most numerous class among the fe-
males, Az per cent. followedb wives
of medical men, 10 per cent. In Ger
many there are entire villages whose
inhabitants are addicted to the use of
the drug, but the general belief that
the morphine habit is more extensive.

LIFE ON A FRENCH PENAL SHIP.
Floating Prison which Conveys Convlcts
to Penal Colonies.

Floating Prison which Conveys Convicts
to Penal Colonies.
The French transport ship Gala
DOME, recently lying at Port Tampa,
was an object of much curiosity. This
grim sea prison annually conveys about
two thousand souls from the land of
the living-the gay French republic
to an enduring death on the Safety
Islands.
The Caladonie is an iron ship OF
44OO tons. For the past ten years it
has been in the employ of the French
government transporting criminals
from France and Algeria to the penal
colonies on the Safety Islands, thirty
miles off the coast of French Guiana.
Four steel cages, each with capac-
ity OF $50, are ready for the male pri-
soners as they come aboard, while
much smaller one, capable OF holding
only thirty-one persons, is sufficient
for the female convicts. This latter
cage is in the aft of the ship, and is
widely separated from the Others. The
women are treated with a great deal
more consideration than the men.
They haveregular berths and are given
better fare. The men sleep in canvas
hammocks, and are given the ordinary
seaman's ration, which is substantial
If not very elaborate.
A very interesting feature and one
horrible to contemplate is the facility

upon the convicts should they attempt
to take possession of the ship. Pipes
are so arranged that were such an at
tempt to be made it would be possible
for the officers of the vessel to scald
every prisoner to death in less time
than it would take to count them.
Captain Dano never had such case
arise on board his ship, but it often
becomes necessary to give them lit
tie steam to quell discomfort. As
rule, however, the eighty guards who
are regularly detailed for service on
board are sufficient to keep the prison
ers quiet.
Should an outbreak at any time
occur signal of alarm calls all hands
to the midship section of the ship, and
then all the ladders leading to the
upper deck of this section are dawn
up, the lower doors barricaded, and
the rightful commanders have q
quickly improvised but strong
fort, which embraces the boiler and
engine room. the arsenal and provi-
sion rooms, the officers headquarters,
the chart and steering rooms, and the
bridge. The convicts cannot come
near enough to scale the walls or to
batter down the doors on account of
the scalding steam, while from the
fortress the guards and crew can shoot
them as they.appear.

This was the origin OF the farm

that said so innocently, when every
body else was tired out and bored,
and didn't know how to while time
away, Suppose we play farm-yard. !"
No one knew how to play farm
yard. "Well," said she, 81 will show
you. All of you sit round the room
in semicircle. :" They did 80.
"Now, 'she continued, 81 will whisper
to each the name of some animal in
the farm-yard. One will be horse,
another will be COW, another will be
sheep, and so on, and when clap
my hands and say Ready all are ex.
pected to make the noise peculiar to
the animal whose name 1 have given
them as loud as they can"
Willy Katy went her rounds. To
the first she said, "You are q horse,

a COW, but you were born tongue.ted.
When 1 say Ready don't you utter
a sound" To the third: "You are
sheep, but when 1 say 'Readyr don't
you utter sound" And so on and
so on.
Katy came to Frank. "Now,
Frank, shewhispered most coaxingly,
''you are to be donkey. When /
cry Ready do you bray like all the
donkeys OF Naples concentrated into
one noisy beast"
She took her place in the middle OF
tho room, and cried out, care you all
ready? One, two, three -ready!' and
clapped her hands. Silence reigned,
when suddenly one young gentleman
burst forth with loud aud excellent
imitation of n donkey's bray. There
was a dead silence in the room save
his own voice. a
Then, finding himself all alone,
Frank suddenly stopped, and gaped
round. Every one was staring at him.
A burst of laughter followed which
fairly made the walls shake. Frank
looked at Katy. Her innocent face
was too much for him, and he, too,
joined in the laugh.
Since then there has been peace.

Indian Cradles.

Wonderful is the care and labor
expended by Indian mothers upon the
cradles for their babies, oar papooses!
The richest embroidery, the most
skillful needlework aud weaving in
grass and wool are lavished upon the
strange cribs in which they carry or
leave their little ones.
Among all the Indian tribes these
cradles are more or less alike, con-
sisting of a hard unyielding board,
upon which the baby is fastened, COW
cred with soft buckskin, and provided
with flaps and pouches in which the
pappoose is developed.
When the baby is put away in tn
cradle, the mother troubles herself
little about it, other than to keep it
within sight or hearing, and, if she he

The SawnsI,.

The sawfsh is found in the greatest
perfection in the tropical seas, al
though it also inhabits the Mediter-
ranean. The weapon from which the
fish derives its name is fat. long
prolongation OF the head, on each
edge of which are set hard tooth-like
projections, curiously inserted into
the bone.
This fish has been known to employ
its saw in the attack of the whale,
burying the apparently inappropriate
weapon to the very root in the body
of the whale, nor are instances want
ing where the saw has been found
firmly imbedded in the hull of ship.
The strength Of the sawfsh is very
great. Captain Wilson gives an iac-
count of the capture of sawtsh
measuring twenty-five feet in length,
and weighing nearly five tons. After
the fish had been entangled in net
for several hours, making violent
efforts to escape. Captain Wilson got
rope firmly fixed round its saw, and
set thirty men to haul at the rope.
The whole thirty could not move it
one inch, nor was it until one hundred
men had been pulling at the rope for
nearly the whole of the day that they
succeeded in dragging it on shore.
Even then itmade such violent strokes
with its saw that they were forced to
fasten strong guy ropes to prevent it
from cutting them to pieces. 1t was
finally disabled. by Spaniard, who
cut through the Joint of the tail.
