MADAME HAD THE CLOCK.
But She Was Indignant when Ae-

Was Betrayed.

1t is d well-knoWn fact that the Gus

prietor OF furnishing his rooms with
costly pieces Of brie-a-0rac had % be
abandoned owing 10 the peculiar fond
ness which his guests evineed for those
pretty kLickkHaeks, frequently going
SO far as 10 carry them OF in their
trunks. When several suites of rooms
(Whose Price per week would lead one
TO suppose that anyone who could al
ford to rent them could also acquire

stripped Of their objects of 'bigotry
and virtue" the proprietor began 70

Perhaps that was why, when a GER

ing at the hotel Tor several weeks.
asked for her bill and announced her
intention of leaving next day, the sus-
picious Boniface watched her depart
ure with some uneasiness. He is very
well off in this worlds goods and the
loss of bric-a-brac did not seriously
cripple lis income, but he is pessimis-
tic and revengeful these days. When
the dame had been handed into her cab
by the tall. brass-buttoned and knee
breeched doorman. Boniface visited
her rooms. He then took a cab and fol-
lowed the dame to the station. He has
a genial manner, and he asked madame
in his most persuasive tones to restore
TO him the small but costly clock that
she had doubtless mistaken in a hurry
Of packing for one OF her own trinkets.
Madame was very indignant. She de-
manded by what right the hotel man
dared to insult her. She attempted tu
board her train. She spoke threaten
ingly of the police. The upshot of the
matter was that she agreed to go back
TO the hotel and open her trunks, so
that the proprietor could satisfy him
self that his odious suspicion was
groundless. She did this simply to
avoid a scene which he seemed bound
to make. Afterward he would hear
from her lawyer whether or not he
could insult lady with impunity.
Back they went TO the hotel. and the
contents of the trunks were laid bare
to the vulgar gaze of the proprietor
and his head clerk. No clock was found.
and. flushed and triumphant, madame
was about to leave the room, when sud
denly, clear and sweet as cathedral
chimes, 12 strokes rang out from some
part of madame's befrilled costume
The expression of CONSERVATION de-
picted upon the fair pilferer's face was
said to be as pathetic as it was anus

plunder from its hiding place and re-
stored it to its owner the latter apollo

LIABILITY FOR SEA HORROR.
ISL, Was Convicted of Forcing
Passengers on.

Since the terrible fate that befell
the passengers on board the French
steamer La Bourgogne much specula.
ton has arisen as to the liability Of
the French crew under the charges
brought against them in connection
with the sinking of the ship. 1t is well
settled that the law in England and
the United States is adverse 10 theerew
The leading American case is that Of
the people against Holmes, who was
tried in this city by the brilliant law.
yer, David Paul Brown, as prosecuting
| attorney. The story IS an interesting
one. The ship William Brown sank off
Nova Scotia in March. 1s4l. The pas.
sengers and crew overloaded the boats
After drifting for several days storm
came up. making it evident that the
overloaded boat which Holmes COM
manded would be swamped and all lost
Under the circumstances he gave the
order to tighten the boat. Twelve pas.
sepgers were thrown overheard, and
two sisters voluntarily jumped into the
sea. The remainder Of the passengers
in the boat and the crew were saved
and brought TO Philadelphia. Holmes
was indicted and tried, in his defense
the above circumstances were shown
and additional evidence admitted that
Holmes was one of the most active in
saving the passengers and getting
them into the boat; that at the risk
of his life he had personally saved sew
eral. Nevertheless Holmes was con-
victed, and the United States court
sustained the conviction, on the
ground that the contract of the sailor
bound him to use every means in his
power, even to the sacrifice of his own
life, to deliver each passenger at the
port for which he shipped
The point of jurisdiction was raised,
when it was held that the flag con
verted the ship and her apparel, includ-
ing the boats, into national territory,
As to acts done in the waters of the
high seas, il was further held that as
TO the same acts done between pas
sengers on the high seas different
rule prevailed; in the absence of inter-
national law as to them they owed no
duty to one another; they were, from
the moment of leaving the ship, re-
mitted to their national rights, and the
law of self-preseryation prevailed.
Much sympathy Throughout the coun-
try was manifested for Holmes in this
case from its purely doctrinal law, and
Its being case OF first impression, lis
sentence was commuted to imprison-
nent. After IS months he was released
but the principle that the sailor owed
duty to passengers even to the sac
rifiee of his own life, was established.
