bound for the north on a fishing cruise.
morning of September Goth, when about
$50 miles north of Cape Flattery, the
schooner was caught in the teeth of a
furious gale. Huge seas swept over the
little vessel from bow to stern, carrying
away the boats, matches and everything
that was moveable on deck.
Captain Jonas Nordhasel, of the
schooner, was caught by large wave
and carried overheard and drowned. H.
Lipse, one of the crew, was also washed
overheard, and several of his ribs were
broken by the force of the waves as they
beat upon him. He was rescued, how
ever, by his shipmates after a hard
struggle,
With only two men to manage her, the
Capella now began to drift northward
at the mercy of wind and waves. The
mainmast had in the meantime snapped
off close to the deck, and the foremast
threatened to go every minute. All the
fresh water and provisions had been de-
stroyed by the salt water, and Tor six
days the crew subsisted on canned
fruit and vegeta bles, which was all that
was left. For water they drank the
juice of the canned fruit, and what they
managed to squeeze from tomatoes.
On the morning of the seventh day
the men met some Indians, from whom
they obtained water. They then con-
tinued to drift northward until o'clock
on the morning of the 9th, when in
Seaforth channel they sighted the
steamer Farallon coming toward them,
southwark bound. AS the steamer
approached, one of the men got out the
fog born, and it's dismal notes reached
the ears of Captain Roberts. The Faral-
lon was promptly brought up alongside
the dlsmantled schooner, and the men
taken aboard. The schooner WAS taken
in tow, and Captain Roberts headed for
Bella Bella, the nearest port. Here the
Capella was beached, and, leaving one
of the crew in charge, the Farallon re-
sumed her voyage.
Captain Nordhasel leaves widow and
four children, who reside at Ballard. He
was part owner of the schooner.

Rings for the Ears.

It is said that earrings are coming in again. but few women nowadays will be found willing to have their ears pierced and distgured with pendants. The custom of wearing earrings has come down from the earliest time Among the Athenlans 1t was sign of nobility to have the ears pierced.
 Among the Phoenicians the wearing of earrings was badge of seryitude, the same custom obtaining with the Hebrews. The latter people said when Eye was expelled from Paradise her ears were bored as sign of slavery.
 The Egyptian women wore bangle hoops of gold in their ears, which were regarded as the wearer's choicest pos sessions and were parted from only under dlrest stress. The golden calf was supposed to have been made en- tirely from the earrings of the people.
 Among the Arabs the expression ito have ring in ones cars In synon- ymous with ito be q slave" and to the present day m Arab who has been conquered by another places ring through his ear as token.
 The wearing of earrings was so gen. eral in Rome and the jewels were so heavy that there were professionals known as ear-healers, who tended the ears of ladies who had torn or injured the lobes with the weight of the pend ants. At one time Roman men wore rings in their ears. while In Greece the children wore q ring in the right ear only.

The effect of the hydraulic motor, which Is now used for the purpose of removing masses of earth. well-nigh passes belief. says the Montreal Star. A stream of water issuing from pipe six inches in diameter, with fall be hind It of three hundred and seventy five feet, will carry away solid rock weighing a ton or more to a distance of fifty or one hundred feet The ve- locity of the stream Is terrific. and the column of water projected Is so solid that If crowbar or other heavy ob- ject be thrust against 1t, the Impinging object will be hurled considerable dis tance. By this stream of water q man would be instantly killed if he came into contact with 1t. even at distance of two hundred feet At two hundred feet from the nozzle a six-inch stream, with 375-foot fall, projecting moment arily against the trunk of a tree, will in q second denude 1t of the heaviest bark as cleanly as If 1t had been cut with an ax. Whenever such stream Is turned against bank, 1t cuts and burrows 1t In every direction, hollowing out great caves and causing tons of earth to melt and fall, and be washed away in the sluices.

LiverpooI and Slave Trade.

The great wealth Of thc merchants of London and Bristol enabled them Co en- Joy practical monopoly of Che Afri- rln slave trade for Il long period prior To Liverpool having any share ln it says Gomer Williams History of the Liverpool Iriyateers." Liverpool nd- yenturrrs with Il small capital were unable to equip vessels and purchase goods specially adapted to the Afri- c;tn market and of no use outside of that market nor could they afford to await the uncertain results of round voyages sometimes prolonged to more than year and subject to terrible dan gers unknown to any other description of trading adventures. Early in the eighteenth century, however. q sue cessful riyalship with Bristol In ex. porting provisions, coarse checks and silk handkerchiefs of Manchester make to the West Indies and the continent of America eventually enabled the merchants of Liverpool to participate in the more lucrative slave traffic.
 While Liverpool obtained from this competition a sudden accession to her commerce which filled her warehouses with sugar, rum and other West India produce, the trade of Bristol to the West Indies declined. The checks of Manchester. carried in Liverpool ships. busted from that market the German, French and Scotch osnaburgs exported from Bristol.

Rice Is. no doubt, the most extensive ly used article of food the world over Hundreds of millions of people chiefly subsist on 1t, and its consumption is constantly increasing. It Is the prin- cipal diet of at least one-third of the human race. forming the chief food of the native populations of India, Chi- na, Japan, Madagascar, many parts of Africa, and, in fact. of almost all East ern nations The Burmese and Siam, ese are the greatest consumers of it A Malay laborer gets through flfty-siy pounds monthly; Burmese or Siam ese, forty-six pounds in the same pc rtod.

He had on hand in Chicago and in the Northwest some 1G.WU.00O bushels of grain. and as then the market began taking down ward course he was forced to still keep buying wheat In order to maintain prices.
 The causes contributing to the down ward tendency of prices were tncreas- ezl shipments from other grain growing countries to European markets, the re. selling in this country of wheat pre- yiously purchased by foreigners, the unloading on the American markets of wheat which other speculators had on hand. and the Government report to the effect that the wheat crop of the present year would exceed that of last year by 200,@O,000 bushels These conditions proved too much for Letter He had lined up for battle royal against the world and just like the
