weather Bureau in a Lawsuit.

The wea Their bureau has got to be
witness in a law suit Claims amount
ing to 81, 600. 600 or more have been filed
against the owners of the steamship
Portland. which went to wreck in the
November blizzard and was lost off
the Massachusetts coast The company
has anticipated these claims by appeal
ing to United States courts for a decree
limiting the liability of the stockholders
to the par value of their stock In
other words, they are willing to pay
damages for loss of life and cargo up
TO the value of the vessel, but object
to being held liable for three or four
times as much as the capital of the
company. Involved in the application
is the question whether the managers
are not liable for criminal negligence
also in sending the steamer to sea in
the face of a warning from the weather
bureau 1t can be clearly shown that
the usual forecast of the weather was
furnished at the Office of the company
On the morning Of the day on which the
steamer sailed. and that it Indicated
foul weather and a severe gale. 1t will
also be shown that storm signals were
flying from several places within view
of officers of the steamShip and that the
captain of the Portland personally re-
ceived warning against venturfng out
in the face of the gale, but did not heed
them and with the consent OF his en-
pIoyers carried 1S5 souls to destruction

Where the flowers had human names,
Methought, in fancy seeming,
They disported as sQuireS and danes.

He has put the idea into pictures that
are as fauItIeSS in their art as they
are quaint and clever in conception
Each flower is represented in some
graceful human form corresponding
with its name. and each page is daiutiIy
cOlored TO correspond with the flowers.
The designs are marked by the happy
union of grace and whirnsicality that
are already familiar to admirers of Mr..
Cranes work. but the exquisite SIM

eoloriug bring out these qualities in a.
way perhaps never surpassed in any CT
