The main rigging lanyards parted from

and the mainmast broke off clean three
feet above the deck. II
After two days of watchfulness, with

an Ia second mast was built up. Out or
a small spar used for a mast on a sail
boat a mizzenmast was made.
Captain Engstom then decided to turn
about and make for New York again, but

Jury rigging he could not tack2fa n was
forced to run beofre the wind. Finally
the vessel got started on the course for
New York. Four steamers were spoken
on the way blu tthe Sehepp's crew de-

1t was found that New York could not
be made because of the easterly winds, so
the rig was headed for Delawae Break

without any assistance, and there the

young nephew of Emperor Francis JOS
eph. On the death of the crown prince
the right of succession to the throne
passed to the emperor's eldest brother
and father of the present heir presulnp-
tive, the Archduke Charles Louis, but
he was an old man then, and died a few
wears after without ever experiencing the
joy of being a king. The Archduke Fer
dinand is now thirty-six years of age,
and though he has been frequently re-
ported engaged is still unmarried.
King Humbert of Italy does not find In
his only son and heir a man OF an IRON
frame and a masterful will ike his. or
an entirely different calibre is the young
Prince of Naples, a slight, delicate telloW.
just thirty, who has so delivered hlmself
to the ~obsequious f1attery and the ca]ole-
ments of the foreigners in Naples and
Rome that he has weakened his frame by
destination, and bids fair to have a very
short lease of life, indeed. His condition
is even more serious than is limited at IN
the Italian news of the day.
The prince, three years ago., married
Princess Helena of Montenegro, but there
are no children and should the fates de-
cree that there shall be no male heir born
into this family the right of succession
will pass to the house of Aosta.
If the remaining royal families are
carefully investigated, a strange fact
may be noted--that here is, with one ex-
ception, no heir to a throne in europe
who is strong and lusty and gives prom
ise of a vigorous reign after the present
ruler passes away. The possible excep-
ton is Prince Royal Gustavus OF Sweden,
a man of forty-one years of age, the son
Of King Oscar H., who married Princess
Victoria of Baden, a granddaughter OF
famous old William 1. of Germany, and
who has developed no vices and acquired
no maladies. This prince is an energetic
athletic young man, has literary tastes
and will in all likelihood enjoy a long life
Fol years the king of the Helenes
George L., has been the victim of a dis
ease of the kidneys, a hereditary com.
plant, and he has unsuccessfully visited
Aix-les-Bains for treatment. There i!

The fan is made to fold. The handle

ivory daintily carved. Inserted into the
end of each is the feather of a swan, at
the end of which is the gorgeous tip of a
peacock feather, altogether forming an
attractively beautifully blending of ma

piece of work in the construction of the
fan lies in the swan feathers. Woven into
these slender feathers are %varigated
threads, forming fantastic figuring of
flowers, personages and leaves. In the
center of the right side of the fan is
woven among the feathers a picture rep

Prof. Aswell spoke in his usual

A Serious Cutting ARRAY,

Thursday morning about half past
six O'Clock at the new market house
of Ode Richard, a difficulty occurred
between Jos. Bouriacgue proprietor
Veranda Hotel and Theodule Theriot
proprietor of the Central Hotel in
which Bouriacque was severely cut
on the left arm and right hand, with
a pocket knife welded by Theriot.
The difficulty has its origin in what
Mr.. Bouriacgue considered improper
solicitation; of trade by Mr.. Theriot.
This Theriot. denied and from words
the men soon came to blows upon
being separated the two men renewed
the dispute with the result above
stated. BoHriacgue bhd very pro-
fusely from his wounds which we're
long ugly looking slashes. He was
taken to his home where his wounds
we're stitched up by Drs. r. ]. Young
aud C. j. Edward and at last ac-
counts was resting comparatively
easy. Theriot was arrested by Sher-
if HILBERT and afterwards admitted
to bail in the sun Of five hundred
dollars.
