The Rudder for March.

The March number of The Rudder ia about
double the usual size. Ii is the "fitting-out''
number, and contains numerous illustra-
tions, in addition to those of yachts for sale
"a long list, in which all ella ses are includ-
ed. Two full pages are devoted to ''Snap shots
taken on voyage from New York to Port
Elizabeth, S. A., in the Yankee bark c. P.
Dixon" These include deck views the
bark at anchor, head on, etc. The captain
and mate are shown taking observations,
and their portly forms would indicate that
the Dixon's larder was well supplied. On
following pages are three snap shots Illus
trating the partial dismasting of the clipper
ship Title E. Starbuck and such a maze of
broken spars, torn canvas and tangled rig
gng is rarely seen by landsrnan. 1t would
seem almost an impossi blity to repair the
damage thus wrought but the men are al
ready at work and would soon have the
clipper all atannto again. Both these ves-
sells have down-east shippers. 1t would be
impossible to enumerate all the good things
in this March Rudder. No yachtsman can
afford to be without it. Rudder Publishing

In the county of Escambia in Alabama
IS the little town of Flomaton and there
lives Mrs. Mollie Grimes. She was a
good wife and mother but several wears
ago she found her health slipping away
from her. She realized that this meant
the inevitable nervousness and irritabi1itv
that would surely lose for her the affec-
tlon OF her children and husband, and
that as her health declined discord and
misery would appear in her home. She
was titled with the loving motherlv in
stlnct, but two lniscarriages in succession
almost broke her heart She had almost
lost hope when the clouds rolled away
ana the light Of health and happiness
returned.

FUGITIVE PRESIDENT.
IGnacic Andradc Fices From Cara
cas- 20 Save His Life.

NEW YORK, Oct. A cable dis
patch has been received in this city
from Caracas to the effect that President.
Ignacio Andrade has engaged pas sage
for himself and family on the Red d.
line steamer Philadelphia, which leaves
La Gua%ara on the 10th for Ponce, Porto
Rico, and New York. Tt is generally
believed he will go to Ponce.
If this dispatch is authentic it m cans
that President Andrade regards himself
defeated by the insurgents under Gen.
Cipriano Castro and VIII leave the coun-
try to save himself. Latest adv css re-
ceived here say that Gen. Castro and his
advance guard are at Ell Valie, which is
only three miles from Caracas. Gen. Cas-
tro, however, has declared against enter
ing the capital as a battle there would
entail the loss of lives of many disinter-
ested persons. He wishes, therefore, to en-
gage the government troops just outside
the city. The latter, however, show 10
disposition to meet the rebels in de-
cisive battle.
The revolutionary forces have been
augmented by the followers of Gen. Jose
Manuel Hernandez, who is now in prison
in Caracas Thus far the latter has
fought independently OF the Castro
forces. Gen. Samuel Acosta, one OF
Gen. Hernandez's leading officers, has
been appointed military governor of the
state of Carabobc, which has fallen into
rebel hands. Gen. Acosta is the person
who killed President Cfespo in battle.
There are now said to be&nearly 2,O'0
political prisoners in Caracas ne
news of insurgent success, it is asserted,
has done injury to the credit of the
present government. \ local firm re-
ceived a cable order last week from
the Venezuelan government for 1850 RI
fes, 100000 cartridges and one HoteHk S.
rapid firing gun. The firm, it is de-
lclared, refused to make the shipment I'M
less they received pay before deiiTery
