MEN MUTINIED.

Advices from Iceland tell Of a mutiny
aboard the Fran. Nansen's old vessel.
which has been dispatched by the Lon
don Geographical society to attempt to
circumnavigate Greenland, says the Co
penhagen correspondent of the New York
journal.
The ship was sent out under command
of Captain Sverdrup, who was Nansen's
companion in his attempt to find,the pole.
Captain Sverdrup's orders We're to coast
along Greenland from west to east. en-
deavoring, if he found it possible, to
complete the circuit.
According to the brief dispatches re-
ceived here Captain Sverdrup's chief lieu
tenant refused to obey orders. The men,
| wearied of their long struggle with dark
ness and piercing cold, took advantage OF
the disagreement TIVE their superiors
and wanted to desert the ship.
SO far as now known the men are still
aboard the Fran. The cause - the feud
TIVE the officers is not known.
The London Geographical society ha
| been apprised of similar advices concern
| ing the expedition under Captain Sverd-
rup. but has learned no details of the

HI U OUT.

New Orleans Times-Democrat: "Ac-
cording to western stories.' said a Tor
mer %ranchman, lone of the faVorlte
amusements of frontier desperadoes is
shooting out the lights I never saw
it done but once. but the incident made
sufficient impression on my mine to last
me for life. 1t was at Benton, a small
camp on the old 'Staked Plain trail. in
northeastern New Mexico. l was stay
ing there over night with a couple of cat
tlemen, and we naturally gravltated to
only resort in town, a sort of COM
bination of bar and gambling house, in a
rough one-story building. containing a
.good-sized single room. The bar was ON
one side and on the other were two or
three Mexican monte tables, over each
Of which were several large coal-oll
lamps in wall brackets. In the center of
| the place was a chandelier containing
three more, altogether giving a good deal
of light. We were sitting at one side
smoking and talking, when in rushed half
| a dozen drunken cowboys, headed by a
well-known ranchman named Bill Wells.
The crowd were out for excitement and
didn't care how they got it. They took
several drinks and then clustered around
one of the monte tables. In a few mo-
ments Wells insisted upon making a bet
over the limit, to which the dealer OBJ
jected.
eff you don't turn for that bet. III
shoot out your blankety-blank lights:
bawled the ranchman.

Mexican dealer, and the words were nc
sooner out of his mouth than Wells and
his gang gulled their ~six-shooters AND
began blazing away at the lamps. About
% or 30 shots were fired and almost a
the outset the place was in complete
darkness. OF course, there was a STAN.
pede, but 1 remember being surprised
that I had heard no crash of glass. Hall
an hour later I went back and found the
place lit up as brightly as ever, Well.
