The Weird Effect Of Phosphoresesnee on

Ship 10 Berlng Sea.
Il have often heard OF the wonder
ful phosphorescence OF Southern seas
remarked n traveller from the North,
"and / have seen some pretty fair
samples IN the Atlantic betwcea sew
York and English ports, but I'D noi
know Il prevailed to any extent IN
Northern waters until during tlle past
summer.
"In August last / was on board the
revenue cutter McCulloch, I'm the Be
ring sea, about 60 degrees north latl-
tude. bound north, when one night
about 10 O'Clock / happened 10 go on
deck, and / was almost frightened by
the sight Of the sea. The wind was
blowing sharp enough TO raise the
white caps, and the whole sea looked
as II It were lighted from its depths
by a million arc lights, throwing their
white rays upward and under the ny
ing foam. The hollows Of the waves
were dark, were dark, but every crest
that broke showered and sparkled as
If It were filled with light From the
sides Of the ship great rolls of broken
white light fell away, and she left IL
broad pathway Of silyery foam as far
back as the eye could reach
"But about this hour was the most
striking display. Here 1t was as If the
ship were ploughlng through the sea
Of white light, and as the water was
thrown back from her prov it fell in
glittering piles Of light upon the dark
surface beyond, and was driven far
down below, lighting the depths as II

the brilliant white turmoil of the wa

afloat upon some silver sea, and
really uncanny feeling took possession
of me. The white ship was lighted by
the phOsphorescence Of the waters, sC
that as high up as the deck there was
a pale, weird white, that made one fee
rs If the Flying Dutchmen' wer'
abroad upon the sea and had passed b!
us. The masts lowered in ashy gra!
above the decks, and every rope an(
line stood out distinctly in the light
but cast no shadows. 1t was all a
ghostly as If we had gone up agains
the real thing, and it was a positive re
lief to get back into the ward room
where there was something more hu
man. I don't know how long 1t lasted
but when l went to bed at II o'clock
could still see the silver shinini
through the air port in my stateroom.

pinos were dispersed into the noun
tains. Col, Lockett took command
when Gen. Lawton fell.
Maj. Gen. Henry W. Lawton will go
down to history as the "Hero of Ell
Caney." 1t was LaWton, commanding
the Second Division of the Fifth Army
Corps before Santiago, who was in the
thick of the fighting preceding the cap
ture of San Juan Hill. 1t was des-
perate, hard fight, the capture OF FL
Caney, which was possibly the strong
est Spanish outpost, and strategically
of great Importance. Lawton was Just
the man to lead such an expedition and
strike the first blow which was to break
the backbone of the Spaniard's defence.
How well he succeeded ia now mat
ter of history.
Lawton was not only brilliant SOL
der, but he was picturesque figure in
the military world. He ct cd six
feet three inches in his stockings. He
weighed 2l0 pounds, every ounce of it
bone, sinew aud grit.
He was but fifty-ive years old and as
athletic as a youth of eighteen. He
could go without food, drink or sleep
longer than any other officer in the
the United States army. He was as big
OF heart as he was broad of shoulder.
He had terrific temper when reused,
but when calm he was as gentle as a
| child. He was not a talker. Facts
about himself and his exploits could be
obtained only by a corkscrewing pro-
cess.
MANILA, Dec. 20.-A troop of Fourth
cavairy, under Capt. Rogers, is bring
ing General Lawton's body to Manila
AT Mariquina they will be joined by
three other troops. Lswton was killed
while about to speak to Capt. Brecken
ridge who was wouned, and being car
RED off on litter. Just as he reached
breckenridge side Lawton threw W
both hands and fell, blood squirting
from his mouth. He had been sho
though the heart.

pie funeral service over the remains o

DEATH OF GEN. LAYTON.

MANILA, Dec. 19.-Full particulars
of the death of Gen. Lawton reached
here late this afternoon.
He left here Monday night having
returned from his northern operations
on Saturday, to lead an expedition
through Mariquina Valley, which has
been an insurgent stronghold through
out the war. The valley has several
times been invaded but never held by
the Americans. Gen. Geronimo was
supposed to have there the largest Or
ganlzed force north of Manila, and
Gen. Otis wished to garrison Mari
quina.
San Mateo was attacked at eight
o'clock Tuesday morning, and three
hours fight ensued. The battle resulted
in but few casualties on the American
side, apart from the death of Gen.
Lawton, but the attack was difficult
because OF the natural defences of the
town.
Gen. Lawton was walking along the
firing line, within 300 yards of "a small
sharpshoOters' trench, conspicuous in
the big, white helmet he always wore
and light yellow rain coat. He was
also easily distinguished because OF his
commanding stature. The sharp
shooters directed several close shots
which clipped the grass near. His
staff officers called Gen. Lawton's at
tention to the danger he was in but he
oply laughed with his usual contempt
for bullets. Suddenly he exclaime d
81 am shot," clenched his hands in a
desperate attempt to stand erect, and
fell into the arms of staff officer.
Orderies rushed across the field for
the surgeons, who dashed up immedi-
ately, but their efforts were useless.
The body was taken to a clump OF
bushes and laid upon a stretcher, the
familiar white helmet covering the face
of the dead general.
Almost at this moment the cheers OF
the American troops rushing into San
Mateo were mingliDg with the rifle
volleys. After the 6ght six stalwart
cavalrymen forded the river TO the
town, carrying the litter on their
shoulders, the staff preceding with the
colors and cavalry escort following.
The troops filed bare headed through
the building where the body lay and
many tear fell from the eyes of men
WuO uau lOHS 4OIlONtu luG intrepid
Lawton. The entire command was
stricken with grief as though each man
had suffered personal loss.
Owing to the condition of The coun-
try which is impa, sable, so far as We.
hicles are concerned, the remains could
not be brought to Manila to-day. Mrs.
Lawton and the children are living in
a government residence formerly Oc,
cupied by Spanish general.
San MateO lies between a high
mountain behind and broad, shalO v
stream in front, with wide sand bars,
which the insurgent trenches aud the
buildings commanded, The Amer
leans were compelled to ford the river
under fire. 1t was while they were
lying in the rice fields and voleying
across, preparatory 10 passing the
stream, that Gen. Lawton was shot.
All except the officers were behind
cover. A staff officer was wounded
anout the same time and one Other
officer and seven men were wounded.
