chimeless Sabbaths Of Newcastle's past
life: how bars had been shot in her
streets, and the Red Indian, and OF late
years, wild turkeys, water ducks; the
frightened deer; the graveyard rabbit: the
sly fox; the mad-dog; the slack pistols in
the hands of the drinking gentleman, &c.
&C.. and then he affirmed that no man
had paid for such fun yet.
He plead an ignorance of Newcastle
law if not her traditions, and closed his
speech by saying he was tempted TO shoot
EN- because they came so low, but they
proved to be very high at last. His fine
was $50.

THE VALUE OF THE ENQUIRER.

mOrandum of Facts Connected
With Her Purchase by the Navy.
memorandum has been furnished by
the Navy Department setting out the facts
connected with the purchase and sale Of
the yacht Enquirer by the department.
which makes 1t appear that the inspection
board originally reported that. owing to
the fact that the yacht had only sixteen
tons coal capacity, the board had not re-
garded 1t worth while to go to Buffalo to
inspect her. The price asked then was
100000.
The assistant secretary of the navy ap-
proved the boards recommendation in this
matter. Later on, however, Lieut. Com
ported that the boat was in good condi-
ton, and was 1.-The best boat Of her class
we have SEEM He said she could be had
for $4,000. The owner would also increase
that the inspection board examined the
boat and reported that she was a good
light-draft vessel and speedy, and recon-
mended her purchase at $4,000. Admiral
Erben, in charge of the reserve navy at
New York. thereupon made proposition to
the owner Of the Enquirer to pay $4,000 for
the boat If she were equipped with many
things enumerated and given more coal
capacity.
The terms were accepted and the Enqui-
rer passed into possession of the Navy De-
partment. Secretary Long regards the
price paid as war price, but lair consid-
ering the times. AS to her subsequent ap-
praisal for sale to the. War Department
at $4,000, it is pointed out that the price
fixed was the minimum figure to be &C
copied; not the price which might be real
lied. Then the Enquirer was much worn
in machinery and had been completely
stripped at the navy yard of every bit Of
her valuable equipment. including dynamos.
boats. anchors and chains and everything
movable, greatly reducing her value.
