has set in this connection Is an excellent
one for other towns 70 adopt. The

New Bedford vessels in the Pacific ob- tained 2,550 barrels in Japanese waters, and the only other vessel in that ocean, the Josephine of Boston, made the catch of three hundred and seventy barrels on the west coast of South America.
 Three steamers of San Francisco are wintering at Herschel Island and vicini- ty the Balaena, the Fearless and the NarWhal, against two steamers at the same points in 1898
 There are only eight whalers lying in eastern ports. Of these four may be sent out to cruise in the Atlantic, one will go to Hudson bay, and as to the re- maining three it is doubtful if they are ever again employed in the business.
 There are now sixteen vessels of all kinds cruising in the North and South Atlantic, mostly for sperm oil and about one-half of this number may go well south in pursuit of right whales. The schooner Robert s. Graham has gone to Desolation for sea elephant, un- der command of Captain B. D. Cleave- land formerly of the Swallow.

Success of All Fleets Exceeded Expec- tations.
 The last year was a fairly satisfacto- ry one for those who have continued in the whaling business, says the Vineyard Gazette, the success attending the ves- sels engaged in both kinds of whaling having been good, and in several in- stances exceedingly so Prices, while not as high as were expected and de- sired, were well sustained throughout the year. There were three disasters during the year, as follows: The bark Horatio of New Bedford, at Caroline Is- lands; the bark Mermaid of San Fran cisco, in the Arctic, and the schooner Enola c. of Boston, at Falkland Is- lands.
 The total reduction in the tonnage the last year was nine hundred and sixty four tons, and it is very probable still further reduction will be made the com ing year.

] found to be correct by reference to
 newspaper files. Unlike Mccartney Mrs. Brady was clever in many ways, but generally the person with the phe- nomenally chronological memory has no special ability along other lines.
 | It has been said in explanation of this l that the person who dwells sufficiently | in the past to charge his mind with it's details is not fit to cope with the pres- ent This is the view held in his period
 of greatest activity by the venerable John l. Blair who built the first line of
 railroad west of the Mississippi and who once, when asked about some ra- cent transaction, referred to the records,
 Saying that whenever he got the facts concerning anything down in black and
 wlslte, he dismissed them immediately,
 having no room for them in his mind. It was largely so with Jay Gould, but
 Gould more perfectly than almost any
 one else remembered exactly where the
 records bearing upon any given transae-
 tion were filed, once when the conduct
 of the Western Union, or some other of
 his properties, was being examined into
 by a congress committee he failed ut
 terly to recall the details concerning
 transactions of vast Importance. It was
 assumed by the newspapers and the
 public, at first. that Gould only slammed forgetfulness, but time showed otherwise. Soon after he had
 told the committee he couldn't remem-
 ber," the Gould clerks were set to get
 ting out old records. Mr. Gould was able not only to state in what book each record hequired could be found but also on what page of the book, yet, curiously enough, he couldn't give any details worth mentioning. His memory, it will be observed, had been trained, no doubt unconsciously, to hold exactly what would be needed most in an emergency. Asked about the size of certain check
 which changed hands when the Western Union company was created by consol- idation, he said he really couldn't re- member whether it was for five or ten million dollars, and it was assumed that he didn't wish to tell, it being absurd, apparently, for him really to forget such an important detail. Later, from the records, he secured the information and presented it to the committee The check was only transfer of funds, inn portant when signed, but not afterward.
 The late Cornelius Vanderbilt may have had first-class, all-round memo "; certainly he exceled surprisingly in one direction. He was interested in more organizations managed by boards of directors, probably, than any other man in New York. At all events the porations-business, religious and philanthropic-to which he belonged were so numerous that it would have taxed most men to keep track of them. But that was an easy thing for him. Apparently, he never kept any memo randa of the meeting time of any organ- ization with which he was connected, but he never forgot and. though his duties as head of the Vanderbilt system were enough to warrant his remaining away from many of his directors meet ings, he made it point to be present at every one.-New York Press.
