Makes Another Start.

San Francisco.-News was received
from Australia that the ship Canada
had made another start on her memoir
able voyage to Manila.
The Canada left Norfolk, Va, with a
load of coal for the United States war
ships in Manila bay on August 27,
1899. Approaching the Leeuwins, bad
weather was encountered, which was
followed by dead calm. A water
spout came sailing along and took the
miZzenmast out of the ship. Early in
May of this year the Canada put into
Melbourne, Australia, to refit AS soon
as she docked the coal was found to
be on fire and the vessel had to be
flooded. On May % the Canada sailed
once more. On June 26 she was towed
into Freemantle, Australia. partially
dismasted and in a generally dilapi-
dated condition.

Rev. Brown Got a Rich Wife.

Toledo (O) Rev. c. o. Brown, whose
sensational church trial stirred San
Francisco a few years ago, is in the
city with Mrs. Brown No. 2. His first
wife petitioned for divorce in Chicago
about two months ago. The style of
the case was MARY Brown VS.. Charles
Brown" and the grounds for separa-
ton were alleged cruelty. Just after
the case came up for adjudication,
however, the pleadings were SO
changed that they read, "Mary Brown
VS.. Charles o. Brown" and the charge
was changed from cruelty to adultery.
The divorce was granted, and Rev.
Brown, on August 6, married Mrs.
Mary Malloy, wealthy and we'll
known lady. Brown came here a few
days ago to attend the annual reunion
of the Third Ohio cavalry, of which he
is a member. The couple are stopping
at the Jefferson Hotel, and will return
to Chicago in few days. He has given
up the ministry, for the present at
least So quietly was the divorce Sc
cured and the second marriage per-
formed that it was never made public
until after the visit to this city.

Ten Best Poems.

The late Charles A. Dana liked good
poetry and was conceded to be a first
class judge of the literary value of
verse. He said that the best ten short
poems in the English language are
Shakspeare's sonnet, "When in Dis
grace" Burns "Bannockburny" Blake's
1.-THE Tiger" Scott's 'Pibroch of Don
aid Dhu," Tennyson's "Bugle Song"
Milton's "When l Consider" Campbelps s
'Hohenlinden," Emerson's "Brahma,"
Thackeray's "At the Church Gate" and
Kipling's "Gunga Din"
This is interesting merely as the esti-
mate Of an excellent judge of good lit
erature, but it will hardly find accept
ance as the view of the average reader.
1t may be added also that James Whit
comb Riley, who certainly deserves to
rank pretty close to the ten immortals
named by Mr.. Dana, says that his ia
vorite poem, the one which he would
place before all others in English, is a
fugitive bit, Brave Love-" which has
been attributed to Mary Kyle Dallas
and other writer's, both in England and
America.-St. Louis Republic.

Under Wafer.

Strange acquaintances are to be made
under water. III. Phelps Whitmarsh,
who for time adopted the calling of
pearl-fsher in Australian waters, tells
this story of meeting a submarine mon
ster:
] It was a muddy day, and everything
in consequence looked blurred and eX-
.aggerated. In the yellow distance 1
saw an immense dark object moving
slowly toward me. AS it came nearer,
I made out central body with several
great arms or feelers waving rhythmic
ally. My heart was in my mouth.
I felt sure it was an octopus. Then,
when was about to stir up the mud at
my feet, to avoid being seen, I discov-
cred that the enemy was nothing more
than a fellow-diver. The feelers had
imagined were his arms, legs and lines.
! A shadowy giant about twelve feet
high, with huge hands and head like
a small barrel, was approaching, He
walked slowly, his heavy boots raising
the mud behind him like a cloud of
dust, and his great central eye cleaned
darkly. Although l knew him to be a
man, it was with difficulty that 1 re-

sch1ey's Rescue of Lieut.. Gree1y.

1O0ScuO O1 OrG01Ys
In 1871, while lieutenant-com-
mander on the United States ship Ben
icia, on the Asiatic station, Commodore
w. S. Schley took part in an attack on
the forces defending the fort on the
,Salee River, in Korea" says L. A. Coo
Ilidge, in McClure's, wherein the Ko-
;reans were taught a lesson in regard
to the power of the United States that
they have not forgotten. Schley's SER
vices in rescuing the survivors of Gree
ly's Arctic expedition in 1884 are a
matter of history. He was chosen for
the work because his fearlessness, SELF
possession and determination were rec
ognized as just the qualities required
for the emergency. He left his desk In
the department at Washington on
days notice, set out with the expedi-
ton, sailed straight to the Polar re-
gions and arrived at Cape Sabine in
the nick of time. Had he tarried twen-
ty-four hours on the way, he would
have been too late, for Lieut.. Greely
and his six companions were at the
point of death from starvation and cold.
He was in command of the Baltimore
in the harbor of Valparaiso in October,
1891, when the sailors of his ship were
set on by Chilian mob ashore; one
Yankee bluejacket was killed, and five
others were badly hurt Throughout
the trying times which followed, Schley
carried himself with a dignity and cour-
age that commanded the admiration Of
the country"

KILLED BY A SHOCK
San Diego Engineer Receives $500 Volts

San Diego, Aug. 19.-W. B. McCurdy,
assistant engineer of the electric light
plant here. was found dead in the
power house soon after o'clock this
morning. He had received a shock Of
about $500 volts. Just how the acct
dent occurred will never be known.
His hat was lying by the dynamo and
his body was twenty feet away. A
burned spot on his hand showed where
he had touched the pole, the shock
throwing him over another machine
standing near. In his fight through
the air he apparently disarranged the
gearing, for the engine ran away and
burned out the dynamo AS a result
the city is without street lights to-
night McCurdy was 26 years old and
leaves a widow.

An Awful B1under.

At q Rosenthal recital in Seattle Q
young pianist Of considerable social
prominence sat in q stage box and toll
lowed the performance by means of
the scores of the several morceaux
which composed the programme. She
was evidently deeply interested, and
stopped at intervals to exchange notes
with companion who sat behind her.
All went beautifully until the artist
came to the last piece, tremendously
heavy Liszt In the midst of an intri-
cate passage, the lady, much excited,
rose in her box, holding out the roll OF
music toward the stage. '"That's
wrong! That's wrong" she cried.

there."-San Francisco Wave.

Murder Most Foul.

Phoenix (Ariz.)-A message just re-

of the horrible murder of w. S. Moi
fatt, at Harrisburg last Saturday. San
tiago Ortiz, the murderer, found Mof-
fatt asleep, and beat him to death with
a steel drill, chopping his head to
pieces. The murder was discovered
Sunday morning, and posse captured

miles this side of Harrisburg. His
horse had given out. Five hundred
and fifty dollars in cash and checks
were found on him. The sheriff is en-

CAMCE

Sufferers from this horrible malady
nearly always inherit it-not necessarily
from the parents, but may be from some
remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs
through several generations. This deadly
poison may lay dormant in the blood for
years, or until you reach middle life, then
the first little sore or ulcer makes its ap-
pearance a swollen gland in the
breast, or some other part of the body,
gives the first warning.
To cure Cancer thoroughly and perma-
nently all the poisonous virus must be

A man who goes to sea, will lie as

Every mans backbone is stiff enough

A dog does not brush his teeth, or

has!
A mans grumbling is disagreeable,

up in it.
When boy finds out what the rules

for breaking them.
You have made fair success Of your
domestic affairs If you are on speaking
terms with all Of your kin.
When any one over 80 gets an invita-
tion to picnic, 1t means that some one
very much older is getting it up.
Some girls at 80 know nothing Of life
except what they learned at school
from notices in the copy books.
A big city has advantages" but
poor people can't take advantage Of
them. And most people are poor.
Promising men are so numerous that
it is great pleasure to meet man
who has actually done something.
If a man is sensible enough to refuse
to take sides in dispute, he is too SEN
sible to make satisfactory friend.
Unless kin drop in every day to ex-
press their disapproval of you, they are
treating you worse than a stranger.
II don't enjoy my meals any MORE"
an old fellow said to-day; I ate up all

The average girls idea of keeping
posted on current events is to know to-
day what store has a special sale to-
morrow.
! Nearly every woman believes that
her husband makes a great deal of
money, and loses it playing poker with
wicked men.
If you do your duty, as your friends
interpret it, you become terribly indig-

against them.
! When boy has thing he is proud
of, his pleasure is greatly enhanced if
there is some one around to whom he
can ''show" it.
When a woman hears that two peo-

she says: Maybe they just thought
they were in love-"
When children are very fond of their

the mother was too wise to make a

A woman can whip her own children
without consulting the neighbors, but
she should ask their permission when
