amble and resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
Whereas Fort sherman, Idaho, has
been abandoned by the military and
transferred TO the department OF the IN
terror to be disposed Of under the pro-
visions Of the Act of July 5. 1854: and.
Whereas said Fort was established at
the request of our lameRted comrade,
General W. T. sherman. who pro-
nounced IL the most beautiful place he
ever saw. aud is not only beautiful, but
healthy; and,
Whereas THE whole northwest has no
branch of the national soldiers home,
the nearest being at Santa Monica, Cal,
and next nearest at Leavenworth, Kan
sas: and,
Whereas the northwest is rapidly be-
ing settled by large numbers of soldiers
Of the late war. and many will have TO
end their days IN the soldiers home;
therefore be it resolved that:
First II is the duty Of congress to
establish said abandoned fOlt as a
branch OF the national home for dis
aided aud helpless soldiers Of the late
war Of the rebellion, for the convenience
of those who are seeking an asylum in
the home. and also out OF respect to The
founder of the fort, that some sem
blance Of military occupation should be

WEIRD TALE OF THE SEA
TOLD BY A SKIPPER.

Boston (Special) - Captain Joseph
Priest, of ST. George n B., who just
arrived here on the schooner Centennial,
tells thrilling story of an escape from
being destroyed by waterspouts off
Portsmouth the other evening.
One waterspiut, which the captain says
went 800 feet in the air and seemed as
big around as the top of the cabin, hssed
and foamed within so yards OF the
schooner and three other spouts, smaller
in dimensions, but with the same wicked
look which characterized the larger one,
were seen by the crew for nearly IS min
utes. Any one of the four, Captain
Priest said, would have destroyed his
vessel.
Looks like a lighthouse on the
weather bow, sir, shouted the mate on
the lookout.
II knew it could not be lighthouse
out there" said the captain, "and min
ute later, as the dark body moved down
upon US, | realized that il was water
spout 1t seemed to be coming faster
than an express train, and when it was
within so yards of us it was at least 900
feet high, and seemed to be whirling
