His One Daily Meal.

Dr. George Fordyce, the celebrated anatomist and lecturer OH chemistry, used te. eat one meal day and one meal only, but it was q mighty one, washed down with liberal drafts of wine and beer. At i o'clock every day he used to enter q certain chophouse and take his seat at q table always re- served for him. X silver tankard con- taining quart ef strong ale, q full bottle of port and q quarter of a pint of brandy were placed Eefore him imme- diately.
 The moment the waiter announced the doctors arrival t..e cook put a pound and half of rlmp steak on the fire, and to while away the time until the steak should be properly bio:led the waiter brought the doctor some tempting nersel like q broiled chicken or a plate of fish. When he had eaten this. Dr. Fordyce drank half of his brandy and then began on his steak. While eating the steak he drank the tankard of ale and after that the rest of the brandy. The waiter then un. corked the bottle of port. and the doc tor proceeded slowly to enjoy it until it was all soao. He spent an hour and q half daily at his one meal and after it returned home to give his lectures oil chemistry. which are still quoted as classics of that science. He ate nothing else until the next cay. when he re- turned at tie same hour 10 the same choplouSe for t.le same sort of a meal. Dr. Fordyce lived 10 be siXtysiX years old and kept up his orc meal custom to the last.

The Weight of Ice.

The iceInan and the coalman are often suspected of giving short weights maybe oftener suspected than guilty; maybe oftener guilty than suspected. The means of testing the weight of from tenf to thirty pounds of ice are not always.at hand in the house. but a close estimate of the weight can be reached by multiplying together the length, breadth and thickness of the block in inches and dividing the prod uct by thirty. This will give very closely tie weight in pounds. Thus, if q block of ice is 10 by 10 by 9. the prod
 uct is 900. and this divided by thirty gives thirty pounds as the correct

MUT|NOUS CREW
ON THE F0RM0SA
British Bark Has Excit-
ing Trip Around the
Horn.

SAN DIEGO, Nov. s.-The British bark
Formosa arrived this afternoon from
Antwerp. after a passage Of only III days
one of the best ever made around the
Horn TO this coast. Captain II. F. Fret
wurst came in with one man in irons and
about half Of the crew In a state border
ing on mutiny. The man in irons is NJ.
Osterman. and he has been shackled for
two weeks because of an attempt on the
captains life after a quarrel with the
first officer, in which the captain inter-
fered.
The sailor was using rough and insult
ing language TO the mate at the culmlna-
ton of several days Of mutinous conduct
on the part Of the men before the mast,
and CAPTAIN Fretwurst ordered him TO
desist Osterman turned with an oath,
picked up an iron Delaying pin and threw
IL at the captain, missing that officer s
a mark on the woodwork of the vessel
sufficiently deep to indicate that IL would
have been fatal blow II 1t had landed.
With the help of the other officers Os-
terman was secured and put into irons.
The crew continued in a state bordering
on mutiny, and for that reason Osterman
was kept in irons until this port was
reached. AS soon as anchor was dropped
in the stream Captain Fretwurst. after
making his report to the consignees, has
tened to the office of British Vice Consul
Allen to lodge complaint against Oster-
there may be hearing Of the charges
before the Consul here and fixing OF the
punishment.
Captain Fretwurst is of the opinion that
the cause of the trouble is TO be found
be discharged with their full pay on this
coast. for the reason that they can get
better pay by remaining here or signing
for the return trip on some other vessel,
as sailors are very much in demand on
the coast.
