Capt. John Irving. who was master Of Che wrecked steamer Islander since she was built In iSsS and until she was laid up for repairs in ls9s after the Klondikc rush sees many reasons to exonerate Capt. Foot from the blame which has been laid Co him for the manner ln which he handled his boat before striking the lee berg and while the boat was sinking.
 It is almost impossible after night Co see the fee hcrgs that float out Of Taku Inlet and drift about with the currents that flow ln various directions in th" sheet Of water at the functions of Taku Inlet. Gastlncaux and other channels that radiate from that locality. The ice becomes lndlstinguishable from the water. Some of these icebergs are on a level with thc sea and are or such a spreading shape that they may lie In n huge mas slvc bulk far down In the water There win be but little give Co such mass of lee. 10 would, perhaps, sink. hut its con- cusslon with boat would be nearly as great as though it were solid rock.
 The bulkhcnd (forwardD contains % large air chamber which ls entirely sep- arated from the rest Of the boat. Smash Ing hole in this bulkhead would not have caused thc sinking Of the boat, bee cause the water could not go beyond the partition abaft this bulkhcad nor above the deck overhead.
 There is a tight chamber abaft the bulkhoad and forward Of Che engine room-bctwccn Che two-whlch is also water tight excepting that there is @ hatchway on the main deck.
 Had the Islander struck a rock she would have remained fast upon u and hung by thc bow.
 Such on accident once happened Go the boat while she was running between Vic- torla and Vancouver. Al that time the weight at Che stern must have held Che bow up SO that the rock did not strike the bottom until tho keel had passed above 1t Co just between the bulkhcad and Che compartment abaft Both Of the chambers were therefore badly punctur- cd and the ship would have certainly sunk In Che water had it not been that it was fastened Co the rock
 Capt Foot of course. knew the boat oi which he was master. When advised that Che boat while under hoadway. struck Che submerged Iceberg. Che knowl- edge Of thls alrtlght bulkhead would naturally lead him Go believe that there could be no immediate danger, and that be had time Co safely beach Che boat.
 But che results Of Che wreck show that the concusslon submerged the berg after Inc bulkhcad had been broken, and prob ably the boat was struck where it had been hit by the rock it had grounded upon between Vancouver and Victoria. As the boat passed on. the Iceberg or foe must have risen and smashed hole in Che bottom Of the boiler room. The bursting of the boiler carries out this theory.

Town to Honor Cliimpanzee.

The municipal council Of the French
town of Grenoble has recently voted a
large sum of money for the purpose of
erecting bronze statue to the famous
chimpanzee, named Charlemagne, who
not long ago died there. For nine years
the chimpanzee, which was brought
to Grenoble by an African explorer,
had enjoyed the freedom of the town,
being privileged to enter practically
every house and to help himself to any
thing he fancied in fruit and vegetable
shops. The chief reason Of the towns
great regard for the chimpanzee was
that about five years ago he rescued
child from drowning in well. Char
lemagne had seen everything, and for
him to swing himself over the top of
the we'll was the work of a moment.
Descending by the rope used for the
buckets, he grasped the child and
quickly carried her back to her friends,
climbing up by the rope. Charlemagne
increased his popularity by spending
two hours in the children's hospital of
the town, playing in different wards
and amusing the children who were all
very fond of him. In such respect was
this chimpanzee held that when he
died the inhabitants Of the town fol-
lowed his remains to the grave.
