Mrs. Mckinley Condition.

Washington, June 12.-Mrs. McKin-
ley's Improvement on the whole was
not so manifest yesterday as in the
past few days. Washington was swell
tering under hot wave yesterday, and
1t had its effect ON the White House
patient. She sat up only short time
and then only in bed, propped up on
pillows, whereas Monday she was able
to sit up in rolling chair near the
bed. Still. Notwithstanding this, 1t is
stated that her condition last night
shows a bare improvement, taking the
day and evening as a whole. AT a late
hour last night she was sleeping quiet
ly and comfortably. The greatest ap-
prehension now felt is with reference
to the inflammation of the membra-
nous lining of the heart, but it is as
serted positively that this is yielding
slowly to treatment, as is the case
with the complaint associated with it..

THE BROKE BRIGADE.

When the last string snaps and man goes broke.
He turns to the woods tie sea;
He cuts clean loose from the home bred folk,
While love and honor SO up like smoke.
And life is a gamble and death is joke
And the universe good to
There's brand sort of fate for him;
They may languish carly and late for him,
The bird the wing is mate for him,
And the hawk on the hunt goes free.
There's the brown and gloom OF the forest track.
Where the deer go ghostly by;
There's the starving camp and the dead weight
pack.
The moose hide lodge or the trappers shack,
And VOLTS fierce life in the pine woods black,
And the freedom OF the sky.
There's the plunging deck and the Earring screw
And the oilskins bright with foam.
The stokeholes blaze and its naked crew
Or the topsas drenched with the gulf stream
dew.
And the sharp. salt breath OF the landless blue,
Where a man forgets his home.
We know it. my friends of the 'broke brigade"
Pals Of the plain and sea;
Single handed and unafraid,
The artists OF life and the fools of trade,
But we think know how the game Is played,
And we know where it's best to bel

There is luck that never will stay for US.
But the woods and the waves will make way for

tional tragedy Mt sea that has ever
been reported since the famous mutiny
on the bark Hesper some years ago
were brought last Sunday by the Amer
lean schooner J. A. Campbell, Captain
A. l.. Smith, from Port Blakeley, with
lumber. The mate of the vessel, Adam
Huber, was murdered by the Chinese
cook, and the latter, after terrorizing
the whole crew by holding possession
of the galley for nearly "a hours, dur
ing which 1t was every moment feared
he would set fire to the vessel, was sub
jected to steaming process to bring
him out, but he shot himself rather
than come forth and be captured.
When the crew finally entered the gal
ley, they found the Chinaman's body
literally cooked by steam.
