sLowEsT SHIP IN THE WORLD.

Characteristics of a Vessel That Had
Had a Wonderful Career.
The slowest sailing vessel In the
world, the Italian brig Anita s., which
was twice given up as lost on voyages
from South America to Baltimore, re
Gently arrived at Nantes, France. from
Martinique, In the West Indies, after
another unusually long voyage of ten
months, says the Baltimore American.
This vessel has also been 103 days from
Rosario to Santos, 1876 days from Bue-
nos Ayres to Plymouth, 100 days from
Cardiff to Montevideo, 205 days from
Paysandu to Baltimore, 108 days from
Brunswick to Paysandu. 234 days from
Paysandu for Baltimore, and 81 days
from Baltimore to Maranham.
On voyage from South America to
Baltimore the Anita 8. was three
months at sea without a man ON deck
who understood navigation which usu-
ally occupies about fifty days. When
a month out from Montevideo a knot
In one of the planks In the hull under
the water line fell out, and a big leak
was opened. 1t required the. best eff
forts of the crew at the pumps to keep
the vessel free Of water. The cargo
had to be shifted to tilt the vessel and
bring the leak above water, when the
hole was plugged up.
The labors of the mate In the perspir-
Ing hold overheated him. and his sud

deck Wade him Ill. and he was laid up
In his ibunk many months ago with
what seemed to have been pneumonia.
This deprived the vessel of its execu-
tive working officer. Later while Capt
De Rosa was running along the deck
he fell and broke kneecap. He was
obliged to go to his berth This de-
prived the brigantine of her two Off
GERS both Of whom were confined to the
cabin. There was not man among
the crew who understood navigation.
The vessel was sailed by members of
the crew. who consulted the sick Off
GERS In the cabin. AS a result. the yoy-
age was prolonged and the provisions
ran short.
On another occasion the brig was
over 100 days getting from Baltimore
to Brazil She was five days sailing
down the bay The Anita S. is the only
.deep-sea vessel steered by tiller seen
here In years. Her cabin is below deck.
She was recoppered before she sailed
from Baltimore. 1t was then observed
that the Italian oak frames placed In
sano, Italy, in 1875. were still sound
and strong.

The first time went to sea | was
whistlng blithely one day. for the sun
was bright and the breeze was fresh
and the tub was spanking along under
all her canvas. when n sailor warned
me to stop, writes Charles NJ Skinner
In Lipplncott's Magazine. asked why
He said the wind was coming up fast
enough as 1t was and that If kept on
whistling | would be fetching a gale
about their ears. Afterward | learned
that 1t Is permissible to whistle during
q calm. and indeed have known cap
tains and mates to turn toward the
quarter from which they wished the
wind to spring and whistle for some
minutes. But 1t is against all custom
to whistle when the wind is rising, for
that is notice to Davy Jones that you
want more. and he may turn on a bur.
ricane.

A PECULIAR DEATH SENTENCE.
Curious Phraseology Used by New
Mexican Judge.

Curious Phraseology Used by New
Mexican Judge.
Probably the best anecdote of Judge
Benedict is that told relative to his
sentence of death pronounced upon
Jose Maria Martin, who was convicted
of murder In the District Court of Taos
County. New Mexico. under a state Of
facts showing great brutality, and with
absolutely no mitigating circumstances.
says the Taos Cresset. Judge Bene-
dict said;
..Iose Maria Martin. stand up. Jose
Maria Martin, you have been indicted,
tried and convicted by a jury of your
countrymen, of the crime of murder,
and the Court is now about to pass
upon you the dread sentence of the law.
As usual thing 1t is painful duty,
lose Maria Martin, for the Judge Of
court of justice to pronounce upon a
human being the sentence Of death.
There is something horrible about 1t,
and the mind of the Court naturally re-
volts from the performance of such
duty. Happily, however, your case is
relieved of all such unpleasant fea-
lures and the Court takes positive de-
light In sentencing you to death.
You are "A young man. Jose Maria
Martin, apparently of good physical
constitution and robust health. OrdI-
narily you might have looked forward
TO many years of life, and the Court
has no doubt that you have and have
expected to die at green old age; but
you are about to be cut off In conse-
quenee of your own act. Jose Maria
Martin, 1T is now the,spring time. In a
little while the grass will be sprlnglng
40 green In these beautiful valleys, and
on these broad mesas and mountain
sides flowers will be blooming, birds
will be singing their sweet carols and
nature will be putting on her most
attractive aud gorgeous robes, and life
will be pleasant and men will want to
stay; but none of this for you; the
flowers will not bloom for you, Jose
Marie Martin; the birds viii not carol
for you. Jose Miria Martin; when these
things come to gladden the senses Of
men you will be occupying a space
about six by two beneath the sod, and
the green grass aid these beautiful
flowers will be growing above your low

1.-The sentence Of the Court Is that

A STARTLING STORY
TOLD BY A KANSAS CITY NEWS
AGENT.
In an Interview He Relates How He Ac-
complished What Many Others
Have Failed to DO.

Jack Williams OF No. 40l Delaware
street, says the Kansas City, Mo-,
Journal, is well known as an enterprise
ing news agent and thoroughly relia-
BILE man. He had been a sufferer from
kidney trouble and endured much pain
from it until recently. when he tried
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie and with such success that within
a short time he was entirely and per-
manently cured. To reporter he said:
For two years | bad pains in the
back constantly. causing me serious in
convenience. But did not attempt
to do anything for my complaint until
the latter part OF last winter, when
saw an advertisement of DR.. williams
Pink Pills for Pale People and de-
cided to see what they would do for
me. was relieved within one week
after began taking them; the pains
disappeared and so complete was the
cure that have not found it necessary
TO take further treatment nor have /
been troubled at all by the disease
since.
Kidney complaint is an insidiuous
disease. First come almost unnoticed
pains in the back and some slight in
convenience. The pains grow gradual
ly worse and the Inconvenience greater
till finally. If not given medical treat
ment, the person suffers awful torture
and becomes unfit to follow his ordi-
nary occupation. Blood poisoning sets
in, the constitution is wrecked and
death often results.
Mr.. Williams took the one unfailing
remedy and was readily cured within
few weeks. His statement was sworn
to be fore Lionel Noise, notary pub
lie, and the facts above will bear the
most searching investigation. DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
will not only effect a cure in cases
similar TO the one above, but, acting
directly upon the blood and nerves,
are an unfailing specific for such dis
eases as locomotor ataxia, partial paral-
ysis. ST. Vitus' dance. sciatica, neural

There is curious combination tree
In West Stockbridge. Mass. 1t is pri-
marily maple which measures. foot
from the ground, II feet 8 inches in
circumference. Fifteen feet from the
ground there areNone or two birch limbs
growing, and higher up are currant and
raspberry bushes which bear fruit each
year. 1t is not stated whether the
sugar made from its sap has a rasp-
berry flavor, or the birch bark cur
rant color and taste, or the berries a
spicy tang of birch. II is very old and
bids fair to stand for many years

Ewes Apple.

A fruit supposed to bear the mark of
Ewes tooth is one OF the many botanl-
cal curiosities of Ceylon. The tree OH
which 1t grows is known by the signili
cant name of 1.-THE forbidden fruit" or
Ewes apple-tree."
The blossom has a very pleasant
scent, but the really remarkable fea
ture of the tree. the one TO which 1t
owes It's name, is the fruit. 1t is beau
tiful, and hangs from the tree in pc
culiar manner.
Orange on the outside and deep erin
sons within, each fruit has the appear
ance of having had a piece bitten out
of IT. This fact, together with its poi
sonous quality, led the Mohammedans
to represent 1t as the forbidden fruit
of the Garden of Eden, and to warn
against Its noxious proprieties.
The mark upon the fruit is attributed
to Eve. Why the bite of Adam did not
also leave its mark is not known. but
as only one piece seems to be missing
its loss is ascribed to the woman.

A Pot Walloper.

The parliamentary register for 1896
showed that there was then only one
pot walloper in all England. One see
ing the term for the first time might
easily imagine that a pot walloper was
a species of ichthyosaurus or some 9TH
err reptile of a past age. 1t will be dis
covered upon inquiry, however that
the term pot walloper" is literally one
who boils pot and was applied to yot-
ers In certain boroughs of England
where, before the passage of the re-
form bill of 1882. the qualifications for
suffrage was to have boiled fwallopedD
his own pot in the parish for six
months.

Russ House, San Francisco, Has Been
Completely Modernized.

Within the past year there has been a
great demand made by those visiting the
city for accommodations that have sem
blance to their home surroundings Real
izing this want, Colonel J. S. Young of the
Russ House has gone to an expense of over
$4,000 to obtain the desired result. The
first step taken was to tear down the plas-
tering in every room. Over 1000 loads of
old plastering We're earted away before the
work of undermining the house was com.
pleted. From one end of the hotel to the
other has been repapered and reprinted
while new furnishings are to be seen on
every hand. The building now contains
twenty-one suites of rooms which have pri-
Yate bath adjoining and over 800 other
rooms for those who wish for less preten-
tious accommodations The new plumbing
is of the most modern sanitary kind, and
has been inspected by the local health
authorities, who have given their indorse-
ment to it, as being the most complete in
the city. An electric service is now IN use
throughout the building, while every room
is supplied with hot and cold water The
locksmith has visited all the doors and put
on new locks of the most improved pattern.
These locks have a set bolt which can only
be opened from the inside.
The Russ House is famous for the good
table it sets. In fact, many of the business
men who have offices in the insurance dis
trict are to be seen at the noon hour in the
dining room. A visit to the kitchen shows
that none of the Oriental races are EN-
ployed, and there is cleanliness that
speaks well for the thoroughness of the
management. This part of the hotel is so
situated that il is by itself, and there is no
chance of the odor of cooking being found
outside its doors. In fact, the Russ House
is one of the most modern hotels in the city
and the latest to be thoroughly renovated
Ii Is an ideal place at which to stop. Every
thing is congenial, and one feels at home
the moment he passes the front doors.-S :.
