THE PACKET STEAMBOAT.
She Grinds Through Sand, StumbIes
Over Rocks and Has a Hard
Time of 1t.

L wish L could make it plain how
wonderful being is the steamboat.
She has romance clinging to her
every timber, and the, blood of the
thoroughbred in her veins. Into her
go the engines of dead-and-gone river
racers, and the treasured relics
sweet-toned bells, paintings, bits of
brica-brac-Of famous steamers of
the past. Cabins, worthy because of
beauty or staunchness descend from
generation to generation. Her name,
oftentimes, stands for wife, daughter,
old-time sweetheart, lifelong friend,
writes Willis Gibson in Scribner's.
Nob1y she does her work. AS a
rule, the packet steamboat travels at
least $4,000 miles in year. Landing,
she does not float smoothly into a
deepwater slip as does the ocean
liner; she has to grind through sand,
stumble over rocks, buffet against
banks and wharves. In time of storm
she does not have miles of space in
which to maneuver; she is cooped up
at the winds mercy, with nine-tenths
OF her bulk above water, in a channel
sometimes not wide enough to turn
about in.
Her powers of resistance are re-
markable. When [ likened to a ghost
that st. Louis packet which | first
boarded at ST. Paul, there was more
than mere fancy in the words. Thus
far in her lifetime she had been once
wrecked in cyclone, once sunk by a
drawbridge, once sunk upon a snag-
in that last accident losing almost her
entire bottom. Thrice the river had
viciously wounded her, but it had not
killed her-yet.

Literally hundreds of thousands of

THRIVE ON PETROLEUM..
Jersey Mosquitoes Are Growing Fat
ON the Liquid That Was to
Exterminate Them.

People living on the meadow of Jer-
sey and Long Island have been marveling
this year over the tremendous size and
the sickness and we'll fed appearance
of the mosquitoes. The secret may now
be said to be out. It's the OIL. The mos
uuitoes have grown to like the old. They
are waxing sinewy, sleek and songful
ON the oil that the scientists have, at
great expense, been flooding the mos
nuito infested ponds with since the be-
ginning of spring.
Mr.. William c. Whitney has spent
something like $4,000 in oiling up the
: ponds down his way on Long island,
with the result that the Westbury mos
ouitoes this year look like humming
birds. and are as sanguinary and COD
fdent as bolo hurting Moros. Old time
residents down on the mosquito breed
ing Jersey marsh lands and rivers de-
clare that the mosquitoes are such an
adaptable lot that they've already dis
covered a method of distilling the poi
sonous elements from the oil and reject
ing them, leaving only the wholesome,
fattening elements wherewith to regale
themselves and take on 1esh. They go
farther than this, these mosquito wise
Jerseyites, and declare that some of the
oil fed mosquitoes pump the poisonous
ingredients that they have collected
from the OIL in addition to their own in
lection venom, into the persons of their
human victims All of which is more or
less cheerful

Master of CircumS s tances.

The Somai Mad Mullah has a
knowledge of the discoveries of the
English which he makes use of as
special miracles" Of his own. An
English paper gives this instance:
An English man-of-war was sent
to demonstrate off the coast, and at
night threw a searchlight on the jun
gle-coyered mountain. Abdullah was
hiding there, and knowing from his
visits to Alden what il was that his
followers hailed as new star, told
them that the light was seeking him.
When the electric rays actually
flooded his encampment, he cried in
triumph, ''Will you deny now that I
am under the eye of God?"
The Somali fell on their knees, beat
the earth with their foreheads, and
replied: Thou art truly the elect,
the chosen, the mullah, the master!
Our goods, our existence belong to
thee. We place ourselves entirely
at the disposition of thy will"
The result was noted few weeks
later in the news of the rising Of
some 1000 of these Somai.

would not be quite frank if he did
not admit that the young reporters
activity was not purely professional.
From the very moment that he be-
held Miriam Wright, the mystery had
possessed for him fascination that
would not be put aside. SO far as Her.
bert Wright was concerned, it cannot
be said that Irving was Accordingly

thing else which caused him to be-

cent. 1t was the intangible influence
OF Miriam Wright that enlisted him
ardently in the case, and that inten-
slfled his eagerness over each new de-
velopment. There was something
about her loneliness that appealed to
him, and from the very first her
beauty had stirred him as he had
never been stirred before. His inter-
est IN the case gave him an excuse
for seeing her frequently, and as he
was man of intelligence and of
many attractive qualities, his visits
were always acceptable. There were
features in the Wright case which
were rather repulsive to him. The
character of the murdered man was
such that he would have felt very
much like saying that his taking off
was hardly worth Investigating with
view OF Furnishing the murderer.
But 1T seemed at first to involve the
punishment of an innocent man. and
that appealed to Irving's sense of fair
play In the next place it introduced
into his life the elment that trans
figured and transforms the world.
A friendship soon became cemented
between himself and Miriam. Per-
haps at first each was a novelty to
the other, and therein Law the charm
Miriam's life had been narrow and
retrospective. She knew the world
only through the medium of books.
She seldom received or paid visits,
and she had obtained her education
at the hands of a governess; and had
she been cast upon a desert isle her
idle life could hardly have" been more
restricted. She was so unlike the
other women whom Irving knew that
he was attracted to her from the
start
AT first his visits were taken up
with the latest news about Herbert's
case, the value of the testimony, the
probable action of the jury, the evil
dence that could be introduced for
Herbert, and various other features
of the case. But there came time
when this topic was pretty nearly
exhausted. All the events in Herbert's
life had been reviewed, his DISPOSE
ton had been analysed and every
probable possibility and possible
probability in connection with the
case had been canvassed. Up to this
time their acquaintance had been
based on their joint concern for Mi
RAMS brother, but when everything
had been said about him and his af-
fairs that could be said, they began
to talk about themselves; and like
the timid skater venturing rather
warily upon the new ice, they were
decidedly shy at first; but when they
found that the ice would hold them,
as it were, they became drawer and
more daring. Confidence begat conf
dence. The acquaintance ripened
apace, and it was not very long be-
fore each of them was aware of the
tender touch of an unseen influence.
When Christmas came, Irving spent
a good deal of his time at the Wright
place. He was received on a footing
of a friend, and he did much in a
quiet, unobtrusive way to make the
holidays less sad for Miriam and her
mother.
