Once he divided the company and got
up a sham fight, In which one boy broke
his Lex and another spraincd his ankle. The
parents lnterfered at this and Byrne Was
instructed TO train tho minds Of bis pupils

to take us into the woods and put us
through our tvolutiops.
Then came the Civil War, and the school

his former pupils. At the time Of the cap
ture 1t was not known who the prisoner

Mr.. Younghusband was devoted to the

been thoroughly convinced that two could
live cheaper than one. /. was matter Of
economy to marry, be said. so be married.
The Philadelphia Press tells how the theory
work out.
Mr.. Younghusbird's wife was charming
even intellectual, but at the end Of the first
three months, they were heavily In debt,
and there was more 'biliDg" than cooling.
All there talk was of retrenchment and
economy, but 10 practice they went from
bad to worse.

LAvINIA GOES
FOR CRUISE "

Tho little schooner Lavinh sets sail
at ten O'Clock this morning for the
south Seas on what Captain welsbafth
calls a cruise The immediate dealt
nation OF the schooner II painy,u L.
land which lies some 1850 miles so'ili,-
west Of this port In latitude north.
This II one Of the chain OF Islands
which includes Tanning Washington
and Christmas Islands. The island ~
uninhabited but II very fertile and COW
cred with cocoanut trees. 1t is the
cocoanuts that Captain weisbarth says
will be his cargo on the return trim.
His idea Is TO anchor OF the reef and
bring the nuts off In boats
There is plenty of fresh water on the
island and all one has to do to obtain
IL is to sink a barrel In the sand and
IL soon will be full. There is some
guano but most of 1t has been removed
and the remainder is not in sufficient
quantity to pay for a trip Palmyra is
not definitely under the control of any
nation although when it was last occu-
pied 1t was supposed to be British soil.
Captain weisbarth expects to be away
for two months and possibly for ten
weeks. He takes a crew of five men.
The Lavinia took on about two and
one-half tons of rock ballast yesterday
for stiffening and will throw it out
when she gets her cargo The water
tanks We're filled and provisions for
the voyage taken aboard. The schoon-
er has been thoroughly overhauled and
is in first-class condition. A new suit
of sails has been bent with the excep-
ton of the flying jib which will be bent
this morning.
Il am going to cruise around the is
lands and return to Honolulu said
Captain Weisbarth last night IF L
had those bird skins 1 wouldn't bring
them to this port" he continued with
twinkle in his eye. Il know too much
to do that. No, I'm only Cruising
was in with Schlemmer but as l was
not getting any regular wages but had
to risk not getting anything as l did
the last time 1 could not afford to do
that way"
There is some talk that Weisbarth
may command the new schooner that
Schlemmer is to purchase for the Lay
san Island guano trade. There are also
those who are of the opinion that the
captains "cruise" is likely to be a pro-
titable one and that the little schooner
may take on feathers and fly to San
Francisco. However, who knows?
