Captain Peter Carey. He was born in
'45-ifty years of age. He was a most
daring and successful seal and whale
fisher In 1888 he commanded the steam
Sealer, Sea Unicorn. Of Dundee. He
had then had several successful voy-
ages in succession, and in the follow
ing year. 1884, he retired After that
he Travelled for some years. and finally
he bought a small place called Wood
mans Lee, near Forest Row. in Sussex.
There he has lived for six years. and
there he died a week ago today.
There were some most singular

points about the man In ordinary life,
he was Il strict Puritan silent,
gloomy fellow. His household consist
ed of his wife, his daughter, aged
twenty, and two female servants.
These last We're continually chang
ing, for it was never a very CHEEKY
situation, and sometimes it became
past all bearing The man was an in
termittent drunkard, and when he had
the fit on him he was a perfect fiend.
He has been known to drive his wife
and daughter out of doors in the mid
die of the night and fog them through
the park until the whole village out
side the gates was aroused by their
screams.
He was summoned once for a saw
age assault upon the old vicar, who
had called upon him TO demonstrate
with him upon his conduct. IN short,
Mr.. Holmes, you would go far before
You found more dangerous man than
Peter Carey, and have heard that he
bore the same character when he com
manded his ship. He was known in
the trade as Black Peter, and the name
was given him, not only on account of
Eis swarthy features and the color of
lis huge beard, but for the humours
which We're the terror of all around
him I need not say that he was
lOathed and avoided by every one of
his neighbors, and that I have not

his terrible end.
You must have read in the account
Of the inquest about the mans cabin.
Mr.. Holmes. but perhaps your friend
here has not heard Of it. He had built
himself a wooden Outhouse-he always
called it the 'cabin'-a few hundred
yards from his house, and it was here
that he slept every night. 1t was q
little. single roomed hut. sixteen feet
by ten. He kept the key in his pocket,
made his own bed, cleaned it himself.
and allowed no other foot to cross the
threshold. There are small windows
on each side, which were covered by
curtains and never opened. one of
these windows was turned towards the
high road, and waen the light burned
in it at night the folk used to point il
out to each other and wonder what
Black Peter was doing in there. That's
the window, Mr.. Holmes, which gave
us one of the few bits of positive evil
denCe that came out at the inquest.

proclamation of the car Of Russia are
the Films, whose numbers in this coun-
try now exceed 100000, and who reside
in large numbers in Ashtabula.
An interview with Mr.. August Ed

the leading Finnish newspapers in
America, brought several facts to light.
Mr.. Edwards is q recognized leader
among his countrymen in the United

tive authority on subjects pertaining
to Finland. He believes the car has.
been misled in the past through such
men as. the late Gov. Gen. Bobrikoff,
and that from now on the Films will
fare better at the hands of Russia than
in the past.

FUN IN MOVING PLATFORM.
Sort of Device Gives
Patron an Exceedingly En-
ticing Journey.

New York.-The Introduction OF so
many amusement parks in the suburbs
of large cities and also the demand for
fresh novelties at seaside resorts to
amuse and catch the pennies of those
on pleasure bent have opened up a
wide field for the ingenious inventor.
1t has been the aim of the managers
of these places to supply this demand
and they seem to have been successful,
as such devices as Down and Out"
Loop the-Loop" and "The Circle
Race" have been very good drawing
cards. 1t seems that the more danger
there is attached to these novelties the
more they are patronized.
A resident of COney Island, N. Y,
where any number Of these devices
can be found, has invented the one
shown in the illustration. IT. is an
improvement on the circle race and
is as novel in it's features. Around a
stationary pavilion slightly elevated
above the ground are built number
of platforms, preferably circular in
shape, the steps being arranged in de-
scending order from the pavilion, each
platform overlapping the next lower,

DEFENDS SLAUGHTER
GRAND DUKE SAYS MASSACRE
WAS NECESSARY.
In an Interview Vladimir Brands St..
Petersburg Killing as Needed
Precaution to Save City
from the Mob.

St. Petersburg Duke Vladi-
mir, uncle of Emperor Nicholas and
commander Of the imperial guard,
granted an interview to the corre-
spondent at the dukes palace in Quay
de La Cour, adjoining the winter pal
ace. The correspondent was received
in the grand dukes private study.
The duke wore a simple blue I'M
dress blouse over uniform trousers.
Could the vaulted ceiling have been
suddenly lowered and the spacious
apartment contracted to the limits of
q tent and the big mahogany desk con-
verified into a camp table, the grand
duke would have presented the picture
of hard working general on field of
battle. Everything about the apart
ment, with reports heaped up on the
table before him, bespoke the man of
work. The study might well be mis-
taken for an Office of some busy Amer
lean railway manager.
The grand duke is man of perhaps
IS years, veteran in appearance as
we'll as in fact, for he won his spurs
and the Cross of st. George rs years
ago in the plains before Plevna. He
is big-framed and dark-visaged and
has iron gray hair, and resembles more
his brother, Alexander ILL.,, than his
nephew, Emperor Nicholas. Although
his face and frame show marks of re-
cent illness, the nervous energy he dis
plays gives the impression of man
of force and action. His stern features
soften as he talks, lending to his coun-
tenance charm suggesting the sim
gularly gentle side to his nature which
makes him beloved in his home and
among his family and friends.
"You must remember" said the
grand duke, II am a grand duke, and
a subject of the emperor. AS such I
am extremely loyal to him, and I am
Russian from the crown of my head
to the tip of my toes,'' accompany
ing the words with sweeping ges-
ture. What information can I give
you?"

Natures Superfluities.

According to q recent report Dr.
Alice Neville Vowe Johnson, a Lon.
don medical supervisor, has removed
from the Threats of the 100 schoolgirls
in her care every trace Of tonsils. The
Chicago health department bulletin
commends this action and joins in the
declaration Of war on the tonsil. Ton.
sils. in the departments view, serve
practically as hotel for microbes, in
which they are carefully propagated
until ready to make war upon the
system. "Quinsy sore throat" is due
to such germs, and from this nursery
there are sent forth the microbes
which cause diphtheria, pneumonia,
tuberculosis, gangrene of the lungs,
inflammation Of the heart membranes
and other fatal maladies. IF this dis
gushing category be not enough to Sc
cure the deep damnation and the talk
ing off of every tonsil in every young
throat, it may be added that it is the
commonest cause Of mouth breathing
and mental dullness among children"
the city's physicians assert. Tonsil-
less and appendices, the child of to-
day is thought to stand a much bet
ter chance than formerly Of escaping
the myriad ills which beset youth.
Meantime the tonsil and the appendix
may be imagined as holding an indig-
nation meeting, at which the question
is asked: If was so soon to be done
for, what on earth was I begun for?"

Mormonism Outdone

Ordinary divorce is not sufficiently
sensational to be the fashionable
vogue. Fer awhile divorced couples
followed the fashion of immediate re-
turn into new matrimonial partner
ships, but the latest divorce fad is for
the man and woman to marry over
again." This, observes the New York
World, is a novelty which will doubt
less find imitators among the newly
rich. In the last case of this kind the
woman made proper terms with her
husband in requiring him to pay $780,
600 to the man who in East side par.
lance would be called her gentleman
friend" This man and his wife were
divorced, and he preferred marrying
another previously married woman
rather than the one who already owed
him $4,000. When one reads the &C.
counts Of these kaleidoscope Affairs
the Mormons seem decent and respect
able by comparison.
