" TO trade for furs. has arrived,
says the Chicago Inter Ocean.
During her eight months cruise
she captured only one whale, which
produced 2,2OO pounds of bone.
The furs gathered by trading were
sent down some time ago. An
other big whale was killed, but on
account of the ice il was lost. The
mammal, which was the briggest
those on board had ever seen. came
up through one Of the holes in the
ice aud the crew killed it. Before
il could be fastened il sank.
The crews Of the schooners Olga
and Charles HenSen. both vessels
being operated by the same con-
Germ. were unwilling to give up
such a prize. and Chief Engineer
Porter of the Olga, equipped IN a
diving suit offered to 90 down and
secure the whale. He descended
10 the bottom of the Arctic Ocean
twelve times and fastened hooks to
the whale
But when it came to hosting it
to the surface it was found TO be
an impossibility on account of the
ice. The diver found the whale
under a shelf of ice, and the ice
was forty-fve feet in thickness.
The crews exploded six hundred
pounds of powder in an effort to
break the ice. After trying for
eight days they were compelled to
give il up.

THE Matagordo County TRIBUNE

THE Matagordo County Tribune
has promulgated a new version OF
the Ten Commandments, and
following is the 8th of these:
Thou shalt not bear false witness
against the town wherein thou
dwellest; but thou shalt speak well
of il in the ears of all men. For
it is a dirty bird that befouleth its
own nest, and they that do such
things shall be cast into outer
darkness and there make their
beds with the polecats and the
mangey dogs.
