Following the report to Governor
Guild OF the court Of inquiry, which in
yestigated the conditions aboard the
Massachusetts nautical training ship
Enterprise and the announcement OF
the nautical training school commits
sioners that they would discharge the
ringleaders of the mutiny, twelve ca
diets were dismissed from the school.
The commissioners withheld the names
of those who had been discharged out
of consideration for their parents.
In letter to the governor the COM
mission said: "As this revolt was a
most aggravated and unjustifiable case
of mutinous conduct the leaders will
be dismissed from the school"
Governor Guild In reply 10 the COM
missioners approved their action in the
matter.
II seems that the street commission
ers cannot accept the offer of $250O
year for five years for a lease OF the
space Immediately in front Of the old
court house ON Court street near Scol-
lay Square, because 1t isn't,under their
control, and that under the law the su-
perintendent of public buildings, who
has control Of that property, cannot
charge for the rental Of it, 1t will be
interesting to see now what will be
done.
few days ago a citizen OF Amster-
dam with his frau arrived at this port
TO settle in the West. He was the first
first passenger ashore, but an hour lat
er he was waving goodbye to his wife
from the deck OF the next outgoing
steamer. Ii was not a case Of deser-
tion, or change Of mind. He had sim
ply forgotten something and went
home TO get II. The good wife had sent
a certain snuffboX to the storage ware
house, and In the snuffbox was a dia-
mond ring which the good man had
placed there for safe keeping. II was
not until the shores of America were
In sight this ring was thought OF, and
then! Well, there's nothing like the
energy Of Dutchman. He will get the
jewel and be over again before the GUS
toms can turn round.
A new source of supply for Holsters
has been discovered by Capt Lowry of
the fishing schooner j. II. Atwood OF
Southport, Me-, who came in to Com
mercial wharf one morning recently
with $500 Holsters caught on Cashs
bank This is the first time in the an.
nails of the fishing industry that lob
sters have been caught on the banks
The trip was in the nature of an ex-
pertinent by Capt. Lowry. He was well
rewarded, but when the crew had
made eight hauls with 100 traps they
had the vessel loaded.
The traps were set about 100 miles
from Cape Elizabeth In six fathoms Of
water. The bottom was rocky, with
also considerable kelp. The Holsters
were all large ones.
The catch was quickly disposed Of
and for the time spent the cruise was
one Of the most profitable that Capt.
Lowry has made in long time.
Fishing on Cashs bank is extremely
hazardous as the location is directly
In the path of ocean lines and there is
usually much fog in the vicinity.
The news OF the catch quickly spread
among the fishermen and many cap
tains expressed their intention OF try
Ing their luck In the new grounds.
For the first time in 2S years Ben
Franklin and Josiah Quincy have just
had their faces washed
For over a quarter OF a century they
have stood In front of City Hall and
accumulated dust and dirt OF every de-
scription. Ben had a bird nest under
his arm, which was the favorite resort
OF the municipal sparrows, and Josh"
Quincy, Bostons great mayor and
statesman, despite his dignity OF pos
ture, looked somewhat detected in his
coat of dirt.
According to Superintendent Of Pub
lie Buildings Nolan, man named EN~
ans was awarded the contract for wash
ing the statue OF the two great men.
Mr.. Evans was not around and his men
did not know how much he might get
for the job but II was conservatively
estimated that the bill would be in the
vicinity of $50. The bill will be pre-
sented TO the Art Commission.
