Break into pou Pound

Some person or persons unknown broke into the livery barn occupied by Dr. Livingston as a veterinary office, on Sunday night and took from a stall where they were enclosed, several dogs which had been impounded by the marshal. The value of the canines was not such as to excite cupidity, but the breaking of the lock to the door of the stable, and entering the building, con- stitutes a rather serious offense.

He has been the past week in Eagle Pass, Texas, where, as special agent of the board, he has been to issue war trade licenses. A newspaper clipping gives an account of a banquet given in honor of MT.

in the bodies of two more women. As we were coming down to the Island, we met the Peterson" on her way to the wreck, but when she saw us, she turned and followed and we informed her of the disaster. She also sent boat ashore, which brought back the body of man. The Cedar" had followed us down also, but did not lower boat at this time. When we left, she had started back short distance, hay ing evidently spied the life-raft which she afterwards reported as having picked up.
 The King & Winge" having left Juneau just as she came in from a trip, and without taking on board the usual stores, it was necessary to come back for fuel, and so we start ed for home. On our way in, we met several boats outbound. among them the Amy" and "Adelphus." :" which latter spoke us. and while we were giving them our news, the "Sitka" came alongside and reported having picked up seven male bodies, just off Middle Point light, on Doug las Island. The fact that these bod ies were found so far from the wreck, would seem to indicate that the disaster took place shortly after the sending of the message which was received by the Cedar" on Friday evening, unless news was re- ceived directly from the. ship after that time.
 The most profound students of world affairs cheer us by protesting to see adequate compensating ad vantages which will come to human ity after the Great War, in spite of the terrible price which will have been paid for them. Heaven grant it may be so. Let us also hope and pray that this frightful local disas- ter will succeed in overcoming the prejudices of those narrow-inland, Congressmen, to whom a danger is non-existent if they cannot feel and see it, and who have repeatedly succeeded in cutting down the ap- propriations which would provide Al aska with adequate guides and safe guards to navigation. The Cedar" has on board. a light-buoy, which was to have been placed on Wander bilt Reef. Alas! that 1t will not be needed. A lantern hung from the top-mast of the Sophia" will serve as an awful and all-sufficient warn ing, for many years to come.

the neighborhood of a dangerous reef, on a dark night, in bowling gale, is an act which calls for con siderable courage, and an exhibition of the highest qualities of seaman ship.
 Suddenly at S:30, every light on the Sophia went out. Thinking of no explanation for this except that the ship was taking water and that the fire room had been aban- dOned, we feared this was the begin ming of the end and accordingly crept up even closer than we were and re doubled the vigilance of the lookout for anything which might come our way from the wreck Afterwards we learned that steam-pipe had burst. From time to time, for a short while, faint light would ap pear on board the ship, flicker for a few moments and then go out !; but apart from that the ship re- mained in inky darkness until morn ing
 At about 10.3O o'clock a steamer appeared, which we had no means of identifying then, but which proved to be the Lighthouse Tender Cedar After cruising about for an hour or so. she left for anchorage behind Benjamin Island. We had no doubt that she had been in wireless com munication with the Sophia" and although we had no means of know ing what had passed. took courage from the fact that she felt justified in leaving the wreck. At about 4:30 she came out again. and cruised about. playing her searchlight in an attempt to pick up the wreck-un- successfully we afterwards learned and went back to harbor This did not affect our captains deter ship.
 As soon as practicable after day light on Friday morning. we got un- der way, prepared to get within hailing distance of the ship. if pos sible. and see whether we could be of any assistance. Coming abeam of the stern of the ship. we found her to be lying in an almost unbeliev- ably upright position; there was not a sign of a list; 1t was exactly as though she were lying on an abso- lutely even keel in a cradle or dry dock Her stern was pointed almost into the wind. and she did not seem to be affected at all by he beating of the waves. To the andsman it looked as though there might be some slight movement, but o the captains practiced eye there
